Harold Ronk Gives
Enjoyable Recital
At Phillips Gallery
By Elena de Soyn

The song recital by Harold Ronk
baritone soloist of the Covenant
First Presbyterian Church, drew an
interested audience to the Phillips
Gallery last night. Collaborating
with the singer at the piano was
Theodore Schaefer, who played with
his usual authority and finish.
An interesting variety Of songs,
touched mostly on those by Eng
lish and American composers such
as Robin Milford, Benjamin Britten

trasted with Erich VOLTS, Richard
Strauss and Dvorak's lieder.
Mr.. Ronk displayed a flexible

alike "Von Herr zu Herr" and the
dreamy "Nimm Mich und meine
Rosen" in the opening group were
given forth with an appealing SIM
plicity of style and musical quality.
While Strauss "Heimliche Auffor-
derung" requires more vibrancy and
greater brilliancy of delivery than
Mr.. sRonk's type of voice permits,
the ease and fuency Of his tones
made it enjoyable.

Striking Power Union
Faces Fight for Life
Before NLRB Today
BY the Associated Press

PITTSBURGH, Oct. 10.-The In
dependent Association of Employees
OF the Duquesne Light Co. on strike
III days In an effort to win 20
per cent wage rise and other bene-
fits, faced a fight for life today
before the National Labor Rela-
tions Board.
Frank N. Keller, regional NLRB
director, scheduled the hearing after
the AFL-United Mine Workers Dis
trict so filed petition demanding
an election to determine the bar
gaining agent for the company's
$500 workers.
The effect Of an election. In the
event one Is ordered by NLRB, was
expected to have little direct effect
on the present wage dispute since
lit may be weeks before actual vot-
ing would begin.
Petition Covers All Employees.
The petition, which originally
sought an election among only 700
production and maintenance work
ers, has been amended to cover all
employees of Duquesne and its affili-
ates, including not only the 5000
independent union members but
also 800 who do not belong to any
recognized union.
George L. Mueller, president OF
the independent union, said his
group would intervene in the hear
ing to have its name placed on the
ballots and similar announcement
came from the CIO-Public Utility
Workers Union and the AFL-In-
ternational Brotherhood of Electrical
Workers.
Independent union officials said
their unit also would attempt to
prove to NLRB that no bargaining

ployes already are adequately rep
resented.

If President Truman really meant
what he said a week ago about bal
ancing the budget this fiscal year
he hasn't let his closest associates in
on how he figures to do it. .
That is clear today from state
ments by Secretary Of the Treasury
Snyder that:
!. With more than three months
gone on the fiscal year, the Govern
ment still appears headed for a
deficit of $1,000, ,0OO,0O0 when next
June 30 arrives.
2. II don't see any possibility of
any general tax reduction" because
high level taxes-now at the record
peacetime peak of $39, 500 .0O0, 900 a
year-are necessary to get better
control of the ($263, ,690, 900 ,000)
debt"

who spoke anonymously, saw the
budget outlook differently from the
way the President did at his news

Rome Police, Troops
Guard Cabinet Session
Against Fresh Rioting
BY the Assoeiotsd Press

ROME, Oct. 10.-Strong rein
forcements of steel-helmeted
Italian troops and police, alert
to prevent a repetition of yes
terday's bloody rioting, guarded
all approaches to the Viminale
Palace today as the Italian cabi-
net met in an attempt to end
a threatening labor crisis.
During the night barbed wire
was strung across all streets lead
ing to the palace and dawn found
tanks and mounted policemen posted
at strategic points.
Is Arrests Reported.
A government communique, mean
while, announced that two persons
had been killed and 141 injured
in yesterdays riots, during which
a crowd of 10000 to 10000 persons
battled police and troops for three
and one-half hours outside the vi
minale. Eighteen arrests were re-
ported.
Another announcement said the
government was planning to absorb
workers whose dismissal from pub
tic works project in Rome appar-
emily touched off the rioting.
The Republican press accused
monarchists and followers of Mus
solini of provoking the disorders
and Premier Alcide de Gasperi told
news conference that political
forces are attempting to exploit diff
ficulties which any Italian govern
ment would have to cope with to-
day."
Workers Mass In City.
Before Mr.. de Gasperi's press
conference the opposition press in
banner headlines announced that
workers were massing throughout
the city and asked, Who gave the
order to shoot?"
During the height of yesterdays
riots scores of demonstrators in
vaded the Viminale Palace and got
as far as Mr.. de Gasperi's Office,
furniture and windows
as they went. The Premier arrived
from Palermo as the last of the
rioters were being removed from in
front of the bullet-scarred palace.
do demonstrators actually be-
lieve that by occupying the Vimi-
male they can solve Italy's prob
lems?" the Premier remarked.

