As long as they are Ancient Threshing Machine Boiler Heats Local Plant Officials of the Swiss Automatic company had nothing but praise today for a worn out threshing ma chine boiler which h3d been heating their plant until Thursday in building No. 3 at the former Dow Magnesium plant at Marysville. Beset by shortages which stalled every effort to assemble a boiler for the 120 100 foot plant, the company took a desperate chance and rented the used thresher boiler from a Detroit concern Oct.

1. It was hooked up outside the plant, hand fed with coal 24 hours a day, and through an intricate assembly of pipes and fans, kept the firm's 40 workmen warm for full production during the last two months, Richard H. Asam, president, said. Meanwhile, officials assembled an orthodox boiler after a lengthy search and put it in operation for the first time Thursday, leaving the thresher apparatus to go the way of all junk.

President Truman's Sunday night nation-wide radio broadcast and the reaction to it. That pointed in Monday as the next critical day, with court action, meantime, limited to such actions as the I'MW putting up bond and carrying out the technical end of appealing from Goldsborough's rulings. PROPOSES PEACE PARLEY Green, in his statement Thursday, proposed that coal operators and Lewis be brought together in an attempt to agree on a contract that would put the miners back at work. His move was widely interpreted as a possible "peace feeler" that must have had the approval of Lewis, an AFL vice president. But weighing against that interpretation was the fact that Green said nothing about the miners going back to work while the negotiations were underway.

In any event, no takers came forward publicly from the ranks of private mine operators, to whom Green apparently was addressing his proposal for a "sincere and honest" conference on the strike issues. The National Coal association, meeting in New York, said the issue Ross Key into the river. The defense, contending the girl was under duress, said "The state has not made a case and has violated the laws of Missouri with a confession that was involuntarily."

he would stay the fines pending an appeal only if the bonds were posted by 3 p. m. Thursday. BOND DELAYED The deadline found union and government lawyers alike in Judge Goldsborough's chambers, and it was evident that some undisclosed hitch had developed. Unofficial word came later that the hitch was merely "technicalities" but no explanation was offered.

In announcing that CIO' would give legal support to his foe. Lewis, CIO President Philip Murray denounced the staggering fine as "a shocking 3ttempt to force American citizens to work against their will through economic coercion." "The CIO owes a responsibility to its millions of members to whom liberty is a precious possession," his statement said. "We therefore intend to take whatever steps are necessary to participate in the appeal to the Federal Court's decision." Such help could be given either by attaching CIO lawyers to Lewis' legal staff, or petitioning the court to enter the case as an interested party. The latter is more likely. irk I $49.75 "Sfe3 Open oatufcr I i November Lake Levels Well Under October Mean The level ot Lake Huron and Lake Michigan averaged 579.83 feet in November, a decrease of .27 of a foot from the October mean, the United States Lake Survey office reported today.

EMBARGO BEGINS Today brought into effect a parcel post embargo on packages of more than five pounds, as well as a ban on all freight except a handful of essential items. This seemed sure to cut off much of the flow of Christmas goods from factory to store. Word that TJMW "definitely" would post its $3,500,000 bond on the contempt of court fine came privately from persons close to UMW strategy. This offset earlier reports that the union might make Uncle Sam "come and get it," while meeting Lewis' own $10,000 bond requirement.
