Waukesha Council Strikes Off Street Parking Clause
Amid protests by five aldermen the council removed a provision requiring off street loading facilities for commerce from the new zoning ordinance. Alderman Newman led opposition citing traffic and curb congestion while others urged limits on unloading and hours. The move also touched cab fare regulation as an ordinance was sent to committee and a postponement set for a school board meeting.

Aldermen Battle to Draw Over Silurian Park Sale
The common council ended in a draw last night over selling Silurian park for development. The finance committee was authorized about two years ago to sell if a buyer surfaced, but the issue was sent to the park board and planning commission for 80 days of study. Ald. Lawrence Werner proposed sale citing tax value and water quality, while Ald. Harry Franson urged keeping the park following historic votes. Mayor Honeyager allowed the referral, and the motion passed with little opposition.

Wedemeyer urges U S aid to Chiang Kai-Shek in face of communism
Lt General Albert Wedemeyer pressed the United States to provide military supplies and economic aid to Chiang Kai-Shek's nationalist government to counter Communism. He refused to hand the top secret China report to the Senate committee, citing White House orders.

The aid would accompany the emergency foreign aid bill signed by President Truman, though the actual China appropriation remains pending in the House. A separate notice reports Richard S Becker enlisting in the 32nd Airborne division and heading to Fort Sheridan for final medicals.
