Patton, Jr., conferred with high U. S. military leaders m Europe, and cancelled plans to visit American troops in Austria and the disputed Venezia Giula area. No reason was announced for the change in plans by the U. S. army shief of staff. His official itinerary had called for him to go to Vienna Oct. 15, and then into Itlv. Befoie flying here Eisenhower conferred briefly at Frankfurt with Lt. Gen. John C. H. Lee, U. S. tommander in the Mediterranean Cheater. As Eisenhower entered his big C-54 to leave he turned to Lee and said: “Sorry I won't get to visit you this trip. Give them all my best down there and tell them I m aorry.” Lee said that meant Eisenhower had abandoned plans to visit Aus tria and the Mediterranean theater.

Keat ing. American commandant of Berlin. I This morning Eisenhower flew from Frankfurt to Luxembourg. People of that Duchy lined the streets for the visit. As Eisen hower chatted with the Grand Duchess Charlotte, crowds assem bled outside the palace and began to shout “Ike, Ike. Ike.” At last Charlotte and Eisenhower appear ed on the palace's central balcony and greeted the crowd. MORE ABOUT CENTER FROM PAGE ONE The city’s planning consultant would set the projected municipal auditorium and a new city library immediately adjacent to the high school. The City Council has so far indicated that the old Marine Hospital land at Ninth and Nun Street will be used for the audi torium site. “The high school is geographical ly well centered, and I believe that, with the addition of the auditorium and city library, Wilmington would have an area that could produce a general cultural and civic reviv al”, he declared. Tne Simons plan would also in clude a white play center near the Marine Hospital, and a Negro recreation area near the munici pal hospital. “These would * e large, complete recreatipnal units. We hope too to establish smaller play areas in each neighborhood so that every home would have a park within easy access without its children having to cross heavy traffic arter ies.” Establishment of the cultural center would. Simons hopes, do much to raise the tax value of property now in a state of decline. “This is a long-range project. and must be achieved by degrees,” he pointed out. The plan calls for revival of the district's residential status through the efforts of property owners as a private enterprise development without resort to governmental assistance. “The surrounding area needs re subdivision and redevelopment. There is no reason why it should continue to decline until it becomes an economic liability to the city. “The district already has a young business section growing up. which along with projected cultur al and recreational facilities can enable it to serve persons living in Market Street road and Forest Hills as well as its own residents. MORE ABOUT CAPE FEAR FROM PAGE ONE ca will pay to the Bearer of this Bond, at tr.e seat of the govern ment. or at such place of Deposit as may be appointed by the Secre tary of the Treasury, the sum of C'ne Thousand Dollars with inte rest thereon from date, at the rate of Eight per Cent per annum, pay able semi-annually on the surrend er of the annexed coupons. . . ” * ft * POOR WALLPAPER—We can t bear to read it any further. All we can see through our wet lashes is that the "annexed Cou pons” have been clipped off the sheet up to the one which promis es to pay $40 interest "for six months interest due July 1. 1865.” The remaining coupons—the last one is dated July 1. 1865—have felt neither the sharp edge of a scissors nor the tender fingers of the Treasurer of the C. S. A. When Mr. McClarr.cy brought the SI.000 bond into our office our sympathy grew so large that we completely forgot to ask him where he acquired the entire $100,000 worth. But regardless of that, we believe he must he the richest C. S. A, bond holder along the Cape Fear, although that isn’t saying much. We -ave thoroughly inspected the $1,000 bond he left with us, and much as we hate to debunk pop ular *heory, we feel constrained to reveal that, it would make poor ■wallpaper indepd. A swarm of locusts seen crossing the Red Sea in 1889 was so large that it covered an area of 2,000 miles, ★ Today and Tomorrow ^ f HAiL thk v$ Conquering i HERO)^ ! EDDIE BRACKEN - ELLA HAINES _ ★ 2nd Manor Feature ^ AGAMEOF PLUS; "LATE NEWS" MOKE ABOUT L1PPMANN FROM PAGE ONE Chiefs of Staff, V»e War, Navy, and State Departments, have been as yet unable to agree on the char, acter and composition of our mili tary establishment. Yet if Mr. Byrnes knew clearly how, when, where, and with what measures, he was going to imple ment the decision to oppose Soviet expansion, our military policy would not be so unsettled. There fore, I contend that those who pro fess to be