By The Associated Press
Week-end driving in Georgla
resulted in the death of 10 Geor
gians.
An eleventh Georgian, Charles

yesterday (Sunday) when a small
private plane he had rented
crashed in Columbus. In four
other plane crashes, only one per
son was injured.
Witnesses said the plane, in
which Smith was alone, crashed
into a tree near the Municipal
Airport.
Three were killed in Talbotton
yesterday in two accidents.
Talbot County Sheriff James P.
Ferguson said Graham Wimberly,
41, and Lewis Dyess, 34, were
killed instantly when their car
went out of control and crashed
into a bridges abutment about 20
miles east of Columbus.
The sheriff said Dewey Robin~

Special Deputy Attorney Gen
eral Claude Shaw charged today
that the Brunswick Beverage Co.,
licensed under the name of A. P.
Leotis, sold liquor on credit—a law
violation, ... -
‘He said the firm violated the
law even after it was summoned
before Redwine last September on
other charges and placed under a
30-day suspension.
The company was given one
week after the hearing in Septem
ber before the suspension was to
take effect. Shaw said during this
week, the firm stocked up its deal
ers on credit.
Unlicensed Persons
Original charges were operating
a wholesale plant as a retail store
and selling to unlicensed persons—
both law violations.
Leotis, prominent Brunswick
business man, offered no defense
at today’s hearing. Instead, he
surrendered his license and his
attorneys told Redwine Leotis was
glad to “get out of the liquor busi
ness.”
Leotis contended in the Sep
tember hearing thai he was not
familiar personally with operations
at the plant.
Redwine also suspended for five
days two retail liquor stores in
which Joe C. Stewart, general
manager of the Leotis Wholesale
plant, had an interest.
State law forbids a wholesaler
or any of his employes from any
connection with a retailer. Stewart,
who reported his interest in the
retail stores, said he was not aware
of this provision.

New Steel Settlements
Are Expected This Week
Gov’t Officials Feel Action
May Speed Lewis Coal Truce
WASHINGTON, Nov. 7. — (AP) — Hopes for labor
peace in both the steel and coal industries hinged today on
quickened settlement moves in the steel strike.
Government officials said they look for several major
steel firms to come to terms this week with the striking
CIO Steelworkers. They said thig probably would egg on
John L. Lewis and soft coal operators toward an agree
ment.
There were reports that Presi
dent Truman may intervene in the
coal situation if it continues hope
less beyond this week.
The coal strike is now In its 49th
day, the steel strike in its 37th. .
Of the two stoppages, the worse
effects have come from the coal
mine walkout, which curtailed
train service and created fuel
shortages for many householders.
But lack of steel has hit manufac- |
turers. ‘
Steel settlement prospects look-l
ed brighter with the return to!
Pittsburgh of Philip Murray, pres
ident of the CIO and the striking
steelworkers union.
Murray, busy with the CIO con
vention at Celveland last week,
now can give full time to pressing
on the rest of the industry the
peace terms already accepted by
the Bethlehem Steel Corp., second
Jargest steel producer.
| The Bethlehem settlement pro
vided for a SIOO minimum monthly
pension including government So
cial Security benefits, along with
a social insurance program. It did
not include a wage increase.
An offer has been made tn Mur
ray’s union by Republic Steel
Corp., third largest steeimaker, but
its terms have not been disclosed.
Charles M. White, Republic presi
dent, said it is “not the Bethlehem
plan.”
Peace talks with the steelwork
ers also were scheduled for early
this week by Jones and Laughlin
Steel Corp., and Youngstown Sheet
and Tube, both major producers.
Murray also may soon iake up
the invitation to negotiate issued
by the country’s largest producer,
U. 8. Steel Corp.
Over the weekend a new steel
strike broke out as 10,000 of Mur
ray’s union members left their
jobs at five plants of the Timken
Roller Bearing Co., over the pen
sion-insurance demand.
Harry Mayfield, president of the
steelworkers’ local at Timken's
Columbus, 0., plant, predicted an
early settlement.

Mother Knifes 4 Children
After “Saint Gives Word”
STERLING, 111., Nov. 7.—(AP)—A 35-year-old mother
said last night she slashed the throats of her four small
children because a “saint kept telling her to do it.” :
The woman, Mrs. James
Moughan, made the statement at
a hearing in which she was ad
judged insane within thiee hours
after her husband found her hack
ing one of the children.
Hospital attendants said all the
children are expected to recover.
They are Mary Ellen, age two
months; Richard, 20 months;
Michael, three years old next
month, and James, four.
Mrs. Moughan still wore the
blouse and slacks splattered with
the blood of her babies when she
left the sanity hearing in a special
night session of county court and
was taken to the East Moline State
Hospital.
At the hearing before Judge
Walter J. Stevens, she asked

Navy, are taken in stride as most
of the Bohemians of the Village

or otherwise converge on the
apartment.
But the girls fight on through
thick and thin—to try to make
their careers in New York, the
brainier Ruth as a writer, the
prettier Eileen as an actress.

