General Grow Faces Court Martial Because Reds Copied From His Diary

WASHINGTON, (P) = T h e Army Monday brought court mar tial charges against Maj. Gen. Robert w. Grow, former military attache in Moscow, whose diary was copied by Communist agents in Germany last year.
 The Army announcement by Secretary Pace said that Grow had been charged with ''improp- erly recording classified military information in private records and failing properly to safeguard clas- sified military information"
 Grow had written in the diary that he thought war with Russia was imminent.
 General Grow has been assign ed to the headquarters of the Sec ond Army at Fort Meade, Md, since his return from Europe. His case has been referred to the commander of the Second Army, who will hold further hearings to determine whether the charges shall be referred to a formal court martial.

Gen. Mark Clark
 Appointed To Far East Command

WASHINGTON. R-General Matthew Ridgway's appointment to succeed Gen. Eisenhower drew mostly applause Tuesday, but Gen. Mark Clark, who gets Ridg- ways old command, faced criti- cism in Congress.
 In the Pentagon, the top-level reassignments Ridgway from Far East commander to head of Allied forces in Europe, and Clark from chief of army field forces to Far East commander - were viewed by some officials as:
 l. Result of decision by Presi-A dent Truman to side with Gen. Omar Bradley instead of Eisen- hover in choosing the new com mander of the NATO forces.
 2. Rewards to both Ridgway and Clark for past jobs well done.
 The criticism of Clark came from Sen. Long O-La), a mem Der of the Armed Services Com mittee.
 Clark's crossing of the Rapido River during the Italian campaign has been under previous congress sional fire. Bitter criticism of the maneuver was voiced by members of the Texas National Guard, which suffered heavy casualties.
 Senator Long said, "What we need now is field commander, not diplomat, and I have some reservations about the Clark ap- pOintment."

Carpenters Object To WSB Settlement Of Wage Dispute

ANCHORAGE, (P)-There were rumblings of discontent among AFL carpenters here Monday, de- spite official reports that terri tory-wide carpenters strike had been averted.
 Fred Williamson, president of Local 1281, said there was consid- erable objection over the possi- bility that a decision in the dis pute by the Wage Stabilization Board might be final.
 Federal Mediator Albin Peter son announced Saturday that the Alaska Council of Carpenters and the Associated General Carpen- ters agreed to submit the entire wage question to the WSB "to decide what the 1852 wage for carpenters should be-"
 He said the wage question would be "open at both ends"
 But apparently there was some misunderstanding among the car penters as to the exact role the board would play.
 "The carpenters never under stood, nor did they intend, that the decision of the WSB would be final" Williamson said. "They understood the case would go be- fore the board for recommen- dation."'
 Meanwhile, a telegram was sent to Washington, D.C., requesting clarification as to whether the WSB's decision would be final or simply a recommendation.
 "There has never been as yet any real negotiation of our prob lems," Williamson declared. "Now if the matter is to go before board which makes a final de- cision, all we can do is go before the board and beg. That is not negotiating"
 Williamson added that in nego- tiating wage problems, negotiating locally ''is right and privilege which you hate to have taken away from you"

arousing the American people to the full possibilities
of automotve vehicles and the necessity for providing
adequate system of and highways over which
these vehicles could operate swiftly comfortably and
safely As result shortly after the first World War;
the United States began building nationwide system
of hard-surfaced roads.
Most Present Highways Are Obsolete
Most of our present highways were designed and
built during those years, when speeds were low
when truck loads light and when the volume of
motor travel small. Twenty-fve years ago, there
only tVeny million motor vebicles Today, there
nearly tytvo million. Yet, during the past quarter
of century little has been done expand highway
system to keep pace with the growth in traffic volume
In an effort to prevent accidents, so many stop
signs and traffic lights have been installed that driving
has become irritating, aborous and slow In many of
our large cities traffic is heavy that it sometimes
faster walk than to ride The ansaVer seems to lie in
THE construction of ider streets and express eeways
rather than in trying make borse-amdbaggy streets
serVe red-b0rseb0sVer needs
Parking is another serious problem Street parking
narrows down the available lanes for traffic flow and
parked cars are hazard which frequently cause
accidents In many communities parking facilities
inadequate that disproportionate of time
must be spent trying find place park else the
car must be parked so far from the destination that
public transportation facilities must be used Many
believe that skyscraper parking buildings with
taxable frontage the street, and underground parking
garages will be the ultimate answer.
The basic principles of safety which learned
by young people during their formative years are likely
to remain with them throughout their lives Every high
school should provide course in driver training

