Britons See ReshuffIinq In Cabinet
 Three Top Men
 Not Expected
 To Be Touched

London, Oct. CUP J. h. formed sources said today that 8 British Cabinet shuttle designed to strengthen and streamline the gov ernment without materially affect ing it's top leadership was sched- uled to be announced within 24 hours.
 The scheduled reorganization, re- vising the functions of certain min istries and injecting new blood into the cabinet, was not expected to touch in any basic sense Prime Minister Clement R. Attlee, Foreign Secretary Ernest Bevin, and Herb ert MorrisSion, Lord President of the Council.
 Although the top half dozen of the Labor Government were expect ed to stay in the Cabinet, specula- ton revolved around the possibility that some of them would land in new positions.
 The structural changes in the Cabinet were understood to be im- portant enough to warrant the is- suance of white paper, expected to be forthcoming from No. 10 Downing Street tonight.
 Attlee was understood to be es- tablishing defense ministry, with A. V. Alexander, now First Lord of the Admiralty, getting the portfolio and full cabinet rank with it. The position has been held by the prime minister in the governments of Att lee and Winston Churchill.
 Whitehall gossiped that the de- fense ministry would be empowered to coordinate the efforts of the Ad- miralty, War Office and Air Min istry, all three of which were ex- pected to be continued. A defense ministry as such did not exist in the Cabinet until Churchill estab- lished it and assumed the post dur ing the war.
 Another expected change was the elevation of the food ministry from departmental rank to full Cabinet status. The ministry has been a difficult spot for the Laborites ever since they took office a year ago last Summer.

were Mayor John s. Monagan, Les CT E. Young, chairman of the Wa ,erbury Housing Authority, and John Cianci, executive director ot
 he WHA. The meeting was sched- lied for 80 P M.
 Before leaving today Mayor Mon agan told The Democrat that Gov. Raymond E. Baldwin's offer to pro- vide the city with one-haf the re- quested $150,0OO for maintaining the 48 units will not be sufficient" The Governor announced the offer last night.
 The mayor had requested the State provide $150,0O0 of it's i've million dollar housing emergency fund to permit construction of the 48 units the Federal authorities say they cannot now include with in the original proposed POO unit program for theS city. MT. Wiley had told MT. Young that reduction of the project by the aforemen- toned number of units would re- duce Federal costs by approximately S145, ,000.
 The Mayor said that he had re- quested $150,0O0 in full so as to per- init the city to refund the Federal authorities. The State now has two million dollars of its fund remain ing.
 MT. Young today told The Demo- crat that he had received promises from Senators Brien McMahon CD and Thomas Hart (R) to press for relief of the situation affecting Fed eral funds. Telegrams had been forwarded the solons by MT. Young at the request of Mayor Monagan as soon as the FPHA's reduction was first reported.
 The reduction in housing units has been effected by the FPHA throughout the State with most communities being harder hit than Waterbury. Waterbury's original share of the New England program called for 200 units created by means of remodeling barracks now located at Westover Field, The city has already expended $49, 900 to grade the Hamilton Heights site for the units, plus installation of sew CTS and water mains.
 The local Housing Authority was the first in Connecticut to request use of idle barracks to alleviate the housing situation

Hickam Field, Hawaii, Oct. A. (UP)-The Army Super-fortress "Pacusan Dreamboat" took off to- day on a 10,0OO-mile nonstop flight over the North Pole to Cairo, Egypt.

 Co-pilot t.-Col. Beverly H. War ren, Omaha, Neb., was at the con- trols when the Superfort took off. Weather conditions were reported ideal along the Great Circle route.
 Col. c. S. Irvine, plane com- mander, St. Paul, Neb., a veteran of several long distance hops, esti- mated it would take about 4S hours to complete the flight.

within 15 days and the worst acci- dent in commercial aviation since the German dirigible Hindenburg exploded at Lakehurst, N. J., May 6, 1887, killing 36 persons.
 The crash occurred early yester- day when the four -engined Douglas transport Erie" plunged into the side of 1900-foot hill 12 miles east of Harmon Field. The plane, bound for Berlin, had taken of a few minutes earlier after a refuelling stop at Harmon Field.
 The investigators sought to de- termine principally why Capt. Will liam Westerfeld, Patchogue, N Y, pilot of the ship, had failed to gain sufficient altitude to clear the hill. The plane crashed about 75 feet from the top, witnesses said. The plane, its tanks freshly filled with high octane gasoline, burned furiously, leaving only a patch of twisted, blackened metal in dark ened hole in the woods. All of its occupants were burned beyond rec ognition.
 Soldiers of the Air Transport Command guarded the wreck until the investigators arrived. The party of Investigators, which left here early today, included Thomas Mo- Grath, official of the Civil Aviation Department of the Newfoundland government; Thomas c. Gentry, chief medical officer for American Overseas AirlineS; James G. Flynn, Jr., operations vice-preSident of AOA, and Capt. James Y. Craig, superintendent of flight operations for the airline.
 Officials said they had not deter mined whether the bodies of the victims would be returned to the United States for burial But in view Of the rough terrain in which the crash occurred, it was believed they would be buried near the scene of the wreck, following a precedent set a little more than a week ago when the 26 victims of the crash ot a Sabena (Belgian) Airlines plane were buried in the woods p miles from Gander.
 All of the victims were Ameri- cans. Fourteen women, including the hostess, Margaret Burleigh, 22 New York City, were killed in the crash. Many of the women were enroute to Germany to join their husbands. Five of them were &C., companled by children.

Truman Asked ID
Safeguard Civil
niqhis In Tenn.
NEW YORK CITY-(WDL)-

NEW YORK CITY-(WDL)-
President Truman has been asked
by the Workers Defense League
to safeguard civil rights of
Negroes in Columbia, Tenn,
where on February rs state troop
ers fired unfortunately through
out the Negro section and three
days later machine-gunned to
death two of 101 Negroes held in
city jail.
Pointing out that U. S. Attorney
Horace Frierson, Columbia citi-
zen, put in charge by U. S. At
torney Tom Clark, had failed to
impress local and state officials
that civil rights must be main
tanned, the League urged Presi-
dent Truman to call upon Clark
to appoint someone capable of
doing so.
AS precedent, the League re-
called that President Roosevelt
in l943 called upon U. S. Attorney
General Francis Biddle to appoint
someone experienced in race re.
lations problems to investigate
the beating of Roland Hayes
Negro singer, in Georgia.
