MURDERS:

If travelling through Texarkana,
Texas. n would have seer porch
lights burning all night, twinkling
bulbs hung out in back yards,
W%atchdogs all over town, and the
streets deserted. Further, one would
have found residents ready to pull
a deadly trigger with any false
move.
All TeXarkana was on the alert
against the phantom killer who had
slain two couples at night and killed
one and wounded another of a pair.
Four of the victims were young
couples and the two others were eld-
erly married people who had been
fired upon through the window of
their farm home. All we're shot in
the head.
While the authorities told Texar-
kanans to keep their guns at their
side and shoot to kill if assaulted,
the famed Texas rangers, state
highway patrolmen. sherif's depu.

search.

Legs and Imitation

Milady's legs have a bearing on
imitation, reconversion, prosperity
and economics. Those ''gams," it
seems, are definitely related to the
state of the union.
By being a little skinny on

lea over the crest and Fastening a
more stable economic order. The
less she wears the more she may
be lessening the burdens of the
President, his cabinet, OPA. the
Democratic National committee
and perhaps the Big Three.
All of which is apparent from the
news that the subject of one inch
more or less of the female knee
has been causing huddles and de-
bates in. Washington. Whether or
not to lengthen skirts has been agi-
tating the Civilian Price Control ad-
ministration and it's advisory COM
mitteeS no end.
The advisory committee have
suggested that Washington permit
skirts to be an inch longer, but CPA
has been extra cautious. Even a
half inch more of leg may mean
millions of yards of skirt material.
Hence the committee sessions. ad-
ministration conferences, policy
makers huddles and frantic de-
bates among national leaders, lob
byists. congressman, etc.

But the news that they figure in

Chinese Communist Fovors
Republic on u. S. Model
By GEORGE WELLER

Foreign Correspondent of The Star and
Chicago Daily News.
CHUNGKING, Jan. ia Chinese
Communist today caused a sensa-
ton at the interparty peace parley
by declaring that China must pat
tern its republic after the United
States and Britain.
WI Yu-cnen said, America and
England have the most democratic
systems in the world and therefore
China must initiate them"
To doctrinaire Communists, Wu's
statement amounted to heresy.
While conceding that China must go
through period of bourgeois capi-
taliSm and private industrialization,
Communist leaders like Mao Tse-
tung never have wavered from in
sisting that China's long-range aim
should be Socialism and then Com
munism.
Preference for the Anglo-Amer-
lean system, as against the Rus
sian, was the Communists second
deviation from orthodox Marxism
during the conference. At an earlier
session, another Communist spokes-
man opposed the governments TAX
ing over or otherwise socializing
industries recovered from the Japa-
nese, stating that they should be
transferred by sale to private owners
as the more efficient plan.
Before the parley recessed Tues
day, Sun Fo, son Of Dr. Sun Yat-sen,
said China's future parliament would
meet only once in three years "in
order not to interfere with the
governments administrative pow
ers."

ROANOKE, Va, Jan. 19.-Spurred
by the third ruthless robbery-slaying
in less than two weeks, police to-
night intensified their search for one
or more gunner who have shot their
victims in the back, robbed them and
fed.
Latest victim of the killers, be-
lieved by authorities to be the same
bandits, was 55-year Roby Mon
roe Daugherty of RID !, Salem,
whose body was found early today
just inside the door of the service
station he attended at nearby Salem.
Like the two previous victims, he
had been shot in the back. About
$160 in cash was missing from the
filling stations till.
In the meantime, rewards for the
apprehension of the killers mounted
to more than $500.
Mr.. Daugherty, father of 10 chill
dren, including four servicemen,
Bataan death march, was found at
5:35 AM. by three milling company
employees returning home from work.
The two previous victims of the
robbery-slayings were killed in
much the same manner. The first
man slain, William Chatin, 30, a
Roanoke service station manager,
was shot three times, twice in the
back. He had apparently been kid
naped in his own car, forced to
drive to a point outside the city,
taken from the car into field and
slain and robbed of an estimated

