 Absolutely safe" is hardly the way some of these bereaved parents would describe it.
 If you ask me, I'd rather make a dozen visits to the doctors office, meanwhile keeping on with my reg ular work, play and eating, than make one visit to the operating room, with maybe side-trip to an- other institution on the way home
 If the so-called surgical" method is absolutely safe why not give eld- erly patients, bleeders and those with heart disease the benefit of such safety?
 Come, Doctor, let's not take the pretensions of our fellow quacks too seriously. After all, we can't fool the people all the time.
 The truth is that these "ab- solutely safe" operators are a little niffed because the diathermy (elec- tro-coagulation) treatment, which has become the method of choice for a great many people, demands far greater skill than most of the tonsillectomy hounds possess.

$4,000 New Draftees
Endorsed by Senators
By the Associated Press.

Gen. Eisenhower call for 250.-
900 new draftees by July l won
a conditional Endorsement today
on Capitol Hill.
The special Senate investigators
Iof the rehabilitation tempest re-
ported that prospective selectees plus
volunteers could insure the 1,500 900
man Army which the Army Chief of
Staff insists is essential to carry out
commitments after midyear.
Gen. Eisenhower emphasized when
he testified before the inquiry that
only if the tagging draft lis abe to
provide the $4,000 men per month
we are asking for will the 100000
man Army be guaranteed under our
present discharge policy"
The Senate Military Affairs Sub
committee recommended continuing
the rate of demobilization of the
past few months" 1t also was of
the opinion that the current re-
eruiting drive would produce more
volunteers than the Army estimates,
thereby reducing the number of
draftees required.
The report filed by the subcom-
mittee yesterday advocated the dis
charge of all fathers in the Army
by July l, except volunteers-some-
thing Gen. Eisenhower testified could
not be done.
The unanimous report, signed by
Senators johnson, Democrat, of
Colorado, chairman: Briggs, Demo-
crat. of Missouri and Revercomb,
Republican, of West Virginia quoted +
verbatim Gen. Eisenhower's prom
iSes last week that men with As
points or 80 months service would
be released or be in the process by
April 80. followed by men with 40
points or two years service by
June 80.
Both dates, the Senators said, are
the absolute deadline" so that
thousands of these men must be re-
leased ahead of time.

General Rail Strike
Unlikely Despite Vote
Call, AFL Leaders Say
Ry the Associated Press.

.
MIAMI, Fla, Jan. 24.-American
Federation of Labor leaders con-
nected with the railroad industry
expressed the opinion today that a
general railway strike would be
averted despite the threat of two
brotherhoods to walk out.
The Brotherhood of Railroad
Trainmen has announced prepara-
tons to conduct q strike vote in
about three weeks and the Brother
hood of Locomotive Engineers has
threatened to follow suit.
Neither of these groups, number
ing less than 100000 members, is
affiliated with the American Fed
Grafton OF Labor, but the AFL does
have the railroad shop crafts and
one operating union, the switchmen
One top railroad union official in
position to know the plans of
other unions which have not vet
committed themselves on the strike
issue, said: We're not thinking of
such thing-at least not at the
moment"
The railroad unions generally
have been negotiating jointly for
Is per cent wage increase. The
trainmen also have asked that GER
tain working rules be revamped.
The AFL official said: "Of course.
one man can 60 on strike-nobody
is acting in concert in this matter.
Il am satisfied, though, that there
will be no general STRIKE" he added.
He indicated that the trainmen,
headed by A. F. Whitney, and the
locomotive engineers, headed by
Alvanley Johnston, were leading an
independent movement toward a
strike.
Mr.. Whitney announced that
preparations for a strike vote would
be completed in about three weeks.
AFL leaders here for the midwinter
sessions Of the executive council
pointed out that such a step would
fbe followed by appointment of an
emergency fact-finding board by the
President under the provisions of
the Railroad Labor Act.

Ford, ChrysIer Renew
JAW Wage Talks;
GIN Still Dead|ocked
BY the Associated Press.

by the Associated Press,
DETROIT, Jan. "a. The Ford
Motor Co. and Chrysler Corp. today
resumed wage talks with the CIC
United Auto Workers, but neither
the union nor General Motors
showed signs of coming any closer
to settlement of the strike now in its
ninth week.
Yesterdays negotiating sessions
brought only brief union comment
that some progress" was made at
the ChrySler meeting and a Ford
offlclals statement that I'VE are still
talking wages"
Compromise Figures Offered.
Norman Matthews, JAWS Chrys-
ief director, gave no. hint yesterday
as to whether the union had lowered
Its 30 per cent increase demand as
1t did in the case of Ford and Gen.
eral Motors.
A l712 per cent compromise
hgure, originally proposed for set
tlement of the GIN strike by Presi-
dent Truman's fact-finding board,
Is still being proffered by the union
IN Ford negotiations, but the UAW
now has returned to its 80 per cent
demand on General Motors after
the corporation refused to accept
the proposal.
Chrysler Officials Silent.
Ihere were persistent rumors
that further compromise was i'm
mlnent in the JAWS discussions
with Ford. which has offered a 49,
cent wage boost to counter the
unions present 1872 cent demand.
Settlement at an 1812-cent-per-
hour increase would amount to
l5.5 per cent raise.
ChrySler spokesmen also refused
comment on their meeting with the
union. Mr.. Matthews only state
ment was we revised the whole
picture and made some progress at
today's meeting"
The unions demand on GIN went
back to 80 per cent at midnight
Monday. the deadline set by the
JAW for management's acceptance
OF the compromise. Since then
neither side has made any move to
seek resumption of negotiations.

