LOVETTS Furniture Upholstery SHOP Get our price list, rhone 7-7383 By HARRY SNYDER WASHINGTON. Feb. 18 Ralph E. Morton of Union City was a fast man this week with a plug for Ralph E.

Morton. He did it before a Senate committee that was inquiring into wildlife conservation practices. Morton qualified as a voluntary witness by identifying himself as the operator of "one of the largest duck shooting clubs in 'the entire country." He came to voice his opinion that stricter enforcement of federal game laws is needed in the interest of good sportsmanship. But he didn't hang back modestly when it came to describing the features of his Obion County layout or dipping into his personal experience for support of his arguments. And he wound up by inviting one of the Senators to help him drum up some business.

"I had people hunt from 29 states," he told Senator Leahy (D-RI). "I did not have any from Rhode Island, by the way. I would like to give you a folder before I leave here. You might send me some customers." Morton told the group he was surprised to learn that the Fish and Wildlife Service doesn't have the money for as many enforcement agents as it would like. "I did not know that you needed money." he said.

"I thought the government had lots of money. They talk about a million dollars for this and a million dollars for that and a million dollars for this and that." "It is billions," put in Senator Leahy, "and not millions." "Yes, I have learned something here today," Morton replied. Another Tennessean who appeared before the committee was Nash Buckingham of Memphis, chairman of the Waterfowl and Upland Game Committee of the Outdoor Writers' Association. He urged that more funds be you have a head for smartness and pro-shapod Reports Indicate (Continued from Page One) shortage cut further into the nation's economy. New York City prepared to dim a million oults on Broadway Sunday night.

On Monday, all New Yorkers will need a "certificate of necessity' buy coal. A brownout order for Chicago and the state of Illinois awaited Monday's developments. The Ford Motor Company said it probably will cut production unless the situation showed a major improvement over the week end. General Motors has cancelled all overtime schedules. New cutbacks in steel production took effect, and the lack of fuel forced layoffs of more workers.

Still another coal strike appeared imminent. Contract talks aimed at orestalling a strike of 8.000 Illinois Progressive Mine Workers (lnd) broke up Saturday without agreement. T1-; strike is set for Tuesday midnight. Meditators hoping to settle the Chrysler strike reported in Detroit Saturday that "things are moving, but slowly." Another session was set for Sunday. Hopes for ending the 25-day walkout appeared to rest on some agreement on the administration of $100 a month pensions.

But the mediators devoted most of their session to issues not related to the pension fund. They said it would take another day or two for the union to complete making its new demands almost 200 of them. The strike involved 89.000 workers directly, but more than 40,00 non-Chrysler employes were made idle by the walkout. The threat of two other widespread walkouts hovered over the nation. The CIO Telephone Workers Union announced that its members would walk out next Friday unless Bell System negotiators "get down to business" on the Union's demand for a 15-cent hourly pay raise.

And President Truman was informed by the National (Railway) Mediation Board that the Conductors' and Trainmen's Unions have set Feb. 27 for a nationwide strike against the railroad. This can be postponed for at least 60 days by presidential appointment of a factfinding board to study the dispute. Rep. Homer Thornberry, a Texas Democrat, was pleased with the news that William Badgett of Knoxville had entered the Congressional race in the second district.

They became acquainted during the war when they were assigned to the same office while serving as Naval Intelligence officers. If the Social Security Expansion Bill, passed by the House and now pending in the Senate, goes through "as is" the Tennessee legislature will be safe from a possibly awkward position. The present bill does not propose any change in laws dealing with unemployment compensation. And Senate Finance Committee aides say the agenda does not provide for testimony on that phase of the program. Hence, there is no prospect of the legislature's having to backtrack on its action last year in removing non-profit Institutions from participating in the unemployment compensation propram.

You may recall that the 1947 Assembly brought church-operated hospitals, churches and the like into the program and. as a result, it became an issue in the McCord-Browning gubernatorial campaign.

