ATLANTIC CITY, Dec. 5.-The
CIO today was embarked on a
program Of intensified organiza-
tional and political activities
under new leadership.
The general objectives Of the
CIO were set by its new president.
Walter P. Reuther. dynamic 45-
year-old president Of the United
Automobile Workers, who was
elected to take over the helm Of
the CIO from the late Philip
Murray, former coal miner.
Mr.. Reuther fixed these two
objectives as basic in the new
regime:
/. Organization into CIO unions
of the millions of white collar
workers. described by Mr.. Reuther
as the "disinherited of America, :"
who he says suffer from low pay
and poor working conditions. Or
ganization of workers in the
South. who for years have proved
an unreachable plum" to the
labor unions.
2. An unprecedented program of
political activity designed to make
labor's voice authoritative in the
elections. To Mr.. Reuther, the po-
litical horizons of a fully united
labor movement are unlimited.

Meanwhile. it was learned that
Mr.. Reuther will 60 to a hospital

president Of the CIO, 3.O79,181 to
2,613,l03. in an election based on
the per capita membership of the

Murray. David j. Mcdonald. act

The World Today

WASHINGTON R,-Some of
the professional Democratic poll
ticians are repeatedly worried that
Gov Stevenson may use up his
ammunition too fast.
Their thinking seems to go like
this:
If he spells out in detail his
position on all the issues to earley
in the campaign, which opened
yesterday,by the end of the cam
paign he'll sound like a scratched
phonograph record: repeating him
self.
But this seems to be hazard
he faces only if his ideas are SO
limited, and the issues so few,
that all he has to say can be
said in the first few weeks.
Running out of something to say
is fate which seldom overtakes
a politician, and Gov. Stevenson
has had some political experience.
Since Gen. Eisenhower is so
much better known than he is,
Stevenson may feel it's necessary
to start shooting with both barrels
early to get attention.
He may also feel that since he's
running for the presidency, he has
an obligation to make his position
clear and that's the only way he'd
want to run.
Some of the people around Eisen-
hover have indicated that the gen.
eral is pacing himself, that he aims
to pick up steam as he goes along
and have plenty of socko left for
the windup.
There is a hazard in this STRAIT
egy, too, of course. If Stevenson
states his position on the main
issues early and Eisenhower later
come along and takes a similar
stand, the Democrats are cinch
to tag him with "me, too"
The fact that men in both camps
are discussing whether the candi-
dates should lay it on the line on
all the issues early is pretty good
evidence they haven't laid much
on the line yet.
About the most definite thing
either of them has said so far was

Observation-Disclosures mer-
chant marine is about to enter a
contender for top honors among
the worlds cargo carriers.
The first of the new Mariner
class of ships, the S. S. keystone
Mariner, will breast the seas in
September. The Maritime Admin
istration (MA), which is having
the ships built, says they will be
the largest and fastest cargo car
riers afloat.
Their speed will be about %
knots approximately 26 land miles
per hour compared with 10 knots
for the Liberty ships of World War
II. They will carry 10000 tons of
cargo compared with 10000 tons
for the Liberty ships. MA spokes-
men say their efficiency will give
them great advantage over all
foreign competition.
Part of Defense Set-up
The development of both the
Mariners and the liner United
States was spurred by defense
needs. With submarines becoming
faster and more deadly, faster
ships are needed to carry troops
and supplies safely across the seas

Fly Free Date
September 80

"Fly-free date" for sowing
wheat in Franklin County is
September 30, according to George
B. Ganyard, Franklin County
Agricultural Agent.
Wheat sown on or after Sept
ember 30, will not be through
the ground in time to provide a
place for the Hessian fly to
deposit its eggs. Wheat sown at
this time through the years pro-
duced slightly higher yields than
wheat sown earlier or much later.
Wheat plants infested with Hes
sian fly usually break over before
harvest. Where the infestation is
heavy, considerable reduction in
yields result. Farmers generally
have learned the value of obServ-
ing the "fly-free" date so that
infestation is relatively slight
Even a few early sown fields
provide enough breeding places to
keep the fly with us and provide
a continuing threat of infestation.
Observance of the "fly-free" date
is a part of the eternal vigilance
which is the price of Freedom"

vessels until they are sold. No
bids have been invited yet since
the MA has not determined what
a fair price would be. Much hinges
on the outcome of the current con-
troversy over the sale price of the
S. S. United States.
Wha. Operators Get
NSA uses private companies for
the actual work of ship opera
ton, paying the companies their
costs plus SIS per day.
1t is under these arrangements
that the NSA is now operating 300
World War II Victory and Liberty
ships-the worlds largest cargo
fleet under one owner. The YES
sells are used mainly to transport
defense and foreign aid supplies.
After the outbreak of the Ko-
rean War 700 of the 2,20O vessels
left over from the war and laid up
at anchorages, were put into serv-
ice. With the recent decline in the
demand for shipping space, chief
ly because of the decrease in for
eign aid shipments, 400 of the
ships have been put back into their
anchorages.
