sociation of Reform Rabbis. The
conference, which brought rabbis
from nine states in the Rocky
Mountain and Pacific Coast region,
ended Tuesday night.
In an interview with The Phoenix
Jewish News, Eisendrath said that
reform Judaism has approximate
ly doubled it's membership during
the past decade. The Union of
American Hebrew Congregations,
which is the parent body of reform
Judaism in the U. S. and Canada,
has helped establish nearly 100 new
congregations in the past five
years, he reported.
Eisendrath attributed the growth
of the movement to several factors:
4 During World War II, a large
proportion of Jewish chap
lains were reform rabbis and
many servicemen thus had their
first religious contact with reform
leadership.
q Because of the confusion" of
our times and the ever-present
threat of atomic disaster,
there is a trend toward religion.
O Nazism reminded American
d Jews of "the fallacy of es-
capism."
q An intensive" campaign to
recruit new followers to the
reform movement.
Hosts of the Western rabbinical
conference here were Rabbi A. L.
Krohn and the congregation of
Temple Beth Israel. Delegates
came from New Mexico, California,
Oregon, Colorado, Utah, Idaho,
Washington, Ell Paso, Texas, and
Tucson.
Rabbi Eisendrath spoke at a
meeting at the home of Albert
Spector, vice president of the
temple. He was also principal
speaker at a Monday luncheon at
the Arizona Manor.
Dinner Is Given
Other events Sunday included a
dinner for the executive board at
the Arizona Manor and reception
at the temple. Among the speak
ers at the Monday sessions were
Rabbi Phineas Smoller, executive
director of the Union of American
Hebrew Congregations for the
Western states, and Rabbi Morris
Galpert. Wives of the rabbis were
entertained at luncheon by the
temple sisterhood and the days
activities were climaxed with a
banquet at the temple. The main
address was delivered by Rabbi
Eisendrath.
Speakers at Tuesdays sessions
included Rabbi Albert M. Lewis,
Rabbi Morris Goldstein and Edwin
Soref of the Bureau of Jewish Ed
ucation in Los Angeles.

CHA Clobemaster
With 81 Men Lost
Over Alaska Gulf

ANCHORAGE, (P) - A faint
radio signal was the only ten
uous clue today to the fate of
So men aboard giant c. 124
Globemaster which vanished Sat-
urday night over the Gulf of
Alaska.
Twenty-four search planes
were poised here, ready to fan
out when weather permits over
the $50 miles to tiny Middleton
Island which monitored the four
engined transports last message.
The Al Army and Air Force
passengers and II crewmen were
listed officially yesterday as miss
ing in the continuing plague of
us. military air disasters thru
out the world.
The weak radio signal, which
could have come from emergency
equipment carried by the Globe
master, was picked up Sunday
by the CAA station at Yakataga,
on the Alaska coastline about $50
miles east Of Middleton Island.
The SOS was so dim no bear
ing could be taken. But author
tiles at Elmendorf Air Force Base
here said the signal on the Inter
national distress frequency of 500
kilocycles might have come from
''Gibson Girl'' radio transmitters
attached to- the c. 124's rubber
liferafts.
They cautioned, however, ag-
ainst undue optimism, pointing
out that the signal was not picked
up again and past experience in

Engineers Predict Volume
Of Air Cargo Traffic
Will Be Double By 1854

BURBANK, Calf, (P) - Air
planes will be carrying more
cargo than passengers by 1859,
two cargo engineers for Lockheed
Aircraft Corp, said Monday.
The engineers, L. r.. Hackney
and Charles L. Rausch, have COM
pleted an exhaustive Is : month
study of air cargo trends made
for LGckheed.
They predicted that the volume
of air cargo would be doubled by
1854, and that by 1860 it would
total 112 billion ton-miles an
nually, five times the 1852 total.
The 1860 figure would be the
equivalent Of the movement of
four loaded freight trains of At
cars each, from New York to Los
Angeles, each work day for a
year, they said.

