In Deepest Sorrow

a way to keep you on the job al
winter"
On the otherhand, too cautious
business, profit minded to con-
tinue, sees labor as its biggest
cost factor. There's little hesita-
tion in handing out pink layoff
slips.
Our day by day living in this
valley--on the part of working
men and business is keyed to the
insecurity that comes with snow.
Welcome will be the day when
there's coming down to earth
and a real sincere effort on the
part of the people who live here
to lick these problems.
We do not propose that the solu-
tion is simply more committees On
obtaining industries for the Flat
head valley. 1t must be realized
that colder weather reduces out
put of men working out-of-doors.
Yet our wage structure is keyed to
a summer scale.
Sacrifice on the part of man
agement and labor might produce
a continued use of the nations
greatest resource-man hours
instead of our form of the dole.
Men here would rather work.
Such problems are not for a
newspaper to solve, but we'd like
20 see management, labor and the
rest of us try for a solution. MR.

Soviet Press Attacks
Truman Defense Call
In Congress Address
by The kssoeiossd Prsss

MOSCOW. Mar. 24.-Ths Soviet
press today carried attacks on
President Truman's address to the
joint session Of Congress.
AL newspapers carried a Tass
dispatch from Washington which
reported "an extraordinary growth
Of war expenditures in the United
States following Truman's message"
The government newspaper Il.
vestia attributed to Secretary Of
State Marshall q statement that
the question Of an American for.
eign legion of Japanese and Ger.
mans Is being studied" The three
column article went on to say this
was q violation Of the Potsdam
agreement and other international
obligations Of the United States.
The Literary Gazette, which fire.
quently has attacked American
leaders, asserted that Truman and
company exposed themselves as ag-
gressors by their yelps of hysteria."
The article, by N. Tikhonov, added:
simultaneously they exposed
their fear, terror and weakness"
Another article along similar lines
in the Literary Gazette was labeled
"Hysteria as Business" Still an
other attacked the Truman admin
istration in general.
The Gazette featured a photo
montage showing President Truman
atop a Wall Street skyscraper,
a drum for war.

| Arlington Tombstones
Use for Tavern Walk
| ~
Investigated by Army

Use Of grave markers believed
taken from Arlington National
Cemetery to construct a sidewalk
near an Arlington tavern was under
investigation today by the provost
marshal OF the military district Of
Washington.
Fifteen Of the markers. officials
said, were found laid end to end,
forming a pathway from a driveway
to q side entrance of the Owl tav-
ern, In the 1700 block Of Wilson
boulevard. Arlington.
The white marble headstones,
about three feet long and rounded
at the top, were laid face down, but
inscriptions remained on the fac
ings. Two Of them read:
Elizabeth. wife of Admiral Hugh
Rodman, October 13, 1922
GLADYS. wife Of Capt. F. @. Fab
rion, September "A, 1874"
Of1cials speculated that the stones
are old grave markers which have
been replaced by new ones by fami-
lies. Customarily. when a new stone
is put up. the old one is taken to a
corner of the cemetery for removal
Of the inscription they pointed out.
Investigators said they understood
operators of the tavern have been
in Pennsylvania, but were to return
today.
A spokesman for the provost mar
shall said he did not know what ac-
ton would be taken. But it is OBJ
vious that the stones were removed
before the inscriptions were taken
of, contrary to cemetery regula-
tons" he said.

SEC 70 Open Hearing
April Tin Collapse Of
Kaiser Stock Sale
BY The Assoeiassd Press

The Securities and Exchange
Commission today prepared to OPEN
a public investigation into the COL
lapse of banking agreement to sell
$4,000 900 OF Kaiser Frazer stock.
Announcing the inquiry last night,
the SEC said the hearings sched-
uled here April IL are to determine
whether fraud or illegal stock
manipulation were involved.
SEC investigators have been look
ing into the sudden withdrawal on
February Of Otis & Co. of Cleve-
land and the First California Co.
of San Francisco from q contract
to offer 100000 shares Of Kaiser
Frazer common stock to the public
at $13 share.
It's order for a public investiga-
ton, the commission said, lis not to
be construed as determination that
any provisions Of the statutes or the
commissions rules have been vio-
lated"
It added: "The purpose Of the
public investigation will be to de-
termine whether any person
has violated the anti-fraud, anti
manipulation and short-selling pro-
visions of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1884"
Another reason for the inquiry,
the SEC said, is it's desire to learn
whether it's rules should be changed
or new laws recommended for con-
gressional approval.
Commission officials have said a
special effort will be made to find
out the identity of heavy sellers
of the motor firms stock on Feb
ruary 4. On that day, Kaiser
Frazer bought about 10000 shares
Of it's own stock in an effort to
stabilize the price in preparation
for It's offering to the public.
The motor company spent about
$2,500, 900 buying back its own stock.
1t was to have received about $10,-
10000 from the stock sale.
An SEC official said scheduled
witnesses include prominent finan-
cial figures. 1t is a reasonable as
sumption" he said, that Henry ].
Kaiser, head of the motor COM
pany, and Cyrus Eaton, head OF
Otis & Co.. will be called.

ployment ceased, joseph YOUNG.
these employees asked to be placed
in the dee program. But the COM
mission refused, stubbornly insisting
that they had not complied with
the 90-day application deadline.
One of these employees took the
matter to Donald S. Dawson, the
very able administrative assistant to
President Truman on personnel af-
fairs. Mr.. Dawson then ordered the
commission to reverse its policy.
That was more than a week ago.
and the commission still hasn't
gotten around to publicly announc-
ing its change in policy, although
commission officials acknowledged
the new policy when we checked
with them on 1t. It seems that the
commission always has been reluc-
tant to admit 1t was wrong about
anything.
SMALL 'ER NUTHIN-It's be-
come increasingly apparent that
any pay raise Government en-
ployes will get from Congress this
year will be a very modest one in
deed.
We can disclose that not only
Senate Republican leaders but
House Republican leaders as well
have warned pay bill sponsors to
keep the pay raise costs as low as
possible.
In other words, the Republican
leadership in Congress wants the
pay raises scaled down. And the
sentiment among the leadership In
both the House and Senate seems
to be for temporary wage boosts,
rather than permanent ones.
The Senate Civil Service Commit
tee Is expected to revise Its bill to
average $500 annual pay boosts for
Federal employees, other than postal
workers, and $500 wage raises for
postal employees. Salary boosts for
top-flight Government officials will
be scaled down considerably.
And the House Civil Service Com
mittee is expected to approve the
$3.50 temporary pay bill sponsored
by Chairman Rees. Incidentally, the
Rees bill has the best chance of
passage of any pay raise bill now
before Congress.
