Unficotion of All Transport
Is Advocated by Col. Johnson

AS for the railroads, Col. John
son said:
Its going to be tough. If We
get into raising big armies again,
everybody is going to be in trou-
BILE. But We'll get by. So often We
have been able to do things, that,
on paper, were impossible to do
that I have confidence that We'll
find some way to do it,"
He pointed out that it takes 40
trains of 13 cars each to move an
infantry division, plus TOO freight
cars. For an armored division it
takes "a passenger trains and
1000 freight cars.
Worse OFF Than in 1910.
In comparison to 1910, the rail-
roads are not in as good shape to
do a war job, he said. He ex-
planned that now. as against 1910,
we have 20 million more people
and a production 8 to 4 times as
great for the roads to carry. Ac-
tually, therefore, while the roads
are in better shape than in 1910,
the job is bigger and war may put
a 25 per cent greater load on
them.
Today the f1ve-day week on
the railroads Is costing the
equivalent of 100000 freight cars.
and failure to load cars fully is
costing the equivalent of 100000
cars. The number of cars in dis
repair is $500, he said, adding
that he would like to see the
railroads have 250,000 more cars.
On the plus side he put diesel
locomotives. He said that dieseis
10 per cent of the total, are do
ing 20 per cent Of the work.
Manpower is another problem
that railroads will run into in a
full mobilization. One of the
answers will be the employment
of more women. In the last war
there were more than 10000
women emplOyed.

Labor Board Decides Boycott
Against Hoover Co. Is LeooI

certified by the NLRB on August
"a as the only bargaining agent
of the workers.
One argument of the company
was that the boycott was unjust
and disloyal. The board said this
well may be true" but it couldn't
measure the boycott in those
terms.
Ruled Protected Activity"
The boycott. said the board,
was protected activity unless 1t
was "other than peaceful" or un-
less it could be shown that the OBJ
jectives of the boycott were such
as have been held to be improper
for reasons Of clear public pol
ICY"
Another argument of the COM
pany was that the boycott was
improper because it's objective was
to compel the company to violate
the law by recognizing Local 7O9
after the other union had already
filed a petition for an election
The board ruled that such recog-
milton would not necessarily"
have been illegal.

tel penthouse apartment to a jail

"Get out of Chicago-you're not
wanted" O'Malley told the dapper
36-year-old Cohen. Get out be-
fore your scar tissue is found in
the streets. You're an undesir-
able"
Cohen later told reporters that
"Chief O'Malley did tell me to
get out of. town. He didn't want
any killings. I guess he meant
he didn't want me killed around
here. I guess I'll be leaving town
sooner than I thought"
Taken into custody with Cohen
was a man police identified as
John Stompanato, "a, a Los An
geles jeweler. They were taken

tographed and f1ngerprinted and
then returned to the Hudson ave-
nue. police station.
Held without Charge.
Chief O'Malley said both were
held without charge.
Chief O'Malley said there were

mer Heavyweight Champion Jack
Dempsey. The five were not taken

"As the jeep whizzed along,
bullets tipped around us. Medina

Drop in Meat Prices
This Fall Is Forecast
BY the Associated Press

The Agriculture Department ex-
poets prices of INDEPENDENTLY
pork and the better grades OF
beef-to decline in the fall.
In a report on the livestock
situation. the department said out
put Of meat Is now at the years
low level, but that it should in
crease considerably in the October
to-December quarter.
The prospective increase in
supplies, the agency said. should
pull prices down from current
peaks, but not as low as a year
ago.
Strengthening consumer de-
mand due to increased defense
programs may limit some of the
seasonal decline in prices asso-
ciated with increased fall market
ings Of meat animals" the report
said.
The department said consump-
ton of meat in the October
December quarter is expected to
be up a little from the 37.3 pounds
per person consumed on the aver
age in the like quarter last year.
But for 1850 as a whole. consump-
ton is expected to average no
more than last years LA pounds.
This average. nevertheless, is
about 18 pounds above the pre-
World War II level.
The department said prices of
meat animals and of meat have
generally advanced since mid
April, rejecting a strong consumer
demand.
The department said sheep and
lamb prices are expected to follow
about the usual seasonal pattern
of a small decline in early fall,
but continue high.

bore little resemblance. to the
plan as he originally offered it.
The first major change in the
administration program yesterday
was the approval by voice vote
of the mandatory control amend
ment offered by Representative
McKennon. Democrat, of Califor-
mia. a member of the Banking
Committee in charge of the sub
ject.
The McKinnon amendment would
have provided that whenever the
consumers price index Of the Bu-
reau of Labor Statistics goes 5 per
cent above the price level of June
Is the President shall" establish
price and wage ceilings.
While the House was acting on
the mandatory plan yesterday, Mr..
Truman was condemning it at a
White House press conference. He
argued it would invite a per cent
rise.
The Senate Banking Committee
also is in session today. exploring
the mandatory plan. which was
first suggested by Senator Full
bright, Democrat, of Arkansas.
Senators Maybank of South Caro-
lima and Sparkman Of Alabama,
both Democrats, joined today in
urging the Senate committee to
give the President the wide dis
cretion he asked for.
During the rapid-fire voting of
yesterday afternoon the House
turned down proposals to put
hoarders in prison, to order a SIM
pie wage-price freeze pending fur
ther study, to condition wage con-
trolls on business profits curbs, to
limit real estate credit controls to
new construction or new improve
ments and to let Congress decide
at a later date when the controls
should become effective.
The Presidents position has
been that, while he would not
object if Congress wants to give
him discretionary standby pow
er to invoke those controls, they
are not necessary at this time.

Bill to Abolish Death Penalty
in Israel Completes First
Reading in Parliament

JERUSALEM, (JTA) - The
first reading of a bill abolishing
the death penalty in Israel was
completed in the Israel parlia-
ment this week and was, by I'M
animous vote, turned over to a
committee for further study.
AS a result Of parliament's re-
cent adoption of the Law for the
Encouragement of Capital In
vestment, the Israel Government
is now receiving many inquiries
from abroad with regard to the
possibility of establishing new in
dustrial enterprises in the coun-

ted to the Investment Center
which the government set up to
coordinate the program of en-
couraging foreign investment.

A protest against Israel was
also lodged earlier by Lebanon in
connection with the incident when
an Israel fighter plane chased a
Lebanese airliner which appear
ed over Israel territory. Both
Egypt and Lebanon called for &C
ton by the Security Council
against Israel.
United Nations officials indi-
Gated that the protests may be
circulated among member states
of the U.N. AS to the request by
Lebanon to have its charge
against Israel played before the
Security Council, the same Off
cial said that it was up to a men,
Der of the Council to place it Of
ficially on the agenda.
The Egyptian complaint, which
came in the form of a letter to
the U.N. Secretary General from
the Egyptian Foreign Minister,
alleged that on June 80 an armed
Israel force "of a bout so men"
crossed the armistice line east of
Refah and entered Egyptian ter
ritory to a depth of 700 meters.
The Egyptian communication said
that the Israelis attacked the
local civilian population" and
burned their crops. "This act of
aggression was supported by
machinegun fire from at least one
Israel aircraft" the communica-
ton said.

Gals in Palestine had previously

ed that the facts be made known
before the members of the U.N.
Security Council. Similarly the
Lebanese Foreign Minister de-
manded in his cable that the Sc
curity Council undertake an in
vestigation of the airplane in
cident.
Both Egypt and Lebanon warn
ed the Security Council in their
communications that repeated

by Israel armed forces e
threatening peace in Palestine
and might have serious conse-
quences." The Lebanese protest
charged that Israel has repeat
