Published after two years of by Agriculture: Department Editor Alfred Stefferud and contributing scientists, "Insects" is one of the most comprehensive reports ever assembled on insects and their control. The exhaustive 952-page volume covers the boll weevil and the bed bug, the cockroach and the corn borer and hundreds of other kinds of flying and crawling bugs.

It not only gives minute details on the history and habits of each, but tells the most up to date ways of getting rid of them.

Before he fell, James Sullivan, alias James Couch, 35, captured two trusty prisoners who followed bloodhounds to his hideout and tried to bribe them to throw off the pursuers. The trustees refused and the main posse spotted Sullivan as he tried to flee deeper into the swamp. "We hollered to him to halt but his only answer was to fire on us with a 32 caliber pistol," said Deputy Sheriff Howard- Roche. "Police Chief F.

Maintenance crews, which make up eight per cent of the industries' working force, remained In the mines. The ventilating and pumping systems must be kept operating. Continuous Inspections were carried on to detect any seepage of explosive gas into the pits and to guard against cavelns. However, the operators contend that when full crews are in the mines all workers maintain, a watch for unsafe conditions and they can be corrected as they are detected. The possibility that Lewis Is re- paring to call a strike In September to force an increase in his miner's wages, increased Friday Lewis notified the Federal Medlii tion Service that negotiations with the operators have failed to settle his undisclosed demands.

The Illinois governor this official It said, has vetoed some campaign on grounds that they violate his own ideas of what a politi- 'cal campaign should be.

"Certainly Governor Stevenson has put his personal, moderate imprint on his own campaign in the speeches and statements he has made," Monroney said. "We expect that our speakers will want to take much the same approach in their speeches on his behalf." Such a moderate campaign line would be In sharp contrast to President Truman's amed "give 'em hell" approach. The chief executive acquired that trademark on the 1948 campaign stump.
