Board Holds To
Curry Decision

The City Civil Service Board
refused to change its recommen-
dalton for dismissal of Patrol
man Frank Curry from the Po-
lice Force after a hearing on the
question this morning. Curry re-
quested the hearing after having
been notified of his dismissal, eff
fective November IS for not hav-
ing passed the last police civil
service examination.
City Personnel Director j a C k
Murray said the Board will re-
lease Curry since there are no
more vacancies on the force.
Former Police Chief Louis M.
j. Eisner testified for Curry and
said that he and former City
Manager Dave King had prom
ised Curry that he would not
have to take an examination af-
ter a six months probation
period. Murray said Eisner was
in error in this respect. The for
mer police chief said iafterward
that the force was badly in need
of capable, sober men at the
time and consequently Curry was
hired.
Police Chief Bienvenido Perez
and Lieutenant Ray Atwell also
testified for Curry, both attest
ing to his good character and
conscientiousness. Curry will
have a chance to take another
examination in December.
Members of the board making
the decision were Myrtland
Gates, L. H. Goddard and Mrs.
Isabel Fleming.

SnA Keep Hl6 away.
The President was deeply tan
ned and ROBUST but he seemed
weighed down with cares. He
lacked the laughing carefree, al
most jubilant manner which
marked his appearance when he
arrived here Sunday night for
nearly d week of rest.
Great cares of state faced Mr..
Truman as he winged his way
back to Washington and it was
these problems which no doubt
were reflected in his expression.
He faced the dilemma of forcibly
placing John L. Lewis behind
bars or being accused of softness
if he didn't. How to settle a soft
coal strike of 100000 miners,
backed by the A. F. of L., and
the C.. 1. o. was only one of the
weighty questions preying on his
mind.
mo Comment on Strike"
Press Secretary Charles G..
Ross said that the President had
mo commnet" on demands for a
special session of congress to
consider the coal strike. He said
that Mr.. Truman checked last
night with Secretary of the In
terror J. A. Krug and attorney
General TOM Clark" on the
telephone regarding the latest
developments on the strike.
THE President was delighted
with the trip" Ross said. 1T
has been a wonderful tonic for
him. He es extremely well-re-
Taxed and refreshed and is
most, appreciative of every
thing that has been done for
him here"
Large crowds stood along the
route of the Presidential party.
Fully an hour before the entour-
age left the vacation White
House at the commandment resi-
dence at the Submarine Base,
groups had assembled around the
Southland Street Gate and north
ward.
The President rode on the right
portion of the rear seat of the
bright blue Buick convertible
owned by Albert J. Mills of Key
West, which he has been using
throughout his vacation. Next to
him was Rear Admiral c. w.

Newsman Denies Reds
In Manchuria Showed
Needless Hostility
By WiIIiom McGoffin

Foreign Correspondent OF The Sior and the
Chicago Daily News
CHANGCHUN, Manchuria.- The
Manchurian picture under the Rus
slams certainly is not pretty. But
some correspondents have painted
1t even worse than it is. There is |
no doubt that Mukden's factories
have been stripped and many
buildings damaged by looting mobs.
But Mukden certainly has not been
more thoroughly and efficiently
damaged than Tokyo" as one radio
commentator declared. I know.
I've seen both cities.
I heard many shots fired, espe-
cially after dark in Mukden, but
never once heard bullet whizz by,
so 1 can't honestly say was shot
at, as some correspondents In my
party did. One agency man de-
clared we we're detained in a
guardhouse for an hour here in
Changchun."
Actually, we we're not detained
at all in guardhouse, but invited
to come into the guards lounge
room out of the cold" while the
captain of the guards telephoned
our request for an interview to
Marshal Rodion Y. Malinovsky's
headquarters across the road.
Statement Unconfirmed.
Two agencies quoted Marshal
Malinovsky as saying if any one
tried to stick an interfering hand
into Russo Chinese friendship, "the
Russians would cut off that hand"
Most special correspondents of in
dividual newspapers who heard this
story from the same source as the
agency men were unable to con-
firm it to their satisfaction and
hence did not use it.
A Russian fighter plane made a
pass at our plane as it started out
from here for Peiping, according to
reports of news agency men also in
the plane. I know for a fact, how
ever, that no one in the plane ac-
tually saw the alleged pass made,
nor was aware of anything unto
ward until our plane returned to-
Changchun with engine trouble and
we we're told of the ATTACK" by Chi
neSe sources.

their rooms so we could have some
of the best beds in the hotel. We
were amused at the Russian hotel
keeper, who worried for fear we did
not have enough money to pay our
bills and who collected every couple
of days during our stay-accepting
our Manchurian Chinese money
which he had never seen before
with reluctance.
