BY the Assoeiotsd Press

NEW BEDFORD, Mass, Nov. q
A Catholic priests assertion that

reached the needy in Russia" has
been denied by Red Cross official
The New Bedford Standard
Times quoted Edwin H. Powers, ma
tional publicity director Of the Rec
Cross, as saying supplies sent te
Russia were distributed there by
the Alliance of the Red Cross.
The Rev. Leopold Braun, who
spent 13 years in Russia, said in q
speech released Thursday:
Red Cross goods bought with
American donations never reached
the needy in Russia, but were used
to maintain that atmosphere OF
totalitarian domination"
The New Bedford newspaper
printed Mr.. Powers reply, stating
Contrary to what Father Braun
said, the American Red Cross did
not sign a contract with the Russian
government making the latter sole
distributor of Red Cross supplies to
Russia.
Red Cross headquarters in Wash
ington never received word from ou1
representatives in Russia that sup
plies were not going to those fol
whom they were intended.
mo clothing was sent by the Red
Cross to Moscow where Father
Braun was located because the need
was not so great there as in the

Maj. Gen. James M. Bevans had re-

associate said:
Gen. Bevans will cooperate to
the fullest with the inspector gen.

like to see this matter cleared up as
much as any one else. You can be
sure that those are the generals
sentiments"
Gen. Bevan's home is at Garden
City, Long Island, N. Y.
The reports concerning Gen
Bevans originated in testimony by
Col. Jack w. Durant at the court
martial of Maj. David Watson this
week that Gen. Bevans had "ac-
cepted" a silver pitcher as "souve-
mir" from Kronberg Castle. It was
from Kronberg Castle, an officers

Japs Fear Enforcement
OF Macarthur Purge Order
By the Associo.ed Press

TOKYO, Nov. 2.-Japanese polit-
ical, economic and publishing circles
stirred uneasily today over re-
ports that Gen. Macarthur ultra
nationalist purge order will be en-
forced strictly.
Rigid application of the directive
would shake Premier Yoshida's Con-
servative cabinet, dethrone many OF
Japan's top industrialists and pos
sibly change the complexion of a
majority of the nations newspapers.
Many top-ranking International
lists lost their Offices shortly after
the purge order was issued last
January. Then enforcement was
relaxed while the government strug-
gled with many economic and other
problems and passed a new con-
stitution.
Many Japanese predict that pro-
mitigation of the new constitution
tomorrow will signal a renewed
purge.
Publishing circles especially are
showing anxiety. The purge might
remove many men whom liberal
Japanese accuse of tanning the
flames Of war and drumming up a
wartime spirit.
The purge also might sweep from
ONCE many civic and rural omcials.

Mercy killing" of persons suffering

Several washington doctors and

terday the Colonial Office had given
instructions for release of several
high Jewish Agency leaders and TOO
other Jews held without charge in

Dewey Says Pledges
Have Been Kept;;Mead
Raises KIan Issue
BY the Associofed Press

NEW YORK, Nov. Gov. Dewey
and Senator Mead were in the final
round today of their contest for
New York's gubernatorial post with
Gov. Dewey defending himself as a
Governor who kept his pledges and
Senator Mead maintaining that the
1914 COP presidential candidate
had failed to enforce laws against
the Ku Klux Klan.
In campaign speeches last night
at White Plains and Yonkers, in
the Republican stronghold of West
chester County, Gov. Dewey said his
administration had kept all cam
paign pledges he made in 1912.
To U.s." he said. "a party platform
and a campaign pledge are solemn
covenants. They are not catch
words and glittering generalities.
We have held the fulfillment of our
promises to be matter of simple
honesty and good faith, for these
are the pillars of good government. "
Lists Fulfilled Promises.
Gov. Dewey added that 1--WE have
translated our words into deeds"
He listed 10 promises he said had
been fulfilled, among them full en-
ploynlent toward winning the war,
business and individual tax reduc-
tions, aid to farmers in the matter
of labor and other shortages, in
creased aid to dependent children,
a highway building program and an
antidiscrimination program for en-
ployment in private industry.
Senator Mead, speaking last night
at the Brooklyn Academy of Music
after a campaign swing through
Westchester County, said an in
vestigation of the Klan ordered by
Gov. Dewey was synthetic and half
hearted" and declared "he failed to
enforce the laws of this State.
Says Issue Is "Soft Pedaled."
The Democratic Senator said the
State Supreme Court had ordered
dissolution of the Klan in New York
and added:
"I can tell you why Dewey soft
pedaled this Klan issue. The rea-
son is the same one which has
caused him always to place the in
terests of the people of New York
second, in order to get support else
where for his presidential ambi-
tons
Senator Mead termed Mr.. Dewey's
treatment of the Klan issue out
rageous" and said: Mr.. Dewey
knows that sinister Nation wide Or
ganizations. reviving the tactics of
the America -Firsters, have stated
openly that they regard any victory
OF the Republican Party over the
Democratic Party as satisfactory to
their interests"
The Democratic candidate said If
elected Governor he would prose
cute to the limits of the law every
member of the Klan."

company rlght from the begin
ming of our history. And it always will be,
because that is the only way anyone can make
money in the meat packing business.
In no other business that I Know of is there
such a narrow margin of possible profit. In the
purchase of livestock, for instance, our buyers
compete with buyers representing $500 meat
packing plants and % $500 other commercial
slaughterers. Then, we sell our products in
competition with the same 5000 slaughterers
with whom we compete when purchasing the
livestock. Because of this constant competitive
pressure from both sides, our profit margins
are very narrow.
Thus, to make money we have to saue money.
Yes-we, too, have to "plan our work and
work our plan" That's why we are forever
checking our operations to increase efficiency
-. to eliminate waste -. to do our job better.
That job is to process and distribute more than
six and one-half billion pounds of meats and
other products each year. Only on such a
volume of business can tiny savings per pound
add up to the profit which
keeps us in business. EM.s;mHseo.
