French Paper Predicts
Unificaiion Of u. 5.
And British Armies
BY the Associated Press

l. LONDON, Jan. 2.-British officials
ushered in the New Year with the
disclosure that Britain and the
United States are at work on joint
officer training as well as arms
Standardization, and the Paris news
paper L'Aurore simultaneously fore-
cast eventual unification of the two
armies under a secret accord it said
would be signed March Is.
In Washington, Representa-
tive Andrews of New York, who
becomes chairman of the House
Military Affairs Committee when
Republicans organize the House
tomorrow, said he had no knowl-
edge of such an agreement and
could not comment on it.
"I would want to know more
about the details and have
something ofiicial from this side
before I commented" Mr.. AM
drews said)
The Air Ministry announced last
night that the Royal Air Force and
the United States Army Air Forces
were planning to start joint training
with the exchange of 80 to 40 officers
each, to be expanded toward an up
ward limit of 100 each. The ex-
change was expected to be effected
'in the near future"
Aurore, a Socialist paper, had re-
ported earlier that the predicted
March IS agreement would call for
Joint defense In the event either
Britain or the United States was
attacked.
Yesterday it added that equipment
of the two armies would be made
uniform: That British officer train
ing would be patterned after West
Point training, and that Canada
would become the first proving
ground of unifcation. The goal, the
paper said, is a single fighting arm,
with posts from the North Pole to
the Rio Grande and from Asia
Minor to Japan.
A British official, who asked re-
porters not to give his name, said
experts discussing arms standard
ization were starting at the bottom
and working their way" upwards. "
He reported no decision yet to
standardize all British and Ameri-
can military equipment, but he did
not rule out this possibility.
Britain, he said, "is not averse to
standardizing military equipment
with the Russians" He told news
men that Field Marshal Lord Mont
gomery, British chief of staff, would
bring back any Soviet proposals on
the subject from his visit to Moscow
this month but did not plan to talk
arms reduction.
Informed quarters said American
flying colonels and Raj group cap
tains-the equivalent rank-would
lead small groups of officers ex-
changed under the new joint air
training pldL.
The officers, the Air Ministry said,
are to be put into schools or at
tached to commands and STATS to
be trained in staff methods, tactics,
and research.
Whether American airmen would
serve only in the British Isles was
not yet decided, it was understood,
but the Laborite Daily Herald fore
cast that they will be able to serve
with our units overseas"
The Communist Daily Worker de- /
clared that yesterdays announce
ments proved that British armed
forces are being rapidly tied hand
and foot behind all the most ruth
less and aggressive tendencies in
capitalism"

Taking the direct approach to Langer on the Senate floor, Sena- tor Johnston said: You're an honest man.

made with the full consent and knowledge of Scol but that Sundborg objected all the way 50 we had to go ahead without him"
 Bartlett places a great deal of blame on the Maritime Commission in the controversy. But it does not seem logical to that the Commission is going to grant rate increases to the steamship companies serving Alaska where they are not justified It stands to reason that the companies could not operate on the same rates they had in effect before the war, or a few years ago. Their costs have gone up, too just as they have in every business. And the disastrous strikes which plagued the shipping industry forced the costs up even higher
 We believe the Maritime Commission has been very generous to Alaska in subsdizng the Alaska shipping operation, and cannot believe that MT Bartletts views on the matter entirely accurate.

bstering blast against the Seattle shipping operators was delivered in Congress the other day by Alaska Delegate E. L. Bartlett. He accused them of "legalized punder7 charged that freight rates have been increased 60 per cent that rates on the shipment of canned salmon too low, that the operators are ruthless masters of AlaSkans.
 The other day in Anchorage, L. w. Baker Gen erl Manager of the Alaska Steamship Company asked the people of Alaska to give the steamship companies credit for common horse sense.' Baker said that rates were increased 35 per cent He said the canned salmon industry took good jolt in the new "ate schedules and it's because it did that your rates dld not go any higher He said the increase in rates on canned salmon was more than 50 per cent
 Baker claims that the government under the interim shipping plan, is "subsidizing Alaska for 50 per cent of the coSt-not the steamship companies.
 He said that without the government ald the companies would have had to have an increase Of 80 per cent to avoid loss
 Baker claimed that all the companies can profit is 6 per cent and that it only logical to expect that if the companies make under the interim plan we will reduce rates instead of giving the money to the government.
 Baker also revealed that in working out the rate increases David Scoll attorney for the Alaska De veopment Beard and George Sundborg, former man ager both participated He said the new rates were

