 Hawkins also had no comment to make on the Portland meetings and was still not optimistic over a possible immediate settlement.

 Strike Blow
 Al President
Barrilade Is need Against Confirmation
 of Appointments
By JACK BELL

WASHINGTON, May 29.-tRH- Republicans set up a barricade to- day against confirmation of any further major ap. fintments by President Truman.
 With their eyes on the Novem- Der election, COP leaders were re- ported determined to keep all possible jobs open to be filled by Republican President, if one is elected.
 The Republican Policy Committee was said to have passed the word quietly to Senate Committee Chair men to hold up action on several current appointees, including Frieda B. Hennock of New York, first woman to be nominated to the Federal Communications Commis- sicn.
 Republicans already have agreed to support bill extending the terms of David E Lilienthal and his associates on the Atomic Energy Commission only until 1850. Mir Truman asked a five-year ap- pointment for Chairman Lilienthal, with one to four year terms for the other four members.
 Reublican leaders also are ex- pected to hold up hundreds of postmaster appointments, although many involving war veterans ap- pear likely to go through.
 The no-action edict apparently does not apply generally to Judi cial or diplomatic appointments oi to other federal jobs where Demo crat could he replaced quickly b; Republican if that party's can didate won the residency

TWO STRIKES
 ARE ENDED;
 AGREEMENTS
ChrysIer Corp. WdIkoui Is Written 0ff-Meat Work
 CTS Settle Dispute
CBy The Associated Press,

Two strikes were written off the books today-the Chrysler Corp. walkout in the automobile indus try and the packinghouse workers dispute at Waterloo, Iowa,
 Chrysler's 75,000 CIO United Auto Workers settled their l7-day strike Friday for straight 13- cent an hour wage increase. This was two cents more than the raise given three days earlier to 225 900 General Motors employees who had threatened to walk out.
 The Chrysler settlement gave workers less than half of the 30 cents hourly they demanded when they left their jobs in l6 plants in Michigan, Indiana and Califor- mia May 12 However, the union later brought its demand down to IT cents hourly just before going on strike.
 The wage boost brings the Chry- sler hourly wage to $l.63. The rate at General Motors is $l.61, but this could go higher when GM makes its first quarterly cost of living adjustment in September.
 The settlement, which extended the company's scontract until Aug ust, 1850, left only the Ford Motor Co. of the industry's Big Three yet to settle with the JAW in the unions third postwar wage drive.
 The annual cost of the new Chrysler settlement was estimated by the union at s23, 100000 The company said 1t lost 5000 cars and trucks a day during the strike and that idle workers lost $900,000 daily.
 C1O' United Westinghouse Work CTS voted Friday night to return to their jobs at the Rath Packing Company in Waterloo, Ia.

EMERGENCY
 DECLARED IN
 MANY AREAS
Worst Flood Conditions in 54 Yedrs-New Sections
 Reported Hard Hit
tBy The Associated Press,

tBy The Associated PreSs)
 Thousands more residents in the Pacific Northwest are fleeing their homes today in the areas worst flood in 54 years.
 The death toll so far is Is.
 Main railroad and highway routes are disrupted in several sections, and parts of Washington state and Idaho are under official state of emergency. In British Columbia, the militia has been ordered out to aid the growing number of refu- gees
 Some 1400 people have moved out of the Fruit Valley housing project west of Vancouver, Wash. Several hundred families have left their homes at Yakima. Tn north central Washington the town of Twisp has been partially evacu- ated. At Kennewick, businesses and homes flooded along the city's main street are being evacuated.
 Army engineers removed pumps and transformers from flooded Me- Nary Dam, under construction on the Columbia River near Jmatilla, Oregon. The business district of Bonners Ferry. Idaho, is under two feet oi water. Navy vessels and flood-Iescue trains are pick ing up hundreds of stranded per- sons in Fraser Valley of British Columbia.
 Lowland residents in the flooded areas have been warned the wat CTS may stay above flood stage for more than one month. That would mean that at least a few thous- and people would be homeless for long period. The great flood of 1894 in the Northwest continued fer 57 days.
 The only bright spot in the pic- ture is a report that the Snake River is expected to crest this af- ternoon. It 1t does. it might mean the Columbia, into which the Snake flows, will crest at somewhat lower levels than anticipated.
 Traffic, both rail and highway, is disrupted at various places. The main Columbia River Highway east ou. of Portland has been closed.

