served under Eisenhower as Com
mander of the Second Army Corps
in Tinisia, will become Senior Com
mander of the American ground
forces in the United Kingdom.
The first public appearance of
Gen. Eisenhower focused attention
on invasion plans. He said the OBJ
ject of the italian campaign is the
capture of Rome but the front ex-
tends from the Balkans to the
Pyrenees and the attack might be
anywhere.

ants assigned him. He said he had

BRITAIN IS
ACCUSED OF
DOUBLE DEAL
Moscow Newspaper Claim.
British Feeling Out Ger
mans on Peace Pact

MOSCOW, Jan. 1.-THE Russian
newspaper Pravda publishes a Cairo
report that two English officials
conferred secretly with German For
eign Minister Won Ribbentrop to
find terms for separate peace with
Germany and added "it is under
stood the meeting did not remain
without results"
A l0-line dispatch published at
the top of Pravdas foreign news
under the heading "Rumors from
Cairo said the meeting took place
lat one of the seacoast cities on
the Pyrennes Peninsula" apparently
in Spain or Portugal.
According to the official Com
munist Party newspaper, the report
in the dispatch amounts to an ac-
cusation that Britain at least is
sounding out with Germany for the
possibility of separate peace.
The newspaper openly accuses
Britain, if the report is true, of
double crossing the other United
Nations in view of the many times
stated declaration that only Jun
conditional surrender" on the part
of Germany will be considered.
The concluding sentence of the
dispatch carried for the Russians
positive sense of secret parley and
stirred intense surprise among the
Russian people.

WASHINGTON Those on the in
side say that most of the trouble
regarding rail wages and even the
seizure of the railroads might have
been avoided if the President had
not been in the BARRIERS chair when
last summer, he discussed wages
with George Harrison, head of the
Railroad clerks.
Genial PA" Watson, Guardian
of all White House appointments,
unfortunately let the railroad labor
leader in to see the President at the
end of busy day when he was
getting shave.
Tired and relaxed, Roosevelt was
stretched out in the BARRIERS chair
with lather all over his face. He
talked to Harrison between strokes
of the razor, which meant that he
didn't talk very much. Harrison did
most of the talking and said that
the railroad incorporating workers
should have a wage increase OF 8
cents an hour, plus 6 cents an hour
for overtime.
He came away from the White
House with the definite impression
that the President agreed to this.
AS result, all rail workers, both
operating and on-operating, ex-
pected a proportionate raise and
were boiling mad when Economic
Stabilizer vinson found that it vio-
lated the Little Steel formula and
authorization policies.
Ever since then, Harrison and
associates have stuck to the prom
Use which Harrison believed the
President gave while he was being
shaved.
