WASHINGTON, Oct. 8. -U.H-
Henry A. Wallace, recently fired
from President Humans cabinet
for publicly d%isagreeing with the
administration on foreign policy,
charged Thursday night that "the
stubborn and inflexihle position
taken by Bernard Baruch had
created an ''impasse' in this gov

Baruch, U. S. delegate to the
United Nations Atomic Energy

of having created confusion and

failing to correct %"errors" he

DEMOCRATIC STATE
IN HOLY LAND ASKED
BY ARAB DELEGATES

LONDON, Oct. 3. -(P- Arab
delegates to the London Palestine
conference have asked for creation
of an independent, democratic
state in the Holy Land by Dec.
81, 1913.
Details of the plan were ~releas-
ed Thursday, "a hours after the
inconclusive session was recessed
until Dec. 16 to allow delegates
to attend other international con-
ferences, including the United Ma
tons General Assembly in New
York,
the Arabs urged that during the
intervening transitional period a
provisional government be set up,
to be made up of seven Arabs and
three Jewish ministers of Palestin-
ian nationality.
"Unless and until legislation pro-
vides otherwise" the plan speci-
fled, Jewish immigration into
Palestine should be entirely pro-
hibited and the existing land trans
fer restrictions should remain I'M

MILK, BUTTER, CHEESE

Washington, Oct. 3.-(P-The
Price Decontrol board adjourned
Indefinitely Thursday without max
ing any move to restore price cell
ings on milk, butter, cheese and
other dairy products.
A spokesman for tn aboard said,
however, that, the subject of re-
control of dairy products is left
open and may be taken up at any
time on a call of Chairman Roy
L. Thompson.
This official told reporters that
government agencies and seq
ments of the dairy industry had
failed to provide complete price
data asked, by the board.
Twice before, on Aug. 20 and
Sept. 20, the board decided against
reccntrolling milk and it's products
and both times it said that if prices
rose unreasonably it would order

BLACK MARKETERS.
HIT BY SHORTAGE
P Packers, Housewives, OPA
Agree Legitimate Deal
ing Out OF Picture

WASHINGTON, Oct. 8 - up -
Officials, the trade and housewives
over much of the nation agreed
with OPA's meat price enforce
ment chief Thursday that the black
market is virtually out of business,
but there we're broad suggestions
that the actual non-existince Of
steaks and roasts has a lot to do
with it.
Irving M. Gruber, the meat en-
forcement man, told a reporter that
his $500 agents have all but stamp
ed out the illicit traffic and are
keeping 24-hour watch on all stocks
to see that when they move they
move under ceiling prices.
n Washington his statement that
there is virtually no meat in black
market channels was called to the
attention of the National Associa-
ton of Non-slaughter packers.
An associate of Joseph Danzansky,
general counsel of the organization,
commented that that probably was
about right, ''but it's a heck of a
way to break the black market"
He suggested that it doesn't
mean much until legitimte dealers
have meat. Pointing to reports
that slaughtering is down rs per
Gent from last year, he said pack
ers simply cannot buy livestock at
prices that will let them sell al
ceilings.
Have Trouble, Too
In Chicago, packer spokesman
were queried, il a spot check made
by The Associated Press, as to
what has happened to the black
market meat supply. They were
unanimous in saying black mar
ket buyers may have been hav.
ing trouble getting meat.

that Cd we do not like horses and

We car offer no reason for this
mutual dislike, and neither, most

between horses and us, we want te

-B-The American Legion
T h d a y turned thumbs
down on a World War II
veteran bonus, but pumped
for a reduction of income
taxes and immediate cash
redemption of CT Terminal
Leave bonds.
Rejection of bonus pro-
posals followed a noisy, shout
ing demonstration in support
of National Commander John
Steele of Illinois in his feud
with Gen. Omar N. Bradley, the
veterans administrator, and adop-
ton of a resolution demanding an
immediate session of Congress to
amend the Veterans Training act.
A report of the legislative COM
mittee rejecting the bonus and urg-
ing tax and terminal leave bond
action was adopted unanimously.
A trio of bonus proposals were
turned down.
The tax action proposed that vet
Grams be exempted from paying
taxes on the first $4,000 earned in
come for the three years immedi-
ate following their discharge from
the service.
In endorsing legislative amend
ment to permit immediate cashing
of terminal leave bonds, the Legion
convention took a stand against the
position Of the Truman administra-
ton in providing for non--edeem-
able conds as a temporary anti
imitation step.

I'VE deplo-e and condemn such
intervention in the affairs of ma
tons as has already made some

The convention, after debate, de-
