Government, Too

ENROLMENT TITLE
Principal Hamilton Ad-
dresses Kiwanis Club
On School Matters

Interesting facts and figures on
New Hanover High school were
presented to the Kiwanis club at
their regular luncheon meeting at
the Friendly cafeteria yesterday
by T. T. Hamilton, Jr., and his
address was much appreciated by
the membership.
Touching on the schools mem-
bership in the Southern Associa-
ton of Colleges and Secondary
schools, the speaker said that New
Hanover High ranks 22nd in the
matter of enrolment in II southern
states and tops all schools of the
state in this department.
Leads In State
Applying this statement, Hamil-
ton pointed out that the local
school with a total enrolment Of
1861 leads Central High of Char
lotte with a total of 1885; r. J..
Reynolds High Of Winston-Salem
with 1,069 and Senior High school
Of Greensboro, with 1908. The
smallest enrolment among sec
ondary schools in the state, he
said is that Of the State Institute
for the Blind with an enrolment
Of Is. The above figures place
New Hanover High the largest in
three states, North Carolina,
South Carolina and Georgia.
The school has been unanimously
approved by the association on the
basis of it's 1945 report and with
without warning or advisories.
Salary Question
Turning to the salary question,
the speaker pointed out that the
maximum salary of a teacher
with a masters degree in this
county is 81, 005. 40 per year, while
that of a teacher with an ABB de-
gree, 81, 802. OF.
Concluding, the speaker pointed
out the many improvements that
have been made to the plant over
the past Jew years ana winch now
represents an expenditure Of close
to 81, 500, 900.
Darst Dinner
Fred Little, reporting on progress
of the Darst testimonial dinner
said that the dinner will be held at
the Cape Fear Country club on
June 10, at 7 p. M, and members
may take their wives OF lady
friends.
David Jones, after a little good
humored persuasion, reported to
President Laney that at least 10
members will attend the district
Kiwanis conference at Goldsboro
next Monday night.
For Registration
Aaron Goldberg made a plea to
his fellow members to step out and
register for the coming city bond
and primary elections, while Henry
| Gerdes walked off with the month
ly attendance prize.
Joe Freeland was a guest OF the
club for the day.

In the last float Miss Charlotte

ATLANTA SUFFERS
With BUSES IDLE
Thousands Walk To Work
As Strike Ties Up All
Transportation

ATLANTA, May 1.-OP-Con.
ci"liators sought Wednesday to
compose contract differences be.
tween the Georgia Power COM
pany and it's 1850 striking trans
p~ortation workers whose walkou'
at midnight Tuesday paralyzed At.
Ianta's public transit system.
While thousands of inconveni.
enced citizens struggled to carry
on business as usual without the
aid of buses or street cars, COM
pany and union officials met in
another attempt to settle the dis
pute.
Slow Speed
When the session recessed for
lunch one Of the conferees said
the discussions were proceeding
"amicably but slowly" Another
added I'VE r making progress"
The strike call went out Just
before the midnight deadline which
marked expiration of the old con-
tract between the power company
and its operators, who are mem
bers of the Amalgamated Associa-
ton of Electric Street Railway and
Motor Coach Employees of America
(AFL).
Refuse Compromise
A six-week period of negotiations
was climaxed yesterday by refusal
of the operators to accept & COM
promise agreement reached Mon
day between the company and the
union.
The compromise, offering a basic
wage OF $1.O5 per hour as COM
pared with the present 81 cents
and the unions original demand
for SLIP, was rejected unanimous
ly by mass vote of the workers.
1t had been submitted to them
without comment by union Of
ficials.
Seek Pensions
So far as was disclosed by COM
pany and union officials, the
principal dispute still involved
union insistance on a new pen
sion plan. The union had asked for
a revised plan to which the work
ers might contribute, in contrast
to the present one supported en-
tirely by the company. On this
issue the company refused to ar
bitrate, saying the pension plan
should not be included in a con-
tract subject to periodic revision.
In the meantime Atlanta was
finding out what it means to lose
a transportation system which
normally carries a daily load OF
about half a million persons, in
Guiding some 5000 school children.
Traffic Jams
Traffic jams, illegal parking
arguments, late arrivals at work,
and absences from school and Of
flee were a few of the results of
the tie-up as 500 street cars, track
less trolleys and buses remained
idle.
The downtown parking situation
came in for caustic comment from
indignant citizens, scores of whom
received tickets from the busy
traffic police. All parking restric-
tons remained in force after city
officials rescinded a previous rul-
ing that they would be lifted in the
event of such an emergency.

