The official change was at a. m. this morning, which means that, at that moment, the time arbitrarily changed from 2 to 1 o'clock.

The public was to adjust its timepieces accordingly. Activities are to continue on the usual schedule.

Turning them back marks the end of three years and eight months of "fast" time.

Congress ordered the 60-minute advance into effect January 20, 1942, to add another daylight hour for war production. Other purposes were to save power, light and fuel. Return to standard time gives most of the nation an extra hour of sleep but for those on the job during the night such as transportation workers, it means an added hour of work In many cases. Government labor officals said this could cause some headaches over possible claims for overtime pay, but there was no indication there would be any general federal ruling on the matter. As for any longer-range effect on payrolls and employment, officials said they expected none.

In some instances, the time shift will give early morning trains, buses and airplanes an hour to kill. To put schedules in kilter, some railroad lines planned to delay departures, while others with passengers en 'route at 2 a. planned to check speed to use up the hour. The passing of war time apparently has almost universal approval. Both the House and Senate passed the resolution unanimously.

Farmers never did like it because it meant daylight came later and the morning chores had to be postponed until the cows and chickens were up and Glad to get home and proclaiming It and themselves to the camera, U.

(U.R) President Truman tonight made public a report on the con dition of Jews in Germany and Austria which charged that American military government forces "appear to be treating the Jews as the Nazis treated them." Simultaneously, he released a let ter to Gen. Dwight Eisenhower or dering him to "clean up" the reported conditions and to turn Germans out of their homes, if necessary, to get the Jewish survivors of Nazism out of filthy concentration camps.

The letter and the report revealed that Mr. Truman has appealed to British Prime Minister Clement Attlee to open up Palestine for' the emigration of the remaining estimated 100,000 Jews in Germany and Austria. LETTER SENT ATTLEE The White House said the Presi dent's letter to Attlee would be re leased as soon as an answer is re ceived. Reports from London indicated that the British government will reject the American request and suggest the United Nations organization cope with the Palestine-Jewish problem. The startling disclosures including a damning Indictment of Allied handling of the estimated 100,000 Jews who survived the Nazis were made In a report by Earl G.

Harrison who was sent to Europe by the President on a special mission to investigate the conditions of displaced persons especially the Jews. The Harrison report was a recital of horrid conditions under which Germany's Jews have been subjected ever since "liberation." They are still confined to concentration Camps including the notorious Berger Belsen camp and according to Harrison are still treated much as they were under the Germans. Harrison said that the Germans, by comparison, are better fed, better clothed and better housed than (Continued on Page 12; CoL 4) Allied Group Will Make Nips Toe Line Byrnes Announces Meet Be Held In U. S. LONDON, Sept.

29. (P) U. S. Secretary of State Byrnes tonight announced the formation of an Allied commission in the Pacific to formulate policies for carrying out Japanese surrender terms. The commission, agreed to by Great Britain, Russia and China, will meet in Washington "in the near future." Byrnes' announcement came at the time that American representatives were disclosed to be attempting to break deadlock in the five-power Council of Foreign Ministers through a proposal for a conference of all active belligerents against the Axis to discuss drafts oi peace treaties with Romania, Hungary and Bulgaria.

In announcing the Pacific commission, Byrnes said he received from British Foreign Minister Ernest Bevln the consent of the British government to the American proposal, made August 22. France, the Philippines, Australia, New Zealand. Canada and The Netherlands will be invited to Join the commission on Japan, Byrnes said. He reported Bevln, in agreeing to the proposal, had asked that India be Invited to become a member.

"It took them five years to conquer the soldiers, but a German woman can be had for chocolate and throws herself away, tramples on honor." The placard then threatened: "Oh God, If it depends on us, you will pay for it." A military government source said some "decapitation wires" had been strung across roads near Nuernberg and that Third army communication wires were cut at other points in the occupation zone.

S. ELEVATOR STRIKE OFF The nationwide labor disputes picture had a brightening tone yes terdav (Saturday) although there was still trouble aplently. A strike of 15,000 building employes which affected more people than any other stoppage in the country, 1,500,000 in New York City, was ended by compliance of both sides with Gov. Thomas E. Dewey's request for arbitration.

The strikers' AFL. union ordered them back to work immediately. Ending of this and several smaller disputes dropped the national total of those away from work in labor disputes to approximately 397,000, from a post-war high of more than 420,000. Another 38,000 idle In a 20-day strike of Westinghouse Electric "white collar" workers at Pittsburgh, and in five other eastern states may return to work next week on recommendation of their union officials who said the company had agreed, if they do so, to resume negotiations within 24 hours on wages, hours and working conditions.

VP) General MacArthur, stripping the mystery from Japan's throne, abolished today the powers the Imperial government had invoked a few hours earlier In suppressing publication of the emperor's pictures and interviews. The Japanese home ministry had seized all copies of five Tokyo and Osaka newspapers and suspended the papers. Its excuse was that the stories, in which the emperor had expressed to American correspondents hi hopes for a more democratic Japan, were "too awesome and would have a bad effect on the Japanese Deo-pie." WOULD SUPPRESS VISIT MacArthur's press headquarters, however, bluntly declared that th-Japanese government actually suspended the papers "for publishing accounts of the emperor's call on MacArthur," a humble and unprecedented visit which many Japanese felt had caused their emperor to lose much face. censor told the newspapers to resume publication and to go ahead and distribute the "forbidden" editions, which prominently displayed the interviews alongside a picture of the emperor and the Supreme Allied commander, and to continue publication. The papers affected were Asahi, Mainichl and Yomlurl Hochl of Tokyo and Asahi and.

