had indicated the United States
would support the resolution.
The resolution authorizes sane
tons against either side if they
refuse to obey truce orders in the
Negeb. Since one of the mediator's
orders was withdrawal of troops to
positions held when the recent fight
ing began, the Jews feel this would
deprive them of their gains in that
sector.
Forceful Steps Weighed.
The subcommittee was instructed
to examine what forceful steps the
U. N. might take against truce vio-
lators.
At the subcommittee first meet
ing, Interim Mediator DR.. Ralph
Bunche proposed a possible solution
to the situation by creation of a
no mans land in the Negeb. This
would require the Israeli troops to
withdraw, but would leave the Egyp-
tians where they now are.
In the U. N. Social Committee
Britain and the United States pre-
sented a resolution calling for gov
ernmental contribution of $29, $780,
600 for the relief of Arab refugees.

and Frederick M. Bradley, an associ-
ate of more than 20 years.
The requests were made in a
codicil drawn last month, just two

trustees for properties for which
Mr.. Blair had served as trustee.

who had been named executors. Mr.
Blair was a bachelor. His closest

guardians of three treasures of
American inheritances: The spirit
OF giving, the spirit of community
and the spirit of freedom.
Dare Not Be Complacent.
1--WE Americans can say, with just
pride, there probably has never been
a nation and probably is no other
nation in the world where the spirit
of voluntary giving has been so
deeply rooted in our everyday life,'

Of this great treasure"
The Chest idea embodies the COM
munity spirit, he went on, embracing
as it does people OF varying religions,
races and walks of life, working
together for a common purpose
Turning to the spirit Of freedom,
Bishop Dun warned, 1T will be a
sad day for America and a sad day
for Washington when men and
women have to be drafted into the
meeting of the crying needs of our
neighbors.
These needs will cry, and they
will have to be met. If they are
not met by the free enterprise, the
generous giving and community
spirit of men and women, they will
be met by compulsion.'

Mrs. Goldsmith was recognized

Neither Major Party
Behind Civil Rights,
Wallace Declares

NEW YORK, Oct. 30.-Henry A
Wallace told Harlem crowd last
night that neither the Democrats
nor Republicans are behind a real
civil rights program.
About $500 people packed the
Golden Gate ballroom to hear the
Progressive Party candidate, who
carried his city stumping tour into
Harlem few hours after President
Truman spoke there.
Mr.. Wallace accused the Presi-
dent of making shallow, hollow,
worthless promises" on civil rights,
and said the Republicans were
every bit as untrustworthy."
Cites Scott Visit to Georgia.
1.-THE Republican chairman
Hugh Scott-went speaking down
in Georgia" Mr. Wallace said, ito
appeal for the support of the Dixie
Gratis.
The Republicans haven't done a
thing for the Negro people since the
bankers inherited the party after
Lincoln's time"
The candidate, referring to Mr..
Truman's address in Harlem during
which the President reaffirmed his
support of civil rights legislation,
said: -.., t,.a >.n.
Instead of visiting Harlem, Pres
ident Truman should take his pen
in hand and do the one simple thing
which would prove that he really
wants to help the Negro people and
deserves their support.
Urges End to Segregation.
HE should take pen in hand and
sign an order abolishing segregation
in the armed forces"
Mr.. Wallace, who goes to Phila-
delphia tonight for a major address
at 1890 pm, told the Harlem crowd
that the President during his South
ern tour had invited the Dixiecrats,
the race-haters, the lynch boys, the
poll-taxers" back into the Demo-
cratic camp.
In one OF a half dozen other
speeches here during the day, Mr..
Wallace told $500 persons at Co
lumbia University that he hoped
when the House Committee on I'm
American Activities investigates Co.
lumbia, that you will not be intimi-
dated and that the purity of re-
search will be continued, even if you
have some left-wing screWballs on
the faculty."

Heavy Fighting Flares
On North Palestine Front

TEL AVN, Israel. Oct. 80 RJ.-
Heavy fighting blazed on the North
ern Palestine front throughout the
night, an Israeli Army spokesman
announced today.
The spokesman said Jewish forces
attacked irregulars of Fawzi al
Kaukjis so-called Arab Army of
Liberation, in attempts to recapture
heights held for a week by Kaukjrs
forces.
United Nation spokesman in Haifa
said the Israeli attack was launched
at dawn yesterday, after aerial
preparation. The Jews struck at
Lebanese forces in the area between
Tarbikha and Hulen, the spokesman
said.
The attack apparently was
launched, U. N. observers said, in
retaliation against Arab seizure of
positions east of the truce line re-
Gently.
The Jewish assault against Kauk-
ji's forces was aimed at retaking
heights dominating supply lines to
Jewish settlements near the Leb-
anese frontier.

