like the Leagues brief of the Ache
son-Lilienthal Report on the Inter-
national Control of Atomic Energy,
have only one thing in their dis
favor - failing they share with
most League literature. Not
enough people know about them
or that they are available to every
one at cost not more than a dime.
Only 5000 people saw the
Leagues background study of the
Breton Woods proposals, yet this
pamphlet was inserted in the Con-
gressional Record as an example
of how to educate the public on
something as involved as a none
tary issue.
The secret of the Leagues
publishing success is that its
experts are within arms reach.
National Headquarters has only to
run through the membership list
to find a suitable specialist for
almost any publication it dreams
UP. 1t has judges, newspaper
women. lawyers. educators, and
legislators.
ExplAininQ The Atom
WHEN the League wanted a
study on economics. it tapped DR..
Mabel Newcomer, Vassar econo-
mist and National League Board
member. For a moment it was
stumped by its atomic-control
project. 1t seemed unlikely that
any member would be on intimate
terms with nuclear physics. But
Mrs. Allan c. G. Mitchell, wife of a
Manhattan District scientist, was
a founder member of the Executive
Board of Atomic Information and
one of the few women in the country
to know about anything hssion-
able. She wrote the pamphlet.
When the League goes in for
direct action, it lobbies. Legs
lators in City Halls, State Capitols
and Congress generally agree that
its lobbying techniques are as
realistic and formidable as most
of them would care to come up
against. There is no lavish enter
tainment. Lawmakers are not
buttonholed by paid lobbyists.
The Leagues full membership of
81 900 comprises its only lobbyists.
When they turn on the heat,
they do it because of their con-
victions, not for a pay check.
Their method of operation is
determined by the personalities of
individual lawmakers. Leaguers
from California's Twelfth Con-
gressional District know that Rep
resentative Voorhis actually reads
all his mail and that therefore any
letter gets his attention. Another
Congressman is susceptible to
long-distance phone calls from
influential friends. kilograms and
form letters leave certain New
York Representative cold - but

if the folks back home convince
him they want something, he will
play their ball however he may
feel personally. He wrote the New
York City League that although
he was against the British loan,
he was going to vote for it because
he had received a food of thought
full pro-loan letters, stimulated by
the League, from a vast cross
section of his constituency.
Plugging IntexnAtionalism
MOST of the issues calling for
action in the l946-47 League
program are international in scope.
Among them are reciprocal trade,
atomic-energy control and famine
relief - far cries from the weak
and immature League efforts Is
years ago to sponsor the League of
Nations.
The League gets its inspiration
from its chiefs unfagging, selfless
way of life. Despite her preoccupa-
ton with women's affairs, she
gets along we'll with men. Last
autumn she wrote from Quebec
of dinner given by Secretary of
Agriculture Anderson during the
United Nations Food and Agri-
culture Conference (Which she
attended as a member of the U. S.
delegation), There we're present
thirty men and myself"
The League lists many men as
associate members. Leaders such
as Beardsley Ruml, Winthrop
Aldrich and Charles Taft have
joined because they feel there is
no comparable organization for
their own sex.
Anna Strauss wouldn't be
happy if she didn't have some-
thing to fight for. II couldn't
bear to live in that Utopia" she
said of a model IVA community
she visited. "They have no prob
lens to work on there"
ls,ooo. 900 NIissins Votes
In THE future, she proposes to
fight still harder for all American
citizens. The Women's Bureau has
estimated that there are Is, 600, 900
potential new voters among
women. OF them one organizer
says, 1.-The job is not so much to
get women to vote a particular
way. but simply to get them to
vote at all. If any group could do
that, it would tap the major
reservoirs of political power in
the U. S."
Miss Strauss phrases it diff
ferently:
1--WE have paid only lip service
to the importance of the citizen.
Our problem is how to reach
effectively the millions of indi-
viduals who must think and act
upon the important issues of the
day" The End

The Sailor Takes a Wife" is a

from the promise of whirlwind
courtship and a problem of drastic
and immediate adjustment when
the husband receives a medical dis

one surprise to another It's gaiety
and consistently high spirits are
successfully merged with a tempo
of playing and a breadth of appeal
that viii make the picture extrem-

but also older -goers.

