New. York and New England
Appearances Scheduled

ALBANY, N. Y, Oct. 27 (Py.-His
western campaign ended, Gov
Dewey started his stretch drive for
the presidency today by lining up a
schedule of appearances in New
York State and New England.
The Republican nominee will
travel to Syracuse tomorrow for a
major farm speech at 1890 pm.
He left unannounced the subject
of Tuesday night speech at Buff
falo, apparently to leave the way
open if he feels called on to answer
anything President Roosevelt might
say in talks at Philadelphia tonight
and in Chicago tomorrow night
The Syracuse and Buffalo jour-
neys may find the candidate max
ing brief train-end appearances en-
route, practice he is likely to fol-
low on a projected trip which may
take him through Connecticut and
New Hampshire on his way to, or
returning from, Boston for a sched-
uled speech there November l.
Whether additional formal ad-
dresses will be fitted into his
itinerary in the lapse of three days
between the Boston visit and a
Madison Square Garden rally in
New York City November may
depend on what Mr.. Roosevelt says
and upon a final check of COP
prospects in New York and other
populouS Eastern States:

surprise landing from the sea early
yesterday and drove mile inland

Goering's 5 Hunting Lodge
CAPTURED in Prussia
BY the Associated Press.

MOSCOW, Oct. 27.-Reichmar-
shall Hermann Goering's favorite
hunting lodge in the Rominten
Heide of East Prussia was captured
virtually intact, with it's wine cellar

payne, the army newspaper Red
Star reported today.
Heaps of typographical maps
were found on Goering's desk in
the study and they were scribbled
with notations, believed to be his
handwriting.
Furnishings in the bronze col
ored, two-story lodge were in good
order. An SIS regiment defending

Pants Burglar Strikes
Three Times in Night;
.Awakens Policeman

Even as special police details pre-
pared to renew their nocturnal
patrols in quest of the pants
burglar" following the release of a
suspect yesterday, the phantom
prowler struck three times early to-
day.
Perhaps in a puckish mood, he
selected as his first objective the
home of a policeman, Pvt. William
D. De Groot, of the 18th precinct
at 5000 Second place NV.
His invasion of the home of the
enemy-a form of putting his head
in the lions mouth-waS an empty
gesture as far as financial return
was concerned, however.
Policeman De Groot was awakened
by the sounds of some one ascending
the stairs in his home early today
He jumped out OF bed, he told
brother officers later, and turned on
the hall lights.
Flees Through Kitchen.
The proWler ran out the kitchen
door and disappeared. By the time
the policeman put on pair of shoes,
the better to give chase, the in
truder was far, far away.
Apparently not a whit unnerved
by this narrow squeak, the pants
specialist struck again only a few
doors away short time later.
He entered the home of ISadore
KOrnfield, 5905 Second place NV.
through an unlocked window and
removed 81 in change from the
pants of the sleeping Mr.. Korn-
field and 81 from Mrs. Ida Korn-
fields purse, lying on a dresser.
A short time later the elusive
sneak thief invaded the bedroom
of A. w. Bookoff, 1904 Fourth street
NV. Taking Mr.. Bookoff's trousers
from the foot of the bed where the
owner slept, the prowler retired to
the kitchen of the house and
emptied the pockets of $18 in bills
and change The pants We're found
neatly draped over a kitchen chair
this morning, police reported.
Last nights thefts came on the
heels of the release yesterday of a
35year-old magazine subscription
salesman, at first suspected by po-
lice of being the long-sought pants
burglar
Arrested Early Wednesday.
The man was arrested early We'd
neSday by detectives assigned to
bring in the pants burglar"
Hopes of harried policemen that
the scourge of the police depart
ment had at last been captured
scared at first when a number of
circumstances indicated that the
captive might be the much wanted
prowler.
AS investigation of the suspects
alibis progressed. however, optimism
faded and finally disappeared alto
gether when it became apparent
that the man was completely inno-
cent. He was released on a writ OF
demand served on Inspector Robert
j. Barrett yesterday by an attorney
His protestations of innocence
police admitted, were not a little
strengthened when the pants bur-
glar" completed two missions
even while the suspect was being
questioned.

