Common Frontier Given Hungary.
In the breakup of Czecho- -Slo-
vakia, Hungary acquired the Car
patho- Ukraine region of the dis
solved republic, peopled by Ukrain-
ians who are allied to the Ukrainian
population of Russia.
This acquisition, also, gave Hun

tern treaty and a Junior partner OF
the axis, a common frontier with
the U. S. S. r.
Russia's first show of disapproval
of events in the Balkans which have
grown into full-scale war was after
Bulgaria opened her frontiers to
Adolf Hitler's legions.
Moscow, on March 3, informed the
Bulgarian government that Russia

Bulgarian government as to the cor

question arose of what Turkish re-
action might be, Russia gave Turkey
assurance that she would not be
caught between the crushing might
of Nazi and Red Army power.
On March Is, Turkey received
from Russia pledge of benevolent
and helpful neutrality in case the
Turks were attacked by Germany.
The Ankara government gave Mos
COW a reciprocal pledge.
Finally, after the Yugoslav gov
ernment which aligned Belgrade
with the axis had been promptly
overthrown by coup headed by Gen.
Simovic, Russia, on April 5, an
nounced treaty of friendship and
non-aggression with the new Yugo-
slav government.
Although Germany has contended
that Yugoslav militancy brought on
the conflict, the Soviet press has de-
clared repeatedly that Yugoslavia
sought peace.

McCarran May Head
District Committee,
Capitol Hill Hears
Friends Hint Nevudun
Moy Tuke Chuirmonship
He Once Rejected

Senator McCarran, Democrat, OF
Nevada may accept the chalrman-
ship of the Senate District Commit
tee if Senator Reynolds, Democrat.
of North Carolina relinquishes it to
take over the Military Affairs Com
mittee, according to wel-informed
sources on Capitol Hill.
The subject will remain in the
speculative stage until formal action
is taken to fill the Military Commit
tee chairmanship left vacant by the
death of Senator Sheppard Of
Texas. Senator Reynolds is in line
for it under the seniority rule-and
Senator McCarran threw no light
on the question yesterday.
Although Senator McCarran de-
clined the District post three months
ago. before Senator Reynolds was
appointed, some of his friends are
of the opinion he has not closed the
door against acceptance at this time.
The Nevada Senator has been a
diligent member of the committee
for eight years, during which time
he has been brought into contact
with major problems confronting
the National Capital.
If the chairmanship becomes
vacant, Senator McCarran is the
next Democrat in line, after those
who already have other chairman
ships. The seniority rule would
give rim first choice, assuming
Senator's Glass of Virginia, Tydings
of Maryland and Bankhead of Ala
bama retain chairmanships they al
ready hold.
If Senator McCarran finally de-
cides to pass up his claim, the next
in line is Senator Bilbo of Missis-
sippi, and, after him, Senators
Overton of Louisiana and Clark of
Idaho. Senator Bilbo was in Mis-
sissippi when Senator Sheppard
died, and went to Texas to attend
the funeral yesterday.

Maximum prices already have been
set for machine tools, zinc, soft
coal, scrap aluminium and scrap iron
and steel.
The Government will try to pre-
vent any unwarranted price rises
for these and other commodities
through economic restrictions on
those who fail to cooperate rather
than by seeking legal punishment,
Mr. Henderson indicated.
The price administrator voiced
confidence that the President has
provided his agency with sufficient
enforcement powers, but he empha-
sized that "our biggest weapon is
going to be the moral support of
the community"
Economic restrictions that his
agency might use, should the
emergency demand, Mr.. Henderson
intimated, include curbing the vio-

of transportation.

"If we get to the place where
reliance is on economic sanctions
or legal punishments," he explained,

our production effort. No amount
of punishment or jail sentences will
give us the additional supplies we
will need"
In response to questions, Mr..
Henderson said he would oe inter-
ested in "unWarranted wage in
creases" in industry should they
cause price rises.
'How would you determine wheth-
er a wage increase in any par
ticular case was unwarranted?" he
was asked.

Exchange Commission and other
Government regulatory agencies.

One of the most significant develop
ments on the labor front in national
defense was the statement of policy
on this subject adopted by the Metal
Trades department of the American
Federation of Labor at a conference
here in Washington January Bird and
4th. This department comprises Is
international unions which cover most
of the major crafts involved in de-
Tense production, such as machinists,
molders and blacksmiths.
Pledging full cooperation of the
unions in the defense effort, the state
ment went on to say that there must
be no stoppage of work" and advoca-
ted the widest possible direct collec-
tive bargaining between employers and
employees through their chosen repre-
sentatives, with agreements reached to
provide for voluntary arbitration. When
direct negotiations fail, the statement
added, "the services of the Division
of Cancellation, Department of Labor,
must be speedily secured. Should this
Cancellation not establish prompt re-
suits, then arbitration must be ap-
piled :. These are the methods of
democracy applied to national emer-
gency.
This is, in effect, a direct indorse-
ment of the principles of waiting or
cooling off period and Cancellation eff
forts in the Minnesota Labor Relations
act, which many of us believe could
well be applied to this labor relations
problem in defense production. Enact
ment of federal statute similar to the
Minnesota law would merely provide
by legislation for the procedures which
the Metal Trades Department advo-
Gates be adopted by employers and
employees.
The Buildings Trades Department of
the A. F. of L. adopted similar
statement of policy a few days later.
Incidentally, if such a procedure were
adopted, it would make the G. I. O.'s
Sidney Hillman, who represents Labor
as associate director of the new Office
for Production Management, about as
necessary as fifth wheel. It is pos
sible these powerful A. F. of L. groups
had that in mind when they acted.

furnish Ely with an adequate and
pure water supply. Reports were heard
from several state officials and Oliver
Mining company engineers and B. S.
Richards of the Pickands, Mather
company and the concensus of opinion
seemed to be that BURNSIDE lake water
should be piped to the city. 1t was
also the opinion of Mayor Trezona and
Aldermen S. A. Banoovetz, H. j. Homer,
John Kapsch, H. E. Olson, Ivan Tau

side plan was feasible and most adj
vantageous to the city and that the

to the distance Of the car from the

exposures, the camera must be

Another interesting stunt Is to
take a short time exposure of the

a few seconds exposure will be
needed for such shot, and it will
add interest to your snapshot col
