predlozil general Marshall. Wits
washingtonskih krogov je zdai
da Sc bo mescanska vojna NADIA

Znano je, da 81 je general
Marshall moeno prizadeval, da
pregovori generalisima ciang
Kajseka, da pristane ma premir-
je. Njegov nasvet je bill, da maj

odklonili ponudbo, ker SO prepri-
cani, da zeli Ciang Kajsek le
pridobiti toliko casa, da bi mo-
gel zbrati Sc vecjih sill "a ofen-
zivo v smeri Kalgana.
Visoki uradniki drzavnega

upanje, da DO mogoee gospodar-
sko pomagati KIM, ako pride do
premirja., Nameravano je bilo,
razdeliti to gospodarske pomoe
v enaki meri med vlado in ko-
muniste. Ako bi bile Zedinjene
drzave nastopile tako, so sma-
trail tt krogi v Washingtonu, da
bi morda ODE stranki vendar
spoznali, da bi bilo bolje najti
sporazum kot nadaljevati borbo.

Dies Pluns
To Seek
Senate Seat

Washington (FP)-The old macs
tro, Martin Dies, plans to run for the
Senate in year or so, but mean
while is planning to campaign to
elect his son, Martin Dies, Jr. as a
Representative from the Texas dis
trict in which both reside
That interesting tidbit came July
25 from Columnist Frank c.. Waldrop
of the Dies-loving Washington Times
Herald.
interviewing the elder Dies at Luf-
kin, Tex, Waldrop reported that Dies
"is as healthy as he ever was" lie
added that Martin, senior, is practic-
ing law with satisfaction "is buy
ing and trading as all Texans do who
can, in timber, cattle and ranch
land"
Other than a speculation that he'd
like a Senate seat sometime and his
son may run for the House two years
hence, Dies told the columnist that
the only other consideration that
would draw him back to Washington
would be that of special counsel to a
congressional investigation Of "the
whole damned New Deal from top to
bottom"
Waldrop confirmed what liberals
charged almost two years ago, that
"judging by all appearances and all
the records | have been able to piece
together, Dies never was a very sick
man."
He added that Dies told him the
reason he left Congress was that
Roosevelt and his crowd poured
money into my district to beat me- !
just got sick and tired of the whole
thing and still am"

General Acts As
Mays Messenger

Washington (FP)-A two-star gen
eral acted as messenger boy for Rep.
Andrew ]. May d., Ky) when the
latter sent an appeal for clemency to
Gen. Dwight Eisenhower in connec-
tion with the court martial of Capt.
Joseph Carson, son Of Murray Cars
son, one of Mays munition- making
friends.
The Senate War Investigating
Committee was told that Maj. Gen.
Alden H. Watt carried Mays mes
sage To France in behalf of Capt.
Carson, who was charged with will
full disobedience of lawful com
mand" He was convicted and SEN
fenced April 7, l945 to dismissal from
the army, but later the sentence was
suspended and he was placed on the
inactive list
May had previously interviewed with
the War Department in behalf Of the
Carson interests, helping them OBJ
tain $7S million in profitable war con
tracts.
As additional testimony came be-
fore the Senate committee involving
high ranking army officers, the Pen
tagon announced it would conduct its
own probe into their activities in con
nection with the Carson munitions
scandal.

Strike Halls All
Housing Projects

Rochester, N. Y. (FP)-Construc-
tion on ITO housing projects came to
a halt here as 900 members of Local
435, International Hod Carriers,
Building & Common Laborers (AFL)
walked off their jobs.
The strike, Gaping seven months
of contract talks, came after the Con-
tractors Association rejected a wage
increase recommendation of its own
negotiating committee. Although the
local had demanded wage increases
up to $1.15 and $l.30 an hour for diff
ferent work categories, it voted July
"a to accept the employer committees
offer of a flat $l.20 rate, retroactive
to July l.
Later in the evening, however, the
contractors backed down, claiming
that the offer had been an informal
one. Business Agent Louis Genovese
promptly accused the contractors of
welshing on their agreement and
pinned responsibility for the strike on
them.

PIon To Organize
TeIevision Field

Chicago (FP)-Jurisdiction over all
workers in television was claimed by
the international Alliance of Theatri-
cal Stage Employees (AFL) when
1,100 delegates in convention here
adopted a resolution calling for or
ganization from conception to con-
clusion" of television program pro-
duction.
Included in some 70 other resolu-
tions facing the convention was the
question of the rights of all-Negro
locals whose members have no voting
power here but are limited to par
ticipation as visitors and observers.
Anti-communism is another issue with
several resolutions proposing that
communists be barred sfrom union
membership. Attacks on communists
likewise featured the speeches Of
President Richard F. Walsh and State
Senator Jack B. Tenney, head of the
California so-called little Dies COM
mittee.
While IATSE was voting to assume
jurisdiction over television, staff MEM
bers of the Chicago CHS studios vot-
ed for the Radio & Television Direc-
tors Guild (unaffiliated). The guild
has applied for an AFL charter.

