THE'PARIS- NEWS, PARIS TEXAS TUESDAY AFTERNOON, MAY M4I enl'j Power Restricted lo a Plant Says Smith Congress Made No Seizure Provision For Retail Houses CHICAGO Counsel for Montgomery Ward and Company, fighting against federal counsel of the mammoth concern's Chicago properties, contended Tuesday Congress had made no provision for the seizure of retail stores or mail order houses. Resuming his plea before Federal Judge William H. Holly in a widely watched case involving a test of the President's power to take over plants listed as non-war facilities by their owners, Harold Smith, a Ward attorney, declared the Smith-Connally act limited such seizures to factories or mines producing materials needed for the war effort. Smith argued the law conferred seizure power upon the President but restricted such power to a plant, mine, or 'facility equipped for the manufacture, production or mining of any articles or materials which may be required for the war effort or may be useful in connection therewith. Smith continued his argument after Attorney General Francis Biddle outlined the Government's position Monday, holding that the war labor disputes act covered the Ward situation.

The Ward lawyer referred safeguards of private citizens and private property written into the constitution and added that they were designed to "protect the people from the power of ambitious executives." Smith harked back to Biddle statement that some of the subsidiaries manufactured farm equipment and fencing, and that one of Hummer Manu- actuting Company in Springfield, out carburetors, pro- pepors and gun mounts. He continued: fTThese properties are not in Chicago. They are not among those seized. There is no allegation that their operation was interrupted or that their continued operation is dependent upon operation of the Chicago properties. allegation with respect to properties outside Chicago are calculated to obscure the real issue and to bolster a defective case in an unlawful seizure.

They have no on the question of whether Ward's non-war properties are within section three of the act (war labor disputes act)." Arguments were ended at noon on Attorney General Francis Biddie's petition for au injunction to restrain Ward officials from interfering with federal operation of the larra's Chicago facilities taken over with the assistance of soldiers Wednesday night. Judge Holly said he would make his decision Monday. BRIEFS About Town Mrs. Lela. Woody, employed at the Royal Beauty Shop, is reported unimproved at her home, 67 E.

Jarnes Truslow Adams Finds A New Approach to History By JOHN SELBY AP Arts Editor SOUTHPORT, Conn. James Truslow Adams, one of the squires of this green and white Connecticut village, and one of the deans of American history, just has produced the first volume as Life magazine compares with the Atlantic Monthly.

When completed the four volumes of "The Album of American History'' will be a complement to written history, not a fabulous new technique. For Mr. Adams a new departure was essential. "You see." he says, adjusting his moderately portly tweed-clad figure to dimensions of a chair that just fits, "I had to develop a new approach. I've already written my say.

Reich Supports Marriage Bureaus Obvious Objective Big Army Population 20 Years Hence LISBON (fP) nationwide campaign has been opened in Germany to shuffle war-shattered families and encourage new marriages to keep the Reich's birthrate at a high level, Nazi newspapers available here reveal. Newly established municipal marriage brokerage bureaus, operating without fees, are trying to bring together the woman whose husband fell in battle and the soldier on furlough whose wife died in an air raid, and are encouraging unmarried women to choose mates from among disabled soldiers returned to civil life. The obvious objective is to speed up a natural process of readjustment that would lead normally alter the war to many new marriages and babies capable of carrying arms 20 years hence for the German homeland. According to Der Angriff of Berlin, Nazi labor front organ, not enough disabled soldiers have registered so far to provide husbands for all the women who have offered themselves as prospective brides. To overcome this reluctance, placards advertising the marriage bureaus have been posted in all military hospitals and lectures have been arranged in hospitals and convalescent camps explaining its aims.

Last year, according to published German figures, there were 025,906 marriages in Germany, "more than might have been expected under the In the same year to these statistics, 1,539,841 babies were an increase of four per cent above the 1942 figure. there.
