 Rep. AdoIph sabath of Illinois was making An impassioned speech in favor of Chicago as the site for the United Nations organization, when Vito Marcantonio New York American- -Lab6rite broke In:
 T am afraid Chicago Is disqualified because of its continuous warfare against England"
 He was referring to the late Big Bill" Thomp- son. former Mayor of Chicago, who once threatened to punch the King of England on the nose and to the subsequent Anti-British crusade of the Chicago Tribune Marcantonio, on the other hand, insisted that peaceloving New York was the ideal spot for the United Nations.
 q wonder if we could not compromise on Piy- mouth" suggested COP. Minority Leader Joe Mar-f tln who comes from Massachusetts,
 "Yes, concede that this is historic spot re-f piled Sabath, but surely the gentleman does not contemplate that the United Nations Organization should founder on a rock"
 Naval officers who in peacetime make living with the pen are plenty riled over the series of articles MY Three Years With Eisenhower" written by Capt. Harry C. Butcher Naval Aide to General Ike, and now being published in national weekly.
 The series is compilation of diary notes made by Butcher during his day-to-day work as an instder in the top military command
 What is burning up Butchers officer colleagues is that the keeping of such diaries was strictly for- bidden in at least two direcves by the Navy Depart ment to Navy personnel in The North African and European Theaters.
 Reason for the directives was to prevent diaries on operations from falling into the hands or the en- emy should their authors be taken prisoner
 So now, other naval officers want to know how and why Capt. Butcher was excepted from the de rectives and was permitted to cash in on his adven- lures when the rest of the Navy was forbidden to keep diaries. They say that there must have been major slip-up if an officer with such an important job as Naval Aide to Eisenhower wasn't advised or the regulation.
 NOTE-Butcher comes from Kansas home state of Gen. Eisenhower, and was an official of the Co- lun,bia Broadcastng Company before he got his com- mission on Eisenhowers staff. Mrs. Butcher and Mrs. Eisenhower shared the same hotel apartment in Washington while their husbands were away.
