Reconversion Is Expected To
Be Speeded Up In Most Towns

| Observation-Disclosures surveying
business leaders in nearly 900 CT
ties, the committee for economic
development reported this week
that "reconversion may proceed
very rapidly"
Sixty out of "a large cities and
war production centers advised
that they ''do not expect grave
unemployment problems" in
shifting to peacetime production,
said CED, nationwide business
organization.
Asked whether the survey boil
stored hopes of hitting CED's re-
conversion goal of So to Sc mil
! lion higher than in pre-war 1910
Walter D. Fuller, president of
the Curtis Publishing company
told a news conferences:
GAS far as I am personally con-
cerned, my confidence is greatly
amplified."
Fuller, who is chairman of
CED's field development division
said that a grass roots" survey
of 800 smaller cities and towns
taken by telegraph supported the
reports from large cities.
twenty-five of the large cen.
tiers show reconversion well I'm.
der way with no major unem.
ployment problems indicated,
said the report.
"Three cities will require {
three-month period, 20 cities siz
months, and II a year for full re-
conversion"
TN spite of needing time fol-
reconversion these cities do moi
expect grave unemployment prob
i lens
Ten cities could not foresee the
rehirirg of all their jobless per-
sons; thirteen lacked data to es-
innate the time required for full
reconversion, and one foresaW

HITLER IS STILL
REPORTED TO BE ALIVE

London-Gen. Eisenhower was
reported by the Dutch radio to
have told Dutch newspapermen
there was treason to believe"
that Hitler was still alive.
The broadcast, recorded by
BIC. said that one of the CORE
s2ondents. accompanying Eisen-
hover on a visit to the Hague
asked the general if he thought
Hitler was dead.
Il thought so at first" Eisen-
hover was said to have replied,
but there is reason to believe
that he is still alive. But that in
itself does not constitute a prob

groups

CONFLICT groups
Perhaps the one thing we must
guard against most, in putting this
humpty-dumpty world back to-
gether again, is to avoid building
up group antagonism.
If a Russian makes a speech
which angers us, we must not con-
clude that his remarks are repre-
sentative of all Russians.
IT labor leader stirs our
wrath by calling strike for
some petty cause, we must not
assume that all labOrerS, or
all members of his union, are
to be condemned.
If the head of a manufac-
turing concern attempts to re-
duce the earnings of his en-
plOyees, we mustn't Jump to
the conclusion that all indus
trial leaders are tout to get"
labor.
If one company or one union
goes in for race discrimination, we
must not assume that others are
planning similar discrimination.
Most of us are much too prone
to condemn a group because of
the actions of a few individual
members of that group. On the
international front such an atti-
tude leads inevitably to warfare.
And on the domestic front it
causes wide splits in our national
unity which do irreparable dam
age and result in conflicts that
cannot help but delay our nations
progress.
LABOR MANAGEMENT
It is going to be difficult, if not
impossible, to wipe out some of
the group antagonism which has
a real hold on our people-par-
ticularly that which exists be-
tween labor and management.
There are undoubtedly many
industrial managers who are so
incensed against labor unions that
their natural reaction is one of
keen enjoyment as they contem-
plate the possibility of being able

is "the enemy" But if he met
with a large group of business
men he would find that they
too include all different types
some of whom are fighting
against labor and others who
are more interested in the
welfare of their employees

SHOWING DECLINE

Raleigh-A gradual decline in

fewer claimants for jobless pay

than in anything else.

