The broadcaster urged that Irgun and two similar resistance movements Haganah and the Stern Gang combine their forces to form the nucleus of the Army. He then requested all Palestine Jews to volunteer for service either with the pro- posed government or the under AP Wircphoto LEAVE 'PROMISED LAND' Jewish immig rants who arrived in Palestine illegally go up gangplank in Haifa to be transferred to deten tion camp on Cyprus Island under a British plan for diverting illegal refugees.

The Irgun broadcast declared an underground government was needed "to guide our constant war against" Great Britain and time. "No longer will we urge a war of retribution, but a constant war," it added.

Before the clandestine radio, heard in the Tel Aviv area, went on the air, five Jews were wounded in Haifa in a charge by policemen swinging batons when a mob attempted to break through barriers to the clcsely-guarded harbor area. See PALESTINE Page 2 By NED RUSSELL PARIS, Aug. 14 The Hungarian Foreign Minister, Janos Gyongyosi, asked the 21 victorious Allies at the Peace Conference today to undertake special international investigations of Hungary's territorial and minority problems, with Czechoslovakia and Romania. The former peasant spoke for 50 minutes and devoted a large part of his address to a sharp attack on Czechoslovakia's attitude toward the problem of the Hungarian minorities, part of which the Czechs want to send back to Hungary. The Hungarian's speech was couched in terms which many delegates thought were so arrogant as to endanger Hungary's chances of achieving some of its principal aims.

Jan Masaryk, Czechoslovak Foreign Minister, announced immediately after conclusion of the translations of the speech, that he would reply tomorrow morning at 10 a. m. to this "rather astonishment statement by an ex-enemy state."

Lars Otto -Vigeland, 21, of Tonsberg, Norway, has been missing from his dormitory since early Monday morning, and last night the college officials appealed to the police to help in the search for the student, whose nervous system may be cracking under the strain of his wartime activities and of his efforts to excel in his studies.

"No such drastic controls of labor have ever been enacted into law in any one of the 48 states of the Union," he said. "Even in the darkest days of labor's struggle for rightful recognition there was never an attempt to deny to any organization the right to place before its membership in printed form, or the records of elected public officials."

These two men, it was learned, saw the McGurk girl enter a drug store near the Colonial Casino shortly after 10 o'clock that Saturday night, in company of a young man.

Her male escort is reported by these witnesses to have gone out of hearing of th girl, made a purchase and then departed with her. She was later found strangled in a Carver cranberry bog.

In response to my query, Herb said he would have to name either Stan Musial "or Country Slaughter as his choice for the National League's best hitter. We oh the Red Sox really liked Slaughter this Spring, but Pennock finally leaned to Musial, because he beats out a lot more infield bounders than Country.

Whenever anybody talks about infield bingles it starts me thinking. That's one record I keep track of myself. It isn't difficult. I've made a total of five this season so far. In 1941, when I hit 406, I had just four all season.

I'll tell you one thing. If we come down to the last couple of weeks of this season and it means something toward deciding the batting championship, I'll start pushing a few bunts. Particularly if we are playing Cleveland, Detroit or some of those other clubs who use those screwy defenses. A lot Earlier in this piece I wanted to say something about Dave Ferriss. The first time I saw Dave throw a ball at Sarasota this Spring I wasn't too impressed with his stuff.

When I batted against him for the first time in an intra-squad game, Dave started changing my mind for me. My admiration for him has been growing ever since. If there are still any doubting Thomases left, tell them for me that Dave is a real pitcher during wartime or any time, and it couldn't happen to a nicer fellow. Let's wish hard that asthma has deserted him for good. copy RIG DT.

Only this morning Herb received a cable from his 21-year-old son, who is leaving Yokohama for return to this country and discharge. Young Pennock has been flying E-20s, which are great planes. Herb spent a long time on our bench before today's game, and I always enjoy talking with him. I was particularly interested in young Del Ennis. I only saw him briefly in the All-Star game.

Pennock says Ennis is going to be a real hitter because he starts swinging from the instant he leaves the bench for the plate.
