1t was indicated that they might
be operated by Alcoa, the Reynolds
Metals Co. or another private con-
Germ under an arrangement similar
to that for tank factory at Detroit
which is owned by the Government
and managed by the Chrysler Corp.
Meanwhile, G. r. Gibbons, senior
vice president of Alcoa, told the
Senate committee investigating the
defense program that when the De-
fense Advisory Commission an
nounced last November that there
was sufflcient aluminium to meet all
civilian and military requirements,
his company was already unable to
fill civilian orders. The company,
he said, was not consulted before
the announcement was issued.
M. B. Folsom, treasurer of the
Eastman Kodak Co. and formerly q
Defense Commission official, ex-
planned that the November an
nouncement was based on Army and
Navy estimates that 100000, 900
pounds of aluminium per year would
meet emergency requirements. The
present estimate for next year is
1900 ,000,0 900 pounds for military re-
quirements.

Receive Argentine
Foreign Minister
Enrique de Ruiz-Guinozu
Guest at White House
Meeting and Luncheon
BY JOHN C. HENRY.

President Roosevelt and Secretary
Of State Hull received the Argentine
Foreign Minister, Enrique de Ruiz
Guinazu, in a White House confer
ence today which was expected to
deal principally with Pan-American
solidarity.
The Argentine Minister has been
In Washington since Tuesday and

Bogota, Colombia.
The President and Mr.. Hull ar
ranged for a half-hour conference

lowed by formal White House

Argentine Ambassador, and Gull
lermo Uriburu, secretary of the Ar
gentine Embassy in London. Others
invited were Undersecretary of State
Sumner Welles and Chairmen
George of the Senate Foreign Re-

/, Earlier in the day the President
talked to Gerard Swope, retired in
dustrialist and now a member of the
National Defense Mediation Board
panel which has been attempting to
settle the General Motors strike
threat.
Mr.. Swope would make no COM
ment on the General Motors case as
he left the White House, except to
say that the Mediation Board ex-
pected a settlement agreement to-
night.
Asked at his press conference if
the President had intervened di-
rectly in the General Motors Stiua-
ton, Mr.. Early said he had no
knowledge of such action, and that
if there had been any, it must have
been through the Mediation Board.
Mr.. Early said the President was
feeling fine after his weeks conya-
lescence from stomach ailment,
and was expected to be back in the
executive Offices for his regular press
conference tomorrow morning.

Plugging Of Export-Control
loophoIe Uraed on House

Application of the export-control
law to the Philippine Islands would
close a loophole in the American
system set up for keeping supplies
out Of Axis hands, Representative
Crawford, Republican, of Michigan,
told the House today in prepared
speech advocating extending the law
to the islands.
Mr.. Crawford quoted Vincente
villamin, Filipino economist, in tell
ing the House that the export-con-
troll law is liable to be rendered
ineffective so long as the Philippines
are outside its scope.
He said shipments can go from
the United States to the Philippines
to Russia and from Russia either to
Japan or to the Central European
Axis states. He said that Germany
would like large quantities of Phil
ippine products such as copra and
coconut oil for food and glycerin.

, STORIES
 IN STAMPS.
Hitler Needs Resources Of Russian Agriculture

THE vast resources of Russian < agriculture, for which Hitler saw fit to wage a two-front war were partially developed by K. A Timiryasev, an obscure Russian scientist.
 Few Americans have heard oi him. He was professor of agri- cultural and biological sciences, did much to improve Russian farming and soil development.
 The Russian government in 1940 honored Timfryasev phila- telically in series of stamps commemorating the 20th anniver- sary of his death. The 60k stamp above shows his monument in Moscow.
 Timiryasev was born in St. Petersburg (now Leningrad) !, May p, l843. He published his first scientific volume in 1884 65, graduated from Moscow Uni versity in 1866.
 His research in the fields of plant physiology, evolution and Darwinism and his world-famous work "Sun, Life and Chlorophyp are exceedingly valuable studies.
 He was given honorary degrees for his work by the universities of Cambridge, Glasgow and Geneva and the Royal Society of London.

