years from now,”

the three years would reveal “the
lasting intentions of the Soviet
Union and answer the question
whether they, at that future time,
will join in strengthening the U.N.

the tragic road toward the horrors
of a third world war.”

Four Arrested In
N. Y. Taxi Strike
NEW YORK. (/P) — Four men
were arrested early Saturday in
the first flareup of violence in a
city-wide taxicab strike that has
immobilized at least 90 per cent of
New York’s swarming taxi fleet.
Police said the four, all striking
cab drivers, caused a non-striking
driver in Brooklyn to wreck his
cab. They were charged with ma
licious mischief. One also was
booked on an assault charge.
Three thousand extra police
manned emergency posts to keep
the trickle of non-striking cabs
moving through heavily guarded
streets.
Cab operators and John L.
Lewis’ Taxi Workers Organizing
Committee are deadlocked over
economic demands and union rec
ognition.
The Nenana Ice Pool closed Sat
urday night at midnight with close
to $5000.00 going into the contest
from Nome. More tickets were
sold this year than last year it has
been estimated.
Manager Avery of Nenana stat
ed that it was estimated the Pool
would be over $200,000 this year.
Romania Seizes
All Drug Stores
BUCHAREST, UP> — Romania
began seizing all drug stores,
chemists’ dispensing shops and
some types of perfume shops Sat
urday in a program to nationalize
the entire retail drug trade.
Guards were placed at all shops
without notice during the early
morning hours. When the owners
arrived, the guards moved in and
took over.
The seizures took place through
out the country. Apparently the
move was decided on at a cabinet
meeting Friday.
