Senate-HOuse Conference Group Packed in Favor Of Labor Draft

The legislative situation in Con- gress on forced labor draft pro- posalS has taken critical and dan gerouS turn.
 The House of Representatives following it's recent anti-labor trend, refused to concur with the voluntary manpower bill adopted by the Senate and sent the measure to conference.
 The legislation now rests with the conference committees appointed by the House and the Senate and the membership of these committees appears to be packed with propon- ents of forced labor schemes.
 During the next week or two the conference committees will try to work out compromise between the dangerous May-Bailey Bill adopted by the House and the more ac- ceptable O'Mahorey-Kilgore Bill passed by the Senate.
 After their first meeting, confer ees predicted eventual agreement on bill for limited" national ser vice which will provide jail penal ties for workers who refuse to take war jobs to which they are as- signed.
 The American Federation of La- Dor has fought bitterly since the be- ginning of the year against any such compulsory legislation. Lined up against labor has been a powerful coalition of Administration forces, the War and Navy Departments and the old guard reactionaries in Con- gress
 While the AFL triumphed in the Senate. after an initial setback in the House. it was pointed out that it is extremely more difficult to de- feat a conference report in either branch of Congress than bill com ing up for original consideration.
 That is why legislative experts consider the present situation more dangerous to labor than at any time since the President first recom- mended labor draft legislation to Congress.
 Even the fact that the armed for ces of the United Nations have been making such tremendous progress against Germany that collapse of the NaziS by summer is being freely predicted, is not likely to halt adop- tion of some form of labor draft.
 Senator Thomas of Utah, chair man of the Military Affairs Com mittee, stated that the Senate con- ferees had suggested that the House managers agree to provision under which the WING would be author ized to investigate the utilization of labor by the War and Navy Depart ments and other agencies of the Government.
 ''In view of the findings in in- vestigations by the Byrd Economy Committee and the Mead Commit tee Investigating the War Program. !" Senator Thomas declared, T don't think anyone is disposed to disagree to that"
 He reported the beginnings of compromise.

Jap Sub Commander
May Not Testify at

BY ROBERT BRUSKIN.

submarine which allegedly tor
pedoed the cruiser Indianapolis may
not testify against Capt. Charles

at ALL" Capt. Thomas J. Ryan, jr,
judge advocate. said today.
Comdr. Ike Hashimoto was ques-
toned for four hours through an
interpreter yesterday. and the in
terrogation viii continue to deter
mine how much he knows about
the sinking of the 10,000-ton cruiser
last July 80 in the Philippine Sea.
Capt. Ryan said he had no chance
to determine to his own satisfac-
ton whether Hashimoto was COM
petent and credible, and added that
newsmen would be advised If and
when he will be used as a witness"
Precedent Set Years Ago.
Capt. Ryan said he, believed a
precedent for calling a former
enemy to testify against an Amer
lean naval officer was established
in the Revolutionary War or the
War of 1872, when British officer
testified against an American naval
officer.
Capt. Ryan declared it would be
the first time in modern history
where the situation is repeated if
Comdr. Hashimoto faces the sur
vivors of the cruiser he allegedly
sank, causing the death of $50
crewmen.
Capt. McVay is charged with
negligence and inef1ciency in the
loss of his ship. He is being tried
at the Washington Navy Yard.

Comdr. Hashimoto is being held
at the Navy Yard. Although he Is
not a prisoner of war, his status
is essentially the same" during his
stay in the United States. -..
Comdr. Glenn F. Degrave, who left
the Indianapolis for a new assign
ment IL days before she was sunk,
testified he knew of standing orders
aboard ship that the captain was
to be informed if there were changes
of visibility and weather.
He declared also that orders had
been issued requiring all officers and
enlisted men to wear their life belts
and jackets at all times.
Marine Tells Of Disaster
Pfc. Giles G. Mccoy, st. Louis, a

In the water, he found only three
fourths of group of $50 men with
life jackets. Three were no foater

ming, Pvt. Mccoy said he found q
group Of four life RATS with Is men
aboard.
He heard no orders to abandon

there was considerable screaming
going on" and he may have missed
hearing such an order. Pvt. Mccoy
declared that he could see his COM
panions on the deck and in the
water with good visibility imme-
diately after the explosion.

Nationwide Drive
On Juvenile Crime
Us Urged by Truman
BY the Associated Press.

MIAMI BEACH, Fla, Dec. H.
President Truman, in q personal
message. today called on the Ma
tons police officials to organize q
country wide crime prevention
drive aimed at the roots OF Juvenile
delinquency.
Mr.. Truman said in the message
read to more than TOO delegates to
the convention OF the International
Association Of Chiefs OF Police, that
he looked on the rise in juvenile
delinquency as perhaps the most
alarming problem faced by law en-
forcement officers.
Americans cannot afford to re.
gard that problem passively or te
postpone the action necessary to Its
solution" the President said.
II am convinced that the active
cooperation Of all welfare, religious
and social agencies, civic leaders
businessmen and citizens in a broad
national crime prevention program
directed at the roots of the evil is
the path to be followed-and with
out delay"
National Council Proposed.
Mr.. Humans message was read
by Frank J. Wilson, chief OF the
Secret Service, who Immediately
proposed a national crime preven-
ton and Juvenile delinquency coun-
Gil with the slogan, Keep the good
bov good"
The convention opened yesterday
with J. Edgar Hoover, chief of the
Federal Bureau of Investigation
warning that a major crime wave
that "startles the imagination /.
even now sweeping the country"
Mr.. Hoover said the current crime
wave, spearheaded by an army Of
juvenile delinquents, may be the
vanguard Of an orgy Of gang
sterism, rackets and murder that
marked the 1920s.
He blamed the laxity of parents
as a major factor in contributing
the rising tide of postwar crime
declaring that parental respon-
sibility is no longer in STYLE" with
the result that the delinquent
youngster of the war years is now
graduating into the ranks OF sea-
soned criminals"
Figures Presented.
Mr.. Hoover said the time has
come when parents should be held
responsible mot only to their own
conscience but to society"
He presented figures showing that
juvenile crime had skyrocketed since
1899, last peacetime year. His figures
showed that persons under 81 COM
nit IS per cent OF all murders, and
81 per cent Of the burglaries Thirty
one per cent of those committing
criminal assault are under that age,
and minors make up "a per cent of
the thieves. % per cent Of the
arsonists and 60 per cent Of all car
thieves, he said.
Mr.. Hoover declared arrests of
bobby sox girls under Is jumped
1913 per cent since 1899, while arrests
for boys in the same age group In
creased 48 per cent for homicide
70 per cent for criminal assault
"a per cent for assault, IS per cent
for auto thefts and 10l per cent fol
drunkenness and drunken driving.
