LONDON. Oct. al Tugmen
eased the liner Queen Elizabeth
out Of Southampton Harbor in
q loyal gesture to Britain's Queen
Mother today--and then began
debating whether to join the
waterfront strike which has par
alyzed Britain's major seaports.
Queen Mother Elizabeth. for
whom the ship was named, sailed
on the huge liner for New York
and a months visit to the United
States and Canada.
It has been feared that the
18-day dock stoppage. now in
volving more than $4,000 men,
might hamper her departure.
Brought In Stern-First.
The liner was brought into the
harbor stern-first upon arrival
from Cherhourg Monday so it
would be easier TO mane1lver into
the open sea II the tugmen quit
work.
But a spokesman for the tug
workers told reporters last night.
"We will see the Queen off be-
fore we decide anything" and
they kept their word.
The walkout, loudly backed by
British Communists, stems from
a demand by dockers for the
right to reject overtime work.
Fewer than half OF the strikers
have the backing Of various
unions involved.
Queen Alters Schedule.
Young Queen Elizabeth II, who
began this morning a two-day
tour of South Lancashire, made
pointed change in her sched-
ule to avoid the picketed Liver
pool dock area.
She and her husband, the
Duke of Edinburgh had arranged
to visit the Canada Dock Works
at Liverpool but Buckingham
Palace announced last night
they would see the Liverpool
School OF Tropical Medicine in
stead.
The still-growing stoppage
held 298 ships idle In London,
Liverpool, Birkenhead, Hull.
Southampton, Garston and Ro-
chester.
Fewer than $4,000 of the ma
tion's $4,000 cargo handlers were
working.
Food Supply Dwmdles.
Food reserves, especially of
imported eggs, butter and bacon
were dwindling.
| Prime Minister Winston
Churchills government gave no
sign of any immediate intention
to use troops for unloading es-
sential imports as has Teen done
in previous major dock tieups
A government board Of inquiry
which began investigating the
dispute yesterday, is expected to
continue hearings until Satur-
day. The government likely will
wait until the inquiry ends before
ordering out troops. Plans tc
put soldiers to work already are
formulated.

Five teen-age girls remaining
in jails throughout Virginia were
to be removed today as State
and county officials hustled to
prevent future long-term deten-
ton of juveniles in unsatisfac-
tory lock-ups.
But there was no immediate
guarantee that other youngsters
might not find themselves in a
predicament like the 16-year-old
Loudoun County girl who was
held SO days in an overnight po-
lice lookup.
Col. Richard Copeland, State
director of Welfare and InStitu-
tions, ordered an inventory OF
all juvenile delinquents commit
ted to State custody who are
awaiting transfer to State cor
rection institutions. He said he
knew of five girls still being
held in jails throughout the
State, and promised that all
of them would be moved out OF
Jail today.
Of the five girls scheduled to
be moved, Col. Copeland re-
ported:
One was held in the Halifax
County Jail and goes to Bon
Air, the State Training School
for Girls at Richmond.
Three were in the Pulaski
County Jail and go to the Roam
oke Detention Home.
One was in the Wythe County
Jail and is bound for the Roam
oke Detention Home.
The Fairfax Board of County
Supervisors, meanwhile, renewed
a move to remodel the aban-
doned old Fairfax Jail building
into a detention home for young
sterS.
LOudoun Girl Transferred.
| It was the Fairfax County po-
lice lookup at Groveton where
the Loudoun County girl was
held until newspaper publicity
prodded State officials into
transferring her yesterday to
Bon Air.
The girl was committed to
State custody by a Loudour
County judge. Loudoun Coun-
ty temporarily is without jail
so she was sent to the Fairfax
lookup to await transfer to the
State institution.
Col. Copeland acknowledged
that his department had faller
behind during the past month
in picking up girls committed tt
State custody. He said this wa.
because Bon Air already wa!
overcrowded, and remodeling O.

TO SHORTEN TASKS
MRS. M. S., Bethesda
From time to time, inquiries
have appeared in RICH about
shortening disliked tasks.
have two solutions to this.
First of all, time yourself on
doing the thing your usual
way. If it's bed-making, for
instance. you just go through
the operation. You'll be
amazed at how little time it
actually takes. BY doing this,
you can think, Here comes
that five-minute operation,
bed-making." That makes it
silly for you to become irritat-
ed. Then you can investigate
short cuts such as contour
sheets, which are wonderful,
anc not crossing back and
forth so much. But, as I say,
timing it is essential. I never
liked changing the beds, but I
heard this SUGGESTION on a ra-
dio program one morning as
I was making the beds and
tried it on the spot. and was
amazed at how little time it
took me.

whenever a scholarship recipient
fails to pay back the debt by
practicing in a rural area, he is
required to make repayment in

THE LAST STRAW. Guy Lombardo began
his musical career in Ontario as violinist,
and used to lead his band with fiddle and bow
in hand One New Years Eve, however, a
group of other band maestros joined Guy at
the Roosevelt for late jam session. There
were Abe Lyman at the drums Freddy Martin
at the sax, Russ Morgan at the trombone and
Little Jack Little at the piano.
The customers waxed more and more exu-
berant and 80 did the musicians. Finally Abe
Lyman was so carried away by the spirits of
the occasion that he seized Lombardo's price,
less fiddle and splintered it over Little Jack
Little's noggin.
