Bargaining Means Asked
(International Soundphoto)

(Continued from Page D posal however, but the outlook was none too good for the CIO.
 The executive committee and the proposal yesterday by asking the executive committee to put 1t on the conference agenda. It argued that the question should not be side- stepped since it is the basis of more than 68 per cent of the disputes in which strike votes have been re- quested.
 The executive cmmittee and the six standing committees of the con- ference scheduled meetings today to begin spade work toward the con- ference goal-development of a pro- gram to minimize industrial dis putes.
 CIO To Continue Fight
 Fresh CIO moves were expected to force consideration of a permanent Fair Employment Practices commis- sion and the right of supervisory workers and foremen to bargain col- lectively.
 Other issues which may be brought up before the standing committees include voluntary arbitration, which many management delegates op- pose; proposal of Secretary of Labor Lewis B. Schwellenbach that unions consider naming czar to settle jurisdictional disputes, which labor delegates oppose, and sugges- tions that the Railway Labor act be followed as model for minimizing strife in other industries.
 The battle over labor's demands for higher wage rates without price increases also ragged outside the con- ference itself.
 RejectiOns Reported
 The United States Steel Corp. re- jected the appeal by Schwellenbach last Saturday that it resume collec- tive bargaining with the United Steelworkers (CIO) on the unions g day wage increase demand. The union accepted.
 In Detroit the United Automobile workers (CIO) rejected General Motors Corp. offer of 10 per cent increase in basic wage rates instead Of the 30 per cent demanded by the union.
 The UAW-CIO at the same time asked President Truman that fixing of retail prices of new automobiles be withheld pending an investiga- tion by reconversion Director John w. Snyder. The Union is opposed to prices higher than the 1942 level.

 forthcoming British statement on Palestine.
 Stalin Whereabouts Mystery
 Whereabouts of Stalin still were the most-discussed topic in diplo- matic quarters. A Moscow dispatch to the Daily Express said Stalin still was on vacation on the Cau- casus. However, all that definitely was known was that he failed to participate actively in Red Revolu- tion anniversary festivities for the first time in years.
 Other topics scheduled for dis cussion by MT. Truman and Attlee were believed atomic power, Pale stine and financial aid for Britain. A Daily Mail editorial said that if the United States and Britain keep the atomic bomb secret, it can only be because they miStruSt Rus sia.
 Speeches Pack Dynamite
 The Daily Express called speeches during the past 48 hours by Soviet Foreign Commissar " M. Molotov and British Foreign Secretary Ernest Bevin 8 clash of temperaments" on whose development may hinge future peace.
 The Times said what is done now with atomic energy may have in calculable diplomatic consequences in fostering or allaying suspicion be- tween the great nations of the world and in retaroing or promoting the growth of that confidence in which the chief hope of lasting peace must repose."

Trained Men Are Urgent

 Survival may depend, he added Ion our ability to mount an im- mediate counter r-offensive that will enable us to establish control of the enemy's launchicng sites and pro- duction facilities"
 Do Not Depend on Bombs
 Patterson pointed out that many Americans believe that all that is needed in the future to protect our security "are a supply of atomic bombs and a comparative handful of trained men to fulfill other than trained men to push the buttons that will set off the bombs
 T know of no responsible military authority who shares that belief" he declared. "On the contrary, all are agreed that the bombs capacity for destruction and the suddenness with which it can strike enormously increase the need for maintaining in every section Of the United States trained citizen soldiers capable of swift mobilization in the event of an atomic or airborne attack"
 Patterson asked for universal training instead of large standing army because the latter would be too expensive. Also, he said, main- tepance of @ large professional fighting force in peacetime is re- pugnant to the spirit of our de- mocracy."

VIVID CONTRASTS
The two closing ceremonies were
vivid contrasts. Here it was smooth,
unhurried, uncrowded and orderly,
clearly organized with an eye to
the photogenic results in the news
reels. In Versailles 26 years ago,
there was an unruly mob of states
men elbowing each other to get a
sight of the Big Woodrow
Wilson, Georges Clemenceau, Da-
vid Lloyd George and Orlando of
Italy.
The greatest contrast, of course,
is in the two documents framed
here and at Versailles. The Cov-
enant of the League of Nations
was part of the Versailles Treaty
marking the end of World War l.
The new United Nations is an en-
tity in itself, linked with no other
pact.
The Covenant of the League was
designed to bring action cnly when
acts of aggression or war were un-
der way-in other words, after the
trouble had started The new

War Prisoners
To Keep Jobs

WASHINGTON, June %. (UP)-
Able-bodied prisoners of war will
be kept in this country as long as
American manpower is not avail
able to replace them in essential
work, the War Department said.
Maj. Gen. Archer L. Lerch, Pro-
vost Marshal General, said that
1890 German and 300 Italian sick
and wounded prisoners would be
shipped from the U. S. back to
Europe starting next week. During
the summer, Lerch said, about
5000 unfit Germans will be re-
turned to Europe.
There were 421,291 Germans and
Italians held here June 1, Lerch
said. For the balance of the year,
he said, 224,70O will be kept for
work on military and naval in
stallations and $4,000 will be as
signed to civilian duties during the
peak of the agricultural season.

