Stock Market Uneven
In Quiet Dealings
AT Week Close
By the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Mar. 27.-Post- -holi-
day indecision ruled in todays stock
market.
While assorted favorites man
aged to keep on the advancing side,
many leaders stumbled.
Dealings were relatively slow from
the start and trends uneven near
the close. Transfers for the two
hours ran to around 100000 shares
against last Saturdays nine-year
Saturday peak 'of 100000.
Boardrooms were more or less de-
serted by customers who elected to
extend the Good Friday recess over
the week end.
Traders Take Profits.
Professionals inclined to cash
profits here and there on the idea
the rise of the past two weeks had
been a bit too precipitate and called
for at least technical &C on.
Foreign situations and coal
labor dispute threatening nu--- 2rous
industries also we're viewed as
bearish.
A big batch OF pleasing earnings
and dividends provided a mild prop
for sentiment. Buying also still was
based on inf1ationary psychology
emanating from the big-scale re-
armament spending program. Hopes
that the tax cut bill will become
law provided bolstering influence
Railway stocks inclined to slip in
the wake of retroactive wage boost
granted engineers, firemen and
switchmen by presidential Emer-
gency Board.
Superior Oil Jumps.
Superior Oil was an isolated
jumper on restricted sales. It was
up about points at 1948 peak.
In the resistant area we're Good
rich, Woolworth, General Electric,
Allied Chemical, Illinois and
Pacific Western Oil. Steels, motors,
coppers and a number of other
groups held to narrow groove.
On the downside most of the time
were Gulf Oil, following a proposed
capital stock increase; Santa Fe,
New York Central, Southern Rail-
way, Chesapeake & Ohio, Northern
Pacific, United States Rubber, Texas
Co. and American Tobacco B."
Bonds remained listless.
Attracting support in the Curb
were Humble OIL Bunker Hill
Fansteel and Aluminium of America
Easier were Pantepec, Ratheon and
Cities Service.

Quill Quits as Head
OF Clio in New York;
Disunity Is Blamed
By the Associated Press .

NEW YORK, Mar. 27.-Michae1 j.
Quill, president of the CIO Trans
port Workers Union, has resigned
as head of the Greater New York
CIO Council.
Mr.. Quill, who last year succeeded
Joseph Curran, president of the Ma
tional Maritime Union, as leader of
the council, announced his resigna-
ton in telegram yesterday to Philip
Murray, president of the CIO.
In his telegram, Mr.. Quill said his
resignation was prompted by a
group of strange people within the
CIO Council who are "seizing on
disagreement between the council
and the national CIO" as a cheap
and underhand way of splitting the
unity of the CIO, here or else
where"
The national c1o hasrepudiated
the third party candidacy of Henry
A. Wallace. The Greater New York
Council has refused to go along
with the national body's stand al
though 1t has not indorsed Mr..
wallace Omclally.
Views on Cause Conflict.
There were conflicting views as to
the immediate cause of the union
leaders resignation.
The New York News said Mr.,
Quill "disapproved of the pro-Wal-
lace stand taken by his New York
council because it fouted CIO ma
tional policy and was therefore dis
ruptive."
However, the New York Times re-
ported that Mr.. Quilts position was
said to have been taken on a trade
union basis rather than as the re-
suit of political differences with the
local CIO officers inasmuch as he
is still regarded as supporter OF the
third party candidacy =" :.
Saul Mills, secretary-treasurer OF
the council, and other officials were
unavailable for immediate comment
on Mr.. Quilts resignation in his
telegram to Mr.. Murray, Mr.. Quill
recounted his role as one OF the
founders of the council and added
"You will recognize, of course. that
it is perfectly proper for me as
president of the Transport Workers
Union and a. member of the National
CIO Board to agree or disagree with
some parts of the national ClO|
policy which may effect the TWu.
Mills Not Spokesman.
But if thee disagreements Will
be seized upon by a group OF
strange people within the CIO
council as a cheap and underhand
way of splitting the unity OF the
CIO here or elsewhere, then In all
fairness to the membership OF the
TWU. the national CIO and to your
honest leadership, I must call a
halt as far as my participation Is
concerned"
Earlier, Pete Mosele, regional .CIO
director for the New York metro
politan area, said that Mr.. Mills is
not authorized to speak politically
for CIO in New York City,"
Mr.. Mosele added that the ma
tional CIO would recognize the
regional CIO Political Action Com
mittee recently organized here by
the State body as the sole political
spokesman for CIO in New York"
The new PAC was set up last
Tuesday to work in open opposition
to the Greater New York Councils S
PAC.
Mr.. Mosele contended that Mr.
Mills represented only a minority
of CIO members. To which Mr..
Mills replied
1.-THE question of who represents
a majority or minority of C1OI
members will be determined, as 1t
always has been in the past. by
the rank and file membership of
CIO."

