DE GAULkE
 TO RESIGN
 HIS OFFICE
General Is Unable 10 Form Coalition Cabinet-Com-
 munists Demands

PARIS, Nov. 16-Gen. de Gaulle's office announced today that the General had decided to resign as Interim President of France be- cause of his inability to com pose differences with the Com munist Party and form a coalition government.
 De Gaulles decision grew out of a demand of the Communist Party, most important single political group in the newly elected con- stituent assembly, for key cabinet posts in the proposed three-party coalition government.
 De Gaulle was elected unani- mously by the constituent assembly Tuesday to serve as President dur ing the creation of the Fourth Re- public. The General then shed his uniform for civilian clothing
 The deadlock developed when the Communists in two letters to de Gaulle said their price of partici- patton in the government coalition alongside the Socialists and Popular Republican movement was one of the three big ministries foreign affairs, interior or war.
 The first letter said de Gaulle's reasons for refusing to grant them one of these posts "cast doubt on the national character of our party and it's policy"

Conservative Says AppIi- cation Should Be Made
 as 40th State

LONDON, Nov 16-Conservative Robert Boothby urged the Govern ments Commons today to cut the im- port of American films, asserting that Great Britain is suffering complete economic domination by the United States"
 If the government has decided to bcrrow a large sum at considerable rate of interest from the United States" Boothhy said, and to go back to the gold standard and multi lateral free trade without discrim- ination as to price, then suppose that the film industry will have to be included in the sell out of Great Britain
 Bcothby said Great Britain was spending $80,00O,0O0 year on Amer ican movies and declared the coun- try, in it's present financial position, could not afford to go on doing this indefinitely"
 He said if the current talks in Washington produce the s4000, ,000,- coo to $5.000, 100000 loan to Great Britain, it would be well advised to make immediate application for en- try as the 18th state in the U.S.A and move ourselves over to Wash ington in order to get some of the advantages. instead of only the dis advantages of complete economic domination by the United States"

HITLER, EVA HAD
 BABY; TREASURY
 OF WOMAN FOUND

FRANKFURT. Nov. i6-Pictures of Eva Braun, Hitler and a baby girl identified only as "Uschi," dis covered in an album tucked away with Eva's fabulous personal treas ure, posed an interesting mystery today for American intelligence of- ficers. who hinted that the fll story of the treasure was yet to be told.
 The treasure chest was found yesterday.
 The announcement called Eva Hitler's supposed wife. There had been reports that the couple had at least one child, although British intelligence investigators had con- cluded that Hitler and Eva were married only the day before they were believed to have died together in the chancellory of burning Berlin.
 Besides thousands of dollars in American bills, valuable jewelry and a hoard of extremely valuable silver, there was diary, evidently Evas, which referred frequently to her "undying love" for Hitler.
 Her pictures showed herself, Hitler and the blonde baby girl in many poses.
 Also in the find was the uniform Hitler wore on July 20, 1944, when an attempt was made on his life. It was blood-stained and tattered.

 In Java Secior
By LEIF ERICKSON

BATAVIA, Nov. 16-Hubertus J. van Nook, acting Governor General of The Netherlands East Indies, called upon the new Indonesian Nationalist cabinet to meet him in an informal discussion at the earli- est possible moment, in an effort to save Indonesia from further bloodshed and threatened famine.
 Van Nook made this statement at a press conference at a time when Indonesian resistance was officially reported to be slackening at battered Soerabaja before the assault of tanks, guns and planes of the slowly advancing British Indian troops.
 An official British summary to- day said there was nothing to re- port" on the situation at Soera- baJa. A summary of yesterdays fighting said the resistance of the 15,000 Indonesians in Soerabaja decreased" as the Indian troops expanded the area under their control. Indonesian sniping and sporadic mortar fire continued.
 (The Hilversum radio quoted dispatch of the Dutch news agency Aneta as saying 5000 British-In- dian troops landed on Sumatra without Indonesian opposition and began rounding up Japanese at Padang and Palembang. The dis patch said it is hoped a second Java will be prevented.
 It. Gen. Sir Philip Christison, Allied Commander in the N E. l., called meeting of Indonesian Re- public leaders and Dutch represen- tatives, but it was reported the new Indonesian cabinet members were not yet prepared to talk with the Dutch.

