Australian Envoy Ask!
Reciprocal Rights on
Pacific Naval Bases
By the Associoted Press

Norman J. o. Maxim, first Austria
liam Ambassador to the United
States, said yesterday he thought
the question of postwar Pacific ma
val bases would be settled by con-
ference between the nations most
concerned"
At his first news conference since
his arrival here, the new envoy
also said Australia would seek to
provide homes for European dis
placed persons, especially the child
migrant who can grow up with us
and become part of the nation"
Mr.. Maxim said settlement of the
Pacific base question should contain
reciprocal rights provisions.
Pacific Base Debated.
Apparently indicating that his
government did not favor the Amer
ican request for a naval base on
Manus Island, north of Australia
Mr.. Maxim said, Naval bases in
the Pacific are matter of general
defense plans there of the nations
concerned"
He said conversations between the
Australian and United States Gov
ernments concerning Manus Island
are continuing, but added he
thought it likely that "the nations
equally interested will hold a con-
ference in Canberra seeking settle
ment of Pacific questions"
Australia, New Zealand, Great
Britain, the United States and Can
ada, he said, were the nations likely
to participate in such a conference
He gave no estimate of when it
might be held.
Increased Trade Sought.
The diplomat said one of the prin-
cipal interests of his government
and people is increased foreign
trade, that we may maintain our
improved standard of living"
He said Australia wanted more
reciprocal trade, adding, land in
our approach to the discussions on
the expansion of world trade and
employment, Australia asks for full
Irecompense for any concessions by
way of reductions of tariff and en-
pire preferences she is asked to
give"
Mr.. Maxim said British and
American private interests had in
vested $27 100000 in Australia since
the war land we hope there will be
more"

u. 5. 10 Issue Scrip
As New Reich Money
To Stop Black Market
BY the Associated Press

FRANKFURT, Sept. 14.-In a
move to smash black marketing by
j American soldiers, the United States
Army has announced it will issue
scrip next Tuesday in lieu of Allied
marks as the legal tender in all post
exchanges and other military estab-
lishments in the American zone OF
Germany.
| Unofficial reports said millions of
dollars obtained through black
market operations have been sent
back to the United States by Amer
ican soldiers and civilians in the
past 18 months. Recently, under a
strict currency control system, the
flow of illicit dollars to the United
States has been greatly retarded, but
under the scrip system, it is expected
that even that leak will be plugged
(Acting simultaneously in
Rome to curb military black
marketing, United States Army
authorities declared a 72-hour
moratorium on virtually all SOL
dier's financial transactions.
(Under the moratorium all
military personnel will surrender
local currency shown in their
currency control pass books for
new certificates to be issued in
denominations of 5, 10, Is and
so cents and 81. S5 and $10)
The substitution of scrip for
Allied marks will involve the re-
demption of an estimated $4,000, 900
in Allied marks now believed to be
credited as dollar backed currency
in the control books of more than
100000 American and Allied person.
mel in the United States zone.
Marks Useless to Allies.
BY making it impossible to con-
vert marks into dollars, or make
purchases in military establish
ments, Army officials believed that
the incentive would be removed
for sales of cigarettes and other
United States supplies in the black
market. Under the scrip system,
marks will be useless to Allied per-
sonnel, except to make purchases
~ Viii oC1h hldll SlbdidIlS VIII nave
virtually nothing to sell. From now
until Tuesday the marks will be
good only for the purchase of meals.
The new scrip has been officially
named military payment certifi-
Gates" and all Allied marks now in
the possession of American and
Allied personnel in the United
States zone will be redeemed in the
new tender.
However, the marks which such
persons hold in excess of the credits
in their control books, or which they
acquire later never can be converted
into dollars, nor can they be used
in purchasing meals, clothing and
other supplies from Army agencies.
Thus. Army officials hoped, would
end the weirdest, most profitable
joyride any CT ever hoped to find.
But most of the GIs have proved
their ingenuity too often to permit
of much official smugness.
I'm curious to see how they beat
this one," unused one fiscal expert.

(Continued from Page One) to Congress from Connecticut is difficult to assess at this writing. It is, however, agreed by both sides that the chances of Rep. Kopple- man in the first district and those of Chase Going Woodhouse in the second district are the brightest for the Democrats. It should be noted that both these representa- tives are outstanding New Deal supporters.
 Many politicos are stopping these days at Sam Gordon's Tavern in Windham, the genial Sam not only dispences fine beverages, but also a philosophy which is always in- teresting and generally sound
 The vote which Socialist Jasper McLevy, candidate for governor, may receive is worrying the man. agers of both parties.
 MT. McLevy is expected to in- crease his vote this year, and par ticularly in the Waterbury area, due to the fact that many adher- ents of Joseph E. Talbot, who was denied the nomination for gover- nor at the Republican State Con- vention, are expected to vote for McLevy. If this should happen, the Democrats stand to gain.
