S. District Court, Covington, concerning Office of Price Administration price ceiling violations, as was reported erroneously in yesterday's Enquirer. Through an error, due to similarity of names of two concerns, it wag stated that the C. Rice Packing Co. wag named in the OPA complaint.

Actually the Joseph N. Rice Packing 1564 Water Covington, ig the defendant Fl '17 Pv7 A temporary injunction preventing the Joseph N. Rice Packing 1564 Water Covington, from purchasing live cattle for slaughtering purposes at prices above Office of Price Administration ceilings was handed down late yesterday by Judge Mac Swinford in U. S. District Court, Covington.

In November and December, the OPA complained, the company paid a total of $54,512 for cattle on which the ceiling price was $52,759, the difference being $1,753 above ceiling. The company was a victim of the "watered-stock" racket, a system stock producers have of "salting down" money, defense counsel argued. The defense declared 80 per cent of the live cattle sold on markets in this vicinity was fed large amounts of salt 24 to 36 hours before marketing. In consequence, the animals drink large quantities of water, picking up weight which registers on the stockyards scales but disappears by the time they reach the hands of the slaughterer. Raymond Dressman, manager of the company, testified that grading and price-fixing by the OPA made it difficult for packers to purchase sufficient cattle and yet stay within price regulations.

A jury of nine women and three men, selected late yesterday in Campbell Circuit Court, Newport to try Elmer Lee Delk, 17, Mel bourne, on a charge of murdering his neighbor, Edward R.

Returning to the courtroom at 7:30 p. the court remained in session until 10 p. m.

Louisville, April 11 (AP) Kentucky schools must accept a major share of responsibility for community health, Dr. John E. Biewton of Peabody College, Nashville, told teachers and officials at the Kentucky Education Association convention here today. The chief health problem of the South is "human erosion," he declared, and schools must fight it with "human conservation." Dr. Brewton listed the problems as "preventable causes of death, preventable causes of illness and lowstandards of living." Dr.

E. W. Jacobsen, President of the University of Louisville, urged the teaching of "truth about the people of other countries" to counteract the "distorted picture given by the movies." Back from a recent tour of the British Isles, the university president said pupils there view Americans as gum chewers, gangsters or cowboys, living in luxury while Americans believe British counterparts "all wear Eton costumes and go to school In old, run-down buildings." Adron Doran, Wingo educator, legislator and minister, will head the KEA next year. He was the only person nominated late today for the presidency to succeed James T. Alton, Vine Grove.

Formal election is scheduled Friday. Also nominated today were Miss Sheila Johnson, Principal of Samuel Woodiill School, Fort Thomas, nd Miss Margaret Wait, Stearns, to be First and Second Vice Presi-rients, succeeding C. W. Marshall, Columbia, and L. C.

Curry, Bowling Green. To Be Destroyed By Proposed Falmouth Dam, Is Contention. Attorney Urges Action By Citizens To Get More Time For Appeal. im-IU. IIISrATrH TO THK ENgi'MBK.

Maysville, April 11 Losses in terms of inundated farms homes, and highway and rail arteries will far surpass any gains achieved by the construction of the proposed Falmouth Dam, Paul M. Runyon, Ewlng. Commonwealth Attorney of the Mason, Fleming and Bracken Judicial District, told a mass meeting of Mason County and Maysville citizens here tonight. Runyon, who is bIbo President of the Licking Valley Protective Association, said he based his statement upon gains predicted by United States Engineers. The mass meeting, which was held at the Mason County Court house, was presided over by W.

Pyles, Mason County Chairman of the Licking Valley Protective Asso ciation. Hunvon said the Falmouth Dam would provide flood control for 67 miles below the main dam, while creating a lake 178 miles long above, making necessary evacuation of hundreds of farms by persons who always have known the Licking River Valley as their homeland. URBAN AREAS INVOLVED. The dam, Runyon said, would wholy or partly submerge the fol-, lowing urban communities: Blue Lick Spring, Myers and Pleasant Valley, all in Nicholas County; Mil-ford, Bracken County; Salt Lick and Sherburne, Bath County; Clays- ville, Harrison County; Rowan County; Oakley, Laurel County, and McKinneysburg, l'en-j dleton County. As far as acreage is concerned, Mason County, the most thickly populated county affected, will suffer less than other counties by Inundation.

However, the number of acres that will be Inundated here is estimated at 5,000 to 6,001, Runyon Maysville. he added, does not stand to gain anything. All flood-control benefits, if any, will have effect 65 miles below Maysville, and there is no power shortage there, he said. Maysville he continued, should the proposed construction be carried out, will bcoine an "Ohio" city, as It will be cut off from Central Kentucky and its tobacco market, the second iHigest burley market In the world, and Its livestock market will be seriously affected with customers finding other markets for their products which can he reached more easily. HIGH GROCMt KTKRII.K.

Runyon contended tha the flood ing of communities In the aiea affected by the dam would necessitate the Inhabitants' removal to other places; yet the areas which are to be flooded are among the most fertile lands in Kentucky, while near-by higher ground, to which it is logically expected that the displaced farmers would be moved, is extremely sterile. Runyon said the Licking River dams would supply power to Cincinnati and other Ohio cities at the cost of rich Kentucky farmlands and Kentucky farm homes. He urged citizens of this section to wire Congressman Joe B. Bates and Senators Alben W. Barkley and Willinm A.

