10-POINT PLAN o SKS UNITY OF ® 1.5. COMMAND

New Commander Griffith Continues Fight on Gen. Bradley’s VA.’

By ROGER JOHNSON United Press Staff Correspondent SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 5.~Thou~ sands of American Legion national convention. delegates were on their way home today with their new national commander, Paul H. Griffith, Uniontown, Pa., empowered to seek a program for “full preparedness” including compulsory military training. The, 28th annual convention closed week-long sessions yesterday with a criticism of Gen. Omar Bradley, head of the veterans administration, and a statement favoring a four-month * period of military training in contrast to the war department’s recommendation for six months. The .10-point preparedness program also called for a unified command of the armed forces, keeping of atomic bomb secrets ‘and a full Investigation. of “excessive war profits.” Mr. Griffith, 49-year-old veteran of world wars IT and II, pledged he would carry on the policies of his predecessor, John Stelle of Illinois. VA Publicity Probe Asked He drew resounding applause with a parting shot at Gen. Bradley, asserting he would carry on the Legion's efforts to obtain repeal of the $175 and $200 a month ceiling over the “on-the-job” training of world war II veterans. The limitations were passed by congress during the final week of its session at Gen, Bradley's recommendation. Delegates voted a ‘special resolution that congress choosé a committee to investigate the veterans administration “vast publicity staff” which Stelle had charged was costing the taxpayers a million dollars a year. Two Indianapolis men were renamed to national offices executive meeting following convention, They are Neal Grider,

urer, and Ralph B. Gregg, a lawyer, national judge advocate, Two: Indianapolis women were among the auxiliary officers selected to serve with Mrs. Norton H. Pearl of Detroit, president. They are Mrs. Gwendolyn Wiggin MacDowell, secretary, and Mrs. Cecilia Wenz, treasurer, both re-elected. Hargrove Wins Reversal A bonus proposal that veterans receive a $50-a-month pension after reaching 50 years of age was voted down, despite spirited arguments for it from the floor. F. Marion (See Here, Private) Hargrove, best seller author, who fame here not as a delegate but to seek justice for the New York Legion post he commands, partly achieved his objective. The national executive committee reversed . its earlier decision to revoke the charter of Mr, Hargrove's Duncan-Paris post. The suspension, however, was ordered continued until Hargrove can appear before the committee at its next regular meeting in November. Mr. Hargrove, elated, said: “That's swell. That's all we wanted when we came to San Francisco.” Earlier he had denied his 273member - post was “Communist-

press reports. National Security Program Resolutions on atomic bomb and the war profits investigafion were separate from the 10-point general national security program, which called for: ONE: A system of universal military trdlhing without delay, limited to four months of basic training. TWO: A unified command for the army, navy and air forces. THREE: A peacetime regular army of a size consistent with minimum peacetime requirements, FOUR: Expansion of scientific research in nuclear energy and other technical fields. FIVE: Development of the merchant marine for commercial service and military use in case of War, SIX: A permanent American department of intelligence expanded enough to cover the world. SEVEN: Stockpiling of strategic materials difficult to obtain in times of emergency. EIGHT: A civilian defense program a8 “an integral part of the total defense policy" + NINE: Maintenance of “necessary bases consistent with our policy of national defense.” TEN: Expansion of “all phases of transportation.” Other national officers elected were Richard C.

FUND PLEA MADE FOR NOTRE DAME

Endowment.

Times State Service SOUTH BEND, Ind, Oct, 5—A plea for increased endowment funds was made today by the president of the University of Notre Dame “in order to further the school’s programs in science and engineering.” The Rev. Pr. John J. Cavanaugh, |C. 8. C, made the plea before the university's advisory council for science and engineering as he delivered his annual report to the group at the close of its annual meeting here. “Notre Dame,” Father Cavanaugh said, “has the smallest endowment of any large university in the country. It is pitifully small in comparison with other schools of similar size, and is even doubled and tripled by many small institutions.” Expansion Delayed

“Our problem then is frankly one {of attracting endowment,” he declared. The university president pointed out that the immediate engineering needs of the university included an engineering mechanics laboratory, a boiler research laboratory and a hydraulic laboratory at a total cost of between $50,000 and $60,000. The council which heard the report is composed of 14 of the nation's leading industrialists and in-| dustrial engineers. It was formed | last year to assure co-operation be-| tween Notre Dame and industry. Harold S. Vance, chairman of the board of Studebaker Corp., presided. Father Cavanaugh also pointed out that the university is planning a large scale laboratory to expand | important studies in germ-free! techniques which were. initiated at Notre Dame. He declared, however, {that he did not feel it a wise.finanlcial policy to expand and develop | without increasing the school's endowment.

