GEN. MacARTHURS HEADQUARTERS, Australia, April 17 (Ut PJ). Maj. Iynn Cowan, Van Nuys, Cal, has embarked on a one-man campaign against Australian blue laws which prevent American soldiers from seeing movies on Sunday. He may seek special theaters for UL. S. troops, he said today. A week of arguments among churchmen regarding Sunday movies was brought to a climax at Sydney yesterday when at a fonference on “Australias convictions of how the Sabbath should be observed" Maj. Cowan Jumpedup and said: “There are 125000000 Americans. We are not heathens. We go to church and we also have forms of amusement we want. We are not asking you to give up anything re-

ligious in this country. But we are going to have entertainment for our bays." Maj. Cowan chief of Gen. Douglas MacArthur's special service organization concerned with morale

of troops. He said here today that he in. tended to make arrangements for stadiums, sports grounds, tenni§ courts and golf links for use by American troops. “Despite clergymen and others” Maj. Cowan said here today, “we must remember that there is a war. Our boys fight it seven days a week. When they are off they must and will be entertained.” Walter Howard, San Anignio. Tex, and C. K.

ROBBINS CASE JUDGE DISQUALIFIES SELF

VINCENNES. Ind, April 17 (U, £) Judge William F. Dudine .of Jasper disqualified himself late yesterday as special trial judge in the state's prosecution of Herman NM. Robbins, Knox superior jurist charged with moral crimes against minors, on the ground he was “biased and prejudiced.” “1 feel I could not give the defendant a fair and impartial trial" Judge Dudine told opposing counsel at a court session closing the record of Judge Robbins’ first trial. The initial prosecution of Judge Robbins was dismissed by the state last week on a motion upheld by Judge Dudine after the state's principa! witness, a 14-year-old boy, refused to testify against the defendant. Prosecutor Arthur Hart has indicated he would bring Judge Robbins to trial again on one or all of the four remaining indictments against him. A new trial judge will be selected {by opposing counsel from a panel {of three names drawn up by the {state supreme court clerk, both state {and defense counsel striking out one | name.

DELAY AVOIDED ON LABOR BILL

Move to Postpone Action Lost by Tie Vote in House Committee.

WASHINGTON, April 17 (U. P). ~The house naval affairs committee today defeated on a tie vote a motion to delay consideration of labor and profits legislation for 80 days. The vote was 9 to 9 which, under parliamentary procedure defeated the motion. Rep. Melvin J. Maas (R. Minn), who might have broken the tie, declined to vote. : Rep.. Thomas A. Flaherty Mass), who made the motion to postpone action, said: “It is important that we: await the deliber-

the government.” President Roosevelt and his labor war board reportedly have been discussing a labor stabilization program,

Early Action Sought

Committee Chairman Carl Vinson (D. Ga.), urged that the committee take action on his bill within the next few day. The Vinson measure would lengthen the basic work week to 48 hours, freese closed shop conditions as of March 1, and limit war profits to 8 per cent, plus $6000. Meanwhile members of President Roosevelt's “labor cabinet” had served notice of “determined and uncompromising opposition to the stabilization or freezing of wages." In the senate, where debate on the Connally plant seizure bill is scheduled to begin Monday, a labor subcommittee asked congressional bill drafters to prepare a revised form of the conciliation bill introduced by Senator Joseph H. Ball (R. Minn) and to include a proposal by Senator Robert A. Taft (R. 0) for wage freezing with certain exceptiohs permitting increases adjusted to the cost of living.

No Action Is Taken

The subcommittee took no action on the bill. It will be considered Monday morning—before senate debate—by the full labor committee as & possibl® substitute for thd Connally bill, which extends the government’s plant seizure power, The Ball bill, as now drafted. seeks to separate the function of labor mediation from the settlement of labor disputes. It would utilize the war labor board as a mediation board, and create a new three-mem-ber commission to handle disputes as a sort of “supreme court” for such matters, Senator Ball asked the drafters to revise also his provision which in effect would freeze existing closed and open shop relationships.

Oppose Double Check

Labor's opposition to “stabilization or freezing” of wages was conveyed to President Roosevelt yesterday by the A. F. of L.-C. I. O. “cabinet” in a session at the White House. A. F. of L. President Wilitam Green said after the meeting that the group had discussed the wage control section of the administration's anti-inflation program. He said organized labor contended that disputed union demands for wage increases generally are decided by

erts a control over earnings. “We object to a double check,” Mr. Green said. “We would have not only a check by a war labor board (under any freezing of wages) but a check by an executive order

freezing wages.”

of getting the same floor walker to approve the check. He recognized her and her arrest followed. The woman, Mrs. Scena Moore, Carlisle, Ky., is said to be wanted in several other cities on bad check charges. She was sentenced to two to 14 years in the women's prison by Judge Dewey E. Myers in Criminal court today.

HINT PURGE OF ITALIAN CHIEFS

Private Advices Indicate Hundreds of Duce’s Aids Weeded Out.

By UNITED PRESS The biggest purge in the declining career of Premier Mussolini is sweeping out some of the highest officials of the Fascist party, private advices from the continent said today. N Hundreds of Fascists are involved, and, it was indicated, they include ministers, undersecretaries and, especially, presidents of Italy's 19 confederations. Some were caught in black market operations and war speculations. Others, it was reported, were purged for luke-warmness, or outright frigidity, toward Italy's Nazi

The first symptoms of the purge appeared last summer, it was said, when a number of prominent Fascist newspaper men were “eliminated” and Achille Starace, tough leader of the party, replaced.

None Being Spared

But lately, it has grown in proportion and is sparing none, the advices said. Italian newspapers reaching neutral countries do not give the names of replacements, In connection with reports that many Fascist leaders have lost stomach for the war and the Germans, a recent article in the Fascist press by Secretary of National Education Giuseppe Bottai said: “The Fascist party in the nearest future must undergo a thorough purge. All lukewarm members, even in high ranks. who fail to understand the importance of the moment in which we are living must be replaced by younger generations

grown in the climate of revolution.”