ToR many years. we Americans were proud of our
4 system of streets and highways. But today, many
- OF them are. SO out-ofdate that they have become
liabilities rather than assets: Last gear, $500 men,
wonsen and children lost their ives in automobile
accidents, and large percentage OF them aOoa1 still
be al;0e if oar streets and bgbways adequate to
meet oar traffic needs.
The United States has two and half times as
many vehicles all the other countries of the
world combined. No other nation on earth relies so
heavily on automotive transportation for the
movement of people and products. More than 10000
communities completely dependent cars, trucks
and buses for all of their transportation needs Three
fourths of all passenger travel between cities towns
and farms goes by bus Twothirds of all freight
is shipped by truck during part of its journey
Therefore, it is Vital that the aatomotOe vebicles on
wbieb ae SO largely DEPEND be kept movng quickly,
economically and safely.
Accidents Cost $500, 900 900 in 1851
With automobile registrations increasing every
year, this situation will get worse as time goes on
unless steps taken Immediately by towns, Cities
countless and the federal government individually
and collectively, to modernze obsolete street and
highway systems. Americans beginning to realize
that installing more stop signs, re-routing trucks
reducing car speeds and other restrictive taken
in the interest of safety provide permanent solution
to the problem Last year, the economic loss from traffic
accidents totaled three and half billion dollars. This
is more than spent THE entire system OF highways
roads and streets.
Shortly after the turn of the century, my father
became leader In the Good Roads movement. Later,
in 1918, he pioneered the Ship-by- Truck movement
which gave impetus the development of the trucking
industry These two movements were instrumental in

good safety record as unframed drivers of the same
age Yet, today only aboe ont of every fVe eligible
bigb school students receives this instruction.
Another step essential the reduction of accidents
is the adoption of uniform signals, markings and traffic
laws Today for example, the various states have sixteen
different methods Of marking center lines and three
different rules for making left This situation
creates endless confusion in long distance travel.
Another of many accidents is unsafe vehicles
But Americas great nationwide network of automobile
gasoline and tire dealers, with their unmatched repair
and replacement facilities, makes it easy to keep
mobiles in safe driving condition at all times.
Acc0rding to competent authorities, it 4viU take
fve to seven billion dollars year for the nest fifteen
years to baM essential roads, to m0dernize existing
highways and to maintain present system satis-

the magnitude of the task that lies ahead.
PAR. Is New Good Roads Movement
Recently, some forty national organizations, rep
resentng highway users industry, business, agriculture
and other interested parties have united in an effort to
promote an adequate nationwide highway program.
This new Good Roads movement is called P. A. R.,
which stands for Project Adequate Roads, and its pur-
pose to bring the nations highway system up par
with countrys needs. If this movement to succeed

Our streets and highways are vitality important to
the future of country 1t is imperative that
centrate our attention on the chaotic conditions into

neglect and the tremendous increase in motor vehicle

Iranian Terms Broad
To Break Deadlock,
Britain Points Out
BY the Associated Press

LONDON, Aug. 30.-A Foreign
Office spokesman today described
the United States and British offer
to settle the Anglo -Iranian oil
crisis as being broad in char
acter and designed to break the
deadlock"
The terms were deliberately
made very general and expressed
simply so there might be an easy
approach to negotiations, unhin-
dered by small points at issue,
the informant said.
The Foreign Office spokesman
said the offer means that Britain
recognizes the fact of the ma
tionalization of the Iranian
petroleum industry" But it does
not necessarily imply that Britain
approves all details of the ma
tionalization legislation, or that
it yields on points of compensa-
ton to the lo-Iranian Oil Co.
The intervention of President
Truman and Prime Minister
Churchill in the oil crisis was Civ
ing new impetus to efforts to
come to a settlement, and the
British were ready to give careful
consideration to all Iranian
claims.
But the British were not con-
ceding, as Mr.. Mossadegh con-
tended in a note August Z, that
items of millions of pounds" are
due his government under terms
of the concession given to the oil

Union Shop Provision
In Rails Pact Seen
Victory for Labor
BY the Associofed Press

Organized labor has won a big
Skirmish in its fight for the union
shop by persuading Eastern rail-
roads to agree to the compulsory
union membership provision.
Long negotiations between the
Eastern carriers and II non-oper-
ating unions ended last night with
an agreement giving the unions
their demands.
Spokesman said that there were
important qualifications to the
agreement, letting some groups OF
workers out Of the requirement
that they become union members.
The extent Of these exemptions
was not Immediately determined.
However. a rail management
spokesman said the agreement
closely followed an emergency
boards recommendation several
months ago suggesting complete
union membership for all the mil
lion incorporating rail workers.
Some Have Union Shops.
A number Of the Eastern car
riers already have the union shop
agreement. They include the New
York Central, Baltimore & Ohio.
Reading, Leigh Valley and
Lackawanna railroads.
So this means that only a
portion of the estimated 400, 900
incorporating employees Of the
Eastern carriers will now come
under the union shop provision
for the first time. the others hav-
ing been covered previously.
The emergency board, named
by President Truman, recon-
mended that all the Nations rail-