SNYDER Predicts Another Deficit,
Differs With 7rumun on BUDGET

ury chief carefully avoided saying
he disagreed with Mr.. Truman.
! At his own meeting with reporters
| yesterday, Mr.. Snyder's only venture
at interpreting the Presidents re-
mark was an assertion that Il think
the President meant he is continu-
ing every effort to balance the
budget" and to "curtail expenditures
so as to come out according to the
(previous) estimates
Mr.. Truman had said he not only
hoped to balance the budget this
fiscal year, but he would do so; that
he had predicted on August 2 q
deficit of 81, 900, 900 900, but his econ
omy efforts would bring a saw
ing of $4,000 ,000, 900.
From the remarks of Mr.. Snyder
and other officials, possible explana-
tions shaped us as:
l. The President, without adyis-
ing his financial advisers, has flg-
ured some way to effect that new
saving of 0,000, 900.
2. The President was counting
twice q 81, 2,lOO,UOO,UOO saving he nau
already counted on when he pre-
dicted in August a $1,000, ,000, 900
deficit.
3. The President was thinking
about a surplus in cash transactions
rather than on the budget books
when the year ends.
Mr.. Snyder himself noted that the
August estimate of 81 800, 600 900
deficit was accompanied by presi-
Dental estimate that so far as
cash transactions" are concerned,
there will be surplus of $1,000,
900 900.
On the budget books such items
as social security and CT terminal
leave pay will be charged with "ex-
penditures" this year while actually
mo cash transfers will be made for
some years to come.
At any event. Mr.. Truman had
another date with newsmen today
at / pm, and the question seemed
sire to come up again.

Shipping Strike Talks

Insist on Demands
By the Associated Press

The all-coast shipping strike
bounded back into the Maritime

for either ID a national union

sailing out of all ports or 90 COM
mitment from the Maritime Com
mission that it will impose East

commission once before made such

Since the sister union in the 10
day-old strike, the AFL Masters

doned hope for a national agree
ment, the prospects appeared dim
for the engineers.
That left the Labor Department
only one alternative when the nego-

There was one American novel

Dutch to translate and print during
the occupation period. That was
Sinclair Lewis Rabbit" published
In the 192os. which portrayed the
American businessman in anything
but complimentary fashion.
This was brought to light yester-
day afternoon as the Library of
Congress opened an exhibition of
Dutch literature and art produced
under the noses of the unsuspecting
Germans during the occupation.
Sponsored by the Netherlands EN-
bassy here. the exhibit will run
through September 9.

"The Germans figured that the
things Lewis said about Babbitt
and other American businessmen
were so uncomplimentary as to help
their cause" said DR.. Leo Schlich-
ting, former editor of the Amster-
dam de Tie and at present deputy
director of the Netherlands Infor-
nation Bureau in New York. DR..
Schlichting, who was in Holland
during the occupation, revealed
however, that the Dutch figured
other American novels would be
more helpful to their cause, and
more than 1000 copies of John
Steinbeck's "The Moon Is Down." a
novel Of occupation forces in Nor

which refused to be conquered by
the German hordes. DR.. Schlichting
declared.
Scores Paid With Lives.
That the writer's, artists and
printers dared death is attested to
by the grim fact that more than 100
of them paid with their lives when
discovered by the Germans.
Printing the books and pamphlets
was usually done at night in shops
used during the day by the Ger
mans The necessary paper and
metal were sometimes brought in by
women pushing babies in parambu-
lators. The paper and metals were
hidden in an inner space of the
harmless looking buggies.
Political pamphlets and papers
published by the Dutch underground
during the occupation are also on
display at the library in another
section.
