Drop in Crime Reports
On Day of Wedding
Observed inLondon
By the Assoeiofsd Press

LONDON, Nov. 21.-Even
London's thieves behaved them
selves yesterday IN apparent
observation of Princess Eliza
beth's wedding.
Scotland Yard, which norm
ally receives about 80 calls be-
tween II am. and / pm. daily
reporting crimes, got only two
calls between those hours today.
And both were complaints of
minor offenses.
Only few pockets were
picked despite the huge throngs
which offered golden opportun-
tiles for light fingered thieves.
Maybe the thieves took a day
off to pay homage to Elizabeth"
a Scotland Yard inspector said.
After all, she's their Princess,
too"

cation of materials, rationing and
price-Wage controls.
They will have an opportunity to
do this at public hearings that will
be going on simultaneously in several
committees all next week. Some of
the COP strategists believe that
once administration witnesses begin
to specify commodities or wage
groups that might be controlled, the
Presidents recommendation in that
direction will lose some of their pop
ular appeal.
Mr.. Wolcott declared that if there
is an overall shortage of steel, allo-
cation of larger supply to auto
mobile making would produce more
cars. but the saving on auto prices
would be offset by further rise in
other appliances from which the
steel was diverted.
Doubts Price ROllback.
Mr.. Wolcott also asserted:
I'm being realistic we must recog-
nize that if the President is given
power to control prices, power to al
locate and ration and power to dis
criminate through the use of pri-
critics, yes, even if he is given the
power to control wages, he is not
going to roll back prices; he is not
going to roll back wages.
ITO do so, he knows, you know and
I know, would be diastrous. Is he
going to freeze wages and prices
where they are now To do so, he
knows, you know and I know, would
invite strikes, production slowdowns
and many other conditions which
would raise havoc with production.
Both Mr.. Wolcott and House Ma
jority Leader Halleck indicated last
night that reduction in Government
spending again will be a part of the
Republican program for meeting
both the foreign aid and imitation
problems.
Speaking to another audience in
New York, Mr. Halleck declared:
"By courageous, honest, states
manlike and careful action, we
should be able to meet our require
ments abroad, provided all neces-

Two Chicago Papers
Delayed, Typesefing
On Another Halted
BY the Assoeiofed Press

CHICAGO, Nov. 21.-Publication
Of Chicago's two morning newspa-
pers, the Tribune and the Sun, was
delayed for more than eight hours
today by a labor dispute with COM
posing room employees, and one aft
ernoon newspaper, the Times, said
typesetting had halted entirely in
its plant.
The Times, which used a photo
engraving process to make up its
paper, said in a joint statement
with the Sun, that the management
regards the action of the Typo
graphical Union as a strike"
However, another afternoon news
paper, the Herald-American, said it
had experienced no composing room
difficulties, and its first Friday edi-
tione was set on schedule.
The Daily News, an afternoon
newspaper, also said it expected to-
have its first edition ready almost
on time"
Size Drastically Cut.
'The Times appears today in dras-
llidllN lCuuC6u olEC dllll CllICl SCllCy
dress as a result of complete stop
page of production in the composing
ROOM" the Times said in a state
ment. The newspaper added 1t was
necessary to cut the size Of its issue
from a scheduled 96 pages to 80
pages.
Headquarters Of the Chicago local
Of the International typographical
Union declined comment on the al
legged halt of typesetting at the
Times, but earlier John J. Pilch,
president of the local. said there
absolutely, emphatically was no
strike at the Sun" He said the de-
lay was caused by the management,
which delayed on numerous occa-
sions in giving us answers to our
requests for information"
The two morning newspapers said
the delay in publishing their Friday
editions was because of slowdowns
of composing room employees, shop
meetings and conferences between
printers and management.
The first editions of the two
papers, which normally are on sale
at newsstands about $50 pm, were
not available until about 8 am,
about an hour after the meetings
and conferences broke up. Both
papers missed three editions.
Regarded as Strike.
The Sun, which at lis am. said
Its composing room employees had
for
which had lasted more than six
hours. said it regarded action of
the Typographical Union as a
strike
A statement at that time by the
Sun and Times-both papers use
the same facilities and are owned
or controlled by Marshall Field
said composing room employees had
refused to end their chapel meet
ing "of several hours duration"
mo wages will be paid to any en-
ploye who remains in the compos-
ing room and does no work." the
statement said.
There have been previous delays
In publication Of the two morning
papers and delays in publication
also have been reported by the
three afternoon dailies, the Daily
News, the Herald American and the
Times, since a breakdown in con-
tract negotiations between the pub
fishers of six Chicago dailies and
the Chicago local of the AF1L Typo /
graphical Union. The Chicago Jour-
nal of Commerce, morning f1nan-
cial paper, said it was 27 minutes
late in going to press last night
and 1t had reduced the size of its
paper IS per cent to cut composition
work.
Silent on Showdown Charge.
Mr. Pilch did not comment on the
publishers charges of showdown"
The Publishers Association has
Evening star., 1947-11-21

filed charges with the National La
Dor Relations Board asking an in
vestigation of the alleged slowdowns.
In the negotiations for a new
contract for one which expired on
october 81, the union proposed
posting conditions of employment"
rather than entering into a con-
tract with the publishers. This was
the policy adopted at the unions
recent convention in Cleveland. The
publishers. however, have insisted
on a written contract for one year,
saying that was in accordance with
past practice.
Woodruff Randolph, 1TU presi-
dent, was scheduled to report on
the deadlocked negotiations at a
meeting of the Chicago local Sun

before We bumped through rain
swept valley and rounded q lofty
mountain rising TO the southwest
from the Shenandoah Valley.
As We new along the brow Of the
mountain, at around 1,500 feet, Mr..
Morris shouted and pointed
There it Is" he said. and swerved
the small plane directly toward the
crest.
We passed over the scene, watch
ing intently for any movement that
might mean some of the so aboard
may not have perished.
There were no signs of life visible
ito us.
There was nothing but fame
scared wreckage.
500 Yards From Tip.
The crash scene is roughly 800
yards from the very tip of the
mountain, and maps place it just
within the West Virginia line. 1t is
directly on the radio beam between
Martinsburg, w. Va, and Washing
ton.
IF it had been 100 feet higher,
Mr.. Morris estimated. IT probably
would have cleared the crest. .
Just before we arrived over the
spot, the rain slackened and the
clouds lifted a little, making the
crest of the mountain visible.
We few over the spot five times,
Mr.. Griffin taking pictures and Mr..
Morris and l looking for a trail
which might serve to lead ground
parties to the scene.
No Trail Through Trees.
We saw no trail through the
thick trees. We estimated it would
take three hours. perhaps more,
for the ground forces to slash their
