Mrs. Stewart became uneasy and

to be cries for help.
She notified authorities who rush
ed to the dock and saw boats already
massed in the area of the accident
Glen Elder, owner of the fishing
scow Snippv, picked Moves up. Noyes

exposure today He said the bay was
calm when he and Stewart started

FACING NLRB;;
0LDCA5E5Up
Union Ch a I|enge Under
Taft-Hart|ey Act ARGUS
ing Apprehension

WASHINGTON, Aug. 26.-tR-
Officials of the National Labor
Relations Board voiced frank but
private apprehensions today over
what a union challenge might do
to their plans for applying new
Taft Hartley Act policy to $500 old
NLRB cases.
A CLIO official disclosed anony-
mously that some CLIO unions are
considering asking the courts to
rule on the legality of this pro-
cedure, because:
l. The Taft-Hartley law went
into full effect only last Friday
while,
2. The cases involve conditions
which existed under the Wagner
National Labor Relations Act.
In calling for separate review
of each of the old cases NLRB
General Counsel Robert N. Den
ham has expressed the opinion
they can be examined in the light
of the Taft-Hartley Act and moe
flied if necessary.
Some NLRB officials, however,
acknowledged that if number
of unions raised challenge to this
procedure in the form of court
suits the result might be to ham
string" the board pending a final
judicial determination.
Denham has had nothing to
fysy-. on this point.
In holding that the old cases
can be reviewed in the light OF
the new act, subject to possible
modification, the General Counsel
believes a good example is provid-
ed by a proceeding involving the
Geraldine Novelty Co.. Inc, OF
Gloversville, N. Y, and the Go
Fur and Leather Workers.

Warning Note
On Greece by
Legion sHead
Natl. Commander Demands
Special Congress Ses-
sion on Defense

NEW YORK, Aug. 26. = R-Na-
tional Commander Paul H. Griffith,
sounding serious warning amid the
festive preparations for the Ameri-
can Legions' goth annual convention
opening Thursday, said that the
critical situation which has develop
ed in Greece within the past few
hours could spread into world
conflagration on moments notice. y
Griffith called news conference
soon after his arrival from Wash
ington, D. c., where he said he had
talked to President Truman. Asked
by a reporter if he favored sending
troops abroad to support the Tru-
man Doctrine, the Legion Com
mander replied: 80
Should Send Troops
81 don't see how you can enforce
anything without using police. If it
takes troops we should send troops
IF and when Greece is invaded
there's no use to wait like we waited
before. If there is no other way to
stop them but to send troops, then
we should send troops"
Griffith, who lives in Uniontown
Pa, said that the Legion's executive
committee, which began pre-con-
vention sessions, was almost unani-
mously in favor of the Truman
policy "of aid to Greece and Tur-
key and any other small countries
having "a foreign theology forced
upon them"
Asked if he thought the United
Nations could resolve the situation
in Greece, where government crisis
developed over the weekend. Grit
fifth replied:
UN in Swaddling Clothes
IF the United Nations is mature
enough it should handle all world
affairs, but we believe the United
Nations is a baby in swaddling
clothes without the power to act
I don't believe the United Nations
is capable of acting at this time"
Griffith issued a prepared state
ment demanding a special session
of Congress for the specific pur-
pose of enacting universal military
training legislation and for the pur-
pose of strengthening our national
defense"
While the Legion leader disclosed
that preparedness would be the
theme" of the Legion convention
preparedness also was the watch
word of city officials who remember
that 100000 persons attended The
1897 convention here, when the Le-
gion had membership of million,
and don't know how many to expect
this year, with Legion membership
more than tripled. The parade is
expected to last IL hours.

CRISIS.IN
GREECE IS
UN5oLvED
American Attempts 10 Form
New Government Is
Pronounced Failure
tBy The Associated Press


American attempts failed to solve
the government crisis in strife
torn Greece today.
The situation in Greece, where
guerrilla warfare continued in the
north, was described in Washington
by Chairman Eaton (R-NO, of the
U. S. Foreign Affairs Committee,
as containing "all the elements for
touching off a major war"
A dispatch from Tehran, Iran,
said Iranian and diplomatic Off
Gals were investigating reports
that 10000 Barzani Kurdish tribes
men, backed by the Red Army"
had gathered in Russian Azerbai-
jan. One high diplomatic infor-
mant said this might be another
move in the Soviet war of nerves
on the eve of parliament's con-
sideration of the Russian Iranian
Gil agreement"
There is strong opposition in
Trans parliament to ratification
of the agreement, signed in Moscow
in 1916, to give Russia control OF
exploiting oil deposits in northern
Iran.
Bulgarian Crisis
In Bulgaria, meanwhile, the
Communication Fathsrland
Front government moved to out
law the principal opposition party
Nikoai Petkov's Agrarians. The
bill was expected to pass tomorrow.
Petkov himself is. under sentence
OF death on charges of plotting
against the government.
The Soviet Union today rejected
British-American request for
consultation on the sentence, hold
ing this would be tantamount to
interference in Bulgaria's internal
affairs.
Greece, Bulgaria's neighbor, was
in the grip of a crisis brought
about by the resignation of tha
cabinet of Populist tRoyalist) De-
METROS Maximos Saturday. Con-
Stantln TSaldaT1S, Premer-deSlg-
nate, has been unsuccessful thus
far in attempts to form new
government.
American attempts to solve the
crisis failed when Themistokles So
phoulis, 86-year- leader of the
main branch Of the Liberal party,
insisted at conference with U. S.
Ambassador Lincoln MacVeagh,
that he (Sophoulis) become pre-
mier.
Dwight P Griswold, admins
traitor of the s3O0,000,000 U. S. Aid
Program in Greece, conferred with
Sophoulis at his home last night
An authoritative source said Girls
void stressed the need for political
unity if the u S. aid mission was
to succeed.

distribution in the U. S. by the
British Information Service OF
Montgomery's amazing post-opera-

That Montgomery should COM

is that the British governments
should not only permit the report
to see the light of day, but to dis

SEATTLE, Aug. 26.-tR-A pow
erful Navy tug from Dutch Har-

486-ton Seattle Goldfish schooner
Wawona, buffeted by gales and
low on supplies after II days of un-
successfully trying to sail from
Boring Sea through Unimak Pass.
The 18th Naval District here
said the 156-foot, three masted
schooner asked for help yesterday,
and the Alaska Sea Frontier COM
mander in Kodiak ordered the tug
to proceed to the scene.
The Wawona, owned by the Rob-
inson Fisheries of Anacortes, has
no auxiliary engines. but previously
had completed several trips into
sub-Arctic waters.
The weather bureau said heavy
storms have swept alternately from

the tip of the Alaska Peninsula.
They said, however, that storm
conditions are expected to let up
slowly, minimizing any risk to the
stalled schooner.
