Wallace Says Troops
Should Get Ballot
AS Simple Justice

Vice President Wallace declared
yesterday that ''as a matter of SIM
pie justice" all members of the

portunity to vote next year.
AS a matter of simple justice, -

They are entitled to help chose those
who will be our public servants after
the war is won"
Mr. Wallace referred neither to

On Appeals Of Allies
For General Strike
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
BARCELONA, Dec. 14.-The Vichy
government, through communique
published in newspapers through
out France, has urged French work.
+ers to ignore underground and Allied
radio appeals for a general strike
which Chief of Government Pierre
Laval apparently fears might pre-
cipitate national crisis.
The communique declared strikes
in France are illegal and limited
they would be suppressed by force
If necessary.
French newspapers carried an ac-
count of the assassination of Jean
Lidore, chief inspector of police in
Limoges, who had been directing a
campaign against guerrillas operat-
ing in the Limousin mountains.
Also reported assassinated were
Pierre Arnaud, secretary-general OF
the Miners Federation in the Loire
department, and Louis Faure Pull
guely, president-judge of the Lyon
Court of Appeals. Both men were
said to have been pro- German col
laborationists.
The assassinated officials were
among scores of collaborationists
and leaders of various pro-Naz
political parties said to have been
slain in the past few days.
The newspaper Action Francaise
said that 2,799 "terrorists" had been
arrested throughout France in the
last two weeks in an attempt to hall
the wave of killings.

power problems.
Returning from an inspection trip
of the West Coast, where a spe-

effect, Mr.. Appley reported "vio-
lent reaction" by both labor and
management to "the idea of a pro-

solve their manpower problems
Management, labor and the citi-
zens generally, however, have gotten
together to solve the problem of

Transportation and spreading in
formation about the program, he
reported.
They are well on the wav to
solving the problems" he declared.
They have the program to meet
the more serious crises which NAV
develop when the theater of opera

concerned, shifts from the East to

Mr.. Appley reported that West
Coast employers had turned from
trying to get all the manpower they
could to getting out all the produc-
tion possible with available man
power. The result has been a
marked increase in the amount of
production man, he said.

At the same time, Philip Murray,
CIO president, disclosed he is'urging
WPB Chief Donald Nelson to rescind
"all restrictions" on the use of steel
for civilians SO the industry may
continue operating at capacity TO
keep up home front morale
Mr.. Murray said some mills al
ready are slowing down output be-
cause war orders are not heavy
enough to keep them running and
that indications were operations
early next year would drop from to
10 per cent below capacity levels.
A strike involving more than 500
men at the nearby McKeesport plant
Of the National Tube Co., closing
down furnaces, was blamed by the
company on refusal of two cranemen
to take other, lower paying jobs
when it was necessary to close one

Ickes Hopes Fortas,
Released From Navy;
Will Return 10 Job
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Abe Fortas, former Undersec-
retary Of the Interior, has been
discharged from the Navy for
physical reasons after serving
one month as an apprentice sea-
man, the Navy announced today.
Secretary of the Interior Ickes
said Mr.. Fortas regretted being a
civilian again, but II do not share
Mr.. Fortas' regret" and added that
he hopes to persuade Mr.. Fortas to
return as undersecretary.
Mr.. Ickes, in statement. said
Mr.. Fortas has an arrested case of
ocular tuberculosis and has spent
all except one day of his term at
the Camp Sampson (N. " train
Ing station in the hospital.
In and Out Twice.
Mr.. Fortas, 33 years old, married
with no children, has been in and
out Of the Navy twice in a two
month period. Until October he was
kept out of the service by Mr.. Ickes
and President Roosevelt on the
ground that he was necessary in
his job. There was some congress
sional criticism of that.
Mr.. Fortas himself said he was
eager to get into uniform. Finally
Mr.. Ickes and Mr.. Roosevelt with
Grew their objections and the Mem
phis lawyer volunteered for induc-
ton in the Navy.
The day he reported, Mr.. Ickes
persuaded the Navy to give him a
30-day leave to head mission
OF the Petroleum Reserves Corp.
to the Middle East. The mission
was delayed in leaving, and Mr..
Fortas resigned, entered the NAVY
and was shipped to Camp Samp-
son.
Mr.. 1ckes' statement said:
I do not share Mr.. Fortas' regret
that, after volunteering for the
Navy, he was not permitted to serve
When he entered the Navy, he was
Undersecretary of the Interior. Bv
considerable majority, his duties
related to the war program. I am
hoping that he will return to those
duties, as he can i'll be spared from
this department.
Disease Arrested Again.
THE exhaustive physical eXami-
nation he was given at Camp Samp-
son disclosed that Mr.. Fortas had
an arrested case of ocular tubercu-
losis, a recurrence of which might
have been attended by most serious
permanent results. Except for one
day, all of his term at Camp Samp-
son was spent in the hospital and
even there he had a slight recur-
renee of the disease. Fortunately.
however the Navy doctors were able
to arrest it again"
The Navy said a regular medical
examining board made this finding
concerning Mr.. Fortas:
This man is not qualified for re-
tention and was not qualified for
enlistment in the United States
naval service"