Wallace Says Truman
Uses Intimidation
To Que|I Opposition
BY the Associoted Press

NEW YORK, Mar. 27.-President
Truman's administration was ac-
cused by Henry A. Wallace last
night OF resorting to intimidation
tactics to silence opposition to it's
program of RECOMMENDATION and
preparation for war"
The third party candidate, speak
ing over Nation wide radio hook
up, declared President Truman "set
the pattern" for the tactics in his
St. Patrick's Day speech in New
York.
In that speech, Mr.. Truman dis
avowed the support of Henry Wal
lace and his Communists.
The men who speak of reigns of
terror in Europe are fast introduc-
ing a reign of terror here at home"
Mr.. Wallace said, adding that "Pres-
ident Truman set the pattern when
he branded the millions who op-
pose his policies as Communists. "
Says Reason Is Blotted Out.
Such an appeal to prejudice blots
out reason, the former Vice Presi-
dent asserted, and unleashes dan
gerous forces of hate that threaten
the freedom and livelihood of all
Americans"
Mr.. Wallace declared that the po-
lice commissioner "of one of our
largest American cities writes let
ter in which he says that Henry
Wallace is un-American and that
un-Americans should be shot"
Mr.. Wallace mentioned no names
but in Detroit, Police Commissioner
Harry S. Toy said he had written
the letter to an official of the WAL
lace-for- President Committee. The
official, Commissioner Toy claimed,
had accused him of making anti
Semetic statements.
Letter Is Quoted.
In the letter, Commissioner Toy
declared, Theodore Roosevelt would
turn over in his grave were he to
know that such un-American activ-
tiles and such an un-American lead
er as Wallace are being supported
by the Progressive Party of Mich
igan.
"* I have no doubt that you
object to statements that were made
by me, especially when said that
l felt that all those engaged in un-
American activities ought to be
either shot, thrown out of the
country, or put in Jail" the letter
continued.
After Mr.. Wallace's broadcast last
night, Commissioner Toy said in
Detroit that IF the shoe fits Henry
Wallace, let him wear it,
Mr.. Wallace said that in another
instance a professor at small col
lege had been ordered Ito get out Of
politics or give up his job" after he
accepted a third party committee
Craftsmanship.
He cited other instances in which
he said a minister had lost his pull
pit because he sanctioned the pol
icies we advocate" and another pro-
fessor who was dismissed from his
post because he supported Wallace S
presidential candidacy.

National Gallery Concert Marks
18th Year of Composers League

the Phillips Gallery. His program
consisted Of the Bach "Fantasie
and Fugue in A Minor" Beethoven's
Sonata in F Sharp, Op. 78's;
Chopin's Sonata in B Minor, Op.
3d." seven Lyric Pieces" by Grieg,
Chabrier's "Impromptu," Debussy's
Homage a Rameau," Poulenc's lie
Commencement de sol" and Ravels
"Scarbo."
Mr.. Johannesen gave straight
toward reading to these works
which offered many opportunities
for the display OF his prodigious
technique and powerful tone. His
musical conscience Is one OF the
finest and he displayed 1t In his use
of dynanics and shading Of tone.
Yet with such i brilliant digital
facility which maintained clarity no
matter what the speed, Mr.. johann
nesen does not visualize the 1ndivid-
ual style of the composers presented.
There is a sameness in approach to
each, especially as regards the Bach,
Beethoven and Chopin, that In no
way selects the particular attributes
of style and sentiment as guiding
point.
He is inclined to abandon himself
to speed and to release the full
volume of his tone at the slightest
excuse. He showed little flexibility
in coIoration in the major works
but attained much finer results IN
this direction in the shorter numbers.
The basic solidity and brilliance OF
his mechanical equipment is at
present superior to his musical SEN
sitivtiy. Such fluent and, at times,
dazzling playing as be did yester-
day aroused an instantaneous re-
sponse from the friendly audience
in attendance.
