 Leftisf Government

TOKYO, May 1.-Organized la Dor used it's occupation won free- dom to voice May Day threat of general strike to support it's de- mand for Leftist government
 Meantime, Japanese police and American forces searched for the fanatic accused of having plotted to assassinate General Macarthur at the height of today's celebration by an estimated 100000 Japanese in front of the Imperial Palace.
 It was Japans first May Day cell ebration in II years and it passed quietly without single reported act of violence.
 Socialist Kanju Kato, in labor committee conference with Premier Shidehara, said nationwide walk cut might be called if a single party cabinet was formed by the Rightist Liberals. The Liberal Par ty wen 139 Diet seats jn the recent election but failed to gain a ma- jority.
 The conference followed the as- sembly which the American Provost Marshall estimated attracted 4O0,- coo Japanese. The crowd, gathered just a block from MacArthur's headquarters, waved red banners, sang, and heard speeches demand ing rights for workers. Then it dis persed in the rain to march through various sections of the cap- ital while Kato's group went to confer with Shidehara.
 Armed American soldiers circu- lated through the crowd, looking for Hideo Tokayama, accused by MacArthur's headquarters of hav- ing plotted to kill him with gren- ades and pistols at the height of today's celebration. An informant now in American custody told Mac Arthur's aides of the plot.

The W Washington Merry Co., Round
By DREW PEARSON

WASHINGTON-It has just leak ed out that Secretary of State Jim my Byrnes held an important and very hush-hush meeting with the Senate Foreign Relations Commit tee just before he. took off for Paris.
 Byrnes was there to prepare the Senators for the possibility that the Paris conference might be a dismal failure. As a result, several Senators got the impression that Jimmy was going to Paris in de- featest frame of mind. The em- barrassing questions they asked probably didn't make him feel any happier.
 Byrnes emphasized the import ance of getting peace treaties sign ed as soon as possible, using Italy and the dangerous Trieste impasse as an example to prove the urgency of early settlement. The Russians. he added, however, are holding back.
 He also told the Senators about the Polish loan, justifying it as a possible lever to help win free election in Poland. Here Senator Arthur Vandenberg, Michigan Re- publican, who represents one of the biggest Polish blocs in the U.S.A., stepped in with some needing questions.
 Specifically, Vandenberg wanted to now whether Byrnes believed a free election would be at all pos sible under Russian domination in Poland. Byrnes replied with no great conviction in his voice-that "any effort toward a free election is a step forward"
 WHY DID WE OK. TITO?
 Senator Styles Bridges of New Hampshire, another Republican, then expressed indignation over the State Departments recognition of the Yugoslav government of Mar shal Tito.
 T am astonished," said Bridges, tat the State Departments appar- ent sanction of this troublesome to- talitarian dictator"
 Byrnes replied that recognition of a government did not mean putting our stamp of approval on. it.1 He was taken aback, however, when asked if severing relations with a government did not mean our disapproval. Finally he insist ed that the two actions are not to be considered strictly as opposites.
 Vandenberg then pressed for an answer as to how the State De- partment feels about disposition of the Polish armies of General An ders, which fought in Italy with the Allied forces and now don't want to go back to Soviet -dominat- ed Poland Again Byrnes lodged an answer, saying it was Up to Congress to determine whether these Polish troops might be grant, ed American citizenship as mem bers of our armed forces, or might be taken into the American army as a sort of foreign legion.'
 Byrnes made it plain that the Russians have indicated definite hostility toward American accept ance of these anti-Warsaw, Poles.
 Note Byrnes did not indicate that the State Department is

Pathetic Pleas Made For Ships

JOHANNESBURG, South Afri- ca-A shipping bottleneck is keep ing more than 200 South Africans from visiting Europe to hunt for missing next-of-kin, while more than 10000 persons are waiting in England for passage to South Africa.
 Every day we receive pathetic letters," said an immigration and passport officer, "but there is lit tie we can do. Our allocation works out at 50 berths a month, out of which urgent business and other priorities must be accommo- dated
 Some of the South Africans stranded in England are young war widows and children in dire financial straits because of being unable to return home"
 The South Africans waiting for passage to Europe are mostly nat uralized settlers from the Balkan countries, many of whom left their families behind. The Red Cross and other organizations have made strenuous efforts to find some trace of their kin, without success.

WILDCAT CACERS
PRACTICE HAIR D
Collie, Fennell, McKoy,
Brown, Mason Look Great
In First S~crimmages

New Hanover High school basket
ball practice climbed into high
gear last night, as Coach Leon
Brodgen assembled his four return
ing first stringers from Duke-Dur-
ham Consolation winners plus Billy
Mason, and sent them through first
scrimmage.
If the Wildcats have lost any of
their 'touch'' since February it
was not evident last night. W. A.
Brown, even though not yet in good
shape, handled the ball with his
old instinct and spotted players in
the open lightning fast. Louis
Collie also showed up well with
his shooting and passing, while
Fitzhugh Fennell Unbiased a new
type Of Grip shot that brought roars
of applause from the coaches and
the small group of fans present.
Johnny McKoy couldn't miss on his
rebounds, hanging up more points
than any other player. The doubt
in spectators minds concerning
how good Mason is was cleared up
when the lanky forward dropped in
points from any spot around the
basket.
Looking good besides the first
five yesterday were Billy Hardison,
Homer Ellis, Johnny .CrowIe, Lin
wood Grissom. and Marion Rogers.
Meanwhile Charlie Smith and Don
Hyatt, two lettermen from last sea-
sons team, still have not showed
up for cage practice. Smith, who
was called the sixth man OF the
varsity, gave indications yester-
day that he will not go out. The
same can be said of Hyatt, SIT. 5
in. center. Coach Brodgen has not
commented o nthe tWo's absence
yet, but it is highly probable he ex-
poets them any day now.
