RADIO PROBLEMS AT FRISCO

Painstaking, grey-haired Michael McDermott has handled a score of important diplomatic confer ences But the San Francisco par ley probably has given him more grey hairs than any other.
 One contributor was mild-man- ner Judge Roy Hofhemz, former municipal court judge of Houston, Texas, the first man to buck Jesse Jones, radio monopoly in Houston. At San Francisco, Hofheinz carried small wire recorder, an instru- ment about the size of a portable typewriter which records conyer- sations.
 Much to the annoyance of the efficient M c Dermott Hofhein2 brought his recorder to press con- ferences and made a record of everything diplomats had to say Because of -the-record state ments made by U. s. diplomats McDermott was afraid Hofheinz might broadcast some of his record ings, thus revealing secrets to the public
 So every time McDermott spotted

 The aim of the SWPC is to serve inter mediarys between the funds of the Reconstruction Finance Corporation and non-ajor enterprises which might otherwise into snags in attempting to hurdle REC red tape. In addition, the SWPC has at its disposal industrial experts to assist in ironing out "bugs" that might otherwise thwart the aims of prospective operators.
 In addition to the pending visit the SWPC is to open Alaska office to work in cooperation with the Alaska Development Board

MERRY-GO-ROUND

Senator Carl Hatch of New Mex ico has been sitting on the Anti Poll Tax Bill until the San Fran cisco United Nations Charter is out of the way He does not want a poll-tax filibuster to upset rat ification of the Charter =. Forth right Fred Vinson, the War Mob ilizer, is going to be put on the spot soon by the Surplus War Property Board. It is about to hatch ruling whereby $11 1000, 0,000,- 900 of Government owned war plants and machinery would be sold merely on the basis of price, not on the basis of where they could stimulate business and con- petition .. Y. If the Surplus Board has it's way, war plants, machinery
 etc, will go to the DuPonts, Gen. eral Motors, Ford, and others with the most cash to buy them
 Despite Roosevelt's policy of aiding small business, war orders were concentrated in fewer companies than ever before. Six companies got about 50 per cent of all the war business, and 100 firms got approximately 90 per cent Y. Un- sung heroes of the ajrplane carrier Franklin's rescue were Capt. John Gingrich, skipper of the cruiser Pittsburgh, and his executive of

BOOST IN COFFEE PRICES?

A debate has been raging inside the Government over the price of coffee, which this time may be boosted
 Chief problem is that Brazil, our biggest coffee shipper and our best friend in Latin America, is finding it so uneconomical to grow coffee that she is turning to cotton. In that case she would be our chief competitor instead of our chief customer
 Labor costs in Brazil have risen to such an extent that Brazilian coffee growers can't produce at the OPA ceiling price which averages around 13 cents a pound. They want the price boosted to an aver age of Is cents pound. This would increase the cost of a cup of coffee one-eighth of cent.
 The State Department favors such a price rise. The OPA, anx- iouS to hold the line, is opposed

Hofheinz at a press conference, he made a beeline for the ex-judge of Houston. Finally, it was agreed that Hofheinz could record any press conference if the individual being interviewed agreed. McDer- mott did not expect any such per- mission to be given.
 So in the middle of one momen- tous press conference staged by Soviet Foreign Commissar Molo- toy, McDermott saw Judge Hof- heinz operating his recorder. Every word the Soviet Commissar said was being taken down on wire for the people of Houston to hear Alarmed, McDermott ordered the Texan to leave the room. Hof- heinz, however, meekly conducted McDermott to one of Molotov's aides, who verified the fact that the Soviet Commissar had given his permission for the press con- ference to be recorded.
 Furthermore, Molotov was so in- trigued with the recorder that he ordered one for himself.
 NOTE-Before Hofheinz depart ed from San Francisco, several hundred of the machines had been ordered by foreign governments.

ficer, Ed Rivers. Capt. Leslie Gehres of the Franklin expressed astonishment that the Pittsburgh kept it's towline on the burning airplane carrier with Jap suiciders hitting at both The answer is that for over 37 hours, Cling rich remained on the bridge, with Rivers assigned to- the fantail to watch the towline. Neither had a moments sleep during those 37 hours. Their only thought was to retrieve the crippled ship from Jap waters When the final story of the Franklin is told-if it is it will reveal some peculiar circum- stances by which a Jap bomber was able to catch the Franklin by surprise, with airplanes on deck refueling. At such critical mo- ments when a carrier is about to launch planes, her own air protec- tion is supposed to be more alert than ever. The Jap plane which wounded the Franklin was not a
 suicider, but a regular bomber which carefully placed two bombs where they would do greatest dam age.

