 However the committee was not so complimentary in it's re- port on business establishments in Palmer. s'The garages, as a whole, are the worst places in town" " they report. However the area in the rear of businesses facing the main streets is not much bet ter. They need a lot of work done before they can be considered really cleaned up."

 It was further recommended that someone assume responsi- bility for cleaning up the burned over area on which the former hospital was located. Tt seems a shame" the spokesman com mented, that as long ago as that fire happened, still nothing has been done to clean up and beau tify the site"
 The committee felt that next years drive should extend over a two-week period, to be sched- uled just prior to Colony Day, in order to allow more outdoor work to be done.

Describing the reconstruction

sea had been drained and said
that "the use of every inch of

Armed Force Limits Hit

Legislation that would enable
the armed services to include a
greater number of women than is
possible now under present re-
strictions is asked in letter sent
this week to Secretary of Defense
Marshall by the Status of Women
Committee of the American Asso-
citation of University Women.
Specifically, the group urged re-
moval of the statutory limitation
which restricts to 2 per cent the
use of women in the regular armed
forces.
Legislation to that effect should
be initiated by the Department of
Defense, it was suggested.
At the same time the committee
advocated an intensified recruit
ment drive as follow-up on re-
moval Of the limitation.
'The committee feels that this
is no time for halfway measures"

Won'en's
Clubs
Genocide Treaty
Again Opposed
By Federation
By Ruth Deem

The District Federation OF
Women's Clubs stood by it's op-
position to the Genocide Conven-
tion yesterday at it's monthly
meeting at the Hamilton Hotel.
After two-hour debate, the
delegates voted 80 to to reaflrm
their stand against ratification of
the genocide treaty by the United
States Senate.
At a meeting in October, dele
gates voted to consider indorsing
the convention at their December
meeting after a thorough lnves-
tigation" by the legislative COM
mittee to see whether or not the
grounds for the groups objection
to the pact had been removed.
This would have reversed the
federation's action last April when
1t took issue with the General
Federation of Women's Clubs,
which supports ratification of the
treaty. The Genocide Convention
would outlaw mass murder of
whole peoples.
Mrs. Ernest w. Howard, legisla-
ton chairman of the District
Federation of Women's Clubs, ex-
pressed opposition to the treaty
yesterday. The issue, she said, was
whether to keep harmony in the
General Federation, or to uphold
the Constitution of the United
States"
The opposition was led by
Mrs. E. Morgan Pryse, who said
ratification of the convention
would be 'but a short cut to a
change in our Constitution.
Mrs. Pryse asserted that the
treaty, on ratification, could
either repeal" or suspend" that
portion of the Constitution which
safeguards persons charged with
crime, with trial by jury and trial
within the State where the crime
is committed. 'It is quite within
the realms of thought" she con-
tinued, that our Supreme Court
would rule that the pertinent
provisions of the Constitution had
been superseded"
Mrs. Harvey w. Wiley, the Gen
eral Federation's consultant on
legislation. stoutly defended rati-
fication Of the Genocide Conven-
tion. "The term mental harm
has been REDEEMED" she said.
There is no international court
before which our people could pos
sibly be taken; genocide cannot
occur In this country; it has and
does occur in other totalitarian
countries and should be termi-
mated in the name of justice; the
great mass of people believe in
the need for this treaty, and the
rest of the world looks to us to set
an example of mercy and pity to
mankind"
Mrs. Stuart Womeldorph, feder-
alton president, conducted the all
day meeting, which was opened
with special Christmas exercises
by Is boys and girls from the
Children's Emergency Home of the
Central Union Mission. The chill
dren led the salute to the flag
and the singing of the National
Anthem, and entertained with
Christmas carols.

to call upon the women for their
services. The committee also feels
that this is no time for outmoded
limitations and restrictions, but
that you should be free to plan
and make the best possible use

The letter was signed by Judge
Lucy Somerville Howorth, chair
man of the AAUW Status of Wom-
en- Committee. Mrs. Howorth is

Proceedings have started on
contempt Of court charges
against the United Mine Workers
Union. A trial has been ordered
to begin next Monday.
The arguments and the out
eome Of that trial viii prove sig

|of the American labor faove-
|ment. What's more, il involves
one Of our basic American free
donns-the freedom Of the indi-
vidual to work or not to work.
| just az he pleases.
The question IS this--who IS
responsible for a strike that has
not been ordered by officials of
a union?
Some SAY the responsibilifv in
this case lies with the Individual
miners. Their walkout has been a
protest against John Z. Lewis
institution Of the three-day week
as web as a strike for a new con-
trect with the soft coal operators.
Logically It could be argued
that Lewis should assume respon-
sibility for the strike because his
order for the three-day week
brought about increasing dis
gruntlenent among the miners
and consequently their ultimate
walkout from the fields.
But our legal procedure deals
in facts. And the union attorneys
are going 10 argue with facts to
try to prove their case. To state
things as briefly as possible, the
facts are these:
The walkout in the soft coal
mines had been off and on for
many weeks. But it started ia full
force on February 6, after mine
chief Lewis rejected seventy
day peace proposal from Presi-
dent Truman
Virtually all the coal diggers
stayed away from their jobs at
the beginning of the new work
week. But-and we must note
this fact-the walkout was not
officially ordered by John Z.
Lewis. Officials of the union calf

taneous resentment and an ex-
tension of the wildcat strikes.

fiations for one week to get ma
terial for a report to the l9resi-
dent. The fact finders made their
report on the following Saturday,
blaming both sides. And Presi-
dent Truman directed the federal
court to issue an injunction to
order the miners back to work.
One part of that injunction was
that Lewis was to ask his men to
return to the pits. He did so, APP
parently somewhat reluctantly.
And the men disobeyed. Lewis
issued another plea to the men
last week.-Mrs. time somewhat
more in earnest. But the men re-

away.

First Of oil, the attorneys de-
MED that the union had called a
walkout And secondly, they de-
MED that the Mine Workers
Union was responsible for con-
tinuing the idleness in the coal
mines.
They marshaled up their facts.
They told how Lewis had ordered
the men back to work in eompli-
ance with the court injunction
and how the men had not obeyed.
One of the attorneys put it this
way in velv legal Language. The
union, he said, has not done any
act to cause induce. engage ii.

strike or its alleged continuance.