 You've got to hand it to him" Sue Bishop murmured. "The mans good and there's no denying it."
 I'm not denying it," Barbara countered. He's terrific-as a polo player, of course. There hasn't been a better rider on this field since Tommy Hitchcock played here five years ago."
 Sue arched surprised eyebrow "All that from you?"

 "Yon Mister Grover doesn't dc so badly, himself" Sue observed He's playing a better game than ever, or hadn't you noticed?".
 Barbara agreed, but as the horses thCndered up and down the field her eyes somehow always managed to pick out the Briar Hill No. man
 She didn't know Uncle Hank had come up until he spoke.
 From enc extreme to the other, said Uncle Hank, nodding in the general direction of Dugan.
 What do you mean?"
 He grinned. "A week ago you were complaining about the utter lack of nasculinity in these parts , Now you've got sample which has you all begging for mercy"
 And if that's only a sample" Sue cracked, "just think what would happen if he were the actual product"

Dugan dragged Barbara down the hall to her uncle's room, knocked a couple of times and entered.

 He looked from one to the other Barbara sat, still stunned by Dugan's explosive action.
 T can't say much more right now, Hank" Dugan continued. Tn a few days I'll give you the details. However, that proposition from Midwest had absolutely nothing to do with the fact that I advised you to sell that tract of land to them a couple of days ago.
 You'll just have to believe me, that's all, Hank. Still further, for your information, had no inten- tion of leaving your organization for any price. You should have known that. was going to ask you for . three months leave of ab- sence. Yes, was going over to Mid west for 90 days-with your per mission"

 Hank Chase extended his hand. "Dugan, I don't know what's in the wind, but I'm a little ashamed of myself to think what did. After all these years knowing you since you were kid in torn brooches. I'm sorry, Dugan. Forgive me?"
 The hard lines Dugan Blake'S face softened. He gripped Hank Chase's hand
 Then he returned to Barbara. I'm sorry you called me thief" he said strangely. His voice had 8 brittle tinge to it. And I'll be very glad to move out of your house." He bowed slightly.
 Dugan, Strolling past the house the next day shortly after lunch, wandered over to 8 group watching Sue Bishcp shoot arrows at a big target 40 feet away. "Come here, Barbara" she called disgustedIy. T never was any good at this stuff in school and I'm worse now. Show the folks how an expert bends this hunk of wood, will your"
 ,, Barbara, Sprawled on the grass, laughed and got to her feet. She took the bow from Sue and in rapid succession put three arrows into the blue circle next to the small golden bulls eye. A murmur of admiration rose from the group watching.
 Dugan Blake couldn't resist the impulse: He found himself walk ing out and taking the bow from Barbara'S unprotesting hand.
 Quickly fitting an arrow to the string, he sighted briefly and let fly. It smacked into the gold center. So did a second arrow. The third practically split his first two.
 He handed the. bow back to Bar bara. Talents no end" he mocked, and he saw her lips tighten.
 Barbara saw the griTs on the en- circled faces as Dugan walked away.
 Sue whispered over her shoulder. "It's about time you gave up, don't you think, before this gang dis covers he can even thread needle faster than you"
 Knowing what I do about needles and the art of threading them, I'm pretty well convinced that he can, !" Barbara replied gloomily.
 
 T hope you're not disappointed in me-" Dugan told Larry as he tried on the boots which had been loaned to him. "You easterns play mighty tough brand of polo, and I'm not kidding myself, either" Larry snorted. Listen, guy. From what I've heard about the way you handle horse and mallet, I'm just wondering whether we can keep up with you. Let's go"
 They trottcd past string of cars as they came onto the field. Larry waved at Barbara seated on the rear of 8 convertible. Dugan rode past without so much as a glance.
 Larry placed Dugan at the hard riding No. 1 position, and instantly Dugan felt a jingle shoot through him. It felt good, sitting on a smart, fast pony again. It felt good. too, to lunge at the ball, hear and feel the rneaty crack as wood con- nected with wood.
 In the first chukker, he scored two goals, one of them on solo dash up the field on a 60-yard final terrific smash through the posts.
 Mice goingl" Larry yelled, and Dugan grinned back.
 On the sidelines Barbara turned begrudgilng but appreciative eyes on the dark-faced No. who looked as though he was part of the horse rather than rider, as he rode off the enemy and swung
