One of the four was described as largest believed destroyed in this "dry" county.

No arrests were reported in any of the four rajas. The latest raid was made in the Jenkins Chapel section and about one mile from the church in Silver Creek township.

What was described officers as the largest illicit whisky distilling outfit ever seized in Burke County was destroyed November 20 and was found set up in an otherwise unoccupied rural home, a 10- minute drive from downtown Morganton. Officers said the still had been well constructed in the basement and electric pumps were used for water and transferring of mash in the distilling process.

Twenty-two large wooden boxes containing some 6,000 gallons of beer mash were in the basement along with 3 quantity of white whisky er pty fruit jars and other things. Several hundred feet of rubber hose were required in the operation.

Sand Hill Grammar Classes Meet Today; High School Off Classes at Sand Hill High School won't be resumed until tomorrow morning because of the Saturday afternoon fire, but the grammar grades will open this morning as usual. This was announced yesterday by County Schools Superintendent C. Roberson. Roberson also said the high school faculty was to report at the school this morning.

Meanwhile, Chief E. Mack Salley of tr: American Enka Fire Department said last night the investigation to determine the cause of the blaze was continuing. The fire caused an estimated $25,000 to 000 damage to the south wing. At the same time Salley declared that fire hydrants should be located close to the school buildings, warning that "we were just lucky" in last summer's West Buncombe School and last Friday's Sand Hill school fires. Salley said it took 3.200 to 3.500 feet of hose to lay three lines from the single hydrant in front of the Sand Hill School building to fight the fire in the wing at the rear.

It took three trucks to do this job, he said. The hydrants, he said, should be no more than 500 feet a from the building. This would permit firemen to lay two lines quickly. To start the fight against the West Buncombe fire, it took three fire trucks to lay 1,500 to 1.600 feet of hose for only one line from the nearest hydrant to the school building. The damage from this blaze.

Salley said, was "limited" to $30,000 to $35,000. The Enka fire chief said that Meetings, Events Asheville Calendar TODAY 9:30 -Burley tobacco sales begin on Asheville market, Dixie Warehouse No. 1, Craven St. 1 -Jaycees, George Hotel. 7 p.m.- Western District Farm Bu.

Britain CARDIFF, Wales, Nov. 29 (P) Aneurin Bevan today demanded that Britain stop cooperating with the United States unless Washington recognizes Communist China. Bevan, leader of the Labor party's left wing, told a political rally "Anglo-American relationship would benefit from a little straight talking." He added: "We say the first condition of any relaxation in world tensionthe first settlement of world lems must be based on a recognition of the people's government of China. And the United States must be told further cooperation between us them is contingent upon that fact." Bevan charged newspapers in Britain and the United States had misrepresented recent Soviet policy as closing the door to negotiations. He declared: "I am not saying Russian policy has been wise.
