Bow 10 Governments s UI- timafum Ending Month
 of General Strikes
By REMBERT JAMES

PARIS, Dec. 1o.-A-A month of labor strife and Communist engineered strikes ended today on the deadline of a government ultimatun, and foreign diplomats said France could count now on at least a month of industrial peace to patch up the damage.
 The Communists dominated Gen. eral Ccnferedation oi Labor tCGT bowed to the governments demand last night and ordered the strikers back on the governments terms of settlement.
 About 100000 workers still were out when the settlement was reached, but the strike movement had been collapsing rapidly Be- tween 100000 and 3.000,00O men were idle at it's peak.
 The foreign diplomats said they expected a new Communist on- slaught on the nations economy be- fore bolstering American aid might make such an attack too late to be effective.

LONDON, Dec. 10.-tR-Secretary of State Marshall charged tonight that Russia is taking assets from Eastern Germany at rate of more than s500,000,000 yearly and he demanded that the withdraw als be halted effective January 1.
 Marshall told the Council of Foreign Ministers:

 The rehabilitation of Germany, he said, is vital ta Eufopean re- covery. In an apparent effort to force a showdown, the American Secretary declared:

The W ashlngto ion Merry -Go Round
by DREW PEARSON

WASHINGTON = It's unWrltten tradition that freshmen Senators shall be seen and not heard. The present crop, however, is getting more and more restless under Taft leadership, and is clamoring for a bigger voice in party councils. As a result, first termers went into a recent huddle around the dinner table at the Metropolitan Club.
 After a three-hour, nip-and-tuck session, they agreed to meet to- gether one evening each week, and present their views afterWard to older Senators at the Republican policy committee It was also de- clded to keep the conferences secret from the press, but Montana's Sen- ator Zales Ecton caustically re- marked, T suppose we'll see a full account in Drew Pearson's col umn"
 Actually it has been the custom for Senate newcomers to lunch to- gether once a week, but this has been more social than business. The new plan to take full eve ming and settle down to serious exchange of ideas was urged by Connecticut's enterprising Senator Ray Baldwin
 We must work out our ideas together, and present them to the leadership" he declared. This would not cause cleavage between the freshmen and old timers, he argued, since a fair cross section of Senate opinion is represented among the freshmen Republicans.
 This was soon demonstrated when Minnesota's frank Senator Ed Thye, ex-Governor and poul- try farmer, compared the Repub- lican party to man with one end of a rope around his neck and the other tied to a horse. This is no time, he warned, to swat the horse on the trump.
 Thye referred to the dilemma in which the Presidents price pro- gram left the Republicans. The best politics, he suggested, would be to give Truman the powers he asks and let him hang himself

FEEDING THE HUNGRY

Washington - The United
States will remain the worlds
breadbasket for many months
to come - at least until the
harvest of 1913.
That's the conclusion top
food officials in the Federal
Government are reaching af-
ter a study of foreign crop
prospects and a perusal of the
first chapter of ex-President
Herbert Hoover's report on
famine conditions in occupied
Germany.
This abrupt change in the
thinking of key agricultural
economists means the u. S.
will be helping feed a large
part of Europe and Asia for
a longer period than anyone in
this Capital thought likely a
few months ago.

Peace has brought no slump
to Gulf sulphur, as it did to
some other basic ingredients
that go into industry's melting
pots, such as steel and coal.
Output hit new records during
the war and it's still swelling.
Peacetime factories soak up
sulphuric acid and it's sister
sulphur products as thirstily as
the war plants did. Some Gulf
sulphur now goes to plants
that used imported pyrites
(sulphur bearing minerals)
before the war. And more than
one out of every four tons is
exported to industry overseas.
Last year the six Gulf Coast
mines - five in Tevas, near
Houston, one in Louisiana -
went down deep into hard
rock and brought up 3.8 mil
lion long tons of native sui
phur.
Sulphur production costs
here are kept down by near
by natural gas fields.
Sulphur mines" are really
wells. Superheated water and
compressed air are forced a
quarter-mile or more into the
earth through concentric pipes
and up comes molten sui
phur. Still hot and liquid, the
sulphur is piped into corrals
of corrugated sheet steel.
When it cools below 239 de-
grees it solidifies.
