Denied by Landlord

Louis Burman, owner of the prop
erty rented to the Flight Train
ing Research Association, Fifteenth
street and Maryland avenue NE,
last night denied he had insisted
on raising the rent OF the associ-
alton as charged yesterday by j.
Maxwell Dickey. personnel manager
Of the association.
Furthermore, Mr.. Burman said he
resented sign put up on his prop
erty which read: This defense plant
forced to vacate because owner is
raising rent 1885, per cent" He
said he was losing money on the
property and would not renew two
separate leases on adjoining pieces
of property rented to the associ-
alton.
Mr.. Dickey had said yesterday
that dispute over the rent had
forced him to move from the places
where the association was making
machines used in naval gunnery
training. The move would delay
production of needed war material
two months, he said.
Mr.. Burman charged he had been
struck by Mr.. Dickey during a con-
versation on the property. A war
rant charging assault was sworn
out, and Mr.. Dickey will face a
jury trial November "A in Munich

Allied experts were quoted as say
ing the Va as not as effective
in destructive power as the vi be-
cause of the huge crater it makes,
reducing the blast. The robot bomb
digs hardly any crater, going of
on contact with maximum blasting
effect.
The Va also Is q much more COM

as matter Of form. He took the
same action at the end. OF Mr..

Whether any other cabinet menu
ibers will follow suit remains to be
seen. 1t Is not obligatory. The
President is always in position to
have q resignation Of q cabinet ON
Ger II he desires 1t.
OF the other members of the cab
met, Secretary Of Commerce Jones
Is reported as having no intention
of resigning. Undoubtedly, Mr..
Jones will continue to serve as long
as he feels he can be useful.
Miss Perkins, the only woman
ever to serve In q cabinet ONCE, is
likely to remain as Secretary of
Labor. Should she retire, serious
question might arise over the selec-
ton of her successor, particularly II
the choice should fall on q man
who is either affiliated with or par
ticularly friendly to the CLIO or the
AFL. Such 4 choice might seriously
embarrass the President.
Postmaster General F. C. Walker
has talked Of withdrawing from pub
lie ONCE. However. If Mr.. Walker
desires to continue as Postmaster
General, 1t is considered unlikely he
will be displaced.
Talk of Mr.. Walkers possible
resignation has developed particu-
larry since election day, on the
theory that the Postmaster Gen.
erals ofiice should be held by the
chairman Of the Democratic Nation
al Committee and that the present
chairman, Robert e. Hannegan, will
have to be taken care Of" James
A. Farley served for years in the
Roosevelt cabinet as Postmaster
General, when he was Democratic
national chairman. Mr.. Walker,
himself, served as national chairman
for q period after the resignation of
Edward Flynn OF New York.
Mr.. Hannegan had q principal
part in winning the recent election.
1t is expected he will be appointed
to an important ONCE in the ad-
ministration.
Secretary Of Agriculture Wickard
has been the object Of attack in
some quarters. However, there is
no certainty that his post will be
disturbed, unless he himself de-
sires to resign. Judge Marvin
Jones. head Of the War Food Ad-
ministration, might be a possible
choice for this cabinet ONCE,
should there be a change. How
ever, 1t is understood that Mr..
Jones would prefer to return to the

1000 Raiders Meet
Meager Resistance
Over Axis Targets
By the Associated Press.


LONDON, Nov. l1.-German anti.
aircraft sunners today offered only
meager to moderate resistance when
1000 American planes attacked the
Reich in bad weather from west and
south. hitting poorly defended
targets in Italy, Austria and Western
Germany.
1t. Gen. Carl A. Spaatz's United
States Strategic Air Forces co-ordi-
mated strikes with the 18th Air Force
In italy, sending out TOO heavy
bombers, which hit synthetic oil
plants In Czechoslovakia, a steel
plant at Linz. Austria, and bridges
In Northern Italy. The Liberators
and Flying Fortresses from Italy
were escorted by $50 fighters.
Suggesting the Raj was on its
way back to Germany tonight, the
Berlin radio warned Of the approach

Eazis Saving Ammunition.
German antiaircraft batteries
must have been saving their am
munition today" an Allied spokes-
man said after 9th Air Force planes
attacked synthetic oil plant in the
Ruhr and railway yards at Coblenz,
to the south.
They have quit throwing much
fax when we attack through heavy
clouds" the spokesman said APP
parently they are saving shells just
the same as they are saving gasoline
and other supplies"
Only one German plane offered
attack when the $50 Liberators and
Fortresses, with an escort of $40
Mustangs and Thunderbolts, crossed
the Channel and few across France.
A jet-propelled Messerschmitt 1853
was driven of after making one
feeble pass at the American ar

Back al Post Soon;
Health Improving !
BY GOULD LINCOLN

L1ke1hO0o OF schangeS IN Presi-
dent Roosevelt's fourth-term cabinet
appears remote unless some Of the
present members wish to retire.
Secretary OF State Hull, accord
ing to information obtained yester-
day, Is improving in health and
is expected to return to his ONCE
within q short time.
Rumors that Mr.. Hull, who has
been in Naval Hospital for treat
ment, would relinquish his cabinet
post were discounted. He has no
intention Of resigning, it was said
and there is no reason to believe
that the President would ask for
his resignation. ~
Wallace Often Mentioned.
The name Of Vice President Wei
lace has been mentioned often in
the last few weeks as a probable
successor to Mr.. Hull as Secretary
Of State, after Mr.. Wallace,s term
expires January 20.
Members of the so-called New
Deal inner circle have "gunned" for
Mr.. Hull in the past on several &C.
casions. One of their ideas was to
supplant Mr.. Hull with Sumner
Welles, former Undersecretary of
State. In the end, Mr.. Welles re-
signed.
Mr.. Wallace undoubtedly would
be more than acceptable to the New
Dealers. On the other hand, 1t is
understood that Mr.. Hull's relation
ship with the Vice-President has
been much the same as that between
the Secretary of Statae and Mr..
Welles.
Mr.. Hull's health undoubtedly will
be a determining factor in any
considered change. As Secretary of
State he has had both the approval
and confidence Of the country, dur
Ing many trying years. He recently
reached his 73d birthday.
Mr.. Wallace accepted his defeat
at the Democratic Convention with
good grace and campaigned vigor-
ously for the Roosevelt fourth term.
In some quarters he has been re-
garded as a coming outstanding
leader Of liberals in the country
That an important place win be
found for him in the administration
Is believed certain.
With the beginning of each OF
President Roosevelt's terms of ofiice,
after his first, rumors have spread
OF possible changes in the cabinet.
In the past they have not material
lied. Nor does there appear to be
much reason to believe that present
members of the cabinet will be re-
placed.
Certain Of Retention.
Secretary Of the Treasury Nor
genthau, Secretary of War Stimson,
Attorney General Biddle, Secretary
OF the Navy Forrestal, and Secre-
tary Of the Interior Ickes are re-
guarded as certain to be retained.
The War and Navy Departments
are functioning so well that 1t
would be amazing If any change
occurred at the head Of either de-
partment. Mr.. Morgenthau is an
intimate friend Of the President
and has always had his complete
confidence in dealing with fiscal
affairs.
Mr.. Ickes has submitted his resig-
nation, but this is regarded merely
