DR.. Israel Goldstein, chairman
of the United Palestine Appeal,
asserted the "U. S. proposal, far
from solving the Palestine prob
lem, will only aggravate it. 1t will
require more force to enforce a

than it would have required to
implement partition"
Meantime in Jerusalem Ben
Gurion declared, ''It is we who
will decide the fate of Palestine
We cannot agree to any sort of
trusteeship, permanent or tempo
rary. The Jewish state exists be-
cause we defend it."
He insisted that the first prob
lem facing the Jews was security,
then establishment of state and,
finally, reaching of an accord
with the Arabs. The agency chair
man asserted that it is more harm
full to the U.N. and its prestige
than to the Jews. Ben Gurion also
warned the British that the Jews
would act quickly and vigorously
if the Mandatory showed signs of
failing to withdraw from PaleS-
tine as it had announced.

Truman Conferring
On Labor Policy and
Repeal Of Taft Act
BY the ksseeiofsd Press

President Truman and his labor
lieutenants begin this week to shape
the labor policy of his new admin
iStration.
Chief item, because of the Truman
campaign pledges, is repeal of the
Taft-Hartley Act and writing new
labor law
Setting the stage for that today
a team of Labor Department attor-
neys was ready with a report to
Mr.. Truman on what should 60 into
his State Of the Union message to
the new Congress in January.
The lawyers, skilled at industrial
relations and drafting of laws, were
selected by Secretary Of Labor To-
bin to draw up the recommended
tions.
They will propose that Mr.. Tru-
man appeal to the new Democratic
controlled House and Senate to junk
the Taft-Hartley Act-opposed by
labor leaders-and substitute COM
promise which would merge some
features of the 1947 law and the
Wagner Act of 1885.
Compromise Proposed.
The Labor Department advisers
also will suggest that the President
offer a specific compromise bill to
Congress to accompany the Taft
Hartley repeal measure.
This may not be popular with the
AFL and CIO, whose conventions
demanded outright repeal of the
Taft Hartley Act and restoration of
the Wagner Act Both big labor
groups showed they were willing to
proceed with reasonable" changes
after the Wagner Act is re-enacted
but they want that as the starting
point.
The lawyers plan in two or three
weeks to follow up today's general
outline with rough draft of the
proposed legislation.
/ The administration, meanwhile,
pushed the development of an over
all labor policy it would like to see
State governments and State legis-
latures follow.
Labor Conference Set.
The annual conference on State
labor legislation start three-day ses-
sions here tomorrow, with Secretary
Tobin opening the conference AS
sistant Secretaries John w. Gibson
and Ralph Wright then will take
over, along with William L. Connol-
ly, director of the Bureau of Labor
Standards.
Among the topics to be considered
are wage and hour regulations, child
labor, state labor statistics. safety
and health in factories, Workmens S
compensation, industrial relations
laws, and the relationship between
the States and the International
Labor Organization.
The Truman Administration has
laid great stress on boosting the
minimum wage of workers from the
present 40 cents an hour to IS cents
Several States have minimum wage
laws patterned after the 1888 Fed
eral Act, and if the Federal law is
changed, unions would be sure to
call for raising the wage floor with
in States.

On the question of granting more
funds for economic aid to Western

that Congress will have until April
to pass on that.
Discussing the benefits of the
European Recovery Program thus

a recent trip to Europe that Italy
is getting on sound foundation
more rapidly than France.

much better, their government is
coming back stronger. thing the
ERP had lot to do with winning
the lecection there"
In France, the Senator said the
picture was not as bright, and
added: France is an illustration
of the tragedy of having too many
parties. They can not have a gov
ernment without a coalition"
A repotred interrupted to ask If
that situation points any moral to
the United States, about the num-
ber of parties.

"It is a fact that approximately
3 1000 acres of land has been acquired
by the Federal government in this
District in the last four years. 1t
does not appear that the displace-
ment of persons on account OF slum
clearances has been considered.
I'VE are wondering if our long
range estimating should not wait
for the decennial census which will
, be taken in 1850 when we will have
an abundance of information on
which We make more accurate pre-
Gictions."
Further, Mr.. Fowler said: "The
survey recommends 80 pupils per
class nj elementary schools, IS per
cent of pupil stations in junior high
schools, rather than IS per cent
and IS per cent in senior high
schools, rather than IS per cent
1t is our understanding that the
present policy is supported by the
United States ONCE of Education.
These are calculations of capacity

added.
Enrolment IN the public schools
teachers colleges and other free
schools of the District was put at

to school board figures.
The survey estimates show that
in 1860 white pupils in elementary
schools will be 507 per cent whereas
at present only 49.9 per cent Of the
pupils are white and 81 per cent OF
the pupils in the first grade, at pres
ent, are colored," Mr. Fowler said.
Report Is Published.
The Strayer study published yes

Board of Education, school depart

men. At the same time its fiscal
features, particularly the recon-
mendation that the money be OBJ
tanned from the Federal Govern

repaid during the next few years,
were due for especially close study
in various quarters.

views are in line with those of the

"A very important thing to re-
member" MIR. Chatelain said, "is
that when we borrow money we
have to pay it back. That means
some form of additional taxes. A
sales tax might be one such move,

Almost any scene ever played by
the four, later three, Marx brothers
in their early cinema comedy days
should be a worthy entrant in what
ever sweepstakes Mr.. Blumenstock is
planning.
Garbo was the heroine of so many
brilliantly acted passages, that in
which she caressed the furniture in
farewell in Queen Christina" her
remuneration interlude in Camille
which not even Robert Taylor could
minimize with an inept gesture bor-
dering on the grotesque. and any
one of a dozen she played in Anna
Christie"
More recent screenplays, some of
them not otherwise praiseworthy,
have featured scenes that justify
inclusion in any great movie
scenes" symposium Mr. Blumenstock
may have in mind.
There we're two, which instantly
come to mind, in the generally pre-
tentious production, "The Razor's
Edge" One of these was dominated
by the acting of Elsa Manchester as
the slightly demented secretary. Its
duration of less than two minutes
was enough to make it one of the
pictures most memorable passages
and to establish Miss Manchester as
the cinema's most desirable charac-
ter girl in comedy.
The other superlative interlude in
the same picture was Fritz Kortner's
bitter representation of the exiled
Polish priest encountered in a
miners saloon by the plays wander
ing hero, Tyrone Power. Kortner's
morbid, Teutonic acting style found
its perfect expression in the passage,
the dramatic effect of which was to
turn Actor Power into minor &C
cessory, # not mere prop.
A brilliant scene that will always
be easy to remember among the
current film exhibits in Washington
is to be found in Escape" This is
the passage near the end of the
GalsWorthy film in which the mur-
derer and the priest of the Anglican
village church discuss the morality
of formers dramatic misdeed. The
Wry twist of comedy in this is per-
fectly handled in the pastors answer

question, namely: 1T would take at

self out of participation in what
should be an extremely dramatic
symposium.
At the same time, however, 1t
spares him from the mental grub
bing that would be required to select
one scene as the most memorable
ever encountered on the screen
There have been far too many of
these to permit quick answer to
the question. AS matter of fact,
the deeper one gets into it, the more
the whole thing becomes.
The easy way out. naturally, would
be to make a quick, blind jab and
