French Urged to Do Duty.
Alluding to this string of Com
munist declarations, French Pre-
mier Henri Queuille declared
"Frenchmen must do their duty
against all possible invasion"
He spoke in the National AS
sembly, which also voted early
today the sum of 59,966,477 .00C
francs ($193,221, 5000 for the army
navy and and air force in March
and April. The French Parlia-
ment has budgeted $50. .000, ,O00, ,000
francs ($1,160,000,000) for the
armed forces in 1949, but is
authorizing actual expenditures
in small amounts until the gov
ernment settles on a clear overall
defense policy.
The vote was 365 to 1854 after
Communists attacked the expendi-
ture on grounds that the govern
ment was preparing an aggressive
policy against Russia.

Committee Considers
DISPUTE After Truman
Sticks by WaI|gren
sy the Assoeiotsd Press

President Truman is sticking
frmly by Mon c. Wallgren in his
battle for the Craftsmanship Of
the National Security Resources
Board.
Mr.. Truman said yesterday that
he hasn't changed his mind one
bit about the appointment OF his
close friend to the S14,000-a-year
defense post.
Reporters at his news confer
ence asked if the President had
seen a letter written by Senator
Cain, Republican, of Washington,
Mr. Wallgren's chief Senate foe.
Senator Cain, who made the letter
public. said in it he doesn't think
Mr.. Wallgren is qualified" for
the job.
Mr.. Truman laughed and said
eenator Gains opposition was
purely a local political matter. He
said he hadn't seen the letter and
would have no comment on it
anyway.
Wallgren Charges Prejudice.
Earlier Mr.. Wallgren said in
statement to the Senate Armed
Services Committee that Senator
Gains objections to him ARE
based purely on personal preju-
dice"
Senator Cain has accused Mr..
wallgren of being soft" toward
Communists while Washington
State Governor. To this Mr.. Wall
gren replied:
"I am just as opposed to COM
munism and Communists as he or
any other man and I am equally
competent to deal with them"
The committee postponed until
Tuesday any further action on the
nomination. Chairman Tydings
told reporters that he will permit
members to read all of the evi-
dence and digest the pros and
cons of the controversy.
Predicts quite a Battle"
One Senator who asked not to
be identified predicted there will
be quite q battle" over the nom
ination but refused to elaborate.
Some Republican members are
known to feel that either the full
committee or subcommittee
should pursue the investigation
further.
In his statement Mr.. Wallgren
said that Senator Cain had tried
TO make it appear that he did not
have sufficient knowledge OF Com
munist policies.
"I am confident" Mr.. Wallgren
asserted, Il can recognize one
lust as quickly as Mr. CAIN AS
chairman of the NSRB I would
certainly require a full FB1 field
investigation of any one about
whom there was even the slightest
question of loyalty.
mo insecure person would ever
be permitted to enter NSRB as
long as I was chairman.
Mr.. Wallgren, himself former
Senator and Representative, en-
phasized at another point in his
statement that Il am bitterly op-
posed to Communism in any form
and would fight to a finish any
one who tried to impose that
philosophy Of government on any
people"
Fishing Operator Mentioned.
He observed that the name OF
Nick Bee, West Coast fishing op-
orator had been brought into the
controversy. :,
"Mr. Cain submits great deal
of material in an effort to place
the tinge of communism on NICK
Bee, a friend of mine OF long
standing" Mr.. Wallgren said.
"Mr. Bez is not Communist
and never has been one. He Is a
devout Catholic and has on nu-
merous occasions denounced COM
munism in conversations with me-"
He said that Mr.. Bee for many
years has tried to secure as much

ket and point to past markets
which have advanced from the
base of a large short interest.
For a while this week Wall Street
tasted the flavor Of the old days
when tips on the market circu-
lated with as much abandon as
inaccuracy.
In midweek a list Of 10 stocks
seeped into downtown Manhat-
tan from the Offices Of Life, a
weekly magazine. The list was
circulated with a wholly unfound-
ed rumor that Life, when 1t ap-
peared on the newsstands on Fri
day, would recommend the pur-
chase Of these stocks as bargains.
The magazine did not recon-
mend purchasing any Of those 10
stocks or of any others. The list
was chosen at random.
Risky Side Stressed.
To illustrate the theory that
many stocks are selling below the
value of their assets if the COM
pany were liquidated, William
Miller, author Of the article,
pointed out:
Stocks that sell at so big q
discount may well be risky; the
discount itself reflects a disbelief
that such profits can continue"
Il Apparently a tip is still tip in
Wall Street. though. Several
brokerage houses put the list of
stocks on their private wires. One
large firm reported inquiries for
the list from as far away as Miami
and Canada.
On Thursday the orders to buy
started to roll in. Each Of the 10
stocks advanced l to around 3
points while the rest Of the market
had a hard time moving up frac-
tions.
The rumor balloon was pune
tured before it gained much dis
tance. On Friday when the maga-
zine circulated publicly. every one
of the 10 Except one which did

less than the advances of the
preceding day. On Saturday

returned to normal. with some up

Air Coach Service
Extended 9 Months by
CAB With Restrictions
By the Associoted Press

The Civil Aeronautics Board
has announced the rules under
which it will permit scheduled air.
lines to continue low-cost "air
coach" services.
The board, noting that all cur
rent authorities for such service
will expire at the end of this
month, said it will authorize con-
tinuation for another nine months
It's studies to date. CAB said
however, have convinced it that
profitable air passenger service re-
quires the maintenance of stand
ard charges for the great bulk OF
plane travel. For that reason, it
will not allow any "indiscriminate
extension of coach fares" on the
scheduled carriers.
The coach-type service is
generally offered at about 4 cents
a mile, and involves omission of
numerous luxury items, such as
meals aloft and special attendants
for passenger needs. Most of the
coach services are offered at off,
hours, usually late at night.
Larger Planes Required.
The board asserted that it is
evident that the loW-cost fares
are practical only with high-vol-
ume business. and thus would
usually require equipment larger
than the conventional DC-3 type
plane having only 81 to "a seats.
In view of these conclusions,
the board said, it will authorize a
continuation of coach services,
including that by Capital Airlines
between Washington and New
York and between Chicago and
Minneapolis, when operated with
|DC-4 equipment having SO or
more seats.
The board announced that it will
also continue to authorize, for an
other nine months, the family
fare plan" under which some air
lines offer a SO per cent reduction
for members of one family travel
ing with a family member who
has paid full fare. This is usually
offered on the slow-business days
Of the week, Monday, Tuesday,
and Wednesday. The board as
serted it will not approve, as some
lines have proposed, an extension
of the bargain rate to all days Of
the week.

lated that lines which have exper-
imented in omitting meals in flight
with per cent discount on
the fare may continue this prac-
tice provided it is general on that
lines entire service and is not re-
stricted to certain routes. Western
and inland airlines have expert
mented with this type of discount
over the past year.
Further study will be given to
the off-season round-trip excur-
sion fares which Eastern, National
and Delta Airlines are Offering
this year between May l and Oc-
tober 81. The board said the re-
suits to date are inconcluSive.
