Wegman Electric as low bidder, was awarded the stop-go light contract by action of City Council Oct. 8, and since has awaited arrival of some needed fittings and other materials for preliminary work. The fittings have just been received, and the contractor, it was said, will start work at a near date.

Signal boxes and controller mechanism will be unavailable from the manufacturer before late January, it has been indicated, but the Wegman firm plans to push all other portions the installation project as rapidly as possible, thus taking advantage of open weather of late fall and early winter. Wiring circuits for the traffic lights will be installed underground. This will necessitate pushing conduits under the street pavements so circuits can be extended to lights on all corners of the intersections. Excavations must be made in back of curb lines so that the pipes to carry the circuits can be pushed into place. Both city officials and the contractor are hopeful there will be a period of good weather to phase of the job.

Walter Byers was released on bond for arraignment in criminal court Nov. 17, after pleading innocent yesterday before Justice of the Pence Frank Milligan.

The charges wore pressed by John Jenkins, who said his son, David, was brought home in a semi-conscious condition with two lumps on his head. Milligan said four other pupils told him Byers had whipped the child because he had foiled to recite his numbers lesson correctly and laughed when ordered to stand facing the wall. Byers testified he had spanked the boy but denied the punishment meted out was "too severe." Parents and pupils last week picketed Byers schoolhouse, carry- Ing signs which read new teacher."

The warrant, issued by Police Magistrate Donnell Hofmeier upon a complaint signed by Assistant Stale's Attorney Everett B. Dodtl, served on Ackerman at the county jail, where he has been held since his arrest Oct. 27 for questioning in the Forkeyviile tavern theft, which occurred enrly on the morning of Oct. 24. Ackerman, it: was said at the sheriff's office today, has signed a statement admitting the tavern break-in and theft of $400 from a hiding place inside the establishment after the proprietor had closed for the night.

The money, deputies quoted Ackerman as saying, was spent during a brief visit to Bonld prior to his arrest. Ackermann, according to his statement, lives with his parents in quarters above the tavern. He had been placed on probation several months ago in connection with another theft. Notice was served on Ackerman at the jail Monday that State's Attorney Burton has requested a hearing Friday in Circuit Court for revocation of Ackerman's parole in the prior theft case.

Of the traffic cases, the chief's report shows 40 were for such common violations as speeding. Four were for lack of mufflers, or defective mufflers; one for littering the pavement with loose material from a truck, and two lor lack of required licenses.

Winant, Former Envoy, CommitsSuicide CONCORD, N. Nov. 4. John G. Winant, wartime ambassador to Great Britain and three- times governor of New Hampshire, shot himself to death last night with a .32 calibre Belgian pistol.

The 58-year-old diplomat, who retired only in January as permanent U. representative on the United Nations Economic and Social Council, was officially pronounced a suicide by Medical Referee Clarence E. Butterfield. Dr. Butlerfield attributed the act to overwork.

His secretary, J. Bernard Teulon, said Winant's health had not been good and that a doctor advised him to "take things harijj hpart. was suffering kidney or bladdei trouble. Had Worked'Hard "I know Mr. Winant has been working very hard lately on writing and business affairs and I believe that he suddenly cracked," said Teulon.

"This suicide was done on the spur of the moment." Gov. Charles' M. Dale ot New Hampshire said his predecessor would be considered a casualty of World War II. Winant had just completed his From Grosvernor Nov. 15 publication and was understood to be planning a sequel.

His body was found lying face down ijear a firearms cabinet in his son's bedroom by a secretary and maid after they heard a thud no shot. Doctors said there were indications Winant had fired the bullet through his right temple -while kneeling. A box of headache pills, some missing, was in the room. Two guns were Belgian pistol and a German Luger that apparently had been thrown against the bedroom wall when Winant could not find ammunul- tlon.

Paul's school, where he once was a student and later a went upstairs shortly afterward and had dinner served in his room. No one saw him until they heard the thud about 6:30 p. m. He died an hour later without regaining consciousness. Loyal Jloosovelt Supporter Though a Republican, Winant Became a loyal supporter of the ate President Franklin D.

(m Prospective Republican limitations on the Marshall plan began to take form today with a demand from Sen. Vandenberg (R-Mich) that the administration submit a "total bill" for worldwide aid proposals. VandenOerg's assertion that "we cannot indefinitely underwrite the world," drew attention to a growing framework of requirements upon which the GOP majority in Congress may insist before it approves any plan for economic help to Europe. Sen. Taft (R-Ohio) already has said the cost of such aid ought to be limited to 54,500,000,000 in th next year.

Sen. White of Maine the GOP floor leader, told a re porter he thinks other party mem bers will have "quite a few Ideas of their own" when the specia session begins considering the pro gram Nov. 17. Mr. Truman also has called fo action to halt a domestic inflation ary spiral, but White indicated this subject may be laid aside temper arily for debate on the aid program.

Vandenberg, returning to his desk here to begin preparations for Senate foreign relations committee hearings on emergency European help proprsals, mode it plain in an Ann Arbor, speech yesterday that he has not softened his previous demand for a "total balance sheet" of worldwide in eluding that to China. The Michigan senator said he is in agreement with Secretary State Marshall's plan to help Eu rope helf itself if the program is carried out under sound administrative policies and with adequate cooperation, from the nations receiving assistance. Administration leaders have been talking'privately in terms of $5,000,000,000 to $7,000,000,000 lor the first year's economic aid to western Europe. But there has been no apparent effort to estimate now what sort of outlays will be required in China or elsewhere in Asia. there seems to be one meeting ground on which many of these differences may be compromised.

Republicans and Democrats alike appear to agree that something must be done to keep western Europe out of Communist hands.

4 UPl The voluntary food conservation program is "rolling along" toward its goal of saving bushels of grain for Europe this winter and no stiffening or relaxation of recommendations is planned, Charles Luckman, chairman of the citizens food committee, said today. "We are not considering adding a 'wheatless' day to save grain and the way the program is rolling along, we don't anticipate the "need of adding anything to it," he sold at a news conference during a visit to Chicago. He added, however, it is his personal belief the world food problem is a long-term condition and said he had "no idea" what food conservation measures, if any, would be invoked when his committee concludes its emergency assignment Jan. 1. Luckman said private surveys Indicated 48 percent of the American people, observed the first meatless Tuesday and 45 percent observed the first poultryless and eggless Thursday and that the observance had Increased "very substantially" since then.

He said there were indications farmers are feeding less grain to their meat animals. The average weight of hogs slaughtered the first week of October, he said, was 219 pounds, compared with 240 pounds the first week of September. He added that "millions" of pounds of chicken were being consumed in the United States each week, and maintained these chickens were coming directly from the farms because there has been "no decline" in the number, of chickens in cold storage. The food committee chairman contended that lessening demand for meat and poultry would discourage farmers from feeding high priced grain. The voluntary-food conservation program, Luckman said, 'involved "humanity and national self-interest." He said persons who "want some feed Europe" would like to see voluntary food conservation" program fail.

Luckman, who conferred with the Chicago food conservation coiri- mlttee, is enroute to las Angeles for the departure Friday, of the "Friendship Train" which will make a transcontinental journey'to pick up direct contributions of food for Europe. Originally a 40-car train was planned, he said, but 160 cars of food already have been offered and "I'm sure it wlU increase to 300 cars."
