Lawyer Elected
From Courf In
Injunction Case

New York-(FP).-An open display
of anti-labor prejudice was presented
| by state supreme court Judge here
Jan. 81 as hearings opened on Western
Unions application for an injunction
to end mass picketing by the Ameri-
lean Communication Assn. in the
| fourth week of it's strike
When eight lawyers representing
| CIO and AF'L unions and civil liberties
organizations, massed before the
judges bench and asked to be heard
as friends of the defendants, Supreme
Court Justice Aaron Levy contemp-
tuously ordered them to "step aside
| will not listen to you"
One lawyer, who protested, was
elected from thee ourtroom on Levys
orders. This followed an attempt to
bulldoze AGA Council Sam Neuberger
into consenting to reduce the number
of pickets before the hearings even
began.
In strikebreaking speech from the
bench three days earlier when the in
junction case first came up, Levy in
structed police officers to protect all
persons coming in or out Of the struck
Western Union headquarters from mo-
lestation and added: "Private proper
ty is still the law of the land and it
i'm imperative that these rights be
observed"
The injunction asked by Western
Trnion ia "innrecedaptad in itc faro
city" and outlaws everything short of
the strike itself, labor lawyers told
Federated Press. The injunction would
restrain violence and threats of vio-
lence" to scabs by limiting pickets
to four. 1t would also restrain insults
to scabs, use of sound truck to in
struct pickets, picketing of scabs'
homes, interference with WI messen-
ger boys or disturbances in branch |
offices.
The company's first witness, Ralph |
H. Kimball, vice president and labor
relations director, complained that en-
ployes entering the building at 60
Hudson St., were insulted with the
names "rat" and "scab" and that while
he could stand it, it hurt the feelings
of some women employees. The COM
pany said it would present witnesses
of az incidents" including nine of
pickets splitting" on scabs, and show
eel as exhibits records made of the |
pickets' name-calling and the union
officers speeches.
Mass picketlines manned by AGA |
strikers and other ClO unionists con-
tinued to ring the WI building.

78 RoiI Unions
Submit Dispute
To Arbitration

Chicago-(FP).-The major rail-
roads of the nation and Is unions rep
resenting 100000 Of their employees
agreed to submit their wage dispute
to arbitration.
The action automatically disposed
of any immediate strike threat mas
much as the railway labor act pro-
vides that arbitration board findings
are binding once the parties have
| agreed to arbitration.
Signing the agreement were repre-
sentatives of three of the Big Five .op-
Grating brotherhoods and Is non-oper
ating unions. The other two operat-
ing brotherhoods, the Bro. of Rail-
road Trainmen and the Bro. of Loco
motive Engineers (both unaffiliated)
have rejected arbitration and are plan
ming a nationwide strike vote.
Announcement of the arbitration
agreement was made by Chairman H.
H. Schwartz of the Natl. Mediation
Board, which has been attempting to
mediate the dispute since Dec. 18.
Schwartz, with the concurrence of the
two other NMB members, George A.
Cook and Frank P. Douglass, said:
"This is the first instance in which
a group of employers of the magni-
tude of the American railroads and
such a large number of employees have
voluntarily submitted the issue of pay
rates to arbitration! IT is another dem
onstration that collective bargaining
is still functioning."
The three operating brotherhoods-
the Bro. of Locomotive Firemen &
Enginemen, Order of Railway Con-
ductors (both unaffiliated) and
Switchmen's Union (AFL )--are seek
ing $3.50 daily increase. The nom
operating unions are asking an in

Miss Munds To Retire

New Hanover county is losing a
valued official and the people a great
friend in the retirement of Miss Co.
lumbia Munds which is to become eff
fective on Monday. For twenty-seven
years this faithful and admirable
woman has directed public nursing
under the Consolidated Board of
Health-the first and only person to
fill this important position.
Following graduation at Post Grad
uate in New York, Miss Munds took
up her task as nurse supervisor here.
In the intervening years New Han
ove county has benefited, far beyond
the knowledge of many old residents,
in the thousand and n ways a COM
petent nurse gives her services. DR..
A. H. Elliot, the county's health Of
ficer calls her a splendid leader.
Now, she says, she proposes to
"just rest" for a while, without any
UeIIulLS pldllS IOL Vic luIuIG. OuIoly
no one better deserves the privilege
of resting. Everyone hopes that she
will carry out her present intention,
but we are doubtful if her rest period
will be as long as her friends could
wish.
1t is an outstanding characteristic
of people who have lived busy lives
that they car endure just so much
relaxation and no more. For her sake
we could wish it might be different,
but the probability is that Miss Munds
will find means to resume her service
to suffering humanity later on, and
find her greatest happiness in so doing.
The Star extends it's best wishes
to Miss Munds, in retirement, with
the same sincere interest it has al
ways felt in her work.

