HAYNES WOMAN ASKS WRIT or
 HABEAS CORPUS

A petition for a writ of habeas corpus has been filed here with the Clerk of the District Court by attorney William L. Paul, Jr., on behalf of Louise Williams of Haines, who is at present in custody in the Federal jail here.
 The petition calls upon the United States Marshal to show cause why the petitioner should not immediately be released from jail and alleges that her imprisonment and the judgment upon which she was committed to jail are illegal.
 The petition sets forth that Louise Williams was arrested at Haines on February 28, l946 on a charge of disorderly conduct, that upon arraignment before the U. s. Commissioner Ross Hevel there the charge was not read to her nor was she permitted to examine the charge and that following refusal to plead, the Commissioner forth with entered a plea of guilty against her and passed sentence of six months in jail and fine of $500 and that she was ordered to com mence serving the sentence immed- lately, whereupon she was transferr- ed to the jail here on or about March 10. Also, the petitioner did not waive trial by jury, nor was she accorded a jury trial as the law provides.

These same increases had been
voted by the House along with in
creases ranging from 10 to 20 per
cent for other n-on-commissioned
and for commissioned officers.
By-Passes Pay Raises
The Senate, however, passed up
the question of pay raises for COM
m~issioned officers and adopted a
lower scale of monthly pay boosts
for staff, technical and master
sergeants and equivalent ranks in
other services than approved by
the House.
Senator Quincy (R.-S.D.) esti-
mated the cost of the Senate-ap-
proved pay scale at $3.50, 900, 900,
while johnson placed the figure
at $3.50, 900, 900.
The Senate Military committee
had approved a lesser increase for
men in the lowest four grades
starting at s65 a month for privates
and apprentice seamen and Quincy
attempted to amend this to provide
increases for officers but the
Senate instead accepted the sub
stitute.
Administration Victory
The Senate's approval for resto.
ration Of the wartime 18-45 age
bracket gave the administration a
victory on its first test of strength
in a drive to obtain passage Of
the extension measure before the
day is over.
However, proposals are pending
to suspend all inductions under
the act. The House voted to suspend
inductions from May Is to Oct.
IS when it passed a nine-month ex-
tension exempting teen ayers.
BY a voice vote, the senate adopt
ed an amendment prohibiting in
duction of men with dependent chill
dren, including foster or adopted
children.
Sergeants TooTough
Senator Stanfill (R.-Ky) appeal
to the senate today not to intro
duce 'impressionable" youths "to
adult life through Army SER
geants."
His protest against the drafting
of teen-agers was one of several
uttered as the senate pushed to-
ward a vote.
Senator Quincy (R-s. D., in
charge of the bill for the military
committee, declared that induction
of 10 and 19-year-olds is necessary
to carry out other provisions in the
bill which call for discharge next
fall of fathers and men with 10
months service.

MANY MAY TAKE OVER
MOST SHORES JOBS HERE

If the great Maritime strike OF
June Is goes through as planned,
the U. S. Navy will probably take
over most Of the shore jobs in
Wilmington, according to a COM
munique received by Lieut.. H. c.
Bost, Wilmington port director.
from Rear Adm. L. T. DuBose,
commandant of the Sixth Naval
district, yesterday.
Admiral DuBose issued a call to
all reserve officers and enlisted
men in the district now on an in
active status who will volunteer
for active service if the strike is
called to communicate immediate
ly their names, addresses, ranks
or ratings, and qualifications to
their nearest Naval center.
Lieutenant Bost was directed to
forward to Charleston, S. c., dis
trict headquarters, a list of the
amount of men necessary to car
ny out the Wilmington shore jobs
in case the strike is called.
According to Peter Brown Ruff
fin, local shipping agent and ware
houseman, there are about $50
stevedores - including supervisors
and checkers - working in the
city's port, exclusive of the oil
terminals.
The stevedores work in 10 gangs
of about 20 men each, with
supervisor and two checkers per
gang.
If the Navy does send men to
take over these jobs, it is expected
that about 200 to $50 enlisted men
will do the bulk of the work under
the supervision of about 80 Off
GERS and petty officers. This ratio
OF officers and men will about
duplicate the present ratio of la
borers and supervisors now doing
the work.
The dispatch from the admiral
also revealed that officers
and men might be used to operate
ships as well as perform the shore
duties.
Deck, radio, and engineer men
are particularly needed, the dis
patch said, for sea duty.
