Speaking as national liberal lead er in the first two days of debate on the loan and the Bretton Woods monetary and economic plan, Si mon said he did not reproach the United States but thought it bet ter to speak frankly. "We valued American friendship in a world which was rather dark for us,” Lord Simon said. “The United States came out of the war with increased power to produce and with unlimited resources while our effort has left us enfeebled. The loan agreement is disappointing and some of us would say a hard bargain. “With these dollars and with further loans which Canada has promised and to which Canada attaches no such conditions we must struggle through. I think the loan is essential. If these essen tial dollars can only be obtained on these severe terms that is a reason for regret and disappoint ment but it is not a reason for re jection." o Widows Mix-Up In Estate Claim Wilmington, Dec. —Claim to be the legal widow, Mrs. Miriam De berry Sollee, of Edgecombe county, today brought suit in New Hanover County court disputing the admin istrix of the estate of the late L.

Authority for that statement comes from Collin Abbitt, of the City Water Department, where measurements are kept.

Heaviest fall occurred Tuesday, when four inches of snow fell dur ing the day and night and was then packed down with sleet, the combined effects of which are still being felt on slippery and ice-coated streets. The other snows occurred last Thursday, with one and one-half inches, and again Saturday .with the same number of inches recorded, j Begun today in the downtown | section by the City Water and) Street cleaning department in co operation with the State Highway ■ force, was the spreading of a cal cium chloride flakes or lime chlo- j ride, which like salt cause the ice j to melt by drawing out water and j thawing it. Applications have been chiefly on hills in the center of the city and shady spots where ice still clings, according to Abbitt. Most directly benefitted by the snow of Tuesday were some several hundred school children and young ( people who gained an extra two | days of Christmas holidays when the j schools in both the city and county j were closed as of Wednesday morn- : ing. The schools, however, were scheduVgiJ to o'osa nn Thipse’-ty af ternoon. They will' remain closed until, Monday, December 31.
