 Teerminello charged that a smear campaign started against him late in 1914 following a sermon a Huntsville, Ala. in which he advo- cated the Pearl Harbor inVeStiga- ton.
 More than 100000 copies of the sermon were printed and distributed by the Christian Crusade, he said, and the petition calling for the Pearl Harbor investigation was started shortly afterward
 He said there were more than 25,000 members of the Union of Christian Crusaders.
 Terminello expressed the view that the U. s, was headed for a third world war

 Terminello said he planned to go to Washington at the end of the Pearl Harbor investigation to con- fer with Congressional leaders
 All the leaders of Nationalist or ganizations are going to converge on Washington when this thing i; over," he said.

 MIrchito May Face Trial Says Chief PrOsecutOT

Washington, Nov. 29-The deci- sion on whether Emperor Hirohito will be tried as a war criminal VIII be made after he reaches Tokyo, Joseph B. Keenan, chief prosecutor of the Japanese War Criminals, said tonight in a broadcast with U. s. Sen. Brien McMahon D., Conn) over the Connecticut State network.
 Tojo, "his associates and prede- cessors" will find themselves on the prisoners docket. MT. Keenan said. Appearing as guest on Sen. McMa- hons weekly statewide broadcast, he announced that he and his as sistants are leaving Saturday for Tokyo.
 Every effort will be made to sep- arate the major war criminals Y from those who have "sinned more grievously in the matter of occupa- ton tasks and who have mistreated our prisoners, MT. Keenan de- clared. The latter group will be taken care of through court mar tials and will proceed along the lines of the case against Gen. Yamashita, who is now on trial in Manila, he said.
 T hope" remarked Sen. McMa- hon, that you will see to it that the fellows who cut the heads off our American flyers who were shot down in Japan, that something will be done to bring those fellows to justice"
 q think every effort will be made to do this" MT. Keenan replied because those people too believe that while the American people are just and fair, these criminals should receive their due punishment"
 Sen McMahon urged MT. Keenan not to adopt the frame of mno that his group was going to inf1ict punishment on a conquered, help less people.
 we have the desire to carry out American ideals of justice in every land, everywhere we go,' MT. Kee- nan said. This is not American open season hunting
 Have you anything you can say now about some of the raScals you are going to put on trial?" Sen. McMahon asked.
 "Tojo will find himself on the prisoners docket MT. Keenan re- piled. "as well as his associates and predecessors. Whether we vii reach to the very. very top will be decided when we get there.'

 He warned that inhationary pressures are still great. and he saw danger signals" building up through the winter and spring, par ticularly in rising real estate, wholesale and raw materials prices.
 We must continue to hold the line" he said. "We cannot permit, imitation"
 He agreed that there was dan ger of imitation, but this danger, he said, is not nearly as great in his opinion as the threat of in flation.
 Cites Statistics
 Business continues good" the President said, citing statistics to show that retail sales are up 10 per cent over the same period of last year, steel Ingot production has gone up sharply since V-J Day and electric power production now is only IA per cent under the war time peak.
 The President attributed the up- surge of strikes since V-J Day to the fact that parties TOW in dis pute held their grievances in check during the war. New strikes since August, he said, totaled about 1,500 involving about 100000 workers.
 He said that time lost through work stoppages since August was estimated at .76 of one per cent of the total working time avail able

 ambassador over career men.
 Tn his personal inquiry, Byrnes was interested primarily in the rec ords of two career men most strong ly objected to by Hurley = George Atcheson, Jr., and John Stewart Service. They were among the 10 subordinate foreign service men re- called from China at Hurley's re- quest.
 MacArthur Has Both
 Atcheson is now political adviser to Gen. Douglas MacArthur, sup reme Allied commander in Japan, and Service also is on MacArthur's staff. Services was arrested last summer on a federal charge of un- authorized possession of State de- partment documents, but was later cleared by a Federal Grand jury.
 Rep. Albert D. Gore, D., Tenn, and Rep. Christian A. Herter, R., Mass, teamed up to introduce a res olution calling for special seven member House committee to investi- gate the recruitment and training of foreign service personnel, and the administration and application of foreign policy to occupied areas formerly held by the enemy.

 T don't think the American peo- pie will ever get over the blow struck at Pearl Harbor," Sen. Mo- Mahon said. We did everything we knew how to avoid briging on that war. We stood on moral prin- ciples from which we could not re- treat. It is comforting to know that those responsible will come within the purview of your activities"

 Success Disclosed
 How successful his methods which consisted mostly of conserving gas- oline by throttle control, were is best told by the communique issued by MacArthur's headquarters on Oct. 13, which gave the news of the Balikpapan raid on Oct. 10 - except, of course, for Lindbergh's part in it.
 That communique reported that five groups of heavy bombers-they were B-24 Liberators-had dropped 135 tons of high explosive bombs on Balikpapan. They had been escorted by American fighters, which had flown a round trip of 1,500 miles, and had shot down most of the 36 Japanese fighter destroyed Our losses were three fighters and one bomber.
 In other words, the distance our fighters could fly to protect our bombers on thei raids had been al- most doubled Kenney and other air force leaders gave Lindbergh most of the credit
 Did Not Report Trips
 But the communique didn't report that Lindbergh had gone along, in his own words, just to see how it works out
 He was flying with Americas fn- est fighter pilots. Maj Richard Ira Bong, of Poplar, Wis, whose score of 40 enemy planes destroyed made him this country's top-ranking ace of all time, was in the formation. He got his 18th and 30th thst day. Maj. Thomas B. McGuire, of Ridge field. N. J., second-ranking ace; was there There wasn't. a green pilot among the more than 30 fighters on the mission
 Mcclure was to die alter strafing a Japanese destroyer in the Philip pines, and Bong in test flight of a jet plane in California. Both told me, in interviews before their deaths
 'Lindbergh was as hot a pilot as any of US, He would have been out there knocking of Japs every day if Kenny had let him.