DR.. w. H. Milton

Although DR.. w. H. Milton, rector
of St. James Episcopal church for
twenty-seven years, had lived in Balti-
more, ave for visits to Wilmington,
from the time of his retirement in
1886, and consequently had been more
or less out of touch with his friends
here, his death on Wednesday after a
lingering illness is felt as a personal
loss by many. For Doctor Milton
had woven his fine personality into the
human and spiritual fabric of the parish
he served so long.
Possessed of unlimited capacity for
work, he was called into conference in
1919 when the Council of the Episco-
pal church was being formed and was
selected to head the Field Department
of the Council, which has since been
renamed the Department of Promotion.
He became the first executive secretary
of the department and conducted it's
activities for some years, without Civ
ing up his passionate at st. James, divid-
ing his time between New York and
Wilmington.
st. James parish has long been
active in missionary effort, but under
Doctor Millions leadership this work
was greatly advanced. During his last
sixteen years at st. James the parish
contributed more than a quarter million
dollars to missionary and general funds
of the Episcopal church. St. James is
notable, in no small part to his lead
ership, for spending more money out
side the parish than in it.
1t was typical of Doctor Milton's
personal philosophy that he should
move away from the parish upon his
retirement so that his continuing pres
ence should not be a source of embar-
rassment to his successor. Although
MS friends had persuaded him to re-
sumo residence in Wilmington, it was
not until the influx Of new population
incident to the war had created a hous-
ing problem and satisfactory quarters
were not available.

Fort Caswell Park

1t would be difficult indeed for the
state to select a site better adapted
for a recreation park than old Fort
Caswell, below Southport. In fact it's
development for this purpose has long
been a cherished hope of residents of
all southeastern North Carolina and
far beyond.
Governor Cherry's endorsement of
the project, announced by Bruce Eth
erldge, held of the State Department
OF Recreation and Development, en-
courages belief that no time will. be
lost in starting the states undertake
ing once the property is turned back
to the government by the Coast Guard
which occupied it throughout the war
and is still in possession. Reports
that the Navy might apply for it to
use as an experimental station are
unknown in the Charleston headquar-
tiers of the Sixth Naval district.
Fort Caswell, fully developed and
improved, "a form another valuable
INK IN the states coastal playground
which is gradually coming into it's
as it's advantages become more
widely known. Speed the day wher
1t takes its place among leading re.
sorts along the south Atlantic.

Stadium Responsibilities

The Legion Stadium, owned and
operated by the County and absorbed
by the City when eastern and southern
suburbs were annexed by vote of the
people last November 6, presents re-
sponsibilities to both County and City
governments.
Because it is now within the city
limits it is the Councils duty to see
that proper police protection is afford
ed patrons of baseball games against
rowdyism. There are many complaints
of misbehavior during all games
played on the diamond-and "misbe-
havior" is a studied understatement.
Victims of it apply other more illumi-
mating words. A police squad should
be on duty before, during and after
all games to protect orderly, self-re-
specting patrons.
Because it is owned by the county
it is the Commissions duty to keep
the approaches and parking space, no
less than the playing field, in good
order. There are traffic blockades
when spectators seek to depart by a
after games, which could be prevented
if the space available for cars were
defined by white lines and attendants
on duty to see that all vehicles were
parked properly and lined up in even
columns when leaving.
These are steps that should not be
longer delayed in the interest of safety
and public comfort. Of course, it has
long been hoped that the Commission
would replace the tumble-down fence
along the highway with an ornamental
substitute, but perhaps that is too much
to expect from an i%mpecunious county
government which only has some fifty
dollars in the general fund
for June and a new budget coming on.

Seeing a screed about Miss Dixie
Dunbar on The Star society page
a day or so ago, l set out yester-
day on the beach at Wrightsvllle
to see if l couldn't find the young
lady myself.
There are any number of ques-
tons I've been saving up for a long
time to ask glamour girls so that
l could pass the answers, if any,
along to you. And Miss Dunbar, I
figure, rates right at the top among
the glamour girls.
Too, the last glamour girl I in
terviewed was the late Miss Texas
Guinan. As you will realize, the
admittance of such an interview
dates me since Miss Guinan has
been dead for a great many years.
But, continuing the depression,
Miss Guinan was almost a legend
while she was still living. And
since her death a movie has been
made of her life in which the bub-
bling Miss Betty Hutton played the
part of Miss Guinan.
Miss Guinan was quite a charact-
er and, although she must have
been in her fifties when l met her,
1 thought she had whatever it
takes to stand right in line with
the glamour girls of this day and
time.
Too, Miss Guinan had something

mour queens have. She had a
sincerity that was refreshing. She
the gal, you recall, who clip
ped the customers of their money
in her night club and then made
them like it by saying Hello
Suckers!" to them, one and all.
In our interview, incidentally,
Miss Guinan told me that she had
offered to exchange places, for a

