McNutt Peeved Over Hines’ Job?

REFUSAL OF Mrs. Anna M. Rosenberg, New York City regional WMC director, to work with Brig. Gen, Frank T. Hines in his capacity as Yetraining and re-employment administrator for veterans, is taken here as indicating that her boss, Manpower Conimission Chairman Paul V McNutt, is still dissatisfied at his failure to draw the Hines job. McNutt thought it had been promised him by F. D. R., considers that since he controls the employment service, his agency and Hines’ will "be working at cross purposes. McNutt may still win out, -as he did some time ago over Gen. Hershey of selective service. 8 ”

Mme. ‘ Alexandra Kollontai, Soviet ambassador to Sweden. Stockholm newspapers reported that the Finnish parliament already had approved the government's answer to the six conditions laid down by Russia as-a necessary preliminary to any armistice in Russian-Finnish hostilities,

Tidningen quoted a “particularly i well-informed source” as saying that the Finns were asking for “more precise clarification” of questions left open by the Russian note, presumably including the demobilization of Finnish troops; reparations for damage in Russia and possession of territory around Petsamo. The reply also was said to emphasize that the Finnish government wants to maintain contact with Russia looking toward an eventual peace. A Finnish parliament session was called for Tuesday. Reports that Russia has insisted on a Finnish answer to the Soviet proposals by Sunday at the latest sremained unconfirmed, though it was obvious that the Russians would not give Finland unlimited time in which to reply.
