"With thi threatened citable los of business and the narrow margin in which we are now operating, because of both our inability to secure adequate freight rate and our high operating cost, there i no alternative but to reduce force commensur ate with the reduction inbus.r.es.

Thomas A.

"I never heard of a Hiss in the state department and said Hiss was a noise made by a snake. I suggested that he get better information." Nevertheless, the witness went on, he reported the conversation to a high state department official later on and suggested an investi-tion. The testimony did not bring out whether an inquiry was in fact made. Alger and Donald Hiss were in the state department at the time, Bullitt testified. Alger Hiss is serving five years' imprisonment for perjury, having been convicted of lying when he swore that he had never delivered government secrets to a Soviet spy ring.

Donald Hiss is practicing law in Washington. In relating the Daladier incident, Bullitt volunteered that he knows of nothing else which "reflects on Donald Hiss." The former ambassador also testified that in April, 1936, Owen Lattimore urged him to support immediate recognition of Outer Mongolia, a course of action which Bullitt said would have the effect of giving Russia another vote in the League of Nations.

Contractor Indicates Road Will Be Closed (Continued from Page 1) the state highway department Tuesday morning, stated the steel for the construction of the new-bridge is not available at this time. And assured the business men the bridge would not be torn down unless it could be replaced as soon as possible.

fnder the terms of the contract between the state and the contractor, traffic must be maintained at all times on Logan boulevard crossing Plank road. However, the bridge at the intersection of fnion avenue and Plank road must be torn down and replaced with a new structure. Pointing up the possibilities arising from keeping traffic open durir.g the work on the new high way, Mr. DetwUer stated that a motorist threatened court action Tuesday when a shovel inadvertently splashed her car with mud. If this had been concrete which was splashed on her automobile, Mr.

Detwiler said, her complaint w-ould have been much more severe. The additional cost of maintaining flag men and the loss of tune involved in waiting for automobiles to pass crucial spots would make the cost prohibitive under the present contract, it was reported. The meeting with Mr. Forbes Tuesday morning ended in a guarantee that Art Taylor, chair man of the business men's com mittee, Mr. Forbes, as district engineer, and Mr.

Detwiler. would meet together or that Mr. Forbes would contact Mr. Detwiler and inform Mr. Taylor of the results of their meeting.

Several of the business men in the area at an informal meeting Tuesday were weighing the cost of the project in terms of unemployment compensation to the hundreds of employes in the area versus the additional cost of the highway under the terms of an amended contract Blazing Gasoline Endangers Garage A spark from a welding torch Ignited a can of gasoline in the!
