SAN FRANCISCO, May H.
Completion of a new peace
league charter now appears
probable in about three weeks
but in the background of the
United Nations Conference criti-
cal big-power problems are piling
up for the months ahead.

Gates that the plan for an all

Gil and a general assembly limites

Series of Proposals Rejected.
This was borne out late last night
by the action of the Conference
Committee studying assembly duties
in voting down a whole series oil
small nation proposals for giving
the assembly some control over
council actions.
One result of the pressure fol
speed may be for the other big ma

full agreement with Russia when
ever Moscow responds slowly to
Soviet delegation requests for in
structions.
That situation, in fact, already is
coming to head over the United
States proposal that the new charter
should allow for regional defense
systems to protect nations which the
world security system may fail to
protect against attack.
Ambassador Andrei Gromyko,
chief Soviet delegate, wired the pro-
posal to Moscow for instructions
Saturday. Yesterday he told Secre-
tary Of State Stettinius and other
Big Five colleagues he had not yet

gested today to the United States
Government that Yugoslal
troops be allowed to remain ir
their present position in occu-
patton of Austrian Carinthia
but be placed under the COM
mand of Field Marshal Sir Har-
old Alexander.
The compromise suggestion was
in reply to two notes handed te
Tito by United States Ambassador
Richard c. Patterson, restating the
American position that boundaries
should not be changed by force
pending the peace conference The
United States also had asked with
draWal of Yugoslav troops from
Trieste and parts of the former
Italian territory of Venezia Giulia
"a request to which Tito did not
refer.
The Yugoslav foreign Office note
pointed out that YugoSlavia had not
received an answer from the Amer
lean or British governments to
her request April 2 for agreement
to a proposal that Yugoslav troops
occupy part of Austria. One note
said Russia had agreed to the
proposal and that in the absence
of any reply from the Americans
and the British, the Yugoslavs had
gone ahead with the occupation.

said today.

represents 27.5 per cent of the quota
of $48,000,000.
Nationally, the first billion dollars
in the drive is in the vault, accord
ing to Ted r. Gamble, national war

Mr.. Waller urged that volunteer
statesmen in neighborhoods and
Offices visit their list of prospective
buyers Immediately.
TOO much doorbell ringing can
not be done by our volunteers" Mr..

The chairman added that the
drive will not be successful unless
personal selling by workers contin-
ues throughout the seven-week Pc

Meanwhile, sales in theaters are

Committee Rejects
Plan
By One Vote Margin
House Judiciary Group
Votes, 8 to 7, Against
D. c. Representation

BY a margin of one vote the
House Judiciary Committee to-
day refused to approve a favor
able report to the House on the
Sumners-Capper resolution fol-
a constitutional amendment to
enable Congress to grant repre-
sentation in the National Legis-
lature to the people of the Dis
trict.
The action was taken in executive
session, but it was learned a motion
to send the measure to the House
with report favoring adoption was
defeated by an 8-to-7 vote.
| Some months ago the Senate Ju-
dietary Committee announced that
its members were opposed to pass
age of any constitutional amend
ment during the war. Whether
this had anything to do with today S
decision by the House judiciary
group was not known.
| Chairman Summers of the House
| committee said it was his opinion
the failure of his committee to re-
port the bill today "by no means
indicates that the move to grant a
fundamental right to the District
people is licked"
Chairman Summers continued
I'VE will just have to bide our time
and try again. A cause so meri-
torious as this will not die.
1T is my belief that this resolu-
ton is as nearly exempt from just
attack as any that could be drawn
1t is merely an enabling act which,
upon ratification by the States,
would authorize Congress to grant
representation in Congress to the
District people in such number and
with such powers as Congress itself
would determine. 1t would not take
anything away from the exclusive
jurisdiction which Congress now
holds over legislation for the ma
tional capital. 1t, instead, would
add to those powers, by including
in the membership of Congress
some number of qualified and
elected representatives of the Dis
trict people"
Hearings on the resolution were
held early this year before SUBJ
committee of the House Judiciary
Committee, headed by Representa-
tive Celler, Democrat, of New York
Those sessions reached a climax
when the New Yorker announced
majority of the subcommittee had
agreed to make favorable report
to the full committee.
In view of this, the adverse de-
cision by the IS members of the full
committee attending todays ses-
sion came as surprise.
The resolution proposes that the
following be made an amendment
to the Constitution:
The Congress shall have power
to provide that there shall be in
the Congress and among the elec-
tors of President and Vice Presi-
dent, members elected by the people
of the District constituting the seat
of the Government of the United
States in such numbers and with
such powers as the Congress shall
determine. All legislation hereun-
der shall be subject to amendment
and repeal"

| MANILA, May 17.-American
31st Division Doughboys today
drove S miles along Sayre high
way in mountainous North Gen.
tral Mindanao, while another
veteran outfit, the Oath Division
was still locked in close combat
with fanatical japanese trapped
near Davao City.
The push north of captured Mar
amag put the 31st within miles of
the Valencia air fields and SIS miles
from the 40th Infantry Division
The latter is driving south from Del
Monte along graveled Sayre high
way. Between these two forces the
bulk of an estimated $4,000 enemy
troops on this second largest Philip
pine island was preparing for a
last-ditch stand in wild hill country
of Bukidnon province.
Veterans of the 40th Division, who
landed week ago at Macajalar Bay
on the north coast, were battling a
powerful force south of Del Monte,
Gen. Macarthur announced in to-
days communique. They advanced
slightly against strong resistance.
Knives and Fists Used.
| Northwest of Davao, the oath
slowly dug Japs out of entrenched
positions between the Talomo and
Davat Rivers. Deep grass per-
mitted the japanese to steal through
Yank lines and guns often were
abandoned for knives, bayonets and
fists in fierce infighting.
A Marine dive bomber silenced
one of several troublesome japanese
naval guns across Davao Straits
and speedy PIT boats, in a daring
daylight crossing of Davao Gulf
destroyed six 70-foot torpedo boats
and one barge, fired four fuel and
ammunition dumps and knocked
out a pillbox at Pisco Point, jap
anese secret naval base.
| On LuZon guerrilla forces har-
assed Japanese garrison at Tugue-
garao and along highway in
Southern Cagayan Valley, but the
Doughboy drive down the road from
Balete Pass was halted by heavy
rains.

OF each other and compressed q

Dam watershed, source of Manila s

south of Infanta.
Dutch troops landed unopposed
on the southern tip of Tarakan Is
land off the Borneo coast and cap
tured some ammunition dumps. In
land on the oil-rich island, Austria
lians cleaned out strong japanese
position.
Air Units Range Wide.
Medium attack and fighter bomb
ers pounded enemy positions on
North Luzon with $50 tons of bombs
while other air units ranged over
a wide area from Formosa to
French Indo-C China, the Dutch East
Indies and New Guinea.
A Navy Liberator sank a 300O-ton
freighter transport off the Celebes.
Patrols in the Dutch East Indies
sank four freighters and two coastal
vessels and damaged several others.
Long-range partol planes bombed
an airdrome at Canton at night and
sank two coastal vessels near Hong
Kong in a daytime raid. Rail and
highway lines were hit in French
Indo- China.
