Heading the worlds largest

end of her two-year term as
leader of an organization OF
more than $1,000 clubs with

CAPE: With the emphasis
this season on the ladylike
and elegant. the cape has
made a triumphant comeback
on many levels of fashion.
You'll see three-quarter capes
in heavy wool for daytime
wear, elegant cashmere and
fur capes, some floor-length,
for evening. The capped suit
is new and significant. Look
for the fitted or belted suit
with its own hip-length cape.
Or. the graceful suit with a
simulated capelet effect worked
INTO the back of the jacket.

ION the optimistic side, a re-
commentator for even five per
cent is seen as improving the
prospects for a successful salary
campaign" it said. ANY recon-
mendation at all is taken as an
indication that official recogni-
ton is given to the need for a
salary adjustment"
Reports are that the admins
tration will take the offensive in
pay raises. rather than waiting
for Congress to take the initiative
and then automatically oppos-
ing them.
1t has been said the executive
branch will propose a slight
raise, maybe S per cent, as an
interim measure while appoint
ing a commission to study the
whole Federal pay structure.
1.-The comment of cautious
people is that if Congress wishes
to raise the official percentages
there will. of course, be full lati-
tude to make such upward adj
justments." the Bulletin said.
Official circles continue to
think in terms Of balancing liv-
ing costs rather than ADJUST
ing Federal employe income to
living standards. Evidence is
mounting that there will be one
more futile attempt to have
Government enjoy the music
without paying the piper" it
added.
Several members of Congress
already have said they will at
tempt to increase any admins
tration proposal seeking only a
S per cent raise.
The Government Employees
Council. which represents a
number of Federal workers
unions, has designated the week
of February 10 as Salary Rally
Week." and is urging its locals
across the country to press for
salary raises in a grass-roots
campaign during that period.
The heavily organized postal
workers regularly lead the way
in seeking new benefits for Gov

3. Ruled unanimously in an
unsigned written opinion that
Federal contractors on the $l.3
million Air Force Base project
lat Little Rock, Ark. cannot be
required to obtain a State IL
cense.
4. Upheld a United States
Court Of Appeals decision here
that an alien, excluded from
admission to the United States
can seek judicial review of such
exclusion orders either by ha-
beas corpus proceedings or by
action under the Administra-
tive Procedure Act to obtain a
declaratory Judgment in court.
The Government contended that
an alien in such cases could file
only a habeas corpus petition
or make an administrative ap-
peal to the Attorney General.
The case decided yesterday was
brought in behalf of Tom We
Shung who first was excluded
from admission to the United
States despite his claim that he
is the son of an American
soldier.
Rules Against Government
S. Declared. in a 60 opinion
delivered by Justice Reed, that
railroads are not required to give
the Government lower rates on
export shipments than it gives
to private shippers when the
Government provides its own
wharfage and handling services.
The case involved about 100000
in rate charges on Army ship
ments to Government piers at
Norfolk, Va. during the Korean
War. Justice Black, joined by
Chief Justice Warren, dissented.

Der IL decision will result al
most Immediately in the send
ing of a mandate to Montgom-
cry. This will call for legal COM
pliance which had been held up
pending action on reconsidera-
ton petitions filed two weeks
ago.
Indicates Firm Stand
The notice OF the decision,
while applying only In the
Montgomery case, is regarded as
a firm indication that the court
will take the same stand in any
similar suits against State or To-
cal segregation laws concerning
such transportation.
The unanimous refusal to re-
consider came without comment
in the courts orders yesterday.
By implication at least. it re-
jected claims by Montgomery
officials and the Alabama Public
Service Commission that the Mo-
vember IL decision "wrongfully"
deprived the State of its police
powers. 1t also indicated that
the court has no intention of
revising or reversing its earlier
finding against the so-called
separate but equal" facilities
doctrine on which racial segre-
cation on buses often was based.
The Supreme Court Justices
started a recess today until
January IA. More than 30
argued cases remain to be de-
cided and more than 100 review
petitions are pending.
Among other opinions and or
ders announced at yesterdays
short session were those which:
/. Helped to aid navigation by

that Senator Purtell's (Repub-

dictated in his announcement
that the move would be "prima-
rily exploratory" with debate

duce valuable information on
the possibility of the shorter

Union leaders have found in
the past that such proposals
