There were growing indications
that martial law, lifted only last
week, would be reimposed shortly.
Troops Called Out.
The government was forced to
call out troops last night to quell
Communist youths, welding
knives and rocks, who battledI
police and soldiers in the center
of the city. Two policemen and
one soldier were stabbed in the
before the rioters fed

U. 5. Reported Urging
Britain 10 Join in Aid
To Iran 10 Curb Reds
By John A. ScoIi
Associated Press Stuff Writer

The United States reportedly
has urged Britain to join in an
Anglo-American emergency aid
program for strategic Iran to
avert a possible Communist coup.
Secretary of State Acheson is
reported to have made this plea
in q memorandum to British For
eign Secretary Eden within the
past 10 days.
Mr.. AcheSon is said to have
stressed the need for quick joint
action to keep Trans vast oil re-
sources from falling by default
into Russian hands.
American diplomats who dis
closed this to a reporter today in
dicated the British are decidedly
cool to Mr.. Acheson's idea, but
apparently have not fatty re-
tected it.
$5 Million "Token" Cited.
Mr.. Acheson told Mr.. Eden, they
said, that the United States is
prepared to give an immediate
token" grant of around S. mil
lion to $40 million to Iran if
Britain simultaneously would.
l. Buy the 2 million tons of
refined oil and oil products now
stored in huge tanks along the
Persian Gulf. This would bring
the 1ranian government about
$35 million to $40 million at
present world market prices.
2. Declare Britain's willingness
to abide by international arbitra-
ton of its long-standing dispute
with Iran over naturalization of
the SIS billion Anglo-Iranian Oil
Co.
Under pressure from Washing
ton, American and British diplo-
mats are urgently exploring pos
sible solutions to the British
Iranian argument. The oil dis
pute has blocked the flow of
petroleum to the West for IA
months and has choked off the
Iranian governments main source
of revenue.
Harm to Legal Stand.
Britain's GOODNESS to the Ameri-
can idea. officials said. stems from
a belief that to buy any oil would
undercut Britain's legal argument
that the oil already belongs to the
British.
The British cabinet is scheduled
to meet in London today with
Prime Minister Churchill to con-
slider a reply to an invitation from
1ranian Prime Minister Mossa-
degh to resume oil negotiations.
Mr.. Acheson'S suggestion ap-
parently was intended to guide
the British in drawing up an an
swer. American officials believe
that Mr.. Mossadegh's move in ex-
tending the invitation is in it,
self a sign that he may be pre-
pared to compromise rather than
see his nation 60 bankrupt and
possibly Communist.
Seen as Only Hope.
Most American policymakers
now have decided the Mossadegh
regime, nationalist as it is, repre-
sents the Vests only hope OIL
averting chaos. Further, they be-
lieve an emergency aid program
is essential to stabilize conditions,
pay civil servants and lessen the
threat Of a Communicated up
heaval.
Such an aid program, they rea-
son, would also prove to Mr..
Mossadegh that Britain and the
United States intend to support
his government and may persuade
him to make concessions on his
side.
Behind the American attitude
Is a fear that Trans oil would re-
lieve a shortage now hampering
the buildup of the Soviet war
machine. Any Russian takeover
OF Iran also would put the Rus
slams astride the Mideastern cor
ridor with particular threat to
Turkey, Pakistan and India, and
would seriously jeopardize West
ern defense plans.

BABSON Discusses The Job Outlook

now and can, therefore, almost write his own con-
tract! recent survey of 125 companies reveals
they will offer beginning engineers salaries ranging
from 1925 to $500. Manufacturing companies expect
to hire more non-teChncal college graduates this
year than last with starting salaries ranging from
$500 per month upwards. Best bets for the nom
technical graduate will be in the accounting and
manufacturing fields Salaries for the college SEN
Tor in 1852 will be about 1919 higher than those Of
fered to the 1851 graduates
WHAT'S AHEAD!
What does this picture mean to the United
States? Actually. there is boom today in certain
jobs compared with the boom in stocks of 1929
Employment is high. Savings above normal
Wages may rise another SIS billion, from $l65 bill
lion this year to about $3.50 billion next After
increased taxes, this could about an So billion
increase in peoples earnings and should further
increase savings. The cost-Of-living, however has
reached present highs because most people are doing
little work possible for their current high
wages.
We are experiencing a "wageworkers prosper
iy;" but some day this wage bubble will burst as
have the stock market bubbles of the past Ameri-
cans should realize this and begin to save for the
rainy day. The wage Garner ought to plan to buy
a little life insurance, then purchase home, and
build up savings accounts. There never was bet
ter time for the graduate of any school or college
to get started on a job. Business and government
desperately need men who think, who have
learned how to get along with people, and who have
such character traits faith, integrity sef-reli-
ance, initiative, drive, and good health. But young
people must do much better work than they are
doing in order to hold their jobs when busi-
ness again declines. however, as I said above,
feeling optimistic now because there is
chance that the political pendulum may be swing
ing toward common sense away from nonsense!

