Stock Leaders Dip
In Profit Taking
After Early Rise
BY BERNARD s. O'HARA,


NEW YORK, April 25.-The stock
markets bull swing encountered re-
sistance today on a moderate in
crease in selling which caused gen.
eral retreat of fractions to around q
point in the leaders.
The freer supply of offerings was
regarded as natural in view of the
markets steep rise since the closing
days of March. Also having bear
ing on the selling mood was re-
newed apprehension in some sections
of Wall Street over a possible move
in Washington to cut down the vol
ume of speculation in securities.
Most pivotal issuse worked into
lower ground after somewhat
higher opening. The sell-of brought
in fair amount of support so that
most declines held within frac-
tional limits. Some utilities and
specialties had small gains near the
fourth hour.
At lower levels were such key is
sues as U. S. Steel, Bethlehem, Cen
eral Motors, Chryler, Sears Roebuck,
Montgomery Ward, Westinghouse.
Santa Fe, N. Y. Central, Southern
Railway, and Great Northern.

Early Accord on uses
BY the Associated Press.

House leaders have decided to
strive for settlement of the contro-
versy with President Truman over
the United States Employment
Service as No. / item of business
when Congress comes back Janu-
airy IA.
This was disclosed yesterday by
Chairman Cannon of the Appro-
priations Committee. He told a re-
porter that I'VE want to get this
issue decided Immediately, so we
can push ahead with other bust
ness"
House Labor Committee clerks
reported that Majority Leader Nc
Cormack of Massachusetts, has
asked that hearings on the subject
start the opening day and legisla-
ton be sent to the floor within a
week.
The leadership reasoning, one
committee aide said, is that rela-
tons between President Truman
and Congress will be improved If
the differences over USES can be
settled speedily.
The fight is over whether ad-
ministration of the employment
service should be returned to State
control. Congress approved legis-
lation providing for such action
within 100 days, but the measure
was killed when Mr.. Truman re-
fused to sign it,

To Return to Britain to Live
District Native
Has Never Seen
His Daughter

Jack Vincent Fitzmaurice is a
Washington-born discharged war
veteran whose war bride problem
has new angle.
He wants to return to England
to be with his wife and 3-week- old
daughter.
The veteran does not feel Mrs
Fitzmaurice is able to make the long
ocean voyage alone at this time. He
also wishes to return to Newport
Monmouthshire, South Wales. He
likes the countryside, the small
town, the pleasant people he has
met and the romantic memories as
ISOLATED with the place.
In addition, Mr.. Fitzmaurice said
he has several offers of positions
with companies in Wales if he re-
turns.
Time and patience are the two
factors he now has to contend with
while waiting to go back to New
port. Both are difficult for a man
who last saw his wife nearly a year
ago and has never seen his daughter.
Pvt. Fitzmaurice has his pass
port from the State Department and
a ticket for ship to England. But
he is waiting for his visa from the
British Embassy. That takes time,
and patience.
In June, 1914, the former Nc
Kinley High School student arrived
in Newport. Monmoutshire, South
Wales. One night he went with a
friend to town to attend a dance.
His friend had a date, and the
date had a friend. She was Olive
Winifred King. The 25-year-old
soldier and the young girl from
Wales became engaged. Pvt. Fitz-
maurice applied through Army
channels for permission to get mar
ried. Permission finally came, but
by that time he was in France
chasing the Germans with the
Army of Gen. George S. Patton, jr
Pvt. Fitzmaurice applied for a
furlough to return to England to be

Arbitrator 10 Decide
Trucking Industry
Dispute This Week

Hugh Sheridan of New York,
arbitrator in the trucking industry
wage dispute here, which tied up
freight transfers, between the rail-
roads, warehouses and stores during
the pre-Christmas shopping rush,
will hand down his decision some
time this week, he indicated today
In long-distance telephone in
terview with The Star, Mr.. Sheridan
said he was faced with the stipu-
lated deadline next Saturday, by
which time he necessarily would
deliver his decision.
Meanwhile, however, he thought
it might be possible to get it out
two or three days before that"
He did not want to promise what
day it would be sent out from his
office. He is head of the Arbitra-
ton Authority for the New York
City Trucking Industry.
His findings, as a result of recent
hearings in the Labor Department
Building here, will be mailed to
the two parties concerned and the
Labor Department itself. he said.
The three identical reports will be
mailed out at the same time, he said
and ostensibly should reach the
three here spontaneously.
The dispute hinged on wage in
creases demanded by the trucking
union here, and also involved sew
eral so-called fringe" issues. All
OF these issues were to be SUBJ
mitted to the single arbitrator
under a stipulation signed by the
II trucking companies and the
union, which brought an end to the
strike.

l25, 900 Units Slated
For Hospitals Expected
To Last Four Years

A total Of $4,000 units of blood
plasnla contributed by American
donors for the armed forces will be
used in Veterans Administration
hospitals, it was announced today.
The blood plasma, which will be
turned over to the Veterans Ad-
ministration shortly by the Amer
lean Red Cross, is part Of the 1000
000-unit surplus turned back by the
Army and now being made available
to every civilian hospital. The Vet
Grams Administration estimated this
bank" of plasma for the 81 veter-
ans hospital would last approx
mately four years.
The Veterans Administration also
announced that the number of vet
Grams receiving hospital and vet
Grams home care reached an all
time peak of 1928 on December Is.
3,942 Beds Unoccupied.
OF the World War II hospitalized
veterans. 12,785 had service con-
nected disabilities and 14,467 had
vice-connected illnesses. The
rest of the 27,556 World War II vet
Grams in the hospitals were under
observation or receiving Temporary
disqualification pending an investi-
cation of their eligibility.
The December Is reports, the
agency said, showed that only 3942
available beds in veterans hospitals
were unoccupied, leaving less than
per cent of the beds available for
emergency use. Another 1904 beds
were unavailable because of the
shortage of personnel to staff wards.
Mount Alto Hospital here was one
of four veterans hospitals through
out the country with all beds in use
The hospital had four more patients

ported.
In another medical development
Howard F. Dickensheets, Washing
ton regional manager of the Veter-
ans Administration, said that by
February IS backlog of 800 medi-
cal examinations for Washington
area veterans will have been wiped
out.
Mr.. Dickensheets said that vet
Grams who must have a medical ex-
animation before they can be given
a pension are getting priority on
examinations.
The shortage of doctors, which
had caused the backlog of examina-
tons, will be relieved soon by the
addition of one full-time and five
part-time physicians, Mr.. Dicken-
sheets said.