CAR SMASHED IN COLLISION WITH BIG TRUCK
This 1949 model sedan was thoroughly
torn apart in an accident west of Read

of a parked tractor-trailer along the
Reading-Lancaster highway. Leroy Ash
Kidnap ‘
Admitte
UTICA, N. Y, Nov. T—(AP)—
A remorse-stricken mother con
fessed that her six-week-old son
was killed in a fall from her arms
and that her story of kidnapping
was “made up” out of fear of
what her husband would say.
“l dropped my haby,” Mrs,
Stella Komorek blurted out at a
coroner’s inquest last night.
The sobhing admission from the
plump, 29-year-old mill worker’s
wife came 11 hours after the body
of her son, Stephen, was found
in a mill-pond, 500 yards for the
Komorek home in nearby Clay
ville.
Coroner Preston R. Clark gave
a verdict. of accidental death. Au
thorities said no charge would be
placed against Mrs. Komorek.
During hours of sieady ques
doning by state police yesterday,
she had clung to her "story that
the infant was snatched from its
bassinet in the kitchen late Fri
day night by a strange man.
But under oath at the coroner’s
inquest, she broke almmost at once.
“Now, Stella, tell us what hap-
Coninued On Page Two
whether the children were still
alive. Assured that they were, she
said “It would be terrible—a dis
grace—for them to go through life
with scars.’*
Her . husband, a steelworker,
testified that Mrs. Moughan had
not been well since the birth of
their last baby.
He was working in a shed at the
rear of their three-room home, he
said, when Mrs. Moughan began
slashing the children with a
kitchen butcher knife. He related
that when he finished his work
and returned to the house, Mrs.
Moughan had James sprawled on
a kitchen table and was slashing
at his throat,
Moughan said his wife also at
tempted to ?ut her own throat but
inflicted only a minor scratch.
The couple came to Sterling
about three and a half years ago.
Moughan said they were married
five years ago in Hugo, Minn,

Oxygen Treatments
Cut Polio Deaths
INDIANAPOLIS, Nov, 7.— (AP) —The death rate of
infantile paralysis victims given early oxygen treatment at
Riley Hospital has been only about half the national aver
age, hospital authorities repqrted today:: -
Evidence is this must be due to
a great extent to oxygen treat
ment, said Dr. Donald J. Casely,
medical director of Indiana Uni
versity Medical Center which su
pervises the hospital.
The hospital has ke 277 polle
myelitis patients and 13 of these
have died. ¥ "
This is about®half the average
death expectatncy in the nation
and in Indiana as a whole. 4
This record was made despite
the fact that the hospital took only
SEricus or criiicai cases.
Dr. Casely pointed out that use
of oxygen was not new, but that
Riley hospital has facilities to try
experiment on a fairly large scale.
It has been common practice to
give patients oxygen treatment
and place them in iron lungs only
after the victim had shown a blu
ish color caused by lack of oxygen.
But at Riley this year each vic-j

WASHINGTON, No. T=—(AP)—
The United States intends to keep
troops in Japan for many years
after the end of the Allied occu~-
pation.
Diplomatic authorities said thas
decision has been reached by offi
cials who, in trying to deaw up 2
draft of a Japanese peace treaty,
faced this tough problem:
How can Japan be given full
political independence, while still
keeping some protection against a
growing Communist mensace in
Asia?
The next step must be consulta
tion with Britain and other na
‘tions. U. S. planning has progress~
ed far enough so that Secretary of
State Acheson will be able to as

readiness to start such talks in the
near future,
The major provisions of the
pact as now drafted by the State
Department call for: -
1. An end to the Allied occu
pation commanded by Gen. Doug
las MacArthur, as soon as the
!treaty is signed and ratified.
2. An orderly surrender by the
occupation forces of the powers
and duties of governing the coun
try.
3. Denial to the new govern
ment of (a) the industrial capaci
ty to build a modern war machine
and (b) the right to create an ar
my (which is also denied in the
Japanese constitution).
4, Final cleanup of all repara
tions questions, including disposi
tion of former Japanese enemy as
sets in allied and neutral coun=-
tries.
State Department officials, who
hope to begin consultations with
the British and others around Dec.
1, regard the American draft as a
means for establishing a new basis
for Japan’s future, not as a device
for punishing Japan for World
War 11.

All 13 who died were among the
51 patients who reached the dread
ed iron lung stage of the disease.
But svee. uyrrg these, the re

year record at Riley. During 10
years prior to this year, there had
been 107 iron lung cases at Riley.
Of these 61, or 57 per cent died.
This year, under oxygen treat

At one time when the epidemic
was at its peak last summer, there
were 26 young patients in iren
