"My fellow Americans, Jo-night we find ourselves confronted with the gravest crisis in our nation's history. "You are. fully aware -of the ultimatum which has come from the leaders of the Soviet Union.

They demand that we submit all our vital resource to the control of Russia. "This i ng situation comes at a time when we thought an amicable and fair compromise had been reached with the Kremlin; we had been assured by Russia and Red China that their encroachment would cease before reaching our shores. "It is now evident that Russia intends to dominate all of the world. We have but two choices; submit or 'fight. "This is a time for action.

The day of compromise is past. In our blindness we have permitted ourselves to be invaded by Red agents who must now be dealt with. "Already strikes are spreading all over America. Some vital industries are paralyzed. Teamsters, Longshoremen, some electrical unions 'are ordering work stoppages.

China has all of Asia, Africa, awakening unprepared, divided, helpless as a flock of ducklings circled by a drooling fox. Moscow has broadcast an ultimatum: "The United States must enter into immediate negotiations for the subordination of all defense machinery to the Soviet high command; the civil administration of the U.S. must be turned over to American citizens already entrenched In the various departments of government and already secretly taking orders from the Kremlin. AH Americans are to remain quiet and unafraid, for their liberation from capitalistic domination is now near." THE BROADCAST HAS AS-' aured the churches of America that there will be perfect "freedom of religion, though their programs will originate with a new group of leaders, friendly to the new regime." The president has summoned hi Cabinet and general staff to the White House. All radio and TV stations are Sam Dawson NEW YORK (AP) FOUR out of five corporations reporting net income after taxes show gains over the first six months of 1958.

In many cases 1939' first half set a record. For the first 259 companies to report, the over-all increase is S7.3 per cent. Many industrial giants have yet to report including the steels, oils and motors and the final figures may ahow the over-all gains even higher. In the first quarter of the year-to-year spurt was per cent. THE BIG UPSURGE IX profits is due largely to the climb in sales over the recession months of 19)8.

But other factors enter in One is that many companies cut costs sharply during the recession, trimming unnecessary overhead and luxury habits. Another is that increasingly the companies have started up 21 Pins, 33 Certificates Awarded At Milton Swim Program Closing 73 Register On First Day Of BHS Signup 51. Albans Man Hangs Himse" ST.

SOME OBSERVERS THINK the year-to-year gains in profits may be less pronounced from now on. They note that the building of new plants and ordering of new equipment slowed down a year or more ago, so that the boost to earnings from this source will be less for ewhile. Also production schedules today call for much over-time work an expense that was missing during recession day with which tomorrow's profits will be compared. AND THAT BIG ENIGMA -how long a steel strike? casts a shadow over all predictions.

Of the 259 companies to report so far, only 55 had less profits than in 1958 's first half. ported Vermont's 55th suicide of the year Monday, The body of 73-year-old Marshall Naylor was discovered hanging in the basement of his Lin coln Ave. home Monday morning by his wife, Rula. Mrs. Naylor told Police Chief George Hebert she had lain down on a couch to rest when her hus band went down to the basement.

She said that when she awoke an hour later she found dim hanging from a beam. Police said a ny Ion rope was used. A kitchen chair was nearby. Mr. Naylor, a retired World War I disabled veteran, was report ed despondent.

His words were not heard outside the studio. Network broadcast lines already had been sabotaged.

Dr. Bell, who watched the Red tide sweep across China during a quarter-century as a medical missionary there, has offered this prediction with a heavy heart: "Unless we repent from our wicked ways at home and abandon our foolishness in international politics, disaster must follow. "The cause is here now; the effect must follow. The bad seed has been sown. We must uproot it or harvest it." Both years, as always, there were some companies operating at a loss 12 this year against 19 the year before.

ONLY FOUR RAILROADS have reported so far, but the of American Railroads estimates net income for the first five months at 233 million dollars, compared with 75 million the year before. Some industries have made striking gain. In the chemicals, Du Pont reports first half earnings up 49 per cent. Union Carbide had an 81 per cent increase, Monsanto 102 per cent, and Allied Chemical and American Cy-anamid doubled theirs. INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS Machines earnings were up 29 per cent.

Conferees Still Working Hard On Labor Bill WASHINGTON (AP) Senate- Houfie conferees hammered out agreements Monday on three disputed points in the labor control bill. But they remained at odds on some of the most controversial issues. In a daylong session behind closed dcors, the conferees accepted a Senate provision which would give replaced strikers the right to vote in a bargaining election. This would wipe out a section of the Taft-Hartley law which de nies this right.

Critics have de scribed this denial as union-busting. However, the conferees put a nine-month limitation on the right. The Senate bill stipulated no such deadline. The House bill did not have a comparable provision. Reject Senate Provision The conferees rejected another important Senate provision setting up a system of prehearing elec tions in collective bargaining cases.

This was designed to prevent stalling tactics and use of time- consuming technicalities to pre vent a decision. Also killed by the conferees was a Senate provision that would have excluded service assistants in the telephone industry from the term supervisor and thus made them eligible for union member ship. This was not in the House bill. One of the toughest nuts to be cracked, if a compromise is to high courses and the remaining 23 for senior high school. Registration will continue through the week, in the library the junior high school building, to the right of the main entrance Hours are from 9 a.m.

Lyndon B. John son of lexas, the Dcmocra'ie leader, both said they, want the Senate to consider civil rights legislation before it adjourns. It just isn't true. Dirksen said, that the GOP wants to wait until 19fi0, a national election year. Johnson once more told reporters he would like to see action this session on civil rights as well as on highway financing, labor-control and other measures.

Two Opposing Factor! Their declared wishes, however, ran into two facts: adjournment fever is developing, and Southern Democrat are ready with anoth er filibuster if need be. Dirksen was stirred to take the Senate floor to dispute a report in the New York Times that ad ministration aides now prefer to have no civil rights bill reach the floor of the House or Senate this year. The reason given in this report: The administration figures there would be a better chance for a strong civil rights measure next year. Suggestions for putting the whole thing over have come up based on the idea that the issue could split the Democratic party a presidential year, fcucn a split in 1948 cost the party four states in the South. But Dirksen, telling the Senate the GOP doesn't ptay politics on civil rights, said there was no tru'h in the report the administration wants delay.

He said that for one thing, he has spent long hours trying to get the Senate Judiciary Committee to give the Senate an opportunity to vote on civil rights legislation at this session.
