Allied lives, therefore, were lost.

~ Moreover, the only reason Franco didn't dare take more positive action was that the allies had ‘made elaborate preparations to destroy the dictator if he tried—and had deliberately let him find out about these preparations. ©. There were three main’ parts to the allied plan: FIRST: An allied force was held in reserve in England, ready to invade Spain if Franco should strike. This, again, meant that Gen. Eisenhower had still fewer troops available for his main effort. SECOND: Anti-Franco elements

President "and By Byrnes Talk| Over Big 3 Results. (Continued From Page One)

on Tuesdays and Friaays, instead of one. More important, Mr. Byrnes explained that Gen. Douglas MacArthur was not kept posted on the Moscow discussions because policymaking was up to the President of the United States. He added that Gen. MacArthur's views had been asked and received in advance. He again emphasized that he was always conscious of the necessity of preserving. Gen. MacArthur's authority which he considers essential to control of Japan. And he brought out ~the fact that Britain, in behalf of Australia, was more anxious for the new control set-up than was Russia,

Garrison reported. that the board had settled 17,807 disputes invelving 12,300,000 employees prior to V-J day. In the same time more than 415,000 wage cases involving. 2.300.000 workers were pr Despite" the threat of steel and other strikes, the labor department predicted in a report that “the outlook for 1946 is for further economic expansion.”

\ Predicts Rising Exwlovment A. F. Hinrichs, acting commission~ er of the bureau of labor statistics, said that rising employment will be fed by increased consruction, private

Sumer durable goods. He estimated current tnemployment, including returned veterans and' those who will be looking for Jobs soon, at 3,500,000. He said unemployment next spring would not evenly approximate the Widely quoted figure of 8,000,000. Mr: Hinrichs said that thie most seripus deflationary influence has been the reduction in wartime takehome pay of the wage earners, but this was less drastic than antici‘pated and most of the shrinkage has occurred without producing a depression psychology.

Nearly Half Million Idle

Meanwhile nearly half a million American workers were idled by strikes and shutdowns today in the first peacetime New Year Since 1941. The steel panel was. thie second set up by Mr. Truman since he asked congress to give him statutory authority “to establish - such fact-finding boards in important labor controversies. The first, named to study the dispute between the OC. I. O. United Auto Workers and the strike-bound General Motors Corp., is expected to report on its findings by the end of the week. ; As in the G. M. case, the President hoped that public pressure would force the union and management to come together and re{solve - their difficulties for themselves.

Electric Strike Looms

Walter . P. Reuther, U. A. W.C. 1. O. vice president, said he would get in touch with General Motors executives tomorrow in an attenipt to arrange further collective bargaining on the union's demands for a 30 per cent wage increase. : Meanwhile, a strike of some 19,000 Western Electric employees in New York and New Jersey appeared certain to come off as scheduled Thursday following: a breakdown in conciliation proceedings. The strike, which may lead to a sympathy walkout of approximately 250,000 telephone workers across the nation, was called to press demands for a 30 per cent pay boost.
