The 1914 program for the sports
mans club has opened with bang
and greater activity along the lines
of conservation will be stressed this
year. Much discussion among the
Farmer -Sportsmen problems are air.
ed at every meeting and the con-
sensus of opinion of the entire mem-
bership is to develop better har-
mony and cooperation among these
two groups.
The directors of the organization
fully realize that time for action IS
at hand and today the farmer and
the sportsman must walk shoulder
to shoulder in the state wide pro-
gram to conserve and protect wild
life and the other supporting natural
resources.
The cooperation should be so COM
plete between the farmer and sports
man that we can not speak OF them
as separate groups. Today, all
farmers lending a hand in conserva
ton are regarded as sportsman. In
former years the term "sportsmen'
ed rack full of expensive hunting
and fishing equipment. Today a
man or woman may not own a
dollars worth of equipment-they
may be merely lending moral sup
port to a conservation program in
their community-but still they are
called sportsmen, for they are one
of a mass of people keeping alive a
sport handed down to us by our fore
fathers, sport to be conserved and
protected and passed on to many
future generations.
The club has greatly expanded this
year in keeping with the broad pro-
gram recommended to US by the
Conservation Department. The cluf
has reorganized and vice presidents
have been named to direct the dis
tinct functions of the organization
Officers and directors elected fol
the 1914 term are:

Diller promises at least three big
mixers this year for the membership
and friends of the club.
The club specializes in fish frys

fairs agree that nothing surpasses
the tastiness of those delicacies-

denunciation of Prime Minister
Churchill's policy there.
The resolution, put forward by the
partys Executive Committee, carried
by card vote of 2,445 900 to 1877 900.
These votes were cast by about 1000
delegates, each of whom represents
union of known membership.
Full Responsibility Accepted.
Demands that the party break
away from the government policy
won applause but were beaten in
the balloting after Mr.. Bevin blunt
ly told the delegates that the Labor
lite ministers in the Churchill coali-
ton government accepted full re-
sponsibility with the Prime Minister
for British policy in Greece.
Mr.. Bevin said:
The stability of Greece is vital
to the stability and ultimate settle
ment of the Balkans as a whole"
Mr.. Bevin said he appeared as a
representative of the war cabinet
and declared:
Whether you agree that the cab
inet's judgment was right or wrong
at least it was arrived at on the basis
of facts and with the sole objective
of trying to the best we could to get
Greece and other countries back on
their feet"
He said the crisis developed be-
cause the left-wing ELIAS broke an
agreement reached with all parties
in Greece to cooperate in keeping
order until a free election could be
held to decide whether the Greek
people wanted monarchy or re-
public.
Spokesman for both the National
Union of Railwaymen and the Min
ers' Federation announced support
of the resolution, but criticized its
moderation.
Will Stand Behind Bevin.
I'VE will have to support it out
of unity. but We regret the bank
ruptcy of our present leadership"
said Lawrence Plover, representing
the miners.
John Benstead, spokesman for the
railwaymen, said labor promised in
1910 to stand behind Mr.. Bevin, and
added, 1--WE shall do so to the bitter
end"
But we cannot be hamstrung all
the time" he said.

threat to war production He did
not amplify this statement.
The WEB telegram to the princi-
pals in the Detroit strike called for
hearing to show cause why the
directive orders OF the National War
Labor Board. dated August 20, 1943,
and May 49, 1914, should not be
complied with and why the terms
and conditions of employment set
forth in said directive orders should
not govern the relations between the
parties until further order of the
board of such date as the parties
may mutually agree upon and why
the work stoppage presently in ex-
istence should not be terminated
and full and continuous production
resumed"

Eight-Poinf Program
Urged for Protection
OF Migratory Labor

Protection of migratory workers
on the same basis as employees in
more stabilized industries was urged
today by Committee on Migratory
Labor appointed by Secretary of
Labor Perkins.
The committees report was made
tola conference OF State Labor De-
partment representatives being held
in the Departmental Auditorium.
The committee, headed by Andy
Cow of Washington State. pointed
out that workers transported from
Stale to State and outside the coun-

