WAR TO BUSINESS PROVED POSSIBLE

MANAGUA, Nicaragua-tR- Stanley Atha, 39-year-old ex- Marine, born on a West Virginia farm, rose to command Nicara- guas presidential guard, turned to business and married a cabinet ministers daughter.
 In 1928, the Marines sent Atha and 16 other men to help form Nicaragua's new combination army and police force. Promoted to palace guard commander, he later led troops in the field against Sandino forces, fighting several pitched battles.
 When the Marines left he was permitted to remain with his wife. Now a business man here, he rep resents 40 American firms and does some importing. He also owns Managua property.

Sir John Orr Returns
To England 10 Accept
81 Year Crown Post
BY THOMAS r. HENRY.

Sir John Orr, head of the Food
and Agricultural Organization of the
United Nations, with headquarters
in Washington, has just returned to
England to accept from King George
appointment as Steward of the
Chiltern Hundreds with a salary of
one pound, or 81, year.
Immediately upon acceptance of
this office he automatically will be
expelled from Parliament. Then he
will resign at once his new dignity
as an officer of the crown and return
to Washington.
He considers this step essential to
square his conscience with an oath
which he himself drafted-and thus
far has been the only man to take
two months ago when the constitu-
tion of the FAC was drafted at an
international conference at Quebec
and which requires all employees of
the organization to be citizens of
the world" They must owe no par
ticular allegiance to any government.
Last March the position of mem
ber of Parliament representing the
Scotch Universities was rendered
vacant by the death of the incum-
bent. Sir John, one of Great
Britain's foremost scientists, stood
for the seat as an independent with
little expectation of winning. But

action and that the original de-
cision of the three-man board

Regular Navy Medals
81 Times Those Given
Reserves, Is Charge

Officers and enlisted men of the
Regular Navy came out of the wal
with three and a half times more
medals proportionately than those
received by the Naval Reserves, de-
spite the fact that the latter played
q major role in the war and suf-
fered a proportionate number of
casualties, the Army and Navy Bull
letin charges in, its current edition,
out today.
The Bulletin said the Navy is now
trying to even up the score to meet
growing criticism lin Congress.
Regulars received 81 more Med
ais of Honor, highest decoration the
Nation can give for heroism in COM
bat" the journal said. Not single
reserve had been awarded the Dis
tinguished Service Medal up to July
81, 1945, although 139 had been
awarded to regulars.
Officers received 13 times more
medals than enlisted men in pro-
portion to their numerical strength" ="
The Bulletin based its conclusions
on the fact there were 271,7l9 re-
serve officers and $4,000 regular Of
flcers, 1851 ,252 enlisted reserves and
323,559 regulars in the Navy last
July 81. Only $4,000 of the regular
officers were Annapolis graduates,
the magazine said.
The publication, which is an un-
official organ published for reserves
and edited by c. G. Moore, said that
since the House Naval Affairs Com
mittee recently turned it's attention
to Navy decorations, the Board of
Medals and Awards "has been grind
ing them out by the thousands,
many of the medals going to re-
serves, in an apparent effort to
even up the score" The magazine
said more than 10000 citations were
announced between July 81 and Oc-
tober l, when the total had grown
to 10000, exclusive of commenda-
ton ribbons.

The Greyhound Garage of WASH

hound buses, yesterday filed suit
asking District Court to declare as
final decision of three-man ar
bltration board in November, 1914,
upholding the right of the corpora
ton to discharge two of it's employees
as a disciplinary measure.
The two men were discharged, the
suit said, following strike of en-
ployes in violation of contract be-
tween the corporation and the union

Street, Electric Railway and Motor
Coach Employees of America, Local

After the three-man board rem

that the two discharged employees
be relnstated, but without back paw.

Potential Investors 10 GET
Data on PARKING Demand

The District Motor Vehicle Park
ing Agency will prepare maps from
parking data obtained during a two
year. prewar study to show private
investors where the demand for
parking is and thus encourage their
participation in solving the problem.
The plan was disclosed last night
by Frank w. Lovejoy, acting direc-
tor of the agency, after a meeting
yesterday at Municipal Center.
Engineer Commissioner Gordon
R. Young appeared before the
agency and offered any kind of per-
manent or temporary help he could
to keep things moving.
The agency will meet again next
week, he said, to continue its at
tack on the pressing parking
problem.

when the vote was counted he was
the victor by almost 10 to /.
Once man is elected as repre-
sentative of the Scottish Universi-
ties he usually holds the seat for
life. In the July elections he was
returned again overwhelmingly.
When he became head of the
FAC he found that it is impossible,
under British law, to resign a seat
in Parliament. The only way out
until new general election is held
is to be expelled. But under Brit
ish law no man can hold two pay

body.
Once out of Parliament, Sir John
Is free to resign as Steward of the
Chiltern Hundreds-an Office which
no longer carries any duties what
soever. Thus he will free himself
completely from any ties with the
British government.