Numerous tournaments that we
discontinued during the wal are
now being revived. One of the
war casualties vas the Southern
Appalachian tournament, formerly
held annually at Asheville, N. C.
This tournament will be revived at
the George Vanderbilt hotel in that
city on Aug. %, "a, and Is. While
it will attract principally the best
player; of the south, a number of
New York and Philadelphia stars
are expected to attend.
An interesting bid came up the
last time l was in Asheville. Some
players might suggest an opening
bid of three hearts with the. West
hand. That would be all right
without the king of clubs, but with
that card, there is a sound open
ing bid in the hand.
When North doubled one heart,
South was forced to bid, and
North's supporting bid of three dia-
monds set South to thinking. The
double indicated strength in
spades, and North also showed a
fit in diamonds. South therefore
decided to bid three spades on his
three-card suit.
In the play West cashed two
high hearts and continued with
the ace, East having played the
six and four, showing out. If South
had made the mistake of ruffing
the third heart with the jack of
spades, he would have lost the on
tract. His correct play was to dis
card dummy's losing club.
The discard of the losing club
protected declarer against a four
two break in trumps, ana they
actually were. East of course re-
fused to trump the heart also.
When the fourth heart was led.
declarer was able to trump it in
his own hand, pick up the adverse
trumps, and dummy's five dia-
monds and his ace of clubs gave
time 10 tricks.

Editorial Comment
WILMINGTON PORT

The rest Of North Carolina will rejoice
with Wilmington over the announcement
from Washington that work will begin IN
September 1 on a mill1on-dollar dredgino
project to provide Wilmington with a chan,
mel 80 ieet in depth in Cape Fear river to
and from the Atlantic ocean.
Wilmington is some 2C miles .1p stream
from the point where the river enters the
sea. Il shipping volume warrants, the chan
mel may be cut to a depth of IS feet later
on. Present depth of the channel is 80 feet.
The project will be carried out by United
States army engineering corps. Before it
is finished it will likely cost much more
than the 81, 1000, 900 which the federal gov
eminent has already appropriated for the
work.

lina's largest ocean port much more acces

WE HAPPY FEW, by Helen Howe
(Simon &, Sohuefer. 60 II

tollnOn d SchuSter; SZ.75.)
Dorothea Natwick, raised in a
tight little circle Of effete intelli-
gentsia at st. Cuthbert's, a privats
school where her father teaches,
has her chance at three men, and
three proposals. She rejects the
first, accepts the second and then
the third, which alone does not in
volve marriage.
These men represent three dit-
ferent styles of living. Walt Ste
vens is the familiar diamond in
the rough, the western liberal who
is "glad he got to meet you" John
Calcott is the blueblood and gen
tleman, educated, son OF an old
Boston family and himself on the
Harvard faculty; he comes closer
to the Natwicks' f~astidious ideal,
violates Dorothea's upbriaging the
least, and so wins the prize. Cor
don Cavitt wins it, too, with saxo'
phone, Cadillac and vulgarity.
Out of these experiences, the
study of friends and acquaintance
at Harvard, the impact Of World
War II, Dorothea is supposed 10
learn that there's something more
in life than a memory for classical
quotations handy for flirting ana
a facility at the piano. And she
does learn. One by one her three
men reject her, each in his way,
and there's little left for her but
a minor career in musical tnera-
Ply. Walt and John have MADE
good in a sublime and heroic
fashion, but the rest Of her frlenoS
have frittered themselves away IN
drink, extra-marital affairs ana
divorces.
If the lesson is pretty hard on
Dorothea, it is also pretty hard on
us, the readers. Miss Howe is an
intelligent writer, and the subJec;
of the "irresponsibles' s1oJm
work up into a good novel
doesn't.
The Dorothea Gordon sedact.n
scene is done in such amateur,
and unloving, strokes that I fouHa
it embarrassing. though it's one Of
the high spots in the plot. Ana
Waits denunciation, another hlgA
spot, doesn't come off, either.
Everything Miss Howe writes IN
this book is true, but not true to
life, not real.
Or everything is true except
perhaps Dorothea's conversion. ~

the dilettante groups had become
persuaded, by the bitter facts o.
the last decade, of the futu'fy OF

THE LAND

We are not done with Palestine.
T. is still, as it always has been,
a problem land, a battlefield OF
contending forces. The most re-
cent attempt. by an Anglo-Ameri-
can commission. to find a solution,
has ended in failure. 1t raises
more questions than it answers.
And ii is the first step toward an
involvement of America in a stu
alton which should have been left
to Great Britain.
Strife and bIoodshed are sure to
continue and increase. Those of us
who know well the local conditions
are the ones most discouraged by
the situation in the Land that
three religions call holy"
Baffled by the failure of state
craft to find a solution, we turn
to the Power that has hitherto
wrought wonders in the Land
which once knew a P~entecost.
Only a sweeping spiritual revival
can change the hearts of the war
ring elements. Surely the best ap-
preach to the Palestine problem is
the prayer route. with God all
things r possible"
