He dfclared the Post would have "more to say later about the founded and amazing charges of conspiracy made by Senator of Missouri," which, Thackery said, i were made "under the nf the of final immunity granted to i him by virtue of the fart that lie made those statements on the of the Senate where he could not be held legally accountable ior them." The only conspiracy to which the Post has been a party is a conspiracy to t.rrive at the truth openly and publicly." Thackrey declared. "Senator Barkley and his colleagues, including Senators Clark. Wheelf and Nye, have chosen to render a verdict without letting the Senate hear the case." he said. Mrs. Dorothy S.

Plea to Publishers The program which he announced today also included a request that the publishers of this nation re frain from accepting advertisements which are designed to steal workers from employers engaged in essential war production" "In those cases," McNutt 'added, "where labor unions have an agree-ment with an employer to furnish workers, I urge that they observe the same priorities in furnishing workers that the United States Employment Service is requested to observe." McNutt emphasized that the program "cannot be entirely successful unless the people of this nation cooperate fully with their Government" snd that It also is desicned to aid "in focussing and eo-ordinnt-lng the various activities of Government aeencies."
