PARIS, Dec. 15.-France will have

His ex-majesty's appeal from
Brazil that he be admitted into

ployed in industry, the Bureau of
Labor Statistics reported last night.
All but one of the major industry
divisions reported gains in Novem-
ber, when employment increased by
413,000 workers, according to the re-
port. The largest increase, 286, 1000,
was in trade establishments which
hired workers to meet the Christmas
shopping rush.
On the other hand, the report
pointed out, the number of Govern
ment employees declined by $4,000.
with most of the drop concentrated

Despite decline of 10000 workers
In aircraft and shipbuilding produc-
ton, the heavy industries showed an
increase of 27,000 workers. Between
October and November, employment
OF production workers in factories
increased by 10000.
Inc statlsticians reported finding
evidences that reconversion is well
under way in ALMOST all the indus
tries which had teen important in
the war effort. Most significant en-
ployment gain was in the automo-
bile industry where $4,000 workers
were added to the payrolls, but gains
OF 10000 or more were noted in iron
and steel, electrical and other ma
chinery. non-ferrous metals and
furniture.
The increase in employment was
slightly larger in the light industries
with the addition of $4,000 produc-
ton workers in textile, leather,
printing, rubber and miscellaneous
groups.
Employment in major industry
divisions was divided as follows:
Manufacturing, 12,015 900; mining.

the Carlan home for the solution
of the mystery.
One of these was the time factor,
he said. Mrs. Carlan had reported
the baby missing at 4 pm, a half
hour after she said she had placed
the carriage out in the sun.
But police found a 17-year -old
girl in the neighborhood, who said
she had seen the carriage empty at
2:30 pm, and who was able to boil
ster her statement by corroboration
Of her movements that afternoon.
Missing" Bottle Another Clue.
Then, Mr.. Cullinane said, there
was Mrs. Carlan's report that q
hexagonal nursing bottle was taken
with the baby from the carriage.
Mrs. Carlan, he said. mentioned
a number of times that the miss
ing" bottle was one Of the "only four
we ever had"
Later police counted four hexag-
onal nursing bottles on a shelf in
the Carlan kitchen.
WIN tneSe TWO discrepancies TO
work on, police returned to the Car
Ian home. One Of the Chelsea de-
tectives, Matthew Flaherty, pulled
out the bottom drawer of the china
closet and discovered the body un-
derneath.
In Springfield today = 14-year-
old girl was arraigned on a charge
OF being delinquent by reason of
attempted extortion. The case was
continued to next Friday for hear
ing.
Police said the girl admitted tel
ephoning Mr.. Carlan with a de-
mand for a $500 ransom for the
return Of the baby.
Mr.. Carlan went to Springfield
prepared to pay the money, but no
one met him.

"If we don't hide the atom away

To the distress of the crew,

rebelled, Molotov asked, Very well,

Attlee and the captain replied to
Molotov by singing duet, to the
tune Of Wanting You," which
ended:

lHEN began a strange hunted
existence for the Spencers and a
small group of engineers and mis-

among jungle savages who had
never seen white people. They
learned to live by their wits, under
the most primitive of conditions.
But the Japs advanced rapidly
and the group scattered to live in
native straw huts. They slept on
bamboo poles, ate strange foods.

tells about in her book Guerrilla

food was the daily adventure, its
preparation and stretching was

was a matter for laughter. When