Of Jap Repatriation,
Macarthur Declares
BY the Associated Press

TOKYO, Oct. 80. Gen. MacAr-
thurs headquarters today accused
the Russians of quibbling over repa-
triation expenses, possibly to hold
thousands of Japanese prisoners of
war in servitude.
The acoustic was made in a
statement issued by a spokesman at
Gen. MacArthurs headquarters. The
statement was in reply to lass
News Agency dispatch blaming
Gen. Macarthur for failure to an
sWer a Russian inquiry into plans
for paying the Russians for Ship
ping the captured japanese home.
The Macarthur headquarters
statement said the Japanese gov
eminent had paid the Russians for
repatriation of about 856,124 re-
turned nationals in keeping with the
present agreement.
Charge Is Reiterated.
The Allied commanders head
quarters reiterated a charge that
the Russians have shorted repatri-
alton ships as much as 500 men for
Is months and have given all indi-
cations of again suspending repatri-
alton during the coming winter.
For the last Is days as many as
500 persons have been left off re-
Fpatrlation ships by the Russians, the
statement. said.
The headquarters statement point
ed out that under the existing
agreement Japan must pay the ex-
penses of repatriates from the time
they board ships in Soviet ports.
This has been DONE" the state
ment said.
1T is therefore possible" the
statement continued, that the ques-
ton OF so-called expenses is to be
used by the Soviet authorities as an
attempt at justification for a dis
continuance of the return of pris-
oners enabling their continued use
under conditions of forced servi-
tude."
Inquiry Sent Two Weeks Ago.
A Soviet news agency dispatch
originating in Tokyo and released
In Moscow said Russian Mai. Gen.
A. P. Kislenko, deputy member of
the Allied Council for Japan, had
sent the expense inquiry to Gen.
MacArthur's office two weeks ago.
The note was said to have asked
Gen. Macarthur and the japanese
government to name representatives
to discuss the repayment of re-
patrlatlon money to Russia.
Gen. Macarthur has said he
feared Russia would cease repatria-
ton again this year on grounds of
difficult ice conditions in Siberian
ports. He offered Gen. Kislenko
use OF ice breakers and such facili-
ties as winter clothing for the re-
patrlates but no reply has been re-
ceived.

day-at Providence and Westerly,

and Bridgeport, Conn.-the candi-
date wove thread of Old Appease-
ment through his talks with repeat
ed references to the need for a
President who knows how to CO.
operate with Congress.
He was greeted at Providence by
perhaps the biggest crowd that has
turned out to hear him in this
campaign. Police said there were
$4,000 persons massed around the
railroad station-about as many as
turned out Thursday to hear Presi-
dent Truman. Other estimates
ranged down to $4,000.
Rhode Island is the only New
England State in which the Repub-
licans are expected to lose next
Tuesday and some of Gov. Dewey's
Providence audience wore Truman
buttons and carried flags marking
them as members of the opposition
Nevertheless, the candidate was
cheered loudly as he spoke of the
need for American strength as an
aid of peace.
Speaks Briefly at Two Stops.
At Westerly and New London,
Dewey spoke briefly before audi
ences totaling about 5000. At New
Haven some 1000 were on hand to
greet him-a bigger crowd, police
said, than President Truman drew
Thursday.
There, Gov. Dewey criticised the
President indirectly for black
guarding" Congress. He also en-
phasized that the Federation of
Europe is, in his view, principal
aim of our Government" Fedora
ton, he said. would transform Eu-
rope into a bulwark far greater than
America-far greater than any ex-
isting force"
At the end of his New Haven talk,
Gov. Dewey was presented with two
footballs, bearing the names of the
Yale team. The presentation was
made by Richard Frame, president
of an organization known as Young
Republicans at Yale. Gov. Dewey
said he would give the balls, as an
election present" to his two sons,
Tom, jr, and John.
AS he marched back to his pri-
vate car, Yale students in the aud
fence gave out with a parody of one
of their football songs: "Truman's
team may fight to the end-but
Dewey will win"
Last Talk at Bridgeport.
Gov. Dewey made his last rear
platform address of the campaign
at Bridgeport, before an estimated
10000 persons, then, in a relaxed
frame of mind, he strolled back into
the correspondents lounge for a
drink and chat with reporters who
had been covering him. His train
arrived in New York on schedule at
5:35 pm. Rush-hour crowds in
Grand Central Station, held back by
ropes and cordons of police, gawked
and applauded from a respectful
distance.
Unlike, President Truman, who
made an extensive tour of the city
following his arrival here Thursday,
Gov. Dewey went directly from the
station to his suite at the adjacent
Roosevelt Hotel. He stayed there
until it was time to go to the recep-
tion at the Women'S National Re-
publican Club. his one engagement,
of the evening.
AS Gov Dewey passed through
the Grand Central tunnel under
the Biltmore Hotel, President Tru-
man was resting in a suite above,
preparatory to his speech last night
at the Brooklyn Academy of Music.

to their health.
In 1943 he was elected Presi-

Blame it on the Mayor of

dent of Congregation Anshei Is
rael when the reporter from the
Arizona Post quizzed him as to
what he attributed his leadership
qualities. And he pulled out an
official paper proving that his
great-great-great grandfather was
actually mayor of the Russian
city.
A former partner of James A.
Farley in a builders supply COM
pany in N. Y, Shift was leader
in Empire State politics of the
Democratic party for over 20
years. He was delegate to the
N. Y. state convention that nomi-

the proud possessor of glowing let

former master-mind of the Roose-

Mr.. Shift, born in 1895, emigrat-
ed from Russia with his father,
Abram, in 1903. His father set
up in the manufacture of burlap
sacks in New York, to provide
for his large family, consisting OF
three daughters and four sons.
Harry, the eldest, enrolled at
Public School III, but found it
necessary to quit school when he
was only II, to help fill the family
larder. His first job was as office
boy. In 1913 he went into his
fathers business and in 1916 mar,
ried Eva Steinberg, of N. Y.
Then he went into the burlar
bag business for himself, and ir
1924 branched out into the build
ing material line, together with
his brother, Sam. In 1926 they
joined up with Farley to founc
the James A. Farley Co., which

that didn't worry Shift and his
helpers. They eventually raised
about $65,O00 and the present
structure was soon being erected.
A $4,000 mortgage is all that re-
mains to clear the title.
The congregation evidently
knew a good thing when they had
it. They reelected Shift presi-
dent in 1945 and again for the
present term.
Likewise, Mrs. Shift has, been
recognized by the women. She
is the president of the SiSterhood,
