nit alright inspection is certain
to be so unprecedentedly great that
governments should not be asked
at this time to surrender further
powers not required for atomic en-
ergy control.
The pamphlet also mentions
among the problems still to be met
the difficult one of distributing
atomic energy facilities among the
nations of the world, negotiating
ratios of productive facilities, rates
of extraction of raw materials, and
the location of installations.
CDR. Fox's analysis of a possible
basis for compromise is not put

Green Calls On Labor
To Give Full Support
I. Tn American Day

Washington, D. C.-AFL Presi-
dent William Green, in a letter to
all State Federations Of Labor
and City Central Bodies, urged
wholehearted support of the OBJ
servance of 81 Am An American
Day. on Sunday, May 18, and
coupled this with the request for
a nationwide observance of "Na-
tional Citizenship Week" which
will begin May II.
In his message to affiliates of
the American Federation of Labor
Mr.. Green said:
Because of the attack which is
being made upon our freedom and
liberty and constitutional rights,
through the introduction of anti
labor legislation, it seems most
fitting and appropriate that we
enter into the observance of 4
Am An American Day and 'Citi-
zenship Week in spirit and in pur-
pose. ~
Il therefore call upon the mem
bership of the American Feder-
alton of Labor, through city CEN
trail labor unions and State Feder-
ations vof Labor, to participate in
the observance Of these occasions
in full measure. Join with civic
groups and patriotic organizations
in an impressive observance of
these events" ~

Comment On World Events

Article 81 of the United Nations
Charter provides for a basis for
possible compromise or an atomic
energy control plan which bypass
es the veto problem, DR.. William
1. K. Fox contends in The Strug-
gle for Atomic Control, 323-page
pamphlet just issued by the Public
Affairs Committee, Inc. of New
York.
If it could be agreed that illicit
production or storing or fashionable
materials constitutes evidence of
Intent to ommit armed attack.

proceed to take enforcement actor.
without waiting for explicit Sc
onrity Council approval" points
out DIR. Fox, who is associate pro-
lessor of poiisical science at Yale
University.
(Article 81 of the Charter de-
clares: Nothing in the present
Charter shall impair the inherent
right of individual or collective
self-defense if an armed attack oc-
ours against a member of the
United Nations. ~
To secure the approval of those
who want to make enforcement
action as nearly certain as possi-
BILE, DR.. Fox suggests that ZEN
forcement action as nearly certain
as possible, DIR. Fox suggests that
enforcement action under Article
81 might be made compulsory by
a treaty requiring each country
to take immediate action once a
violation has been officially de-
clared... ...uch action would be with
in the framework of the Charter
but would not have to wait for the
Security Council. The veto would
not give even legal protection to
an atomic aggressor.
The prospects for general ac-
ceptance of an international con-
troll plan are complicated by the
many political conditions which a
control treaty must meet, some of
which the pamphlet lists:
(D No country wishes to give
down. (2) Although plans for en-
up its capacity to defend itself if
the atomic control plan breaks
down. (2) Although plans for en-
forcement action may not have to
be negotiated simultaneously, the
plan of setting up the world con-
troll authority must be negotiated
as a whole and put into effect as
rapidly as possible.
(3) Prestige and power con-
sideration alike demand that the
major countries seem to sacrifice
about equally at each stage of put
ting the plan into effect. (4) The

the Labor Committee"
Mr. Hartley, his face red, told
the House he would not use his
own words in reply to remarks
that might more properly have
been withheld"
Mrs. Norton was drafted into
politics by Mayor Frank Hague of
Jersey City, her home town, after
she had attracted wide local at
tention for her work in helping to
care for underprivileged children
during World War /.
In her first venture into politics
in 1923 she was elected a free
holder = supervisor of Hudson
County. She resigned to campaign
for Congress and was elected in
1924 and has been successively re-
elected.
She has a sparkling wit that
even lengthy sickness last year
couldn't begin to erase. Almost
fully recovered now, Mrs. Norton
says, 81 only have to be careful"
She describes her IL successive
terms in Congress as a great ex-
perience" and says she fully ex-
poets to seek another.
Sometimes, she says, develop
ments on the House floor "make
me so angry that | could almost
cry"
''But / wouldn't. I'd choke first
and then go home and have

Washington, d. C. - Represen-
tative Mary Norton, Democrat of
New eJrsey, who told her House
colleagues she had "no respect" for
the man who succeeded her as
chairman of the House Labor Com
mittee, said she had no apology for
her statement.
81 gave a plain answer to a plain
question:" she said in a quite en-
phatic statement.
Mrs. Norton, first woman to be
elected to Congress under woman's
suffrage, made her denunciation of
Chairman Hartley, New Jersey
Republican, during debate on pro-
posed new labor Legislation.
Asked by Repres tive
O'Toole, of New Jersey, why she
chose to resign in this session of
Congress from the Labor Commit
tee which she had headed for 10
years, Mrs. Norton, with no show
of emotion, and looking straight at
Mr.. Hartley, replied:
Frankly, in one sense, | regret

"But | have no respect for the

Stocks moved through a sea-saw
market today and finished on the
downside.
1t was the first time since
Sept. 26 that shares had lost
ground on two days in success
sion. The Associated Press 60
stock composite was off q of a
point at 67.2.
Early advances by favored in
dustrials were smothered by
ready selling orders. The list
then drifted indifferently until
the final hour when a faint up
ward move in the rails was short
lived and the carriers sagged
along with pivotal industrials
to lows for the day. Slight stiff
ening of prices preceded the
close but dips of fractions to
more than a point persisted.
For the eighth successive full
session transfers topped a mill
ion shares totaling 1850, 900
against 100000 Tuesday. Of
1853 issues registering there
were 455 declines and 339 ad-

NEW YORK, Oct. %. - (P) -
Cotton futures firm today with
gains of $1.20 tc $3.50 a bale,
as a late wave of trade buying
met a scarcity of offerings.
Traders had been looking for a
reaction because covering opera
tons in future against the gov
eminent cotton purchase have
been largely completed. When
this failed to materialize, mills
rushed to cover contracts against
textile sales.
Light hedging, despite heavy
sales of spot cotton at primary
markets, and optimistic predlc-
tons on textile sale prospects
next year by industry leaders,
accounted for commission house
buying.
Trade observers said mills and
merchants brought spot cotton
more actively, but much of it
was carried on an unhedged basis
because of the tight statistical
situation.
Futures closed $1.20 to $3.50
a bale higher than the previous
close.
