Baltimore Transit Denied
Injunction on WLB Order
BY the Associated Press.

by tIc ASSOCldlcu fTcSh
BALTIMORE, May 1S.-Judge
William C. Coleman in Federal
Court yesterday dismissed Balti-
more Transit Co. petition for an
injunction restraining enforcement
of War Labor Board order directed
at the company.
The firm had sought restraining
order against United States Attorney
Bernard j. Flynn and William F.
Knell, district officer of the Office
of Defense Transportation.
Judge Coleman declared he had
been unable to find statutes author
izing either of the defendants to
enforce the WLB order, which di-
rected the transit firm to comply
with an earlier National Labor Rela-
tions Board directive ordering the
company to cease recognition of an
independent union of its employees
Judge Coleman declared, however,
that there is nothing to indicate
that the company is defying the
Government willfully in the war
effort"
The Government agents had been
named by the company as Defend
ants on the theory that they would
be the ones to enforce the directive
and to impose punitive measures
for failure to comply.
Judge Coleman criticized the WLB
for what he said was its failure to
make an effort to discover what
the majority of the company en-
ployes really desire in the way of
union recognition"

$4OO,OOO,OOO Postwar Plans
Developed to Beoutify City
Projects Outlined by Fine Arts Commission
Ronge From Huge Stadium to Memorials

A postwar program for the con-
tinued Identification of Washing
| ton. estimated to cost about $780,
000,000 already has been developed
it was revealed by H. p Caemmerer
secretary of the Commission of Fine
Arts. during hearings on the 1914
Interior Department appropriation
bill, now awaiting House considera-
ton
The far-sighted program which
Mr. Caemmerer outlined in detail
contains Al projects ranging from
construction of huge national
stadium to memorials including one
for Theodore Roosevelt on Roose-
welt Island.
Discusses Program.
Discussing the program, Mr..
Caemmerer said.
1T is impossible to furnish an
itemized list of cost of these prof.
ects at this time But a general
survey of them indicates that they
will cost about s400,0O0,00O. which
is the amount Congress authorized
for projects soon after the World
War, when it inaugurated the great
public building program during the
administrat ton of President Cool
idge.
1T is a conservative amount, con-
sidering in that war the American
| forces won victories only in Europe
whereas in this war the American
soldiers, sailors and marines are
winning victories in all parts of the
world, and as result Washington
has become the first among world
! capitals.
The history of the city shows
that each war has had tremen-
dous effect on the growth of Wash
ington. 1t has now fully million
inhabitants and is among the 10
largest cities in the country in that
class"
The projects listed follow:
Projects for the Future De-
velopment of the National
Capital.

be in marble or granite, similar to
the Folger Shakesperian Library

Several Commanders
May Direct Allies in
Invasion Of Europe
Eoch Would Have Choroe
Of One Prong Of Thrust
Against Hitler Fortress
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The Allied invasion of Europe NAV
be directed-not by single supreme
commander-but by several COM
manders, each having his own
sphere of operations.
Speculation over the appointment
OF an Allied commander, authorities
here pointed out today, generally
presupposes one great drive, whereas
the strategy actually to be followed
may turn out to be a multiple at
tack.
Presumably, President Roosevelt
and Prime Minister Churchill have
by now set the course of invasion,
and 1t Is more than likely that they
have agreed on a commander-or
commanders. Assuming a single
al-out smash, the names figuring
most prominently in speculation are
those of three full generals, one
British and two American-Sir
Harold r. L. @. Alexander, Dwight
D. Eisenhower and George c.
Marshall.
May Not Affect Marshall.
II, however, multiple invasion
Is the plan. Gen. Marshalps name
drops out Of most of the guessing
here. 1t is regarded as unlikely that
he would give up his present post
as Chief of Staff to take over q task
force doing only a part of the job.
That would be relinquishing a large
share of the high command for a
smaller share.
The same situation does not hold
for either Gen. Alexander or Gen.
Eisenhower. In each case, COM
mand of one prong of a multiple
and co-ordinated assault on Eu-
rope would be an enlarged COM
mand, involving greater numbers of
troops and more diverse problems
than the North African campaign.
II. for instance, the high COM
mand has decided to hit Europe
simultaneously along all four of the
most frequently mentioned possibili-
ties-the Balkans, Italy, the English
Channel and Norway-Gen. Eisen-
hover would seem to be a logical
man to command the Italian thrust.
Alexander Called "a Natural"
The Balkan route is one of the
two invasion roads generally re-
garded as likely to carry the main
drive, the other being the short
line across the Channel. For
either, Gen. Alexander would be "a
natural His indomitable leader
ship turned the disasters of Dun
kerque and Burma into classic ex-
amples of rearguard actions.
In the opinion of many observers,
there would be no single commander
over the whole battle for Europe if
two or more thrusts we're started The
overall command probably would
continue to be. as it is now. a joint
staff job. headed. by the President
and the Prime Minister.