Scout DenS Are
Active In Milford

The Milford Area Cub Scouting
Pack is now an actuality with sew
en- "dens" organized and function
ing. Application for charter has
been made and it is hoped that this
newest of Cub Scouts will have
been officially recognized by date
Of the first regular monthly pack
meeting, scheduled for late this
month; meanwhile, each of the
seven packs are meeting weekly
and carrying out interesting pro-
grams of activity.
At present, approximately fifty
boys between the ages of eight and
eleven years are participating in
Cub Scouting activities. While the
progress made to date is most en-
cOuraging, there is still an obvious
need for additional dens, particu-
larly in the north side of the city,
to take care of twenty-five or more
boys who have expressed an inter-
est in Cub Scouting but for whom
den placement is not Immediately
available. 1t is the hope of the
committee that the parents of
these prospective Cub Scouts will
be sufficiently interested to organ
ize these needed dens.
Dens and den mothers are as fol-
lows: Den No. /, Mrs. Nadine Ward,
den mother, and Mrs. Viola Wiley,
assistant den mother; Den No. 2,
Mrs. Virginia Thawley, den mo-
ther, and Mrs. Frances Fisher, as
sistant den mother; Den No. 8. Mrs
Mary L. Jackson, den mother, and

BABSON PARK, Mass, April IL 49, Headlines
about unemployment in certain sections such as
Detroit and New Bedford have made depressing
reading Events, however, are sometimes more i'm
portant than statistics. l. for One have been great
ly encouraged by the recent withdrawal of Pres-
dent Truman from the race. My more optimistic
feeling comes from the fact that a number of the
other contestants for the Presidency are more con-
servative than is Mr.. Truman. And a
servative outlook is what need to encourage
capital investment, which is the source of all jobs.
DECLINING EMPLOYMENT AREAS
According to the u S. Bureau of Labor Statis-
tics, there has been decline in employment in such
industries as clothing, food, lumber and textiles
In the clothing industry there about $4,000 fewer
jobs today than a year ago. Likewise. there are
about $4,000 fewer food jobs, 10000 fewer lumber,
and $4,000 fewer textile jobs.
The answer to the unemployed worker in a
consumer-gOOds industry is job in defense in
dustry. By late 1852, it may be difficult indeed for
the cOnsumer-goOds industry to find laid-off work.
They may have been snapped up by defense
industries and paid wages that consumer goods COM
panies will find difficult to meet
BEST JOB BETS
Best job bets for 1862 will be in the defense
industries, although in the long run, more secure
employment is to be found in consumer-goods in
dustries The production jobs today on the increase
are in such industries heavy machinery metals
chemicals, and paper,-tO mention few. For ex-
ample there are today 100000 more Jobs in ma
chinery plants than there were a year ago. about
100000 in metals. $4,000 in chemicals, and
$1,000 in paper. Transportation equipment and ma
terials handling manufacturers are employing about
100000 more people.

Icy, the scholarship will be a cash
award of as yet undetermined value.
The Association variety show,
1882 Varieties, which will be pre-
sented on April 18th in the High
School auditorium, will feature
talent from Milford and from towns
as far away as Salisbury. 1t. will
likewise feature the greatest pos
sible variety of entertainment, so
that there will be acts that will ap-
peal to every member of the audi
ence, no matter how diverse his
studies. Mr.. George G. Messick, di-
rector of music at the Milford High
School, who is the director of the
variety, is highly enthusiastic about
the show. And with good reason,
for there will be host of Outstand-
ing individuals and groups. From
the Milford area come such nOta-
bles as the following: Herbert
Nichols and Marie GiltenbOth, who
will sing a duet; Paul Lynch,
James Hazard, Skip Gillespie and
Sammy Johnson, each of whom will
render vocal solos; Lyman Fox
and William Davidson, tap dance;
Betty Deputy and Joan Ennis, a
dance routine. Merrill Davis and
Alvin Huey will do a black face
skit. Mr.. Messick will play a piano
solo and Mrs Bertha Carey will
give an original reading. Frank
Jackson will give a banjo solo
while Harold Hall will do one on
the Hawaiian guitar. Accordian
selections will be played by Irene
Houseman. Jay Black will astound
YOU with his black magic. In addi-
ton there will be an end man rou-
tine. a brass quartet and a male
octet and two very well known
choruses - the COngregatt tjnal
Church Choir of Dover. Delaware,
and the Milford High School
Girls Choir. Additional acts will
come from Salisbury, Seaford, and
Harrington. When all these are put
together it is difficult to see how
a better array of talent could have
been assembled, and it will be well
worth your while to see these 1852
Varieties.

THE GRAND BLESSINGS OF FAITI
TRIUMPHANT ON EASTER


The feast that we celebrate as Easter
comes in a season most appropriate to the
Day of Resurrection. On all sides natures
rebirth after the ordeal of winter is spread
before us in bountiful mural.
The Immortality of life is impressed
upon us in the very trees that are bursting
into bud, the grass that has suddenly become
green again, the crOcuses pushing their way
out of the warming earth, the shrubs and
bushes so soon to flame with springs first
offerings.
On Easter Day, spring spreads gay
welcome for the risen King whose triumph
over death gives reason for this feast The
theme the church bells chime is "He is risenw
There is another meaning there: "There is
no DEATH"
There are those who will not hear the
bellsy or the message of the Resurrection.
To one who had never borne witness to
spring, it would probably be beyond belief
that fields buried in winter could burgeon
with full life again.
There were men of little faith among
His closest followers, too, like the doubter,
Thomas, who must place his fingers in the
Wounds before he would believe.
But there were others. Like Mary of
Magdala, who was witness to His death, who
stood with the other Mary beneath the Cross
and who saw the burial place where they laid
Him. She was the first witness to His Resur-
rection.
They had come sOrrOwing on the dawn
ing Of the first day of the week and finding
the tomb emptied heard Voice greeting
her: MARY" She turned and said to Him
simply: Master"
There spake faith, and the blessings that
were Mary Magdelene's that first Easter
Day are shared today by those others, blest
with faith and hope, who joyfully hail the
risen Saviour, as she did: "Masterp'
