Statistics reported today.
In 100 instances, the United States
Cancellation Service is designated ir

The survey showed that in all

arbitrator chosen by the outside
agency would act only in a particu-
lar deadlock. The remaining Il
agreements provide that an arbi-
traitor, when appointed at the re.
quest Of both parties, would serve
for the term of the contract.
In 1856 of the 205 agreements, the
outside agency would be called in tt

Secretary Of War Patterson pait
tribute yesterday to the bravery
and devotion to duty OF wartime
nurses at memorial services in Fort
Myer chapel for 1876 Army nurses
killed during the war.
Army nurses displayed their hero.
ism not only by death, he declared
but by the 1905 decorations they
received, including 81 Purple Hear
awards.
"They were faithful to theil
pledge-to appear fearless in tht
presence Of danger and quiet thu
fears of others to the best of theil
ability" he told an audience in
cluding 300 nurses, Army and Navy
personnel and friends and relatives
of war nurses.
Sixteen nurses" he said, "were
killed as a result of enemy action
six in an attack on the hospital
ship Comfort by a japanese plane
six on Anzio beachhead, two in
| Germany, one in Belgium and one
in Australia"
Mr.. Patterson pointed out that the
number of nurses rose from 1000
at the time of Pearl Harbor to ST.
600 at peak strength in 1945. The
Army now needs 500 more nurses
to replace those discharged, he said
The Secretary was introduced by
Surg. Gen. Norman T. Kirk of the

around. Also the big Polish vote
which has been strongly Democratic
is now divided, due to the resent
ment of some OF the Polish voters
toward the Roosevelt and Truman
administration which, they contend,
threw Poland to the Soviets. Also,
there is considerable question
whether the big Negro bloc will
vote as Democratic as it did two
years ago.

a big turnout at the polls.
"If the people living In the Capt.
tai are made of the same stun as the
fathers OF the American Revolu-
tion," he said, "they will see the
truth Of the old slogan, Taxation
without representation is tyranny,
and get Just as fighting mad as the
fathers did, because the same ques-
ton prevails here today"
Discusses Negro Vote.
Asked by Esther Van Wagner
Tufty. commentator, about "the
question uppermost in every ones
mind about national representation
. . never talked about out loud,
Mr.. Suter replied:
"Of course and know you
mean the racial argument -. that
a Negro mayor might be elected,
or Negroes may be sent to Con-
gress. My answer to that is, that
those who have studied the ques-
ton do not fear anything OF the
kind. Negroes represent about a
fourth of our population.
ITO satisfy the race prejudice Of
some people, for every Negro mere
denied the vote, three white citizens
would continue voteless. Our Dis
trict Negroes rank high In their
educational fitness, and have proven
their spirit and patriotism"
sRound Table" Conducted.
A "round-table" on VOL last
night was participated in by Mr..
Colliflower, Wilbur s. Finch, plebi-
scite vice chairman, who Is presi-
dent of the Federation Of Citizens
Associations; Woolsey Hall, presi-
dent Of the Federation Of Civic As

tary OF the Central Suffrage Con-
ference, and Mrs. Robert Leonard,
president Of the Voteless District
League Of Women Voters.
DR.. George w. Hodgkins, president
of the Kalorama Citizens Associa-
ton and trustee OF the Central
Suffrage Conference, called on radio
listeners to vote, even II they op-
posed suffrage.
Speaking over Station WMAL yes
terday, he referred to the more than
5000 ballots cast in 1898 in suf-
frage referendum.
1.-THE great increase in Washing
toms population since 1885," he said.
"is an important reason why a far
larger yote-several hundred thou
sand-is expected In 1916 in order to
convince every one that, whatever
the outcome, 1t represents fully the
sentiments Of Washington resi-
dents"
Sample Ballots Prepared.
Requests for more than 100000
sample ballots have been received at
headquarters, according to James s.
Beattie, chairman Of publicity and
promotion. Final form of the sam
pie ballot will be approved this
morning, and the committee hopes
to have ballots available for distri-
button by Wednesday, Mr.. Beattie
said.
Interest Of colleges and universe
ties in the plebiscite Is increasing,
officials announced. A class Of more
than 500 students at American Uni
versity will be addressed at IL am.
tomorrow by Kenneth p. Armstrong,
president of washington Chapter,
American Association Of Engineers,
and q trustee of the Central Suf-
frage Conference. The students
want an explanation not only Of
the plebiscite, 1t was said, but also
something of the historical back
ground of the long fight for suffrage
in the District Of Columbia.