Opinions Of Locul
Lobor Leaders

Melvin Schultz, President, Local
IL, UAW-CIO, eff the Presidents
proposed conscription law is, as he
says for the prevention of strikes,
he could do lot better and achieve
the same results by forcing
through food subsidies and really
stabilizing our economy. / doubt
if such a law work, especially
now that the war production eff
fort is being subjected to cut
backs and thousands of workers
are being laid off"
Richard Lozette, President, To-
ledo Industrial Union Council:
"a national service act at this
time seems rather strange to me.
When every sign points to mill
tary victory and industry is al
ready talking about beginning to
reconvert to peacetime produc-
ton, the President is asking for
conscription law. If such a law
were necessary it was months ago
and not now when General Eisen-
hover says the war will end in
1914"
Franz Berlacher, President,
TeTamster's Union (AFL) "We
are certainly opposed to the Pres
ident's proposal. | think labor has
done a satisfactory job despite all
the propaganda put out against
it, and do not see how this pro-
posed law would add anything to
the workers efforts"
Lloyd Speidell, charm an,
Champion Spark Plug Unit, Local
II, UAW-CIO. "Had such a pro-
posal as the President made Tues
day come six months or a year
ago, we would not think so much
of it; but at this time, it seems
to me that Mr.. Roosevelt has made
a grave mistake which will not
aid the morale of the workers"
Earl Martin, manager, Toledo
Joint Board, Amalgamated Cloth
ing Workers, CIO. "In my opinion,
the Presidents proposal for a ma
tional service law is not right. We
have been getting along fine with
the war production on the testi-
mony of government officials
If that is true, and
think it is, why conscript labor
at this time"

For Paying
Illegal Rofes

CLEVELAND, Jan. 1.-THE
Regional WLB tripartite division
of Board members handling viola
tion cases has made findings total
ing S11,500 against four plumbing
contractors for paying S1.65 an
hour in the Springfield (O.) area
when the rate in the agreement be-
tween the Master Plumbers Asso-
citation and the Plumbers and
Steamfitters Union, Local 90, AFL,
is $1.55 an hour.
This amount will be disregarded
by the government as deductible
cost of the companies for income
tax purposes.
Philip Fusco, Regional WLB at"
torney, has called attention to the
fact that contractors may not pay
rates higher than those which have
the approval of the Wage Adjust
ment Board in Washington and has
warned that the Wage Stabiliza-
ton act of Congress provides for
criminal prosecution of both en-
ployers and employees who will
fully violate wage control reguia-
tions.
Hearings are being held this
week against six other companies
alleged to have violated the law by
paying wages higher than is per-
missible without first obtaining
WLB approval

out pay for servicemen. Action
was expected first on the SEN
ate finance committees con-
troversial tax bill, denounced by
Treasury Dept. officials and or
ganized labor as hopelessly made
quate.
Sen. Walter F. George, chairman
of the finance committee, said con-
sideration of the bill would take at
least week and indicated the sep
arate controversial provisions of
the bill would be discussed piece
meal. Debate will begin on the
bills freezing of social security
rates at l per cent, its revenue
raising provisions and an anti
union rider, with the hottest issue
in the bill-its revision of the re-
negotiation statute-to be con-
sidered last.
Meanwhile, returning congress
men were met with a statement
issued by eight national organiza-
tions calling for drastic revision
of the tax bill. In the coalition are
the CIO, National Lawyers Guild,
National Farmers Union, Brother
hood of Railroad Trainmen (unaf-
filiated), National Association for
Advancement of Colored People,
National Women's Trade Union
League, League of Women Shop
pers and Consumers Union.
The senate finance committee
bill "fails utterly to meet basic
requirements of wartime revenue
measure and is in many respects
worse than the inadequate bill ap-
proved by the house," the state
ment said.