ADVANCE ISANN0UNCED BY GOVERNOR
March 4 Sci as Tentative Date for Convening
 of 30-Day Meet

Just prior to his scheduled de- parture today for the Western Gov ernors Conference at Cheyenne, Wyoming, and the National Capital, Alaskas Governor, Ernest Gruening, gave advance notice of his intention to call an extraordinary session of the Alaska Territorial Legislature, to convene in March, 1946.
 The statement issued by Gov. Gruening reads:
 The Governors office has receiv- ed to date some 50 requests for a special session of the Legislature. These requests come from all parts of the Territory and from most di- verse groups and many individuals. They include City Councils, Cham bers of Commerce, Labor Unions, fraternal organizations. clubs and associations of various kinds.
 Under the circumstances, it seems to me desirable and neoes- sary to call such a session. It may be pointed out that the unexpected ly sudden ending of the war has brought new problems to the fore, many of which deserve consideration by the Legislature prior to the next regular session which will not take place until 1947. Therefore, I will call special session.
 The date of this session is in- fluenced by several considerations. 1n Juneau, the work of various gov- ernment agencies, now installed in the Senate and House Chambers and

The W ashington Merry Go Round
By DREW PEARSON

WESTINGHOUSE is one irn- portant tip-off showing the ad- ministration knew war was coming in the Pacific, but expected it in the Philippines. Admiral Will liam Glassford, commanding U. s. gunboats in the Yangtze Patrol, carefully shepherded his fleet out of Shanghai across tempestuous seas to Manila. They were flat bottomed boats, dangerous in rough, deep-sea weather, but, knowing the Japs were about to strike, he made the emergency trip just before Pearl Harbor. |. At that time everyone expected the Japs to strike the Philippines, the Dutch East Indies or Singapore. One thing Pearl Harbor Congressmen don't want to investigate is why, in view of these expectations, Gen. Macarthur got caught with all his planes on the ground, losing 300 fighters and all his Flying Fort resses. If COP. Congressmen do investigate-which they prop- ably won't-theyl find that the air force officer in command of those planes urged Macarthur to let him take them off Clark Field where the Japs later smashed them

KNEW JAPAN WAS READY
 FOR STRIKE
Intercepted Messages In- di(ated War Cominq
 .-Inquiry Proceeds
By JACK BELL

WASHINGTON, Nov Is A Japanese message to Tokyo, inter- cepted nearly month before Pearl Harbor, described the late President Roosevelt as believing that Japan would be "on the move soon"
 This came to light today as the congressional inquiry into the Pa cific military disaster entered it's second day of public hearings.
 The message, sent by Japanese Ambassador Kichisaburo Nomura on Nov. 10, l94l, quoted "a certain cabinet member as having told Nomura that MT. Roosevelt and the then Secretary of State, Cordell Hull, did not believe the impend- ing peace" conference would alter the tense diplomatic situation.
 The peace conferences were shortly to begin with Nomma and Special Envoy Saburo Kurusu rep resenting the Japanese government.
 Japs Ready To Strike
 In message that was decoded e.ed translated by U. s. Army in- telligence two days after it was sent, Nomura said that on Nov. 9 a cabinet member had talked to him. Without naming hirn, the Japanese Ambassador quoted the cabinet official as follows:
 You are indeed dear friend of mine and I tell this to you alone. The American government is re- ceiving number of reliable reports that Japan will be on the move socn. The American government does not believe that your visit on Monday to the President or the coming of Mir Kurusu will have any effect on the general situa- tion"
 When Nomura protested that neither the Japanese government nor it's people desired a war with the United States, the cabinet member was quoted as replying:
 Notes Made Public
 Well, our boss, the President. believes those reports and so does the Secretary of State"
 The Nomura message, sent after the ambassador had been advised by Tokyo that Nov was the deadline for concluding negotia- tions with the United States, was one of series made public by the congressional investigating ccmmit- tee
 Before a crowd damned into every corner of the committee room, Senator Ferguson -Mich.) drove yesterday at the point that Admiral Harold R. Stark, then Chief of Naval Operations, had ordered Hawaii bound shipping re- routed to the south almost two weeks before the Japanese attack.
 There remained little doubt, after yesterdays presentation of the in- tercepted Japanese messages, that official Washington knew Japan was on the verge of going to war.
 Red Hot Issue
 Republicans brought up a red hot issue at today's Congressional hearing on Pearl Harbor. They de- to know if an American the Boise, had sighted the Jap Carrier fleet on it's may to bomb Pearl Harbor, and they asked if the cruiser had not failed to report the presence of the Jap armada be- cause of orders for radio silence
 The questions were raised by two

JOHN L. LEWIS CRATES

Beetle -browed John L. Lewis de- livered a speech in the secret ses- sions of the Labor Management conference last week which has both labor and industry delegates buzzing.
 Though Lewis is the most feared and hated of all labor leaders, his speech brought cheers from indus try members, frowns from certain labor leaders.
 Its the best management speech on the whole wage-price issue" ap- plauded H. w Stei..l1'aus of Bridgeport Brass, a management delegate
 What the mine union boss de- manded at the closed-door meeting was wage increases, but-and it was very big but-he also demanded price increases for industry This cuts right underneath the whole position of President Truman and many labor leaders, namely that wage increases plus price increases
