WHAT PRESIDENT WILL BE
CROWNED

Each president has a chance to be
crowned king in the Convention. Re-
gardless to what your quota is, you
can get as many members as you
can. The more members the better
chance you have. Regardless to what
your classification might be, if you
have the largest number Of members
in the Convention, you will be the
king. This is fair play.
It is much early for the office to
tell who might be our new king. how
ever, some of the presidents have
made a nice start. would like to
give out this little hint. Don't be-
come too satisfied over what you
have done because there are others
who have don nicely too" Nobody
knows what anybody has done be-
cause we are keeping that an off
cfal secret We have published ev-
erybody's quota, but we have not
published what anybody has added.
DO YOU NEED COPIES OF FORM

Senators Reject
Jensen Plan, ASK
so Payroll Cut
Reduction Would Be
Applied to All Fund
Bills Approved
By Joseph Young

The Senate Appropriations Com
Imittee today rejected the House
approved Jensen rider that would
limit Federal agencies to filling
only Is per cent of all vacancies.
The Senate group approved in
stead a provision cutting Federal
personnel funds by S per cent un-
der whatever amount Congress
appropriates in the various 1852
agency money bills.
Although the action came on
the Labor-Federal Security bill,
committee sources said the same
IS per cent cut would probably be
applied to the other Government
money bills this year.
The military agencies and other
key units might be exempted, how
ever, it was said.
In rejecting the rider, the COM
mittee said it felt the restrictions
imposed were too severe and would
cause administrative hardships.
Representative Jensen, Repub-
lican. of Iowa estimated that his
rider would eliminate about $780,
900 Government jobs.
The Senate committees action
means that the conflicting pro-
visions would have to be settled in

IN Vienna on May 4.
In a formal protest to Moscow
this Government demanded pun

The protest, delivered to the So

stances of the shooting:
Corpl. Gresens was one Of two

Iof Vienna on May 4. They tried
Ito establish the identity and
status of two armed Russian SOL

American authorities immedi-
lately sought cooperation of So

u. 5. Abandons Suit
Against Oil Industry
First Filed in 1910
Mother Hubbard Case
With 368 Defendants
Dropped us UnwieIdy
BY the Associated Press

The Government today dropped
its so-called Mother Hubbard
antitrust suit against the United
States petroleum industry in Dis
trict Court here.
Attorney General McGrath said
the litigation-originally filed in
September, 1940-was too un-
wieldy for prosecution as a single
case.
He said the Justice Department
will press separate suits against
various segments of the industry
in actions involving fewer de-
PENDANTS and more limited issues
The Mother Hubbard" case
was brought against the Ameri-
can Petroleum Institute and 367
corporations.
1t has been said facetiously that
the case was never tried because
the Government did not have a
courthouse big enough to hold all
of the defendants and their at
torneys.
Defendants Reduced.
During the years the case had
been pending, the list of defend
ants had been whitfield down to
225 as a result of companies being
dissolved or divorcing themselves
from major firms involved in the
original complaint.
The complaint charged the ex-
lstence of an overall conspiracy to
monopolize the entire petroleum
industry from the production and
sale of crude Oil to the retailing
Of finished products.
Mr.. McGrath said World War II
made it necessary to delay trial
so as not to interfere with the
induStry's war effort.
He added that it was recognized
some time ago that the case in
it's original form would have "re-
quired literally years" for final
disposal.
The Justice Department, he said,
already is we'll along on the sub
stitute suits against parts of the
industry.
Ruling in First Suit.
The first such suit, against
Standard Oil of California and it's
affiliated filling stations, resulted
in Supreme Court finding that
exclusive contracts between major
oil companies and the operators
of their service stations deprived
their competitors of access to
these retail outlets in violation of
the anti-trust laws.
Another similar case, against
Richf1eld Oil Corp, is now on trial
in the Southern District of Cali
fornia.
The department also has
brought suit in the Federal Court
at Los Angeles charging seven
large companies and their asso-
Citations with restraining and
monoplizing production, transpor-
tation, refining and marketing of
oil and oil products in the Pa
cific Coast area.

ST. LOUIS, June, 6.-Defense
Secretary Marshall lashed out to-

those who cried stalemate about

There were many criticisms
and dim views of the European
recovery program and there were
more regarding the courageous de-
cision of this Government regard
ing Greece.

'The latter was advertised as
a stalemate, as a costly and futile
enterprise. 1t proved to be a
significant success in saving Greece
from Communist domination.
He said there also were "those
who cried stalemate and the waste
Iof large sums" in connection with
the airlift to Berlin.
But it ended in success" the
general continued.
Turning to Korea, he declared: :
when you attempt to judge
what has happened and what is
happening there, you should first
have clearly in mind the position

tion with the creation of the Re-

struck a deadly blow to the Com
munists' prestige in Asia, he said,
adding:
I'VE have not seen the end in

actly what that will be. But it is
