To become a member, a man must
first like to sing, and moreover, he
must be ABLE to sing-and on
pitch. He must also conduct himself
like a gentleman. The club does
not confine itself to men from any
specific walk Of life, but its members
are selected by invitation.
The late George O'Connor, the
Singing Troubadour," was a mem
ber of the group. Mr.. Justin Laurie
is also a member. Also on the chap
ter's roster are bank president. an
aeronautical engineer, former
Judge, several attorneys, some prom
inent Government officials and
few members of the metropolitan
police force. The Kansas City
branch claims President Truman as
a member.
At the present time, there are
eight quartets in the chapter. Each
quartet develops a personality,
chooses a name, and q costume.
Some are serious, some comic, and
some deity combine the two. The
quartets entertain at the monthly
club meetings, and around town.
The better quartets travel around
the country.
Right now, there's a dearth of
tenors-top tenors, really, with
voices definitely in a high register.
The chapter would be delighted to
locate any in town.
Attorney Jean Boardman, presi-
dent, is the man responsible for the

COLLIE PUPPY.
From Mrs. j. L. B., Aler1ndrid.)
Attention Mrs. w. M. r., Silver
Spring:
When my collie was q puppy /
learned that all collies drool, as
puppies, for few weeks. Perhaps
this Is comparable to q baby's drool-
Ing In cutting teeth. At any rate,
1t Is only temporary and he'll soon
outgrow 1t. However, even older
dogs drool when they are begging
for food.
AZ to shedding, your puppy Is now
shedding the thick baby wool, which
is being replaced by the silky adult
coat. It will continue until the
fuzzy coat Is completely shed. Then
the collie should shed only In warm
weather. However, mine, ut the
age of 8, seems to shed more or less
constantly and this is the principal
objection to keeping him In the
house. It makes a terrible chore Of
house cleaning.
But they're wonderful dogsl

Weiznann Outlines His Views On Palestine

of Inquiry on Palestine today,
as it opened hearings here, and
in a calm, but imprisoned four
and-a-half hour statement plead
ed with them to allow the build
ing of a Jewish>homeland in Pal

The high points of DR.. Weiz-
mann's testimony, which was
frequently interrupted by ques-
tons from the visibly interested
committee members, were:
l. Although he favors the ev-
entual establishment of a Jewish
state in Palestine, when the Jews
are in a majority, he does not
demand the establishment of
such a state Immediately, but
wants maximum Jewish immi-
grafton.
2. He is not interested in the
''trappings" of a Jewish state,
but wants estate power" for
Jews to develop the country, and
the immediate abolition of the
White Paper.
8. He wants peace with the
Arabs and is willing to meet
with them at any time to discuss
the future of the country.

5. He revealed that Winston

promised that when the war end
ed, he would try to convince the
U. S. Government to go along
with Zionist aspirations.
6. He is profoundly opposed
to violence and would do every
thing in his power to curb it.
The hearings opened to the
grinding of newsreel cameras, as
tanks and radio cars toured the
streets outside the places where
the hearings are being held and
the committee members are quar-
tered. The security measures are
so rigid that not even the COM
mittee personnel can leave the
King David Hotel, where they
are staying, without previously
informing the guards of where
they plan to go and accepting
the company of picked body
guards.
Correspondents were searched
for arms as they entered the
YMCA building where the hear
ings are going on, and police
with their fingers on the triggers
of tommyguns surrounded the
building. The large rectangular
hearing room in the $1,000,000
YMCA building was jammed.
Ninety correspondents filled eight
rows and Jewish and Arab wit
nesses were in the first two, al
though carefully separated by
the central aisle.

By the Associated Press.
The House Labor Committee to-
day approved legislation in line
with President Truman's recon-
mendation that the United States
Employment Service remain under
Federal control until July /, 1947.
The vote to send the measure to
the House floor was 13 to 8.
Mr.. Truman, in December, vetoed
legislation calling for cutbacks Of
over $4,000, 100000 in appropria-
tions and spending authorizations,
because Congress had tackled on a
rider calling for the USES trans
fer, sought by many State admin

Before voting to report the bill
embracing the Presidents proposals,
the Labor Committee defeated, 9
to 6, a bill by Representative Dirk
sen, Republican, of Illinois which
stipulated that USES be returned
to the States in 80 days.
BY tie vote, 8 to s, the commit.

Vordomon, Trumon Naval Aide,
Is Named to Federal Reserve

President Truman today named
his naval aide, Commodore James K
Vardaman, jr., to a 14-year term as
a member of the Board Of Governors
of the Federal Reserve Board. He
is to succeed John K. Mckee, who is
resigning, effective February /.
At the same time, the President
nominated Vice Admiral Alan G.
Kirk, a member Of the Navy General
Board, to be Ambassador to Belgium
and Minister to Luxembourg. He
will succeed Charles Sawyer, former
Democratic national committeeman
from Ohio, who relinquished the
diplomatic post January /.
Commodore Vardaman, a son Of
the late Senator from Mississippi, Is
a resident of st. Louis and an old
friend of the President.
According to White House sources
Commodore Vardaman has had
about as years Of banking expe-
rience and was originally rendered

The budget allots the Civil Service
Commission $235 ,273 900, compared
to the $264, ,000, 900 authorized last
year. One reason for ..his years
decrease is the sudden ending of the
war last year. The 1946 fiscal ap-
preparation was based on the as
sumption that the war would cen
tinue through the year.
The other reason Is the sharp
slash in administrative expenses in
personnel placements and investi-
cations, a sure sign that employ
ment in the Government will drop
,heavily in the next year-and-a-half.

Hundreds of Washingtonians
arrived at work late this morn

snarled traffic in many sections
and jammed streetcars and
buses with passengers who left
automobiles at home.
A more serious condition was
averted by the rising temperature
which by 7 am. was turning a nights
accumulation of snow, sleet and
freezing rain into slush.
Cautious driving through rain
freezing on windshields precluded
all but minor accidents, but many
drivers were forced to bypass GUS
tomary routes to proceed over less
hazardous ones.
Air Operations Shut Down.
Ranging along the seaboard from
New England to Virginia, and
through much of the territory east
of the Mississippi, the snow and sleet
shut down operations at National

no promise of resumption of all
