Supreme War Council
Essential 10 Beat
Axis, Nash Says
Allies Should Shore
PIons, Minister, Back
From Abroad, Urges
BY ROBERT C. HARPER.

Creation of a Supreme War
Council by the United Nations,
so each will know the strategy OF
the others, was described today
by Walter Nash, New Zealand
Minister, just returned from
England, as a necessity In fight
ing the Axis.
Returning from a three-week trip
abroad, Mr.. Nash said he was more
convinced than ever of the need for
the supreme council.
"It is not a question of trying to
help one another" he told a press
conference at the New leland Le-
CATION. Each nation should know
what the others are planning and
how they propose to do it."
Churchill Visit Cited.
In this connection, he termed
Prime Minister Churchill's visit to
Russia splendid contribution to a
common goal" He said the United
Nations coordination of plans is
better than ever before" adding
that my personal view is that
each should reveal complete infor-
nation to the other against a COM
mon enemy"
| Nothing was withheld from Gen
George c. Marshall, U. S. Army
Chief of Staff, and Admiral Ernest
J. King, U. S. Fleet commander, as
to British plans when they were in
London, Mr.. Nash stated He said
Russia is close-lipped about Its
strategy. but emphasized he was
not criticizing the Soviet Union. He
added that there Is reluctance
to reveal plans on all sides"
A Supreme War Council, he felt
shoould consist of representatives of
the United States, Great Britain,
Russia and China. If India should
decide to fight the Axis, India should
be admitted as fifth member be-
cause of its tremendous population
and war resources, Mr. Nash said.
British Confident Of Victory.
Asked If spirit of defeatism was
apparent in any section of British
public opinion, Minister Nash said
he did not think so, adding that
IF there is one element of danger
it Is feeling we will get through
all right"
I'VE could lose this war only if
everybody thought we are bound to
win and takes things easy" he
emphasized.
He termed British war production
amazing" saying it exceeds that of
the United States in proportion to
facilities. Discussing post war re-
construction, Mr.. Nash remarked
that "a section Of the United States
people have better vision of an or.

zone fare system championed by
Gregory Hankin. commission chair
man, and finally adopted by the
PUG, declared:
"Cancellation of the hearing Is
just another cheap move by the
commission to get it's own way"
He announced he would notify the
House District Committee that he
planned to call a meeting of union
cab drivers next week to decide on
course of action.
Another Vacation" Possible.
I'VE are going to put 1t up to the
boys" Mr.. Glenn said. IF they want
to go on another vacation, we will
stay out this time until the matter
Is settled right"
Mr.. Glenn, who has had numerous
controversies with Mr.. Hankin, today
took fling at James H. Flanagan
who will become commission chair
man September l, saying, Flanagan
and Hankin are in about the same
class"
The hearing on demands for modi-
t1cation of the once hotly- disputed
new taxi subzone system was can
celed unexpectedly by the commits
sion after two cab groups had failed
to meet $3.50 assessments to cover
the cost Of the proceedings.
Mr.. Hankin announced the PUG

that it had not filed petition for
consideration at the hearing. He
added that the Combined Cab Serv-
Ice thereafter had asked permission
to withdraw its petition.

the PUG yesterday dismissed the
union case, finding 1t was in error
in assuming the unions request for

Also, it permitted the Combined
Group to withdraw its petition, and
cancelled the two $3.50 assessments.

BY the action of the COM
mission it appeared the in

cents) would continue in force
through the subzone system al
though the bargain" reached be-
tween the commission and cab lead
ers was to apply the new zone sys-
tenn for a period, awaiting a hear
ing on requests for different zones.
Some leaders had insisted the hear

date finally flxed was August n.
There still was an issue between
Mr.. Glenn and the PUG, however,

HARTFORD, Conn, Aug. d.
The Rev. Kurt E, B. Molzahn to-
day faced prison sentence,
possibly 20 years, after being
convicted on a charge Of con-
spiracy to violate the Espionage
Act by attempting to deliver
military secrets of the United
States, his adopted land, to Axis
powers.
The 47-year-old pastor OF an

The others, DR.. Wolfgang Ebell, 43,
Ell Paso tTexD physician, was given
seven years, and DR., Otto Willumeit,
81, Chicago ex-Bund leader, was
ordered to serve five years.
The fifth conspirator, Anastase A..

set aside the verdict and grant a
new trial would be heard Tuesday.

and drawn after the ordeal. The
pastor, remanded into the custody
of the marshal, paused to kiss Mrs

WPB Attempts
To Settle Strike
AT Tank Plant
ChrysIer Official
Describes WuIkout
As Sabotage
3. the Associated Press.

3. the Assoc iated Press.
A War Production Board agen-
cy undertook today to bring to a
quick and peaceful conclusion a
strike at the Chrysler tank ar
senal in Detroit.
The case was in the hands of the
WPB Board of Review, which was
set up under stabiliza ton agree
ment with the Building Trades
Council of the American Federation
Of Labor.
Construction work on an expan-
sion of the tank arsenal remained at
standstill after walkout of ATS
AFL building trades members who
objected to employment of CIO
sheetmetal workers.

the main plant of the arsenal pro-
ceeded as usual, but Operating Man.
ager E. j. Hunt said the walkout
definitely holds up our future pro-
duction schedule
Herman L. Weckler. Chrysler vice
president, described the strike as
sabotage against the Government"
He said the walkout was ordered by
Ed Thai, secretary of the Detroit
Building Trades Council, after
subcontractor installing paint booths
and oven in new addition to the
arsenal refused to discharge 40 CIO
sheetmetal workers and replace
them with AFL members.
A work stoppage at plant of the
Aluminium Co. of America. drew
the War Labor Boards attention.
At the Vernon plant of Alcoa in Los
| Angeles 300 aluminium workers
walked out. CIO officials said the
walkout was unauthorized George
w. Taylor, WLB vice chairman, ap-
| pealed to the men to 60 back to
work now "as loyal and patriotic
citizens" The workers then voted
to return to work Immediately.
Labor Head Blames Lockout.
William B. Taylor, West Coast d.
rector of the CIO United Automo-
bile Workers of America, said the
work stoppage resulted from a COM
pany lockout of some skilled workers.
The board official intimated in a
telegram to the workers that the
boards rejection of wage increase
demand was the cause.
The union leader messaged the
board:
'Stoppage of work at the Alcoa
plant at Vernon today was not In
protest to War Labor Board decision
but was precipitated by the local
Alcoa management who yesterday
! arbitrarily discharged members OF
our union. We have effected their
restoration today through negotia-
A spokesman for an AFL local
union said that jurisdictional dis
pute between two AFL unions may
remove thousands of highly skilled
journeymen welders and burners
from their jobs in four Henry j,
Kaiser shipyards in Richmond, Calf.
But the threat of an immediate tie
up appeared removed when Local
681 voted to ask Government aid IN
settling the dispute.
Urged to- Take Other Jobs.
Ray Stewart, the union official,
said, at Oakland, Calf, that a local
Executive Board had recommended
that the men leave their Jobs and
take work available elsewhere in
other yards in the area. He said the
action was taken in protest against
the establishment of a boilermakers'
union within the Jurisdiction OF
Welders' Lodge 681.