Railroad Arbitration
Board Named

WASHINGTON (FP) - Presi-
dent Roosevelt Jan. 5 named a
three-man board to arbitrate over
time pay demands of 15 nonoperat-
ing railroad unions, representing
100000 workers.
Makeup of the board, headed
by Judge Edwyn R. Shaw of Illi-
nois supreme court, is the same
as that which offered the unions
a sliding scale wage increase of
4-10 cents. The unions at first
rejected this proposal, but later
accepted it after government seiz-
ure Of the railroads, at the same
time asking the President to ar
bitrate their request for overtime
pay.

FoSfered

NEW KENSINGTON, Pa. (FP)
Charges that war production au-
thorities are deliberately "perpet-
uating" an aluminium shortage
were made here by Pres. Nicholas
A. Zonarich of the Aluminium
Workers (CIO..
Aluminium producing facilities
already have been shut down at
Badin, N. c., Alcoa, Tenn, and
Massena, N. Y, and additional
plants are being shut down in
New York City and Burlington,
N. j., Zonarich said, with conse-
uent unemployment for large num-
bers of workers.
For the first time since 194O
the nation now has an adequate
supply of aluminium, but there is
mo real surplus" he asserted. Any
present "excess production" could
be used to alleviate civilian short
ages, he suggested.

seniority of those in the armed
! forces.
A resolution was passed calling
for the support of the Wagner
Murray-Dingell bill to extend
medical care and hospital benefits
under the terms of the bill.
One of the most important reso-
lutions of the meeting was that
calling upon Congress and the
President to retain ownership of
the plants and property acquired
by the government for wartime
production or that it's sale be at
full commercial value and not un-
der any spurious method of figur-
ing depreciation to plant and
equipment.
Support Of intracorporation con-
ferences was given by the confer
ence in a resolution calling for
such conferences to unity and So
lidify the workers of different
plants but within the same cor
poration.
CI0 Director introduced
Sam Sponseller, CI0 regional di-
rector of Cleveland, attended the
afternoon conference and spoke
briefly to the conference compli-
menting it on the work accom-
plished. He said that the political
action ideas outlined by the con-
ference as well as other measures
taken were in line with national
CI0 policy and expressed the
opinion that the conference had
been highly successful.
Melvin Schultz, President of Lo-
cal II, UAW-CI0, thanked the Of
ficers of the Standard Products
Local 497 for their hospitality and
complimented them on the great
progress they had made in their
organizational work. He made a
few suggestions to Thomas Ken
ney, president of the Port Clinton
Local, and stated that he believed
all those present at the meeting
had enjoyed themselves as guests
OF the Port Clinton UAW-CIO.
A motion was made and passed
to send Regional Director Rochard
Gosser complete transcript of
the proceedings and to wish him
a speedy recovery to health.
Thanks of the regional confer
ence was voted to the Port Clinton
UAW-CIO for their hospitality
and efforts to make the conference
a success. Fremont was tentatively
selected as the place of the next
conference before adjournment.

ings for General Motors,
Chrysler, Ford, Briggs and
other companies under UAW
contract. Additional demands
are pouring in.
The companies are generally op-
posed to any concessions. Packard
Motor Car Co. refused to meet the
UAW plant committee to discuss
any wage demands. Packard and
Ford as we'll have been caught try
ing to renege on the soldier-seni-
ority clauses of their contracts and
were made to toe the mark by the
union.
TwO-Year Program
The UAW wage drive outlined
at the Chicago board meeting
adopts a program laid down some
years ago by the miners when they
eliminated north-south wige diff
ferentials. The auto workers want
every man and woman working on
the same job, on matter where in
the country, to get the same hourly
rate. They also want wages to be
raised to match the rise in living
costs and to keep on raising them
as costs keep on advancing.
Severance pay for employees VINO
do not have enough seniority to
hold on to their jobs when the in
evitable deflation of payrolls ar
rives is also demanded, as is a
guarantee of 48 hours work per
week or 4s hours pay--demands
that already caused agonized yelps
from General Motors when insisted
on by the union in wage hearings
now in progress in Detroit.