PEACE MOVE BY RUSSIA PROPAGANDA.
Secretary of State Marshall Gives Report on U. 5.
 Foreign Policy
By JOHN M. HIGHTowER

WASHINGTON, May 29-IRl--The Western Powers are winning the cold war with Russia hut the end is not yet in sight.
 That appeared today as the main theme of Secretary of State Mar shalls newest report on American Foreign Policy.
 Marshalls views were expressed last night before the General Feeder ation of Women's Clubs at Portland Ore. It was his first full length add ress since the Russian peace off ensive' opener almost three weeks ago. M
 The Secretary dealt at length with that development. But he stressed that peace prospects depend mainly on a continued Western Policy of firmness with the Soviet Union A policy which he said may be threatened from two sides:
 1. The strong and impatient de- sire of people everywhere for re- turn to normal conditions" may lead the west into a Soviet false@ peace trap baited with propaganda.
 2. Americans may engage in some "thoughtless or spasmodic ac- tion' which could damage the con- fidence of other peoples-uneasy enough at hest--in the reliability of the United States as a world leader.
 Marshall bluntly called the Soviet peace moves "a cynical propaganda campaign to offset sincere effort on our part to establish basis for profitable negotiations and agree ments leading to stabilization of the world situation
 But he said he thought American progress toward that end since the first of the year has been excellent and history making" He called for continued support of this nations firm" policy toward Russia, saying that "only such firm and deter mined course can save the situation for the democracies.

ADMIRAL OF

Must Prepare, Nof Wait Until War Comes-His
 Personal Opinions

SEATTLE, May 29.--tR-The de- fense of Alaska must be given major consideration, and it will be much cheaper to build an adequate defense now than to wait until after war begins, Fleet Admiral Chester w Ninitz said here.
 He added, however. that he did not believe war inevitable. The world is just as likely to enjoy 100 years of peace as it is to have to fight another war, he said.
 The white-haired wartime Com mander-in- Chief of the Pacific said in a news conference that he voiced only his personal opinions.
 He said he knew, however, that the Joint Army and Navy Board had made an investigation of the Alaska defenses with subsequent recommendations.
 Alaska defenses are very lm- portant and must be given major consideration" he. said. Nimitz re- called the "anguishing' early days of the war when it was necessary to speed defence measures in AL aska.
 We had to spend time and considerable number of lives. We had to make strong effort-out of proportion to the number of Japa- ness there, to expel them"
 Asked whether Seattle and the Pacific Northwest might be the Pearl Harbor' of the future, Nimitz replied that T can't bring myself to believe that devastating attacks

The W ashington Merry Go Round
By DREW PEARSON
Copyright, ls4s. by The Bell Syndicate,
 Incl

WASHINGTON Two days ago this column contrasted the high pressure methods of the oleomar- garine lobby with the unorganized plaintive hopes Of several million people for home through passage of the housing act.
 Here is another chapter ill the story. It illustrates how the pres ent Republican Congress eats out of the hand of the big Hobbies.
 What the public doesn't know is that their money has gone to pay a group of high-powered New York press agents to sit right inside the joint Congressional Committee on Housing and propagandige on be- half of the real-estate lobby.
 The press agents are Bell, Jones and Taylor of $50 Fifth Ave, New York, and two members Of the firm were each paid $10.000 year to spread real-estate lobby pro- paganda from their carefully placed spots inside the Committee. An- other member of the firm was paid $25 day.
 During the Hoover Administra- tion when Senator Hiram Bingham of Connecticut allowed a lobby ist from the Connecticut Manufact- urers Association to sit in on a secret tariff hearing, Bingham was reprimanded by his Republican Sem ate colleagues and later defeated for reelection. The temper of some Republican Senators has now changed.