interpreting Mr. Byrnes, and are interfering with the search and shaped a fixed and general policy, are obscuring the problem and are interftring with the search for the solution. * * • This policy, as interpreted by Mr. Alsop from Paris and as ad vocated by Mr. Bullitt in his book, is that the United States should unite the non-Soviet world as a great coalition, and should sup port and strengthen it. If this is the policy, and it is by no means settled that it is going to be or that it can be, it is a bad policy. I do hot say this because it worries me that Moscow will denounce it as a policy of capitalist encirclement. I have no objections to the encir clement of an expanding empire. The policy is a bad one for quite different reasons. It is bad be cause it cannot unite, will in fact disunite, is in fact disuniting, the non-Soviet world. For the non Soviet world is not all of it free, nor all of it democratic, nor all of it capitalist, and even in that part of the non-Soviet world which is deologically nearest to us, our conceptions of freedom, democ racy, and capitalism, arc sharply challenged. If the United State's attempts to lead an ideological crusade for our way of life, it will forment internal divisions in west ern Europe, civil war in eastern Europe, and increasingly it, will find western Europe including Britain drawing away from us. Indeed, this is already happening. Thus, the policy of an anti-Soviet coalition is built on quick-sand. Copyright, 1946. New York Tribune, Inc. MORE ABOUT UNIONS FROM PAGE ONE both unions that they will not jump the gun. "There must De no walkout prior to expiration of the contract*. (Monday midnight). "Earlier this month a nation wide tieup of our merchant fleet was precipitated when seamen began quitting their ships hours before the deadline they had »et for a strike. "This time we are asking a fair chance to work out a peaceful settlement.” Earlier, E. P. Trainer, chairman of the Marine Engineers negotiat ing committee, had described the outlook for the negotiations as "black and bleak.” PITTSBURGH STRIKE SETTLEMENT FAR OFF PITTSBURGH, Sept. 29—W—Ms jyor David L. Lawrence Sunday fight declared there was no imme diate hope of ending Pittsburgh's six-day old power strike and charg ed the leadership of the striking ! independent union with "bad faith'' for failing to accept arbitration of their dispute with the Duquesne I Light company. He asserted that the company at ■first came forward "to late with too little" in their negotiations but that in the end it offered to arbi trate and “they have kept their word.” Lawrence declared he was In ; possession of a signed agreement imad<s by the union president, i'George L.

Friendship Jettisoned Wallace’s elimination wiil be in terpreted abroad to imply “that a staunch advocate of Russian American friendship haj been jet tisoned. . . that there is less like lihood that the search for Russian American friendship will continue to be a cardinal feature in our foreign policy,” said Welles, A frequent sharp critic of Rus sian methods, Welles said he is in accord with the Wallace insist nece upon seeking an understand ing with Russia while safeguard our own interests. Welles say he opposes recog nition of two great spheres of in fluence in the world, as leading inevitably to war. He also declar ed it a fallacy that "our continu ing search for friendship with the Soviet Union must necessarily pre clude close cooperation" with the British commonwealth. MORE ABOUT PHOTO . FROM PAGE ONE The judges and the day of judge ment will be announced soon, he added. Future Ua« The photographers are compet ing for "much more" than the at tractive $75 prize list donated by the Wilm'ngton Retail Merchants association, Bell pointed out. "Act ually, they are competing for the honor of having their pictures used in advertising campaigns which will promote not only the region they live in but also their own photographic talents," he de clared. All the photos entered in the con test, whether or not they win prizes, will be filed in the Chamber’s "picture index" for the future ad vertising campaigns of the Lower Cape Fear area, and when used for this purpose each photo will be credited with the cameraman's name, he explained. MORE ABOUT GROUP FROM PAGE ONE tions on industrial building began last Wednesday nigh when the local VFW post passed a uniamous reso lution urging the liberalization of material priorities for new busi nesses here. Local United States Employment service officials have cited CPA regulations as a major factor in veterans’ unemployment here. VFW cooperation with Industrial Properties, Inc., is based on a mutual understanding that the lat ter organiation will concentrate its “activities upon locating in this