Suit Demands Neil
Moore be Removed
As Alaska Auditor

ANCHORAGE, up - Suit has
been filed in Third District Fed
eral Court demanding that Neil
Moore be removed as Alaska
Auditor on grounds there is no
such elective position.
The action apparently was
brought to test the legality Of the
Territory's Reorganization Act,
which was passed in the waning
hours of the 1851 Legislature.
The Act took the posts Of Alas
ka Auditor, Treasurer and Attor-
ney General out of the category
and provided that they be filled
by the Legislature. But in the
final rush of business, the legis-
lators failed to make the neces-
sary appointments.
Shortly after the 1851 Legisla-
lature adjourned, Atty. Gen. Ger
aid Williams ruled that the act
was illegal.
The suit against Moore was
brought this week by Horace
Pugh, Anchorage laborer, through
his attorney, Roger Cremo.
Moore, who was elected auditor
at the recent territorial election,
commented afterward that This
is going to be fun"
apparently $4,000 people who
voted either for me or for my
opponent at the last election
thought the auditor was an cleo
tive office" he added.

respected businessman into a
bandit, guard who killed him
before being overcome by gas
in an attempted armored money
truck robbery, died Monday.

an opening into the trucks locked
money compartment where Doer-
finger was on duty alone.

drew his pistol and fired five
shots back through the aperture
in the rear Of the truck cab,
killing Katz.

three children, owned a spacious
home in suburban University City.

Joint Committee Credits
Price Controls With
Stopping Initiation

WASHINGTON, (P)-A Senate
House committee said Monday
price controls had been major
factor in stopping ''hectic price
rises" after the outbreak of war
in Korea.
The joint congressional COM
mittee on defense production, in
a report surveying price trends of
the past two and one-half years,
credited governmental action with
a major role in hating rampant"
initiation.
1t cited evidence, however, to
show initiation still was a serious
problem to the nations consum-
ers.
Price curbs are among the con-
trolls expiring next April 80. One
Of the first tasks Of the incoming
Republican administration will be
to decide whether to keep or
junk these controls.

us. and Britain Split
Over Compromise Plan
To End POW Deadlock

UNITED NATIONS, NY, (P-
The most serious diplomatic rift
between Britain and the us. in
years continued unabated today
despite efforts by India and other
countries to close the breach.
The two great allies split far
apart when the US. notified Brit
ish Foreign Secretary Anthony
Eden it could not accept a Brit
ish backed Indian compromise
plan for ending the Korean pri-
soner of war deadlock unless the
proposal w a S substantially
amended.
Britain feels the proposals
should be given chance as they
stand, but the us. wants all de-
tails spelled out.
India came up quickly with
notifications but these apparent
ly did not satisfy the us.
O. The 81 powers which backed an
original American resolution held
an urgent closed meeting last
night at which US. Secretary Of
State Dean Acheson detailed the
American objections to the Indian
proposals. The 81 apparently fail
ed to find a position which would
please both Britain and the us.

Union Dispute At
Seattle Threatens
Complete Tie-Up

SEATTLE, (P)-A Jurisdiction
al dispute over hiring of dock
foremen, which has crippled the
Seattle waterfront since Nov. Is.
threatened today to bring a COM
plete shipping tie-up at this stra-
tegic port. There was hope for
some special arrangement for
emergency shipping to Alaska.
Make Weisbarth, spokesman
: for the AFL Maritime Trades De-
partfnent Committee, said plans
were being drawn to turn away
all commercial ships from Seattle
He limited the tie up might
spread later to military piers.
Weisbarth said complete par
alysis of the waterfront would
have a terrible" effect on Alas
ka's waterborne lifeline, but a
formula might be worked out
which would permit some ship
ping to the northern territory.
The union leader described the
dispute as an call out fight to
whip Communism on the Seattle
waterfront"
The remark brought an immed-
late denial from Charles Peabody,
president of the newly-formed
Independent Ship and Dock Fore
mems Union, that any subversive
influences were behind his
groups decision to break away
from the AFL.
Creation Of the independent
union here by SO dock foremen
is the crux of the trouble. The
AFL has insisted that waterfront
employers hire foremen through
the AFL Longshore Union, and
has described the withdrawal of
the foremen as move inspired
by Harry Bridges International
Longeshoremen's and Warehouse
mems Union.
Two ships are scheduled to sail
for Alaska tomorrow with emer-
gency supplies. The union agreed
last week to release them.

State Fair at
TimOnium to Be
Held August u

From August 27 through Sept
ember 6, the Maryland State Fair
will be the important event in the

partment are the painting of the
grandstand, paddock and Jockeys
quarters.

presented in the grandstand. A
Firemen's Parade, U. S. Military
Drill Teams and Horse Pulling
Contests will also be part of the
evening entertainment. The public
is also invited to attend a barn
dance in the pavilion on opening
night.
although the nightly features
in the grandstand do not produce
revenue, it does give the manage
ment the pleasure of playing hosts
to those attending the fair Mr..
He'll said.
The 1862 fair will mark Timon-
ium's list year. Mr.. VIM. F.
Schluderberg, President, is proud
of the high standards the Mary
land State Fair has attained, "and'
Mr.. Schluderberg stated, 1--WE will
keep it that way for the people of
Maryland-it is their fair"
