Jews Quit
 Day Strike

Jerusalem, July 18-(UP)-Pales- tine Jews ended their 15-hour gen. eral strike at midnight and 2,0OO Jewish internees ate their first meal in 48 hours as fears of a serious conflict eased in the Holy Land.
 eThe Exchange Telegraph re-
 ported from Jerusalem that Sir
 Alan Cunningham, the British
 High Commissioner, was flying
 to London for discussion of the
 Palestine situation.
 In mass meeting at Tel Aviv, however, speakers urged continued policy of non-co-operation with Britian. Zalman Rubashov, editor of the Jewish Labor Federation daily newspaper, said there could be no negotiations on the political level so long as duly elected Jewish leaders were imprisoned by the British.
 Most of the speakers at Tel Aviv said they could foresee no order in Palestine until Hagana, the Jewish Agency and the Jewish people no longer are molested and refugees allowed to come here" Others pledged resistance" to any meas ures aimed at dasarming Hagana.

Reps Strikes

Hartford, July l8-CUP)-Buyers' strikes which utilize pickets and other rabble-rousing tactics" were condemned today by Executive Vice-President Norris w. Ford oi the Manufacturers Association oi Connecticut
 Ford declared, this unsound cure-all for imitation could easily influence tempers to the point of dangerous demonstrations which would further divide us into war ring camps at time when the country so desperately needs the united efforts of all groups to best imitation and solve many other diff f1cult domestic and international problems.
 Although I agree with the nec- essity for consumers to exercise control over prices by refusing to buy commodities which are obvi- ously priced higher than necessary to cover increased production and sales costs and provide for a req sonable profit" Ford continued such control should be applied without provocative demonstration by each buyers quiet refusal to purchase such goods"
 Ford warned that if consumers boycott goods offered by the over whelming majority of Wellinten- tioned and legitimate manufactur- CTS, wholesalers or retailers for any other reason than lack of funds they will find no quicker way of creating a depression"

President Plans to Go On Stump
 To Help Party
 InFoII Election
 With Speeches

Washington, July 18-GUP)-Pres- ident Truman said today he would take the political stump actively late this Summer if necessary to help the Democratic Party in the Fall elec- tions.
 The president said he had not made any specific plans for a cam paign tour and his decision would depend on the necessity.
 Asked whether he planned to make several speeches in behalf of the party, MT. Truman said he would if necessary.

 The President gave his endorse ment to Enos Axtell, who is oppos- ing Slaughter for the Democratic 
 MT. Truman's discussion of per- sonalities in Missouri politics began when he was asked at his news con- ference what he planned to do in the Missouri primary - the only primary in which the President had indicated he would take an active part.
 MT. Truman said first that he would go to his home town of h. dependence to vote. Then he was asked whether or not he was s'in- terested" in Slaughter.
 Oppose Him On Measures
 The President smiled and said yes, he was against him because he felt that if Slaughter was right he, the President, was wrong.
 He said that Slaughter as mem Der of the House Rules Committee had opposed every piece of legisla- tion the President had suggested.
 The chief executive said he ex- pectd Robert E. Hannegan to re- main as the national chairman of the Democratic Party.
 The President said he thought Hannegan was a good chairman, that he had no successor in mind, and that he wanted him to stay.

T made one trip to England, but when I came back the brigadier general sent for me, asked me my age and told me was too old. But that doesn't mean I haven't got darn good eyes,"
 Todd says he stays at home while his wife, Jennie, 66, works in a laundry.
 T do the cooking and the clean ing and the washing at home" he said. T take walks, and I go to the grocery store to shop. But could do that without my eyes All I'd need would be a cane"
 Cole thanked Todd and said he would post notices of his offer for every blinded veteran in Michigan to have read to him.
 You really want to do this?" he asked, as Todd prepared to leave.
 "1'd be tickled to death," Todd replied.

