Labor Party Votes For Conscription

MARGATE, Eng. (P)-The La bor party voted by ratio of 1882 to 571 today in favor of peacetime conscription to back up the na- tion's foreign policy.
 The vote repulsed rebel ele- ments who argued this policy was too closely aligned with that of the United States and too antago- nistic to Russia.
 A draft bill for 12-month con- scription has passed the House of Commons.
 With Prime Minister Clement Attlee and nearly all of his cabi- net. attending, the party confer ence defeated by show of hands motion to permit Laborites to join the British-Soviet society. Opponents of the resolution said the society was dominated by Communists.
 Opponents of the House of Lords submitted a resolution calling for the creation of an elected upper House to replace the House of Lords as now constituted. The peers would be permitted to retain their heriditary titles, but no new hereditary titles would be ere ated.
 The resolution sought to prevent the predominantly conservative lords from stalling of blocking Socialist legislation.

Russia Not Coop
 erating In Austria

NEW YORK, (P)-Gen. Mark Clark, back from Europe to be- come Sixth Army commander, last night accused Russia of not perat;ng in Austrian rehabili- tation and said the Soviets fos- tered communism in their zone by giving communists more food and higher wages. He spoke last night on a radio program, "We the Peo- ple."
 "As far as the attitude of the Austrian people is concerned, free elections held throughout the nation resulted in an overwhelm- ing vote against Soviet influence" ," Clark said.
 '-But since the first election in the Soviet zone, extra food, high CT wages, and better rations have been given to Austrian workers who joined the community party
 "I am convinced that to be firm and definite in our relations with the Soviet Union does not increase the chances of war, but on the contrary reduces them"

BOY SCOUTS ON THE ALERT

Three boys made good use of their training yesterday afternoon as Boy Scouts.
 Johnnie and Harold Bell and Max Gray were outside the resi- dence of Bert Bell when they heard a call of distress from the ice floes on Boring Sea.
 The boys rushed to the beach where the Bell boys had a boat which was being repaired. They quickly righted the boat and drag ged it to the water while one of the Bell boys called his father. In no time they had oars, rope and even a tin can for bailing water in the boat. By the time Bert Bell reached the beach they were ready to take off and row out to the iceberg and rescue Andrew Kalarak, who they pulled into the boat and took to shore.
 Andrew Kalarak had been out on a hunting trip and had leaned over in his small boat to pick up bird when his boat capsized. Soon he realized that the boat was too small to keep him afloat so he kicked off his boots and swam to the nearest large cake of ice and started calling for help. He lost his shot gun and g rifle, as we'll as his boots, but is grateful to the alertness of the three mem bers of Troop 66, Boy Scouts, who were prepared" and rescued him.

Heavy Bomber Base Being Built At Mile 26

WASHINGTON, (P)-The army is further bolstering its northern defenseS with the construction of an S8,125,000 heavy bomber base in Alaska just two hours flight from the Bering Strait boundary between the U. s. and Russia.
 A war department announce ment of the new base came only a few days after disclosure that a similar heavy bomber field is be- ing installed in Maine-on the op- posite flank of the northern de- fense line.
 The Alaskan base will be locat- ed at Mile 26-26 miles southeast of Fairbanks-where an alternate landing field was built during the war for use of fighter aircraft caught in bad weather. New facili- ties will be for the Strategic Air Command, which operates B-29's and eventually will be equipped with new type heavy bombers.
 The Mile 26 base is a link in a network of Alaskan defenses now being improved.
 The defense concept includes the theory of immediate retalia- tory action against any aggressive move directed at the United States. The very heavy bomber bases are being built in accord ance with this theory.
 Here is what the army engineer corps says will be built at Mile 26;
 A new runway; a hangar sim liar to one ordered for another very heavy bomber base at Rapid City, S. D.; having single span of $40 feet (The B-36 has a wing span of 230>feeD; barracks for 400 men; base headquarters building and various workshops and ware houses; spur railroad track from Ladd Field, at Fairbanks.
 The army said that the Mile 26 project twill be planned with the view of using the maximum amount of materials available To- cally."
 The engineers also have issued another directive for construction of motor pool facilities, laundry and dry cleaning plant, central heating and power plant, ware house and dock and other utilities at Whittier Port, Alaska. An ex- penditure of $2,840,845 is author ized for this project.

Congress Busy With Taxes, Labor And Budget

WASHINGTON (P)-Democrat- ic Representative Cannon of Mis- Souri, after look at the sharply GU. agriculture appropriation bill, declared today Republicans have tossed the farmers to the lions."
 The bill, offered by the COP controlled appropriations commit tee, slashed President Truman's budget recommendations 32 per cent to $8O5, ,243,00O.
 Cannon, ranking Democrat on the committee, said the measure is "the worst bill of it's kind ever sent to the House floor" He said he will lead a Democratic fight against the proposed reductions.
 Rep. Gore D.-TennO said Dem ocrats will carry the issue into the l948 Congressional elections if the reductions are approved
 House Republicans are driving to cut President Truman's 1948 budget by 100000. Thus far, by their own figures, they are S3 325,00O,O00 short of their mark.
 The agriculture department bill makes heavy cuts in the farm ten ant, soil conservation, school lunch and crop insurance programs.
 Action of the House in approv- ing an increased tariff on wool was viewed by opponents of the measure as threat to success of the 18-nation international trade conference in Geneva.
 If the bill becomes law, the American delegation at Geneva will be unable to make any agree ments involving lower trade bar "iers here on wool imports.
 Rep. Cooley D.-N. e. told re- porters President Truman will have mo other choice" than to veto the measure.
 AS passed by the Senate the bill called for government payments to domestic wool growers, equal to the l946 level. But the House Friday added a clause which in effect would direct the President to order the tariff commission to increase the present import levy on wool if imports threaten to un- dercut the support program.
 Senator Millikin R.-Colo) pre- diets the Senate will reject pro- posals to hike income tax exemp- tions and to make community property laws apply to all states.
 The proposals were offered Fri day by Senator Mcclellan CR.-