If we are going to have united
smooth-running nation we R1usas
all try to stop taking sides An&
the very best way to avoid group
clashes is to avoid thinking Of peo~
pie in terms of groups, buS he
think of each group as a varied
assembly Of individuals.

business. profession or other voca- ton.
 What further makes you eligiblef well, you must have been in active service for at least ninety days (part Of which was after 16 September l940). If you were separated be- cause of a disability incurred in line of duty, you don't need the full nine ty days service.
 The only other requirement. is that you shall have been discharged oi released from active service under l conditions ether than dishonorable. That may seem like sort of nega- ] tive way of saying something posi- tive, but you can't mistake its meaning.
 Similar eligibility rules apply fol ex-service men who aren't working for themselves, but who have work ed for others and are now out of a job
 I've already mentioned this pro- visicn in a previous column. But it's so important that it will bear further notice. Joe is always a good name to call fellow without naming real names. So let me tell you about guy named Jce, a veteran who thought he was smart.
 He had work, but he heard about the CT Bills provisions for unem- ployment pay Thinking he'd cut in on the gravy, he laid down on the job Loafed whenever he pleased which was constantly. and spent much time in the wash room. Joe, you've lost interest" his foreman told him Whats eating you?"
 ] "Oh, nothing" Joe answered in- differently; then added, Don't like the work"
 l How come you've suddenly changed?"
 | Never did like it, Joe said. i We'll the foreman warned, you better get busy - and like it." 1 So Joe stayed, but he didn't get busy.
 The next Tuesday, he was out or his big fat convictions. But he sauntered around to the United States Employment Service office to put in claim for unemployment pay. Wasn't he an service mani The country owed him twenty bucks a week for a living.
 He didn't get the living. There was no gravy. His claim wasn't ac- oepted for that week nor for foul following weeks. And he didn't takt job the USES told him about - even failed to go around to the em- ployer to see about it.
 Jce woke up after while. He'c learned that the CT Bill hadn't created twenty dollar week hano out for loafers.
 The CT Bill has a disqualifyine section which says a veteran canr leave suitable work without goot cause. He's also out of luch fol unemployment pay if he's discharg cd for misconduct, or If he fails tt apply for or accept suitable work of fered by public employmen agency, or if he is without worl and doesn't attend an available fret training course.

late last night that Gen. MacArthur will command all of the Army forces in the Pacific theare, and that Admiral Nimitz will command all of the Navy forces.
 The strategic direction of the broad plans for the war will be re- tained by the joint chiefs of staff.
 The nature of each specific op- eration, whether it is essentially sea or land, will determine which man directs it and commands each as- signment
 The a n nounce e m en { spoke of large forces re-deployed from Europe and rapid advancement up through the Southwest Pacific which brought us close to the proximity of the Japanese home land and the China coast"
 one effect of the directive ap- parently was to remove the Navy from Gen MacArthur's sphere of command in the Southwest Pacific where he has been Supreme Allied Commander of all naval forces un- der his jurisdiction.
 Admiral Nimitz now appears tc have direct command of all arma- ment and men afloat, including such allied forces as the British naval units now in the Pacific.
 General Arnold still retains eX- elusive control of his 20th Airforce operating agency, Superfort fleets Other units of his airforces, how ever, are left under the field com mand of Gen. Macarthur.

SERIOUS BREACH FEARED

A'AAfAoeo 1AtE4hSh ELAALD
 SAN FRANCISCO, April 6.--To- kyo broadcasts recorded by the EGG here suggested the Japs be- lieved Russia's action might pos sibly be only prelude to more serious breach between the two countries.
 The Tokyo broadcast observed that while the non-aggression pact has a year to run, a 12 months no- tice was required for denunciation
 The broadcast further said Japan lis prepared to meet any abrupt change in the existing Japanese Soviet relations in view of the ra- pid progression of the world situa- tion"
 Foreign observers here believe the Russians only signed the pact with Japan in an effort to avoid &two front%war, being fearful of Hitler's intentions from the beginning.

Clap planes today made their heaviest air assault on American invasion ships since soldiers and Marines of the Tenth Army went ashore on Okinawa April 1.
 Increasing attacks by the Japs started this morning, ranging from heavy to light in the late after noon. The tempo of the raids in dicated the Japs may be making a major effort to cripple the inva- sion force, and the next few days may give an answer to what strength the enemy has.
 Heavy American naval guniire continued to support advances ashore, as the Twentyfourth Corps troops pushed roughly 500 yards southward against stiffening resist ance.
