the Treasury Morgenthau, who wants
to convert Germany into an agricul-
tural nation, and Secretary of War
Stimson and Secretary of State Hull,
who object to complete de-indus-
trialization.
The British press. too, while giving
prominent display to the stories on
the American dispute. for the most
part has avoided comment.
However. the Manchester Guardian
asserted, There is general hope that
Mr.. Churchill will go beyond the
military narrative of these last STIR
ring months and will redefine the
European policy of the Allies, and,
in particular, of our own country"
1T is not enough said the
Guardian, Ito keep hearing of what
President Roosevelt is supposed tc
think or of how Mr.. Morganthau
differs from Mr.. Hull. 1t should
be possible for Mr. Churchill and
Mr.. Eden. without prejudice to
the questions still unsettled, to tell
the British people. something of
what is being done at Dumbarton
Oaks toward forming the new in
ternational system and-for the en-
lightenment of the Germans no less
than of ourselves-to sketch the
broad outlines of the conditions that
are to be imposed on the beaten

United States, Britain, Russia and

ment upon set of proposals for
the establishment of an organiza-
ton to maintain peace and security

IF. as we greatly hope he said,
we succeed in framing such joint
proposals, they would be communi-
Gated to the other governments of
the United Nations concerned as a
basis for discussion at a joint con-
ference of all United Nations"
Mr. Churchill also took opportu-
nifty to praise the heroism of the
Polish home army and the popula-
ton of Warsaw who, after five years
of oppression, had yet fought for
nearly two months to contribute all
in their power to the expulsion of
the Germans from the capital of
Poland"
He said the British government
was too far away from the scene"
to take responsibility for ordering an
uprising in Poland. but that it had
contributed supplies and endeavored
to promote cooperation between
Poland and the Soviet authorities.
He added that the Soviet armies
were heavily engaged in other fight

tional plans permitted they sent
supplies to the Polish forces and
provided air cover and AA support.

Wherry Suggests Making
Autos on Small Scale
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
KANSAS CITY, Sept. 26.-Sena-
tor Wherry, Republican, of Nebras-
ka. member of the Senate Small
Business Committee, suggested to-
day 1t might be necessary to urge
the War Production Board to per-
init manufacture of new automobiles
on a small scale to curb evasiors
of price ceilings on used cars.
His suggestion followed testimony
by Ralph Knight. chairman of the
Used Car Committee for Motor Car
Dealers Of the Kansas City area
that sales of legitimate dealers haG
declined since ceilings were i'm
posed, while sales between individ-
uals increased greatly. Many of the
sales in the latter case. Mr.. Knight
said. violated ceiling price regula-
tions.
Senator Wherry, who conducted
the hearing, commented at the
close:
The only remedy I can see is for
lis to urge the WPB to permit the
immediate conversion of some car
manufacturing plants to the making
OF new cars. Even on a small scale
1t would help"

Little Steel Formula
Violates Pledge Given
Labor, AFL Asserts
~ the Associated Press.


The American Federation of Labor
said today that maintenance of the
Little Steel" wage formula is a vio-
lation Of promises to labor and tc
servicemen and 1t constitutes a
basis for major postwar depres-
sion.
George Meany, secretary treasurer
Of the AFL, and Matthew Vol
stepped out of their positions as
members of the War Labor Board
into the role of pleaders before the
board. Their appearance opened
the final phase of arguments on
whether the WLB should recon-
mend a change in wartime wage
control policies to President Roose-
welt.
I'VE have said and We say again
here today" Mr.. Meany asserted,
that the present wage freeze policy
constitutes a fraud on the Nation S
workers who are producing for vic
tory and on the Nations soldiers and
sailors who expect to return to
standards of living at least as good
as they left behind them when they
went off to fight.
Wage Freeze Opposed.
while labor has steadfastly sup
ported wage regulation as an aid
in the fight against imitation, labor
has opposed the wage-freeze policy
OF the Government, Any
wage-freeze policy beyond the con-
troll OF the WLB was a fragrant vio-
lation of the agreement made be-
tween labor, industry and Govern
ment on December %. l94l."
Said Mr.. Vol: Our problem
today is no longer the fear of in
f1ation, rather our fears today are
centered on the, specter of wide
spread =, deAatlon undermining all
parts OF our national economy"
The AFL submitted it's case in de-
tail to a panel several months ago.
The hearing before the board itself
was called today to hear oral argu-
ment on the findings of the panel.
The panel submitted no recon-
mendations. as such.
Steel Hearing Tomorrow.
Tomorrow and Thursday will be
devoted to hearings on the report
OF a panel which heard the dispute
involving the steel manufacturing
companies. The hearing will be
concerned largely with the CIO
United Steelworkers demand for
a general wage increase. Companies
which wish to argue at length
on the unions other demands will
be heard on October and October 5.
On Friday and Saturday of this
week the board will hear arguments
on the wage policy involving Cen
eral Electric, Westinghouse, Gen.
eral Motors, the meat-packing and
glass industries and the unions
which represent workers in those
industries.
Representatives of organized in
dustry who are not heard fully
at the AFL hearing today will have
a day to themselves on next Tues