they will live, work and be trans

northeast of Nagoya, and Osaka
about 80 miles to the southwest.
Nagoya is served by four trunk
railways which handled more
through freight cars in 1896 to 1887
than any other japanese rail
terminal. In peacetime it was
Japan's fourth busiest seaport.
Nagoya's wealth of industrial tar
gets includes aircraft factories, ar
Isenals. electric plants, electrochem-
ical plants, machinery, machinery
tool factories, explosives and iron
works.
The city also fits perhaps better
than any other big city this descrip-
tion-it is inf1ammable. 1t has
Idensely crowded residential districts
and mushrooming, congested indus
trial sections whose narrow streets
are crowded with small wooden
shackS even in the city's heart. This
provides a great fire hazard.
Several B-29s made night recon-
Inaissance flights over the Nagoya
area in the last few days. A plane
commanded by 1t Col Frank L.
Davis of Cornwall, N Y, found it
blacked out. with no searchlights,
ack-ack or interception.
Another plane, commanded by
Maj. Clarence c. Fowler, San An
tonic. Tex, also found the city
blacked out, but visible in clear
weather. Nagoya has finer weather
and less cloudy days than other Jap
anese cities.
The japanese Imperial Head
quarters communique, describing
today's raid, said:
This afternoon, December 13,
about 80 B-29s from the Mariana
Islands in small formations respec-
lively raided the Tokyo vicinity and
the Shikoku area, and with the
main force raided Aichi and Shi-
zuoka prefectures. AS for war re-
suits achieved in intercepting these
planes, Investigations are under
way at present
Though there was some damage
on the ground in Aichi and Shizu-
Okla prefectures, no damage was
suffered in the other areas"
Domei, Japanese news agency,
defined the target more closely.
Saying bombs were dropped over
the Nagoya and Hamamatsu areas,
but added that they had been
dropped "at random"

Russian Guns Placed

MOSCOW, Dec. 13.-Russian
assault forces today pointed to-
ward Budapest from newly cap
tured Godollo, 1917 miles to the
northeast, while artillery drew
up in close formation at the
northern and southern outskirts
of the Hungarian capital.
Despite the close approach of
the Red Army, no front dispatches
mentioned anything about the fall
of the Hungarian capital being
imminent"
The city's inhabitants have fled
westward by the thousands and the
German garrison was said to have
dug in, apparently determined to
hold out until full destruction of
the metropolis.
Fires Burn i'm City.
From the Russian positions many
fires could be seen inside the city.
The fall OF Godollo ripped a wide
gap in the "nemys defense lines
northeast of Budapest. An i'm

major enemy bastioa1 controlling the
approaches from that direction. A
Soviet communique said the Ger

other towns in the Central Slovakia

These advances appeared likely
to be linked eventually with the new

Montgomery Ward S
Riff With WLB Heads
For New Showdown

Montgomery Ward today
headed for another showdown
with the War Labor Board as
the CIO threatened general
tie-up of the stores of the Ma
tion-wide merchandising con-
Germ for houting board orders.
Picketing today continued in De-
troit, scene of the latest outbreak.
At the same time, the Montgomery
Ward Organizing Committee of the
CIO United Retail, Wholesale and
Department Store Employees of
America, was called into emergency
session here tomorrow morning, and
the War Labor Board summoned
union and company officials to a
hearing tomorrow afternoon and
Friday. at which the company will
be asked why board orders have been
ignored at Detroit and elsewhere.
The emergency meeting of the
union was arranged last night,
shortly after the WLB ordered the
session of union and management,
which is customary prelude to
Federal seizure of industries in
volyed in labor disputes unless set
tlement is effected.
Purpose of Meeting.
Samuel Wolchok, president of the
union, said tine purpose of the emer-
gency meeting of his group was "to
determine policy regarding the cur
rent strike situation in Detroit as 1t
affects Montgomery Ward workers
throughout the country"
A union source said the policy con-
ceivably could be a request for other
strikes to support the Detroit work
ers who have been out four days.
The latest trouble stems from the
company's long-standlng fight
against acceptance of board orders
Tor union agreements Incorporating
maintenance of membership, acbi-
tration, checkoff of union dues,
seniority and back wages.
1t was a similar situation that led
TO Government seizure of the Chi
cago plant of the mail-order house
last summer and the forcible ejec-
tion of Sewell Avery, Montgomery
Ward chairman, who has been sum-
moned to the board hearing to-
morrow.
Daily Picketing Planned.
Trouble is stirring at six cities in
addition to Detroitr-Portland, Oreg.;
San Rafael, Calf; St. Paul, Chi
cago. Denver and Jamaica, N. Y.
These cases must be considered by
the board Friday.
At Detroit CIO spokesmen said
one or the other of the four stores
in the area would be picketed daily
until the trouble is adjusted.
Heretofore we have upbraided
strikers for violating the CLOS no.

chairman of the CIO delegation on
the regional WLB. Now the shoe

ing the orders of the Federal
agency"
The union said l,500 of 1900 en-
ployes joined the walkout and that
only bobby soxers working part
time remained on the job.
George F. Adde's, international
UAW-CIO secretary-treasurer and
acting union president in the alb
sence of R. j. Thomas, last night
telegraphed President Roosevelt
that Federal action to seize the
stores and effectuate WLB decisions
would terminate the strike.
