Montgomery Ward
Suit Dismissal Asked

Assistant Attorney General Fran
els M. Shea yesterday asked Dis
trict Court to dismiss suit by Mont
gomery Ward and Co. seeking an
injunction against the War Labor
Board and Fred Vinson, economic
stabilization director, to prevent en-
forcement of any possible penalty
they might assess for the firms
failure to obey a WLB order.
The WLB order involves mainte-
nance of union and other phases of
the company's relations with the
CIO.
The Government asked dismissal
of the suit on the ground there is
no controversy, inasmuch as the
WLB has no power to enforce its
order and that it has not been re-
ferred to Mr.. Vinson or to Presi-
dent Roosevelt, who, Mr.. Shea con-
tended, could act. Stuart S. Ball,
attorney for the company, argued
that the WLB does have power of
enforcement.
Justice T. Alan Goldsborough, who
heard the case, asked Mr.. Shea
whether, if the case were dismissed,
Montgomery Ward would not be left
in the, same position as formerly.
Mr.. SfSea answered thatHt would.
This is new kind of liti-
gation," Mr.. Goldsborough COM
mented. Proceed. I may learn
something"

'CoIIusive Divorce
Support Award Hit

Disregarding a Reno (Nev.) court
decision binding 1t. Comdr. T.
Franklin Schneider, jr., wealthy for
mer real estate operator here, to pay
only $50 a month for support OF his
son, the United States Court of Ap-
peals here has opened the way for
possible future Federal court rulings
affecting the divorce courts of Ne
vada or local courts in other States
on the issue of child maintenance.
In its decision, written by Thur.
man Arnold, former Assistant At
torney General, the Appeals Court
reversed a District Court decision
here in which the father was re-
lieved Of any further support thar
the $50 month provided in a Ne
vada divorce decree. The divorce
was obtained by Mrs. Elizabeth
Brannin Schneider in 1898 after q
"collusive written agreement by the
couple formerly residing here, the
Appeals Court decision said. The
son now Is in the Navy.
Remanding the case to District
Court, the higher tribunal ordered
determination Of tho fathers liza
bility on account Of the mother's
past expenditures for the sons sup
port, ordered payment for such ex-
penses and also ordered payment OF
"an adequate sum for the future
care and education Of the son in
the light Of financial circumstances
of the father" Court records show
the father Is worth more than
81 900, 900.
The issue, according to the ap-
peiate court, was whether q father
by instigating and abetting q collu-
sive divorce decree in q foreign
jurisdiction, can escape the ob1iga-
ton for adequate support OF his sor
imposed on him by the law Of hi
domicile."
The court said the fact that the
son is In the Navy did not relieve
the father of his obligation for pas'
and future support.

proaches to Fire to suggest that il

the question of partition would be
the subject of discussion when

Britain would agree to reopen the

Il hardly can think of more ill
conceived approach to the unity of

(Secretary of State Hull, at a

had no comment on steps which
this country might take along
the course already being charted
by Britain.
(Mr. Hull emphasized that the
British measures were practical
steps to safeguard the lives of
American soldiers)
Fire Expects Early Action.
A high authority expressed the
conviction in Dublin last night that
the Allies soon would close the
Ulster-Eire border.
An Associated Press dispatch
from Dublin said any hopes the
Irish might have that the decision
on closing the border might be left
to the Belfast CUlsteD government
were unfounded. 1t was believed in
Dublin, however, that there would
be no immediate formal sanctions
against Fire by the Allies, the dis
patch added.
Suspension of cross-border COM
munications would affect about
1,250,000 yearly trips, the Dublit
dispatch estimated, while the Brit
ish-Irish travel ban involves about
100000 trips.
The dispatch said that although
there was no likelihood of a stoppage
of supplies to Fire, the Allies need,
for their invasion army might re-
suit in sharp curtailment of gaso-
line, coal, wheat, sugar, newsprint
and other shipments.
A Dublin resident commented
that war conditions had created q
tremendous development of tourist
travel between the north and south
and declared that "any interference
with this free flow would create very
considerable problems for business
concerns and transport companies.

plane losses have totaled 900, COM
pared with As for the Navy.
Mr.. Knox said several factors
have contributed to the lop-sided
score. One is that the enemy has
been caught repeatedly with large
numbers of his aircraft on the
ground. Approximately 253 of the
600 Jap planes were destroyed by
bombing and strafing before they
could get into the air.
1t was disclosed that during the
February % attack on Saipan in the
Marianas, reinforcement of fresh
planes was destroyed on the ground
and never got into the battle. This
group consisted OF Is twin-engined
Betty" type torpedo planes and ap-
proximately 80 Zero fighters. They
arrived after the carrier task force
had struck and apparently the Japs
believed the raid was over. They
parked the fresh reinforcement
group on the runway. But the
American aviators again took off
from their carriers in their second
attack and caught and smashed this
group on the runway.
Altogether, 81 japanese aircraft
were destroyed on the ground at
Saipan, despite the fact that the
Japanese had more than a half a
days warning of the impending at
tack. At Truk, "a Jap planes were
destroyed on the ground and in the
Gilberts and Marshalls campaigns
at least 90 were wiped out in this
way.
, Japs Use Many Barges.
Mr.. Knox had on his desk this
morning number of models of diff
sferent types of barges which the
Japanese have been forced to use
lin an effort to reinforce their posi-
stions in the Southwest Pacific, az
well as to keep those already there
