Tumdoy, September 24, 1957- THt DAILY INDEPENDENT, MONESSEN, PA. Donora Annexation Hearing Begins Borough Wonts 215 Acre Tract Of Land from Carroll Township The borough of Donora started another attempt yesterday to annex a 215 acre tract of land from Carroll Twp. Judge David H. Weiner heard testimony during the first anhex- ation hearing in Washington ty Court. He is scheduled to con another hearing tomorrow.

Tfois is the second time Donora -has gone to court in an effort to annex the area. Last year the court disallowed the annexation petition when testimony proved that Borough Coun- failed to foljow the law in votes of councilmen in overriding the veto of Burgess August Z. Chambon. Since that time, the borough has gone through the same procedure "of passing an ordinance on the basis of a petition for annexation by property owners in the land to b- annexed. Four in Protest And once again, Carroll Twp.

officials and land owners are back in court protesting the annexation. Four protesting witnesses called yesterday. They included Michael J. Yavorsky, Frank 'L. Cadler, J.

Glenn Carson, president of the Board of Supervisors, and Frank Ivey, secretary to both the supervisors and the school directors. If the court rebuffs the petition, the borough will have to wait live before making another attempt. Judge Weiner will take all of the 'testimony in the case, but the decision will be made by the court after oral arguments. Among other things, the court will be asked to decide if the borough is permitted to begin an- jiexation proceedings without waiting five years. Attorneys for the borough contend that the period is not necessary since the previous petition was disallowed on a legal technicality.

The land in question is located adjacent to Donora on the western side. Chamber's Board of Directors.

AFL- CIO Ready To Blackball Teamsters Union NEW YORK (UP) The AFL- CIO high command is ready to blackball the Teamsters Union unless the Teamsters do an about- face, labor sources said today. The federation's i Council, meeting in New York, also planned to issue clean-up-or- get-out directives to the Bakery Workers and United Textile Workers. The Teamsters, largest union in the nation, spurned repeated invitations to appear before the council on charges that it is dominated by corrupt leaders. In Miami Beach, retiring President Dave Beck was blunt, "We can damn well handle our own business," he wired George Meany, AFL-CIO president, in a new burst of defiance.

Moves leading to expulsion of the trucking union are expected from the 29- member Executive Council. Renewed claims by i Teamsters boss James R. Hoffa that he is a sure thing to succeed Beck at forthcoming union elections have increased AFL CIO determination to act. A two-hour meeting of the AFL- CIO's eight-man executive committee Monday night set the stage for quick action on a against the three unions.

Damage was estimated at $900 Says Doctors Out to Destroy Welfare Fund PITTSBURGH (UP)--A United Mine Workers committee, representing some 4,000 miners in the Allegheny Valley Kiski areas, has charged that the Pennsylvania Medical Society was out to "destroy" the UMW Welfare Fund. Francis McCallister, chairman of the Miner's Hospital Committee at nearby Curtisville, made charge in answer to a resolution passed by the society at a meeting here last Tuesday. The society's resolution declared that any doctor "who knowingly and willingly participates" in any ilan which "denies its beneficiaries the right of free choice of physician, or free choice of hospital, as defined by the American Medical Assn. Guides for relationship with the TJMW fund, shall jpon a guilty of unethical McCallister said any movf to wand UMW doctors "unethical" vould be met with a law suit. "The State Medical Society and ts constituent societies can be issured that any threats or charg- 8i of unethical conduct made against physicians participating in such programs (as the UMW Welfare Fund) will be met with legal action by physicians, trade unions and other interested parties." McCallister said a statewide committee will be established to defend any physician in the slate from "intimidation or change of unethical conduct by the state or county medical societies." He said the committee will be prepared to enter suit against the medical societies if the public is 'denied medical service as a result of this intimidation." "Furthermore," said McCallister, "any threat or other intimidating action will be brought to the attention of the state attorney general's office as well as the antitrust division of the United States Department of Justice.

"The recent action by the state. Medical Society is aimed at destroying the miners' fund a similar medical plans by converting them into agencies whose sole function is to without le- gard to quality or cost," GOT A PAIN JUST LIKE IKE'S Little Ida Kane, a victim of ileitis, the same affliction which struck President Eisenhower, looks a bit doleful as her sister Marie, 9, shows her a letter from the Summer White House at Newport, R.

A roofing company executive became interested in Ida, and wrote to the President because "I thought he would be interested More Testimony in Hoxsey Trial Today PITTSBURGH (UP)-Additional testimony was scheduled today at a non-jury trial in Federal Court where the government is seeking a permanent injunction against treatment of out-of-state patients at the controversial Hoxsey Cancer Clinic at Portage, Pa.

