By Spurned G| Wife
BY the Assoeioted Press

LOS ANGELES, Mar. e.-An
Australian war wife, the former
Edna Marshall of Cairns, was hop
ing today for reconciliation with
her American husband who failed
to meet her when she arrived here
yesterday with their 2-year-old
daughter.
MY feeling for her just changed
that's ALL" the husband, Charles A.
Beckham, told a reporter. Late in
February I wired her not to come
but her boat already had left"
Il am so confused and homesick
and afraid" Mrs. Beckham said at
the home of her husbands step
mother, who met the train on which
the 25-year-old wife arrived with a
party of 81 Australian war wives
and "a children.
Il love Charles dearly. My feel
ings for him haven't changed in the
slightest"
The young woman, waitress, and
Beckham, a Navy boilermaker, were
married in Cairns in November
1943.
HE came in, we started talking
and he asked me for a date" she
said. Then we started going to-
gether. Then we got married"

Britain Backs u. S. Stand
On Bulgarian Government

LONDON. Mar. 9 (P).-Great Brit
ain is backing an American demand
that the Bulgarian government be
broadened to include two members
Of the opposition before recognition
is granted, Foreign ONCE spokes-
man said today.
This disclosure Of Britain's stand
followed Russia'S protest that a re-
cent American communication to
Bulgaria "infringes" a decision Of
the Big Three foreign ministers
and caused the opposition to the
Bulgarian government to sabotage"
the three-power agreement.
The Foreign Office official said
Richard Tollington, Britain's acting
representative in Sofia, informed the
Bulgarian government several days
ago that Britain was associating her
self with the American memoran-
dunn of February %.
Mr.. Tollington, he said, had kept
the Foreign once fully informed"
of political activities in Bulgaria.
There was nothing to indicate" he
added, that the American represent
ative in Sofia, Maynard Barnes, had
exerted pressure on the Bulgarian
opposition.

Sweet, who lives at 424 Aldine

a co-partner in the battery firm
of which he is vice president at
4714 West Kinzie street, Chicago.
According to the story told FBI
agents by Mr.. Harwood, Sweet had
been in contact with the CPA twice
before this year to arrange for ma
terial quotas for use in his business.
Got Two Quotas.
Previously, Sweet had obtained
the first quarterly quota of lead for
1916 and last month he obtained a
second quota from Mr.. Harwood
for an additional 42 tons.
On Tuesday, Sweets third trip to
Washington, he approached Mr.
Harwood with the request for the
additional 116 tons of lead, coupled
with the bribe, Mr.. Harwood told

Capt. Mi||iken Backs
Social Protection Fund

Continuation of the social protec-
ton division of the Federal Security
Agency is one Of the really definite
steps that can be taken to prevent
postward relaxation of efforts to
combat prostitution, control venereal
disease and offset delinquency and
family disintegration, Capt. Rhoda
]. Miuiken, chief of the Women's
Bureau of the Washington Police
Department, testified yesterday.
Capt. Milliken appeared before a
Senate education subcommittee in
support of legislation offered by
Senators Taft, Republican, of Ohio:
George, Democrat, of Georgia, and
LaFollette, Progressive, of Wiscon-
sin, to continue FSA assistance to
States on social protection prob
lens.
Her statement came a day after
testimony by Charles P. Taft, Sena-
tor Taft's brother and chairman of
the National Venereal Disease and
Social Protection Committee, in
which he warned that rapid curses
of venereal disease by penicillin have
made it more difficult for local au-
thorities to combat prostitution and
sex delinquency.
Despite the fact to 10 per cent
of the cases do not respond to peni-
cillin treatment, Mr.. Taft said. the
public impression is that these
diseases are no longer serious" "
Arguments other than those based
on health must be stressed in any
control campaign, he added.
The bill would authorize a sum of
100000 annually with which FSA
would help enforcement officials in
the District and the States in their
fight against prostitution and We
nereal disease.

