Town Is Divided Warden to Let 12-Year Old Slayer Out to Attend School Worst Floods Of Year Hit MiddleWest North Dakota Gets From 5 to 20 Inches Of Snow in Storm CHICAGO, Feb. 28 (U.R) Swollen and ice-choked rivers sent their waters off on scattered scat-tered spring floods today while old man Winter sank his talons , in North Dakota and put that state and part of Minnesota practically out of business. High winds added their voice to other areas' weather troubles and there was even a slight earthquake earth-quake in New England. The snowfall which blanketed North Dakota ranged from five to 20 inches and was so heavy in most localities that the state highway high-way department gave up and told the snow plow crews to 'come on in." Only daredevil motorists bent on emergency missions ventured out on the highways today. Beneath the snow was three to five inches of ice resulting from yesterday's rains and last night's sudden temperature drop. Twenty-two cities in northern Minnesota were without tele-: phone service, power lines were down in others, and old settlers along the Red River Valley of Minnesota and North Dakota described des-cribed the storm as "the worst in years." The floods played no favorites and struck at widely separated areas.

And 28 per cent of those polled said they would never use the powerful A-bomb. Ta ft Opens Attack On Democrats CLEVELAND. Feb. 28 (U.R) Sen. Robert A. Taft, R., O., opened open-ed an attack on the Democrats tonight by charging that their fiarty, far from being liberal "Jf nstead, the party of progressive decay, broken into three or four different factions." President Truman, he said, "is riding a Democratic don- kMtt that has neither hear nor tail. Ills party is completely ineffective." The Ohio senator told a dinner meeting of the Cuyahoga county Republican organization that 'Truman opened this campaign year last week. The thought that by calling the Democrats liberal 50 times in one speech, he could make them liberal. "He couldn't, so he called the Republican party names. This will be as much a failure." Taft, opening a drive for Republican Re-publican convention delegates in his home state, said President Truman "while proclaiming a campaign for civil rights, disregarded dis-regarded the obvious fact that civil rights have been in the Republican Re-publican platform since 1944." The Democrats, he said, "have talked of these rights for 15 years but have done nothing about them. "They also have talked about social security, but done little." In a fighting speech the Ohio presidential aspirant maintained that if the Democrats were returned re-turned to power "taxes will remain re-main high and go even higher, and federal spending will increase in-crease from $40,000,000,000 yearly to nearer $60,000,000,000." The president, Taft said, "wants complete control of prices, wages and rationing in the failure of OPA and lack of production. If he is returned, we likely will have universal military training, nationalization of medicine, production pro-duction controls on farms nothing noth-ing that would Indicate a liberal program, but instead a complete regimentation of the people."

He pleaded guilty to second degree murder last week and arrived at the state prison under a sentence that will free him when he is 21. Best said he was not disturbed by the furore.

Best's next step was to notify the principal of Washington grade school that James would be bicycling bicy-cling to classes dally from state prison. The principal was startled, referred the matter to the school- board. Meanwhile, the parents of the school's children heard about it and protested.

However, Mrs. George Steeples, Ste-eples, who has a grandson in the 6th grade which Jimmy would at tend, said: "I would prefer to wait.

Federal Aid Funds Needed to Keep Up Road Construction WASHINGTON, Feb. 28 (U.R) Federal works administrator Philip B. Fleming warned today that highway construction will be stymied unless congress au thorizes further federal aid funds at this session. Fleming asked a senate public works subcommittee to authorize author-ize - $500,000,000 a year for federal fed-eral aid "at least" for fiscal years 1950 and 1951. He also asked for $71,000,000 a year for federal roads in national forests, national parks and Indian reservations. State highway departments, he said, realize a federal aid author tzation lor fiscal year 1849 "may well be omitted" since high prices and material shortages have held up scheduled construction under the federal aid act of 1944.

Radio Moscow Reveals Text Of Stalin Note LONDON, Feb. 28 (U.R) Premier Pre-mier Josef Stalin's letter to Finnish Fin-nish President Jules K. Paasikivi suggested that Russia and Finland Fin-land sign a mutual assistance pact to prevent future aggression by Germany, and was calm and courteous cour-teous in tone. Radio Moscow revealed re-vealed tonight in broadcasting the text of the letter. Stalin did not demand a treaty, did not give Finland any kind of ultimatum and did not mention aggresison by any power except Germany, the text showed. "If there are no objections on the part of Finland," he wrote, "I would propose-that a Finnish delegation be sent to the USSR for conclusion of such a pact." Stalin then offered to send a Soviet delegation to Helsinki Hel-sinki if Paasikivi considered it "more convenient to carry on negotiations' 'in the Finnish Fin-nish capital. The text was released to the official Soviet news agency Tass and broadcast by Moscow radio as pessimism swept Finland and western Europe speculated that the Finns would meet a fate similar simi-lar to Czechoslovakia's.
