Union Dissension Report
Denied by Norfolk Group

NORFOLK, Va, Oct. 10 (P'.-M
E. Braden, chairman of the Hamp-

Masters, Mates and Pilots Union
said yesterday that I'VE have heard
no reports of dissension in the un-
ion' and that all local members OF
the union "are cooperating very
we'll" in the strike.
Commenting on story in the
Ledger-Dispatch which quoted a
group of union members as being
dissatisfied with the continuation OF
the strike, Mr.. Braden said Il don't
say that some one didn't say it, but
I do not believe that any delegation
of the Masters, Mates and Pilots OF
the Marine Engineers Beneficial
Association made such a state
ment."
The Dispatch said q group
of the striking mates, who asked to
remain anonymous, made these
statements to a reporter:
Unless the strike is settled within
a reasonable length Of time there
will be no engineers and mates
doing picket duty here
The whole tieup is Communists
inspired" and ''it seems as If this
union is being run from the shore.
Their views are the same as those
of go per cent of the marine en-
gineers and mates" who are on the
beach" here as result of the strike
and they wish to know why there
has been no settlement"
Some increase in pay Is in order
but in continuing the strike. Harry
Martin, East Coast union chief, is
representing only 10 per cent" OF the

Stocks Drift UnevenIy;
Traders Await Cue
From Commodities
By Victor Eubonk
Assoeioted Pres. Financial Writer

NEW YORK, Oct. 19.-The stock
market today tried for selective
recoveries but most leaders failed
to attract worthwhile support and
dealings were among the smallest
for the last year or so.
The ticker tape loafed after a
fairly active opening. While mod
est advances persisted at the close,
declines of fractions to point or
SO were widely distributed. Numer-
Gus pivotals were unchanged. Trans
fers for the short session ran to
around s350,000 shares.
Recently slumping commodities
brokers suggested, served to accen-
tuate speculative and investment
caution. Some customers trimmed
accounts or stood aside to await
further effects of price decontrols
on business statistics.
Another climb of industrial inven-
tories, it was said, was viewed by
analysts as warning factor. The
foreign picture also inspired con-
Servatism Motors had to contend
with the move of automotive unions
to reopen wage contracts.
In the backward shift were Beth
1ehem, Chrysler, Goodyear, U. S.
Rubber, International Harvester
Westinghouse Electric, New York
Central, Southern Railway, Du Pont
and Allied Chemical. Resistant were
Texas Co., Chesapeake g. Ohio,
Philip Morris and Air Reduction.

how much their backlogs of profits

suggested that policy decision was
needed whether to permit the funds
to be used, for example, to build
golf courses.
The proposed survey will include
the disposition of funds of non
commissioned officers clubs and
messes as we'll.
In accumulated post exchange,
welfare and other non-approprlated
funds, the Army now has total OF
some $3.50, ,0O0, 900, and the advisers
recommended that $30,000,000 or
more be turned into the Treasury
forthwith.
Mr.. Patterson directed that $22,-
600 900 in accumulated profits OF
Army post exchanges be turned over
in the next six months. Other sums
which ultimately will swell the
Treasury,s miscellaneous receipts in
clude the proceeds of the discon-
tinued magazine Yank, estimated at
about s1.500,000, and a $4,000, ,o0o

The latter was accumulated from

Building of golf courses and
swimming pools at Army posts with
officers club funds which were
swollen by wartime transients may
be curbed by the War Department.
An official survey of such funds,
possibly totaling millions of dollars
was included among recommends :
tions made @by an advisory group
and approved by Secretary OF War
Patterson. The War Department
said today they were already being
put into effect.
The group. headed by former
Representative Woodrum Of Vir-
ginia, told Mr.. Patterson that "the
unwise spending Of this money
could cause adverse criticism OF
the Army"
| The profits of officers clubs at
| more than 1000 Army posts in the
United States which have been de-
clared surplus have been siphoned
back to the War Department, and
ultimately may be used for various
Army welfare purposes.
| More than 800 posts are still func-
tioning, however, aside from those
overseas, and each has one officers
club or more. Without estimating
