And the districts must decide whether they will employ their own engineering staff or contract the work to private firms, this question having split the district wide open for months and never being settled. Judge Marks reminded the directors that differences between District 1 (Santa Ana) and Districts 2 and 3 (northern and western Orange county) as to the time when the sanitation district should take over control of the JOS system, after purchasing it, had developed from a small to a big difference, and was holding up the completion of the two principal agreements for acquisition and operation. He recommended that the executive committee of the districts, consisting of the chairmen, meet to decide on what they would accept as completed agreements, and a meeting of the committee was thereupon called for next Friday evening.

Convention of New York Communists Blasts U.S. Policies as War-Making NEW YORK (P) — American communists drew a miniature "iron curtain" around their convention sessions today after opening rallies at which U.S. policies were blasted as war-making. Approximately 2600 delegates—at three widely separated rallies last night—cheered and applauded as speakers denounced American re-armament plans and the presence of U.S. troops in Asia. The biggest gathering—about 1500 persons—was at the Rock-land Palace in upper Manhattan. About 600 attended a Brooklyn rally in the Aperion Manor. Another 500 met at Hunts Point Palace in the Bronx. Where today's closed sessions were to be held was a party secret. Leaders would give no information, except to say reports would be issued at the end of each day's work. The convention runs through Saturday. Simon W. Gerson, the party's legislative director, told the Brooklyn rally: "The American people today are asking questions. It is our role to answer them. We don't believe in the inevitability of the Third World War. The war-mongers must be curbed." At the Manhattan meeting, Carl Winter, Michigan State party chairman, said the convention was being held despite "attempts to incite violence against our party." Winter, one of the 11 top red leaders appealing their conviction for conspiring to advocate forcible overthrow of the government, said the convention will seek to forge a "common front of all forces in the country for peace." Benjamin J. Davis, negro former city councilman, Harlem party chairman and one of the convicted 11, told the Manhattan rally that "insane atom maniacs" are trying to get the U.S. into a third world war. "American imperialists can no longer kick around the darker people of the world," he said. "It gives us double pride that the American imperialists suffered one of the greatest political setbacks ever from" the Koreans and Chinese—"the very people they hate and despise." Bernadette Doyle, a California party member who said she received 800,000 votes as an unsuccessful candidate for the state school board in the last election. Korean unit pushed the enemy back several thousand yards in that sector. MacArthur said elements of the Chinese communist Third Field Army, consisting of the 20th, 26th and 27th Armies and elements of the 24th, 30th and 32nd Armies were on the U.S. 10th Corps perimeter in northeast Korea in mid-December. "The projection of Chinese communist units to positions immediately in the rear of the present line of contact is based on the assumption that the enemy will continue to employ these same units," MacArthur said. "However, other Chinese communist units reportedly have crossed the border from Manchuria. While not fully confirmed, the 55th, 56th, 67th and 68th (armies) and elements of the 37th and 44th Chinese communists armies are reported now as being in Korea, or on the move thereto." Draft Continued from Page 1 strength after being inducted into the Federal army. Another regular Army division will be formed in late spring or early next summer. This, it was learned, will be an armored outfit. Currently the Army has only one armored division, the 2nd which has been based at Camp Hood, Tex. An 18,000-man infantry division is a self-contained fighting unit, with supporting weapons, including tanks and artillery. A regimental team is a small-sized infantry division, usually consisting of about 5000 men. Depending on the mission assigned to it, it may include elements of infantry, artillery and armor, in varying proportions. "American imperialists can no longer kick around the darker people of the world," he said. "It gives us double pride that the American imperialists suffered one of the greatest political setbacks ever from" the Koreans and Chinese—"the very people they hate and despise." Bernadette Doyle, a California party member who said she received 600,000 votes as an unsuccessful candidate for the state school board in the last election, said that "California is sick and tired of a school system full of loyalty oaths." Chilling (Continued From Page 3) 50 were forecast for the plains states and near the freezing mark for the north central region. The South also had more sub-freezing weather today as the cold air held in the Gulf and South Atlantic states. Florida escaped the chilly breezes. The biting cold prompted utilities to cut fuel gas supplies to some industrial users in Ohio, Michigan and Pennsylvania. Cuts up to 90 per cent were ordered for 171 companies in Central Ohio and supplies were curtailed to 700 plants in the Cleveland area. New York state was expecting its fourth straight day of sub-zero cold. Readings were below zero in Ohio again today but not as low as yesterday's —24 in Salem and —23 in Bucyrus. The lowest mark in New York yesterday was 35 below in Big Moose in the Central Adirondacks. The extreme cold cracked a power line in upstate New York, leaving several thousand homes in 12 Onondaga and Oswego county communities without heat or light for five hours.

Beebe of the firm C Melveny and Myers, bond attorneys, be employed as co-sultant on questioned points in these agreements, since that firm must pass on the legality of the bond proceedings. Judge Marks first suggested that Beebe be employed to rewrite the agreement, the fee being $25 per hour. But Mayor Allen Mandy said the directors have confidence in Judge's ability to write the contracts, and suggested the arrangement for a consultant, only on questioned points. Administrative Officer Nelson M. Launer reported that Los Angeles county sanitation districts have drafted a number of amendments to the state sanitation district act, affecting sewage recamation, which is not of interest here, and also the method of representation on district boards, which would change representation on the Orange county districts.

Charles Kipp Visiting Here Charles Kipp, 20, parachute rigger with the air force at Chanute Field, Ill., is among Anaheim servicemen home for the holidays.

(Thus key personnel, difficult or impossible to replace quickly in such spots as Hanford, Oak Ridge, Los Alamos or the Pentagon could be sickened or killed.) Nerve Gas Nerve Gas—forms of nerve gases were developed by the Germans during World War II but not used. Nerve gas is nearly colorless and odorless. Because its action is rapid, any mechanical detection methods would have to be automatic and give the warning in a matter of seconds. There are common drugs for arresting the progress of the convulsion and suffocation produced by the effects of the gas on the nerves, but they must be administered quickly. Nerve gas could be delivered by bombs, shells or "guided missiles from distant sources." A bomb would have an effective area radiating out up to a half mile from its gas-releasing explosion, but this does not mean death would come to all within the zone. It also could be used, presumably, in the same surrepti- B of A Sues Gas Co. For Tree Damage Claiming that gas leaking from the lines of the Southern Counties Gas company killed and damaged fruit trees and other trees on its property in the Placentia area, the Bank of America filed suit in Superior Court today against the gas company, demanding $11,538.43. The bank's property is situated on Carolina ave., in the Placentia district. The complaint alleges that gas leaked in large quantities from the adjacent lines on March 2 and Dec. 30, 1949. The gas killed 27 citrus trees and three ornamental palm trees, also damaged two citrus trees 50 per cent and 10 citrus trees 25 per cent. tious manner as germ weapons against strategic buildings or installations. Thus the three new weapons—radiological poison, biological material and nerve gas—can be used much more "selectively" than the atomic bomb.