NEW RULING OPENS U. S.
HOUSING TO VETERANS

Distressed families of service
men and veterans henceforth will
be permitted to rent space in war
housing projects by means of a
bill recently approved by President
Harry Truman in Washington, it
was announced.
This was hailed as good news in
Ell Centre but ardor cooled when
it was ascertained that 80 houses
in Palm Courts, federal housing
project, are full and each has a
long waiting list. The law pre-
viously limited tenants to families
of war workers.
AS soon as news of the bill
leaked out, officers CT the housing
project in El Centro were visited
by more than dozen service FAM
lilies who wanted places to live.

new order ultimately will ease the
housing shortage throughout I'M

Unionisi Loses
In Court RuIinq

CHICAGO, June %. CUP)-A
ruling by Superior Judge Donald
S. McKinlay declared Wednesday
that labor union may engage in
political activity but may not at
tempt to bind it's members to its
political beliefs.
The ruling was made by Judge
McKinlay in holding that a main
tenance of membership clause in
contract between the United
r a lilo, Electrical, and Machine
Workers union (CIO) and the
Chicago Flexible Shaft Company
was legal
The judge refused to issue an
injunction sought by Harry Nor
gan, 36, former turret lathe op-
orator at the plant Morgan wanted
to enjoin the union from depriv-
ing him of his job because he no
longer was union member.
Morgan charged he lost his job
when he was ousted from the
unicn because he had refused to
distribute political action commit
tee literature. He also alleged that
the union was communist domin-
ated and was used by the PAC to
help the democrats win the 1914
election.
The union maintained, how
ever, that Morgan had rescinded
his union membership, and there
fore no longer was entitled to hold
his job under the maintenance-of-
membership provision.

Tells of Life
In Nazi Prison

Boiled barley and five-sixths of
loaf of soggy black bread a week
was the fare the Germans provided
Lieutenant Milton Damron of Ell
Centre while he was a prisoner at
Stalag Luft 3B near Sagan, Ger
many.
"We would have had much
harder time" Lieutenant Damron
said Thursday in Ell Centre, '.if it
had not been for the American Red
Gross. The Red Cross gave us some
food or we would have been in a
worse way then we were. We really
had to depend on the Red Cross"
He said the weather was terribly
cold. Each prisoner had a pair of
trousers, shirt, shoes, and CT over
coat. The Germans issued one blan-
ket to each man. Then along came
the Red Cross with a CT wool blan-
ket. Those good, wool blankets
were wonderful" he declared. They
really saved our lives"
Lieutenant Damron and other
American airmen captured by the
Germans were subjected to ques-
tioning after they were captured.
He said he is in good condition and
was not so bad off, in spite of the
experiences he had gone through.
The pilot was shot down over
Kiel, Germany, last summer.
I'm getting along fine with the
baby" he said, speaking of the baby
born after he left for overseas duty.
His parents are Mr.. and Mrs. Don

UNCI0 Sets Up
Commission

SAN FRANCISCO. June %. (UP)
The preparatory commission" OF
the United Nations formaiiy came
into existence late Wednesday with
the promise that it may be able
to begin conducting business In
London about August l.
The commission was set up by
the United Nations conference to
make arrangements for the first
meeting of the new security organ
ization after the necessary rat1fi-
cation of the peace charter. Each
of the so member nations are rep
resented on the commission. DR..
Leo Pasvolsky of the state depart
ment represented the United States.
The meeting was a formality ito
bring the commission into exist
ence." 1t was decided that because
the commission will have head
quarters in London, the British
government would name an interim
officer to prepare for the first
meeting and its subordinate ex-
ecutive committee of IA nations.
The next step will be an execu-
tive committee meeting in London.
The executive committee then will
call a meeting of the full commits
sion, probably after ratification of
the charter. The commission then
will issue the formal call for the
first meeting Of the general as
sembly and Security Council-the
step which will signal the begin
ming Of the new organization set
up here.

charter authorizes action when
| there are only threats of trouble.
And it also provides for armed
might to quell action whereas the
old League lacked means of back
ing up its decisions.
TWO 1919 SIGNERS
Only two men who were among
Signers of the Covenant were on
hand to sign the new United Ma
tions Charter-Dr. v. K. yelling
ten Koo of China and the vener-
able Field Marshal Jan C. Smuts,
Premier of South Africa.
At Versailles, the diplomats wore
striped trousers, morning coats and
high silk toppers. For the signing
of the United Nations Charter, the
delegates came in business suits
of all colcrs and all cuts. Many
arrived hatless.
Clemenceau signed at Versailles
with goose quill whose point he
had whitfield himself. Here, there
were two pens on the great circu-
lar table where the new charter
was signed. But most delegates
preferred to use personal pens for
the historic occasion.
Between Versailles and San
Francisco, there was considerable
shake-up in the lineup of world
powers. Twenty-six years ago Italy
was one of the Big Four of the
winning side; here she was an ex-
enemy state without representa-
ton here.
Russia, now one of the big five,
was only in the ranks in 1919.
At Versailles, Ignace Paderewski
the great pianist, and Marshal
Pilsudski signed for the newly
created Poland. On the United
Nations Charter there was left a
blank space where, eventually, the
newly-formed government of Po-
land will sign.
The United Nations profited by
the experience of the old League
in drafting their new charter. Only
time can tell, however, whether
they will profit by the greatest
leSson-that the nations which
work to compose a document can
make it succeed only if they MAIN
tain their common front through
the years of peace.

Hog Producers
Plan to Hike
States Output

SACRAMENTO, June %. CUP)-
California hog raisers plan a Is
per cent increase in fall pig pro-
duction, the first upswing in the
pig crop since the fall of 1943, the
state Department of Agriculture
reported.
A national increase cf IL per
cent is expected, the department
said. Both spring and fall pig
crops of 1914 were drastically re-
duced due to changed feed and
price relationships.
California hog production is
small compared to corn belt states,
but the states pig crops are an i'm
portant factor in local meat sup
plies, the department emphasized.
Harold c. Phillips, department
statistician, regards the increase in
fall farrowings as moderate" ad-
ding that the proposed expansion
shows the caution with which hog
raisers are viewing present pro-
duction incentives.
