By STERLING r. GREEN

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2S-(R
- Industry delegates to the
Labor Management conference
have virtually abandoned hope
Of arriving at any solution of
jurisdictional disputes.
A delegate of the National
Association of Manufacturers
predicted to reporter today
that the question would be re-
ferred for long-term study OF the
proposed semi-permanent exec
utive board whose creation Is
now favored by conference lead
ers.
Despite President Truman's
flat challenge to the conference
at its opening-"some substitute
must be found for jurisdictional
strikes"-members of the SUBJ
committee assigned to the task
quit and went home last Friday
for a ten-day breathing spell.
They will reassemble again
next Monday, but the industry
members-who are largely by
standers to an issue which can
be settled only by the labor dele
gates-were pessismistic Of re-
suits.
When the committee began its
work, management men said,
they suggested that labor work
out its own answer to inter-
union squabbles and submit 1t in
writing. The labor group was
reluctant to try for such a quick
answer.
LONG DELAY SEEN
Management then suggested
that the labor side attempt to
arrive at a solution over a per-
iod of 80 days or six months and
then report it to the White
House or the Labor Department.
This proposal likewise has
failed to get labor agreement, as
did Secretary of Labor Schwel-
lenbach's early proposal that the
big labor organizations set up
"czar," in movie or baseball
fashion, to resolve contests be-
tween unions.
The major difficulty, accord
ing to conference officers, appar-
emily Is a reluctance Of either
the CIO or AFL delegates to
put their names to an agreement
- which might later work
against the interests of their own
or affiliated unions.
Both labor and management
delegates, talking informally

NEW YORK-The dehydrat-
ed meal rose overnight to sem
sational fame early in the war
and returned to obscurity with
dull thud at the close of hos
tilities.
Americans just don't like their
vitamins withered down to a
quarter inch pill. Fresh spinach
is here to stay.
The death of the just-add-
hot-Water-and-serve dinner be-
gan with grumblings in the CT
foxhole, and reached national
proportions just after VI Day,
when 80 per cent of the dehy-
drafted vegetable plants closed
down.
During the war the powdered
meal was met with mixed feel
ings, from an elaborate dried
banquet in Washington at which
national officials acclaimed the
stand-in food, to a hasty meal
on the battle front, at which
fighting Yanks labeled it "er-
satz' and asked for baked beans.
However, dried food produc-
ers expected this sudden death.
Ever since the Civil War, they
point out, the dehydration OF
vegetables has been a war meas
ure. However, with the perfec-
tion of the science, after each
conflict, a few more dried foods
stay on the market, and the
more optimistic are prone to be-
lieve that at some later day dried
foods will compete with frozen
and canned foods.

IT'LL BE SEEING YOU" IS BILL AT
 CAPITOL TONIGHT

The Dore Schary production, I'll Be Seeing You" which is coming to the Capitol Theatre tonight, Is a tenderly dramatic story of two be- wildered souls who find the way to social and emotional rehabilita- ton drought their great love for each other. It stars Ginger Rogers in a role that is reported to be a histrionic highlight in the versatile young actress career. Playing op- posite her is Joseph Gotten.
 The leading characters are a young girl Miss Rogers) who is serving a prison sentence for man. slaughter, and a soldier tMr. Cot ten) who is under treatment at a military hospital, having been re- turned from action in the Pacific with high honors, but also with a bad psychoneurosis.
 The girl is in the heartbreaking position of being considered a crim- inal because she inadvertently caus- ed the death of a former employer while fighting off his brutal and frightening advances. She is giv- en a ten-day leave from prison, in order to spend Christmas in the only home she knows, that of an Aunt and Uncle.
 On the train she meets the boy, who has also been given a Christ mas furlough from the sanitarium. He has no home to go to, and doesn't care much, for he is in a Respondent state at his inability to regain emotional stability. He finds himself afraid to go among people Together these two work out their salvation, after ten-day romantic interlude during which the girl helps the boy completely over come his nerve shock, even though the dread of returning to prison is with her constantly.

Spirit Begins Showing
 Here in Juneau

Christmastime in Juneaul With three more days to go before the years most eagerly anticipated holiday, the city is going all out for the nations first war-free Christmas in four years.
 Lights and shiny multi-colored ornaments twinkle from almost every establishment in town Car pets of snow cotton glistening with bits of silver wink from the plate glass windows of commercial houses, proudly displaying their once-a- year tinseled packages and yuletide wares.
 Christmas trees, from the beau- tiful shining object in the Baranof lobby to the fat little trees hung with popcorn and paper chains in the smallest cabin up the trail, wink the cheery message, Christ mas is herel'
 Shoppers trudge home with cheerful if weary smiles and arm fuls of multi-colored parcels. Hos tesses polish up the punch bowl, scratch cryptic notes about nut cups and last-minute. additions to the guest list. Already the air is rife with spirited Merry Christ masses" and even Happy New Years" are exchanged between persons who may not meet be- tween now and the Big Days ahead
 Truly, Juneau has the yuletide spirit this year.
 Even among the busiest of men the season gets its due. Behind the lavish trees in the Baranof, far from the sight of the register ing guest and the partying group, there is a "busy-man's tree"
 It's a pretty tree, colorful and gay, and though it's branches could get lost behind single box under the hotels lobby tree, it carries it's message well. Propped up in a place of grand display it shines above the soup pots, the condi- ments, the steaming big cauldrons and pans of the Baranof kitchen.
 It is the work of the night shift cooks and helpers. At the top is an artistic swirl of angel hair and the rest of the tree is decorated with an artists eye for color and balance. On the tree in just the proper spots are hung, two ripe olives centered with toothpicks, a soda cracker, two tea bags, gay tiny coffee cream jar, dime wrapped up in celophane, two ritz crackers, and an ice cream cone. Private Parties
 From the avalanche of private parties being planned for the fes- tive end-of of-the-year holidays are the following few already planned and ready to go:
