East Press Angry

-me East press sputtered with rage over the Big Three Pbrbign Ministers decisions in New York. The west press pun-ed with delight

The Russians charged the West- ern Powers' decisions were "intens- med preparations for war." Their oiiiclal newspaper Tucllche Rund- gchnll, said the increase in Western cccupatlon forces in Western Ger- many was "an act of aggression." and the creation of a mobile Ger- man police force the camouflaging or a West German army.

The Berlin police squabble grew out of the arrest of six east zone "People's Police" who blundered into the Western sectors Monday. They will stand trial lilriday on charges of carrying arms illegally.

The "People's Police" retaliated by taking 25 West Berlin police into custody last night as they were riding the subway to their homes in the east sector. They carried no arms.

West Berlin hit back by rounding up 44 more "People's Police" who live in western sectors. Authorities on both sides admitted the arrests were retaliatory. The game could keep up forsome time for members of East Berlin police live in the west. and many west Berlin police live in the mast.

To Cut Power

At this point, the Elst Berlin city government decided to throw ovu- hoard an agreement to supply ei- ECMC Dower to West Berlin. The mat settling amounts of current and price. was reached four days Ito and was confirmed only this

morning. soviet-licensed ADN

pin

But the news agency said the East Berlin Government had decided all the power is needed for its factories.

This was the second Communist Imbarso on power in three months. A cut-off in June lasted only a few weeks and proved not nearly so embarrassing as during the Berlin blockade.

in diameter and about 30 feet deep with about two feet of water in

With the aid of an electric) light dropped on a card the movement of water could be plainly seen. The well is walled with stone without any apparent binding and those who worked on it did a good job The well was covered with some old furnace grates with a. foot or so of clay on top of them.

This portion of the basement was formerly used as janitor's quarters. and the well- was no

doubt for his benefit as well as for those attending the school. An inch and a half pipe extending the whole depth of the well was still in position which contained a steel three-quarter inch iron rod for pumping purposes. This pipe was taken up by the workmen.

The well was prc-belbly sunk about 1870. .The building was first used as a Methodist Academy and rented by the school Board in 1817 and later purchased by it from the Academy authorities.

Next Step In Church Union Up To Anglicans

'I.0RON'IiD. Sept. 20 -(OP) - The Unitcd Church of Canada said in effect today that the next step toward union with the Church of llngland in Canada la up to the Anglicans.

The General Council of too United Church agreed to ask the Anglican Church to Join in new- talks aimed at union and said it will make further efforts "when the Church or England in Canada hag pledged itself in a. similar definitive manner."

"it is our conviction that where there is a pledged intent on both sides, methods of co-operation can and should be worked out.' said a resolution adopted by the 300 General Council delegates.

Union of the denominations was suggested by the Anglicans in 1943 and the two Churches set up com- mltteea to study the proposal. A report on the discussions was pre- sented, to the Anglican General Synod a year ago.

one of the difficulties encount- ered by both denominations was that of deciding on details of a mutually-acceptalble ministry. The Anglicans have bishops; United Church members have none. Both claim to ordain persons as minist- ers of the holy catholic church.

During today's discussions Rev. R. A. Hiltz. secretary or the Ang- lican communion in Canada. and Rt. Rev. A. R. Beverley. Anglican Bishop of Toronto. told the Unit- ed Church Council that the two communi have been gradually growing together. '

"Some say there has not been much progress. but I do not believe it," Canon I-iiltz said. "A great deal of good has been done by our con- versations. we understand more about your church and you of ourd and perhaps of the values of episcopacy."

The General council was told in the report of the Church's mission- ary snd maintenance department that total membership last year was 806.197. Church of Englnnu membership reported in the latest issue of the Canadian Almanac was 1,084,602 but differences in the churches' systems of arriving at membership totals make com- parison difficult.

The report adopted by General Council said in part:

"We should like it to be known that through these years of icon- yersatiorls' there has been cordial- ity of spirit, a desire to learn from each other, and a disposition to appreciate the historic traditions which each has inherited. We ex- press the hope that the way will remain open for a continuation of negotiations and the cultivation of an ever-increasing fellowship un- til. by God's help. we have reach- ed the goal of union."

DUTCH STEAWBEREIES FOR CALIFORNIA

twhen 00 tons of frozen straw- berries were recently shipped from Rotterdam to California, something now was started in in- ternatlonal trade, according to a report from -the Netherlands.

By adopting a. short-day treat- ment, whereby the plants are covered by dark glass each after- noon and uncovered at 8 the fol- lowing morning, some Dutch strawberries are reported to be yielding two crops a year. Plants which bore a good crop earlier this year are expected to bear again in October and November.

T. F Mowle, comptroller of Dow-Jones and Company. publish- ers of the Wall Street Journal. said: "Newspap . have a sales tool in their advertising mace so valu- able to American business that it cannot be ignored. It is not being ignored. We should price it ac- cordingly with apologies to none."

Mowle. in a prepared talk at the institutes annual meeting. traced the rise in labor, newsprint and other costs in the last decade.

"Newspapers. as a whole, are earning less each year despite an annual increasing volume of gross revenue." he said. "Several great) newspapers have closed their doors within the current year. Six- teen mergers of competing news- papers or printing plants have taken place so far this year for

y reasons and more are in the offing.
