BYRNES SAYS GOODBYE The White House announced the swearing-in ceremony as Byrnes, his desk cleared and his brief case packed, opened the great, wine-red doors of his office and received scores of State Department men and who shook his hand and wished him well.

The privately expressed conviction of his close associates is that Byrnes is saying farewell to the! State Department but not perma-1 nently to Washington.

Wr Republicans bent on whittling down President Truman's $37,500,000300 budget disclosed today they will call upon the Army and Navy for a showing of money savings in the plan for unification of the armed forces. Brushing aside arguments by some Republicans and Democrats that the $11,587,000,000 outlay for national defense in fiscal 1948 should not be touched, Chairman Taber (R, N.Y.) of the House Appropriations Committee declared to reporters: "There is going td be a thorough overhauling of Army and Navy spending estimates. We are going to ask what for and why on each item. Thev are going to show us where we can save. If they dont we will show them."

Thompson, former educator and doctor of phlisophy, took his oath of office at 10:50 a.m. in the almost deserted Senate chamber. Immediately afterward, Arnall announced that his conditional resignation, filed previously with the Secretary of State, had become effective.

Asked at a press conference if he could evict the rival governor.

Thompson replied: "Just yet I don't have a strong military at my back, but I shall follow-up my demand. Thompson said that until he is granted access to the executive offices, he will occupy offices of the Senate president, just off the Senate chamber. There was no indication Talmadge will attempt to eject Thompson. ORDERS PROSECUTION Thompson said his first official act was to direct the attorney geperal to continue suit to enjoin Talmadge from exercising authority as governor.

Both men are pledged to the "white supremacy" program of the late Eugene Talmadge, which was adopted as the platform of the Georgia Democratic party in convention last October. This includes restoration of Georgia's Democratic "white primary," perpetuation of Georgia's unique county-unit system of voting, and expansion of state services. Assistant Attorney General Dan Duke, who won national recognition as prosecutor of the Ku Klux Klan and the Columbians, declared: "If Talmadge should ignore an adverse decision of the courts, there will be bloodshed in Georgia." Public expression meanwhile took the'form of antiVTalmadge meetings and resolutions Vn various parts of the state.

The latest victim to be identified was Mrs. Madonna Quinlivan, 50, of Los Angeles. Railroad officials said she was identified by her husband, William, a Southern Pacific elec trician, who has been assigned to the Los Angeles Union Passenger Terminal.

The two victims whose identity still is not known are a white woman about 30 years of age and a Negro man, about 30, who may have been a sailor. Recognition of the dead was dif ficult because of the extent to which they were mutilated and the wreckage of the cars which overturned 12 miles north of Bakers field Railroad officials said hearings will be conducted ih Bakersfield next week by W.

There appeared to be little difference-, between AFL and CIO viewpoints.

The AFL survey interpreted the Nathan report as- advocating a 25 per cent pay-raise pattern for uniform adoption. However, Nathan's report said "the profit and wage picture must be considered separately in each wage negotiation. "Last year." the AFL publication said, "the CIO claimed that industry could pay a 24-30 per cent wage increase without raising prices. Their efforts resulted in an 18-cent wage formula and a living cost rise of equal amount. "They have learned nothing from this experience.

this year they are making the same kind of claim." The "survey" said the Nathan report "would reduce profits to the low level of 1936-39 when 8,500,000 were unemployed arid industry was not earning enough for the normal new- plant and which expands production and raises living standards."

Mrs. Phoebe M. Short, 46. could only tell of the "good little girl" she had known, as Elizabeth (Betty) Short who wrote letters home, visited her motherf re-quently and talked like "any normal girl." Although she could throw no light on the murder of her daughter, Mrs. Short declared after-her arrival-that she intended to "see that the fiend who killed my little girl is caught."

The AFL today struck out sharply at the CIO's Nathan wage policy report and said it has "nothing whatever to do with the realities of industrial operations." The AFL publication "Labor's Monthly; Survey said the report made by Robert R. Nathan for the CIO, called for a 25 per cent wage increase; and commented: deceive workers by leading them to believe they should receive such a general increase is a most irresponsible policy." It was the second-time this week the. AFL has hit at CIO policies. AFL- -President William Green Tuesday! criticized -the CIO suits for. "portal-to-portal pay claims.