Mrs. Doherty couldn't find living
quarters they stayed with the Sena-
tor and Mrs. OMahoney but now
they are residing in Virginia.
Any trips away for awhile have
been Cancelled for Mrs. Ellis E. Pat
terson-the children have the mea-
sles. A candidate for the Senate
from California, Representative Pat
terson found this out upon his re-
turn from Los Angeles.
This afternoon will find Senator
and Mrs. Walter F. George taking
OF for Georgia. They are going on
much-needed vacation and are
planning to do nothing but rest for
an entire fortnight. The Senator
will return here but.Mrs. George may
just inger on Indefinitely.
Senator and Mrs. Tom Connally
are not planning to be away from
Washington for any length of time
just now. Probably they will take a
trip to the country over the Easter
weekend. Mr.. Connally is up for re-
election but the filing time is not
until June / with the primaries set
for July.
Springtime brings countless visi-
tors to the Nations Capital and
probably the busiest hostesses in the
town are those in the Congressional
circle. Friends from home and con-
stituents of their husbands usually
select this time for a trip to Wash
ington.
Senator and Mrs. Bourke B. Hick-
enlooper are expecting guests next
week. Mrs. Howard Burleson and
Mrs. Harold Rose are coming from
Cedar Rapids. AS this will be their
very first visit here their time will be
devoted to sightseeing. There will
be no social events for them-they
requested this. But Mrs. Hicken-
looper undoubtedly will entertain
them at luncheon in the Senate din
ing room when they go to the Cap
itol.
Mrs. Hickenloober will not leave
for Iowa until the second week of
June. This will be after the close
of the National Cathedral School for
Girls where their daughter, Jane
Carroll, is a student.
The recess of school also sets the
date when Mrs. Wayne Morse. wife
Of Senator Morse will leave for her
home In oregon. Their three young
daughters, Nancy. Amy and Judith

GOOD NEIGHBORS

German spies operating in South American countries were often linked with espionage cases in the United States. By exchanging in formation developed in this coun- try with police agencies of our Southern neighhors, German spy successes were stymied. During the war FBI Intelligence Agents were stationed in all South American countries In addition to exchang- ing information they served as po- lice instructors for the South Am erican law enforcement agencies. In innumerable cases FBI Agents furnished information to South American police which resulted in prompt raids on Nazi spy hideouts.
 One agent wormed his way into the confidence of a group of sub versiveS to such an extent that on the death of one of the leaders of the group which was endeavoping to foment a revolution, he was assign ed as a member of the guard of honor. Before a photographer was permitted to take pictures of the funeral bier surrounded by the guard of honor, our Agent was re- moved with the admonition that he was too valuable to the group to be spotted" should the picture fall into the hands of the FBI.
 A local official in one country frequently boasted of his knowledge of worldwide police work. He claimed that he had studied Scot land Yard, the French Surete, the FBI and the worlds other leading Investigating agencies. He frequent ly ridiculed the FBI and other Am erican institutions and boasted that he could spot any FBI undercov- CT agent on sight The man he was intimately friendly with for four months was an FBI Agent posing as visitor The braggart impart- ed considerable confidential infor- nation to the visitor"

theory counter to several other wage theories espoused by organized labor These include equal pay for equal work living wage theory and increasing purchasing power by raising wages" theory. To the extent that any of these objectveS seriously pur- sued by labor the ablityto-pay theory would negate them Thus, for example, unequal ability to pay necessarily would be reflected in unequal pay for equal work"
 A major source of capital for industry is found in profits earned and not distributed to stock holders To the extent that these profits invested in plant and equipment, productivity is increased and labors real income be expanded in two ways: higher wages and low prices Workers in the industry benefit from both of these developments others can benefit only from the lower prices As Professor Fair child points out, This is the way labor makes its principal gain from the progressive development of national industry under conditions of freedom It is gain filched from the shares of the other factors of production It is labor's portion of a gain that benefits the whole community"
 A larger pie is the most certain road to higher real income for workers as well as the members of society This calls for the elimination of every bar Tier to expansion of production including makewerk practices and arbitrary efforts to reduce profits the main incentive to larger output.

 As long as the two ships are In port, teen-agers in the crews are welcome to take advantage of the facilities of the club, housed in the building that once served service men of Juneau as the USO Avail able are billiard tables, ping pong, a good juke box, letter writing fac ilities, reading, and even refresh- ments in the form of hot dogs and soft drinks.
 Director Gordon emphasizes that the men are welcome any time the club rooms are open afternoons and evenings until 11:45 p. m. Teen-Agers will be there to receive the visitors and see that they have a good time.

