IF YOUR HOUSE BURNS D O W N -

IT your home should burn, it is still going to cost you a lot more than you probably think it will to rebuild it or buy a new house.

Don't keep thinking about what your house cost you in the first place, maybe years ago. Building costs and home values have • risen greatly /in recent years. Think: How much would it'cost me to duplicate it tomorrow?

If you are like the average home owner, you are still prob­ably way under-insured and should talk to us mighty soon (maybe this minute) about in­creasing the amount of your fire insurance coverage.

Boundless power is. offered us through prayer if we will only use it, the speaker declared, and through it we can obtain the peace of mind we so greatly need today.

CIO Textile Workers Union of­ficial says a strike threat of woolen-worsted workers next Mon­day in a large part of the in­dustry is "almost completely" ended.

John Chupka, woolen and worsted director of the union, said last night that only eight mills—employing some 21,000 workers—have not agreed to ex­tend contracts ending at midnight tonight.

He said two of the mills were in New England—the Branch River Wool Combing Co. of Woon-socket, R. L, and the Paragon Worsted Mills of Providence, R. I. The others include the large Botany Mills and the New Jersey Worsted Mills, both of Passaic, N. J.

Chupka said conferences would be held today with managements of the eight plants\ and that the union "is hopeful of reaching agreements before the contracts actually expire."-

He said the union statement that a strike threat "has been al­most completely obviated" was made possible because the union "has been successful in renewing old contracts for one year with 12 firms, employing 6,000 workers."

An extension of 30 days also was agreed to in 28 additional mills, including 21 of the Ameri­can Woolen Co. These additional mills employ 21,000 workers.

dents of the East Main Street area, Nelliston, are protesting a recently-announced plan to build a drive-in theater on the former Rozelle Dygert propertyv at the east edge of the village on-Route 5.

Dorpian Head Of D emocrats For Kefauver

Schenectady County support to the Presidential candidacy of Sen­ator Estes Kefauver has been pledged by Democratic County Chairman John English. • English, organization - backed delegate to the national convention in Chicago in July, said. that "shadowy representatives" of a national . crime syndicate are "using- perenially disgruntled Democrats as a front" in attempt "to take control of our local Democratic party." .

Montgomery County Chairman John Kosinski, who like English will be an organization delegate to the convention if." backing is obtained in the Spring. primaryi said today that he would have a statement to make "in the near future." Both delegates are being opposed by insurgent party fac­tions. ,,_ •

Giving his reasons for support­ing Kefauver. Chairman English said:

"I am an ardent admirer of Sen­ator Kefauver, and I agree with the Senator's evaluation of his vic­tory in the New Hampshire pri­mary that the victory was in no way a repudiation of the Demo­cratic administration, but rather a desire on the part of the' people for new faces and new ideals in government. ~

"I • also admired Senator Ke-fauver's searching investigation into the existence of a syndicated control of crime in the United States. In spite of tremendous pressures, he revealed to the pub­lic spotlight the criminal leaders of the syndicate itself.

"It is my belief that the condi­tions .the Kefauver committee has shown to us tie in with our local situation, where shadowy repre­sentatives of that syndicate, us­ing perennially disgruntled Demo­crats as a front, are attempting to take over control of our local Democratic Party, the Schenec-tady_chairman commented.

Heart Assembly Opens in Albany ALBANY, March 15—UP)—A

prediction -that 10Q.OO0 New York­ers will suffer acute heart at­tacks this year underlined today the problem being tackled by New York State's first Heart Assembly.

The prediction was made last night by Dr. Morton L Levin, as­sistant State Health Commission­er, in an address to 180 physicians, heart specialists, public health officials and lay leaders in the campaign against heart disease.

Levin said a majority of those stricken would recover. From one-half to two-thirds of the 100.-000 would be able to go back to their jobs, he estimated.

"But In each instance," Levin said, "a serious problem of medi­cal care, several weeks to several mqnihs of disability, and the need for"?personal, social and' work ad­justment will arise."

The state official said it was the task of the assembly to "plan for the complete and efficient use of all existing resources and for the creation of whatever addition­al facilities, may be needed in each community^ to ensure that heart and artery disease may be pre­vented and its harmful effects re­duced to the fullest extent pos­sible."

The Assembly, sponsored by the State Charities Aid Association, ends today.

Women's Club The March meeting of the Busi­

ness, and Professional Women'! Club of Amsterdam held at Hotel Peter Schuyler, Wednesday' eve­ning, was arranged by the safety committee. Following the dinner, William G. Penney, assistant supervisor of safety of the Mo­hawk Carpet Mills, showed a film, entitled, "What Is Your Safety

Q.?"

A series of pictures was shown o.i home safety, recreation safety and traffic safety and they con­tained several errors which the audience were to detect in a given amount of time. According to the movie, more accidents occur in the home or on vacation than on the job. Speeding, not keeping to right of the road and alcohol ac­count for approximately 30,000 accidents every year. There are about 15,000 accidents per year in the home.

At. the conclusion of the movie, various topics were discussed. Mr. Penney told the group that the employes are made safety-con­scious through .movies, contests and numerous discussions. The loss of time due to .accidents has sharply decreased since 1947 as a result of education, engineering improvements and various regula­tions. Many questions were asked by the members relative to work­men's compensation and there was some discussion about the traf­fic' accident rate in Montgomery County.

Dr. Marion Collins, chairman, assisted by Miss Iona Vosburg, Dr. Ursula Malpass and Miss Eileen Playford, was in charge of the program.

Mrs. Grace Rutherford presided over the business meeting. Mrs. Gladys Brunson read the secre­tary's report and the treasurer's report was read by Mrs. William Hotallng. A resume of the activi­ties of the Federated Clubs of the Fourth District was read by Mrs. Rutherford. Because of the crea­tion of new clubs and the presence of many more in a nebulous state, it has become necessary to appoint an assistant district director who is Miss Dorothy Wells, Johnstown. The club endorsed Dr. Margaret Fisher as the next state president, . The remainder - of the evening w •' devoted to preparations for the Fourth District meeting which will be held in Amsterdam, April 26. It was suggested that a speak­er on the topic of mental health be secured either from the State Charities Aid, a private organ­ization, or the State Department which has a roster of speakers. The dinner arrangements have al­ready been completed.

Mrs. Rutherford appointed the following as chairmen of the com-p*!ttees: Reception, Mrs* Evelyn DeGolyer, Grace Hamill.Mrs. Wil­liam Brown and Mrs. Florence Burns; table decorations, Mrs. Wil­liam Hotaling; room decorations, Eileen Playford; transportation, Mrs. Ann Johnson; souvenirs, Ruth Capala; overnight accomodations, Mrs. Jane Blood; program, Miss Jane Rulison; entertainment, Mrs. Rutherford; speaker, Dr. Marion Collins; registration, Mrs. Irene Wood; tickets, Mrs. Hotaling, and parking, Miss Harriet' Chant.
