Settle Major Issues First, US. Replies
 Connolly Answers
 MOlotov's Proposals
 On DisoFmcmenf

Lake Success, N. Y., Nov. % = (UP) - The United States said to- day that the outstanding issues" between Russia and the other Allies must be settled before the powers can disarm and outlaw the atomic bomb.
 Sen. Tom connally, CD, Tex), told the United Nations Political and Security Committee that gno agreement is attainable without a settlement of the major issues still prevailing among the Allies"
 "A just settlement in accord with United Nations principles Is neces- sary," said Connally, obviously re- ferTing to the still unfinished treat ies ending World War 1T.
 Explains Limited Views
 Connally delivered Q general ans- wer to Soviet Foreign Minister v. M. Molotov's proposal that the powers reduce their armaments, outlaw atomic weapons. and establish in- ternational control to assure com- pliance.
 Tt is weIl to. take another look at the forest before examining the trees," Connally said in explaining his reasons for deserring q detailed American answer to the Soviet scheme.
 Connally said disarmament also depended on establishing collective security under the section of the uN Charter which provides for an ins ternational police force to keep peace.
 War can't be abolished by stat ute" C0nnally warned.
 Q. s. Policy Outlined
 lie summarized five points of b. s. disarmament policy:
 1. The u. s. wants really ef. fective" action by the LIN. gen- eral Assembly on armament re. duction, but attaches first i'm. portance to an atomic control agreement by the Atomic En- ergy Commission.
 2. The U. s. never again will
 make the mistake of disarming
 alone.
 3. Any system of disarmament and inspection must consider the amount and training of reserves as well as regular armies.
 (. Effective safeguards must be established by inspection systems Continued Page ii-(sETTLE)

At the same time he denied the unions contention that the pro- ceedings were illegal under the Norris -La0 0uardia Anti-1njunceion Act.
 Eventual Conviction Evident
 Both decisions pointed toward the eventual conviction of the nine workers leader.
 Midway in the second day of the contempt trial in which LewB and his United Mine Workers AE4A) stand accused of disooeying a re- straining order issued by 0oldsbor- ough Nov. le the judge threw out the defense arguments with tho declaration that:
 'It is perfectly clear that. the court has the right to entoan a labor union which Is about to take steps that would be against the public interest, including the ulfAw mate interest of the union ftselk."
 Lewis and the UM.W. already had admitted that they had ignored the order directing them to keep the mines open while the court ruled on their right to terminate their wage-hour contract with tho Government.
 Union Pleads Guilty In 30 doing, Goidsborough said, they in effect pleaded guilty to con- tempt.
 AS for the unions contention that the Norris-LaG Guardia Act Is bind- ing on the Government and that the court order therefore was H. legal. Goldsborough said fiatly:
 '"rhe Norris-LaGuardia Act did not apply and does not apply
 Following Goldsboroughs dounaes barreled ruling, the trial was re- cessed until 2:30 P. M. after union and Government counsel discussed with the judge what procedure to follow next. They did not ans nounce their decision. Advisory" Jury Desired
 The original plan Of the Govern ment was that Goldsborough would be assisted in the contempt tria by an advisory" jury which would make recommendation after hear- ing the evidence. The recommen~ dations would not be binding on the judge.
 In the light of Goldsborough;s re- marks during the arguments thus far. however, 1t appeared likely that he would dispense with such assistance.
 He has said that if the Norris LaGuardia Act did apply, Lewis would have to be tried by a regular jury. If the act Is not applicable. ] he has said, "the calling Of an ada visory jury would be purely non- sense" inasmuch as the case turns on questions of law sather than fact. And he has now held that the Norris-LaGuardta Act does not apply.
 . Attorney General Tom c. Clark announced meanwhile that Lewis will face only one legal battle at a time. He said after a White House Cabinet conference that he plans no action against Lewis under the Smith Connally Act until the cons tempt trial is concluded. Clark Confess For Hours The Smith-C Connally Act outlaws instigation of strikes in Govern ment-seized mines or plants.
 Clark said the Government should confine it's action to the csEg~ rent proceeding until t Is dis posed of" before starting any furs ther prosecution.
 Clark and others said coal WaE not discussed at the Cabinet con~ ference. However. Clark remained , after other cabinet members ieft , and talked privately with President Truman--presufnably about coaa-' for more than an hour.

