 Nations Fate At Stake
 In addition. he said, The Re- publican party's record shows that it is not free from forces of iso- lationism."

 Henry Wallace followed the Pres ldent into Harlem last night with the charge that MT. Truman was making shallow. hollow, worthless promises" on civil rights.
 The Progressive party's presiden- tial contender told rally in the Golden Gate ballroom that in stead of visiting Harlem, President 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 sign an order abolishing seg- regation in the Armed Forces
 But he gets the writers cramp whenever he thinks about it, Wal lace added.

GE Rejects Ability 10 Pay
As Yardstick for Pay Raise
By the Associoted Press

by the ASSociofed PreSS
NEW YORK, Mar. 9-The Gen.
eral Electric Co. has rejected "abil-
ity to pay" as yardstick for grant,
ing wage increases in its reply to a
CIO unions claim that wages can
be raised out OF profit, without
price increases.
The company and representatives
Of the union, the United Electrical
Radio and Machine Workers, were
to resume negotiations today under
a modification section Of the
existing contract.
Commenting on the unions wage
stand, L. r. Boulware, GE vice
president, said yesterday that "the
idea that wages in an individual
company can 60 up and down when
the profits of that company has
been tried many times In the past
it failed in 1946 and again in
1947."
Mr.. Boulware contended the
granting of new wage increases by
company with plants in many
different areas would set wage
increase pattern which other COM
panies in the same area would be
passed to meet, regardless of earn
ings and ability to pay.
These companies, the GE execu-
tive said, then would have to in
crease prices to cover the wage
raises.

Kaiser Charges Eaton
Tried 10 Coerce Him
To Cancel Contract
BY the As.oeiofsd Press

DETROIT, Mar. "a charge that
Cyrus S. Eaton of Otis g. Co., Cleve-
land, attemted to coerce Kaiser
Frazer Corp. into canceling a con-
tract for the sale of Kaiser-Fr
stock was contained in circular
letter distributed today to employees
Of the corporation.
The letter, signed by Henry j..
Kaiser, board chairman, outlined
plans for expanding Kaiser-Frazer
and explained the need OF additional
capital.
ITO obtain additional money" the
letter said, agreements were made
with the same three investment
houses that originally sold Kaiser
Frazer stock. We followed the rec
concentrations of the financler,
CYRUS S. Eaton, of Otis & Co. as to
how this additional capital should
be raised. The three investment
houses signed contracts obligating
themselves to supply the money.
Eaton Accused of Threats:
"On the day the new Kaiser
Frazer stock was offered, Cyrus
Eaton, about noon, informed me
large portion of the stock had been
sold and that the investment houses
would hold the rest for later
sale.
"Yet, at 6 o'clock the same day,
Mr.. Eaton came to my office and
bluntly stated he did not intend 10
carry out his contract. We told
him we could not legally let him
run out of his bargain. He declared
we were making a great mistake In
refusing to relieve him OF his ooll-
CATION. Mr.. Eaton then tried to
coerce us into canceling the con-
tract by making a number OF
threats against Kaiser-Frazer. We
refused to be intimidated. Since
then it appears that Mr.. Eaton has
been trying to carry out some OF
these threats.
Economy Drive" Under Way"
"A day or two later, a lawyer who
previously had represented Otis
Eaton interests, filed a stockholder'
suit, which was used by Otis & Co.
as an excuse for not going through
with the contract"
With additional capital, Kaiser
Frazer planned to step up car pro-
duction from 1000 a day to about
1900 a day. When the issue of
100000 additional shares OF COM
mon stock was withdrawn from sale
the company announced an econ
omy drive" cutting back production
and reducing operations to a one
shift basis at its Willow Run plant.
At about the same time 1t OBJ
tained a s10,oOO,0 900 loan from the
Bank of America Under the cut
back program, output is being re-
duced to about $50 cars a day and
approximately 5000 employees have

1946.
"The year is bound to be one Of
great anxiety" the paper said, but
we can help to make it the first
year of a great upward turn in the
European economy recovery.
This year will beyond doubt be
dominated by the decisions of the
United States Congress on the grant
of aid to Europe for reconstruction.
Without further substantial external
aid, we can have no hope of recover
ing equilibrium at a reasonable
standard of life within the next few
years"
In the 80, 900 word picture OF Brit
aims outlook for the year these
somber facts were dominant:
The government has been forced
to slash its vital 1948 export goal by
10 per cent because foreign markets
are becoming saturated
The number of unemployed will
rise from 100000 at the end OF 1947
to 45o,OoO this year.

June from Britain's 'last ditch
fund of $3.50 100000 s2,72o, 900, ,000)
in gold and dollar reserves with
which the nation began the year.
Food imports from the Western
Hemisphere will be reduced to the
barest minimum, forcing down the
average daily intake of calories to
1881 per person from the 1947 aver
age of 1880, and the prewar average
of 5000.
Further tightening Of already
stringent clothing rationing was
forecast unless there Is "a marked
increase" in production OF textile
goods.
Export production will be aimed
at the peak of Britain's manpoWel
and material resources. Imports will
be held to a strict minimum.
Even this austere program, the
paper said, will still leave the gov
ernment with a trade deficit OF
about 250,00oO00 pounds (sl,000,'
600, o,Oo0) for 1948 as compared with q
deficit of 675 ,000, 900 pounds $2,7o0,-

highest praise.
Of course, nearly all of the 900 or
more persons who heard the ninth

could come under that category. All
of them are ardent music lovers.
But the real experts were school
orchestra members from Armstrong,

They were scattered throughout the
audience, listening to each note and
watching every move OF Associate
Conductor Howard Mitchell's baton
The three schools were hosts for the
concert held in the Armstrong High
School auditorium.

In the front row sat James
Hughes, 10, of 4O42 Lee street NE.
who is a violinist, tronbonist, COM
poser and assistant conductor of the
Cardozo orchestra. He wanted to
be near enough to see the orchestra's
violin section. When the concert
was over, Mr.. Hughes didn't bother
to use technical terms. He just
summed it up by saying, "It was
wonderful"
ITO those of us who are studying
music" he added, "a concert such
as this is an inspiration. And il
certainly stimulates the appreciation
of students who are more casual
music lovers"
His opinion was echoed by group
of high school musicians from Dun
