points respectively during the time
they We're in action. Dave Krupp

season, getting 20 points, mostly
on tip-in shots from under the

night, getting 26 points against
the weaks opponents.
Port Clinton led % to 6 at the

Their pay is high by any standard. Granting

the railroads would be paying out millions in

We'd Like To Spend This Money On You
You know how much the diesel has meant to
you in increased speed, comfort and conven-
ience The railroads have many more of them
on order for even greater improvement IN
service to you. But needless drains of money,
such as this present demand of the unions for
needless men on diesels, reduce the ability OF
the railroads to spend money on better serv-
ice for you.
Proud as the railroads are of the diesel, 1t IS
only small part of their improvement pro-
gram. Since the War, literally billions OF dol

Feather Bedding Means Less Service To You
But brazen feather-bedding schemes like the
one now proposed would, if successful divert
large sums of money from our present inn
provement programs. Even worse, they make
improvements like the diesel worthless, by
making the cost of their operation prohibitive.
These demands are against YOUR interests
as well as those of the railroads. They are
schemes to make work.. Neither you nor
the railroads should be forced to pay such
penalty for progress.
That's why the railroads are resisting these
make work" demands to the last ditch-and
why they are telling you about them.

Much Electrical Power Can Be Had For Seward Area

 WASHINGTON, (P) Harness ing the Little Susitna River and Cottonwood Creek in Al s k throughout l948 would have pro- duced more than 6,000,0O0 kilo- watt hours of electric energy, the geological survey estimated yes terday.
 The agency released study by engineer w. Lawrence of the Lit tie Susitna River east of the Sew ard meridian to a point a mile about Archangel Creek, and of the Cottonwood Creek basin.
 A diversion and conduit type of power developments Lawr n c e said, could have produced a power capacity in the 1947-48 water year of 636 horsepower 90 per cent of the time and 4,l00 horsepower 50 percent of the time.

 By doing so, Mills figured, prospective S3,OOO,O 100000 deficit in fiscal 1850 could be turned into $l, ,7O0,000,000 surplus, eliminat- ing any need for new tax bill. MT. Truman and his House lead CTS have picked ten major bills they want the House to get busy on as soon as possible.
 They are housing, labor, mini- mum wages, lobby investigation, crop insurance, federal buildings, Alaska statehood, rural telephone service extension, pay raises for government executives, and dis placed persons.
 This new lineup was decided on at White House conference Mon day.
 Chairman Sabath D.-IllJ of the rules committee which normally clears bills for House debate said he expects most of them to get the go-ahead within a week or so.
 Yesterday the House was sched- uled to debate welfare depart ment bill, but interest was cen tered more on an individual than on legislation. The House was set to receive general Lucius Clay, back from his duties as U. s. mil itary head in Berlin.
 The Senate was braced for fresh round of debate on President Truman's spending program, and economy advocates faced major test. Senator Green D.-R. I0 has asked the Senate to reconsider the April 23 action which sent the 2,4OO, 100000 labor-social security money bill back to the appropria- tions committee with instructions 10 trim it five per cent.
 Next in line for Senate action are probably the appropriation for the agriculture department, and , then the army departments civil functions money bill.

Move Begun TO Make
MussoIinii's Petacci
Another Pompadour

ROME, Jan. 7 (CDN.-Clara Pc
tacci, the big passion in Benito
Mussolini's life, was not in any way
to blame for steering Italy into the
war on Hitler's side, a series of
documents, just made public, dis
closes.
Clarita. as she was called, is
given a clean bill of health so far
as Nazi collaboration was con-
cerned.
The woman who chose to die with
II Duce is described as "a victim
of palace intrigue" She never
urged Mussolini to join with the
Germans On the sprospect of VIM
ming colonies and war booty, it
seems.
These new revelations are part Of
q current campaign to immortalize
Clara in Italian history and cata-
logue her as another Pompadour
or Du Barry. 1t Is a campaign that
has been started only in the last
few months during which many
Italians have commenced defend
Ing the Fascist regime.
Letters Reproduced.
Letters reproduced in Oggi. a
weekly news magazine, state that
Clara never played ball with the
Nazis and never guided II Duce
into his alliances with Hitler.
Public opinion wrongly believed
that the Germans protected Petacci
because it was in their interest,
the article states.
1t is claimed she was thrust into
such a position because of the
"Machiavellianism" of Buffarini
Guidi, an secretary in the
Mussolini government.
If Ciano was the Talleyrand OF
the regime" states the article
"Buffarini thought he was the
Fouche." M
Clara, 1t is disclosed, was aware
that II Duce had a number of lesser
bedroom passions in his life but
never showed any indication Of
jealousy.
Her character, it is said, was re-

Ivealed when she fed to the north
to remain with the dictator in his
last days.
She was looking after his inter-
ests, too, for she took along many
important documents that might
have proved discriminating. She is
described as one who did not gather
her jewels and furs and desert him
in his hours of need.
Several children whose mothers
were proud to recognize them as
sons" of the leader are named in
the article. Several other passions
besides Clarita are listed.
II Duce. it is stated, was very fond
OF the son of Clara's brother. He
spent many hours playing on the
floor with the child whose name
was Benvenuto. Clara was photo
graphed with the child on many
occasions.
The brother, DR.. M. Marcello, was
shot by partisans in the north dur
ing neo-Fascist days.
The latest stories of Clara build
her up as one of the heroines of
Italian history.
