Hero! Sues Writer

Lt. Col. Frank E. Toscani (above) has brought a $225,000 suit against prize-winning novelist John Hershey and five others, claiming that Hershey patterned ‘ ‘Major Joppolo,” hero of “A Bell for Adano,” after Toscani’'s Italian experiences. He alleges that the author's portrayal has “held me up to public scorn and ridicule,”

TRUMAN LAUDS

Declares ‘Implementation’ Is U.S. Policy.

WASHINGTON, March 19 (U.P). | —President Truman said today the! United States supports the “fullest implementation” of the principles of the United Nations charter. He made the statement in a message transmitting to congress a report by Secretary of State James F. Byrnes on the first session of the United Nations Organization general assembly in London early this year. HE Mr, Truman said the United States “seeks to perfect tha charter as experience lights th2 way.” “To do less than our utmost in this essential effort of peace-lov-ing nations, whatever may be the obstacles and difficulties,” the President said, “would be a betrayal of | the trust of those who fought to win the opportunity to have a world | at last with peace and security, and | well-being for all.” I Factual Review

Mr. Byrnes’ report was a factual, statistical review of the accomplishments of the first meeting of the assembly. In a covering letter, however, Mr. Byrnes hailed the first meeting as “a constructive step on the long road to peace and all that peace can bring to man. Mr, Byrnes said new advances on this road to peace would depend upon the support given the United Nations Organization by the member governments and their peoples. “Their support should be forthcoming because their common interests far outweigh any conflict in interest that might divide them.” Mr. Byrnes réported to the dent that United Nationf is now! a going concern” as “a working | center of co-operation” for peace-| loving nations. He admitted that no nation was| fully content with everytnihg done | at the first meeting and that there! were “difficulties, differences and | sometimes irritations. , . .” Mr. Byrnes said, however, that all | the participants “seemed to feel! that substantial progress had been made toward orderly human relations and peace among nations.”

UNITED NATIONS

U.S. INVESTIGATING EXPORT OF NYLONS

~The civilian production administration began an investigation today to determine whether nylon stockings are being exported in great number to the lucrative Latin American smarket, A spokesnman for CPA's bureau of international supply said he “ddubted” a report that more than a million pair had been shipped to Mexico during the past two weeks, “We are going to check the report, however,” he said. “If that amount is being shipped abroad, it is completely out of line with what has happened before.”

CPA will seriously consider imnosition of export controls on hosfery if it finds that large amounts are leaving this country. The CPA spokesman said only nine-tenths of 1 per cent of the total production of nylons was shipped to all foreign countries in the last four months of 1945—a ‘otal of 354,000 pairs. Nylons were reported bringing as high as $50 a pair in Mexico. The OPA pointed out it has no way of controlling -prices of stockings or any other American-made product nld ahroad. .

WASHINGTON, March 19 (U.P.). |

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich, March 19 (U. P.).~Most Rev. Thomas L. Noa was consecrated as coadjutor bishop of Sioux City, Iowa, today in a solemn ceremonial attended by 1250 priests, lay leaders and prelates’ in St. Andrew's cathedral, The impressive two-hour-and-45~ minute ceremony was. climaxed when Consecrator Edward Cardinal Mooney of Detroit, assisted by Bishops Joseph H. Ambers, Lansing, Mich., and Charles D. White, Spokane, Wash. simultaneously imposed their hands on the head of the new bishop and breathed the! prayer “receive the Holy Spirit.” Through this act, -according: to Catholic belief, is transmitted apostolic power, first imparted by Christ to St. Peter and perpetuated through the centuries by the “laying on of hands” by duly-consti-tuted bishops. Equally impressive was the anointment with holy oil of the entire head of the new bishop, the fingers and palms of his hands, the bestowal of the crozier of golden staff, and the placing of the

episcopal ring of the third finger of the new prelate’s right hand.

GITY'S GASOLINE CONTRACT FOUGHT

Two low bidding gasoline firms planned to voice protest to the works board tomorrow on the awarding-of a 1946 municipal fuel contract to a company whose bid was $3098 above the lowest offer, Upon the recommendation of Stanley Myers, municipal garage

.| superintendent, the board yesterday ‘approved a contract for

600,000 gallons of gasoline to the Troy Oil Co, On 336,000 gallons of regular gase oline to be purchased, the Troy company bid 12.1 cents a gallon; Crystal Flash Petroleum Corp, 11.49, and Associated Service .Co,, 11.75. The Troy bid on 264,000 gallons of high test fuel was 13.1 ‘cents a gallon; Crystal Flash, 12.09, and Ase sociated, 12.5 cents. Mr. Myers stated that. the better service offered by the Troy firm is more than worth the difference in price. “They deliver whenever we need it,” he said. However, officials from the two lower bidding firms discounted Mr, Myers’ statement insisting that their companies match Troy specie fications, “equally, if not better.” City Purchasing Agent Edward Q, Hereth said he would take no action

| “unless the Mayor calls me.”
