 A draft agreement on an armis- tice between Israel and Trans Jordan has been approved at Rhodes by delegations of the two nations, and both parties prepared to submit the draft to their re- spective governments.
 Informants said the way was paved by a face-saving agreement for reduction of forces in the Aqaba area, southern borderland of the two nations near the Red Sea.
 In London foreign affairs un- dersecretary Christopher P. May hew said Britain will tell the United Nations the sending of Bri- tish troops to garrison the Trans Jordan port of Aqaba was purely defensive action, not in conflict with the truce. U.

DAMASCUS, Syria, (P) - Brig. Hosney Fl Zaim, commander of the Syrian army, took over the government of Syria today.
 "We have been compelled to un- dertake this change in the regime because of attacks against the army inside as well as outside the House of Representatives, which gave way to misrepresentation of the Syrian army and ill treatment of it's officers" Fl Zaim said.
 Another reason for it is the peoples discontent with the pres ent rule and the abuse from per sonalities handling it."
 The commander cabled the United Nations that the Syrian army took its action to put an end to internal anarchy. IL confirmed Syria's adherence to her former agreements and respect for de- mocracy.
 The United States legation al Damascus reported to Washington that the Syrian army has arrested President Quawatli and his entire cabinet and is in complete control of the city.
 The report from American min ister James Hugh Keeley, Jr., said the army accomplished an early morning coup d'etat. He said the army described it's assumption of power as temporary measure toward achieving a truly demo- cratic regime.
 Last December there was rioting in Syria. It expressed popular re- sentiment over the governments handling of the Palestine war with Israel.
 As result of the riots, Premier Jamil Mardam Bey and his cab inet resigned and Mardam Bey fled the country. A successor cab inet was formed under Premier Khaled Bey Azem.
 A Rhodes dispatch said yester- day two emmissaries of Dr. Ralph J. Bunche, acting United Nations mediator, were leaving for Damas- GUS to lay groundwork for armis- tice .egotiations between Syria

REMOVE POSTAL SERVICE FROM POLITICS

The commission on organization of the executive branch of the government headed by former President Herbert Hoover, recommends that the postoffce de- partment be removed from politics and put straight business basis This is sensible recommendation which should receive the support of the people of the United States and it will, in time receive the support of the necessary number of Congressmen put it into effect
 The commission points out that the department had deficit of 900 last year but points out that this had been created 'by circumstances beyond the control of officials in the postoffice department
 Acknowledging that certain postal rates fixed as element of public policy in the dissemination of n formation and in the provision of services not otherwise obainable by the people,, the commission recommend ed that rates for registered mail insured mail orders postal notes postal cards special delivery and collect-ondelivery mail should be increased to make these services self-supporting.
 An interesting recommendation of the Commission is that subsidies be paid by direct appropriation from Con- gress rather than by the postoffice department in hid den manner" It noted that payments to common carr- CTS for transporting the domestic and foreign air mail fixed by the civil aeronaucs board at level to pro- vide subsidy to aviation and that the postoffce must meet these charges.
 The magnitude of the business of the postal service is emphasized by the commission, which reports that it employs than 900 persons operates fleet of more than 0000 trucks and manages A 900 buildings pf which 3200 federallyowned In 1947 the postof
 flee handled 37 pieces of free mail and more than 100000 transactions in such special services money orders colect-ondelivery and postal savings
 The commission would de-centralize the postal ice into fifteen regions have the 900 postmasters and other top officials named by the president without firmaton by the Senate and have the selection and management of most of the personnel rest in the service with the Civil Service Commission setting and enforc ] ing standards.

sKYRIDER
SKYRIDER was a little trainer
plane. All day long he sailed ove
the airfield, helping young pilots
learn to fly. Around and around he
flew, never getting very far from
the field, and at last one day Sky
rider got tired of it.
"I wish something exciting would
happen for a change" he growled.
''This is no fun"
And then, quite by accident, Sky
rider learned he could fly by him
self. When a student pilot took him
up for the first time, he began to
experiment.
When the pilot wanted to go left,
Skyrider turned right. When the
pilot tried to go up, Skyrider pointed
his nose toward the ground; and
when the pilot tried to come down,
Skyrider zoomed toward the clouds.
The poor pilot was frightened half
out of his wits. "What do you mea
sending me up in a plane that flies
like this?" he shouted at the me-
chanic when he had landed. "The
controls are frozen!"
"Take it easy" soothed the me
chanic. "You made a perfect landing.
You couldn't do that with frozen
controls"
ST landed OK. But that's the only
thing I did right. Every time I tried
to bank left, we went right. When
I tried to go down, we went up. I
tell you, something is wrong!"
"Well, I'll check it over" said the
mechanic, still in doubt.
Skyrider laughed as he listened to
the argument. This was fun. And
when the mechanics could find moth
ing wrong with him, he was gleeful.
He could stump them all.
The next day he was allowed to
fly again-and again the same thing
happened. This went on for several
days, and each pilot who flew Sky
rider reported his strange actions.
Then, one day, a strange car ar
rived at the airport, and several men
get out. When they came over to
him, Skyrider became a little un-
easy. The men thumped his wings
and his body. They explored his
motor, inch by inch. Then they
worked the controls.
At last n of the men said: "Tn
satisfied that nothing is wrong with
this plane. I'll take it up on trial anc
see what happens"
"Ho, no." thought Skyrider. "Nov
I'll really have some fun"
Then Skyrider pointed his nose III
and began to climb. Up and up h
went, until his motor coughed
warning. At the same time he fel
the pilot relax at the controls an,
he was frightened. He had heard @
pilots "blacking out" Perhaps he ha
gone too far this time. He cam
down as fast as he dared an
breathed a sigh of relief when h
knew that the pilot was flying hir
again.

Furthermore, Lytell, like Ez-
card Charles, would not sell his
soul to the bunch of chiselers who
run boxing in NNew York state.
Consequently, he is unable to
even get a bout in the Madison

Concerning, Ezz, a Daily Ex-

him in New York during his fight

crowd a pretty rough with him.
They refused to blow the fight up
into its proper proportions. The
general reaction to his victory
was lackadisical. Every one was
agreed, at least in Harlem, that
if Lesnevich had beaten Ezz, he
would be a "great" champ, and
his victory would have been "sen-
sational." And New York state
would have recognized him as the
world champ.

shutting for Harold Johnson Of

Bert is a nominal middelweight,
while Amos is rated No 6 among

The case of Lytell is interesting,
more so because it parallels in
some respects the present case of
Ezzard Charles, world heavy
weight champ, despite the New

has for several years been recog-
nized as the uncrowned champ Of
the middleweights. Today he could
whip Jake LaMotta who is laugh