There were two major developments when the trial opened on Monday. Federal Judge John L. Miller refused to disqualify himself from the case on a defense charged that he was "biased and prejudiced." And the prosecution entered into the court three pre-trial admissions by the defense. Judge Miller said he would file reasons later why he would not step out of the case, as "was requested by former state Sen. John J.

Haluska, administrator of the clinics and one of the defendants in the trial. When Miller ordered the trial to begin, Assistant U. S. Atty. Thomas J.

Shannon revealed that pretrial defense admissions showed: --The clinic made $200,000 last year. --Haluska had asked that his monthly salary as administrator be increased from 600 to 1,000 a month. Shannon said several check stubs showed Haluska received as much as $3,000 a month --That the publisher of a Midwest magazine was paid by the clinic to print a book sized pamphlet which Shannon claimed was given to patients for public relations purposes. Shannon also charged that pills given to patients paying $400 for Bus Tokens to Be Eliminated HARRISBURG (UP)--The Pub- iic Utility Commission has authorized the elimination of a cent ioken fare by the DeBolt Lines, Homestead, effective Sept, 30. The firm said elimination of the tokens and the use of its straight 15 cent cash fare will produce approximately more revenue annually, but added that the move is primarily designed to divert short-haul riders to compet- ng lines so its through riders may accommodated.

All other fares, ranging from LO to 35 cents, and 10 cent school 'ares remain unchanged. treatment are currently selling for $1.55 per thousand. The federal government wants a permanent injunction which would prohibit the clinic from treating patients from other states. Last fall the government, following a 23-day jury trial, was granted permission to destroy thousands of pills which had seized in a raid at the i i earlier. The prosecution said the pills were mislabelled and shipped illegally in interstate commerce Furthermore, the Federal and Drug Administration insisted the pills were "useless" in the treatment of cancer.

Harry M. Hoxsey, the Texas naturopath for whom the clinic at Portage was named, claims he has no financial interest in the Pennsylvania corporation.

The remark was made afte Councilman Robert Packard cal ed attention to the fact that th state plans to repave two streei downtown Monessen. Eickard said he wasn't promp ted by any "civic jealousy" bu thought Council determm why the state paved Monesse streets while ignoring Charleroi' streets. Earlier this year the stat highway department took ove maintenance of both Donncr an Schoonmaker avenues in Mones sen. Those streets carry Rout 906 north and south through th city. Rickard pointed out that a sim ilar situation exists in Charlero where McKean and Fallowfiel avenues carry Route 88.

Th state has taken over mainten ance of McKean, but has declined to accept responsibility fo Fallowfield.

(UP)-Britain warned today that Russia's massive arms deliveries to the Middle East may be to "pre-stock forward bases for the Soviet Union itself." British Foreign Secretary Selwyn Lloyd, in a policy speech to the United Nations General Assembly, appealed to the Russians "to perceive the dangers of their policies of increasing tension." He said he hoped "some idea of what is really happening will percolate through to the Syrian people." On a more optimistic note, Lloyd said he believed progress on disarmament "is possible in the course of the next few weeks" and Britain would further such prospects "in any way we can." But he said a compiehensivo disarmament plan covering all stages "is not practical politics at this moment." Hits Arms Shipments Lloyd called the Middle East "the area of greatest tension at the moment." "What has been the new factoi over the last year or two which has complicated the existing issues and done so much to promote anxiety and tension?" he asked. "To my mind, it is the deliveries of Soviet bloc arms--lens upon tens of millions of pounds worth.

There are some who believe that the purpose behind this is to pre-stock forward bases for the Soviet Union itself. The deliveries arc on such a scale as to give some color to this suggestion." Lloyd said Britain views the situation in Syria "with grave concern." "We have no wish to prescribe the form of government which Syria should have," he said. "Our desire is that Syria should be independent and should respect the independence of her neighbors. I do not think that the Syrian people have any idea of how far their true interests are being subordinated to those of the Soviet Union. The long-term bill will be a heavy one." Lloyd said he "cannot conceive" that even the Russians believe their propaganda line about what is happening in Syria.

He agreed with Secretary of State John Foster Dulles that the Soviet action in the Middle East should be regarded by the U.N. as "indirect aggression."

It was just that things kept coming up. First-off, Parton was offered a good-paying lumber camp job in Oregon, so ne decided higher education could wait a while. Seven years later the idea of owning his own restaurant lured Parton once again from matters academic. He acquired a wife and two daughters, too, who had to be supported. Then World War II came along, another delay.

But now business Is good, the family is well taken care of and Parton is a freshman at the University of Tennessee, heading for a law degree.
