REMOVAL OF JAP
FACTORIES URGED
Reparations Chief Asks
Truman To Strip Japan
Of War Industries
WASHINGTON, Nov. 16—UP)—
Reparations Commissioner Edwin
W. Pauley tonight urged President
Truman to authorize complete re
moval from Japan of all war in
dustries, rubber, aluminum and
magnesium plants and to permit
“substantial removals” from
eleven other categories of Japan’s
economy.
Pauley made these recommenda
tions to the President in a com
prehensive report on reparations
based on a first-hand study in the
far east.
Following what he called “a prin
ciple of severity combined with
fairness,” Pauley asked the Presi
dent to allow the Japanese to keep
18 industries, and for the Allies to
determine later what to do about
textile machinery, synthetic fibres,
cotton, paper and pulp.
Pauley suggested speed in mak
ing the initial removals because
of “the rapid deterioration of a
great deal of material in Japan,
owing to exposure to the elements
and to packing difficulties.”
The industries Pauley listed as
subject to “substantial removals”
were electric power, iron and steel,
iron ore and ferro-alloy minerals,
copper, machine tools, chemicals,
heavy electrical machinery, indus
trial explosives, communications
and communications equipment,
railroad equipment and rolling
stock, shipbuilding and merchant
shipping.

ber 2.
Specifically, they will explore
sworn complaints that Bilbo vio
lated the constitution by prevent
ing negroes from voting in the
primary in which he won renomi

seat.
The steering committee has ap
pointed Senators Bridges (R-NH)
and Hickenlooper (R-Iowa) as a

senatorial primary in Montana.
2. Informed Patrick J. Hurley,
unsuccessful republican opponent
of Senator Dennis Chavez (D-NM)
that Hurley "or anyone he desig
nates” may file sworn charges
against Chavez. Ellender said the
committee then may send investi
gators to New Mexico.
o. Decided not to act on com
plaints against Senator McKellar

heln in international programs of service. Ilurlng the past year and a half, the school children
of the United States of America have sent mo re than $2,000,000 worth of supplies to children
abroad through the American Junior Red Cross. They have given large sums to the American
Junior Red Cross National Children’s Fund, have sent many correspondence albums, and have
packed hundreds of thousands of gift boxes. The gift box goal for the fall of 1946 is 1,000,000 gift
boxes. The poster painted by Rico Tomaso will be distributed during the annual Enrollment for
Service campaign, which enlists members for such service._

of Maine to be Republican floor
leader in the Senate. Taft express
ed the “hope” to stay right where
he is as steering committee chair
man.
On the house side the contest
for Republican floor leadership be
came a four-way affair, and pos
sible North-South fireworks among
the Democrats were indicated by
a report that Republican Rankin of
Mississippi might oppose Republi
can McCormack of Massachusetts
for the minority leadership.
Associates of President Truman
reported he favors Kerr for the
Democratic chairmanship if Han
egan leaves it. Kerr threw the 22
Oklahoma votes to Mr. Truman for
vice president at the 1944 con
vention, after getting them for
himself on the first ballot.
Friends of Hannegan, who re
cently underwent a physical check
at Walter Reed hospital, quote him
as saying he wants to step out as
party chairman at the National
committee’s meeting early in 1948.
He is expected to stay on as Post

BRITISH, U. S. NOTES
SENT TO ROMANIA
(Continued From Page One)
tru Groza by Burton Y. Berry, U.
S. political representative in Ro
mania. The note, the fourth in a
series since May, sought again to
prod Romania ;nto holding a free
and untrammeled election.
(The notes of May 27, .Tune 14
and Oct. 28 criticized the campaign
arrangements and’alleged discrimi
nation against opposition parties.
In reply, Romania charged inter
ference in her internal and sover
eign affairs. The latest American
note said this plea was inadmissi
ble, and that United States inter
est in the election was derived
from its obligation under the big
three pledge at Yalta to sponsor
free and democratic elections in
the liberated countries.)
CHEST ESTABLISHES
BIG BUILDING FUND
(Continued From Page One)
all for their participation in the
drive.
“We should all be very grateful,
too, to the North Carolina Ship
building company for its very gen
erous contribution in this, its last
year of operation in Wilmington.
We shall miss its support next
year,” they added
They pointed out that, without
the assistance of the shipyard, this
year’s campaign would have fail
ed to reach its goal.
The*, total contributions by the
shipbuilding company and its em'
ployes in the live Community Chest
drives here is $272,830, about 34
‘per cent of the $795,000 raised. Of
the $272,830 the company itself
gave $140,000. The employes do
nated $132,830 in four of the cam
paigns. No solicitation of the work
ers was conducted this year be
cause the plant was closed before
the financial effort was opened.
Of the $795,000 raised in the
five campaigns, $224, 066 has been
appropriated to war relief needs.
In the first effort, $10,000 was ;
budgeted for six war relief agen
cies. During the next three years,
a total of $203,721 was obtained for
the National War Fund, which con
ducted a united drive of all war
relief appeals.
This organization was liquidated
last winter, but at the request of
General Eisenhower and Admiral
Nimitz, the USO was asked to
carry on independently of the War
Fun lor another year. A total of
$10,345,000 for USO was included
in the budget for the latest Com
munity Chest drive. Since the USO
has announced that this will be its
last campaign, directors of the
Chest have stated thaf the next
campaign will include only the
needs of its twelve local Red
Feather services.
The two top divisions in the 1947
Chest campaign were the Down
town Divisions, Lloyd W. Moore,
chairman, which raised 111- Six
per cent of its goal, and the Corpo
rate Gifts divisions Fred Z. Little,

Fight Asthma
Mucus Coughs
Do you cough and cough, especially morn
ings and at night? At times do you feel like
vou were tearing yourself to pieces trying to
get rid of strangling mucus and still you
'hoke. gasp for breath, wheeze and often
can’t sleep? The cause of these devitalizing
c.vmptoms may be recurring attacks of Bron
chial Asthma. In such cases, the very first
dose of Mendaco, a physician's prescription,
usually goes right to work thru the blood
helping relax that clogged up stuffy feeling
in the bronchial tubes, then helps Nature
loosen and remove thick, strangling phlegm.
This helps you get good fresh air into your
lungs and promotes restful sleep, which is a
natural aid to greater energy. Mendaco is
not a smoke, injection or spray, but is in
tasteless tablets which you take exactly ac
cording to simple directions at meals. Men
daco must satisfy in every way or your
money back is guaranteed. Don’t cough and
choke, don't lose sleep another night, be
cause of recurring attacks of Bronchial
Asthma, without trying Mendaco. Ask your
druggist for Mendaco today.
