A new star'!” Scientist Burton was deadly serious. So sare. other scientists. They say it is quite possible that a sufficient number of atom explo- sions would ignite the nitrogen in the atmosphere and the entire sarth would be burned, just as other planets are today. e McKELLAR CONVERTED Another Oak luuge scientist, Charles D. Coryell, went to work on the family of Senator Kenneth McKellar of Tennessee. So also did Williami Pollard, a professor at the University of Tennessee, but now working in New York. McKellar, a powerful, energetic figure in the Senate, had not even wanted to appoint liberal young Senator Brien McMahon of Connecticut as chairman of the Atomic Bomb Study Committee, even though McMahon introduced the resolu- tion. And “when McKellar finally consented to go along with McMahon's appointment, he stacked the committee with reactionaries However, when Scientists Coryell and Pollard finished explaining the dangers of the A-bomb, the Ten- nessee Senator actually got down from his presiding officer's chair to make one of the most state: manlike speeches the Senate has heard on atom control. Another Senator who has seen how a cut-throat international race to get control of the atom might wreck all civilization is Republican Senator Alexander Smith of New Jersey. Bmith spent several weeks on a New Jersey spe botl educating and sounding out public opinion regardin bomb.

But what burnt up enlisted men was that the paperweights were then given to the brass hats. Not one enlisted man was able to get souvenir of the memorable surren- der occasion, though thousands of them had given their lives to help achieve it. | iy CAPITOL CHAFF Na explanation of why Gen. MacArthur’'s photo was omitted from the official exhibit of war leaders is that they sent a naval officer recruited from Hollywood to | Brisbane at $7 per diem to get the picture. It was explained to Mac- Arthur's headquarters that when all the photos were collected they would be presented to the nation at FDR's library at Hyde Park. The photographer waited a couple of weeks at $7 per day, but Mac- Arthur refused to pose. . . . That was why Mexican, French and British generals were included in the Navy's photo exhibit of war leaders, but not MacArthur . Gen. Clayton Bissell, Chief of Army Intelligence, now on a trip to South America. The State Depart- ment asked him to steéer clear of Argentina, because they didn't want it to appear we were sending them any distinguished visitors at a time when we frowned on their Fascist form of government. But Bissell ignored the request, went to Ar- gentina anyway. . Walter Win- chell, who starts his fifteenth con- secutive year on the air Dec. 2, | offered $1,000,000 in cash for a |120 per cent share in the ABC Network. He was not bluffing either. He had the cash in small bills in a strong box. . . . Eleanor Roosevelt was a guest of the Henry Wallaces during her recent Wash- ington visit. She was feted “off- the-record” by the female con- tingent of Washington correspond- ents. . . . Mrs. Truman still flatly refuses to hold regular press con- ferences, has all her announce- ments made by her secretary, Reathel Odlum, and Edith Helm, White House Social Adviser. The John Boettigers (she was Anna Roosevelt) came to Washington from Seattle the other day looking for new newspaper worlds to con- quer. He used to run the Seattle Post-Intelligencer. MERRY-GO-ROUND Truman took a long- step toward mending her with the ladies of the s by inviting them to a White supper. . However, a lot were left out were more . The dinner was delicious—turkey, sweet po- tatoes, three different kinds of ice cream . Mrs. Truman went ou! of her way to be informal. There was no head table, she just plunked herself down amceng several guests and started eating. . . . Dress at the dinn was optional. Mrs, Truman w long gown, her daughter Margaret a short one. Mar- paret was the most excited mem- ber of the party. “I am going to flunk an exam on account of you girls being here tonight,” she said “I was supposed to study. I'll send you my report card when it comes.” Mrs. Truman took her guests downstairs to the White House projection room after dinner to pre: House who miffed than ever. . . a show them a new picture, “Week- end at the Waldorf.” It was se- ind the system seems to be working all right any department c appropriations zgives the Governor argue that enant-governor sary if the Territ the State of Washir practice u ry had to pay the where such and where the lieutenant- little or nothing to do most of the time The bill would give the gov | vision and control” over all other Territorial depart- ments, a broad grant of power that could be abused general super- rnor would allow the to fill Legislature by At are filled by special election, which » democratic, also give ‘the Territorial Legisla- governor appointment d ture the power to amend or repeal any ordinance passed | 1, thus setting the Legislature up gislate on municipal matters, some- een frowned upon in Alaska. would provide that at the end of al period all general appropriations spent by | ompletely will be deemed to be re- out action by the Legislature, thus regardless of the need purse strings. ear terms.

