Cars in Crash at Laurel and Oak Cars operated by Joseph Bruno, 71 North Laurel street, and Orlow Good, Drums, RD2, were damaged in a collision this morning about 9:15 at the intersection of Laurel and Oak streets.

Dorris is not conducive to winning elections. He alienated loo many good Democrats who could not take his high-handed, ruthless methods of conducting Democratic Party affairs.

"It is too bad that sincere Democrats have been hurt by Mr. Dorris is their efforts to win election to office. It's a proven fact that Dr. Dorris lets each candidate flounder around and makes no attempt to help a candidate win an election. "Proof of this can be seen when the county judges ran.

Dr. Dorris did not call any meetings at which all efforts in the campaign could be dove-tailed. "Commissioner McCullough as a candidate has two strikes on him right now because of the Dorris leadership," Fitelson asserted. Nevin Gorky, president of the Luzerne Borough Council, took a dim view of McCullough's can didacy, charging "90 per cent of the Democrats in the county agree McCullough cannot win. They'd better replace him with someone else." Gorky, who travels extensively along the west side of the Susquehanna River as an employe of the Pennsylvania Gas Water Com pany, added, "Everybody I speak to says McCullough cannot win in November and should be substi tuted for the coming election." Gorky said he personally feels a substitute should be placed.

"The field in the primary should have been left open," he said, and repeated Fitelson's comment that "McCullough has two strikes against him." Thomas Toole, brother of the late State Senator Patrick J. Toole, declined to comment directly. He indicated he was thinking primarily of the Wilkes-Barre City Democratic ticket but was interested also in the county ticket. He is a former state jobholder. Supports Ticket Joseph Braja, former Plymouth mayor, supported Dr.

Dorris and the entire slate of Democratic nominees. He was a candidate for sheriff in the primary without organization support. "I'm with the. ticket 100 per cent," he said. A Democratic leader, who preferred to remain anonymous, said the following Democrats, none of whom could be reached for comment, favored substitution for McCullough: Mayor Patrick Cooney, Ashley, who was a candidate for county treasurer in the primary; John Moran, once a candidate for mayor of Pittston and for county commissioner; John Conroy, an independent candidate for county commissioner in the May 21 primary; Steve Farris, former Democratic chairman; and James McLane, mayor of Avoca.

VA Dividend Deadline Set More than 150,000 holders of GI "RS" insurance policies have three months remaining in which to qualify for a special dividend by exchanging for term policies or converting to permanent insur ance, the Veterans Administration said today. The special dividend authorized for this purpose expires Sept.

13. After that date, "RS" policyholders still may convert or exchange their policies but they no longer will be eligible for the dividend payment. Only GI insurance policyholders with "RS" insurance that was issued to Korean Conflict servicemen are concerned with this program, the VA pointed out. On or before Sept. 13 they must: 1.

Exchange the "RS" term policy for a term policy, generally costing about one-third of what they are now paying; or 2. Convert the "RS" policy to a low-cost permanent plan of insurance. The term insurance cannot be renewed after age 50 but the in surcd may at any time while term insurance is in force, convert to any of six permanent plans. These have fixed premiums higher than for term insurance but they do not increase in cost every five years as term insurance premiums do. The six permanent plans are: ordinary life, twenty payment life, thirty payment life, twenty-year endowment, endowment at age 60, and endowment at age 65.

Policyholders need not write to the VA since information, premium rates and application forms are being sent by the VA to each veteran still holding an "RS" policy.

I definitely feel a candidate should be substituted for McCullough if the Democratic Party wants to win in November. In my primary campaign around the county I discovered McCullough was a weak candidate. Russin blamed his defeat in the primary on the Election Day ap- pointment of former Democratic Countv Commissioner Edward M. 1 Carroll to a vacancy on the board of county assessors. "If Carroll did not get that job.

I would have had the nomination," said Russin. "The returns from Avoca and Pittston show it."