Fuller Returns

Federal Conciliator Paul W.
Fuller, who quit the negotiations
last night in disgust over the gov
ernment's handling of the crisis,
was back on the job this morning
at the urgent request of his SUI
periors.
But his attitude was no more
optimistic, and ne told reporters
that he was inclined to blame
both the union and the operators
for prolonging the strike.
Blames Both Sides
They're both wrong because of
this long deadlock" he said.
mot a single I has been dotted
in a new contract"
Fuller limited that the Labor de-
partment experts assigned to the
strike negotiations had been pull
ing in different directions, al
though he emphasized that his dis
satisfaction had nothing to do
with the entry into the dispute of
former Assistant Secretary of La
Dor Edward F. McGrady.
Work AS Team
He said the handling of the
strike has been ALTERED to this ex-
tent-We're going to work as a
team"
Another acknowledgement con-
ference was scheduled for Thurs
day, and boti Fuller and Nc
Grady planned to attend.
Meanwhile, the meager flow of
coal to the nations industries was
cut down further by the action of
$1,000 members of the Progressive
Mine Workers independently -
mostly in Illinois-Who joined the
UNIV strike Wednesday.
That move came in the face of
a blunt warning by the giant U.
5. Steel corporation that its plants,
which account for one-third of the
country's steel output, would be
forced to close completely if the
mines were not reopened within
20 to 80 days.
U. S. Steel said its plants were
scheduled to operate at ASS per
cent of capacity this month, COM
pared with about IS per cent when
the strike began, and it estimated
the shutdown already had cost it
o0O, 600 tons of steel production.
May Hit Milk
AT the same time, Rep. Harold
Kautson, R., Mimi, told the
House that the strike might cause
a widespread shortage of butter
and milk. KnutsoE said Minnesota
has a Today coal supply and that
dairy producers faced a shutdown
when that was exhausted.

Five Man Subcommittee
Starts Work On Grow
ing Document Pile

NEW YORK. May 1. -(P)- A
five-man subcommittee of the
United Nations Security Council
went into its first secret meeting
late Wednesday to take up at
length the charges that the Franco
regime of Spain lnenaces world
peace and shelters Nazis and war
criminals.
Before the Investigators, vino
must report TO the council by
May 81, was a growing pile Of docu-
ments. 1t was learned, however,
that the United States dossier on
Spain still is being assembled by
the State department and probably
would not be submitted for a week
or so.
The subcommittee is made up
Of four delegates-Chairman Paul
Hasluck, of Australia; DR.. Oscar
Lange, of Poland; Henri Bonnet,
Of France, DR.. Pedro Leao Velloso,
Of Brazil, and a member of the
Chinese delegation, DR.. Shihsi Hsu,
sitting in for DR.. Quo Tai-Chi.
In the initial phase they were
known to be studying the charges
made by Lange on April II in his
demand that the United Nations
sever relations at once with Gen
eralissimo Francisco Franco.
Before the subcommittee met,
the Spanish Republicans added
more charges to the pile submitted
to the council by LANCE. The Span
ish Republican observers here
brought forward a cable from their
exiled prime minister, Jose Giral,
charging that $50 persons had been
jailed and mistreated in BARGE
Iona, with Is near death, and that
500 more were mistreated in
AndaluSia.
The Spanish Embassy in Wash
ington declared that charges were
untrue and denied that any prison
ers in Spain had been deprived
of the right of legal defense.
