However, it is hoped by the telephone officials that a change can be made in the basic policy, in order that construction can soon start in the Adair area. In this manner, it was explained, valuable time would be saved and as the construction was completed in the Adair area, other locations in the co-operative's rural territory the project Driver Asleep After Crash Arresting bfficers reported finding Carl A.

Meeting briefly, the tribunal handed down two decisions, accepted several cases for review, rejected others and then recessed until next Monday. The court: 1. Agreed to decide whether franchised automobile agencies which operate within one state are subject to the Taft-Hartley labor law. A lower court has held they are because they get their franchises from a concern that operates in interstate commerce. The Supreme Court's decision, which will not come until the next term, may well affect franchised dealers in other products.

2. Agreed to decide whether gambling machine dealers doing only intrastate business must register with the U. S. attorney general under a 1951 law. The law requires dealers to list all sales and deliveries to states that have not exempted themselves by legislation.

A lower court has ruled the registration and report sections unconstitutional in the case of two dealers who confined their operations to Georgia. Needed Shower Drenches Area Immediate rainfall needs were met by a drenching and prolonged shower which extended from Saturday though Sunday to establish a total measurement of 1.82 inches locally. Previous precipitation this month amounting to only .63 of an inch was gathered in five small measurable showers. There were two other days when only a trace of rain was noted. April was a fairly wet month, but total rainfall was under the average mark.

Consequently a ground-soaking storm was sorely needed and the week-end rain is believed to have met that situation. The top-soil had dried recently, but that had not particularly worried farmers, who have been working long hours in field work and planting. Makes Rise The temperature remained fairly cool during the rains, but today a rise to 72 degrees had occurred by noon after a low of 47 was registered during the night. The weather bureau believes I more rain is in prospect during the next 24 hours. This prospective fall is not needed, it is indicated, and would probably do more harm than Field work, would be set back for an additional period.
