Wherry Seeks 10 Stir
Senate Discussion Of
Jap Peace FeeIers
1y the Associated Press.

Senator Wherry, Republican
of Nebraska sought today to steer
the Senate into a discussion o1
whether this country has re-
ceived any genuine peace feeler.
from Japan.
Senator Wherry told reportel
he plans to ask anew If the Stat,
Department has received any of.
fers and to call attention of hi
colleagues to a compilation Of pur.
ported feelers he said had beer
made by "a high military source
and forwarded to President Truman
at Potsdam.
Senator Wherry said this high
military source" had handed him q
communication addressed to Mr.
Truman and carrying suggestions oi
possible peace terms. These in
clude retention of the Emperor and
avoidance of military occupation OF
Japan proper.
Author of Message Unknown.
The Nebraska Senator said these
terms were based on feelers report
edly received, but he added he did
not know who had written the mes
sage to the President.
The State Department has in
sisted it has received nothing in the
way of genuine peace offer from
Japan.
We're talking of peace here in
connection with the United Nations
Charter" Senator Wherry said. II
want to know why we can't lay down
some peace terms under which
Japan can surrender. I think that
If the President did that, we might
get a surrender on our own terms
that would end this war"
Senator Wherry said it was his
understanding that the high mill
tary source" whom he refused to
identify further, believed the terms
stated in the communication to Mr..
Truman might be acceptable.
Purported Message Divulged.
The purported missive, an un-
signed copy of which was handed to
q reporter by Senator Wherry, fol-
lows:
President Harry S. Truman,
''Potsdam Conference,
''Potsdam, Germany,
Wont you stop slaughter of
American boys and japanese civil
ians Immediately by message from
Potsdam promising Japan that i'm
mediately after her unconditional
surrender the Emperor will be REIN
stated in accordance with Secretary
Byrnes promise that Japan shall
retain her social and religious free
dom and that the Emperor shall be
empowered TO set up new cabinet
acceptable to the Allies and one that
will protect our vital interests; fur
ther, that we do not regard military
occupation of Japan proper as nee
eSsary, but that a control commits
sion be authorized to see to it that
while Japan's social and economic
problems are left in her own hands,
her capacity for military aggression
shall be completely destroyed. Other
terms would be as already pro-
claimed in Cairo declaration, with
the added provision for the ordered
withdrawal of Japanese troops from
the continent after the Allies have
moved in"
The Cairo declaration, signed in
November, 1943. by President Roose-
welt, Prime Minister Churchill and
Generalissimo Chang Kai-shek,
. called for Japan to be stripped of
all Pacific islands she has seized or
occupied since outbreak of the
World War.
Japan also would be forced to re-
linuuish Manchuria, Formosa and
the Pescadores and would be "ex-
PEELED from all other territories she
had taken by violence and greed"
The declaration pledged indepen-
dence for Korea in due course"

ASSDtIdgtu iSoa SpOtts "AAsSt'
NEW YORK, April 5.-News
from Cornells spring football
drills reveals that Gil Bouley is
due to fill tackle slot on the Big
Red team next fall. And Gil's
presence will insure that "big"
tag. He's the 235-pounder who
was sophomore sensation at Bos-
ton College three years ago. Since
then he has been in and out of
the Army and chose to follow his
favorite coach, Ed McKeever, to
Cornell. No one is likely to say
much about one man going to a
school like Cornell, but more than
one college athletic leader is
afraid such transfers will become
a habit. One school of thought is
that ex-servicemen should be al
1bwed to compete only for the
colleges where they started.
q Here's what Syracuse's Lew
Andreas, who has devoted con-
siderable thought to the subject,
has to say about postwar trans
fers: II believe it will be for the
best interests of intercollegiate
sport to apply the transfer rule
strictly. This will work hardship
in some cases and perhaps these
Eases could be referred to q spe-
cial board representing such
groups as the Eastern Intercol-
legiate Football Association. Un-
less the transfer rule is applied
strictly, I believe we shall witness

In Flag Race, Ayers
Leader Pennock
~ the Associated Press.


WILMINGTON, Del, April ST.
Robert M. [Bob) Carpenter may
have whitfield one when he predicted
In 1914 that his Phillies would be q
pennant contender in five years.
Joining the wartime speedup pro-
gram, the Phils already have en-
tered their bid for that flag this
year.
General Manager Herb Pennock
says naturally I'm not predicting
the Phils will finish first, second OF
third-but we're an improved ball
club and Wen be playing to win.
He cited these reasons:
"We could easily afford to trade
Al Gerheauser to the Pirates for
Vince DiMaggio. Kenny Raffens-
berger, Vernon Kennedy, Charley
Schanz, Kewpie Barrett, Whit
Wyatt and the rest make up one OF
the finest pitching stats in the
league.
It think DiMaggio is the best
outf1elder in the league. -Four
young nfielders, Granville and Gar
win Hammer, Fred Daniels, Bitsy
Mott and Ralph Caballero have
speed, hustle, ambition and de-
termination. We're looking fol
Jimmy Foxx to play lot of first
base and help settle the boys"
Veteran Gus Mancuso and Andy
Seminick, up from Buffalo, probably
will do most of the catching. In
addition to DiMaggio, Pennock has
outfelders Jimmy Wasdell, Coaker
Triplett, Rene Monteagudo and
Rookie Vance Dinges. Buster Adams
is holdout.
Fates of 35-year-old Hurler Bill
Lee and Catching Recruit Al Spin
del are "in the hands of the draft
boards" Pennock said.

ATLANTA, April s. Sammy
Snead, golfdom's slammer from Hot
Springs, Va, has bad case of putter
filters, on which he blames his poor
showing in the three North Carolina
tournaments.
After two days of concentrated
putting practice here preparing for
the winter tours finale, the $4,000
Iron Lung Invitational which starts
today, he still isn't satisfied with his
green's play.
The pressure for the 72-hole affair
here will be even greater, for he is
anxious to tie the new tour record
set by Byron Nelson. He took a big
lead in winning three straight meets,
at Gulfport, Pensacola and Jackson

Replacing GaIehouse

Browns Big Task

CAPE GIRARDEAU. Mo-, April S
Finding replacements for starting
Pitchers Denny Galehouse and Bob
Muncrief is Manager Luke Sewell's
biggest immediate problem as the St.
Louis Browns prepare to defend
their first American League title.
The two right-handers, who both
have indicated they will remain on
war jobs, out of baseball, this year
won % games during the crucial
1914 pennant campaign.
1T will be some time after the
season starts before my pitching
staff can be put in order" Sewell
said today.
Sewen has three good veterans to
form the backbone of a starting
staff-Nelson Potter, Jack Kramer
and Sig Jakucki. This trio won 49
of the Browns SO victories last
year. Potter's 10 triumphs was the
third best in the league.
Most likely candidates for the
other two starting jobs are Al La