Penal Bills Chances
Brighten as Smiths
Opposition Coofs

Prospects for House passage next
Monday OF the Hebert bill to set up a
separate department of corrections
in the District, under the Commits
sioners, to take over control of the
city's penal institutions were bright
er today.
Representative Smith, Democrat,
OF Virginia, head of the Welfare
Subcommittee, who blocked House
action on the measure last week, in
dicated last night he probably would
not contest the bill any further.
This development came after Rep
resentative Hebert. Democrat, of
Louisiana, chairman of the special
House group that probed the series
of jailbreaks, announced he would
wage determined fight for action
on the bill despite any and all oppo-
sition.
1t was sequel also to private
conference with Mr.. Smith by
Chairman Mcmillan of the District
Committee. who sought to bring
about an agreement between the two
determined District committeeman.
Mr.. Smith said his inclination now
was not to oppose the Hebert bill
and that if this emergency measure
were passed there did not seem to
be much point" in going ahead with
his compromise" bill.
Largely as a result of the efforts
of the Virginia legislator, two of the
three Commissioners last Monday
suggested a new bill for reorganiza-
ton of the Board of Public Welfare
to give 1t full authority over all the
welfare institutions, subject to over
all budget control by the Commits
Sioners.

Electric Power Cut
In Northern Virginia
Unlikely for Present

The railroad strike presages no
immediate threat of resumption of
power rationing in Virginia, although
such steps may be necessary if the
cessation of train movements is
prolonged, the State Corporation
Commission announced today.
The only other condition listed
which would bring back power ra-
tioning similar to that in effect
about two weeks ago, would be an
other stoppage of soft coal produc-
ton, the Associated Press reported
1t was estimated that the COM
panies affected by earlier power ra-
tioning, principally Virginia Electric
& Power Co., which serves 63 of
Virginia's 100 counties, and Brad
dock Light & Power Coz serving
part of Arlington, could operate an
other 10 days or two weeks without
being in any worse position insofar
as fuel is concerned than they were
when .rationing originally was or
dered midnight May 9.
The limitations on power usage
were continued in force for five and
a half days. All restrictions. with
the exception Of the brown-out on
decorative and other similar non.
essential lighting, were lifted after
the beginning of the two-week soft
coal truce, but the commission
warned at that time that resump-
tion of the coal strike would mean
renewed rationing, perhaps ever
more severe than the first.
Interruption of rail service had
the double threat of not only stop
ping coal deliveries but also Of re-

Air Travellers Move on Regular
Schedule in Normal Airport Duv

Airlines operating out of Wash
ington National Airport today were
moving all passengers who had
made the usual reservations and an
nounced that only an excessive
amount of Government priority
cargo or an order to carry all first
class mail by plane will seriously
curtail passenger traffic.
The airport itself outwardly had
an everyday appearance.
The greatest effect of the railroad
strike on the airlines here was on
communications and by midmorning
it was almost impossible to reach
any of the airline Offices by tele-
phone.
American Airlines placed extra
workers on its switchboards and at
the information desks. Most in
quiries, American said, are from peo-
pie who already have reservations
and who want assurance that their
flights within the next few days will
not be Cancelled. This depends upon
the volume of priority cargo, was the
reply.
Incoming calls for space amount
ed to holiday rush level, Transconti-
mental & Western Airlines reported,
and passengers said it resembled the
Christmas rush of last December.

Safeway Negotiations
To Be Resumed Monday

Officials of Safeway Stores, Inc,
and Retail Grocery Clerks Local
639, AFL, failed to reach agreement
on new contract negotiations yester-
day. Talks will be resumed Monday
at the call of United States Con-
clliator James Holden.
Mr.. Holden met with the officials
yesterday at the Office of Frank
Sheehan, company labor relations
officer, 804 Seventeenth street NV.
A company official said the only
issue standing in the way of settle
ment involves union demands for
a one-week vacation after one years
service, and two weeks after three
years. The firm asks the vacation
clause remain the same as in a con-
tract which expired April l, provid-
ing for weeks vacation for one
years service and two weeks after
five years work.
Pay increases already accepted in
the new contract call for increases
from S28 to $50 for first-year clerks,
and from SAL to $44 each week for
top wages.
About 300 members of the union
voted at meeting Tuesday at Turn
er's Arena to strike on June 4 unless
demands are met. The employees at
present are working under terms of
the expired contract.

