the Army renewed its efforts,

The test results were pleasing

men soon viii be wearing bright
new uniforms.
The dull olive drab and khaki
uniforms win be replaced by
grey-green uniforms s.of q new
cut. The color will be officially
known as Army Green.
Although the Army is .still re-
luctant to say definitely that the
change will be made, it has gone
so far as to show the new uni
form to Congress. It got ap-
proving mods. i.
The Army plans to start is
suing the uniform in about 1S
months but estimates that ii
will take a couple of years to
completely outfit its men. ~ss.
The cap will be a conventional

It also will be mendat tory dress
for officers who aren't actiyely
training troops in the field or
whose duties don't require spe-
cial uniforms.
Reasons for Change.
The Army has q number of
reasons for wanting to change
the present uniform.
First, the olive drab Jacket
and trousers were primarily
chosen for camouflage purposes
and not for appearance.
The uniform is becoming less
distinctive with thousands of
foreign troops. displaced persons
and former Servicemen wearing
parts or all of the uniform. 2
The Army says too that the
present uniform was designed as
q dual-purpose garment for both
Held and, general duty wear.
This makes it frequently too in
formal for use at ceremonies

and smart appearance"

court declared. 1T cannot Seri-
Ously be asserted, therefore,
that significant hardship to
stockholders is likely to occur
If the controversial quarterly
dividend is delayed"
The opinion pointed out the
responsibility of the commission
to look out for the public in
terest. 1t said therefore that
courts should be reluctant to
take any action which would
deprive the commission of op-
portunities to perform it's obli-
cations.
COYrt Split 2 to 1.
The courts opinion was split.

Edgerton and Charles Fahy con-
curing in the majority opinion.
Judge Wilbur K. Miller wrote a
dissenting opinion in which he
opposed the injunction against
the dividend payment of 40 cents
a share.
The record shows, think, "
Judge Miller said, that such
payment will not impair the
utility's capital nor it's ability to
furnish adequate service. In
those circumstances the commits
sion does not have statutory au-
thority to forbid the payment of
a dividend from earned surplus,
nor do think the court is iuSti-
fled in forbidding the payment" "
Officials of the transit COM

sion would not comment pend

Possible next course of action
for the company would be to

steadying hand on Mr.. Adams
shoulder.
Friends Are Uncertain.
To some caucus-room observ-
ers, Mr.. Adams, who has repu-
tation as a Pentagon quipster,
looked like a slightly overtrained
fighter whose fine edge had
passed into edginess. Noting
that he could be glib and sar-
castle, they wondered just how
much good he would do his own
and the Army's cause at the
heated hearings.

circumstances of its composition
and delivery with an exactness
that satisfied even Special Com

who likes to have every 81"

Mr.. Jenkins asked him if there
was anything else that the COM
mittee should know about it, Mr..

have not told YOU"

seemed to have cooled off little

at Senator Mccarthy and Mr..

He answered Mr.. COINS ques-
tions just as fast as Mr.. Cohn
asked them. He took a little more
time with a couple of hypothet-
ical questions from Senator
Mccarthy.
Shuns Martyrs Role.
Mr.. Adams has. in short, given
ample notice that he will not be
the long-suffering witness that
Secretary Stevens has been. He
doesn't appear to be about to
take anything from anybody.
If these hearings ever get back
on the track, they must eventu-
ally lead to the thorny issue OF
who is telling the truth: Mr..
Adams and Mr.. Stevens or Sena-
tor Mccarthy, Mr.. Cohn and Mr..
Carr.
Mr.. Adams seems more willing
to take hold of this prickly ques-
tion than the committee men,
bers.
His first time up. when Mr..
jenkins offered him contention
presented by Senator Mccarthy,
with considerable heat, Mr..
Adams retorted: "The mere fact
that he says it doesn't mean it's
true"
When Mr.. Adams relieves Mr..
Stevens on the witness stand, it

administration officials that the
country's economy has turned
the corner from a downturn that
began last year.
Economically speaking, things
almost always pick up in the
spring as the weather-particu-
larly for outdoor industry-im-
proves. But the gain this time
was lower than that which nor
mally takes place in April.
For example. in 1850, when the
Nation was emerging from a
postwar recession, employment
gained 1,117,000 from March to
April while unemployment de-
clined 608.O00.
Manufacturing employment
dropped 250,000 between March
and April. to a total of Is mil
lion. The level of this type of
employment this April was 1.3
million below a year ago.
1t was noetd that the lateness
of Easter this year made the
employment figures seem more
optimistic than they actually
were. The Government survey
was made in the earlier part of
the month and caught the full
upswing of employment in stores
and retail trade in general.
Normaly the increase in the
number of jobs due to the Easter
trade is reflected earlier.
Also, on the pessimistic side,
the survey showed that the av-
erage work week of the employed
persons had declined nearly two
hours over the past year to
about 80 hours a week. In April
about 100000 fewer persons
than a month earlier put in a
work week of 35 hours or more.
