Niblack Forces

MUNICIPAL JUDGE John L. Niblack and his friends are going all-out in their fight to beat Prosecutor Sherwood Blue for re- : ‘nomination. Announced today was the fore mation of a Niblack-for-prosecu-tor club with an imposing list of members, including members of poth G. ©. P. factions in the county. President is Audley 8. Dunham, owner of a safe and lock company and long active in Republican politics. Mr. Dunham was an active supporter of County Chairman Henry E. Ostrom, the “regular’ candidate in the mayoralty fight in 1940. Head of the women's division is Mrs. J. C. Siegesmund of Irvington who had charge of the women's organization which supported Mayor Tyndall in his primary fight. Other officers are Dr. Sumner A. Furniss, vice president; Prank A. Symmes, treasurer, and Mrs Johii- W. Carter, secretary, Dr: Furniss is a former member of the city council, the first Negro ever elected to that body; Mr. Symmes is an attorney and former law partner of ex-U./ 8S. Senator Arthur Robinson. Mrs. Car-

The committee approved legislation to that effect, A subsequent statement by Gen. George C. Marshall, army chief of staff, declared that the air force could afford to release the 36,000 because U. 8. fliers were approaching complete air supremacy in practically all war theaters at a faster pace and with less losses than the army had dared to hope. He also revealed that enlistments of 17-year-old men in the air corps ree had been temporarily suspended, Part of General Pattern

The release of the air forces men seemed to form part of a general pattern of combing existing army ranks for all possible combat material without waiting for inductions to catch up with the 200,000 man deficit the army announced at the end of 1943. This, however, will not affect heavy induction schedules. At least three other recent moves have emphasized thé army's deters mination to put all possible troops into combat. ] {| One was curtailment of the army ispecialized training program from 145000 to 35,000 soldier-students, freeing an additional 110,000 for combat duty. | Another saving was made when

Pay Ceiling Hearings Seen |P As Face-Saving WLB Move By FRED W. PERKINS : Scripps-Howard Staff Writer WASHINGTON, March 23.~Controversy about whether the war lapor board is able to handle wartime labor disputes points in one direction—toward President Roosevelt.

The President set up this board as a tripartite agency, with equal

dent of the C. I. O. and the steelworkers, both of which ‘are represented on the war labor board, charged that both the A, F. of IL. and employer members of the board had made “desperate efforts to prevent the steelworkers from getting their case” before a board panel.

TLe tripartite plan has just emerged from a five-day strain in which the war labor board was tied up tight by its labor members, two representing the A. F. of L. and two the C. 1. O. : “The A. F. of L. and C. I. O. men argued as to whether their respective organizations were to get the “credit” in union ranks for leading the labor attack against the little steel formula of wartime wage controls,

Mr. Murray apparently took the view that the erfiployer members ‘and the A. F. of L. members of the board were acting in the interests of the groups from which they were named to board membership. He did not castigate the board's C. 1. O. members who have been looking out for the interests of the steelworkers. After the board had reached its compromise on the A. F. of L.-

C. I. O. dispute, Chairman Davis and public members Lloyd Garrison and Edwin Witte met with a delegation of 60 representatives of independent unions, not affiliated with either A. F. of L.or C. 1. O,, that want equal representation on the board with the major labor organizations.

In his announcement statement, Congressman Gillie said that “congress stands today as the bulwark against a tide of executive usurpation of power which threatens the very existence of our republic, “We hope and pray that dur-