Mainichl of Osaka. MacArthur's order was the strongest he had issued since the occupation began. It cut off the Japanese government from any control of newspapers, radios, the mails, telephones, telegraph lines and cables. He also forbade retaliation against the Japanese press, directly or indirectly. Press headquarters said the latest move completed a program designed to encourage freedom of the press and radio in Japan, and to rid the people of the Jingoistic propaganda on which they have been fed since before the war.

EMPEROR'S MONEY WATCHED At the same time, MacArthur'e chief economic aide declared that the assets of the imperial household would come under "increasingly close scrutiny," something else new in the life of Japan's emperors. "We will be very curious about the Imperial assets," said Col. Raymond Kramer, head of the economic and scientific section which is digging into all financial resources of the empire, public and private. The wealth of the great houses of Japan contrasted with the prospect of actual starvation among the nation's millions, which Kramer declared was "very real" in the oncoming bitter months of winter. MILLION'S DEMOBILIZED TOKYO, Sept.

Textile Charges Be $1.08 On Every 100 Payroll Dollars COLUMBIA, Sept. 29 VP) Casualty insurance companies to day filled with state Insurance Com missioner D.

D. Murphy a request for a 215 per cent increase in overall casualty insurance rates in South Carolina. A separate request called for a 52.5 per cent increase in rates for the textile industry. The rates are on policies for workmen's compensation insurance under state laws administered by the South Carolina Industrial commission. The carriers told Murphy the request was based on 61.7 per cent incurred losses on total premium receipts.

They said losses in the textile field were 90.4 per cent. Both figures were for the 1942-43 period. Should the textile increase be granted, the rate would be approximately $1.08 per $100 payroll dollars, a recent insurance commission hearing was told by insurance representatives. Textile men at the hearing said the state's rate already was higher than for any other southern state. Last year the insurers requested a 16.3 per cent overall rate increase, which Murphy turned down.

Legislative efforts in 1945 to revise workmen's compensation laws and reduce the size of the administering industrial commission, went without success. Advertisers Will Increase Budgets NEW YORK, Sept. 29 Plans to increase tneir 1946 national advertising expenditures over the 1944 figure were disclosed today by 63 per cent of companies included in a survey Just completed by the Association of National Advertisers. Of the 152 A. N.

A. members participating, 73 per rent reported their advertising budgets tor 1946 would be higher than their 1940 ex penditures. Only five per cent said they planned to spend less in 1946 and half of these considered this re ductlon "only temporary," the as soclation said. Europe It ascribed the Kenerallv imoroved outlook chiefly to the sudden end of the war, saying that military procurement of food "will be very much smaller from now on than it has been for the last two years." MEAT SUPPLY GROWING Supplies of meats, canned fish canned fruits, fruit Juices, vegeta bles, turkey, chicken, canned milk and cream will be "materially larger" than in recent months and "much larger" than for the like pe riod last year, it said It is entirely likely that there win oe surplus stocks of eggs, pota toes and lower grades of beef, the department said. American civilians also were promised more butter, cheese, pork and veal, and a moderate improvement in the critical fats and oils supply.

But the sugar situation remains bleak. It may ease somewhat next spring "if the Cuban crop turns out well," but no real relief from the world-wide sugar shortage Is antici pated until Philippines sugar plantations get back into full production Civilian supplies of rice and dry beans and peas may be reduced somewhat from last year's supplies by substantial relief shipments, but should be adequate. The apple crop probably will be the lowest on record. Cereal products will continue nientuui. snarp cutbacks military requirements will make enough meat available to supply American civil lans this winter at an annual per capita rate of 140 pounds compared with a 126-pound annual rate in 1935-39.

Meat supplies also will be large enough to ship more than 1.000,000,000 pounds to Europe in 1945-46 "if financial arrangements can be made." RECORD NUMBER TURKEYS Ceiling prices of most classes of meat except lower grades of beef which may decline probably will continue at present levels through tne iirst part of 1946 Record supplies of turkey meat win oe made available to civilians for the coming holiday season, with production nearly double the prewar average and 20 per cent greater man in. 1944 Civilians will hove about as much canned fruit in 1945-46 as the 1935-39 average of 15 pounds per capita and more than two and one-half times as much canned fruit Juices per person as was consumed in the pre-war period.

Federal Works Aid For Port Proposed Cooper Believes Project Meets Provisions COLUMBIA, Sept. The possibility of Federal Works agency funds for conversion and expansion of the Charleston Port of Embarkation was advanced here today. Director Robert M.

"I don't see why the port development proposed by the State Ports authority wouldn't come In this classification."

Placards threatening reprisals against German women who fraternize with Americans are among the latest evidence of underground activity in Bavaria. Written in doggerell. placards were found on the Max Weber platz charging German girls were "selling themselves for cigarettes, sugar and chocolate."

Monday he will take it to Capitol Hill, where some tax leaders expect him to propose only moderate trimming on this basis: 1.

Repeal in 1946 of the 3 per cent "normal" tax on individuals, or an adjustment of exemptions under this tax so as to relieve the burden on families with small income. Outright repeal of the tax, successor to the old "victory" levy, would remove around 10,000,000 persons from the tax rolls completely. 2.
