All men in the United States army for whom the army doesn’t have “useful employment” will be released in three or four weeks, ' Senator Edwin C. Johnson (D. Colo.), ranking Democrat on the Senate military committee and a consistent critic of army policy, was encouraged by Marshall's “assur ances that they are not going to keep non-essential men regardless of the point system and that all two-year men will get out by riext spring.” Johnson pointed out, however, that the promised release of twoyear men was at variance with army testimony last week that the army still will need 900,000 men of two or more years service by the end of next June. That was based on the estimate that army strength still will be 2,500,000 men at that time. Senator Homer Ferguson (R. Mich.), said Marshall failed to clear up a question of whether transportation or processing machinery is the limiting factor on the speed of demobilization. Mar=-

Mr. Prankensteen has brought up a lot of local issues regarding airports, water front improvements and slum elimination. He says he wants fo be mayor of Detroit “for all the people—what's good for Detroit is good for labor, and what's good for labor is good for Detroit.” The issues apparently boil down to whether the people will choose a mayor from the labor union that

Dick Frankensteen has tried to remove the “purely labor” tag from his political effort. He wants to be known as a candidate who as mayor would be fair. Frankensteen was judged to have an even chance or better when this writer was in Detroit several months ago. Now his chances appear to be less. The main reason is the upsurge of reconversion strikes. Frankensteen took a long chance and barged into the middle of the strike most vitally affecting Detroit reconversion. This was at the Kel-sey-Hayes wheel plant affecting Ford production. He said if he could help settle it the result might convince the people of Detroit that a mayor from union labor would be a good choice. The Kelsey-Hayes company has just cancelled its contracts with the

ing irresponsibility of the union.

Com~ pany officials said the strike had developed from the temporary layoff of 2200 employes as result of lack of truck parts from strike-bound plants. Some 85,000 men were idled by labor disputes in Detroit, where a corps . of seven labor department conciliators were at work in an effort to iron out the trouble. ¢ Hearings were ordered immediately in the strike of 4500 KelseyHayes Wheel Co. workers that had forced the layoff of 50,000 Ford Motor Co. employees.
