Shortage Of Mems Clothing
Called 'ScondoI BY Retailers

OPA and the civilian Production
Administration have acknowledged
q shortage Of mems clothing. but
have predicted 1t would be relieved
early next year.
The agencies have said that even
though military requirements have
been cut drastically, It viii take some
time to build up retailers inventories
OF civilian clothing.
The shortage has been aggravated,
according to the agencies, because
many returning veterans need COM
pletely new wardrobes.
CPA has asked retailers to give
veterans preference in sales Of
clothes.
CPA Administrator John d. Small
said at news conference yesterday
he believes the Governments low
cost clothing program is turning out

that not more than one or two ships

in the view of great cost Of these
bombs and the small amount of
material available in the world for

He told the committee he re-
garded as "fallacious" suggestions
that new weapons have made the
feet or large numbers Of trained
men unnecessary. Instead, he con-
tended, these new weapons have
made war more complicated, more
expensive and may require us
eventually to build stronger ships

Truman Is Attacked
By Texas Bapiisfs for
Attitude on DRINKING
~ tho Associated Press.

~ inc Associated Press.
FORT WORTH, Tex, Nov. TO-
The Baptist General Convention OF
Texas yesterday leveled criticism at
President Truman for what It as
serted was his attitude toward
gambling and drinking.
The convention, on motion Of the
Rev. L. L. Rolo1, Corpus Christi,
instructed trustees OF all Texas
Baptist colleges and universities not
to confer an honorary degree on
persons holding ITO such q position. -
The resolution
Because Of the reported attitude
Of the President Of the United
States as Baptist toward gambling
and drinking and because Of the In
vitation of Baylor University to
confer upon him the high recoeni-
ton Of q honorary degree, I move
that we instruct the trustees Of all
our colleges and universities not to
confer any honorary degree on those
holding to such position"
May Not Affect Offer.
The resolution was adopted with
out opposition.
An oficial OF the convention, how
ever. expressed belief that the res
olution would not affect Baylor Uni
versity's offer of an honorary degree
to President Truman.
At Waco. Pat NJ. Nef, president
Of Baylor, replied, mo comment"
when told of the resolution.
mo Baptist school should confer
. degree on man who likes his
poker and drinks his bourbon" the
Rev. w. L. Shuttleworth, Houston,
chairman Of the Civic Righteousness
Committee, said on the convention
floor.
'Tknow that we all agree that no
mAn-even the President Of the
United States-could be q good Bap-
fist and drink his liquor" the Rev.
Shuttleworth added.
The convention was the 60th an
nual meeting, attended by about
$500.
In Washington there was no i'm
mediate comment from the White
House.
Baylor Chairman Retorts.
At Waco, Tex, DR.. j. T. Harring-
ton, chairman Of Baylor trustees,
commented: IT think the action of
the general convention is an in
fringement by a general body on the
inherent personal rights Of Baptists
as individuals and on the rights of
Baptist institutions.
Each Baptist church and insti-
tuition is a law unto itself. The
institutions are governed by the
trustees and the general conven-
ton has no right to instruct the
trustees as to what they should do.
The convention can change the
trustees but not instruct them what
to do"
The Rev. Forrest Feezor, pastor
Of the Broadway Baptist Church Of
Fort Worth and newly elected first
vice president Of the convention,
said the resolution was acted on
quickly.
Ask Taylor's Recall.
Il believe that most BaptiSts
would agree with the intent of the
resolution in general" he said,
but I believe that If they had
thought 1t was aimed at the Presi-
dent with the idea Of turning aside
the degree to be awarded him, they
would not have acted in such
haste"
The convention petitioned Presi.
dent Truman to recall Myron G.
Taylor as the Presidents personal
representative to the Vatican, de-
claring that Mr.. Taylor's retention
is unconstitutional and complexities
