Grand Central Palace was the big store of the draft, the plant in which "all'the different groups" as Eleanor the Great, with lefty objectivity, refers to the lower orders of the human race, were stripped to nakedness and, in this dignified condition, answered freedom's call. After some preliminary remarks Kayo's old sidekick in the no- rtundred and nothingth battalion of nothing, begins: This brings us to Danny Kaye and back to Dec. 31, 1943.

"I being a resident of east New York, adjoining Brownsville, (which is the old home grounds of the beloved, in a manner of speaking, 'kid from Brooklyn') was registered with Draft Board No. 229 (Danny Kaye's board).

As we sat in the auditorium and were being briefed oh what was to come, it was only natural the fellows were trying to pick Danny Kaye out.

Which they finally did. Although it wasn't a laughing Danny we saw. He gave no response to guys hollering out his name. He seemed very annoyed and just sal motionless. "Abo'ut three-quarters of the way through is when I next spotted him.

Possibly that is what his local board, No. 229, had in mind when it rejected unanimously a request from the U.

The board wrote: "Neither his physical 1 nor his mental condition or attitude tends to show that the morale of, the armed forces would be benefitted by his performance before them as a civilian."

The working grou, composed of American, Russian, Canadian and Guatemalan representatives on a U. N. Palestine subcommittee, scheduled a session at Lake Success late this afternoon to consider a change in the dates and to iron out minor points on proposed U. N. administration of the Holy Land.

An observer who attended last night's session of the four power Palestine working party said several suggestions had been made for changing the deadlines for termination of the British mandate and independence of the Arab and Jewish countries. One suggestion was that the independence date should be moved to May 1 and leave the Arab and Jewish countries to negotiate with the British oii withdrawal. General concensus was that this suggestion would be rejected as impracticable. The other suggestion was that Britain terminate her mandate Aug. 1, the date the British set as a withdrawal deadline, and that the independence of the two coun- tires be moved to Oct.

Russia was understood to oppose anv alteration of the May 1 and July 1 dates, while other members of the working group appeared to agree that some change was necessary because of the British statement that withdrawal could not be accomplished until Aug. 1.

But it will have rees, playgrounds and room for land where slums sprawled before, land, where slums sparwled before.

That is the new pattern Manhattan is growing into. which have plagued the life of Socialist P.remier Ramadier's coalition government ever since the Communists left the cabinet. The government promulgated a decree, approved by thq cabinet yesterday, providing for punishment of civil employes guilty of laxity in handling the recent rioting in Marseille, the nation's second largest city. Two companies Republican security guards were ordered disbanded immediately and their members dismissed without indemnity. Marseille itself was calm this morning.

Mayor Michel Carlini appealed to the population to maintain order and to striking workers to return to their jobs. The Communist political bureau, in its calred: The communique today, de- Communist party assures school football playoffs as expected last night, and the bracket ior the title scra.mble in that division will be completed today with the selection of three other' teams. The Arkansas Athletic Association will select either Little Rock or North Little Rock as champion and playoff representative of tht Fifth District and probably will invite the other to till one of two byes in the double a bracket. Another team is to be picked for the other bye spot. Little Rock, the 1946 stale champion, and the Norlhsiders are the only AA teams in District Five and will not play each other until Thanksgiving, while the playoffs will begin next weekend.

Therefore, the AAA will pick a titalist on the basis of their showing against common foes. If Little Rock beats Pine Bluff two will have identical season records of eight victries and a tie. The absence of AA competitors in districts Two and Six makes possible the invitation, of two teams tailing to annex district crowns. Here are the unofficial first- round pairings for the AA playoffs (district indicated in parentheses where team is champion): Little Rock or North Little Rock (5) vs invited team. Fayetteville (1) vs.

Subiaco (4). Invited team (probably Little Rock or North Little Rock) vs Blytheville(3). El Dorado (7) vs. Pine Bluff (8). El Dorado, which tied both Little Rock and North Little Rock in non- district play this season, grabbed the Seventh District championship last night by trimming Texarkana, 14 to 2.

The oddity of the anti- whispering campaign is that it made the news the same day that Syracuse's Lew Andreas, usually a very conservative guy, was quoted as urging alumni to set up a few scholarships for studious atnletcs in order to meet competition in Syracuse's own non-Ivy circles.

