Some displaced persons in Europe see another war as their only hope. They think it is possible that after a war they could find a country which would accept , them and the work they could do. The Brethren Service Commission is co-operating with Church World Service in relocating some of these DP’s, thus showing them that there is away to hope other than war. : •/ It • > lO ft t -isl W?

Pres. Truman On Florida Vacation President Sleeps Late This Morning .Key West. Fla.. March 7—(UP) —History was made here today at the temporary White House. President Truman slept until 9:30 a.m. The chief executive normally | rises at 5:30 or six o’clock in the I morning. On some occasions he I has been known to sleep as late as I eight o’clock. But today, all records were broken. A battery only two hundred yards from his waterfront quarters fired a 281-gun salute at eight o'clock. Mr. Truman was sleeping so sound- | ly that he did not awaken until the I 17th slavo was fired. He heard the | last four, then rolled over and went I back to sleep. (The salute was not fired upon I his arrival here yesterday because | it was Sunday.) After breakfast the President headed for the enlisted men's I beach and a forenoon swim in the bright sun with his staff. Meantime. William D. Hassett, I secretary to the President, an-| nounced that he would be joined here later this week by chief justice of the United States Fred M. Vinson. Hassett said Vinson's visit? Would; be purely social. Hassett created a minor mystery I by disclosing that a proposal had been made to install a “synthetic orange juice machine" on the naval station. Hassett said it was not a White House matter, but one on which the Florida newspapers might like to sound out public opinion'. He didn’t know who offered the machine, where it might be placed or how "synthetic’’ orange juice is concocted. Mr. Truman's unprecedentedly late rising hour reflected his desire for a good rest. He flew here yesterday from Washington and will break his holiday routine tomorrow for a quick visit to Rollins College at Winter Park. Fla., where he will receive an honorary degree. ■ ft was learned meanwhile that 1 secretary of army Kenneth Royall's departure from the government may 6e made public before March 20. Administration insiders have said for sometime that Royall, a tall North Caffflinian. would be the next major government official to follow secretary of defense James V. Forresttl into private life. I The American Friends Service! Committee has accepted a U. N. Invitation to participate in the Palestine refugee program, assuming responsibility for that program; in the Arab-controlled Gaza areal adjacent to Egypt. Clarence E.; Pickett, executive secretary of the committee, has flown to Cairo to take temporary charge of this mis- ! stem. The small Quaker relfef project in Israel will also be continued. While serving as President of: the United States, Herbert Hoover gave away all of his presidential, salary for charitable purposes.

From Page One) j governor Schricker’s plan for distrii bating motor vehicle funds on a 15- ; 30-55 per cent basis abong cities, counties and the state, respectively. They held out for a 17-33-50 split and added they would not go along for both a one-cent gasoline tax increase and a hike in motor vehicle' license fees. The bonus plan was the only top issue still unsettled. More than a dozen conference committees, appointed after the two politically divided houses failed to agree, labored over compromise proposals. But whether these issues, including the top-ranking Hoosier soldier bonus question, would l>e resolved by the time the session ended was a matter of conjecture. So was thq time of adjournment. Traditionally, the legislative clocks ere stopped .before the hands ! touch midnight and the lawmakers igo ahead and finish their work I whjle other clocks are clicking hours into the next day. Legislators' predictions on adjournment time varied- from early I Tuesday to sometime Thursday. I The legislature stayed in session all da/ Saturday and until shortly ■ jfter midnight. Governor Schricker stayed In his office, too, conferring I frequently with his own party |ers amd with top men in the GOP legislative groups.

The bills were similar excent for the makeup of the board administering the unit program. The least controversial favored township trustees, the other — the one with bjrely a constitutional majority — put administration in the hands of a five-memlmr board. Tne house previously passed beth MPs.
