as a private citizen.”
After reminding the President in
his letter of resignation of his previously -€Xpressed wishes to resign, Byrnes said: ; “I think V-day is not far distant. My knowledge of the nature of the work now confronting the office causes: me to conclude T should not, remain longer. . . . I am convinced that the persom who is to direct the reconversion’ program should take charge of this office now.

“He would then have an opportunity to familiarize himself with the plans we have made and can modify in such manner as he deems wise the plans he will be called “ upon to administer.” - Byrnes’ letter was dated March i 24, | ‘ “Dear Jimmie” Mr. Roosevelt replied to the for-. A mer supreme court justice in a let3 @ ter dated March 31 with the salu- . b tation “Dear Jimmie.” Mr. Roose- : velt sald he was- reluctant to accept Byrnes’ resignation but he had @ no alternative, knowing his desires bs to retire from public life. H “Although you go,” the President said, “I shall like to think that at \ any time in the future, I can avail ke * myself of your wisdom, knowledge 4 and understanding.” 8 , Mr. Roosevelt sald it was not pleasant to contemplate the severance of a relationship which has been “as delightful to me personally as it has been of advantage to the : national interest.” “I shall always remember the 8 many burdens which you have § taken from my shoulders,” the 4 President said. “The nation has been fortunate in these times of stress and strain that we could fall back on the counsel you were able to give us out of an experience i gained in the discharge of so many 3 positions of the highest trust and responsibility. As legislator, as jurist sitting on the highest court in the land, you had a long preparation for the service which .you have given your country in these war years.”

Since May, 1943 Byrnes, a 65-year-old South Carolinian, has been ,mobilization di- . rector since May 27, 1943, when the office was established. In the post he has co-ordinated the entire war effort on the home front and has 1 had the task of deciding how much . : of the nation's resources should be devoted to military production and | how much should be used to meet | essential civilian needs. Byrnes last spring became much interested in getting the DEmoe¢ratic party's vice presidential nominati and thought he had an o. k. trom ] the President, after -Mr. Roosevelt in’ o | effect had ditched the then-vice i president, Henry A.

TWO INDIANAPOLIS officers, long-time members of the Indiana national guard, have been given new assignments with the 38th division on Luzon. Lt, Col. Garrett W. Olds, former
Indiangpolis lawyer, has been transferred to the general staff corps and assigned as G-1 (personnel) officer on the staff of Brig. Gen. William C.. Chase, commanding general of the 38th division. Col. Olds previously had been adjutant general of the 38th for

You may -not win The TimesCity Recreation Division tournament to open April 16 and close May 19. But you'll have a let of fun. And, since all tournament games are played for fair, it. won't cost you any marbles. You'd better know the tournament rules, too, so you'll know your rights. Here they are: 13 in the Ring The game played is ringer. It's played with 13 marbles in a 10-foot ring. The marbles, or commies as they are called, are arranged in the center to form a cross. To win a game it is necessary to shoot at least seven of the commies. out-of the ring. Touching one side of the ring, of course, is the lag line. Without this it wouldn't be possible to lag and
|find out who may shoot first.
To lag you stand with your toes on a line called a pitch line and shoot or. toss- your shooter as close to the lag line as possible. The pitch line is across from the lag line, fauching the other .side of the ring.

the past four and a half years. Maj. John Fissell, whose wife, Bernice, lives at 401 8. McClure str, succeeds Col. Olds. Before the war he was with the adjutant general's office of Indiana. A veteran of the Mexican war and world war I, Col. Olds is the Husband of Mrs. Ivy A. Olds, 1015 N. Delaware st. ~ The two officers entered active federal service with the 38th division in January, 1941, and have been overseas 15 months, serving in Hawaii and New Guinea.
Here Are Rules to Follow In City Marble Tourney
close your shooter came to the lag line." To shoot you must knuckle down just outside the ring line, with at least one of your knuckles flat to the ground. Whenever your shooter, or taw, stops on the ring line it is considered out of the ring if its center is outside the ring, and in the Ting if its center is inside the ring. No Hunching. It’s against the rules to hunch, or Jift your hand forward, until the
shooter has. left your hand. It's also against the rules to smooth the ground to make your shooter roll easier. And of course you can't walk through the ring. It wouldn't stay smooth long if this were allowed. There's no need, now, for you and the kid next door to spend your time arguing over the rules. They're right here for you. Better spend your time sharpening your eye. And watch your school bulletin board for further information about the tournament.

Manpower Bill's ' Defeat Seen WASHINGTON, April 2 (U.P) —
The resignation of War Mobilizer | James FP. Byrnes appeared today to
have clinched senate defeat of the!
compromise manpower bill,
Senate opponents of the con-|
troversial job-freeze measure had been confident before the Byrnes announcemeént that the bill would be defeated. Now, they said, the
margin will be greater. | Senator Kenneth 8S, Wherry (R. Robert Lester Hunter,
Neb.) predicted “an even more de-| cisive” defeat for the bill. . “The administration has now re-
g ’ ~-gigned not for war, but to con. ? trol manpower during the reconvefsion period,” he said. “Many who were doubtful have swung against the bill because of this.” “My Byrnes was the first man to admit this and he deserves credit.”
