The Show Must Go On Even When

antics of Mr.. Buckley should have

Even so it was lively revue, quite
on a par with the Club Cairo's

star of such stature that he even
has a fan club. That would be Phil
Brito, whose radio programs and
recordings have recruited the Phil
Brito Fan Club. a delegation from
which was on hand to welcome him.
Mr.. Brito also is the man who has
had much to do with the rise in
popularity of that Five Minutes
More" ditty, which you can hear
him sing, among other things, either
at the Cairo or at your neighbor-
hood movie house if Monogram

Mr.. Brito sings it, and the other
things, very well.
Others on hand now are Duke

man who proves that sculpture can
be amusing; Connie Sawyer, who
sings comic songs, and, of course,
the showgirl contingent, handsomely
costumed in some production num-

One of the things Jack Schafer,

liked about Army life--it may even
have been the only thing was that
lit provided him refuge from q press
agent who was giving him a bad
time. The f1ack, not wishing to
connect Mr.. S. with anything sc
prosaic as the Chicago or New
Orleans jazz schools, invented one
of his own and described the
Schafer band as the leading expo
Inent of Pennsylvania jazz. 1t wasn't
too bad until a columnist for q

That did it. Mr.. Schafer welcomed

Resignation OF Leave
Is Issue in CIark's
Fight for Judgeship
BY the As,ociuted Press

The United States Court OF Claims
called today for new arguments in
the fight by former Federal Judge
William Clark to regain his judicial
post under Draft Act guarantees.
The 55-year-old Mr.. Clark Of
Princeton, N. j., is seeking to be
restored to the Third Circuit Court
Of Appeals bench, which he left In
March, 1912, to accept a commits
sion as lieutenant colonel.
A major point at issue centers on
whether Mr.. Clark resigned or took
leave Of absence when he entered
the Army.
Last May, after his discharge from
the service, Mr.. Clark filed suit
asking $9,375 salary dating back to
August Is, 1945. That is the date
he notified the Justice Department
he was ready to return to the bench.
However, Gerald Mclaughlin had
been appointed to his seat In May,
I943.
Lloyd Paul stryker of New York,
Mr.. Ciark's attorney, told the Court
of Claims that President Roosevelt
had rejected Mr.. Clark's attempt to
resign when he entered the Army.
although the late President subse-
quently wrote Mr.. Clark a letter
whose gist was II think we had bet
ter let the resignation stand"
However, Mr.. Stryker declared 1t
was not "a duly accepted resigna-
ton" and that Mr. Clark could only
be removed from the bench by death
or impeachment.
E. E. Ellison, representing the
Justice Department, argued that
even If the resignation was not ac-
cepted, Mr.. Clark vacated the bench
by accepting the Army commission.
Federal statute, Mr.. Ellison said,
forbids Government official to
hold two jobs.
The fiye-man Court Of Claims
took the case under advisement
after giving Mr.. Stryker 10 days to
answer a supplementary brief.

S5,7S4,925 in Back Taxes
Demanded Of Henry Lustiq
By the AssoeIoied Press

NEW YORK, Aug. 10.-Tax liens
totaling S5,784925.49 were filed in
Federal Court yesterday against
Henry Lustig and the corporations
in his Longchamps restaurant chain.
The liens, filed by William j. Ped
rick, collector of internal revenue
for the second New York district, are
for personal income, corporate in
come and excess profits taxes during
1910, l94l, 1943 and 1914 in the
case of Lustig and 1910 through 1914
for the corporations.
Richard J. Burke, an attorney for
Lustig, challenged the Governments
figures and said the Government
had been paid s2,490,878.
Assistant United States Attorney
Louis Bender said, however, that the
original sum claimed by the Govern
ment was 1892 1893 and the s2,490,-
o73 already had been deducted.
Lustig was sentenced July 10 to
four years in prison and fined s115,-
600 for income tax evasion. > His
nephew, E. Allen Lustig, and his
chief accountant, Joseph Sobel,
were convicted with him. All are
free under bail pending appeal of
their convictions.

COP Maps Efforts
To Defeat AxteII
In Missouri Race
BY the A,soeiotsd Press

Republicans began building uI
steam today for a determined at
tempt to set back President Truman
by beating Enos A. Axtell in the
Missouri 5th district congressional
race.
Mr.. Truman told his news confer
ence yesterday he was making a
categorical statement when he said
that Mr.. Axtell, whom he supported
in a successful primary race last
Tuesday against incumbent Repre-
sentative Slaughter, would be
elected.
Republicans generally are not
conceding any such result. An off,
cial of their national committee
said unusual efforts will be made on
behalf of the party's nominee, Al
bert l.. Reeves, jr.
The Republican Congressional
Campaign Committee long has
marked the 5th Missouri district as
a marginal area where a COP NOM
inee would have fair chance of
winning.
Figures Recalled.
Mr.. Slaughter had defeated the
COP nominee there by only 1,08O
votes in 1912. in an off-year election
like the one in November. Mr.
Slaughter's margin was 5,193 votes
in 1914.
Engaging in some big-word spar
ring yesterday with Representative
Brown of Ohio, who is directing the
COPS congressional campaign, the
President said that if it hadn't been
for the CT terminal pay bill-an ex-
penditure he didn't know about
when he made his first estimates
the budget would have been
balanced
Mr.. Truman came back with what
he called Democratic word-obfus-
cation-in response to Mr.. Browns
complaint of "ingannation" in the
new budget program.
The President said Mr.. Brown
used $40 word-a Republican wore
that Democrats wouldn't use-tc
mean deceit. He added that he hae
to have it looked up to find out JUS
what was on Mr.. Browns mind.
Statement Challenged.
He told reporters at his news con
ference that he guessed that wore

fuscation which he said was char

Shanghai, Aug. 10 P).-J. Frank
lin Ray, director of UNRRA's China
Office, told turbulent session of the
UNRRA Far Eastern Council today
he could not recommend resumption
of full shipments of relief supplies to

About 120 1000 tons of UNRRA sup

OF alleged mishandling of supplies
