Veterans will get preference for government jobs. Job outlook in industry, however, is still a question mark. Some industrialists at first welcomed idea of “super-senlority” because they expected most vets to he anti-union. But no real antiunion activity has taken place among returned vets, This week a U. 8, Chamber of Commerce com~ mittee report observed that in industries with long-established seniority systems ‘the requirement of absolute reinstatement of a veteran to work is unreasonable and could not be carried out with out the complete disruption of employment relations.”

Reason: Dewey will need strong upstate support if he's to win governorship again and make another bid for presidency, and upstaters are overwhelmingly against seaway,

Yet as recently as Jan, 3. 1045, he declared, in a message to his state legislature: : “For years I have advocated the completion of the 8t, Lawrence seaway and power project.

the San Francisco conference, Russia also shocked the democracies. And it was a perfectly logical argument that started the fight. Russia then wanted the chairmanship of the United Nations meetings divided between the major powers and as it worked out, the division was good for all. But Russia's foreign minister Molotov took a verbal lacing for insisting upon this division of honors. Today, a great many observers of the international scene are indignant over Russia's claim to a part of the spoils of war in North Africa. Interested in Eritrea Molotov created the indignation by saying that Russia was “interested” in Eritrea, a narrow slice of rock and desert near the southern end of the Red sea. Molotov also expressed Russia's belief that Italy's old colony of Tripolitania might be a fine place for a Russian trusteeship. Tripolitania consists of little else than the city of Tripoli, but it contains also a large slice of the southern coast of the Mediterranean. This is precisely the same approach that Molotov made at San Francisco when the case for recognition of Argentina as a member of the United Nations was presented. He countered with a proposal that Poland be seated at the same time, He lost his case and Argentina

to large slices of Africa. Or to large slices of Asia. The United States also has a few areas such as the Ryukus and other Pacific islands where collective trusteeships are not agreeable. 80, in the case of former Italian territory, it was proposed that the victorious powers be given individual trusteeships, With the usual adroitness of a Communist trained in dfalectic, Molotov agreed—but with the provision that all of the victorious powers be given a share of responsibility, Tripolitania and Eritrea, for instance, might be likely places for Russian influence to be exerted. This is what startled the other members of the Big Five conference and brought down on Molotov’s head another shower of invective from the short-tempered press on both sides of the Atlantic. No one knows yet whether Russia intends to press its demand for a hold in north Africa. ‘ Shrewd Bargaining : Maybe this was only a shrewd piece of bargaining on the part of the toughest of the international traders, Or perhaps it is Russia's way of telling the western democracies this: It the veil is lifted from Romania, Poland, Bulgaria and Hungary, and all of the powers take a share in the adjustment of affairs in those border states, then Russia should be allowed to have a hand in the North African area.

The first debate centered on the “little port of Trieste at the top of the Adriatic where Italy foins with Yugoslavia, It is important because it Is the most convenient outlet to the Mediterranean and the ocean lanes of the world for Austria, Hungary and Yugoslavia. Italy grabbed Trieste from Austrian after the last war, The port and the surrounding country had been under Austrian rule since the 13th century. Now it has been internationalized by the Big Five ministers meeting in London who have placed it under a collective trusteeship. Yugloslavia would have been very pleased if Trieste had been placed under its ftrusteeship. So would Italy have liked such an arrangement, But the decision was for the collective plan.

The collective . trusteeship idea had worked so well in the case of Trieste and all seemed agreed that this principle was a sound one.

Gasoline on hand in Chicago was expected to last only one’ or two weeks, oil company executives said. Chicago was hard hit by shutdown of five big Calumet area refineries. Only one large producer, Standard Oil Co. of Indiana, remained operating, Standard Resists

Standard employees, members of an independent union, have resisted efforts of O. W. 1. U. members to enlist them’as strikers in the cause of wage increases. The independent unionists also have asked a 30 per cent pay raise and turned down a company offer of 15 per cent. The giant Carnegie-Illinois steel plant in Gary, Ind. was forced to slash production to only 83 per cent of capacity because of the fuel oil shortage. : fineries on the eastern seaboard, although not affected by strikes, reported they could supply only part of that area’s demands. Oil company officials said that if motorists in that region had to depend on local output the gasoline supply would allow them less than the wartime ration, Issue Ration Cards City officials in Toledo clamped down on free-for-all sale and formed a committee to issue gasoline rationing ecards to essential auto users, A meatless week-end loomed also for many Toledo residents, Oil workers picketed the Toledo Food Locker Co., operators of an dil plant. The city already was beset by a food handlers strike. Retail gasoline outlets in the populous Detroit area, where 7150 oil workers were on strike, were get~ ting almost no gasoline. Executive Director Rankin Peck of the Retail Gasoline Dealers association said the number of stations closing was “increasing hourly.” Other Refineries Closed

In Cleveland, where two oil plants were shut down, some filling stations were bereft of supplies by noon yestérday. Refineries also were closed in Cabin Creek, W. Va.: Dawes, W. Va.; Trenton, Mich.; East St. Louis, Ill; Port Arthur, and Houston, Tex. Other strike developments:
