Mrs. Caraway Sees Fight
Over Presidential Powers
By TIE Associated Press,

By TIE Associated Press.
LITTLE ROCK, Ark, Aug. 1e.-
Senator Caraway, Democrat, of
Arkansas said last night there was
a bitter battle" in prospect when
Congress attempted to regain war
time powers granted the executive
branch.
The Nations only woman Senator
told the Arkansas Farmers Union
Convention that many believe that
when peace comes there will be an
effort to retain these wartime con-
trolls"
There is in the making a bitter
battle over this situation and the
inevitable effort by Congress to re-
tain its power" she asserted
Congress cannot run this war.
But it has done its duty. 1t has
given the administration every law
and dollar that it has asked.
Congress has been subjected to
much criticism. Some of it has
been justified, and some of it has
not. Some of the complaints against
Congress have been based upon the
belief that it is responsible for all
errors of omission or commission in
matters affecting our Nation. This
is not true"

MEMPHIS, Tenn, Aug. 1e-The
contemplate spirit of personal and
group relationships" is responsible
for "confusions and stoppages which
slow the onward rush of our over
whelming triumph" said Postmaster
General Frank c. Walker in an
address before the Knights of
Columbus Supreme Council last
night.
Speaking at the convention BAN
quet, the Postmaster General bit
terly attacked what he called "the

persons or of groups, who with
mincing words about national in
terests, foster their own designs
while our people engage in a death
struggle with foreign enemies"
The council called up as its first
order Of business today the election
OF a supreme treasurer and five
members OF its board Of directors.
The election for treasurer was made
necessary by the death early this
year OF D. j. Callahan of Washing
eoA1, ~. Ss WHO was SuCCeeOeQ DV
Francis j. Heazel of Asheville, N. c.,
as interim appointee.
Members of the board of directors
whose terms expire this year are:

Murphy Of Calumet, Mich, and
Michael F.. Walsh of Brooklyn.
The council heard reports that
Its membership had a net gain of
e,871 during the last year, bringing
the total to 424,823. Total assets of
$50 ,461 ,533. "a were reported.
The Most Rev. Amleto Giovanni
Cicognani, apostolic delegate to the

last night the blessings of Pope
Plus XII and told the members they

WAR COUNCIL FOR
PACIFIC IMMINENT
Headquarters Would Be
Washington; Australia
4 Looks to U. S. for Aid
CNEA Telephoto,

Washington, March q. - (uP)-
Creation OF a Pacific War Council
with headquarters In Washington
was regarded as certainty today.
1t may be announced In London this
Weekend.
The council will give all Of the
United Nations with interests in
the Pacific a voice In grand strategy
and supply.
Members are expected TO be the
United States, Australia, New zea-
land, Great Britain, Canada, the
Netherlands and, possibly, China,
although she is confined to the Ash
attic mainland.
Such an organization has long
been demanded by Australia and
new Zealand and its creation at
this time Is expected to &c long
way toward soothing the family
row" between the Pacific British
Dominions and the motherland over
machinery for handling the war IN
the Pacific.
Australia for many weeks has
been looking more and more to the
United States for support OF its
effort to stop the Japanese. 1t led
the fight for a war council to sit
in Washington and for an American
commander In the Pacific area. The
latter demand was met with Gen.
eral Douglas Macarthur.
The war council demands were
parried for a time here, largely be-
cause Of the reluctance Of the United
States to become involved in what
Is primarily with-the-empire quar-
rel and which involves many empire
political factors.
At the time Of earlier demands,
an arrangement was made whereby
all questions of a military nature
were settled by staff officers here.
Political questions were referred TO
London. This kept the United States
clear Of political entanglements.
The British then established an
empire war council In London IN
which Australia and New Zealand
had representation. But the United
States has no voice on that council
The Anxacs continued to press Tor
a washington council and. finally
Il was understood, their demands ere
