 SUIT AGAINST
 WINGARD PIX. co.

SEATTLE, April ci - Superior Judge James w. Hodson denied an accounting demand aimed at dis solving the L. G. Wingard Packing Company, which, testimony dis closed, started with less than $17,000 in 1942, built the salmon packing industry in Ugashik, Alaska and gained profit of more than $100,000 in one year.
 Suit was brought by Roland H. Corbett, salmon cannery foreman, against MT. and Mrs. Lemuel G. Wingard, who also figured recently in an alienation of affections suit brought by Wingard's former wife.
 Corbett alleged he was entitled to one-fourth interest in the pack ing company, contending Wingard had concealed assets in the name of relatives, making them silent or dummy" partners.
 The court held Corbett is entitled to receive one-fourth of the profits in the 1922 venture, but is not a member of continuing partner ship or joint venture enterprise.

Conquest of Central Phil ippines Completed with
 Action on Cebu Island

MANILA, April 21-Gen. Douglas Macarthur today announced the conquest of the central Philippines had been completed with the ex- termination of all but few rem nants of the Japanese garrison on Cebu.
 The Cebu victory, in which 5000 enemy dead were counted on the field Thursday, gave MacArthur's forces control of 33,000 square miles in the central and southern Philip pines, and liberated 6,400,000 civili- ans.
 Japanese strongpoints in the en- tire Philippines have now been re- duced to only two; Davao on Min danao and Baguio, summer capital of Luzon. Doughboys are now ap- preaching both of these points, which have been weakened by aerial bombardment.
 Final action on Cebu Island was an enveloping movement which caught the enemy completely by surprise.

WASHINGTON, April 21-Even if frequent victories in the Pacific continue, it will be six months or a year after Germany's surrender be- fore the homefront will see anything like return to normal.
 That's summary of the opinions of key officials in the Army, Navy, WIPE, OPA, War Foods, War Man power and several other agencies.
 If persons celebrate VIE Day ex- pecting that tomorrow their soldiers will be home, that they can eat steaks again, buy a new car and plenty of gasoline, pack all the gro- ceries they want into new ice-box, and drift over to any job they want to take, they have rude awakening coming.
 OPA Director Chester Bowles has made it clear that price controls will have to continue far beyond VIE Day, probably even beyond victory over Japan. The problem is to pre- vent imitation and postwar defla- tion as well.

The W ashington Merry Go Round
By DREW PEARSON fLt. Col. Robert 8. Allen now sn active service with the Army.S

WASHINGTON, Here is one tip off as to how Harry Truman will operate as President of the United States-uamely how he handled his old Truman Committee.
 A lot of myths have grown up about that committee, chiefly that it was run by Hugh Fulton, its counsel. Fulton was good fact finder, but it's sheer baloney that he ran the committed Real fact is that it was a good committee and had some Al members. They all ran it.
 Truman believed in teamwork. He didn't move without keeping his committee informed and having its support He worked also with the Republicans on the committee Brewster of Maine, Burton of Ohio, Ball of Minnesota and Ferguson of Michigan-and they reciprocated.
 A lot of people around Wash ington think it may be a good idea to have more of this kind of teamwork During many years under spectacular president, Government officials have drifted into the habit of letting things slip because they knew "the Boss would take care of it." Now Tru- man is likely to adopt a policy of letting every man handle his own burdens, and if things slip, getting a new man.
 MORGENTHAU RESIGNS
 After the funeral services at the White House, Secretary of the Treasury Morgenthau called on President Truman and brought with him letter of resignation. Tru- man read it over and said:
 But want you to stay on with me-"
 Both Morgenthau and Truman were still grief-stricken by the sudden death of their mutual friend.
 Nov you know how feel, MT President" replied Morgenthau Roosevelt told me many times Henry, you and came down here together from Duchess County (where both Morgenthau and Roosevelt have estates), and we will go back together Now he's going back and I feel I ought to go.'
 "But," maintained the new Presi- dent, you have a lot of work to do here and want you to stay
 MT. President, I am glad to serve in time of war and I will do anything I can to. back you up," re- piled Morgenthau, but you are entitled to a free hand and to choose your own men. have one boy with the Third Army in Ger (many and another of my sons is fighting off Okinawa right now But I will carry on under two con- ditions: If you think am the best man for the job, and if you will back me up 100 per cent. That's the way it was with Roosevelt and that's the only way I will stay
 well, that's the way it will be, Henry" replied the new President. T will back you up 100 per cent if you will stay"
 In the end, Morgenthau agreed.

 V-Day will see the beginning of cancellation of billions of dollars in war contracts. The Navy has al- ready started it's cutback, dropping nearly 75 per cent of it's future ma- jor shipbuilding plans. Now these are future" contracts. They won't mean the immediate release of mill lions of workers. The change-oyer will see the gradual release of thous- ands of workers. The belief here now is that this slow shift from war to civilian production will require greater manpower controls than any so far enacted during wartime.
 As far as manpower is concerned, the Navy won't cut back at all un- til the end of the war with Japan and is expected to hold it's present level of approximately 100000. The Army, on the other hand, will drop gradually. There will be something like a 60 per cent cut in the present 120,000 men a month being taken by the draft. The first great in- Aux of soldiers from the western front in Europe will be men on their way to the Pacific theatre: exper- fenced soldiers are not going to be mustered out wholesale until Japan is whipped.
 Nor will VIE Day make any im- mediate difference in the food sit- uation. The opinion is pretty gener- al here that our worst food short ages are ahead of us, even if Ger many collapses today.
 This also applies to transporta- tion, story in itself After VIE Bay, it will have to shift from the Atlantic to the Pacific Coast. The burden in the west will be brutal, and for a while at least, rolling