that British authorities are legally justified in transferring nearly 4,000 Jews now in Haifa Harbor and other illegal immigrants from Palestine to Cyprus as public security measure.
 Retaliation from the Jewish un. derground for the decision against the Immigrants seeking to enter the Holy Land was expected quickly. Many observers believed 1t would come within 24 hours.
 Three British ships loaded with nearly 4,000 Jews transferred from the IsnesSeth Israel sailed from Haifa to Cyprus today. They had been held up 4e hours while the court pondered Jewish efforts to win Q writ of habeas corpus allowing the refugees to land.
 e,e00 Jews Already on Cyprus
 By rejecting the habeas corpus petition, the BFstish-manned court gave High Commissioner Sir Alan Cunningham an unqualified goo ahead to continue the Cyprus de- porta4ion program. There are 5000 Jews in detention camps on the is- land now.
 Chief Justice Sir William Fitzger. ald read the i5-minute verdict in @ courtroom surrounded by barbed wire. All persons entering the court room had their passes checked three times. ard coEzsspondents' type writers were opened thrice.
 The decisiozG rejected the defense claim that the mass deportation sys- tenn was a n1isuI. of power. Sir Wn- Ham stated the evidence "over- whelning supported" the high com- missioner.
 The militant Irgln zvai LeVlmi underground organization had threatened reprisals if the court re: jected the Jewish application. Quaf- flied observers believed such repris- als were more hkely to be road min- ing and similar explosions than at- tacks against personalities.
 Legality Given Deportation Palestine authorities have e free legal hand to continue their practice of deporting to Cyprus ell groups of Jewish refugees caught trying to en- ter Palestine without official certi- ficates.
 The supreme court is manned by British judges. It is part of the Pal- estine central government operated by the British as the mandatory power.
 Refugees whose entry was sought, and who now face quick transfer to Cyprus, reached Haifa this week in the Knesseth Israel. They were transferred to three British liberty ships after a fight with British troops in which two Jews died and q British soldier was reported drowned
 Three more shiploads of Jewish T .ugees from Europe were reported nearing Palestine. This report and the arrival of Field Marshal Viscount Montgomery. Chief of the Imperial General Staff, for military consulta- tions sharpened the air of expectan- cy in the country.
 Camp Too Small
 Transfer of several thousand more refugees. might over-tax the camp facilities in Cyprus and force c change in the entlre policy.

NEW YORK, Jan. s.-Joe Nc
Carthy puffed on a cigar and re-
fused to worry about the terrific
job he faces in trying to sort out
some 10 ball players in the New
York Yankees two Florida train
ing camps.
ITS not going to be as bad as
some people seem to think" he said,
when the appointment of Red
Rolfe as the clubs No. / coach was
announced. "It won't be bad on
a club like ours, where there are
plenty Of good ball players.
Rolfe, former Yanks star third
sacker, succeeds the ailing Art
Fletcher, as requested by Mccarthy.
Yankee President Larry MacPhail
also filled major administrative jobs
in his farm system.
Sure, it's going to be difficult to

of such q huge squad. I might
overlook some fine players. But If
I do they won't be lost. They'll

U-Lions Add Wingman

Another new face will be in the
Washington Lions lineup tonight

Eastern League game.
The latest addition is Bryan Rob-
inson, formerly the leading scorer
Of the Senior Ontario Hockey As
sociation, w,.o will go in the for
ward line of Nick Phillips and Frank
Long.
The Lions have defeated the
Olympics only once this season
along with tie, but feel in posi-
tion to turn in an upset. This is
based on the fact that the local
six defeated the New York Rovers
in their last game here, while the
latter turned around and topped
Boston Sunday.

For years IL was the custom at
Central High for basket ball
players to wear their hair closely
cropped. This particularly was
true in the days when Bert Cog
gins was coaching and the vik-
ings pretty well dominated the
schoolboy court game.
Shorn locks have nothing to do
with basket ball ability, but it
wouldn't be surprising to see the
Vikings go back to that old Gus
tom after the performance
turned in last week by Mel
(Coolbreeze) Farr. only member
of the team so far who has his
hair cut down within a quarter
inch of badness. The other boys
may want his kind Of luck, and
If a thin thatch will do 1t, then
1t will be haircuts all around for
Central this week.
Anyway, Farr came in as
second-half substitute against
Wilson at time when the Tigers
were in front and going away.
He tossed in three baskets and
pair Of free ones to tie the score
and the Tigers barely managed