MONDAY. JULY 2

Conflicting planetary influences are active this day which may be puzzling and confusing to planners of postwar business.
 HEART AND HOME
 Women should be cautious in mak- ing decisions under this configura- tion. They are warned against sum- mer flirtations which may be un- lucky this year. The stars indicate that returning Servicemen will keen ly appreciate the American type of college graduate.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS
 Despite predictions of possible period of business depression the stars seem to indicate at least five years of continued prosperity. Con- structive forces will dominate here as wei! as in Europe.
 NATIONAL ISSUES
 Because of widespread shifting of population, housing problems will continue to cause difficulties in many sections. The seers forecast for the Pacific Coast an6 certain southern states great permanent increase in new residents.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS
 Millions of European war victims will benefit from American sciences as well as American foods. Oul great contributions will include many medical discoveries as well as inventions not hitherto exploited because of war restrictions. Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of year of upheavals and readjustments that should bt advantageous.
 Children born on this day will bt highstrung, ambitions and extrem- ely individual. They should be carefully trained and wisely guid. ed.

American Schering Corporation of Bloomfield, N. J. In this case the proposition was turned down.
 The minutes of the DuPont Com pany's Executive Committee for Feb. 9, 1940 tafter the war had broken out in Germany contained this notation:
 "The DuPont Company informed I. G. q. G. Farbenindustrie, the great German carteb that they in- tended to use their good offices after the war to have the I. G. participation restored
 There IS no indication that Du- Pont has taken any step to carry out this goal since the war with Germany ended. But the above illustrates point Of view which prevailed among several business groups before the war and appar- ently has still not been abandoned by all of them

HOROSCOPE "The stars incline
 bat do not compel"
SUNDAY. JULY l

Benefic aspects dominate today which should bring news that causes rejoicing.
 HEART AND HOME
 Many families that have welcom- ed returning Servicemen and women will focus attention upon vacations in celebration of release from agon- izing worry and suspense. The seers warn against indulgence in costly re- creations.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS
 Banking matters will be of inter- national concern. There is por- tent of complex financial ties diffi- cult to untangle, owing to hidden Axis transactions relating to war costs.
 NATIONAL ISSUES
 Tine trend to physical comfort and self indulgence will be strong as the summer advances. Spiritual awak- enings due to war experiences will be forgotten by many. The seers re- mind the world that lasting peace depends upon the higher attributes of humanity.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS
 The stars presage harmony and understanding in the family of na- tions, with slight interruptions. Broad education that explains diff ferences in races, customs and tradi- tions will accomplish wonders, it is prophesied.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of year of great &C., tivity. Foreign contracts will be lucky for many.
 Children born on this day probab- ly will be talented, yet practical. They should be trained to be consis- tent and unselfiSh.

ANNIVERSARY OF WARNING

Nine years ago today Emperor Halle Selassie placed before the League of Nations the case of Ethiopia which had just been invaded by Mussolini.
 He warned the great powers "of the doom that awaits Europe it should bow before the accomplish ed fact of aggression.
 But Europe did bow Today Selassie is back on his throne and Mussolin is dead-but IA nations in Europe became victims of the Axis.
 Next time if the great nations of the world are wise they will listen to the voice of victims of aggres sion and again attempt appeasement

KING LEOPOLD WANTS LIFT

Allied diplomats aren't talking about it, but King Leopold of the Belgians has been angling desper- ately for British and American help in returning from Salzburg. Aus tria. to Brussels. He has especially asked that one of the Allies fur nish him an airplane
 This put the British in a hot position. Once before they did not hesitate about interfering in Bell gian politics, even surrounded the Belgian Parliament with tanks in order to influence an important vote. But this time, faced with the threat of a general strike if Leopold returned, the British pass ed the buck.
 They told the King Of the Bel gians that all airplanes are under SHAEF Supreme Headquarters Allied Expeditionary Force which of course is commanded by General Eisenhower. However, the British and American commanders under Eisenhower Che has been in the U. s. Al then got together back stage and worked out a joint plan
