STORY OF ARMY
 NURSES IS TOLD
 AT 10TH CENTURY

They were married in a tunnel on Corregidor; they honeymooned in a foxhole, with Jap guns bark ing in the not-far- enough distance. Every moment was precious because in the morning he was leaving on a dangerous assignment.
 That wedding and that honey moon will be remembered by film fans along with other famous, heart-stirring movie moments. The principals are Claudette Colbert aind George Reeves and their TO- mantle story is told in Paramounts epic drama of the nurses on Ba- taan, 50 Proudly We Hail" now at the goth Century.
 All of Claudette's and Reeves love scenes take place in strange places and without the comforts of a parlor or even a park bench. But they are tops in entertainment and romantic thrills from the first meeting on board the ship taking the pair to the Philippines, to the foxhole honeymoon everyone is talking about.
 Paulette Goddard and Veronica Lake are co-starred with Claudette

INDIAN CLAIM
 HEARING AGAIN
 ON NOVEMBER 15

Hearings on the claims of Indian tribal groups to all of the area of Prince of Wales Island and some adjoining areas of Southeast AL aska, the forerunner of Department of Interior proceedings expected to embrace large proportion of the Southeast Alaska district, will be resumed in Seattle on November IS, it is learned here.
 Judge Richard H. Hanna, the De- partment of Interior examiner who conducted the first hearing in Fly daburg, Klawock. Rake and Ketchi- kan, has directed that protests or endorsements of the Indian claims, by telegram, letter or resolution, be forwarded to him in care of E. E. Lescher, TIT Arctic Building, Seattle.
 These protests and endorsements will be held until November Is, when they will be incorporated into the record, subject to examination then by counsel.
 Letters and telegrams should be addressed to Judge Richard H. Hanna, care of E. E. Lescher, TIT Arctic Building, Seattle.
 Because the salmon industry did not have time to prepare it's case for the earlier sessions. the Seattle hearings are expected to be the most important of the five. The metropolitan papers in Seattle and the news services are expected to have a staff of news men and pho- tographers on the scene, so that anything developing for or against the proposed Indian reserves or reservations will be more fully de- scribed to the Americ public than in the case of earlier hear ings.
 The Seattle sessions will be held at the U. s. Customs Court Room, IF Federal Office Building, 909 First Avenue.
 Filing Schedule Given
 Judge Hanna announced new filing schedules, subject to later revision, as follows:
 Affidavits, not later than Mo- vember 25; protests, not later than November 25; filing transcript, not later than November 25; Briefs, not later than December 5; Pro- posed findings and conclusions, not later than December 15; examin- CTS final report, not later than De- cember 24; exceptions and briefs on exceptions, not later than Janu- ary 8, 1945.
 Several organizations, both of ficial and unofficial, plan to be represented for the Seattle sessions. Commercial, fishing, mining and labor organizations all over the Territory are sending protests to the examiner or asking congress sional intervention. Congress last May received a favorable commit tee report on repeal of the Wheeler Howard act which author izes the Secretary of Interior to set up reservations in Alaska. No action yet has been taken on the bill but opponents of the Indian turnover in Alaska point out that congress will be back in session when the Seattle hearings open and that speedy congressional ac- ton might head off the setting up of the first reserves or reserva- tions in the Territory. Petitions

NEW ORLEANS, Nov. 20.-Amer-
ican Federation Of Labor delegates,
claiming to represent 6,818, 400
American workers, met in annual
convention here today, their post
war policies and aims already an
nounced in an executive council re-
port and in a week of convention
departmental sessions.
Today's speakers included AFL
President William Green, Secretary
of Labor Perkins, 1t. Gen. Brehon
Somer9eli, chief of the Army Service
Forces and Gov. James H. Davis OF
Louisiana.
Mr.. Green was scheduled to make
the principal, address of the morn
ing session.
CIO Leaders Denounced.
The executive council in its an
nual report, released this morning,
held the door open for CIO affiliates
to return to the AFL, and, while
denouncing CIO leaders and what
| it termed their "raiding policy" ex-
pressed hope that the two labor
groups might not enter the post
war period divided, disunited and
fighting each other"
Concerning AFL general policy
the council advocated higher wages
better medical care and better
housing for American workers, and
lasting peace to rest on social
justice and to include all people,
| OF more specific aims, President
Green, in a pre-convention press
conference, said one postwar project
would be to raise $1,000,000 to put
free, democratic trade unions back
on their feet" in the nations lib
Grated by the Allies.
Green Predicts Unemployment.
He predicted "a certain amount
of unemployment in reconversion,
but expressed the belief that labor
might hold the number of jobless
to a minimum during the "readjust.
ment period" after the war by:
/. An immediate survey to ascer.
tain ways of beginning civilian pro-
duction as soon as possible, and
2. Development Of a systematic
plan to dispose of surplus war ma
terials SO that they can be absorbed
without interfering with the Ma
tion's economy.
Miss Perkins said last night at a
press conference here she does not
believe postwar industrial reconver-
sion sis going to bring about seri-
GUS unemployment problem

