NewFight0v UNRRA
Opens in House on
Plea for More Funds
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
A new fight over UNRRA
started in the House today. An
unfinished one still is hanging
fire in the Senate.
The new battle is over proposals
to give the United Nations Relief
and Rehabilitation Administration
another $3.50, 900 900 for the year
ending March 1, 1947.
The uncompleted controversy is
over a House-passed bill giving
UNRRA $3.50, 1000, 900 for relief work
this winter and next spring.
The latter dispute is not over the
amount. 1t is centered in restrictive
amendments, chiefly one that would
ban aid to any nation refusing to
permit American reporters free ac-
cess to news of UNRRA activities.
Amount Causes New Fight.
The new fight is over both the
amount and similar amendments
regulating how the money should
be handled.
1t shaped up when Chairman
Bloom of the House Foreign Affairs
Committee announced that he has
introduced a bill to provide the
funds and plans to start commit
tee hearings Wednesday. Mr.. Bloom
added that he intends to oppose the
so-called free press" amendment
and any others like it.
Republican leaders replied i'm
mediately that they would stick by
COP Food Study Committee re-
port on UNRRA, issued two weeks
ago. The report urged that:
Requests for funds beyond the
$550,0O0,000 be looked upon with
"jaundiced eyes" and that only
amounts absolutely necessary" be
provided.
Will Back Free Press.
The free press" amendment be
hitched to all UNRRA appropria-
tions.
Restrictions be adopted to in
crease efficiency, reduce UNRRA
salaries and insure recognition of
American relief efforts.
The United States authorized an
ALLEGATION of $3.50, 100000 to
UNRRA last year. The $3.50, 900 900
pending bill will use up that au-
thoriZation

For Protest Here TODAY

A vanguard of some 500 orthodox
Jewish rabbis, coming to Washing
ton to protest British exclusion OF
Jews in Palestine, arrived today in
Union Station.
A spokesman estimated that about

with Prime Minister Attlee or Lord
Halifax after the demonstration, a
spokesman said.
The White House said Presidential
Secretary Matthew j. Connolly

the rabbis at 2:30 pm.
They planned to present a four
point program calling for:
Carrying out of President Tru-
mans request for transfer of 100000
European Jewish refugees to Pales-
tine.
Reputation Of the 1899 British
White Paper curbing immigration
of Jews to Palestine.
Formation of an Anglo-American

which would bring the millennium.
Conference staff experts just shook
their heads.
"Man-hours worked by all clock
workers VS.. units of stock" was the
heading of an Oklahoman's plan.
The Government would umpire this
little scheme. He wrote, "All clock
employees participate in profits of
company in an equal amount with
stockholders, so many man-hours
worked against one unit of stock,
based on wages earned and actual
cash originally put into working
stock"
A woman in Michigan suggested
that Conference Chairman Walter
P. Stacy post a copy on Edgar

the desk of every delegate. She
added, 1T would help promote a
bit of unity and understanding.

for "the middle folk caught helpless

30-Hour Week Plan.
A Baltimorean presented an idea
whereby labor would be guaranteed
2,080 hours work a year at mini
mum of rs cents an hour. Labor
would get 20 per cent of net COM
pany profits after initial return of 6
per cent to investors, and an addi-
tional 10 per cent after a IL per cent
return. Half of whatever was left
after that also would go to labor.
Billed as plan to provide more
fun and relaxation" was a 3o-hour-
week idea, backed up by public works
jobs for those who wanted to work
longer.
An organization unknown to the
conference claimed to represent
$500 corporations employing from
500 to $4,000 workers and with an
nual payrolls running from $500, 900
to $7o,o0o.0o0.

Allied Rule Of Reich
Hindered by France,
Montgomery Asserts
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated PreSS.
BERLIN, Nov. 12.-Field Marshal
Sir Bernard L. Montgomery says he
believes French opposition toward
establishment of a central admin
istration is the chief obstacle to eff
ficient four-power control of Ger
many.
Furthermore, the British COM
mander fears that the hardships of
winter may bring about civilian out
breaks in the beaten Reich and has
distributed his troops accordingly.
Marshal Montgomery expressed
those views in an Armistice Day
news conference. He frankly stated
that cooperation among the four
powers has not proved sufficient up
to this date to make the govern
ment of Germany as whole by the
control council effective"
81" 1t has not been possible so
far to reconcile the view of France
in this matter with that of the
three powers which sat together at
Potsdam and agreed to establish
these central administrations, u
Marshal Montgomery said.
He expressed the belief that way
around the difficulties would be
found and added that certain
practical considerations" make uni
fed action imperative.
Official sources had said earlier
that the French were insisting that
their proposals for internationaliza
ton of the Ruhr and separation OF
the Rhineland from Germany be
discussed before the council consid-
cred a central administration.
Marshal Montgomery said that
while the Germans were docile and
well behaved at present, 'it is i'm
possible to estimate what will be the
effect on them Of the shortage OF
food and fuel under the rigorous
conditions of the Central European
winter"
The British commander reported
that his troops have been deployed
for a battle of the winter" They
will guard key points, supplement
protective forces at food and Goa,
dumps and be on the alert to rein.
force German civilian police
Outbreaks of German civilians
may well have a disastrous effect