BY BLAIR MOODY,

paper Alliance, Inc.)
NEW YORK, Jan. 24.-Henry j
Kaiser today proposed a formula for
settling the steel strike, based on q
wage increase plus bonus for high
production, and said he would like
to talk" with leaders of the steel in
dustry and the union in an effort to
end the tieup.
The wartime shipbuilder and new
est invader of the steel and auto
mobile industries, who Is reported at
the White House to be the most
likely choice for steel czar' if Presi-
dent Truman seizes the struck
plants, suggested compromise on a
basic wage increase "a little lower
than the 1874 -cent-an-hour figure
proposed by the President which Mr..
Kaiser himself accepted as basis for
|a new wage contract for his steel
plant at Fontana, Calf.
But Mr.. Kaiser would couple with
this basic" increase a sliding-scale
bonus, based on production, which
could carry the steel workers earn
ings considerably higher than the
levels contemplated under the 1872
cent formula.
BY insuring high-level production
tor the highest wage levels, such
a solution would "impregnably pro-
tect" the interests of industry, he
said; by opening the door to higher
earnings even than those suggested
by Mr.. Truman's proposal, it would
give labor an opportunity to improve
its living standards by its own
efforts.
General Pattern for Peace.
Mr.. Kaiser SAID this solution could
also be applied in the General
Motors strike, which has tied up
one of his biggest automobile conf
petitors for more than two months.
and might we'll become a general
pattern for industrial peace.
Mr.. Kaiser's formula follows the
principle of linking higher wages to
higher production which he recently
instituted in his new wage contract
at Kaiser-Frazer Corp, in Detroit,
and which had been previously ad-
vanced by Senator Knowland, Re-
publican, Of California as suggest
ed answer" to the Nations indus
trial problems. to Reconversion Di-
rector John w. Snyder and Secre-
tary of Labor Schwellenbach.
The Knowland plan, which is
known to be favorably regarded by
Mr.. Snyder and others at the White
House. would establish a basic wage
by collective bargaining and provide
for quarterly bonus or adjustment
of wages based on the profits of the
company.
Mr.. Kaiser today gave full backing
to the Knowland principle that by
linking earnings to performance
both higher wages and higher pro-
duction is possible and that in this
way, and perhaps only in this way,
can the interests of both capital
and labor be protected.
FavOrs Annual Payments.
However. he said he believed it
wiser to make the extra payments
on an annual. rather than a quar-
terly basis as the Senator proposed,
and advocated gearing the sliding
scale" of workers earnings directly
TO productivity rather than to COM
pany proflts, as was recently done
by Eric Johnston. president of the

Textile Workers Seek
z
.15-Cent Hourly Boost
From Southern Mills
By the Associated pre.a

CHARLOTTE, N. c.. Jan. 24.-CIo
textile workers employed in 147
Southern cotton mills will demand A
general wage increase of Is cents an
hour and a minimum wage of 10
cents an hour. Emil Rieve, interna-
tional president of the Textile
Workers Union of America, has
announced.
Approximately 100000 union men,
bers are said to be affected by the
demands. Mr.. Rieve declared that
as many more nonunion textile
workers in the South are likely
to hold joint interest with the
unions, since wage advances and
other advantages spread to the
unorganized mills.
Will Prepare Demands.
Mr.. Rieve left Charlotte today for
New York to dispatch letters to the
mills involved, requesting immediate
negotiation of the union demands.
Decision to seek the wage in
.ereases was reached here yesterday
at a conference of the unions South
>AAA NA0t4ASS
The need for bringing the wages
OF Southern textile workers more
nearly in line with those in the
North is as obvious as it is urgent"
Mr.. Rieve declared in statement
issued with the announcement.
Nothing but sub-standard
condition of living is possible under
the present Southern cotton textile
wage which, according to the
United States Bureau of Labor Sta
tistics, averages So cents an hour. or
S27.20 week on a straight time
basis"
Hits Pay Differential.
Mr.. Rieve's statement asserted
there is no reason or logic or Gus
tom why Southern textile workers
should be paid substantially less
than Northern textile workers
Mr. Rieve claimed the TWUA
has been almost wholly responsible
for raising the minimum wage in
Southern cotton textile mills from
25 cents an hour, in 1888, to the
present effective minimum Of So
cents an hour"