NAZIS PLOTTED

The German diplomatic staff fi- gured in plots designed to promote revolutions in several South Amer ican countries. German propagan- dists worked overtime to drive a wedge between the haters of Naz- ism and Fascism in the Americas. One propaganda campaign line charged that Italian submarines were sinking Brazilian ships while Brazilian troops were fighting with the Allies in Italy. The old theme of Yankee Imperialism" in South America was ground out by the Nazi propaganda machine with little success.
 Scanning the tide of Nazi pene- tration in the Western Hemisphere was no less important than halting Hitler's armies in Europe. The task was accomplished not only in the United States but the confidential records of the FBI contain thrilling exploits that bear tribute to the splendid work of South American law enforcement officers working side by side with FBI Agents throughout the Southern contin- ent. For example, when espionage rings were uncovered hy the FBI in Brazil and Chile, local authori- ties moved with dispatch rivaling the alien round-ups in the United States following the Pearl Harbor disaster.
 From July l, l940, through June 30, 1946, 879 espionage agents were identified in South America, to- gether with 28l propaganda agents, 50 sabotage agents, and 222 snug glers of strategic war materials. A tital of 15,047 alien enemies in South America were moved from strategic areas, interned or ex- pelled, while an additional l6,000 potentially dangerous enemy aliens were arrested in the United States and territorial possessions.

NEW THEORY

In the wage negotiations last winter great deal of emphasis placed upon indusrys alleged ability to pay. Major emphasis given to this thesis by Mir Reuther and the United Automobile Workers It was that wages could be paid without increases in prices because American industry had large profits and because it would benefit the repeal of the excess profits tax Since the conclusion of those negotiations not much has been heard of the ability to-pay theory. One reason undoubtedly is that time has demonstrated that under the tight standards established by OPA price relief has had to be granted to many industries compensate for wage increases
 The relative merits of the ability to-pay thesis carefully appraised in a study Profits and the Ability Pay Wages prepared by Prof Fred R. Fair
 child of Yale University. Professor Fairchld points that this theory is fraught with danger to labor If labor is to share in the profits, it follows that it share in the losses. He also points out that this

CAUGHT SPIES

For months the FBI operated a secret radio station for the Ger man network of spies in the United States. The funds for building it were supplied by the German Gov ernment. FBI Agents manned it completely and through it estab- lished contact with other clandes- tine radio stations operated by the Germans in South America Even tually, the trap was sprung and all members of the Nazi group were apprehended
 An example of our good neigh Tor policy in effective intelligence work is the case of August Lunning who was endeavoring to furnish data to Germany by shortwave radio from Cuba. He kept a sing ing canary to conceal the sound of the radio key in his room. Highly

dot messages. If the contents of one was innocuous it was permitted to go to Germany: if not, it was con- demned. Conveniently, the spies numbered each message so that we were able to keep them in sequence. This particular ring has now been broken up. Only recently a large number of members were deported to Germany.
 AS a matter of strategy many spy rings were permitted to operate un- der surveillance which often pre- sented baffling problems. In one instance a resourceful FBI Agent secured a soft-drink peddler's wa gon and sold drinks in the street, meanwhile keeping an observant eye on the meeting place of the espionage agents.

"MICRO-DOT" RING

The biggest and most baffling es- pionage case handled by the FBI during the war centered in one of our neighboring countries. This ring introduced the "Micro-dot" as a means of communication to the Western Hemisphere. The Germans succeeded in photographing a typed page of spy reports and reducing it to film no larger than pencil point. The film was embedded in a comma or period on an envelope addressed to Germany. FBI tech nicians discovered this method Of communication very early in the war and caught hundreds of micro

Toll On Silver
(St. Louis Star Times


 With Presidential signature the legazed hold-up by the Western silver bloc which forced arbitrary imitation of silver prices has been completed. Presi dent Truman had choice in the matter really he had to sign the bill which requires sale of United States Treasury silver at 905 cents in order to free the metal that is desperately needed in medicine, dentistry photography ewery manufacture. veto would have meant only further deprivation for industries that already have been forced through Senate insistence full tribute to melt silver dollars in some nstnces in order to get sufficient supplies to stay in business
 So that is that It is perhaps interesting, how ever-though purely academic-to calculate the cost of the new law to the nation Previous silver sales or the commercial market have been at the OPA ceiling -7111 cents Now the sales will have to be at the 905cent figure, increase of 1889 cents ounce.

trained and clever, Lunning's career was, nevertheless, short. Detected by the FBI and arrested by the Cuban National Police, he was tried, found guilty and sentenced to face a firing squad. The execution of the six saboteurs who landed on the Eastern coast of the United States brought the total executions of enemy agents in the Western Hemisphere to seven.
 BLOCKED ESPIONAGE
 We were reasonably sure from the very outbreak of war that es- pionage was under control not only within the United States but in the entire Western Hemisphere as we'll Partial proof lay in the fact that during the war no single en- emy- directed act of sabotage oc- cured. Complete confirmation came when the war was over and we had an opportunity to inspect German espionage records and interview their leaders
 Herman Goering paid us our highest compliment when he said that German Intelligence in the Americas had been poor as the American FBI had been too ob- servant in uncovering efforts at espionage so that spy network could not be developed"
 I cannot praise too vigorously the loyal, conscientious officials ir the Western Hemisphere who CO., operated with the FBI to make the Americas secure from enemy sa- botage and espionage.
