Launches Career With
New Republic Magazine
BY The Assoeiofed Press

NEW YORK, Dec. 11.-Henry
A. Wallace. making his debut as
editor of the New Republic states
his platform for "jobs, peace and
freedom" in the lead editorial OF
the December Is issue of the
magazine published today.
II stand for one idea," writes the
former Secretary of Commerce, who
turned magazine editor after resign
ing from the cabinet on request OF
President Truman because Of his
public criticism of the administra-
tion's foreign policy. That idea, he
states, is ''that jobs, peace and free
dom can be attained together and
can make possible one world, pros
porous and free, within our life
time"
I'm days when reactionaries call
the tune and the daily press dances
to it, weekly magazine is the best
medium" for such program, Mr..
Wallace says. "That is why I have
become editor of the New Repub-
lic."
Declaring that progressives must
carry on his program, the former
Vice President makes an open bid
for support from both major political
parties.
"The American people have re-
jected, as they always will, DEM
ocratic Party that is not militantly
progressive, !" he writes. americans
have called for new leadership
They will not find it in the present
Republican hierarchy; until they
find it, they will not rest
'I have said many harsh things
about the Republican Party, but !
have never spoken badly of the rank
and file of the Republicans. They
were my people. My father was q
Republican Secretary Of Agriculture

|lican farmers of Iowa can be when

742 SHIPWRECKED JEWS rescued

BY the Assoeioted Press


LONDON, Dec. 11.-An au-
thoritative source said today
informal talks between Foreign
Secretary Bevin and Secretary
|of State Byrnes had resulted in
an American agreement to in
tegrate the American approach
to the Palestine question with
that of Britain.
In practice this would mean that
America would no longer make any
unilateral statements or moves con-
corning the Holy Land without first
consulting Britain. the source said.
This does not mean that the
United States Government has
changed its basic policy on Pales-
tine, the informant said, but would
involve only consultation with the
British when new developments
arose.
Mr.. Bevin assured President Tru-
man and Mr.. Byrnes that any
Jewish proposals placed before the
Palestine conference would receive
the fullest consideration by Britain,
and this secured American backing
for the London talks, he added.
Mr.. Byrnes' announcement last
week that American observers would
be present if the news attended the
sessions when they are resumed in
January was one of the first re-
suits of the Bevin-Byrnes talks, the
informant said.
Despite past American insistence
on immediate and substantial" in
creases in Jewish immigration into
Palestine, no immediate change in
Britain's immigration policy would
be effected until, at least, the con-
ference reached some agreement on
the Holy Lands future, the source
said

Agent. warned this week, advising
in.te holiday hazards in their homes.
December fire losses are nearly al
ways greater than any other month
OF the year, Nj. Raper said. Losses
last December were nearly fifty mil
lion dollars. Holiday fires account
for large part of this.
Christmas trees, holly wreaths
tree trimmings electrical toys and
wiring are Christmas fire hazards
A fire eXtinguisher near the tree
won't help much if the family goes
to bed leaving the tree lighted by
set with defective wiring. Many
family has awakened in the middle
of the night to find the whole
downstairs mass of rearing flames
Mr.. Raper said that the Fire Pro-
lection Institute has issued a num-
Der Of rules for the farmstead which
might be studied by every farmer at
Christmas. Here they are:
l. Flameproof the tree, Wreaths
and decorations with chemical spray.
,. Place the tree away from the
fireplace. Set it in a firm stand 10
prevent it from topping over. Place
stump of tree in pan CT water to
prevent drying.
3. Make sure ele trical toys and
lighting sets are approved by Under
writer's laboratories.
4. Warn smokers in the family
ODE particularly careful.
5. Keep the family fire exiting
usher filled and ready for emergency
use.
6. Clear out gift package wrap
pings such as paper, tissue and rib
bons as socn as gifts are opened.
7. Never use cotton batting for
under-tree snow unless it has been
flame-proofed.
8. If a member of the family IS
going to play Santa Claus, warn him
against smoking in costume. A
young man in Hope, Mo-, died hor-
ribly when the beard on his false
face caught fire.
If your children are in a Christ
mas pageant, make sure their ccs-
tunes are flame-proofed and see
that they keep clear of open flames.
10. Get rid of the tree before it
dries out and becomes a fire hazard.
