Lauds State’ S Cabinet Officer Sawyer

Stand on Welfare Files

Editor Praises

Indiana Law Indiana has led the for other states to join the campaign against centralization of government in Washington, members of the Hoosier State Press Association ‘were told here yesterday. Basil Walters, executive editor of the Chicago Daily News, said

the recently passed Indiana law lifting the secrecy lid from Wel-

way

fare Department: records - has started similar movements in other states

“Indiana has taken an important step in the movement to bring more of th he government back to the states and end the increasing domination of the federal government over the peopfe,” "he said. “The only course against loss of our freedom to some form of dictatorship is to decentralize government.” TV vs. Newspapers Mr. Walters discussed at length the effects of television on the future of newspapers. “This new form of communication is stimulating more reader interest in newspapers . Creating a new hunger for informa-

safe

tion.” he said. “Television [is fercing a big change in newspapers toward

more interpretive writing and reporting and a higher quality of journali sm. “Readers see people and events on television and this stimulates their interest for more information and interpretations of the meanings of events. This will force newspapers to raise their quality of reporting and writing to meet new demands,” ‘the editor said Hold Panel Djscussions Panel discussions on the problems of newspaper operations in Indiana were conducted at today’s session, closing the convention with a luncheon meeting. Robert Kazmayer, Rochester, N. Y., was the principal speaker. More than 200 members of the Press Association attended the annual banquet last night at which E. W, Schergens, Tell City. presided.

Milk Firm Attacks Validity of Law

Suit has been brought by The Borden Co. against an Indiana statute prohibiting the sale of powdered skim milk in containers of less than 10 pounds. The company questioned the constitutionality of the statute in action filed yesterday in Marion County Superior Court, Room 2. Borden produces and sells onepound packages of powdered skim milk under the trade name “Starlac.” The packages have been on sale in Indiana during 1950 in belief the statute would be repealed by the 1951 General Assembly. » After the bill died in a House committee, however, Borden was ordered to discontinue sales from remove oné-pound packages from stores and warehouses. The dairy company now contends the law is invalid because it is not designed to protect public healt

~~ ‘Muscle Market’ Series Planned

Indiana and Illinois have been called the college coach's “happy hunting grounds” for polished prep athletes,

Chicago, probably, is the booming center for this “muscle market.” It's a profitable business, especially for the high school sports stars who make up the market.

There hasn't been too much written about this shopping market. That's why we believe you'll enjoy the series of articles on this “muscle market.” It starts in your SUNDAY TIMES tomorrow in the fast-growing, on-the-ball sports section.

Faces Contempt Count

Court Cites Official, Advisers in Dispute Over Dollar Steamship Line Transfer-

By United Press

WASHINGTON, Apr.

7—The District of Columbia Court of

Appeals appeared determined today to make the government re-

turn the Dollar Steamship Line to R. | _eisco—even if it means sending a cabinet officer and nine other

officials to jail.

Stanley Dollar of San Fran-

The court made cjear that it means business hy charging ( Com-

merce Secretary Charles Sawyer and his “advisers with contempt for failing to return the company to Dollar as ordered. Sawyer and his aids were told to appear in court next Thursday to answer the citations. The court also warned the government in no uncertain terms last night to take no legal action

that could prevent Dollar from|

taking over his property. The gov-

ernment has been operating the

company since 1938 as the American President Lines. Status Quo Maintained

The dual action left the Justice Department. free to proceed with a San Francisco suit in which the government in its own right seeks control of the Company.

All litigation up to now—including the court's contempt action has concerned officials as individuals. In the meantime, the court says the property belongs to Doilar. However, shortly after the contempt citations were issued, Federal District Judge George B. Harris in San Francisco issued a conflicting order in which he granted the government an injunction halting transfer of APL stock to Dollar. Judge Hagris' order thus maintained the status quo with the government still in control of tne stock pending the outcome of litigation in the ownersnip squabble. Others besides Mr. Sawyer who must answer contempt citations are Under Secretary of Commerce Philip B. Fleming; Solicitor General Philip B. Perlman; Peyton Ford, assistant to the attorney George L. Killion, American President Lines president; Paul D. Page, solicitor for the Federal Maritime Board; Philip H. Angell, San Francisco, special assistant to the attorney general, and Attorneys Edward H. Hickey, Newell A. Clapp and Donald B. Macguineas. Mr. Dollar watched all yesterday afternoon while Circuit Judges Bennett Champ Clark, E. Barrett Prettyman and Wilbur K. Miller engaged in a tug of war with government counsel here. The case now is in its fourth round through U. 8. courts, having reached the Supreme Court three times during the past five years.

Dffigial Tone In Slap at Doug

British Minister Hits ‘Irresponsible’ Talk

Ry United Press LONDON, Apr. 7—The British Labor government indirectly criticized Gen. Douglas MacArthur today for making “irresponsible statements” about Korea and the

Far East. : pi ® Minister of State Kenneth Younger--No. 1 deputy to Foreign Secretary Herbert Morrison took official eognizance of the mounting clamor in Britain against Gen. MacArthur in a speech before the Welsh National Council of ".abor at Cardiff. Left No Doubt Mr. Younger did not mention Gen. MacArthur by name. He referred rather to statements issued by “highly-placed quarters.” But he left no doubt that he was talking about the United Nations’ supreme commander in Korea. Mr. Younger said it is still pot too late té-hope for peace talks with the Chinese Reds and added pointedly: “Neither we nor they (the Chinese) should therefore be misled by such irresponsible statements as seem to come out at frequent intervals from highlyplaced quarters, without the authority of the United Nations, or indeed any member government.”

Calculated Statement His statement was a calculated one, expressing the views that British officials have been stating

privately for some time. It followed Mr. Morrison's own remark last Monday that this is the

“psychological time” for a major truce move toward China and obviously was cleared by the foreign office. Mr. Younger's speech came in the midst of a campaign led by a left-wing minority in the Labor government to force Gen. MaecArthur's dismissal as United Nations commander.

Dognappers Busy, Dog Lovers Angry

$25 Reward Offered

For Men So ‘Low’

Residents in the neighborhood of the 2000 block Churchman Ave. were on the alert for dognappers today.

But: Mrs. Selig, having arrived at home just after, the men left, immediately called police. Several

Korea Replacements Hurry, Wait for Planes

You just can't change the Army. It was hurry up and wait again last night . and in the new Army, too. Thirty-five Korea bound replacements sat in the Weir Cook Municipal Airport administration building for 13 hours and 20 minutes yesterday for the little plane that wasn’t there. The soldiers were from Co. F of the 516th Infantry Regiment of the 101st Airborne Division at Camp Breckinridge, Ky. They had been home for 15 days prior to overseas shipment.

Their orders told them to report at the airport here at 7 a. m. yesterday. Planes were to pick them up.. Two airlines had the charter order from the Army, Continental and New England.

The soldiers, due in Ft. Lawton, Wash., at midnight, reported as ordered. No one was in charge of the detail. All were privates wha just completed their 14 weeks basic training. Two planes from Continental got there several hours after they were due and picked up 35 of the men. The other 35 waited until after 8 o'clock last night. “We were mad at first,” said one of the GIs, "but then we started to look at it as a joke. The longer we waited the funnier it got.”

Colonel Got Busy

One of colonel at

About 10 of the men were from Indianapolis and several others | Even their families got tired of waiting around and had left by 8 p. m. last night after a full day of goodbyes “Sure hope they run the war a little smoother than this operation,” one of the lads commented as he stretched out for his third snooze on an airport bench.