Pay-Pact Practices
Are Sailing Housing,
Labor Official Says

The Labor Department last night
denounced short-term wage con-
tracts between building trades
unions and contractors as a threat
to stabilization and serious i'm
pediment to the housing program"
simultaneously, Housing Admin
istrator Wyatt took up the fight
again for premium payments to
spur production of building materi-
ais. Described at the heart" of the
administration housing program,
proposal for 5000 100000 in sub
sides was eliminated for the Pat
man housing bill by the House last
week.
Failure to use there payments,
Mr.. Wyatt said, will mean either
cost of hundreds of millions of
dollars to taxpayers-chiefiy veter-
ans-or hundreds of thousands of
veterans and their families will 20
without homes" He estimated that
a saving of 81 400OO0,O0O could be
effected in the next two years by
use of subsidies.
ShOrt-Term Contracts Hit.
Arthur D. Hill, chairman of the
Labor Departments Wage Adjust
ment Board noted that increasing
numbers of short-term collective
bargaining agreements are being
signed and warned that the board
will refuse requests for wage in
creases backed by contracts which
are obviously stopgaps in a move
to push wages and prices higher" ="
1T lies within the province Of
the contracting parties to halt this
trend without delay the Labor
Department official declared, land
representatives of both manage
ment and labor should negotiate on
a true contractural basis"
In another housing development
yesterday, Fortune Magazine released
findings of poll conducted by FL
mo Roper showing that the Amer
lean people are "strikingly in favor
Of positive Government action" to
end the housing shortage. The poll
showed that 8l.3 per cent of the
people want rent ceilings main
tanned, 633 per cent oppose lifting
ceiling prices on building materials
and 1856 per cent want materials
channeled into loW-cost housing "by
Government action"
Even among homeowners, TIA per
cent want rent ceilings retained, the
survey disclosed.
Two Named to Key Jobs.
Mr.. Wyatt, moving to strengthen
MIA, yesterday named Norton E.
Long as assistant administrator In
charge of'program requirements and
Robert r. Nathan as special eco
nomic conSultant on the veterans
housing program. Mr.. Long has
been with OPA in charge of CO.
ordinating activities in the building
field. Mr.. Nathan was deputy di-
rector of the Off1ce of War Mobili-
zation and Reconversion.
The housing chief also announced
that present holders of Government
priorities for veterans dwellings
would not be affected by forth
coming regulations implementing
the housing program. Since mid
January more than 100000 priority
applications have been received and
about $4,000 have been authorized.
The pared down Patman housing
measure, meanwhile, is scheduled to
move this week to the Senate where
administration forces hope to SAL
wage some Of the provisions knocked
out by a coalition of Republicans
and Democrats.

were invited, white delegates from
the south would ignore our invita-
ton"
They added that they were ad-
vised in this matter by Thomas
M. Campbell and J. W. Mitchell,
Negro field agents Of the Agricul-
ture Department.
Delmas Rushing, Jr., prize win
ming delegate of Bullock County,
Georgia, expressed surprise when
confronted by the statement Of Ag-
riculture Department officials.
Interviewed at the foot of Abra-
ham Lincoln's tomb, where he was
being conducted on a sightseeing
tour as guest Of the government,
the young Georgian said:
81 can't understand why the

never questioned on the matter
of cOlOred people attending our
Camp. II l had been ! would
never have objected because l

He was then asked if he would
object to competing his All prize
winners against those Of Negro
All workers in the state of Geor-
gia.
They don't allow US to COM
pete against the cOlOred, down
there" Rushing said, but l don't
know why. III match my cows
and pigs against any cows and
pigs raised by anybody in the

ly. He added that his cows and
pigs had been prize winners in
the District competition in the
state of Georgia.
Echoing the words Of Rushing,
pretty, youthful, Miss Luree Jones,
delegate from the city of Tryon in
Lincoln County, Oklahoma, also
spoke out against the exclusion of
colored All workers from the ma
tional camp.
Its not right" Miss Jones
said. 81 never was asked, but l
never would have objected"

Camp was convened here last Tues
day with white All Club delegates

Alaska and Hawaii attending as
guests of the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture. Delegates
ages ranged from 16 to 81 years.
At the Lincoln Memorial the
Agricultural Department staged a
ceremony with the young All work
ers which was particularly ironical
when one remembered that Negroes
were barred from participation in