'Yugos|avia 10 Choose
Own Form Of Regime
After War, Eden Says
Ry the Associated Press.

LONDON, Dec. 14-Yugoslavia
will have a chance to choose its
own government after the war
Foreign Secretary Anthony Eden
told Commons today. He said both
King Peter II and Marshal JoSip
Broz (Tito), who recently formed a
government of his own, have agreed
to lay down their portfolios the
moment the war is over and permit
the country to choose freely how
it wishes to be ruled.
Meanwhile broadcast COM
munique from the Free Yugoslav''
radio said Tito's red-starred Parti-
sans now were engaged in the heav-
lest defensive fighting since they
began their guerrilla activities
against the Germans.
The Nazis, heavily reinforced and
using planes and tanks. are trying
nightly to suppress Partisan re-
sistance and have forced forward
in some sectors. but only at tre-
mendouS cost, the communique in
dicated.
$500 Germans Killed.
The Partisans claimed more than
1900 Germans killed and the cap
ture of large quantities of war ma
terials. They said that the center
of the fighting was in Eastern Bos-
MIA and Dalmatia and that in East
ern Bosnia alone the Germans have
brought to bear six divisions.
Mr.. Eden, in his discussion of the
Balkan situation, said the Parti-
sans are engaging a large number of
German divisions, and we are doing
all we can to supply them with
munitions and to support them in
every possible way He added Brit
ain had had military mission with
Tito since last spring.
One evidence of this Allied support
was heavy attack yesterday by
bombers of the Northwest African
Air Force on Split and Sebenik, two
Adriatic ports and railway centers
used by Germany to supply its
troops in Yugoslavia.
Tito's cOmmunique said the Nazis
in Eastern Bosnia were attacking
with tanks and motorized troops
from four sides-from the direc-
tlons Of Sarajevo, from Tuzla and
Zvornik, across the River Drina and
from Serbia.
Column Destroyed.
In the Tuzla sector one German
column of 1000 men was defeated
and $50 officers and men were killed,
the announcement said. More were
wounded and a considerable amount
Of booty taken.
Another bitter skirmish in the
BrCko sector cost the Germans $40
dead.
The Germans captured the town
of PleVlje, but in this sector an
enemy column of 800 men was sur
rounded and destroyed. The enemy
also took the towns of Duvno,
Grahovo and Livno, but the Parti-
sans said they brought up REIN
forcements and recaptured Livno.
The Free Yugoslav" radio an
nounced that Tito had formulated
plans for a government on a six-unit
federal basis after the war The
six units named in the federal plan
were Serbia, Croatia, Slovenia, Mon
tenegro, Bosnia Herzegovina and
Sanjak-Macedon
A dispatch from Budapest to the
newspaper Social Demokraten in
Stockholm reported two Bulgarian
Army battalions had deserted in
the last month and joined the
Partisans.
