Military Supplies. Washington, April 24 A significant tug-of-war is going on back-stPSte among the Trumanites over fcr.nging another Wall Street banker into the official family. Center of the controversy is bald, delightful Bob Lovett. ex-assistant secretary of war for air, whom General Marshall wants to make undersecretary of state. But there is one drawback.

And Avercll Harriman, whose nremnn g'ven by Prime Minister Stalin for the top diplomats who had met in the Soviet capital for fix weeks and four days, told newsmen they should regard the conference as 'the first round." The ministers of the United States, Britain, France and Russia, who had been unable to reach agreement in 44 meetings since March 10 on any of the major issues in the writing of German and Austrian peace pacts, ended their wssion on a note of amity. ine Workers' Fine lomatic channels."

Golds-borough warned the miners union that an injunction forbidding a strike against the government "is still in force and can be invoked at any time." Neither the government nor UMW lawyers raised the subject today, and Goldsborough said he supposes it will be held "in abeyance" until Lewis' contract witti the government becomes obsolete on June 30.

And you would probably like for other people to know them. Through the past few months, the Clarion-Ledger Sunday Magazine has attempted to encourage the writing of short stories in Mississippi by the publication of one story weekly in the continuing short story contest. Several young writers have indicated that, after having their stories published in the Sunday Magazine, they would continue writing so the contest was successful. Now we'll ask for something different.

The Sunday Magazine is inviting its readers to send in factual stories or other facts not generally known, concerning Mississippi. There will be a modest reward for each one published. The only limitation is that that the one who submits the story or fact must be prepared to back up its authenticity, and that it must be about Mississippi persons or localities.