Brain 7 easing Wage Formulas
Add Novelty to Conference

There are wage formulas to battle
the experts among the scores Of
suggestions pouring into the Ma
tional Labor Management Confer
ence, but there is one as simple
as A, B, C.
A Pennsylvania man, hard put
to make ends meet what with an
ever-growing family to support, sug-
gests that the number of children
a man has be the yardstick for
wages.
The 40-hour week might be all
right for a man with a wife and
maybe one or two kids" wrote the
father, whose children currently
number six, but what about the
larger family? Couldn't manage
ment adjust this somehow and at
least grant wage adjustments ac-
cording to the workers dependents?
It's the only road to a prosperous
and happy Nation"
Loan Drives Suggested.
The man said he had also sug-
gested that the Treasury Depart
ment have two more bond drives
and loan the money to large fam
lilies according to size"
You cannot expect to make a
mans wages spread thinner and
thinner every time he has a child u
he concluded.
The suggestions are addressed to
President Truman, Secretary of
Labor Schwellenbach or directly to
the conference. All of the suggest
ers obviously are deadly serious and
there are many ideas with real
merit.
But regardless of the sanity OF
the idea, each writer is sent q
thank you" note, which points out
that the conference has set UP q
special committee to handle outside
suggestions and complaints. Con-
ference attaches expect a new flood
of letters and requests for hearings
when the word gets around about

| House Group Divided
On Atomic Issue and
Universal Traininu
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Atomic energy and universal
training-two of the hottest
issues on Capitol Hill-have the
House Military Committee split
in two closely-balanced factions.
The questions, both of which may
be answered at a committee session
tomorrow, are:
/. Whether to reconsider "a bill
creating a Federal commission with
vast control over use and develop
ment of atomic energy.
2. Whether to shelye until next
year proposals calling for every
American youth to take one year ~.
military training.
In each case, the outcome ap-
pears to be toss-up.
Dispute Over Votes.
Chairman May told newsmen he
has the votes to stand back of the
atomic energy bill as it is written
and to continue hearings on the
UNIVERSAL training measure.
Committee Republican leaders.
however, claimed that they have
both plans blocked, at least tenn
porarily.
They emphasized that in each
case they are not attempting to
kill the legislation but are trying
to get more time for its considega-
ton.
Hearings on the universal train
ing bill began last Tuesday but were
interrupted when Representative
Short, Republican, of Missouri
moved to postpone them until next
year. A vote was delayed until this
week
Mr.. Short told reporters "the bill
is dead" for the present and said he
has enough supporters to back his
position.
Eisenhower Returning.
If such action is taken it would
prevent possible testimony this week
by Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower. The
latter is en- route to Washington
from Germany. Mr.. May said he
had no official word on the subject,
but added at is likely" Gen. Eisen-
hover would appear as a supporting
witness.
The committee already has ap-
proved an administration-backed
bill to set up the atomic energy
commission
The vote was close, however, and
brought a storm of protest from
many scientists because of the rigid
controls proposed. Then. over the
week end, nine committee members
signed a sharply dissenting report.
Commenting on this report. which
said the pending measure would
undermine the very foundations
upon which our national life is
built Representative Arends, Re-
publican, of Illinois, asserted in an
interview:
I'VE think that because so many
members oppose the bill, action may
not be pressed for a few weeks.
This would allow time for further
study of the best ways of regula-
tions and not stampede us into
something about which we aren't
sure"
The dissenting report urged that
any legislation now should be "of
interim character" and provide only
for temporary agency with re-
stricted controls, 1t said the pres
ent measure gives absolute and
limitless" authority to the suggested
commission. 1t recommended more
power instead for Congress.

Mine is trying to write an inter-

Mr.. Gilmore answered.
Come, now" said Mr.. Molotov,
you are not a politician and I will
not be one. You know you corre-
spondents do not like Soviet censor
ship. You want to wipe it out"
well, sir, you read our letter and
got our telegram" said Mr.. Gilmore,
referring to the protest which the
Anglo Correspondent As
sociation of Moscow had filed with
Mr.. Molotov concerning the con-
tinuation of censorship after the
end of the war. Molotov had
answered the protest by saying he

points in which the protest was
based.

What would you say If I told you
I would agree to reciprocity" Molo-
tov inquired.
II think it would be very fine

After the foreign commissar had
moved on a foreign diplomat who
had witnessed the proceedings whis-
pered to Mr.. Gilmore: II think you