(COnfinned From PAGE OneJ


stated, Imitation would have been in
evitable. While the present measure
by no means guarantees that imitation
can be avoided, it offers a sufficient
prospect of success to warrant the
making of a wholehearted effort to
keep our economy on an even keel
until a flood of goods makes further
controls unnecessary"
The fact that prices and rents have
steadily and ominously" risen dur
ing the price control hiatus demon
strates, Mr.. Truman said, "that the
continuance of effective price control
is a vital necessity to our people"
However, he added, the present
legislation makes the task of staving
off initiation "even more difficult than
it has been in the past"
Clothing prices, in particular, he
said, will have to be increased, along
with prices of some other commodi-
ties, and "it is particularly unfortu-
nate that many Of these increases re-
suit from concessions to special in
terest pressures, rather than from the
adoption of principles designed to ex-
pand production within stable price
structure"
The new law requires OPA to fix
ceilings which would reflect 1910 av-
erage industry-wide prices on each
product, plus cost increases which
have occurred since that time.
Industry advisory committees must
take the first step toward any price
revision. They are required to sub
nit Comprehensive" cost information
to support petitions for price in
creases. The OPA has so to GO days
after receipt of such information to
grant or deny petition.
If the OPA fails to act within this
time, the industry could take its peti-
tion to the emergency court of APP
peals for a ruling. This is a special
court set up under the price control
bill to hear complaints against OPA
regulations.

The score isn't bad-even with Tai
madge in.
Count the ones that are out.
Wheeler-Nye-Sh Shipstead.
That's pretty good for one swish of
the broom.
Gradually, as the years have gone
by, they have been on the way out
Ham Fish went out. Others have
gone. The clock moves on, inexorably.
Back in the days when the progress
sives swept in on rising tide of pub
lie anger at reaction, when men such
as Wheeler, Nye and Smith Brook
hart, came to Congress, most of them
found their way up to Ninth and
Massachusetts Avenue in Washing
ton. There they told Samuel Comp
ers how much they owed to labor and
how faithful they intended to be.
That is history. But it is only a
part Of history.
Isolationism got into their veins.
They forgot their labor moorings and
went haywire.
Lindbergh flew the Atlantic and got
fame-and then, having seen bit of
Paris, he got isolationism. The birds
focked together. Now they are flock
ing into oblivion.
Our nation is, in way, growing up.
1t is realizing its place in the world.
We have come long way since

road to World War III.
There is a long road ahead, but we
seem somehow to have found our di.
rection.
1t cannot be said now, as it once
could be said, that the Middle West is
rooted to the isolationist point OF
view. Nor any other part of the coun-
try, either.
We seem now to know that the ma
ton, as a nation, has a role to play
and that it must be played on the
world stage
A Russian writer has been giving
the world his views of the United
States.
He doesn't think too much of our
intelligence in world affairs. He
writes of US, it seems, as something
of a nation of childish thinkers in the
big affairs of the world.
But he is wrong. We are no longer
thinking in narrow, childish terms.
We are doing plenty of sound, adult
thinking.
Signs are Wheeler, Nye and Ship
stead.
The narrow thinkers are being re-
jected.
1t is all to the good.
OF course it is too bad that Georgia
could not have given Talmadge a re-
sounding defeat. But the PEOPLE
did give him just that. 1t was Geor-
gia's unit system of voting that saved
his political hide. He probably is to
be the last man of his type ever to
hold power in the South.
Some day in the future, when his
torian writes of the political up
heaval that began when states started
to discard the old system of electing
United States Senators in state legis-
latures, it will be written that our ad-
vancement has been rapid, that we
really turned the big corner in
hurry.
History has way of making spans
of years seem small. To see how that
is, you need only look back at the
span between the American Revolu-
tion and the firm establishment of a
nation and the adoption of the Bill of
Rights. Those, to the men and women
then living, were slow and painful
years. Now they seem but flash.
We are moving at high speed,
really. And we appear to know i'm
what direction we need to move.
No nation can move slowly any
more. We have to move fast and we
do move fast.
The atomic bomb doesn't exist in a
world Of snails. In itself it is a roar
ing sign of the speed of our time-in
every part of our living.
Political forces will do well to re-
alize that inescapable fact.-CMW.

ory, co-chairman of the strike COM
mittee, got big hand from the work
ers as he lashed into the smear stories
which have appeared in the Hartford
Times and Hartford Courier since the
two strikes began.
"As long as the papers of this city

people will not have free press" he

Negroes Seated
At Convention

Chicago (FP)-While 1000 dele

convention here heard Bishop Bern
ard j. She'll plead for racial, religi-
Gus and national tolerance, Negro
members of the union were denied
seats on the convention floor or in the
balcony where they attempted to sit
as observers.
Local union officials in charge of
the convention at first blamed fire law
limitations and then lack of seating
space for the ban. Finally after ap-
pealing to international officers of the
union, the Negroes were given seats
in the balcony.
A request for admission of theater
managers into the union, placed be-
fore the convention by the Motion
Picture Theater Operating Managers
& Assistant Managers Guild, was re-
ferred to the IATSE executive board
The convention will also discuss
