Vandenberg

IN demand that all such decisions
shall be subject to review and cor
rection in the postwar peace by
whatever international organiLa-
ton we set up 10 perpetuate the
solidarity OF the United Nations. A
spoilsman's peace will not survive.
1--WE shall have earned the right
to demand peace with justice-the
only kind of peace which can sur
Yive."
Vandenberg called the Atlantic
charter the bone and sinew of
our flaming forward march" and
not Just a nautical collection OF
fragmentary notes
yandenberg said that the power
10 declare war should remain with
Congress although the peace league
should have available such military
force as is granted the president
"for national defense" for Axis de.
naturalization, which would not in
yolve a new declaration OF war,
but would only be the heightened
shadow OF the present war"
He said the only real controversy
inside the United States respecting
Dumbarton Oaks Is whether the
President shall have the power
without reference to Congress, to
Join our armed forces with those
Of the peace league to stop renewed
military aggression.
After we have given him this
unquestioned power in respect to
our enemies, I think | can prove
that the creation OF such a power
for use against our friends becomes
almost an academic question from
the standpoint OF reality he said

More Leaders Required For
Expanded Girl Scout Program

More than fifty more adults are
needed this year to carry on the
greatly expanded Girl Scout pro-
gram in Ypsilanti according to Mrs
George Worden, Girl Scout Organ
ization chairman.
Girl Scout national membership
has been boosted from GIL 900 at
the time OF Pearl Harbor to more
than million today" Mrs. Worden
stated. Interest in Scouting in
Ypsilanti has brought our local
membership in the organization up
10 500 members, with long waiting
lists for practically every one OF
our Twenty-Five troops. Many more
women are needed to help the girls
continue their Scout training"
Women who have worked In Girl
Scouting through the war years
have found great satisfaction in
doing their share on the youth
'front.'" Mrs. Worden continued.
Those who enter Scouting now,
when all OF the plans and possibili-
ties for postwar activities are be-
ing explored. will find the chances
Tor important service even greater.
The end OF the war won't see the
ind OF the problems which have
put young people into the head
lines too often"
Mrs. Worden pointed out that as
the emergency war services relax.
many women who have received
valuable training and experience,
will have time to turn around and
look for opportunities for putting
their energy and skill to good use.
WHO needs them more than the
girls who will be tomorrow's citi-
zens?" she asked.
But girls can't wait TO grow up
until their mothers, sisters. aunts
and friends have more time for
them. They need fun, guidance aud
opportunities for service in Scout.
ing now-today," she continued
Scouting has helped many girl
weather the difficulties OF war
time; It can be an even greater
force in helping girls through the
changes that will come with post
war readjustments. Women who en-.
list in Girl Scouting now will have
the thrill and satisfaction OF taking
an active part In the solving OF
many Of our country's postwar
problems.

Reorganization Plan
Filed by Engineers
Public Service
By the Associated Press.

xaoGOtA6tSe
PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 10.-En-
gineers Public Service Co., New
York, asked the Securities and Elk
change Commission today to ap-
prove a reorganization plan under
which it would divest itself OF its
interests In FL Paso Electric Co. and
Gulf States Utilities Co. and give
Engineers common stockholders di-
rect ownership OF the common stock
of Gulf States, Ell Paso, and Vir-
ginia Electric Power Co., another
subsidiary.
The plan calls for the prior re-
classification by Gulf States Of its
common stock into 1909 1858 shares
(tlle number OF engineers common
shares outstanding) and the grant,
ing to Gulf States preferred Of
seven votes per share instead Of the
one vote it now carries. In this way
there would be approximately the
same relative voting power between
the two stock classes as existed be-
fore reclassification.
Holders of each share of Engineers
common would acquire one share Of
reclassified common of Gulf States
at S11.50 share through exercise
of subscription warrants. Proceeds,
together with Treasury cash, would
provide fund to pay 500 share
to Engineers preferred stockholders
Cat an estimated cost of 500 ,245 5000
Engineers common stockholders
would receive as a dividend in par
tial liquidation, one-flfth of share
Of Ell Paso common, which will have
been reclassified into 38l 1894 shares.
When all Engineers liabilities
have been determined the plan will
be amended to affect the dissolution
and liquidation of Engineers or the
merger of Engineers with Virginia,
which will then be its sole remain
ing subsidiary.
At that time, Engineers common
stockholders would obtain a direct
interest in Virginia's common, either
through distribution or merger.
The SEC will be asked to rule on
the fairness of paying par and ac-
crued dividends to liquidate the pre-
ferred stock.