ing to take place very easily" she
said, with half of civilian goods
going into production Immediately

whole box of 65-cent cigars from
the White House.

had operated a shoe store or shop
in the White House neighborhood

Moves for Expansion
OF Lease-Lend Face
Business Opposition

Plans being considered in adj
ministration quarters to broaden
the scope of lease-lend operations
to aid war-ravaged countries will
face opposition by a large segment
of American business, it appeared
today from a report by the Foreign
Commerce Committee of the United
States Chambr of Commerce.
/ This report proposed that lease
lend be confined to munitions Of
war and foodstuff and that all lease
lend be terminated at the end Of
hostilities, being replaced by nor
NAL trade and loan operations.
Taft Urges Full Aid.
Although the administration has
plans, it is known that both British
and French officials are. attempting
to obtain large quantities of civilian
goods to rebuild their economies.
A program of full postwar aid to
Americas Allies has been urged in
several recent speeches by Charles
P. Taft, State Department economic
advisor, on the grounds that restor-
alton of world economy is essential
to American prosperity.
The keynote of the Chamber of
Commerce committee report was
that the United States should re-
turn as soon as possible to normal
trade operations through private
business channels.
At the same time, the committee
called for more realism in our
lease-lend efforts stating that this
country's failure to bargain at all
to date seems to have aroused
suspicion in the minds of several
foreign countries.
mo other country expects to re-
ceive special least-lend considera-
ton without in turn producing some
quid pro quo beyond reverse lease
lend"
IF despite the protests of the
trades" he committee said, there
should continue to be lease-lend
operations on nonwar material, we
respectfully submit that the least
Government could do to implement
its expressed intention to assist a
return to normal trade channels
would be to modify lease-lend pro-
cedure on these nonwar materials
so that procurement in the United
States could be done through COM
mercial channels without the use of
United States Government purchas-
ing agencies
May PidgeOn- Hole Agreements.
On another sector of the economic
front, it was learned that the Sen
ate Foreign Relations Committee
probably will pidgeon- indefi-
nitely the Anglo-American oil
agreement negotiated here last
summer.
Influential Senators said opposi-
ton from the United States pc
troleum industry apparently had
dimmed even plans for committee
hearings.
Although Chairman Connally de-
clined comment on the report he
has indicated no hearings are con-
tempiated this session. He steered
clear of speculation on when hear
ings might be called.
The proposal, regarded by some as
setting a pattern for subsequent in
ternational compacts on tin, rub
ber, sugar and basic alloys, was sub
mitted to the Senate for ratification

New Tires for A Cars
DELAYED Until 1945
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Rationing Chief Charles F. Phillips
of the Office of Price Administration
said today that new tires for "A"
card motorists probably will not be
available until early In 1945," rather
than in the fall of this year 'as 1t
seemed a few weeks ago."
Mr.. Phillips explained that q
huge backlog of applications has
piled up since May when all "B"
card drivers were made eligible for
new tires. He said demand was far
greater than anticipated.
Consequently, it will take more
time than we thought to supply b
card motorists, and it looks as
though there will be no tires for "A
drivers until early in 1945," Mr.
Phillips said. /,
Mr.. Phillips predicted recently
that new tires would begin rolling tc
"A" motorists as soon as monthly al
locations reached the 1000 900 mark
and the ONCE of the Rubber Direc-
tor said quotas would climb to that
level sometime in October, November
or December.
"The way we see it now, it will be
at least three months after the al
locations hit 1000, 900 before we car
release any tires for "A drivers,
Mr.. Phillips said.
