SILVER SHIRTER
T0STAY IN JAIL
William Dudley Pelley
Fails To Get Review BY
Supreme Court

WASHINGTON, Oct. 27 -W.D-
The Supreme Court today re-
fused to hear a plea by William
Dudley Pelley, former Silver
Shirt leader, to be released
from Jail.
He began serving a 15-year
term at the federal penitentiary
in Terre Haute, Ind, in 1912
for sedition, but was trans
ferred to the city Jail here for
the governments mass sedition
trial in 1943. The proceedings
ended in a mistrial with tn e
death of the presiding judge
late in l943, but Pe]ley was kept
here pending Justice depart
ment efforts to revive the case.
The one time Silver Shirt
leader brought suit in federal
district court here last January,
challenging his original convic-
ton and seeking his release. He
claimed that women were ex-
cluded from the jury panel, that
the trial court was hostile, and
that the U. S. attorney was per-
mitted to make inflamatory
statements to the jury.

PEACE PUBLICITY
Continued From Page One)

The committee, in a whirlwind
of ballots, then approved the COM
promise resolution which now
goes to the full General Assemb-
ly for action. Under the resolu-
ton, the General Assembly would
state that it:
81. Condemns all forms of prop
uganda, in whatsoever country
conducts, which is either design
ed or likely to provoke or en-
courage any threat to the peace,
breach of the peace, or act of ag-
gression.
90. Requests the government of
each member to take appropriate
steps within its constitutional
limitations CAY to promote, by all
means of publicity and propa-
ganda available to them, friendly
relations among nations based
upon the purposes and principles
of the (UN) charter; and (B) to
encourage the dissemination of
all information designed to give
expression to the undoubted de-
sire of all peoples for peace"
In section-by-section votes, the
part condemning war propaganda
was approved, SIS to 0; and the
two requests for government pub
licity for peace were approved in
two 56-to-0 votes.
Austin Pleased
Austin later told reporters that
the United States was able to
vote for the compromise plan be-
cause the original Soviet resolu-
ton - the principal Russian pro-
posal at this session of the Gen
eral Assembly - was rejected.
"This is wonderful to have us
all vote the same way" Austin
said. II hope it is sign of a
change in the atmosphere here"

acknowledge radio calls grant
ing his requested change of
flight plan. Bucking strong head
winsd, the big transport plane
had fuel for only another three
or four hours flight at the time
of its disappearance.
Widest Search
Military and airline authori-
ties strained every effort in
what Pan American officials said
was "the biggest search in Alas
kan history"
Two Army Bits with drop
pable life-boats, a long-range c.
AZ transport, four Coast Guard
amphibians and flying boats,
three Pan-American Clippers
and 10 light planes - "every
available plane" swept low
beneath scudding rain clouds in
an attempt to complete the
search mission before weather
halted air operations.
Coast Guard cutters and a
fleet of fishing boats nosed
through hundreds of inlets and
bays along the rugged coastline
on the chance the plane might
have been forced down at sea.
Parties of Indians and loggers
trudged along the coastal val
leys between Ketchikan and
Juneau.
Hopes were slim, however,
that Monson, a 47-year-old form
er. bushpilot from Juneau, might
have ridden out the storm and
made a successful emergency

r. N. Batra, deputy prime
minister of Kashmir who flew to
New Delhi yesterday, said 1000
Mos1ems, including soldiers on
leave from the Pakistan army, in
vaded Kashmir last Wednesday.
This force has been joined by
Kashnir Moslems who have re-
volted against the Maharajah's re-
ported intention to join the pre-
dominantly Moslem state to the
Dominion of India.
Although Kashmir is India's
second largest princely state, the
Indian government was said to be
not anxious for it to join the In
dian union. Kashmir is bounded
mostly by Pakistan, the Soviet
Union, Tibet and China. It is con-
nected to the Indian union by only
a small neck of land.
However, a reliable source said
acceptance of Kashmir into the
union would tend to weaken In.

officials, nor the adviser who
discussed the problem today,
indicated what commodities are
being eyed.
The White House called in
some 100 leaders of business,
labor and agriculture for an all
day, off-the-record meeting, to
talk over economic problems,
! foreign and domestic.
Secretary of State Marshall
and Secretary of Commerce
Hartman were among the
speakers, and it was assumed
their talks covered Mr.. Tru-
mans appeal for aid to Europe
and his efforts to check rising
prices. The President himself
did not appear.
Preparations went forward to-
day for the special session of
Congress beginning Nov. II.
Senator Taft (R-Ohio) sum-
moned the Senate Republican
Policy committee, which he
heads, to meet Nov. IA and lay
it's plans.
At a news conference in Bos-
ton today, Taft suggested that
the special session can be end
ed Dec. 19-in time for a Christ
mas holiday. BY that date, he
said, action can be completed
on the Marshall plan or other
long-range program for Euro
pean aid.
The President will place the
entire Marshall plan before
Congress during the session,
Taft predicted, as well as an
anti-inflation program and
emergency proposals for Euro
