Mr.. Small's formal statement wal
optimistic, saying:
while we are not over the hump
we are moving ahead and it is safe
to say that in the not too distan
future the normal balance between
low and high cost apparel will b<
re- established.
However, it will still be a long
time before supply pipelines Of low
cost apparel, which had been emp
tied by the end of the war, will once
more be filled with the clothing

Moderately pMced cotton and
rayon clothing for children, women's
dresses and underthings, and mems
shorts will not apepar in stores for
periods of several weeks to some
months after manufacturers place
their order for the priority fabric,
Mr.. Small said. !
1--WE do not anticipate that the
full force of the program will be felt
at the consumer end for at least
another 80 days-and, in some in
stances, considerably longer than
that.
nevertheless, isolated reports
show that even now shelves which
had been completely barren of
vitally needed clothing are already
beginning to feel the impact of the
cooperative effort between business
and Government to overcome the
deficiency."

er to carry out any consistent pro-
gram if there is no solidarity in his
own party.
But the majority of voters seem
to be more willing to accept that
danger than to accept outside in
reference in local elections. Mr..
Roosevelt tried unsuccessfully in
1888 to purge such men as Senator
George of Georgia, and Cotton
Ed Smith of South Carolina,
among others for failure to adhere
to the Administrations program.
U. S. Representative John O'Con-
nor of New York, suffered defeat
as result of Roosevelt opposition

Resent Outsiders
Public opinion surveys at the
time indicated that many Ameri-
can voters resent having anyone
outside their state or their Con-
gressional district attempting to
dictate their choice of Congressman
or Senator.
Todays survey again shows the
rank and file unwilling to see party
members punished because of ir-
regularity to the party program.

Army Attraction

The Wallace Strawberry Festival
may have an air show after all,
complete with paratroopers falling
from the skies and the whole
works.
Lieut.. N. G. Cottle, returned
from Wallace yesterday where he
was in conference with Mayor Au-
brey ]. Harrell, and Lieut.. W. 0.
I4ieding, representing the command
ing general of the o2nd Airborne
division.
To Cooperate
Promising nothing definite on this
undecided phase of the Army S
participation in the festival, the
Fort Bragg officer talked en-
coura gingly, and promised to do
all possibl. to make the air show
reality.
The festival which opens May l
and runs through the 18th will be
sounded otf with mile-long
parade which will include floats,
bands, and at least 600 airborne
troops from Fort Bragg. Included
in this battalion of troops will be
special honor guard for the &C.
casion, drilled for special parades.
Army Booth
The local Army recruiting sta
ton of which Lieutenant Cottle is
officer in charge, will have a booth
at the festival with a troop glider,
recruiting details, small and large
Army weapons and other equip
ment.
A feature of the Wallace booth
will be the display and demonstra-
ton of the famed Bazooka or anti
tank weapon.
Enemy Souvenirs
Captured enemy equipment Will
also be on display. Six paratroop-
ers from Fort Bragg will be on
hand thu oughout the 11-oay period
to demonstrate the equipment. "A

station will also be present to ac-
cept applicants for enlistment III

bring together representatives from
many countries. There they will

My entire life has been given to
the study of figures-or what the
professors call "statistics''. These
figures, I have laboriously collect
ed, compiled and used in an en-

business, investment and social
trends. At one time I almost wor-
shipped figures. But now-at the
age of To- have concluded that the
world is not ruled by figures-but
rather by feelings. This is another
reason for my interest in music.

relieved, Gen. Hasbrouck, then a
brigadier general, had joined the
division as one of its combat COM
manders. He said Col. Silvester's
reception lacked cordiality" because
he thought the latter had another
ofiicer in mind for the Job. From
stan ofIlcers at Gen. Bradley's head
quarters, he said he had heard un-
satisfactory reports concerning the
7th Division.
Outspoken in Opinions.
His own opinions about Gen. Sill
vester and his division staff were
quite outspoken. Gen. Sylvester had
been accused Of lacking aggressive
ness" as commander. Asked about
this Gen. Hasbrouck replied:
IF haranguing his subordinates
was aggressiveness, he was pretty
aggressive"
Col. Sylvester had the habit of
going to his combat commanders
and urging them to increase their
efforts. Gen. Hasbrouck explained
He cracked the whip to make
things go. Sometimes he would
make me mad-act mulish. He
would carry on TRADES before your
staff officers and embarrass YOU"
Asked about his estimate of Col.
Sylvester as a commander, Gen.
Hasbrouck replied that sometimes
he knew the situation and some
times not"
Gen. Sylvester was like a man
being ridden from top side and
passing it along" he explained. "He
wanted his division to perform we'll

Gen. Marshall Letter
Expected 10 Figure
In Sylvester Inquiry
By Nelson IA. Sheoard

N communication DeueFeQ TO nave
been received from Gen. George C.
Marshall in China is expected to
figure in the case of Col. Lindsay
Med. Sylvester when an Army court
resumes its inquiry Monday into
reasons for his removal from COM
mand Of the 7th Armored Division
in Europe and subsequent demotion
from the rank Of major general.
Also subject to possible inquiry at
the hearing is transatlantic tele-
phone conversation in which the
former Army Chief of STAFF and
Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower are said
to have discussed the demotion OF
the Washington oficer. Previous
testimony of Gen. Eisenhower, coun-
sci said, referred to a telegram he
sent Gen. Marshall in connection
with the case pursuant to our tele-
phone conversation"
Counsel for Col. Lindsay said that,
when Gen. Eisenhower was cues
toned about this, he had mo rec
election of the conversation.
Seek to Obtain Papers.
For this reason and also to obtain
any papers bearing on the case
which may be in Gen. Marshall's 5
personal files, counsel has asked the
court to communicate with Gen.
Marshall, When the matter was
brought up by Attorney Samuel T.
Answell, a retired Judge advocate
general. at the end of the session
late yesterday, a court attache said
Gen. Marshall's reply had not been
received.
! 1t. Gen. Albert c. Wedemeyer,
president of the court. at once in
terposed: II am informed to the
contrary. I heard the reply has
come back, and Gen. Marshalls
answer should 60 into the evidence" I"
The court recorder was told to con-
tact the office of Gen. Eisenhower,
who is now enroute to Europe and
cannot be recalled as a witness.
Attorney Ansell has claimed
through the hearing that Col. Sill
vester was denoted during the fall
of 1914 after verbal" complaints
to Gen. Omar N. Bradley, then
commander of the 18th Army Group
from the late Gen. George s. Patton,
3rd Army commander, and 1t. Gen.
Walton Bradley. his corps COM
mander. At no time, it is claimed,
have written charges been produced
against Col. Sylvester.
Two Letters Produced
On the contrary, records yester-
day produced two additional letters
from Silvester's former British
commanders, highly praising the
record of the 7th Division in the
little Ardennes" battle in Holland,
before his demotion.
The letters were addressed to
Maj. Gen. Robert w. Hasbrouck,
former deputy chief of the staff to
Gen. Bradley, who had succeeded
Sylvester in command of the divi-
sion. Gen. Hasbrouck replied on
cross-examination the letters re-
ferred to the divisions operations
while Gen. Sylvester was commander
The letters were dated November
8, 1914, by Gen. Sir Miles Demp-
sey, British commander of ar
mored forces, and 1t. Gen. Richard
OConnor, corps commander.
Gen Hasbrouck insisted he had
not sought the command of the
7th Division but admitted he had
asked Gen. Bradley to give him
some combat command.
Indicating apparent personal an
tagonism, he was closely questioned
by both court and counsel.
A month before Col. Sylvester was