area, plants, factories, and indus trial organizations whose employ ment will be predominantly male labor," a spokesman for Snead said yesterday. MORE ABOUT VEHICLES FROM PAGE ONE Sauckel, charged with importing millions of foreign laborers, also was Gauleiter of Thuringia. Verdicts Today Verdicts and sentences will be handed down over a two day period starting at 10 a.m. Monday (3 a.m. EST). It was understood that Lord Justice Sir Gregory Lawrence of England, presiding judge, would start reading the de cision, of more than 250 typed sheets, in the presence of all de fendants. Justices of the other na tions, Francis Biddle of the United States and his Russian and French colleagues, will read parts of the verdict in turn. The first part of the document will review, the case,of high crimes against humanity. The second part will be a weighing of evidence and decisions of each count against each defendant Or organization on trial. It was understood each defen dant would be sentenced individ ually, possibly by the presiding judge speaking for all. Each will be told of appeal rights to the Allied Control council in Berlin as sentence is pronounced. It is doubtful whether any defendant would be allowed to speak further. The tribual was expected to an nounce its formal dissolution after proceedings are concluded Tuesday afternoon, turning over its duties at subsequent trials to organiza tions of the four powers which have been functioning quietly for months. Precautions were taken to protect the judges from pos sible assault by cranks. Schacht Optimistic Mrs. Hjalmar Schacht, wife of the former German finance mini ster, told a reporter as she left Nuernberg: "My husband is optimistic. He is so optimistc that he even wants to quarrel with me. When we were speaking about some matters, he started saying 'do what you like’ and that was always his beginning at family discussions. We have no money left but my husband is by no means depressed.” Mrs. Alfred Jodi, wife of the former German chief of staff, was the lone exception to the exo dus of wives because she worked as a legal assistant. Most of the wives ate sparing ly and obviously without appetite their last meal in Nuernberg. Mrs. Joachim Von Ribbpntrop, Mrs. Al fred Rosenberg and Mrs. Schacht were exceptions. Word was received mat tvirs. Erich Raeder, aging wife of the builder of the German navy, had been reported alive and well and in Russian hands, although Raeder had believed her dead. Russian officers said they expected to bring Mrs. Raeder to, Nuernberg Sunday night. Await Their Fate Other German; who will hear their fate are Rudolf Hess, Field Marshal Wilhelm Keitel, Grand Adm. Karl Doenitz, Walter Funk, Franz Von Papen, Hans Frink, Wilhelm Frick, Albert Speer, Ar thur Seyss-Inquart, Julius Streich er, Hans Fritzsche, Constantin Von Neurath and Baldur Von Schirach. Martin Bormann, Hitler’s dep uty, was tried in Absentia. Robert Ley, once labor front leader, hang ed himself before the trial start ed. Gustav Krupp Von Bohlen Uud Halback was freed from trial be cause his old brain had softened and he had become senile. Dr. Robert Servatious, lawyer for Sauckel, left Nuernberg for Munich in an effort to arrange a compromise of the Russian demand for the Sauckel family, which has been in the American zone. Mrs. Sauckel was here with other wives of defendants for the last time be fore their sentencing. Sources here said the Russians had put a "price on the head of the Sauckel family. They said the Russians were willing to pav a "premium" of 5,000 marks <$500) for each member of the family when the first request was made for their custody. MORE ABOUT FAVORED FROM PAGE ONE any "most favored nation” clause. Then by an identical vote it adopted a clause supported by the United States, Britain and France declaring that the most-favored nation principle must be observed in relation to monopolies whenever foreign participation is allowed. Plea Refused In the Balkan and Finland Eco nomic commission the Russians argued that neighboring states should be given special rights in the Romanian economy. This was refused, 9 to 5, and the delegates adopted by the same vote an American-French proposal for the most favored nation clause. The Italian commission approv ed also an article authorizing Al lied nations to seize for repara tions Italian property within their territory after approving 14 to 6 an Australian amendment to exempt literary and artistic rights from such confiscation. An Ukrain ian amendment to exempt indus trial patents was rejected. Meanwhile, the subcommission on Trieste — the most troublesome Issue before the conference as it drives for Oct. 15 adournment— approved the report of disagree ment it will submit to the Italian commission Monday. For Newspaper Service Dial 2-33X1 lad/s Stomach Was Like A Gas Factory; Meals Turned To Gas One lady said recently that her stomach used to be like a '“gas factory!” That is, when she ate a meal it seemed to turn right into gas. She was always bloated, had awful stomach gas pains, daily headaches and constant irregular bowel action. Now, however, this lady says she is FREE of STOM ACH GAs and she says the change is due to taking INNER-AID. Her meals agree with her. No gas or bloat after eating. Headaches and constipation are gone. “Oh' what relief!” states this lady. “Why don’t otherATA?