And as she called Mark by name and held out her .arms to him, Ellen began to weep loudly and to thank God over and over at the top of her lungs, so that I was forced to lead her hastily from the room for fear the noise would disturb Charlotte. In a room across the hall, where I took her, Ellen told me the story of the fire. It had had a good start, she said, before she even realized that there was a fire. She had, of course, called the department at once, and Mark, who was spending the evening at Father Gene's. But Innisfail being such a distance form town, the harm was done before anyone could get there. The house was in flames. And Ellen could not get Charlottee to come down the stairs. » » . “WE WOULD have both perished, Celia,” she said, “because I could not leave here alone to die. But when Father Gene and Mark got there, Colin was with them, praise be to God.

Devil's Laughter

By Alice M. Laverick

Father Gene said, “I'm “taking you and Ellen and Mark over to the parish house until we see what's to be done. Come along now, Colin. We had better let Cecelia get on with her duties.” Colin said quickly, “Not yet.” And his dark eves were on me. “I'd like to talk to Cecelia for a minute, Father. Do you mind?” ~ » » “TO—Cecelia?” Father Gene stared at him and then at me. “Ah,” he said. And again, “Ah.” And, as he turned away, I saw the light of comprehension flash into the good man’s eyes, and the twinkle of delight. ~ Colin said, “Isn't there somewhere I can talk to you for just five minutes, Cecelia? Away from this eternal hurrying procession of angels of mercy?” I remember mentioning the diet kitchen as a possible retreat and we must have gone there, ” » ~ FOR MY next memory is of leaning against the sink in the kitchen with Colin's dark face close above me. And of How my heart seemed at one moment to have stopped beating entirely and the next to have taken wings. ‘For it was there that Colin told me. “It was the thought of you, Cecelia, that kept me steady,” he was saying. “And the hope that one day I might be free to tell you. But I could not speak until—what happened today—did happen.” » n ” I PUT my hands behind me and held onto the edge of the sink. “I've got a little house,” he said, smiling. I thought fleetingly of Innisfail and of how it had seemed the right setting for him. I tried to imagine him in a little house. “I don't need a very big house, { Cecelia,” he said. “I'm not a very {big man. I'm a working man.” He said it humbly, Colin PFitzgerald— humble. Oh no, not that, not that. “But I need you, Cecelia. I want you—very much.” » n ¥ I LET go of the.sink. I was crushed in his arms. He kissed me and continued to kiss me. before two delighted internes and an astonished boy with crutcheggfwho happened along. “Well, don't stand there staring,” he yelled, his dark eyes flashing. “Go along about your business!” n ~ - . AND I laughed with delight; as he took me in his arms. My black Irishman had not changed too much -not too much.

PRICES BOOSTED, _ ON CAFE MEATS

Poultry, Fish, Egg Dishes Also Going Up.

WASHINGTON; Oct. § (U. P.)~ Patrons of hamburger stands, steak houses and other restaurants had ample reason today to sigh and say that bad news comes in bunches. It wasn't enough that OPA authorized all restaurants, effective next Thursday, to raise the prices of meat dishes 15 per cent. But to top it off, OPA officials said prices of poultry, fish and egg dishes also are going up soon. And the restaurant industry, not entirely satisfied with increases granted by OPA, is going ahead with plans to petition for immediate decontrol of all restaurant prices. The meat price boost applies to all eating places. It covers all meals in which meat is the ma jor ingredient.

Hint of Other Raises On meat dishes selling above 20 cents, the increase will be rounded out to the nearest nickel.. On hamburger sandwiches and other meat items selling under 20 cents now, the increase will be rounded out to the nearest cent. OPA authorized the boost in a

retreat from its Sept. 17 order rolling back restaurant meat prices 10 per cent to June 30 levels. Faced with a rebellion by restaurants and opposition by many congressmen, OPA not only rolled back its own rollback but tacked on another 5 per cent increase as well. OPA said further price boosts on most non-meat dishes could be expected soon under a new formula which will allow restaurants to use their 1943 profit margins as the basis for computing ceilings.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 5 (U. P.).— The agriculture department today | urged the nation's farmers to produce 58 million pigs next spring as insurance against another meat shortage. ~ The spring goal is approximately 13 per cent larger than last spring's

but the department emphasized that the result would not be reflected in larger pork and lard supplies before the last three months of 1947, At the same time Senator James M. Mead (D. N. Y.) called for a congressional investigation to determine if present meat regulations were giving chain stores an advantage over small independent retailers, Pig support prices for the coming year were set at an average of $1425 a hundred, Chicago basis, compared with the present ‘ceiling of $16.25 and a support level of $13. The seasonal variation ranges from $12.75 in December to $15.75 in September.
