tional Committee.
 This in turn touched off bon fire at the feet of party leaders. As state committeeman yelled for Wal lace, Hannegan and Sparkman fin ally appealed to the White House. A quick calculation showed that the states which were yelling loudest for Wallace had the not-to-be- sneezed-at total of over 474 dele gates to the next Democratic Con- vention-almost enough to nomin- ate a candidate for President.
 That was why Truman yielded. That was also why Hannegan and Sparkman both did neat flip-flopS, issuing new statements welcoming Wallace hack as a speaker. Result: Wallace will make ten speeches be- tween Oct. 15 and Nov in Penn- sylvania, Indiana, Ohio, New York, New Jersey and Illinois.
 Wallace will not discuss the peace issue in these speeches But once the electon's over, he's going to work on the foreign policy ques- tion with a vengeance, will write a new book on foreign policy, plans to speak in every one of the 48 states. In the course of this tour, he will break down and analyze Tru- man policy and charge that it con- ilicts with Roosevelt policy. Naturally, Wallace will encounter hundreds of important Democrats many of them delegates to the next Democratic Convention. Should his ideas catch on, there is no question but that he will be a candidate in 1949.
 | Note-Wallace will not try his hand as a radio commentator, nol as a columnist. Though sometimes branded starry dreamer,
 Wallace has plenty of money, is making about $60,000 yearly iron 1 hybrid corn which he developed many years ago.

Secretary Patterson has been urging Winthrop Rockefeller to publish his report on helping GIs who have become veterans. Patterson has passed the report on to General Bradley of the Veterans Administration, and to General Erskine in the Labor Department. Remarked Admiral Jerry Land, former head of the Maritime Commission, apropos of the Henry Kaiser investigation: "The Ameri- can people have short memories. They forget that Kaiser had one of the best shipbuilding records of the war If it hadn't been for those 50 baby flattops he built, I don't know where we'd been."

The Maine Election
Cincinnati Enquirer


 Maine has had its day in the again with it's unreasonable election yielding a result which political experts throughout the nation customarily examine by microscope and slide rule to divine the national trend, if any. As goes Maine .'
 Actually, of course Maine is a very poor political weathervane Except for the fact that it attends to it's electing than six weeks ahead of the rest of the nation, student of political trends would ever bother with the Maine returns Ohio, for instance, is State which has been right" in national cleo tions far oftener than Maine
 The Maine returns not entirely meaningless, of course. The fall that Maine went Democratic it a straw not in the wind, but the hurricane. Normally Republican victories must be weighted to afford reliable gauge of political trend. Thus, this year it estimated that the Republicans would need to poll vote of 65 per cent better to indicate gain in national strength In Maine's voting Repub lcan candidates swept the five major for the sixth consecutive time, with majorities averaging around 65 per cent.
 The vote light, and the electorate seemed apathetc. In that particular, certainly hope it won't be of "As Maine goes" Apathy, what ever party it may favor, is not conducive to good government On the contrary, it is conducive to bad government.

from the packing plants at least until after election day
 However. they will have to sell some time, and the Administration has decided that it can play the same waiting game as Republican cattlemen and farmers.
 When it comes to pork, rather than beef, the situation Is some- what different Hog raisers have found they can't fatten hogs much longer than six months without losing money. A hog increases in weight rapidly up to six months, after which he hits point of diminishing returns. So hog farm CTS won't hold back as long as the cattlemen.
 However, since there is a serious shortage of pork, it will take some time to make up the deficit and the housewife will still have a hard llllit DuS HE ItdCOIl.
 All in all the beef and pork pro pect doesn't look too bright at least until winter. Secretary An der on figures that if cattlemen finally are convinced the Govern ment will not decontrol meat, they will begin shipping shortly after elections. But if they can just hold off until after elections, cattlemer hope they won't have to worry about the Truman Administration price-control policies much longer
 WALLACE'S NEXT MOVE
 Hottest political question around Washington is What will Henry Wallace do now?" The answer is tC be found in a series of backStagt moves occurring immediately aftel he abruptly turned in his resigna tion-on request.
 Though unpublished it was Pres ident Truman himself who sen out word last weekend that Wallace was to make no speeches under tht auspices of the Democratic Nationa Committee. That was why Bol Hannegan, Mayor Ed Kelly of Chi cago, House Majority leader Johl Mccormick, and Democratic Con gressional campaign chairman Johl Sparkman read Wallace out of tn party. Immediately the firework started.
 Democratic bigwigs from at leas ten states bombarded Wallace's of flee with pleas that he prop III their shaky political chances witt personal appearances and speeches In each case, Wallace and his adroi political adviser, Harold Young, re ferred calls to the Democratic Ma

