DlSABLED VESSEL x UNDER ESCORT FOR kETCHIKAN

SEATTLE, June IS - tR - The fishing vessel Sea Lark, which called for help in the North Pacific yes- terday, was proceeding slowly to- ward the British Columbia coast to- day under it's own power Twenty six men were reported aboard.
 The S.S. Sailors Splice of the Alaska Steamship Company reach ed it's side at am. PSF today and was escorting the crippled 165-foot vessel.
 The Sailors Splice reported it reached the Sea Lark about l60 miles off the coast. The Coast Guard said the Sea Lark is heading for Queen Charlotte Sound, plan ming to proceed to Ketehikan, Alas ka. in the sheltered inland pas- sage.
 The co cutter Winona expects to reach the Sea Lark in late after- noon.
 The Sea Lark was disabled while proceeding to Kodiak with smaller fishing boats lashed to it's deck. Most of the 26 aboard were fisher- men. The vessel is owned by the Global Packing Go. of Seattle.

BRIGHTER PROSPECTS

Young men who presently are winding up thei1 college courses even they face the threat of having to serve a hitch with Uncle Sam, may find comfort in the fact that prospects for jobs look brighter than usual this year. says the Cincinnati Enquirer. This word comes from placement director at one of the big Eastern colleges He finds that business and industrial concerns have been doing more interview ing of seniors on his campus than they have done previously.
 Engineers seem to be greatest in demand, then accountants and students of management and bank ing Apparently being hired regardless of their status with the draft being put on pre- ferred" lists pending their return from service.
 All this possibly sounds rosier than it should. It may still prove too easy for nonspecaliss to find openings We recently heard about a person somewhat beynd the college age, to be sure-who on applying for a job at 32 told he was too old. Three years ago, in discussing the same type of job he was told that he too young. This suggests that the labor market in it's whitecoar brackets has retained its only stable feature = the run-around.

Screaming Luncheon-U. s.

But Prime Minister Mossadegh and the British Ambas- sador ate the fine lunch and wound up creaming at each other.
 Franco in Trouble The Amer ican Embassy in Spain has cabled the State Department that Gener- alissimo Franco's foes are planning spectacular sitdown strike ln Madrid The Embassy reports Spain is due for serious trouble, and for the first time opposition parties are secretly forming united front in an effort to oust Franco from power.

MacArthur or an Eisenhower boom:
 What if Macarthur should sud- denly step off the boat at San Francisco?" warned Martin in l941. Next he would be riding down Fifth Avenue. What then? Can't you visualize it? The idea Of Mac Arthur for President could take the country by storm.
 Let me tell you," continued the little man from Massachusetts, If things get worse in Europe, the people may turn to military man like Eisenhower or Macarthur. If chaos should develop, the people will look for an iron hand, explained the speaker, then they may turn to Macarthur" But what about the bonus march?" asked one friend. "The public has short memory, shrugged Martin. That was + years ago."

The White House has received a report from Maury Maverick, ex- mayor of San Antonio, on the diff ficulty San Antonio's present may or, Jack White, had in getting a reception committee to welcome General Macarthur. Gen. Walter Krueger, the top general ser- wing under Macarthur in the Pacific, was too busy to serve. Macarthur went to high school and military academy in San Antonio, and the mayor wanted big send off. ... The time to watch for John l.. Lewis's rumored coal strike is after the miners go off on she midsummer vacation. Big Johns lieutenants have been dropping the word that the vacation might be extended. Senator Bennett, newly elected Republican from Utah, whose motor company in Salt Lake City was raided by the OPS for violating price controls, is on the Senate Committee which votes on extending the price contro. act =. The U. s. Attorneys office in Los Angeles has deteriorated in prestige as a result of publicity craving. Walter Winchell gave out as if he were the first newsman to interview Macarthur, but most people don't know that tl.e first was Robert Gros, the California lecturer, who scored the first pub licist talk with the General short ly after his arrival in New York Gros, one of the champion inter- viewers of the U.S.A., also chalkec up Secretary Marshall, Herbert Hoover, President Truman, John L Lewis and Shirley Temple on tht same quick trip.

Senatorial Neckties

Secretary of State Acheson's jaw dropped slightly while testifying before the Senate Armed Services and Foreign Affairs Committees last week. It wasn't what was asked him that made him look surprised, It was what he saw.
 Across the table, Sen. Wayne Morse of Oregon started to unite his necktie. Near him Senator ke- fauver of Tennessee also started to unite his. But the two men didn't look as if they were going to square off and hit each other. They look ed quite pleasant.
 In fact, what they did was to ex' change neckties.
 This is a hobby of the Oregon Senator's. He has swapped necktie with two Senators in the last wee Russell of Georgia and McCarth of Wisconsin-each time getting five-dollar tie in return for one buck product.