Ladt year at a similar party staged by Mrs. Roosevelt, the picture was “The Voice of China.” . . . Ladies of the pre: peppered the evening with whispered remarks about the con- trast between Truman and Roose- velt hospitality. You can’t please all the people all of the time. MANAGEMENT PROGRESS It didn't appear in the headlines, but just before the much bally hooed Labor-Management meeting, a secret labor-management con- ference took place, which already has achieved results It was a meeting behind closed doors of the National Labor Rela- tions Board, conducted by hard- working NLRB Counsel David Merse, and attended by representa- tives of the AFL, CIO, UMW, Mechanical Engineers’ Society, Na- tional Association of Manufactur- ers, and the U. S. Chamber of Commerce. Two problems were de- cided which should improve labor- management harmony. 1—U. S. Chamber of Commerce Representative Charles A. Horsky proposed waiving union elections if a substantial number of veterans returned to a factory's employ. Under the law, an employer can ask the NLRB for a new election if a large number of veterans re- turn. Naturally, unions do not favor these elections. However, Horsky proposed that holding these elec- tions would take undue advantage of servicemen in industrial rela- tions, and therefore the problem of returned veterans should be worked out by labor representatives them- selves. ! ‘That's the most enlightened statement I have ever heard made by an employer spokesman in the public interest,” exclaimed Joseph A. Padway, AFL General Counsel 2 Second decision was to abolish hearings in connection with NLRB ballots as to whether work- ers shall be represented by a union —provided disputes affect only one employer and one union. Approxi- mately 78 per cent of all disputes " before the NLRB are in this cate- stead of holding long and pro- tracted hearings, it was decided that elections should be held imme- diately by regional NLRB officials. NLRB headquarters in Washington will stay completely out of the pi ture. This policy will speed up pro- cedure by three months in 78 per cent of the cases before the board. The set-up will not affect dis- putes where more than one union or more than one employer is in- volved. In these cases, the hearings must be held (Copyright, 1945, By Bell Syndicate, Ine.) - - Has Solution fo Help in Disputes of Labor WASHINGTON, Nov. 21.—A min- jster has outlined a plan to help reach solutions in labor disputes The Rev. R. A. McGowan, the dir- ector of the Social Action Depart- ment of the National Catholic Wel- fare Conference, suggested the crea- tion of impartial fact-finding boards.

In the Aquarian age the wel- {fare of the people is a ruling influ- ence and it is well to recognize the new order as of far-reaching possi- bilities, the seers declare.

The peace of the world depends on more understanding among the three great powers of differing ideas Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of hard work which should be profitable.

It is promising for routine matters. HEART AND HOME Women are under the kindly dir- ection of Venus today and should be fortunate in pursuing social mat- ters. It is a promising date for marriage engagements. Suitors will be more cautious than in war years and will be trustworthy and de- pendable, it is forecast. BUSINESS AFFAIRS Big business will be greatly con- cerned regarding legislation at this time when plans for lasting peace may seem to interfere with long- established methods of trade and commerce. Astrologers emphasize that Aquarian influences will ov: ceme selfish interests. NATIONAL ISSUES Congressional opposition to cer- tain plans for benefit to returning Service men and women will be slight, but it will be stubborn against protracted substantial aid for the unemployed. INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS In the fast-developing new world, government by the people will spread. Kings and queens, with all that roy- alty long has implied, will gradually be relegated to the past. Imper- ialism also is to be outmoded. Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of advance- ment which may seem slow but should be fortunate. Children born on this day may have superability. Good brains and sturdy characters are indicated.
