By Nelson M. Shepard

A new historical guide to Ar
lington House-also called the Lee
Mansion-has been issued by the
National Park Service to place in
proper focus the Importance of
the Virginia estate in the life and
affections of the great Confederate
military leader.
Written by Murray H. Nelligan.
associate historian, the elaborate
ly-illustrated 48-page booklet is
the sixth in the historical series
being published by the National
Park Service. Mr.. Nelligan, a
northern scholar, writes sympa-
thetically and Understandings Of
Gen. Robert E. Lee and the early
years of Arlington-now restored
by the Federal Government to
something like its early associa-
tions.
The theme of Mr.. Nelligan's
book was taken from a letter writ
ten by Gen. Lee on March Is, 1854,
in which the then colonel on duty
in Texas wrote of his longing to
return to Arlington where
my affections g. attachments are
more strongly placed than at any
other place In the world"
Robert E. Lee acquired the es-
tate through his marriage to the
daughter of George Washington

windows in the Virginia mansion
and those of the old City Hall or
District Supreme Court Building
in Washington, also designed by
Hadfield. While there is every in
dication of Hadfield's influence in
the Arlington design, the original
plans were never found.
The booklet is as much a guide
to the rooms and grounds of the
Lee House as it is an historical
record of its times from 1902. It
was then that young Custis moved
to Mount Washington" as he
first called the estate-after the
death Of Martha Washington. his
mother.
A half dozen reproductions Of
the best known portraits Of Gen
Lee, the Custis and Lee families
and early scenes of Arlington. add
to the interest of the book. Photo
graphs of the various rooms of the
mansion are reproduced as they
now appear.
Mr.. Nelligan, a native Of Pitts
burgh and graduate of the Univer-
sity of Pittsburgh. finished the
guide as research toward a Ph.D.
degree from Columbia University.
Copies of the book are obtainable
from the Government Printing
Office. It replaces an old and
somewhat inadequate guide in use

intrepid Air Force pilot with a
Ipenchant for landing airplanes in

pended six-month Jail sentence
Unless he appeals, 1St 1t. John

Philadelphia Symphony
Subject 10 Taft Hartley Act

A trial examiner of the Ma.

ruled that the Philadelphia Or
chestra Association. which oper-
ates the Philadelphia Symphony
Orchestra. comes within the juris-
diction Of the Taft-Hartley Act
and the board.
William r. Ringer. the exam
iner. made the ruling in a case
in which he found that the Phila-
delphia local of the American
Federation of Musicians had vio-
lated the law in attempting to
cause discharge of a member
of the Chicago local of the AIM
who signed a contract to play
with the orchestra before obtain
ing transfer of membership to
Philadelphia.
The musician involved was
Clarence o. Karella, a tuba player.
Mr.. Ringer dismissed charges also
brought by Mr.. Karella against
both the orchestra association and
the Philadelphia local union be-
cause the tuba players contract
had not been renewed in view of
his union activities.
Mr.. Ringer found the contract
was not renewed because, in the
Judgment of Director Eugene
Ormandy, the musician had
failed to fit into the playing of
the whole orchestra"

Eric Johnston, urging immediate
approval of an 11-cent hourly
wage boost in the meat industry.
Rail Raise Approval Cited.
MIR. Johnston had refused to
pass on the wage agreement be-
tween two unions and three large
packing firms because the pay
raise would exceed that allowable
under the wage policy. That
limits wage boosts to 10 per cent
over January, 1850, levels.
Mr.. Jacobs said Mr.. Johnston
should approve the agreement to
be consistent with his approval
of a Scent hourly raise for non
operating rail workers.
A condition of the agreement
with the packers would void the
pact if governmental approval is
not obtained by May S. The 120,-
900 CIO workers affected have
threatened to strike if the con-
tract is not approved. The AFL
union, representing another 1885,
