OFFICERS TO ENFORCE NO
TRESPASSING LAWS

Efforts are being made by the
Commission of Game and Inland
Fisheries to give the widest pub
licity possible to the new laws
regarding hunting trespass, in
order that minimum of hunters
will not be uniformed of it's
provisions when the hunting sea-
son opens. It would be a pity
for anyone to be jailed because
of ignorance of the law.
Inasmuch as the trespass laws
of Virginia in the past have been
largely ineffective, the General
Assembly, at it's last session,
amended existing laws in order
that they, might have teeth in
them and really give protection
to landowners who wish to save
their game and insure their prop
erty rights as landowners.
The new law specifically states
that man hunting on posted
land must have on his person a
written permission from the land
owner. Without such written per
NIT, it is mandatory that game
wardens and other officers of
the law make arrests, and when
offenders are brought into court,
it is mandatory upon the courts
that the offenders be fined, even
though the property owner should
intercede.
1t has been impressed upon all
game wardens of the State that
they are expected to carry out
the provisions of this law.
Students of game management
in Virginia have long recognized
the fact that failure to safeguard
private property from unscrupu-
lous hunters has been a major
drawback in the improvement of
wildlife supplies. Many land
owners have been uninterested
in game because of the nuisances
occasioned them by unscrupu-
lous hunters upon their proper
ties.

Drug Store Jammed
In Segregation Protest

More than rs white and colored
persons staged a demonstration in
the Longfellow Building at 1901
Connecticut avenue NV. yesterday
In protest of what they termed vio-
lation of a pledge that there would
be no race discrimination in the
building cafeteria.
While police looked on, the group
jammed a newly opened Whelan
Drug Store which serves only white
people at its lunch counter. A sep
arate counter for outgoing orders is
available to colored persons.
Some Of the demonstrators said
they were employees of the Public
Building Administration and the
United Nations Food and Agricul-
tural Organization, which occupy
the building.
Henry w. De Lagarde, president
of Local No. 3 of the CIO United
Public Workers and leader of the
demonstrators. said that the Whelan
Co. had promised to continue q
nondiscrimination policy when it
took over the, cafeteria. A PHA
spokesman said such an assurance
had been received by the Govern
ment agency.
r. L. Bowman, Whelan District
manager. said that any promises
to operate the cafeteria without ra-
cial segregation were made without
authority from the company. He
added that the two persons report
ed to have made such pledges were
no longer connected with the firm.
The cafeteria is on the ground
floor OF the structure. Until recent
ly 1t was operated by Government

Army, Navy Out 10 Check
Loss Of Student Doctors
BY the Associoted Press

The Army and Navy, harried by
heavy losses of doctors to civilian
practice, are trying to find out how
many of its student-doctors will
make a career of the services.
About 1900 Government trained
doctors are affected by directives
which say, in effect Sign up for
one year or more, or ask to get
out now.
The reward for agreeing to stay
on at least full year is a pay in
crease of $100 per month, authorized
by the last Congress to keep doctors
in the military services.
The Navy has 900 doctors who are
obligated to serve until next spring
in return for the training they re-
ceive. They are not entitled to the
extra $100 pay unless they apply for
regular commissions or volunteer
for at least a year.
The Army has 1900 nonvolunteer
doctors and wants to put its whole
Medical Corps on a volunteer ba-
sis "as far as possible" the an

Palestine Split Plan
Near u. n. Vote After
III. S.-Russian Accord
BY the Associated Press

LAKE SUCCESS, Nov. H.
Agreement between the United
States and Russia on enforcing
partition of Palestine today
pushed the proposal to create
independent Jewish and Arab
Nations in the Holy Land nearer
a United Nations vote.
DR.. Herbert V. Evatt Of Australia,
chairman of the Assembly's 81.
nation Palestine Committee, pre-
dicted the ballot of acceptance or
rejection of partition would come
within three days in the committee.
The outcome remained in doubt de-
spite the rare American-Soviet ac-
cord because of strenuous Arab OBJ.
jections.
Another unknown factor was the
eventual attitude of the British gov
eminent toward the enforcement
plan, which provides that Britain,
as mandatory power, shall "be re-
sponsible for the maintenance Of
law and order and conduct of essen
tial public services in Palestine" for
an interim period preceding inde-
pendence.
London Cabinet Meets Today.
The cabinet was scheduled to
meet in London today and British
spokesman said his delegation hoped
to have definite instructions by to-
morrow. The British have insisted
that they would not seek to enforce
any Holy Land solution which was
not acceptable to both the Jews
and Arabs. The Jews accept par
tition and the Arabs threaten force
if it is adopted.
A nine-nation partition" subcom-
mittee failed to give final approval
to the new plan last night despite the
overall American-Russian agree
ment on the grounds that the func-
tions and authority of a proposed
U. N. commission charged with
interim administration had not been
sufficiently clarified
The plan calls for termination Of
the British mandate over Palestine
May l, 1948. and creation OF the two
Independent countries no later than
next July l.
After the American-Soviet agree
ment, American Delegate Herschel
V. johnson said in a radio speech
that "the chances are good of put
ting into effect workable United
Nations solution of a difficult inter-
national problem"
Another subcommittee consisting
of Arab representatives had a coun-
terprosal for one independent Arab
nation ready for presentation. Com
mittee spokesmen said it would be
introduced before the full Palestine
Committee at the same time as
the final partition plan reaches the
parent group.
Any committee decision then will
be subject to a final vote in a
plenary session Of the General As
sembly at Flushing Meadow.
The 57-nation Political Commit
tee, meanwhile, continued debate on
the Spanish case with Poland eX-
pected to present proposal calling
the the U. N. to order economic
sanctions against the government Of
Generalissimo Franco. The Domin-
ican Republic yesterday suggested
that the case be dropped from the
Assembly calendar on the ground
that Franco Spain was not threat
to world peace.

From JeweIry Store

The watches were valued at about

that about 20 of the watches had
been left by customers to be re-
paired The others were new. The