Less than four days later the body
Of Roy r. Rice, 50-year old book
keeper and general auditor for a
Roanoke bottling company, was
found in pasture eight miles from
Lexington just off little-used road.
He, too, apparently had been kid
naped and forced to drive to the
lonely spot where he was shot in the
back. Police said Mr.. Rice may
have had as much as $500 on his

SEOUL, Korea, Jan. 1.-Two
Koreans were killed, many were
injured and 120 were arrested today
in rioting that ragged through Seoul

against the proposed Allied trustee
ship, erupted into a conflict between
parties of the left and right.
Quiet was restored In the capital
tonight after "a hours OF uproar and
violence that spread to the back
door of the governor generals
palace, headquarters of 1t. Gen.

Gen. Hodge in a radio address
called for an end to the parades and
demonstrations, which at times took
place in full view of Russian and
American delegations at work on a
temporary control plan for Korea.

further demonstrations. Continual
ton of demonstrations and dis

Gen. Lerch, pointing out that the
Russian-American commission was
at work in room overlooking the
street where the demonstrations
occurred, declared bluntly:
Il am warning you that constant
quarreling among ourselves and
constant clamor, raging and petit
tioning against a trusteeship are
hurting your cause badly"
= The consensus of American au-

Lawyers Losing 0ui

Gliding the legal profession for

cropping up everywhere in the place
of lawyers.
These newer professions, ne said
are crowding out the lawyers be-
cause they have new approaches
to new problems, and asked:
What good will we lawyers be
five or 10 years from now with q

right to be considered expert on

Don't Wait Young Man.
Speaking to some $50 guests at
the annual dinner of the Alumni
Association of National University
at the MayfloWer Hotel, Mr.
McGrath asserted that in law, un-
like the other professions, people
seeking advice do not ask for 8

The answer to this, he added, lies
in having the law schools turn out
new attorneys mot knowing it all

he continued, should produce the

say, as they do of doctors, engineer.

Chinese Still Fighting
As More Truce Teams
Move Into New Areas
By the Associated Press.

CHUNGKING, Jan. 10. - Scat
tered fighting continued in various
zones of China's civil war front to-
night, both government and Com
munist leaders said, six days after
the official deadline for a nation
wide truce.
Three member truce teams, each
including an American, Com
munist and a central government
representative, moved into addi-
tional areas to halt reported con-
f1icts,, but they were admittedly
powerless to end the fighting If
rival Chinese leaders continued ac-
ton after being informed of the
truce srder from Chungking.
Agree on Three Principles.
Walter Robertson, American rep
reSentative on the Truce Commits
sion, which includes Gen. Cheng
Kai-ming for the central govern
ment and Gen. Yeh Chien-ying for
the Communists, said, however, that
he and his associates had agreed
on three principles which will put
teeth into the orders truce teams
will give opposing commanders"
The nature of the three principles
was not disclosed.
A high official of the National
Military Council said Communists
were operating in force from the
heart of Inner Mongolia to points
near the lower reaches of the
Yangtze River and were seeking to
establish corridor from the
lower Yangtze to Jehol.
Communist quarters in Chung
king countered the government
charges with assertions that gov
ernment forces were mopping up
around the Honan Province high
way center of Kwangshan and were
attacking vigorously" the railroad
town of Yuncheng in Southwestern
Honan, to which a truce team has
been assigned. Communists said
government forces seized Tsoyun, 30
miles southwest of the rail junction
city of Tatung in Northern Shansi.
Marshall Flies to Shanghai.
Gen. George c. Marshall, Presi-
dent Truman's envoy who has fol-
lowed closely every development
since he brought national govern
ment and Communist leaders to-
gether for the formal truce, flew
from Chungkihg to Shanghai today
for a conference with 1t. Gen
Albert C. Wedemeyer, American
commander in China
Committees appointed by the Po-
litical Consultation Conference in
Chungking sought solutions to four
outstanding problems:
l. Reorganization and national

2. Reorganization of the state
council and fair representation of
all groups in the Executive Yuan