H. Washburn-- Price Control Isn't the Road to U. S. Security As this column is being written we don't yet have the actual text of the message President Tru nwi is to deliver at the special seWsion of congress opening in Washington today. But so-called informed adminis tration sources were quoted in the press this morning as being of the opinion" Truman would ask for restoration! of price controls and wage ceilings as a last resort to halt the inflationary spiral which is carrying the cost of living ever higher.

Such a 'move would sg'em- to this writer to be a mistake. Not be we aren't of the of the situation, but be cause the way we look' 'at it the situation is so bad -ho 'there federa law on prices and wages is going to mend the black mar ket pretty well exploded that notion as soon as the' 1 war ended. And now there is infinitely less chance for enforcement of bread- and-butter laws than there was when the reality of war remained with us. criticism of free government always has been that there is an inherent tendency to make it constantly more complex instead of adopting simple remedies until it finally gets so complicated and top-heavy that it threatens to fall cf its own weight. is something every citizen instinctively recognizes but which pressure groups ignore and politicians are afraid to correct.

Mr. Truman in this critical hour may very well be writing the future of the Democratic party in 1948 for the temper of the Amer- people in the past -bears out the conclusion that rather than support a policy of correcting bad laws by passing new ones they will demand simplification by repeal, and will beat any political party that denies this. The trouble with postwar America, more than two years after fighting has ended, is that every organized group in the nation, whether of labor or of capital, is still demanding in peacetime those scores of Allied ships, particularly oil tankers, cost the nation about $146,000,000 to construct. Texas Eastern Transmission, a newly organized firm, will pay the government $143,127,000 for the. pipelines in the largest surplus war assets sale to private ownership on record.

Although Uncle Sam is divesting himself of the valuable wartime reserve facility and can be reclaimed for certain periods if necessary for national defense. The purchaser also is required to operate the lines in a manner to permit their reconversion to oil in the vent of war. The southern end of the Inch ines now is dipped in the natual gas fields of Texas, Arkansas, Lousiana and Mississippi.

Big Inch and Little Inch were declared surplus Dropcrty in April, 1946 and in the winter or 1946-47 were first used to transport natur' al gas when leased by the Tennessee Gas Transmision Co.

LaMarre, president of Aviation Electric Company, testified today that although his salary in 1941 was carried on the company's books at about $31,000, approximately $28,000 of this sum was paid to Maj. Gen.

Bennett E. Meyers. He had told the Senate War Investigating committee earlier that Meyers put up all the money to organize the firm which received over a million dollars in war business. LaMarre, who had testified Meyrs took him from a $35 a week ab and installed him as head of 'company, undertook to explain IG complicated bookkeeping ar- angement on salary, but Senator erguson (R-Mich) took over and jmmed it up this way: instructed you to pay 10 salary 'out to yourself, pay the ncome tax and then give the rest the money to him." The witness assented. William Rogers, committee cqun- el, then explained that LaMarre 6t $3,000 as his pay.

Testimony on the company's ar business was received last eek. Lawrence D. Bell, president tlie Bell Aircraft said he ent $1,053,000 worth of subcon- racts Aviation Electric at Weycrs' suggestion it could handle business. LaMarre said Aviation Electric said a total of $58,000 to Meyers 1941. It was able to do this, he said, jecause it boosted the price of one if its units of electrical equipment rom $11 to $44.58 on instructions rom Meyers.

Meyers, now retired from the army, was deputy chief of ai procurement (purchasing) during the war. The Senate committee is inquiring nto his activities in that post. Individual senators have noted publicly daring the hearings that statutes provide penalties up to two years imprisonment for government purchasing officers convicted of with firms in which they have a financial interest. said he removed Meyers' name from the articles of incorporation at Meyers' direction.

During the first six months of 1917, Pan American -carried paying pasengers an average of yO miles eacn. on its Latin Atlantic, Pacific and Alaska divisions.

That was three out of every four pasengers flown by ill U. S. international air lines, was more than half the total ol passengers handled by all international lines, domestic and serving our shores. During those six months, Pan American's more than 200 planes, most of them four-motored and many capable of carrying more than 50 passengers at a speed of 3UO miles an hour, were scheduled for almost 29 million miles of flight.

All face a possible death penalty if found guilty. Today's arraignment lasted only a half hour, with the defendants tensely following -each word.

When the indictment was filed last August Brig. gen.

"The background of the crimes may be traced through a period of over 100 years of German militarism and 133 years embracing four generations of Krupp armament making," the indictment read.