Stanfill, requesting a delay in the time allowed for an appeal. Runyon will address a mass meeting of Fleming County Citizens at Fkmingsburg tomorrow night. Jury Is Dismissed In Suit For $15,000 Against Auto Driver Failing to reach a verdict after less than two hours of deliberation, a Kenton County Circuit Cour jury was dismissed yesterday by Judge Rodney G. Bryson In the case of Richard G. Sutherland, 3626 Church Covington, who filed a $15,000 damage suit against Charles M.

Samuel, 310 Earle Covincton. as the result of a traffic accident. According to the petition, Sutherland suffered severe injuries October 4. 1945, when struck by an automobile driven by the defendant at Decoursey and Southern Covington. Sutherland was represented by Howell W.

Seven Draw hacks Are Cited llv President Of Transit Company, Who Says Riders Will Lose Time By Change. Fears of Covington City Com-missloners that officials of tha Cincinnati, Newport A Covington Railway Co. might take legal action opposing the permanent East-ern Avenue bus route established by ordinance yesterday were allayed somewhat lasl night by a statement Issued by P. G. Vonder-smlth, President and general manager of the Green Line.

Vondnrsmllh said that although his company already had entered formal protest against the selection of the permanent route as contained In the rlty ordinanra passed on first reading yesterday, "the company has not refused to operate on this route when It is so officially designated." Although the City Commissioners approved the ordinance by unanimous vote, the measure setting up the new route will not go Into-effect until It is given a second reading next Thursday and finally adopted. The proposed route follows: South on Eastern Avenue to Wallace Avenue, east on Wallace to Oakland Avenue, north on Oak-laid to 21st Street, west to Eastern Avenue, north to 20th Street, west to Greenup Street and over regular routs. SKVEN POINTS CITED. As a sequel to the formal protest entered by the Green Line through. Its attorney, Stephens L.

Blakely, on selection of this permanent route, Vondersmtth In last night's statement pointed out seven separate "disadvantages" the routa would impose upon residents of tha affected area. These were; (D A loop route should only be operated where It Is absolutely essential, it is necessary in tha case of Eastern Avenue, but thera is absolutely no necessity of adding still another loop on top of tha present one. The numeral "8" Is II right for designating; tha Eastern Avenue line, but thers Is no reason for making tha route resemble the figur. (2) The time spent by residents in the heavily populated area between 15th and 20th Streets adjacent to Eastern Avenue In going to Cincinnati will be lengthened by some three minutes. 3) The two-way operation on 20th Street, in the evening rush hours which has met with much favor by the passengers will be seriously Interfered with and may have to be discontinued in tha event the "Figure 8" bus route Is established.

"NOT MUCH CLOSER." Transportation service will not he brought much closer to tha residents of Sterrett Avenue than that afforded by the former streetcar route. 5) -Oakland Avenue, and 21st Street, are not thoroughfares and are narrow. Many trees on thesa streets will have to be trimmed and It will be necessary to prohlbt parking In front of 21 homes 24 hours a day in order to permit tha busses to make the many turns. (6) Oakland Avenue is not in good repair and was constructed only for light traffic. It Is moot likely this street will have to reconstructed the property owners 1 "cn "Pernnons nave Peen rbHndnned because they proved Impractical and undesirable.

FAVORS "ANOTHER ROUTE.1 Concluding, Vondersmlth said: "The Green Line has provided the finest equipment. It Wants to serve the people In the best manner possible. It recognizes 20th Street. Is not satisfactory and believes that another existing and connecting which will dn rh. mnt cnH fr th gieatest number of people." Theo Hageman, Covington City Manager, said late yesterday that tne City Commission expects addi tional protests from residents who heretofore hay balked at running gasoline busses on Wallace Avenue and from pnssengers who wera compelled to walk two blocks or more when the temporary route went Into effect 10 days ago and the Corporation Street loop was eliminated.

At that time city officials and utility executives were studying three proposals for permanent, routing of the busses. The route chosen In the ordinance approved yesterday was one of the three plans. John L. Cushlng, City Solicitor, said that he had Informed City Commissioners before the permanent route was decided upon that adoption of that plan was in opposition to State Motor Transportation Division o'der.

Trouser Pockets Are Turned Inside Out In Accident, Dr. Sauters Theory. Following an investigation. Dr. Coroner, reported yesterday that Thomas William Luck, 84, Aspen Grove, Campbell County, retired farmer, whose body was found in a ditch on US 27 near his home at 8:30 a.

yesterday, evidently had been struck by a truck. Dr. Sauter discarded an earlier police theory that the aged man had been murdered. This version of the tragedy was adopted by police when they found Luck'g trouser pockets turned inside out. The coroner said this condition of the clothing could have been due to the victim's having had his hands in his pockets when he was and $1.03 were found in Luck's pockets, and that relatives said this was all he had when he left home, Dr.

Sauter reported. Luck suffered a Bkull fracture and his face was crushed, Dr. Sauter said. The body was found by Stanley Poe, R. R.

Luck lived with his two sons, Robert and Thomas Jr. MISSING! Part Of New Statute. Hill Kentucky Law Hook Kdilor Plans To Include Adopted Child Act Any Way.
