TEXAS TODAY: Front Page Stories Of 1946 Similar To Those in 1914 By JACK RUTLEDGE AMOclitcd Press Staff If you want to read the latest newi, just drop up to your attic and dig up some old papers printed back In 1B14 or 1910. Chances arc those old front pages will read surprisingly like those of today in many respects. Take this story from The Granger News; "The farmer In tho vicinity of Granger arc expcricncin" Considerable difficulty in cultivating their crops, owing to tho excessive rainfall and lack of equipment. Very little work has been clone in the fields. The paragraph, verbatim, camo from the May 14, 1914 issue.

The utory applies today, except 2 paragraph that says "oven livery teams are being tnkon to the fields to work." The current newsprint shortage (newsprint is the paper newspapers are printed on) Is causing many fi publisher to resort to unus-ial devices to keep your favorite period-, kal coming out on schedule. The shortage, of course, is caused by a strike. The majority of Texas papers arc curtailed in size. Many a normally hefty sheet is down to fc-'r and six- pages. Advertising is tor.cd out to enable papers to keep the public informed with news.

Some have shifted their styles, eliminating big headlines or decks which attraction but eat up space. Others have cut back on pictures and comics. Advertising space is rationed again, like during the war, Two or three papers dug up pink and green and orange paper, ami used that. One, apparently almost on tho ropei figuratively speaking, found paper at least 15 years old, judging by its condition. The edition came out looking like a paper from the bound and brittle and frayed at tho edges, But despite difficulties, they nil came out on ti And the situation seems to bo eauing.

Gen. Marshall Holds Credit In Whip Hand AP A'ciosjeatures George C. Marshall, President Truman's special envoy to the Chiang Kai-shek government Is seeking peace in lo heal the generation-old cleavage'between the Nationalists nnd the Chinese Reds and save the country from a resumption of civil wnr, The difficulties facing the onetime chief of staff of the American armies in this great task are mounting. Even' in the face of the worst need for peace and unity (hat they possibly have ever seen, (he opposing Chinese factions are thus far unable to compose their differences. During Ihe few months Marshall has been in China, he has kept wholesale civil war from south of the great wall and brought Nationalist and Red chieftains together to negotiate.

In few brief weeks away from China, after he seemingly had Heels and Nationalists on tho way to amalgamation, Marshall saw the work he started fall apart. Agreements -hastily put together were disregarded, and civil war came on a major scale in Manchuria and in tho Yangtze valley. General Marshall is credited with having" in his hands 'the strings Hint control the financial credits China hopes lo gel from (he United States, These appear lo be his most powerful tools for peace. Once lliese credits have been allowed to pass to Chinese control, a lessoning of Chinese respect for Marshall's efforts In their behalf need not be held surprising. The cleavage between Chinese Nationalist and Red is wide, deep and of long standing.

Whether Marshall can change the course of this tide of human strife con be answered only by events. Tojo to Assume Full War Responsibility TOKYO.

He added that the group would be authorized to negotiate" with the British government and with other foreign governments and to maintain contact with private organizations relative to the various matters arising out of the recommendations of the Anglo-American committee'of inquiry." The inquiry group, after a long study, recommended that 100,000 European Jews be permitted to emigrate to the Holy Land immediately. The president said it was his "earnest hope" that the Cabinet committee will be able to undertake its work at the "earliest possible moment." HOUSE (Continued from Page one) ondary boycotts; and provision for court suits against employers or. labor organizations violating collective bargaining contracts.

The chief executive coupled his veto with a renewed plea for his own emergency strike control plan, for a Senate-House study of the whole field of labor relations and for enactment of his long-stalemated domestic legislative program. "The fact that we are faced with an emergency which does justify the passage of temporary legislation does not, in my opinion, justify us in adoption of permanent legislation without the study that such permanent legislation needs," he declared. The message went to -a Congress torn by controversy between groups for and against tightening controls over labor. HOUSE FACES DECISION The House, which passed the Case bill 230 to thnn the two thirds majority necessary to override a a quick decision on that question. Failure to override there would kill the bill.

But if the House reverses the President by the necessary margin, the veto then would go tn the Senate, where again a two-thirds majority would be required. The Senate vole on passage was 49 to 29,. less than two- thirds, Mr, Truman was under virtually unprecedented pressure from labor, industry groups and Congress itself during his consideration ot (he bill. But the President said he tried (o reach his decision objectively, "free from the emotional strains of the times, and free from every consideration except; the welfare of nur nation and of the world which is so dependent upon our recovery to full, peacetime economy."

The nomination of Clark is one of 36 officers of general rank whose confirmation has been held up several months because of the request of the 36th veterans to protest the elevation of the former commander of American forces in Italy.

Clark now is stationed in Europe with the temporary rank of a full general. His permanent rank is brigadier general. "In my estimation," said Amsworth, "a good yard slick for measuring the bigness of a man would be on the way that he treats his juniors and i's respected by his juniors and 1 still have my first lime to have any junior officer or enlisted man in the 36th Division say a kind word about Mark Clark." 'SUPPRESSED NEWS' "He suppressed news of the achievements of the division, gave it no credit whatsoever at the time, the operations were going on, and in every way that I know possible, showed his contempt and lack of confidence in the National Guard. "He arbitrarily relieved three colonels and gave no reason for it, and I understand it was over the protest of the division commander, As far as I can interpret his actions, he had a policy of relieving a National Guard man -who had attained the grade of Lieutenant Colonel or higher, regardless of knowledge and proven ability." Ainsworth read to the committee excerpts from a resolution adopted by the 36th Division Association concerning the Rapido River which cost the division 2,900 casualties.
