C. -— Although $9,394 596.72 was col ected by the North Carolina Dis trict Bureau of Customs here at Wilmington during the 1945-46 fis cal year, the Port of Wilmington accounted for only $108,826.84 of the amount, customs officials dis closed yesterday. The bulk of the total was collect ed in branch offices in other paits of the State, such as Winston Salem and Elkin, the officials said. The reason for the Port City’s poor showing, it was explained, is the small amount of river traffic using the local port. Almost all the goods on which customs duty is collected is shipped in bond into the State from ports such as Nor folk, Va., and Baltimore, Md., it was said. Despite thg fact that the total State collection for 1945-46 was about a million and a half dodars more than the $7,736,941.65 figure for 1944-45, Wilmington 1945-46 fig ure was far under its $472,870.15 mark for, 1944-45. tion in the June 25 primary, but who resigned recently to accept a position with the Wachovia Bank and Trust company in Winston Salem. Walker was opposed in the pri mary by Robert Weinstein, who did not file with the executive com mittee as a candidate for nomina tion. Biggs is believed to be one of the youngest men ever nominated for any county or state political post. He received 23 of the 28 votes cast by representatives of Robe son’s 34 precincts. Chairman E. M Johnson presided. The nominee was graduated from the law school of Wake Forest and took one semester of graduate W'ork at Harvard University before opening a law office here last March.

Chou En-Lai, chief Communist negotiator, speed ed back to the capital from Shang hai at the request of General Mar shal, special American envoy. Before leaving Shanghai, Chpu told foreign correspondents in an interview that the Communists wanted an unconditional truce with no time limit. Once this is achiev ed, he added, the way would be paved for a reorganization of the government, long sought by the Communists. Want Railroad Chou said he had heard indirect ly that the Central government would insist on taking over the South Lunghai railroad from the Communists as a condition for a new truce. “If this is so, civil war will con tinue and expand,” the Communist general said. Ridiculing reports that the Com munists intended to attack in the direction of Nanking and Shang hai, Chou said his party’s attitude was to press for a cessation of hostilities and arrange for dis patching truce teams into the field. Rails Patrolled Armored trains, however, began a patrol of the Shanghai Nanking and Shanghai - Hangchow - Ningpo railroads, a Shanghai dispatch said. These steps were taken follow ing the alleged appearance of seve ral hundred Communists near the industrial town of Wusih on the Shanghai-Nanking railroad. Thp band reportedly vanished under pursuit of railway guards. Radio Charges The Communist radio at Enan re ported Thursday that fierce fight ing continued in Shantung, Kiangsu, Shausi and the Anhwei border re gion. It charged that 500,000 govern ment troops in several central pro vinces sought the “total extermina tion of some 50,000 Communist-led troops, mostly veterans of the war against Japan. Movement Halted Movement of dismantled barrack from Camp Davis to the Cullowhee Brevard section in the western part of the state was halted yes terday by the State Highway and Public Works commission, accord ing to an Associated Press dis patch from Raleigh. Although some of the barracks have already been moved, rhe com mission officials said that the per mit for the work, which is con sidered dangerous on the highways, has not yet been granted. No complaints have been receiv TRUMAN WILL NOT SPEAK WHILE AWAY ON MISSOURI TRIP WASHINGTON, July 25 —(IF)— President Truman declared Thurs day he had no intention of taking the stump in Missouri against Rep. Roger C. Slaughter. I Asked at his news conference | whether he will make any speech against the Democratic representa tive whose renomination he op poses, the President replied in the negative. He has no intention Mr. Truman said, of making any speeches in Missouri when he goes there next month. Mr. Truman will fly to his home at Independence, Aug 3 and will vote in the Democratic primary there the following Tuesday, Aug. 6. Slaughter is running for re nomination in a district which ad joins that in which the President maintains his residence.

He also said he would take the stump this fall if necessary to aid the Democratic congressional cam paign. _ ed regarding use of the highways in moving surplus buildings from Camp Davis to Washington, D.