WASHINGTON, May 17-Rus- sia's position in the world food crisis came in for renewed atten- tion today with President Truman's disclosure that he has been in touch with Generalissimo Stalin on the subject.
 The Chief Executive refused to disclose any details, but diplomatic officials said MT. Truman had ap- pealed for Soviet help in supplying food to famine areas. These off cials, who declined to be named, had no word of any reply from Mcscow.
 At another point in his news conference yesterday the President underscored the part the United States is playing in the crisis when he said we are doing more than any other country.

WHITE SHIPS TO BRING WAR DEAD
 HOME THIS YEAR

WASHINGTON. May IT. = The GIs who can't be mustered out will start coming home from over seas this year to a final state wide bivouac.
 They are the dead-men and women whose names on casualty lists went toward paying the battle price of 328,000 lives which World War II cost the United States.
 They'll make their last voyage home in funeral fleets of white ships. marked from bow to stern with the purple band of mourning.
 President Truman gave the off cial signal for the somber move ment when he signed legislation yesterday providing for the final burial of the country's World War II dead. It gives next of kin the choice of having their service dead returned to the United States for final burial in national or private cemeteries, or of having them rest in American National cemeteries abroad where they fell.
 The cost would be between $l95,- 100000 and s215,000.000.

 Los Angeles challenging Angels pressed the panicky feeling on the leading San Francisco Seals from half game behind today in their struggle for first place in the Paci- fic Coast Baseball League
 The Angels pounded three Seal pitchers last night for their second series victory, to 5, in three games.
 Pulling up on the outside further to threaten San Francisco'S all- season dominance were the Oak land Acorns. who for the third con- sccutive time turned down the Hol- lywocd Stars in lucky eighth in- nings. The Acorns' 5-4 victory left them in third place but only a game behind San Francisco.
 The Sacramento Solons survived ninth-inning rally to beat the San Diego Padres, to 5, while the Portland cellar dwellers sub dued the Seattle Rainiers, 5 to l.

SIX ALASKAN BOYS. COMING NORTH ON REFRIGERATOR SHIP
Aluefidn Queen Being Re- converted at Seattle
 Grew Signs

SEATTLE, May 17.-Six Alaskan residents, all but one of them a veteran of the Aleutian campaign, will return to those raging waters next month as crew members cn the Aleutian Queen, modern refrig- orator and mother ship for four fishing launches.
 Crew members are Karl Thelle, Warren and Wilfred Gartley, and Harold Maxi, of Wrangell; Mix, Uttecht of King Cove; and Harry See of Juneau.
 The toat will be sklppcred by Homer Kyros and Mel Leonard, part-owners. They have fished in Bristol Bay and in other Alask waters for the past ten years, ex- cepting the years they were serving in the Army.
 The ship, now under conversion into refrigerator ship in a Seattle shipyard, was the F. s. 252, long-used in the Aleutians by the Transportation Corp, to transport personnel from the mainland to island bases. She was declared sur plus and sold at Seward several months ago. There some of ttc Alaska crew members signed on and aided in sailing the vessel south.
 Ire newly -christened Aleutian Queen is having cold stcrace rooms installed that will give the ship a large storage capacity. It is plan ned to immediately filet the fish and sharp freeze them. The fish themselves will not be caught from the ship, but from four motor launches, carrying either purse seines or gill nets.
 At the end of the season it is planned to sail the 148 foot ves- sel into Southern waters to fish tuna.

Next to the legality of the re- serve clause ill the players con- tracts, baseball's most puzzling question today is what has hap pened to Bostons power laden Red Sox?
 Held to only three hits by Jack Kramer in last nights 80 defeat by the St. Louis Browns, the re- ceding Red Sox stumbled through their fifth consecutive contest in which they failed to produce more than four safeties.
 In handing the Sox their third shutout of the season, Kramer fac ed only 31 batters last night and did not allow a runner to reach third until the ninth inning. Tte Brownie righthander set the Red Sox down in order in five innings.