UNO System Is Disputed
Continued from Page D

Gromyko opposed the temporary committee on the ground that it would be unofficial and mconsti- tutional.' He pointed out that there was nothing for such com mittee to do. and recalled that the UNO charter calls for three cate gories of territories-enemy state territory to be transferred, manda- tory territories, and others placed under the system voluntarily.
 Under the charter, he said, q tenn porary committee at best would be able to take action only on man. dates
 But up to this time" he said, the Soviet Union has not heard any mandatory power propose to place mandate under the trustee ship system.'
 YugosIavia Supports
 Gromyko was supported by Yugo- slavia, which likewise felt that a temporary committee would delay rather than speed creation of the trusteeship system. The Yugoslav delegate referred to the fact that trust agreements were to be nego- tiated by states directly concerned "a phrase he said never was clari- fled. He called on the mandatory powers to say now what nations they consider in that category.
 The United Kingdom, South Af- rica and Australia strongly support ed the temporary committee plan The United States suggested that plans preferable to a temporary there might be other compromise committee, but did not specify.
 The committee chairman, Gull lermo Belt of Cuba, adjourned the meeting and said the first order o1 business tomorrow would be consid- eration of alternative proposals.

URBAN EXPENDITURES

Recently, encouragement was given by decision of the Illinois Supreme Court to plans of the Chamber of Con- merce and other business and civic groups to open the way for rebuilding the blight or slum areas of cities after the war through privately financed de- velopments
 The court ruled in effect that the sub sequent development by private enter prise, of an area acquired by eminent do- main does not invalidate the exercise of this power, since the public purpose served is the clearance of the slum or blight areas.
 As rule it is generally agreed that without assistance in the assembly of land, private developers will be unable to undertake any extensive rebuilding of rundown urban areas.
 The only practical method for such as- sistance can come through city's exer- sice of the power of eminent domain to acquire blight or slum areas, to clear and replat them and then sell or lease them under proper safeguarded agreemnts to individual or private developers.
 It will be noted the court ruled that
The Nome nugget., 1945-05-18

the taking of property for the purpose of the elimination, redevelopment and re- building of certain areas meets all the requirements of public use and purpose within the principals of the law.
 The fact that the Act does not provide for the continued use of the property for public use, does not in any way affect the purpose of the Act or the taking of the property for purposes not public.

U.. s. Hopes For Large Seal Take This Year
WASHINGTON, May l6-(R-

WASHINGTON, May l6-tP-
 United States hopes to take sev- enty-five thousand or more seal skins this year in sealing opera tions starting in the Pribilof Is- lands about May 25.
 The Interior Deparament said hat only 48,0OO skins were taken last year, due in part to the fact that many of the seals reached the rookeries too late for tre pelts to be in prime condition. As of last August the Pribilof seal herd numbered slightly less than three million animals, more than 80 per cent of all the seals in the world, the Department said.

NEW TASKS, NEW NEEDS

The single greatest obstacle to our crushing of Japan is distance. While in the Battle of Europe supply ships from our bases in England had only an over night run to make, ships in the Pacific have long-reach round trips taking up to months to make.
 To crush Japan will take time, heroic and backbreaking effort, overpowering equipment.
 Millions of fighting men-freshly out fitted and equipped-will have to be moved from Europe halfway around the globe; and supplied day-in, day-out by hundreds of new ships now building
 More of everything will be needed More B-29's. More tanks, half-tracks, jeeps and trucks. More rockets, mortars, airborne radar.
 A whole new air force is in creation huge new bombers dwarfing the Super fortress-fast new jet-propelled combat planes, the P-80 or Shooting Star" coming off the lines by thousands.

VETERANS GUIDE
By MAJOR THOMAS M. MAJ

young man named Ralph-lives in upstate New York-who was with the. First Division in the American invasion of Africa. Af- Yer several months, he got it in one of The scraps in Tun'sia. A bursting shell chucked steel into his left arm and then dropped him on his back across a stone wall.
 Late in 1944, he was discharged with 50 per cent disability. I saw him in May, 1944, and he'd ap- piled for disability pay. In July he had received nothing. No change in August. September-no disability pay. I don't know whether he has it yet. He will sometime.
 But why couldn't he get those payments sooner? It's because the Veterans Administration hasn't b e en sufficiently manned or equipped to handle a task that each day is enlarging like gas house tank.
 Only people who work in bur- eaus like bureaus. Most everyone else walls about the evils of bur- eaus. But it seems obvious that new laws must be administered. The CT Bill of Rights, offering many benefits to war veterans, and other laws authorizing rights for veterans, must be admins tered.
 So, to administer the veterans laws, the Veterans Administra- ton was created. It's one of those bureuas. It was once called the Veterans Bureau.
 Though large and costly, it isn't evil; but it can make mistakes and cause delays. Probably more extra work is caused by those who think they were disabled in serv- ice or by those who don't think so but claim they were, than by the veterans who have clear cases. It's the former kinds of cases that throw monkey wrenches into the creaking machinery of the V. A.
 Just a short time back the V. A. was around 100000 disability claims behind. There were that many pending cases, so it's easy to realize that it is struggling with tough task. And it's doing ok, too, for I have just been told that the number of pending claims is reasonably current - that the quantity has been squeezed down almost to normal. .,.
 Borderline cases demand much work, care and manpower. And new laws have added an addition al burden. So we can afford to be