Democratic Worker Quits;

By the Associated Press,

BY the Associated Press.
HARRISBURG. Pa. Sept. 26.-
Mrs. Mary A. McQuade, veteran
Democratic party worker, has re-
signed from the party's State COM
mittee and announced her reason as:
Il refuse to be a part of a Demo-
cratic State Committee which has
obviously entered into a fourth-term
conspiracy with the Communists and
other rabble rousers."
She said that the Democratic State
organization in the hands of State
Chairman David L. Lawrence has
become an arrogant machine that
flouts the right of the little people,
particularly in counties where the
Democratic vote is negligible"
1T is evident that Lawrence, Sen
ator Guffey and Auditor General F..
Clair Ross have become the willing
tools Of Communism and the kind
OF political action practiced by Sid
ney Hillman and Earl Browder."

wife of major in the Air Forces
stationed at Alliance. Nebr
Born at Markham, Va, on June
Is. 1894, Gen. Marshall was COM
missioned a second lieutenant in
the Maryland National Guard in
1916, year after his graduation
from Virginia Military Institute. He
served on the Mexican border and
was commissioned second lieuten-
ant in the regular Army in 1916.
He went to France in July, 1917,
with the 9Th Field Artillery, was
wounded 10 days before the armis-
tice and received the Silver Star for
gallantry in action.
He served in the Philippines from
1929 to 1882 as harbor defense
quartermaster at Fort Mills and as
head of the Philippine quartermas-
ter depot in Manila. He returned
in October, 1899, and was assigned
as assistant to Gen. Macarthur,
then military adviser. He was de-
signated deputy chief of staff of
USAFFE UNITED States Armed
Forces in the Far East when that
headquarters was established in
l94l prior to the war.
Remembers Jap Conquest.
Gen. Marshall still retains the
memory of those difficult days when
the Japanese threw their best troops
in a crushing blow at Gen. Mac
Arthur and his little army. 1t is
for that reason that the driving
determination to 60 back is as
strong in him as in others of the
men who came out with the gen.
eral
He never can forget the little
army, poorly equipped. still un-
trained, battling to hold back the
Japanese hordes.
Then, after the battle had been
fought, Gen. Macarthur was Or
dered to leave and he named 9TH
ers to go with him.
1T was difficult to leave" Gen
Marshall recalled. II told one Off
Ger. Brig. Gen. Lewis C. Beebe
good bye because he was staying
behind as chief to staff to Gen.
Wainwright. But I couldn't tell
the others goodbye.
Il had two men. Sergts. Flage
and Clawson. to whom I had be-
come very much attached and it
was terrible to have to leave them
behind. l also had little Filipino
boy who always said. 'Japs bad
mans and I had to leave him"
Lives Only to Return.
How does he feel about going
back?
why, that's what we're all liv-
ing for he answered. That's the
purpose of the war, to get back to
the Philippines"
There is one thing that bothers
him. however. At Manila he stayed
behind to close headquarters. He
fears the same thing may happen
when it comes time to close Gen.
MacArthur's headquarters in Aus
tralia or wherever it may be to 60
to the Philippines.
I'D like to be with the group
making the first landing Gen
Marshall said. Il know Gen. Mac
Arthur will be one of the first men
to go back and I hope he'll take us
all along with him.

Facts on CIark'S
Fork Discovery

Drilled to 6531 and with
pipe set at 6445, swabbing
tests were begun Monday
of the second Frontier
sand, which had been sam
pied but not cored and
which had an apparent
thickness of rs feet, from
6450 to 6525.
Though this horizon had
shown only gas-cut mud
on drill stem test, the
swabbing, through pig
inch tubing, continued
Monday and through part
of Tuesday, brought in oil
of 45-gravity, which had
risen to within $500 feet
of the surface Tuesday aft
ernoon.
When swabbing resumed
Wednesday forenoon, il
was found oil had risen an
additional thousand feet.
The swab recovered all oil
in the first two runs
Wednesday, then began re-
covering some drilling mud
along with the oil. The
well, swabbed more, began
flowing. With no tankage
available for test, the well
was shut IN. Within a short
time, casing head pressure
had built up TO 700 pounds.
Before the we'll began flow
ing, it was found impos-
sible to lower the oil level
below a point 5000 feet
below the surface.
Thursday, the we'll was
shut in for installation of
flow lines and tankage.
Conservative observers
who saw the well in action
and who are familiar with
Frontier sand production
in the area estim a tie d
Thursday the well would
have an optimum flow rate
of between 200 and 300
barrels daily, and were of
the opinion that if allowed
to flow wide open it might
easily have an initial of
more than 1000 barrels
daily.
