Jews Turned Back on Border By US. Army

Frankfurt, Aug. 2-GUP)-Reli- able sources reported today that the U. S. Army had turned back from the border of it's German oc- cupation zone an unspecified num- Der of large groups of Jews from eastern Europe.
 Informants said the groups of Jews were stopped at the frontier in order to discourage organized mass refugee movements"
 The turning back of Jews seeking to enter the U. s. occupation zone is contrary to Nthe established policy Of Gen. Joseph T McNarney, Amer ican commander in Europe, and his adviser on Jewish affairs, Rabbi Philip Bernstein. That policy is pitched on the assumption that the zone is a haven" for persecuted persons.
 Small scale individual Jewish infiltration still was permitted, un- official but reliable. sources re- r1O1-te6

Reuther's .Speedup Talk Rejected

Detroit. Aug. 2-(UP1-ChrysleI Corporation joined the Ford Mo- tor Company today In rejecting a proposal by C.IO. United Auto Workers President Walter P. Reu- ther for an industry-wide labor management conference to speed up tagging auto production
 Henry Ford II refused to meet with Reuther and suggested instead that the JAW. chief do some thing about the current strikes in parts supplier plants, but Vice. President Herman L. Weckler o1 Chrysler invited Reuther to discuss production problems privately.
 General Motors Corporation, the third member of the auto industry $ Big Three has made no com ment on Reuther's invitation to meet with company executives tc iron out troubles which have held production to about 50 percent oi capacity.
 SlllCe Jan. l, the industry mas produced little more than l250, ,O0C cars and trucks, compared with more than 3,500,000 for the same period of pre-War l941. The in. dustry places major blame for the production loss on the coal, steel rail, copper, general motors anc supplier strikes, which resulted 1T material and fuel shortages.
 Weckler told Reuther in a letter that Chrysler would be glad to dis cuss the production situation "sc far as Chrysler Corporation is con. cerned, but that we do not believe the situation can be dealt with or an industry-wide basis in a join' conference such as you have called.

Compromise On Security BiIITaken
 Congressional
 Adjournment
 Expected Today

Washington, Aug. 2 UP)-A compromise on social security legis- lation today improved the chances of Congressional adjournment by nightfall.
 Administration leaders conceded, however, that their plans to send Congress on its longest vacation in eight years still could encounter stumbling blocks.
 But they were optimistic that Congress in few hours would com plete legislative action on the last three major items. They were:
 1. A $2,7O5, 900 ,OO0 appropria-
 tion bill including $2,479, 900 900 for CT terminal leave pay and
 $25, ,0OO, GOO for OPA. 2. The hotly contested social
 security measure freezing the
 payroll tax at 1 percent on both
 employer and employees for 1947
 and giving some additional ed-
 eral benefits for dependent children, and the aged and crip-
 pied needy.
 3. A resolution by which the
 United States would accept
 compulsory jurisdiction of the
 new world court on all matters
 affecting treaties and interna-
 tional law.
 The court resolution was a late and tentative starter on the Ad- ministration's must" program It was brought up in the closing hours by Sen. Wayne L. Morse, (R.-Are) |, but gained momentum under argu ments that to reject it now would embarrass American enissaries at the current Paris peace conference.
 The best chance for its adoption lay in acceptance of an amendment by Chairman Tom Connally, O. Tex), of the Senate Foreign Rela- tions Committee which would let the United States determine for itself whether any future dispute was purely a domestic issue or came with jurisdiction of the inter- national court
 The court resolution required a tWo-thirds vote of the Senate for adoption.
 Conference committee reports on the Appropriation and Social Secur- ity bills must be acted upon.
 The Social Security Bill had been the chief stumbling block until con- ferees agreed last night on differ ences between the two houses.
