By the Associated Press, NEW YORK, April 16—In order to draft a program that would pro- vide the full co-operation of all baseball with the Army and Navy, Commissioner Kenesaw M. Landis today called a joint meeting of the top executives of both the major and minor leagues and representa- tives of the services for tomorrow. Because of this big-scale project Judge Landis recessed a session of the Major League Advisory Council today without action on the second of the season’s two all-star games, for which a squad of Army and Navy baseball stars is under consideration. Called to Conference. Judge Landis said Willam G Bramham, president of the National Association of Professional Baseball Leagues, had been asked to come from his home at Durham, N. C,, to attend the conference tomorrow with Ford Frick, president of the| National League, William Harridge, president of the American League; Frank Shaughnessy, president of the | International League and a member of the Executive Committee of Mr. Bramham's group and representa- tives of the Army and Navy. It was expected that this group| would agree on a unified plan for all of the two-score leagues in or- ganized baseball to ald the several Wwar charities. Not Reason to Delay. Judge Landis said calling in Mr Bramham and Mr. Shaughnessy to | represent the minor leagues had nothing to do with delaying com- | pletion of the arrangements for the second all-star game, which yester- day was awarded to Cleveland for the night of July 7, 24 hours after the first all-star spectacle at the Polo Grounds in New York Since today's meeting with Col. John Taylor of the Army and Lt. Huggins of the Navy had been | scheduled to consider a plan for | having the major league stars meet a picked team of players from the services in the second encounter, it was assumed that whatever proposi- tion was discussed had to be sub- mitted to the War and Navy De- | partments in Washington before | final action could be taken. Horse Racing Sets War Relief | Goal at $2,000,000 { NEW YORK, April 16 (/) —Horse | racing’s goal for war relief has been | set at $2,000000 by the Executive | Committee of the Turf Committee of America. ‘The committee, headed by Herbert Bayard Swope of New York, today sald the morey would come from race tracks, owners, breeders and other horsemen connected with the sport. The major part of the turf war chest will be derived from the tracks themselves. Different plans are to be employed at differetn tracks, but the commit- tee said that in no circumstance are the tracks to pass on their obligation to the public. Some of the plans that may be employed are: (1) Percentage of the track’s profit at the end of each racing period; (2) several days selected out of each meeting from which all the profits will be given to the fund, and (3) a self-imposed assessment on per capita attendance. landed at Charleston, 8. C. 'Auto Union Officials Tell President Qutput 'Will Be Speeded All Double Pay Rights Have Been Abandoned, Roosevelt Is Assured President Roosevelt received from officials of the United Automobile and Aircraft Workers today their personal pledge that contjnuing ef- forts will be made to speed war production and that the union offi- clally renounces its contractual rights for double pay for Sunday and holiday work. The C. I. O. union’s program for wartime co-operation was lopted on April 7 in a conference at De- troit. In addition to taking the position on double-time pay, the union re- affirmed its pledge to refrain from strikes and supported the operation day basis. Cites Labor's Willingness.

W. group left the | White House, Mr. Thomas told re- porters that the program indicated labor’s willingness to make wartime sacrifices but that it was their opinion that management has not yet displayed an equal willingness. | The emphasis thus far, he said, has been to curtail labor’s rights rather than infringe on any others. Charges Management Slowdown. Mr. Thomas said management, rather than labor, has been re- sponsible for slowdowns in two war production plants.

Krupp Tie-Up Made U. S. Independent in Industrialist Denies Agreement Created Bottleneck in Tools (Earlier Story on Page A-8.) By the Associdted Press. A spokgsman for the General Electric and Carboloy Co.’s told the Senate Patents Committee today that agreements with the Krupp interests of Germany “have had the effect of making the United States absolutely independent of Germany, or any other foreign power, in its carbide industry.” Dr. Zay Jeffries, chairman of the board of Carboloy Co. Inc., gave this testimony after the committee had heard three days of charges by Justice Department attorneys that the General Electric-Krupp agreement had created a serious bottleneck in the machine tool in- dustry in this country. Mr. Jeffries flatly disputed these charges and testified that the car- bide industry, important in the de- velopment of tools for war indus- tries in the United States, now was supplying this country and “also provides a large amount for export to Canada, England and Russia.” Earlier, John Henry Lewin, special assistant to the Attorney General, pool agreement by Krupp interests was feature in British war production the German conflict.

S. Grand Jury Charges Plot to Keep Colored Workers From Project By the Associated Press. DETROIT, April 16.—A Federal | grand jury this afternoon in-| dicted three officers and mem- bers of the National Workers’ League and the Seven Mile-Fen- elon Improvement Association, charging conspiracy to prevent colored tenants from occupying the Sojourner Truth housing | project here. Those indicted are Parker Sage, | treasurer, and Garland L. Alderman, secretary of the Workers' League, and Virgil Chandler, organizer and officer of the Improvement Associa- tion. The grand jury inquiry followed rioting February 28 when white resi- dents of the area near the housing project set up picket lines that halted the attempt of colored fam- ilies to move into the housing units. ‘The homes have stood empty since. Riot Threats Charged. ‘The indictment charged that both before February 28, the day of the riot, and since that time Sage, Alderman and Chandler have pub- licly threatened “rioting and blood- shed” if prospective colored tenants | were permitted to occupy their homes. Meanwhile city officials, presuma- bly inviting nduce from the State police, tackled anew the problem of placing colored families in the project. Instructed from™ Washington to resume with occupancy under the “most satisfactory conditions pos- sible,” officials arranged to confer with Gov. Murray D. Van Wagoner at State police headquarters in East Lansing. The project, situated in a section | Not of northeastern Detroit where white families predominate, has been a subject of heated disputes for months. It had been originally spe- cified for colored defense workers, then to whites, and finally returned to colored. Washington Orders Action, The Detroit Housing Commission was directed yesterday by John B. Blandford, jr., national housing ad- ministrator, to proceed “as soon as feasible” with colored occupancy. “We are at war,” Mr. Blandford said. “Men of all races and creeds are marching in our armed forces and are at work in our vast war in- dustries. That is the spirit of “By the same token, war workers and their families must have ade- quate homes regardless of race or creed if the country’s output of planes, tanks, ships and munitions is to grow in sufficient volume to win | the war.” The instructions from Washington came almost simultaneously with Police Commissioner Eaman’s an- nouncement that he was resigning. He set no date. He said he was reslsmng because of poor health. Alsab’s Time Is Best {In Chesapeake Workouts “he Associated Press. HAVRE DE GRACE, Md.
