The federal government today
indicated it would crack down on
unions and company heads alike in
an attempt to end the growing
wave of strikes in key defense in
dustries throughout the nation.
First inkling of future federal
policy was made when the OPM
ordered the immediate reopening
of the Strike-bound Allis-Chalmers
plant in Milwaukee.
Clio unionists in Milwaukee
maintained that the reopening de-
pended upon the company making
it possible while company officials
said the return-to-work depended
on the union.
Union leaders said the strike
would continue until the men,

His ancestors fought with guns
and daggers for the right to rule.
His family has suffered more AS
sassinations than any other ruling
clan. His palace has often run
with blood.
But King Peter II Of Yugoslavia
asserted himself today in the time
honored tradition of the Kara
georgeyitch clan. At II years Of
age. he seized pnwer from his
ministers and from his uncle,
placed himself on the throne and
launched Yugosiavia on the first

cannot be predicted.
The boy kings sudden cne1-

Europe was in keeping with the
theatrical traditions of the Kara

Besides, If the operation was a
success, the cat would lose her

wouldn't be much point in that
because the cat appears to be
quite happy as she is.
There have been other cats
that became famous because of
physical handicaps. Readers Of
The American Weekly will recall
the story of Curley, a big gray
cat who was the pet Of Danny
Sexton cook of a lumber camp in
o. the Moosehead Lake section of
Maine. This cat had his leg
pinched off in a steel trap, so his
master made him a wooden one

animal was afflicted in the same

Cockeyed Muzzy may not go
where she's looking, but she al
ways looks where she's going and
she can stalk a rat with the
smartest of tabbies. Her one