In Germany the West Berlin newspaper Der Abend reported that nearly 200 high Leningrad officials, some members of the political directorate of the Soviet army and seven some officials in the Ministry of State Security, had engaged in a plot against the Soviet government. There was no way of checking the story, which said that Marshal Leonid A. Govorov. defender of Leningrad, was involved The paper said fear that Stalin's expansionist policy was leading to war, and disillusionment at continued hard times were at the roots of the plot, now crushed. It was noted that the Soviet Union recently restored the death penalty for espionage and sabotage.

According to Der Abend the goal was to set up a separate republic at Leningrad. Britain's general election reached the some stretch. Prime Minister Attlee made the closing radio appeal for Labor before the 34,000,000 voters make their choice on Thursday.

Persons intimately familiar with the views of the two men said today the most important of these conditions are to show steel-nerve steadiness in dealing with the Kremlin, to tighten economic, military and political cooperation of the Western powers, and to get a kind of total cold war policy for the United States which Acheson believes this nation now lacks. Acheson himself is considering makig a major speech on foreign policy, and particularly Russian relations, within two or three weeks. It would expand his news conference statement of last week in which he outlined the policy of matching American power against Russian power where possible until world conditions are finally broughtt into balance.

One major consideration of the U. S. leaders is to avoid deliber-atly forcing the issue with Russia at this time on atomic energy or similar great questions. Their advisers feel that a Western peace mission to Moscow, for example would have a disastrous impact on an uneasy world if it failed, and they believe that at this time it would fail. In general this adds up to following a narrow course between the dangers of a shooting war on one hand and appeasement on the other.

Acheson's projected speech may disclose officially what some of his most responsible aids now believe: That the cold war is going to continue for a long time and that no one now can prophesy acurately whether it will end in an atomic conflict or in restoration of tranquility around the world. Administration policy makers meanwhile have displayed no intention of acting on suggestions from Winston Churchill and various U. S. Senators for some dramatic new attempt to make peace with the Russians. Under the world menace of the hydrogen bomb, however, the policy makers are prepared to argue that the United States and the West generally must take steps to wage the cold war more effectively.

Acheson is understood to have outlined this view to several persons with whom he has talked in recent days. It may be the main theme of his proposed speech to the nation. Shipment 5,000 Records The Nation CCNY 75, St. Josephs (Pa 59. Solumbia 74, Dartmouth 56.

High among these are adequate funds for the European Recovery Program, and substantial reductions in American tariffs even though individual business get hit in the process of opening U.

S. markets to foreign goods. Acheson is reported to have made it clear that in view the non-Communist world cannot work as a unit with full efficiency unless the United States in addition to preaching unity for the Europeans is willing to adjust its domestic as well as foreign policies to the economic, political and military requirements of the conflict with Russia. On the economic front some of the administration's best informed advisers say that by 1952, when the Marshall Plan is scheduled to end, the United States must increase its imports by about $3,000,000,000 and resign itself to a foreign aid program amounting to about $1,000,000,000 a year for an unpredictable length of time. The Truman administration, officials say, see such matters as part of a general policy which also includes a "point 4" program for economic development particularly in Asia, the further development of the North Atlantic Rearmament Program which is months behind schedule, and military aid to Southeast Asia and the Middle East in an effort to strengthen the non-Communist world against atack and build up new pressures against the Soviet Communistic bloc.

18 The president of the CIO Telephone Workers said here tonight that a nation-wide communications strike appears inevitable. Joseph A. Beirne. head of the Communications Workers of Amer ica (CIO), said no progress was! made in two weks of intensive bargaining with officials of American Telephone Telegraph Co. "Unless something unexpected occurs between now and Friday the union will have to strike," he said.

The CWA is seeking a 15-cent-an-hour package wage boost, shorter hours and other concessions. Beirne and other union officials arrived here today to attend the nation-wide convention of the CWA's Division 10. better known as the "Longlines Union."

Creasey said he had wired the company that "our negotiating committee is willing to meet with you at any time you are ready to make a serious proposal on wages and working conditions."