WALL STREET TEAMS UP
 WITH LEWIS

When Harry Truman and Cabi- net colleagues first heard that J. P Morgan's U. S. Steel Corporation and the Mellon n-controlled Pitts burgh Consolidated Coal Company had handed John L. Lewis 45- cents -an-hour wage increase, plus welfare funds, plus almost every thing else he asked for, they were flaktergasted shellshocked and left gasping for air.
 And though they are still some what stunned, they have begun to rub their e5es and try to figure out wLat hidden motives the Mel Ions and the Morgans had in giv- ing John l. Lewis the greatest con- tract in labor history. By now they think they know the solution poi .cs, and Dewey politics at that
 To understand MT. Truman $ sense of shock it should be remem- bered that many people considered him something of a hero last De cember for skipping down John L Lewis
 Furthermore, it was only ono year ago that the coal operators complained bitterly about Secretary of the Interior Krug's giving Lewis an increase of 18i2 cents-the samt increase already given the steel auto, and other unions. The Gov ernment, according to the walls of the operators. was surrendering all their profits to John L.
 Reversing all this, Ben Fairies, of U. s. Steel and George Humph- rey of Pittsburgh Consolidated Coal have now given Lewis everything he asked for. In fact, they have given him more than he eyel dreamed he could get.
 As usual Lewis had started out by putting his demands high. Ii he had followed previous patterns he would have accepted com promise considerably lower. But he didn't have to. As he saw the big ccal and steel companies willing to yield, he increased his demands ard even tackled on provisions nulli- flying the Taft Hartley Labor Act His victory makes every other la

 Actually the Hungarian coup is the best ustifica- tion to date of the Truman policy It shows us exactly what planned in Greece and what would certalnly have happened if the United States had not inter- vened.

LEWIS LOVES DEWEY

i Truman Administration Sleuths busy all week trying to find out why the steel industry surrendered so supinely, now think they have found the answer
 John L. Lewis, sworn enemy of the Democratic Party, for some time has been making quiet politi- cal love to Tom Dewey. It was known that during the Taft-Hart- ley battle, Lewis and Big Bill Hutcheson, head of the AFL Car penters Union, sent word to Albany urging that Dewey keep mum about the labor bill Whether because ! of this advice or his own shrewd political judgment, Dewey said ab- 5olutely nothing
 Now that the battle is over, Lewis plans to revive labors Non- partisan League, hopes to weld this into potent force to back Dewey, and , has vowed to destroy both Taft, whom he hates, and Truman, who used the Supreme Court and an injunction against him.
 In return for Lewis support of Dewey, administration leaders claim a deal was worked out by which J. p. Morgan's U s. Steel Cor roration, and the Mellon-cCntrolled Pittsburgh Consolidated Coal Com rany boosted Lewis prestige with lator by handing him the juicicst contract ever negotiated.
 They also point out that the in- crease to Lewis doesn't cost the s.ccl companies a cent, since they merely pass it on to the consumer. And since all the steel sold abroad is peid for by U. & loans to for eign governments, they don't have ito worry about it's price there either.

 that not only the cost Of steel

I0f Latin America Plot
After Arms Seizure
BY the Assoeioted Press

| The State Department says three
Latin American republics have called
this country's attention to the seizure
of unauthorized arms shipments in
Mexico and New Orleans.
! The Ambassadors of Costa Rica,
Nicaragua and Honduras left a
memorandum with Acting Secretary
Acheson regarding the incidents, the
department said last night.
It's statement added, however, that
"the department knows of no plot
to overthrow the governments Of
these three countries"
Earlier, a diplomatic official who
withheld use of his name had told
reporters the department had been
informed of such a plot and had
been given the names of two other
Latin American nations alleged to
be involved in it.
''The memorandum did not attach
responsibility for such shipments to
any other country" the subsequent
statement by the department said.
"Its purpose was merely to bring
officially to the attention of the de-
partment these previously mentioned
reports"
TIE reports described the seizure
Of a truckload of small arms in
Mexico in February together with
two men believed to be Nicaraguans,
and of two LISTS Qanding ships
containing arms and ammunition in
New Orleans March 2.
Many political exiles from Costa
Rica, Nicaragua and Honduras live
in neighboring countries, where
they campaign for change in gov
ernments which would permit their
return.

in Mexico were in charge of Mic