calls, far in excess of the normal
load OF recent days.
A woman who appeared at the
lines city ticket Office carrying a
bundle under her arm asked hope
fully for a seat to Dayton, Ohio.
When told nothing could be done
for her she appeared less concerned
over her own lot than that of her
bundle. She said it contained two
pounds of butter she.planned to give
to relative.
United Airlines said that, subject
to order of the ODT, reservations of
all passengers already made or sub
sequently booked will be subject to
cancellation up to departure time or
en- route.
William A. Patterson, president Of
United, said, Like the other airlines,
United will do all possible to help
meet this emergency and to move
essential commodities. All our IA
cilities and personnel will be devoted
to the job"
United has been operating at near
capacity despite recent additions to
schedules as new planes have be-
come available, Mr.. Patterson said.
Thus there seems little hope that
the company can accommodate any
substantial volume of passenger
traffic diverted from rail to air, hs

Ex-SaiIor Held for Jury

Clarence Craddock, 1S, dis

waving preliminary hearing before
Municipal Court Judge Walter j.
Casey on a charge of stealing a car
belonging to Norman Bowles of
7704 Takoma avenue, Takoma Park,

Police said they would present di-
rectly to the grand jury two other
charges-one, the theft of 376 pairs
of nylon hose which were in the
trunk of Mr.. Bowles' car and the
other, unauthorized use of another
automobile on the same day. They
are searching for another man in
connection with the car thefts, they
said.
Mr.. Bowles' car has not been
found, according to police, but the
other, belonging to Morris Singer of

Parents Hearing Delayed
On Delinquency Charges

The case of mother and father
both charged with contributing to
the delinquency of three of their
own children, all under IA, was con-
tinued until May 81 by Judge Fay
L. Bentley yesterday. 1t Is the first
case of its kind in the history of
the Juvenile Court, attaches said.
The parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Alfred
Craft, were held in $1,000 bond each
pending court appointment of law
yer for the husband and the re-
tention of counsel by Mrs Craft.
The juvenile bureau said the fam
lily had no permanent home since
being evicted from their apartment
in the 200 block of E street NV. last
month. They said charges were
Z based on the fact the parents had
failed to provide suitable home and
had abandoned the children. A NOR.
ais charge also is involved, they
added.

Drivers, Owners
Urge District
Taxiicab Limit
Secretary Of PUG
Opposes Proposal
At House Hearing

Legislation limiting the number
OF taxis in Washington was urged
today before House District sub
committee by representatives of the
cab owners and drivers, who con-
tended the drivers were not making
decent living under present condi-
tlons and some were turning to
illegal ways of increasing their in
comes.
E. j. Milligan, executive secretary
OF the Public Utilities Commission,
said members Of that body opposed
any limitation at present, although
concedlng such measure may be
necessary in the future.
He represented the views of Brig,
Gen. Gordon R. Young, who was
unable to be present, and Chair
man Flanagan, who is i'll.
Opposed by WOmen's Club.
The legislation also was opposed
by Mrs. Lester w. Wright, repre-
senting the District Federation of
Women Clubs. She said the taxi
companies were not yet filling tele-
phone Calls, even in urgent cases.
and the public was not getting
adequate service.
Edwin A. Glenn, president of the
Silver Fleet. said the present situa-
ton, with more than 1000 taxis on
the streets, was ''deplorable. The
average driver can't take in enough
to meet his expenses and make a
living. he added.
Since the United Taxicab Drivers
was organized in 1941, Mr.. Glenn
said, it has made every effort to keep
out undesirable drivers, who used to
traffic illegally in women and liquor
During the war, he said, the indus
try was exceptionally clean, but this
situation is changing, and drivers,
unable to make living today, are
going outside the law to take in
extra money.
Large Proportion Cited.
The McGehee bill giving the PUG
authority to set a limit on the num-
her of cabs was urged by John Rog-
ers Peters, president of the United
Taxicab Drivers. He cited figures
showing the District has one cab for
IA persons, the largest proportion
OF any large city. New York, for ex-
ample, has one cab for every STA
and Chicago one for every l ,132.
Chairman Mcmillan asked why it
was SO hard to get a taxi at Union
Station. Mr.. Peters replied that the
Diamond Cab Co. had the conces-
sion inside the station and that
other cabs were kept out of the
area. If all could get in, he said,
the service would be adequate.
Harry C. Davis, representing Dia-
mond cabs, denied that the service
was inadequate at the station, con-
tending cabs outside his organiza-
ton made thousands of trips there
every week without interference.
Jack H. Royer, jr., president of
the Combined Cab Service, Inc,
urged the legislation as a measure
OF justice to drivers and-to the in
dustry.
