747 area. His view is that the troops should we remain there until stability and order are assured, and that the United Nations security council—on which poth the United States and Britain have a veto—should be the body to decide when withdrawal is safe. In the last analysis this policy would allow the United States and Britain to be the final judge on withdrawal of their troops from Trieste. Mr. Byrnes has long feared a Trieste settlement unfavorable to

lp Industrial Armistice?

Favor Strike Truce, But Doubt Adoption

By Scripps-Howard Newspapers WASHINGTON, Nov. 13.—Everyone seems to agree that the Basil Manly plan for a labor-management armistice during all of next year would be a fine thing for the country, but there is doubt whether it can be brought about volun-

Trust Co. amounting “several hundred dollars.” J. Albert Smith, a vice president of the bank, was called to the witness stand to discuss the transac-

tion. His testimony was halted by

night over a Columbia Broadcasting network with Mr. Manly taking part. Harvey W. Brown, president of the International Association of Machinists, said American labor had worked under a “strait jacket” during the war, and he didn't think labor would consent to another one. Mr. Brown also expressed the opinion that an armistice on strikes and other troubles could be made effective only if the government enforced it. Edgar L. Warren, director of the U. 8. conciliation service, took . the view that “industrial peace cannot be established by edict from Washington.” Mr, Warren drew an ominous picture of what the country faces in threatened industrial conflicts. He said conciliators are now mediating more than 800 threatened strikes, and that “the coal contract is being discussed. So are contracts for Chrysler, meat packing, and the Midwestern trucking industry. And steel is just around the corner.” Mr. Manly, former chairman of the federal power commission and co-chairman with William Howard

world war I, made this statement: “The American people served notice on election day that they have had enough of the industrial warfare that is rapidly wrecking our national economy. “I am therefore proposing that organized labor and industrial management by voluntary agreement enter into a truce that will insure full production during 1947 and afford an opportunity for working out a more permanent ba-

sis for industrial peace and prosperity. “This is the only way to restore normal price levels and maintain the purchasing power of the people. This can be achieved through contracts, industry by industry, which management and labor alike agree that for one year ‘all issues which can not be settled promptly by conference shall be submitted to arbitration, “This does not mean wages would be frozen at present levels. On the contrary, labor should demand and management should concede, as a condition of = the wages should be readjusted to conform with increases in living costs since 1941. “I. am not proposing a national industrial ‘strait-jacket’ but rather that by a concerted movement the normal processes of collective bargaining be utilized to give the nation 12 months of industrial peace. “With a full flood of production in which supply steadily gains on Heater, whom he quoted as saying demand, real wages will be im- that “I am being forced to pay proved far more than through the too much tax.” present illusory process of seeking| by strikes to catch up with the] Taft of the war labor board of|latest scarcity-caused advances in order, asserting: prices. ?

Results of the investigation of Heater’s affairs will be presented to Mr. Caughran, who will decide whether the evidence warrants grand jury consideration.

Exonerpted in Liquor Case The grand jury which last September returned the indictment against Allen on the tax charges held that Heater was not involved. However, whether he avoided payment of income taxes was not considered at that time, the U. 8. dis-

Allen added that his former employer told him to “take $60 a day from the tavern receipts and put it away.” Gross receipts of the tavern were set by Allen at more than $200,000 annually, Allen, who lives at 1512 N. New Jersey st., described how he was employed as a bartender by Heater in 1939, later becoming manager before leaving in 1945. Relations between owner and

manager later, became strained, yesterday’s testimony indicated. Allen ascribed this to “failure of Heater

to keep his promise to me that I could have money to open a tavern of my own.” : Allen admitted he had threatened Heater with exposure, if the promise was not kept. “I told him I would tell the government about his tax evasions,” Allen testified. “I also told him I was in it far enough and that if I could send him to jail I would, even though I probably would go, too.” Heater also is president of the Rent-A-Car, Inc, 39 Kentucky ave. He lives at 3740 N. Chester ave. The trial against Allen was continued to allow his attorneys to file additional arguments,

memorials to veterans of world war IL Mr. Schenck defended the cooperative principal in a large portion of his speech, pointing out that agricultural marketing and purchasing co-operatives have recently come under attack. “There is no type of business activity in America which so soundly carries out the philosophies of representative democracy which have made America great, as have our co-operative endeavors,” he said. Theme for the ‘ convention is “Year of Decision” as farmers, now enjoying the best income in recent years, weighed the future. “The small amount of money Indiana is spending on public, health service is a disgrace,” the governor sald in his speech. He that only three other states nd less. He urged expenditures of additional sums to improve state institutions, primarily those for mental illness. He pointed out that the need for rural recreation must be met by expenditure of more state funds which he said would have to come from an increase in taxation, probably in the luxury classes. Lauded for War Work

He praised the growers for their wartime ‘contributions: and said their increase of farm production by 40 per cent in answer to the federal plea for 35 per cent gain, “was the greatest compliment ‘ever paid to Hoosier farmers.” Scheduled for this afternoon were addresses by Donald Kirkpatrick, general counsel of the American Farm bureau; Jack Rosebrough, controller of the Hoosier Farm Bureau Life Insurance Co., and J. E. Stanford, secretary of the Kentucky Farm Bureau federation.

specified that Mr. Rogge could make public ‘any evidence he found on a three-month trip to Germany where he interrogated the Nazi leaders, particularly Herman Goering. “Before I left I told him I felt I should be free to make public any facts I would find,” Mr. Rogge said. “Clark sald I could make any facts I found public.” Mr. Rogge said he was a little surprised at Senator Wheeler's violent reaction to the report which the investigator made on his return from Germany. Lot of ‘Heat’ Put On There was little in the report, Mr. Rogge said, to incriminate Mr. Wheeler and not. much against Mr. Lewis, but apparently a lot of pressure developed from somewhere. “I don't know whether they went to see President Truman or who, but I do know there was a lot of heat.” : Referring to Mr. Lewis as a potential dictator, Mr. Rogge said he based that conclusion on the leadership stature of the United Mine Workers’ chief, evidence he found in Germany and “the fact the man has the energy and guts to do it.” Mr. Rogge said that he was at a loss to understand why the justice department has not sent teams of trained investigators to study the files and records of the German government and make a full report to the American people. Historic Opportunity Never before in history has there been such an opportunity to tell the whole story, he said. “Obviously I couldn't doit In three months, although I got wonderful co-operation from occupation authorities.” Developing his “statement that fascism in America is growing, the attorney said: : “We tend to be blinded by fears of communism and do not see the menace of fascism which is also on our national doorstep.

Spokesmen outlining what - they believed would be a general industrial attitude said it would be impossible to determine on many fine points just what constituted same quo, Because it is a delicate matter of interpretation, the observers’ sald, it might endanger the entire; plan. Bickering over a question of] whether or not certain activities | violated the status quo might throw | the whole truce idea out of gear, giving new cause for dispute rather than holding old ones in abeyance. | Other parts of the plan, however, | met with unanimous approval.
