w More conclusive plans to
stop the strike campaign have
been discussed at the top-inside,
the past days, in advance of the
promised Truman wage-price
speech.
A project for a flat 10 per
cent general wage increase
found great favor The very
nature of such a boost however,
raised doubts about the wisdom
of il
The idea is not founded upon
any claim of injustice, of price
level, or TO any particular work
ers in any industry. but upon
the vague politico-economic no
tion that more wages would
furnish more purchasing power.
The sounder advisers around
the President thought the wage
advance policy should be based
on merit instead of a flat gem
eralized figure. The unions
should be required to justify
their claims in each case.
The government decisions
should be geared TO dispense
economic justice, perhaps
through a judicial new labor
board not controlled by either
the unions or industry. rather
than upon the principle of a
union WPA.
MOREOVER, an increase OF
WI any flat figure could not
alone stabilize business or pro-
duction for reconversion.

WASHINGTON = Biggest shake up in the High Command since Gen. Eisenhower's appointment as European Commander is being dis cussed back-stage at the White House. Some of it also is reported to have been studied at. Yalta.
 The shake-up will be aimed at solving two difficult problems CD Cooperation with the Russian Gen. eral Staff, despite the fact that Russia is not in the war against Japan; and @ The tug-of war between Admiral Nimitz and Gen. Macarthur as to who will command the final drive on Tokyo.
 The No. problem, involving Russia. probably will be worked out by setting up a separate branch of the combined chiefs in Europe with Gen. Omar Bradley, Field Marshal Montgomery, and Marshal Zhukov as it's members. They will function in regard to the European war only, will have nothing to do with the war against Japan.
 The No. 2 problem of who will command the knockout blows against Japan has been the subject of considerable Army and Navy wire-pulling Gen. Macarthur and his friends have been conducting a vigorous back-stage campaign for his overall appointment.
 On the other hand, the Navy points out, with considerable truth, that if it were not for the tre- mendous concentration of ships around the Philippines and the skillful operations of Admiral Nimitz, Gen. MacArthur's campaign