^and constipaiion sufferers get INNER-AID.” INNER-AID contains 12 Great Herbs; they cleanse bowels, clear gas from stomach, act on sluggish liver and kidneys. Miserable peo ple Mon feel different all over S0 Am °n suffering! Get INNER AID. Sold by all drug stores, MORE ABOUT WILMINGTON FROM PAGE ONE ger kick out of talking about his $12 a week job on the Washington (D. C.) Post as a copy boy than he does of his new contract. After he graduated from New Hanover High school in 1931, he headed for the University of North Carolina. During his senior year at Chapel Hill he was “exposed” to one journalism course, not because he planned on a newspaper career however. It seems that a certain coed had journalism on her sche dule, hence enrollment in the course would assure Ruark of see ing her in class at least. Soon after graduation at Chapel Hill, Ruark tried his hand at be ing a merchant seaman, but not for long. Starting at the Washington Post, he soon moved to the Washington Star, then the Washington Daily News, and finally with the NEA Service in the nation’s capital. Sports was his major field in those days. When World War II got under way, he put his newspaper career in moth balls and joined the Navy. Serves In Navy As an ensign he saw service in the North Atlantic, the Mediterran ean, and just to make sure he'd get a good look at the Seven Seas, the Navy sent him to the South west Pacific. A battered arm hospitalized Ruark for six months, but once again on the mend he became a part of ^dmiral Chester W. Nimitz’s staff. From that spot he was lend-leased to Admiral Sir Bruce Fraser in Australia. There he handled joint security as liaison United States press censor for the combined British-American opera tions in the Pacific. Out of the Navy in October, 1945, Ruark returned briefly to Wash ington as a correspondent. Moved To New York Still searching for a successor to the late Ernie Pyle, Ruark’s em ployer transfered him to New York in January to write a column for the 19 newspapers in the Scrips Howard chain. Married for eight years, his wife is the former Virginia Webb of Washington. At present the Ruarks live at 62 East 54th street in New York City. Always glad to get “home” again, Ruark believes the city has a great future if it capitalizes upon its recreational facilities. His forth coming article for the Saturday Evening Post should be a big boost in the right direction, as he is loud in praise for the Wilmington area!' as one of the finest hunting grounds in the entire eastern section of the country. A daily column and magazine articles is not all that keeps the Wilmington-born writer busy at present as he is also engaged in writing a book. He plans on returning to New York early this week by plane. MORE ABOUT DE GAULLE FROM PAGE ONE former president was pitting him self against three fourths of the legislature which had voted for the constitution, which only the radical socialists and rightists had opposed. Gaulle held himself rigidly aloof from party affiliations, saying “these convictions are my own and do not have a party. They are neither of the*left nor of the right.’’ His objections to the constitution were familiar for he had voiced his ideas on the charter five times since resigning as interim president of France last January. The present charter, he said, “does not respond to the necessary conditions” because it concentrat ed too much of the executive, judiciary and legislative functions of government in the hands of a single body, the National assembly. Such things, he said, “lead first to anarchy and then to tyranny.” De Gaulle struck hard at his critics, mostly leftists, who had as serted he had ambitions to become dictator, and use the “we” termi nology of royalty, in asserting: “We received with disdain the ridiculous imputations of dictato rial ambitions that some hold out against us.” He observed that all these allegations did not originate in France. MORE ABOUT FBI from page one was met by a blow from Laubaugh. McKee said. The FBI identified Laubaugh as a parolee from the D. C. Reforma tory at Lorton, Va., where he had been serving a sentence on a Mann act violation.
