Nearly 100 youthful members of

picketed the building at 4215 Mas
sachusetts avenue NV. in protest
against the sale of the place by De-
fense Homes Corp, which will force
the museum to vacate the premises,
possibly in about month.
The children appeared at the
museum soon after school was out
and paraded in front of the building
carrying crudely scrawled signs
that said Long Live the Museum, -
"Vot -Four the Children's Museum"
and 1--WE Must Back Up the Chill

Miss Nancy Milroy, assistant di-
rector Of the museum, which has
occupied the building rent-free for
the last two years, said her first
knowledge Of the organized protest
came when she looked out of her
window "and saw this long line of
children marching upon U.S."
1T was all wonderfully organized, -
she said. They must have planned
it in school,"
Meanwhile the museum is going
ahead with its program until it re-
ceives formal notification to move
Miss Milroy said no papers had yet
been received from Sam Fig, new
owner Of the building, who plans tc

600 gallons of the liquor recently

beverages probably will be en-
bargoed from Is to 30 days after
March Is.
WPB also placed controls over
production Of beverage cane spirits
in the United States, Puerto Rico,
the Virgin Islands. Hawaii and
Alaska. Quotas will be established
for production in each of the Ma
tons territories.
WPB explained the new controls
are designed to prevent further ex-
cessive diversion to beverages of
cane molasses produced in the
southern countries which are badly
needed in making industrial alcohol
for number of war programs. This
diversion, officials said, already has
made necessary the use of large
amounts of food grains in order to
prevent interruption in the flow of
alcohol to synthetic rubber plants
and other uses.
WPB said all persons seeking au-
thoriZation to produce or import
cane liquors will be required to in
form the agency as to the amounts
produced or imported in each quar-
ter of the years 1910, 1941, 1912 and
1943.
The order does not apply to liquors
in transit to points within the United
States before March Is or to liquors
consigned as gifts or imported for
personal use where the size of each
shipment does not exceed 2 gallons.
Splitting up Of single orders so as to
evade the new orders Is forbidden.

| New Service Vote Bill
Is Expected 10 Pass
Congress Next Week

The Senate and House are ex-
pected to approve and send to the
White House next week the confer
ence agreement on a State-con-
trolled service voting plan despite
last-minute protests of the advo-
Gates of simplified Federal ballot
for all members OF. the armed forces.
Senator Lucas, Democrat, of IL
linois, co-author of the original
Federal ballot plan, condemned the
conference report in the Senate yes
terday.
Senator Lucas said that, made
quate as 1t is, he would prefer the
1942 law to the conference agree
ment.
The big question Is whether Presi-
dent Roosevelt will veto the bill,
sign it or allow it to become a law
without his signature. Without re-
vealing his decision, the President
said last Friday the test would be
whether the bill gives more soldiers
chance to vote than the present
law.
The bill gives the right of way to
regular State ballots, but makes it
possible for those overseas to get
the simplif1ed Federal ballot if GER
tain conditions are met, namely
The Governor certif1es by July Is
that the Federal ballot is authorized
by State law; the serviceman shows
that he applied for State ballot by
September and did not receive it
by October /.

Zionist Chiefs Report
President Gives HOPE

Leaders of the movement to keep
Palestine open to Jewish immigra-
ton were cheered today over words
OF encouragement given by President
Roosevelt, Vice President Wallace
and Wendell Willkie.
Leaving the White House yester-
day afternoon, Rabbi Stephen S. Wise
OF New York and DR.. Abba Hillal
Silver of Cleveland told reporters:
"The President is happy that the
doors OF Palestine are today open
to Jewish refugees. and that when
future decisions are reached full
justice will be done to those who
seek q Jewish national home, for
which our Government and the
American people have always had
the deepest sympathy and today
more than ever In view of the tragic
flight Of hundreds of thousands of
homeless Jewish refugees"
Vice President Wallace told a din
ner meeting at the Statler Hotel that
"the four freedoms mean more to
Jewish people than any one else be-
cause they began fighting for their
freedom 5000 years ago and have
never stopped the Jews are de-
serving Of the undying gratitude of
every friend of democracy"
Mr.. Willkie telegraphed this mes
sage:
For the past quarter of century
the Jewish people of Europe have
looked on the Balfour declaration
(Which opened Palestine to the
jews as a covenant of hope. We
must insure by every means at our
disposal that the opportunity re-
mains which will enable an equitable
program to be developed. The doors
Of Palestine must be kept open for
the present"

Maj. Austin Decorated
For Work in Africa

The part played by Maj. Edward
l.. Austin, son Of Senator and Mrs,
Austin Of Vermont, in stopping the
German attack on the Anzio beach,
head was not the first time he had
distinguished himself In action
against the Nazis.
AS a captain in tank destroyer
outfit, the Senator's son fought in
North Africa in 1912 and was dec
GRATED on one occasion for the tacti-
cal skill he displayed in guiding his
unit through dangerous mission
under tank fire.
Although Senator and Mrs. Austin
hear from their son regularly, they
had no inkling Of his recent where
abouts or that he was again spelling
Nazi plans.
He always censors his own mail
before 1T gets started" Senator
Austin said.
Maj. Austin, 33, has a wife and
three children who live in Mont
pelier, VT.
A Reserve lieutenant, he went on
active duty in the summer of 1910.
After attending preparatory school
at Lawrenceville, N. j., young Austin
attended Yale and the University
Of Vermont. He was a New York
staff district manager for Rock OF
Ages, Vermont granite firm, when
he entered military service.

Guard have been advised of the new
order, WPB said, so that they may
be prepared to enforce restrictions
and prevent smuggling. The import
controls have been under considera-
ton for some time, and one reason
the order was held up was the fear
OF some officials that it might in
crease rum-running to a point where
1t would be difficult to control.
Of1cials declined to predict
whether the new import controls
which are expected to increase
greatly the amount of industrial
alcohol in this country will make
possible the long awaited holiday

redoubtable records In that theater
The plot Is simple-the Memphis
Bellies 25th mission. You know, as
you watch, that the famous bomber
got home safely and that its crew is
back In the United States for a
well-earned leave-yet you sit there
and pull for them in tension--and
anxiety.
Target: Wflhelmshaven.
The camera takes the audience
right through preparations for the
fiight-in which the plane is one of
200 bombers-the takeof1, the trip
across the channel and over Ger
many to the target: Wilhelmshaven.
You are in the plane, the fax burst
all around, the guns fight OH Nazi
planes; you might actually be one
Of the crew.
You are given a glimpse OF tao
tical strategy, you realize that fax
Is not merely a collection Of puffs
of smoke but shells exploding,
