Sugar Stamp No. 50
Valid September l

Effective September l, Sugar
Stamp No. SO becomes valid for
five pounds of sugar to cover 9
four months period.
The local rationing board has
had numerous inquiries as to
why Sugar Stamp No. 81 will
not be used. Due to the fact
that 80 many used this stamp last
year in applying for their canning
sugar instead of Spare Stamp
No. 81, it was deemed advisable
to invalidate it for further use.

Palestine
Jewish Issue
SINNERS Anew

WASHINGTON, Oct. 10 Up
The issue Of additional Jewish
immigration TO Arab-dominated
Palestine simmered in Washing
ton again today in the wake of
these rapid y consecutive
events:
/. President Truman disclosed
that British Prime Minister Att
lee considers too high an Ameri-
can proposal that 100000 home
less European Jews be admitted
to Palestine Immediately.
2. Secretary of State Byrnes
asserted the United States would
not support any final decision on
the Palestine matter without
full consultation with both Jews
and Arabs"
3. Byrnes made public a letter
President Roosevelt wrote one
week before his death TO King
Ibn Saud of Saudi Arabia, pro-
missing he would take no action
hostile to the Arab people
4. The Syrian legation issued
2,000-word letter Ibn Saud
wrote to Mr.. Roosevelt March
10, asserting that Allied support
to Zionism would mean fires of
war and bloodshed between
Arabs and Jews.
Disclosure Of the Roosevelt
Ibn Saud exchange confirmed
earlier reports from Cairo.
Mr.. Roosevelt met Ibn Saud
aboard a U S. Warship in the
Suez Canal following the Yalta
Big Three meeting last Febru-
airy. Later Ibn Saud brought
Saudi Arabia into the war on
the Allied side. The exchange of
letters on Palestine followed.
DR.. Nazem Al-Koudsi, Syrian
Minister in Washington, said he
was releasing the letter for Ibn
Saud because Saudi Arabia has
no diplomatic representative in
Washington.
Meanwhile, former Senator
Guy M. Gillette, president of
the American League for a free
Palestine, expressed belief to a
reporter that Byrnes, in referr-
ing to consultation with Arab
and Jewish leaders, meant only
leaders residing in Palestine. In
that case, Gillette said, there
would be no conflict with the
league.

RESTITUTION LIMITED
Flechsig said eight Center

Wright made $50 restitution,
will have to appear at his Of
flee to obtain their refunds and

would also make restitution to
any other families which sub
sequently appear and prove their
claims, Flechsig said the resti-
tuition agreement applied only to
those known at the present time.
Wright was charged only with
one swindle case - although in
court he admitted the others.
The specific warrant charged
that Mrs. Walter Greer. Of 1912
Standard avenue, Center Line,
had given him SITS and photo
of her son, Seabee Walter Greer,

is more fully determined.
According to Roberts recon-
struction of the case. on the basis
of all statements taken, Burch
early yesterday evening called
Walker to his part of the house
and told him he would like him
to quit the premises within two
weeks.
Walker. Roberts said. replied
that he'd leave tomorrow if he
could find other Accommodations,
and would leave in two weeks, if
he found another place to live.
However. Walker pointed out
to Burch witnesses told Roberts,
that it might be more than two
weeks before he could find a
place.
The argument became heated
at this stage, and Walker inject
ed the statement:
THEFT is ALLEGED
Furthermore, no matter when
l leave, now or two weeks from
now, I'm going 10 see you
for the SIS you stole from my
coat"
The dispute between the two
men then centered for several
minutes on the SIS matter. Rob-
erts said, until Burch rushed
to his room, loaded his shotgun
and returned to place it against
Walkers stomach.
Roberts said Walker seized
the barrel of the weapon and
tried TO push il down and away
from his body, and il was at that
time that the gun went off.
Walker continued to hold the
gun after being shot, but Burch
seized it and ran out of the
house, Roberts said.
A short time later Burch ap-
peared at police headquarters
without the gun, and then di-
rected officers to where he had
hidden it in ST. Mary's recrea-
ton stadium.
NO PISTOL FOUND
Burch told Roberts he believed
Walker had pistol in his pocket,
and it was for that reason he
(Burch) had obtained his shot
gun. Both Walker and his wife
denied that he had ever owned a
pistol. and police said thorough
search of the premises failed to
disclose another weapon.

WITNESS TERMED
A WAR DIRECTOR

Robert M. Kermon, counsel for
the United Shipbuilders of America,
an independent union of workers in
the North Carolina Shipbuilding
Co. yesterday brought to light the
fact that Archie Pruitt, ex-yard
supervisor called to the witness
stand by the National Labor Rela-
tons Board, objected to war as
a matter of conscience and had
refused to work on Allied warships
in a Newport News shipyard before
Pearl Harbor.
After William j. Avrutis raised
objection to Mr.. I-ermon's queries
on this subject, the latter told Trial
Examiner J. ]. Fitzpatrick that he
wished to establish likelihood
that Fruits difficulties in the
Wilmington shipyard, ending in his
discharge, might have sprung from
conscience-trouble instead of sup
ervisory objection to his pro-ClO
sympathies. Examiner Fitzpatrick
discouraged further inquiry along
these lines.
Pruitt is one of 10 compliments
whose cases against the shipyard
were lodged by the CIO-Shipyard
Workers Union with the NLRB.
Under cross-examination by Mr.
Kermon, Mr.. Pruitt qualified his
earlier statement that he had as
sisted company employees to solicit
members for the U. S. A., Inc.
by admitting that he had not &C
tually seen them so doing, although
he had given two of them permis-
sion to go below in a ship he was
helping to build. He further con-
coded that neither had he actually
examined membership cards which
he stated earlier had been distri-
buted in his sight to Negro work
ers.

defendant is alleged to have struck
a Greensboro soldier, Swanson Mel.
son, with beer bottle, was tried
before Judge W. H. S. Burgwvn
as yesterdays session of Superior
Court closed.
Six months after the fight at
Peacock Alley in which the prose.
cution charges the blow was
struck, Nelson suffered stroke
which left him partially paralyz.
ed. Army doctors statements en-
tered in evidence indicate that the
alleged blow might have initiated
the ailment, but need not nave
done SO.
Defense efforts yesterday were
directed at trying to show that the
alteration was not begun by the
defendant and that his use of a bot
tie has not been adequately at
tested. No charge was. laid against
Wheeler at the time the fight was
to have taken place. Pros
ecution was commenced after
Nelson had been given a disabili-
ty discharge from the Army at
Lawson General Hospital, Atlanta,
Ga, late last year.

automobile. a jury panel returned
