The White House announced today the nations strike-bound meat pack ing industry would be seized Satur- day but at the same time the threat of possible national railroad tie- up was dumped on the troubled labor scene
 White House Press Secretary Charles c. Ross announced the De- partment of Agriculture with the aid of the War Department. If nec- assary,' would seize the meat pack ing plants and operate them.
 Effect of the seizure is not known, immediately A government official who declined to be quoted, said the seizure was being delayed three days in an effort to persuade l93,000 striking CIO meat workers to work for Federal boss Labor Depart mant sources said the 10000 striking AFL meat workers had agreed to go back to work under the plan.
 Some meat packers In Chicago ex- pressed the belief new supplies would be moving on normal schedule with in five days after operations are re- sumed. if the CIO workers return.
 NeW Labor Threat
 The threat of national railroad strike--unless settlement is reached
 came from the Brotherhoods of Railroad Trainmen and Of Locomo- tive Engineers, in support of de- mands for higher wages and better working conditions. The T'rainmen announced a strike vote would be taken at once.
 An order for seizure of the meat industry had been hinted at by Washington sources for several days.
 In Washington, Ross said the ad- ministration still had no immediate plans for further action in the steel strike. When asked whether there were any plans for Henry Kaiser to be brought into the picture in an effort to settle the steel strike, he replied, T know of no such plans.'
 Kaiser last week signed contract with the stockholders for his Cali fcrnia steel plant.

The W ashington Merry Go Round
By DREW PEARSON

WASHINGTON-A very peculiar thing has happened to Bob Hanne- gan, the man who more than any other single person is responsible for putting Truman where he is today. The longer Hannegan stays in Washington, the more prestige and respect he commands-every- where except around the White House.
 A lot of people who thought Hannegan was just hack St. Louis politician have now changed their minds. He has grown on them. They have watched him fight vigorous back-stage battles and he has always been on the right side He is honest, fearless, and usually right.
 But while everyone expected Hannegan to become the No. l strong man of the Truman Ad- ministration, inside fact right now is that he is having a hard time trying to retain any real voice in White House policy decisions.
 There are two reasons for this.
 l. Hannegan made the mistake of accepting the Postmaster Gener- alship, which means long, hard hours and mass of detailed work, which, coupled with his chairman ship of the Democratic National Committee, makes him about the busiest man in Washington
 2. Hannegan has become Tru- mans No. l "No-man," and a No man" is never popular. Every Pres ident is inclined to get surrounded

SOVIET NEWS AGENCY STIRS
 up TROUBLE
Criticism of Military Com mand in South Korea
 Wrong Slant

TOKYO, Jan. 23--A spokesman Ut General MaeArthur's Head quarters said today an assertion by Tass. official Soviet News Agency. that the U s. Military Command m Southern Korea was inspiring 'rcactionary" protests against the Moscow conference is part of "a definite program to discredit Gen. oral Macarthur and force further changes in the present occupation policies and command"
 While Southern Korea is under direct command of It. Gen. John R. Hodge, it is included in Mac Arthur's command. The Russians control Korea north of the 3eth parallel.
 Tass assaiIed the reactionary press of southern Korea for al- ledgedly carrying on an anti-So- yiet propaganda campaign and for attacking the decision reached at Moscow recently by the United States, Britain and Russia to set up five year trusteeship for Korea.
 Tt is known that orders have gene cut to all opposition forces, including the so-cailed party mem bcrs in Japan to do their utmost to discredit Macarthur his spokes- man said.
 Tt is a depiorable condition when some dissident press of the world continues to incite and fo- ment international mistrEst. Now more than ever every effort should be bent toward understanding and agreement.
 Tt can be expected that continu- ing, critical attacks will flow from the left wing press of the United States as well as from others out side the United States.

SHORT GIVES NEW LIGHT ON pREWAR DOPE
Army Intelligence Heads Lacked Information
 on Jap Strength

WASHINGTON, Jan. 23.-Maj. Gen. Walter c. Short today gave Congressional investigators evidence which he said showed that two days before Pearl Harbor the Chief of Army Intelligence did not believe an open split with Japan was near.
 The 1e41 Chief of Intelligence was Mai. Gen. Sherman Miles.
 Short, Army commander at Pearl Harbor when the Japanese struck Dec. T, 194l, read into the record of the Senate House inquiry this message which he said Miles sent to Panama on Dec 5. 194l
 United States-J Japanese relations strained Will inform you if and when severance of diplomatic rela- tions are imminent"
 The message caused stir among members of the Senate-House inves- tigating committee. Senator Lucas D-Ill.) told reporters he thought 1t was "one of the most important de- VelCpmenIS yet.
 Message Issue
 Senator Ferguson (R-Mich) said it was important in the inquiry to have messages Washington sent to other places than Hawaii. He said the message in question would have been most important in the cross examination of Miles, who has been a witness.
 Short also handed another new untn-now document to the commit tee. as-s
 It was an extract from testimony by Maj. Gen. Hayes A. Kroner, 1941 Chief of Intelligence branch un-

FIVE POWERS
 IN DEADLOCK
 LONDON MEET
Can iAgree on Selection of S20,00O- Year Sec-
 fary General
(BY JOHN Nj. HIoHTowER)

LONDON, Jan. 23.-The top men of the five principal powers in the United Nations met secretly in the office of Secretary of State James F. Byrnes today and were reported to have failed again to agree on a candidate for Secretary General of the new Security Organization
 The negative result of the 90- minute meeting led some officials to express fear that the five pow CTS were drifting toward dead- lock on the question, made more acute by charges of political inter- ference made by Iran against Rus sia and by Russia against the Bri- tlsh in Greece and Indonesia
 American officials had hoped to make swift progress on the situa- ton today, both at the five-power meeting and later informal ses- sion of representatives of all II Security Council members, so the new peace organization could be- sin building it's permanent staff.
 The five powers have to agree in crder for the full council to nom mate a man whom the 51-member general assembly may accept or re- ject.
 Two Candidates
 The United States is reported backing Lester Pearson, Canadian Ambassador to Washington. for the s20,000 q year post Russia has been advocating the candidacy of Trygve Lie, Foreign Minister of Norway.
 The meeting, at Mayfair Hotel, was the first such session that has been attended by Adrei Vishinsiy, Soviet Vice Commissar of Foreign Affairs and Chief Russian Dele gate, since the beginning of the UNO conference. Vishinsky arriv- cd in London yesterday.
