u. S. Policy Palestine
Unaltered: Marshall

WASHINGTON (WNS) = Sec
retary of State George c. Mar
shall, clarifying letter he had
written in answer to a query
made by group of 80 Republic
ans in Congress regarding Amer
lean policy on Palestine, declared
at press conference that there
has been no change in American
policy and that the position taken
by the American delegate at the
U. N. was in no way indicative
of any change of American policy.
Mr.. Marshall said that America
was interested in the creation of
an international commission to in
vestigate the problem and that
he was of the opinion that a neu-
tral commission, instead of one
including representatives of the
Great Powers, would best serve
the purpose.
In his letter to the Congress
men, the Secretary of State as
serted that it was premature for
the United States to announce
it's Palestine policy at this time
and that no decision could be
made by the United States re-
garding a Palestine trusteeship
before the Mandatory Power has
requested such a change.

Group Submits
2 Plans Jewish
State To L. n.

New York, (Palcor)-The Ma
ton Associates, an organization
of six liberal American groups,
which previously asked the Unit
ed Nations to bar Arabs and
British from any inquiry COM
mittee on Palestine and demand
ed a hearing for the Jewish
Agency before the General As
sembly, submitted to the UN a
130 page document listing COM
parative Jewish and Arab con-
tributions to the War effort, Jew
ish achievements in Palestine
since the Balfour Declaration and
outlining two plans for the crea-
ton of a Jewish State. The group
demands immediate action by the
UN on interim and long term So
lutions of the Palestine problem
and demands that it make ar
rangements for the immediate ad-
mission of 25O,OOO of the 100000
"who must come to Palestine"
The interim proposal calls for
withdrawal of the Mandate from
Britain, and initiation, by the UN,
of the Jordan Valley project and
other similar economic develop
ments, and immigration under the
jurisdiction of the Jewish Agency.
For an ultimate solution the group
proposes the following two plans:
One-a Jewish State of 14,400
square miles, 1000 of which would
include western Palestine, and the
other 5000, now uninhabited or
sparsely settled, to be detached
from Transjordan; two-a Jewish
State of 1900 square miles in

New York, (Palcor)-The New

problem, stating that the sessions

confidence in either the purposes

The Arab nations are doing their
best to bend the gathering to the
purposes of Arab nationalism; and
how imperious a force national

fact that Jinnah and even Nehru

Over 200 people attended the

American Christian P ale S tin e
Committee which was held at the
Tucson High School Auditorium
last week.
Following the symposium, a
resolution was adopted BY the en-

following points:
l. That pending UN committee
findings, Great Britain remove all
restrictions on land purchase; and
permit immigration restricted
only by the economic absorptive
capacity of the land:
2, That the US urge England
to accept the recommendations of
the UN Committee:
3. That the United States con-
tinues its historic policy of sup
porting a Jewish national home
in Palestine, with such a policy
at the meetings of the UN.
Copies of the resolution will be
forwarded to the White House and
leading officials.
At the high school meeting,
Rabbi Joseph Gumbiner, Temple

House Group 10 Hold
Hearing in January
On Strike Curb Plan
By the Associoted Press

The House Labor Committee will

whether there should be law
against interference by strikers with
"the civil rights of workers who
want to stay on the job," Chairman
Hartley announced today.
He said the first witness January
10 will be Cecil B. De Mile, Holly
wood movie producer.
"We are not planning any strike
breaking measure" Mr.. Hartley said
in an interview. "But if more than
so per cent of the workers in plant
want to keep on working they should
have the righ to do it," He added:
What we are interested in doing
is to bring about respect for law
and order in American industrial
disputes. We want to put stop to
violence and intimidation, cut out
the muscle fexing and Danish the
union 'goon squads with their clubs" :"
Mr.. Hartley said leaders of both
labor and industry will be invited to
give their viewpoints.
In separate interview, Rep.
Nixon, Republican, of California, a
member of the Labor Committee,
told newsmen in general the groups
policy next year probably will soft
pedal any fresh curbs on labor.
Mr.. Nixon said there is a growing
feeling in Congress that something
will have to be done to control Pc
trillo-referring to James c. Pc
trillo, president of the AFL Ameri-
can Federation of Musicians.
"Otherwise, the chances on any
tough labor legislation are slim," he
said. "The tendency will be to clarity

some respects, in the light of needs
proved by experience.

The thing that Wanda had seen was there,
but Emma could not find it IN her mirror:
The almost unlined face was set. mmobile,

that looked out of the almost young eyes was
a tired Emma, almost ready to give up. These
things she could not see, as she also could
not see her precise little walk, her micky,
small gestures.
The invitation came just before Emmas
vacation, and when her holiday turned out
as it did, she somehow blamed it on that
engraved message. Imagine, Sophie Placek's
daughter graduating from high school! And
the little note Sophie had tucked in with the
announcement: Emma. remember when we
