CHICAGO-The forces of the

time to time on various kinds of
gambling. The latest target Is
bingo. A tip came to the Shake
speare avenue police station that
sounded suspicious. A big bunch
of men had gathered in a hall.
There was a peephole in the door.
A guard would not admit any

Several squads drove to the

Prisoners in Russia,

German Yu|e Parcels
BY the Associated Press

| bf fne tStocIoIeQ FTeSS
HAMBURG, Germany. Dec. O.
This Christmas. for the first time
since the war, Germans ar send
ing Christmas parcels both East
and West.
German parcels to the East will
go almost exclusively to prisoners
of war still in Russia, Yugoslavia
and other Eastern countries. Par
GELS to the West will go to friends
and relatives in Western coun-
tries.
However, red tape does not
make it easy for those sending
parcels.
Packages sent eastward may
contain food and articles for daily
use, such as toilet articles. and
clothing. But any parcel contain
ing printed matter. messages.
books or newspapers used for
wrapping material is subject to
confiscation.
Antiques May Be Sent.
Parcels sent to the Western
countries contain mostly small
valueless items. Nothing having
trade value-cameras, for in
stance-is permitted. Anyway,
the receiver probably would have
to pay heavy duty on the item.
Antiques, souvenirs and needle
work are permitted. however, so
lit is a sure bet that thousands of
people will receive such items in
stead OF the beautiful Meissen
china sets their friends would like
to send them.
The German Red Cross and the
state radio sponsored drive to
provide Christmas parcels for
Germans spending their fifth
Christmas behind barbed wire. It
was a great success. Germans in
the three Western occupation
zones and Berlin gave about
1000 individually packed par
GELS. Almost a quarter million
marks ($10O.00O in cash was
donated. This is being used by
the Red Cross to buy additional
parcels.
PWs to Get $4,000 Parcels.
Germans apparently do not
trust Herr Wilhelm PECK. presi-
dent of the Eastern German gov
ernment. He promised recently
that all German prisoners still In
Russia would be back in Germany
before 1850.
The Red Cross particularly is
interested in sending packages to
prisoners of war who have lost
both homes and families. There
are about $4,000 such prisoners
in Russia alone, the Red Cross
estimates. Most Of these lived in
the Eastern German territories
now annexed by Poland and
Russia.
Many German families who
cannot afford to send their pris-
oner relatives parcels have asked
the Red Cross to send packages
for them and the Red Cross Is
doing that, Altogether. the Or
ganization hopes to send 10000
parcels to Germans still interned
in prisoner camps.
Most Of the westbound parcels
are destined for the United States.
Many Y 60 to Australia, South
America, South Africa. Britain
and other countries.
| Nazi Flags Barred.
Foodstufis are taboo in these
parcels. However. when a parcel
contains few Christmas cookies
the German customs officials seem
suddenly afflicted with poor eye
sight.
Nazi literature and cuckoo
clocks are "verboten." Many send
ers try to smuggle swastika flags.

blems into the parcels, customs

Hawaiian Court Order
Eases Strikes Effect
On Pineapple Industry
By the Associated Press

HONOLULU, July "a Federal
Court order today eased the
squeeze of the 69-day waterfront
strike on the vast pineapple IN
dustry of Hawaii.
Judge J. Frank Mclaughlin
ordered 2.700 tons of tinplate un-
loaded under the United States
marshals protection from the
freighter Hawaiian Citizen. That
is about one-tenth of the tin
needed to finish canning the pine
apple crop.
Both the union and employers
who are at grips in the water

of Federal intervention-a bill in
troduced in Washington by Sem
ator Knowland, Republican, OF
California.
Union First Backed Plan.
This measure would allow Pres
ident Truman to select a board OF
inquiry to make recommendations
for settling the strike. He could
ask both sides to accept the
boards findings as binding.
At first, leaders of the CIO In
ternational Longshoremen's and
Warehousemen' Union were en-
thusiastic. Then they found the
President could delegate his pow
ers to Gov. Ingram M. Stainback.
The ILWU considers Gov. Stain
back antiunion.
The employers were opposed
because the measure smacks OF
arbitration. Employers argue that
arbitration would allow a third
party, with no financial respon-
sibility, to set wages.
Senator Knowland declared in
the Senate that Hawaii was IAN
orphan out in the Pacific" He
thought it was time some one
took some action.
President Truman told his press
conference earlier that he didn't
know whether he wanted such
authority.

measure, said the time had come