Lags in Popular Vote Talmadge Takes Lead In Georgia Primary

Atlanta, Ga, July 16.-UP)- Homespun Eugene Talmadge, who conducted his campaign on a plat form of keeping Georgia "a white mans state,' held a commanding unit vote lead in the race for gov ernor today and appeared to have won the Democratic nomination for fourth term.
 James V. Carmichael, youthful liberal pledged to carry on the pro- gressive policies of retiring Gov. Ellis Arnall, polled popular vote majority but the popular vote doesn't nominate in Georgia.
 Election is determined by the unit vote which is assigned to counties on the basis Of population. Tal- madge had 249 unit votes, Car michael Al and former Governor E. D. Rivers, Is. A majority or 206, of the states 40 unit votes are all that are needed for cleo ton.
 The popular vote from 1,181 of the states l,735 precincts gave Car michael 225, ,447, Talmadge l94,411; i; Rivers 39,27l, and Capt. Hoke o. Kelley 7,2l3.
 Carmichael, 35-year old Marietta attorney y-industrialIst, refused to concede defeat early today, and Talmadge adherents admitted that a flood of late returns could con- ceivably swing the election.
 Talmadge took his lead despite the ballots of some 100000 Georgia Negroes voting for the first time. The total vote was the heaviest on record, the registration lists having been swollen to an all-time high by the franchisement of 18-year old-s removal of the poll tax, and supreme court ruling that Negroes must be allowed to vote.
 Talmadge, who was opposed by most Georgia newspapers, made an early victory claim in which he declared T had to whip the press to win the election and probably shortenened my life by years by do- ing it. But had to do it for the good of Georgia, the South and the nation. I hope they will gain something by it''

Meat Prices Stort to Dip InWoterbury
 Other Food Items
 Generally Stable;
 Costs Fluctuote

StTlklnS VdrldllOllS III meat prices were noted about the city today, with some stores reducing prices as supplies increased while others placed higher prices into effect. There was considerable uncertainty over the possible effects of the con- tinuing buyers strike which the Connecticut CI.O. will begin Mon day.
 Renato Ricciuti, president of the Greater Waterbury Industrial Union Council, said that announcement yesterday of the buyers strike was at least a partial factor in meat price reductions noted in several downtown stores. He disclosed that C.IO. canvasSers in one central establishment noted a reduction in the price of chops from 89 cents yesterday to 59 cents today, and sausage meat from 69 cents yester- day to 49 cents today. Any merchants who seek to lull us into a feeling of security by making only temporary reductions won't fool us at all" said MT Ricciuti. We shall hit at every attempt at prof. teering"
 Prices for items other than food remained generally stable. Firms affiliated with the Merchants Bu- reau have pledged themselves to maintain prices on all goods in stock June 30 and to make in creases when prices on new goods are raised by manufacturers.
 John J. Driscoll, secretary treas urer of the Connecticut CI.O. council, has appealed to local re- tallers to support the drive against imitation by declining to buy from wholesalers any items on. which ex- cesslve prices are charged
 Retail merchants will have the backing of the majority of their customers in such action" he said. Some merchants have already stopped buying and selling items which are priced unreasonably high. Their efforts to combat pro- fiteering have won the applause of their customers and represent a sound investment in good will"
 The large majority of merchants are cooperating in the anti-infla- ton campaign, said MT. Driscoll, but the minority of profiteers must be and will be publicly exposed without pity"
 Plans for the picketing of estab- lishments charging excessive prices will be made at meeting of presi- dents of all C.IO. locals tomorrow night at Garden Hall.
 When the drive opens Monday, the C.I.O. will ask all consumers to buy only absolute necessities of life" The local program will in- clude pubic meetings and demon- strations.

State Rent Bill Carries 10 Percent Boost
 Director, Commission
 $500 Fine or 90
 Days Imprisonment
 Offered as Penalty

Hartford, July 1- (UP) Fears were expressed today by some Leg islative Council members that their proposed State rent control bill will result in a general 10 percent in- crease.
 The preliminary draft of the measure provided that a 10 percent boost over former OPA levels may be authorized in specific cases by local fair rent boards. Some Coun- cil members were afraid this would become the rule rather than the exception.
 The bill sets Up penalties of a $500 fine or 90 days imprisonment or both for violations of established ceilings. This was in contrast to the OPA penalty of s5 900 fine or one year imprisonment or both.
 Calls For Commission
 A State administrator for the rent control program would be ap- pointed under terms of the bill, with a probable salary of s7,5OO. The measure also called for an eight-man commission, one member from each county, and local fair rent committees.
 The measure carried S150,0OO appropriation, and specified that it shall terminate at the adjournment of the 1947 Legislature.
 Michael Murphy, president of the Waterbury Real Estate Board, said the bill drafted by the Legislative Council sounds fine".
 Views Opposite
 I've seen only newspaper reports and of course I'm speaking only for myself but authorization of a 10 percent increase seems fairly reasonable, said MT. Murphy. "O1 course it won't make up for ths much higher costs which landlords have been paying but at least the bill recognizes their problem
 A diametrlcally opposite opinion came from Harold Senior, State C.IO. publicity director.
 Tt isn't a rent control bill at all, but instead it's a rent increase bill," said MT. Senior. Tt amounts to rent imitation. The bill demon- strates again that rent control can best be handled blythe Federal gov- ernment."
