DR.. HUI Shih, former Chinese Am

yesterday blamed the naive in

"Alger Hiss. Edward Stettinius

LAKE SUCCESS, Dec. 1.-Ap-

Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt when she

The demonstrators, led by Paul

said they intended to stay until
they saw Secretary General Tryg-
We Lie, Chief American Delegate
Warren r. Austin or some other

When Mrs. Roosevelt, member

Draft Rejection Rate
For October Drops 10
32.7%, Army Reports

The Army's rejection rate for
draftees continued to drop in Oc-
tober to 32.7 per cent of the 233,-
718 men examined that month,
officials said today.
This. officials said. is the break
down Of reasons for the 32.7 per
cent rejection rate in October:
Mental qualification tests, 14.7
per cent; physical, 11.4 per cent:
a combination of mental and ply
sical reasons, A per cent; neu-
ropsychiatric, IT per cent, and
administrative, 8 per cent.
The rejection of 76,479 men
represented a steady percentage
drop from the SO in July, 48 in
August and SO per cent in Sep
tember. The October rejection
ratio is slightly below the average
for World War II, officials said.
They credited the steady drop
to manpower taps on younger.
healthier draft registrants in the
81 and 22-year-old age groups.
For the most part, however, the
fewer reflections have been for
physical and neuropsychiatric
reasons. Reflections for funking
the mental tests have remained
at about Is per cent since the
partial mobilization began in July.

British Say A-Bomb
Would Kill 10000
BY the Associated Press

LONDON, Dec. British med
ical experts estimated today that
an atom bomb dropped over Lon
don would in its first binding
flash kill 10000 men. women and
children.
But with courage and the use
of proper preventive measures
casualties could be sliced in half
a distinguished panel of doctors
wrote in today's issue of the Prac-
titioner, a British medical publ
cation.
A low-level atom bomb, they
said. would kill another 1,100 per-
sons through delayed radiation
but the biggest toll would be from
it's direct effects.
The estimates-part of a % ,0O0-
word report on atom bomb effects
were made by E. Leader Viii
liams, scientific adviser for the
Home Office. and John Smith of
Scotland's Department of Health.
The articles. some of them writ
ten by medical experts at Brit
aims big atomic research station
at HarWell, agreed that the one
potent weapon Britons had in
fighting the bomb was courage.
The main thing, the doctors en-
phasized, was to keep cool and
obey the regulations.

Cattle Are Withheld
From Current Market
In Hieh-Price Gamble
BY the Associated Press

The Nations beef producers are
gambling that the consumer de-
mand for meat will remain good
for several years to come.
The cattlemen's confidence in
the future is being expressed by
wide withholding of cattle from
the current slaughter market with
its favorable prices. Some cattle
being kept on ranges and farms
will be used for breeding purposes
to increase beef cattle numbers
for slaughter two and three years
from now. Also some are being
held for further fattening.
Helping to give the cattlemen
confidence is the prospect of pro-
longed heavy Government buying
under the national defense pro-
gram.
The Agriculture Department
said today meat production for
the winter season may reach its
peak about the middle of this
month.
That would mean a reduction
In consumer supplies in the first
quarter of 1851. Compared with
the same quarter last year there
may be little more pork, about
the same quantity of beef, less
veal, lamb and mutton.
Farm prices as a whole have in
creased about IL per cent since
the war started in Korea. But
most commodities are still below
price control levels authorized by
law.
A department report yesterday
showed that farm products ad-
vanced 8 per cent between mid
October and November to put
them within about 10 per cent of
the record level set in January,
1948.
Grouped together, the prices
averaged S per cent above parity.
On November 15-As well as in
the pre-Korean war period-the
following producers were bring
ing less than parity: Wheat, corn.
peanuts, hogs. potatoes, butterfat,
milk. barley, dry beans, oats, rye,
grain sorghums. soybeans, sweet
potatoes, grapefruit, oranges.
lemons, apples, chickens, eggs and
turkeys.
The only commodities selling
for more than their respective
parity prices were f1ue cured
tobacco, cotton. wool, cottonseed,
beef cattle. lambs and veal calves.
Prices of cotton, cottonseed,
calves. sheep, lambs and wool
reached record levels in mid

Guide for Veterans
-By Maj. Thomas IA. Mol

The Supreme Court has handed
down a decision which means in
effect that q veterans right tc
his full seniority does not expire
at the end of his first year OF
unemployment.
This decision was particularly
important to Veteran John w
Oakley jr., and Veteran John S
Haynes, in whose favor the Su-
preme Court decided. The defend
ants, respectively, were the Louis
vile g. Nashville Railroad Co
and the Cincinnati, New Orleans
& Texas Railway.
Both veterans claimed they had
never received their full re-em-
ployment rights (although both
had been rehired by their prewar
employers.
Oakley, a locomotive machinist,
had left a job in the Loyal, KY,
shop of the L. & N. While he
was in service the railroad reduced
it's machinist force All the Loyal
shop employees were given the
right to transfer to another shop,
with seniority dating from the
date of transfer.
When Oakley was discharged,
he was given a job in the new
shop with his seniority starting
as of the date he went back to
work. He claimed that he should
have had seniority from the date
he would have gotten it had he
never gone into the service at all
in other words, from the date
his fellow r----'---5 got their
transfer.
Haynes claimed he should have
received a better job. with ap-
propriate seniority, than he ac-
tually got when re-employed. He
claimed a job which he said he
would have had if he had never
left to go into the service.
Both veterans went to court to
get what they thought they de-
served. The first court to hear
their cases said since the first year
of unemployment was already
over, neither veteran had any ba-
sis upon which to sue.
Why? Because the employ
ment law specifically says that
a veteran may return to his old
job without loss of any seniority
and may not be fired without
cause for zone year." It says moth
ing about the second or third year
Both Haynes and Oakley had
been re-employed for more than
one year. The court decided that
seniority. as we'll as the job itself
lost protection after that first
year. And, since neither veteran
was protected beyond the first
year, the court said, there was NO
sense in deciding what their rights

Both veterans appealed. The
appellate court agreed with the
first.
They appealed again, to the
Supreme Court.
The Supreme Court held that
the "one year" clause never was
intended to mean that all statutory
protection automatically ends after
the first year of unemployment
or at any other fixed time. 1t said
