March 23 — (£>)— Racing against a March 31 dead line. Republican Senate leaders today gave sugar and rubber con trols and a bill to ''maintain /elective service records top priority in a busy wek. That date originally was the target, too, for action on the plan 10 "aid Greece and Turkey but leaders now have abandoned hope „t getting it through Congress this »-eek. Both the sugar rationing and pricing program and the wartime tubber control program expire au tomatically at the end of the month unless Congress con tinues them . The House already has acted to extend both pro prams until October. The Selective Service act also expires on March 31. but Presi dent Truman has requested legis lation to keep intact the registra tion rolls and other records. The legislation would replace pre ient draft machinery with an igency to maintain the records. Senate Leaders hope to dispose of these measures tomorrow, to jether with authorization for United States participation in the International Refugee organiza - tion. This would clear the way for debate later this week on the nom ination of David E. Lilienthal as chairman of the Atomic Energy commission. Fight Looms Forty nine Senators—a majority -already have pledged votes for Lilienthal’s confirmation but his opponents have made it clear that they intend to wage a bitter fight.

S.-Canadian border would be “wide open” by the end of the week unless Congressional appro priations were forthcoming. “As far as I know this district is going to be liquidated,” he said, adding that the cut-back already had started. MacKay directs 150 men in the Customs patrol along the Cana dian border from Wisconsin to the Atlantic coast. Unaffected will be officials at regular ports of entry and the Bureau of Immigration and Nat uralization Border patrol. “If there isn’t something done about it (the appriation),” Mac Kay said, “every man in the dis trict will be on terminal leave by the end of the week.” Asked if illicit border operations would increase due to the cut-back, he commented: “She’ll be Wide open, and they’ll really take advantage of it.” Today And Tomorrow By WALTER LIPPMANN THE BV-PASSING OF U. N. The reason given by Mr. Ache son for the by-passing of U. N. is that there is an emergency in Greece and Turkey and that “the United Nations and its relaied or ganizations are not now in posi tion to extend help of the kind that is required.” It is true that there is an emer gency which the U. N. is not now equipped to deal with. It is true that the United States must deal with it. But these are not reasons for by-passing the U. N. They are reasons why it is our special duty and deeply to our in terest to make it plain to the United Nations why in our judg ment there is an emergency re quiring us to act unilaterally. For the charter was adopted for the express purpose of preventing na tions from acting unilaterally and or, their own judgment in matters which affect the interests of other nations. Precisely because w'e feel that the emergency is such that we must make an exception to this rule, we should be seeking the opportunity to recognize the moral authority of the U. N., lest the ex ceptional case establish a prece dent which W'ill then be the rule.

Along The Cape Fear HELP ARRIVES — Last Friday, in telling of one of the famous railroads associated with the his tory of the Port City, we told how the Cape Fear and Yadkin Valley line had its depot on the west bank of the river. In order to get freight and pas sengers into Wilmington proper it was necessary to use a steamer, the Compton. Our guess was that the wharf located on this side of the Cape Fear which served as a terminal for the Compton was situated be tween Princess and Chsetnut streets. “However should any old-timer care to correct us on that loca tion, we will be pleased to ac knowledge our error immediately,’’ we wrote in Friday’s column. * * * NEW LOCATION — Mr. E. G. Hall of Winter Park was kind enough to take us at our word and called as to the location of the local terminal. The good ship Compton docked between Grace and Chestnut and not Princess and Chestnut streets, Mr. Hall assures us. And that kind reader ihould know because he informed u* that when a youngster he used to work at the terminal. In addition to straightening us out as to the exact location of the Wilmington-side dock for the old Cape Fear and Yadkin Valley rail road’s steamer he told us about a former member of the Compton crew who still lives in the Cape Fear region. * * * IN SEARCH — Mr. Hall says that a Captain Sherman who now resides on the Loop Road, served aboard the Compton and should be able to give us all the informa tion we desire about the history of the ship. So as soon as we can contact Captain Sherman, we promise you that we will let you know what life was like working aboard the fa mous old vessel that connected the Port City with the depot of the Cape Fear and Yadkin Valley line. * * * KIND LETTER — Mr. C. C. Chadbourn of 415 South Front Street, who has given us much help in the past, was kind enough to bring us a letter containing much mate ml on the early days of (Continue! v Page Two; Col.

Lennon made it clear last night that he would not introduce, sponsor or support any further legislation relative to the civil service law. Lennon’s statement came upon being asked whart further action he contemplated in reference to the measure. He said that the police depart ment and the fire department had been operated under the civil service commission since 1S41 and that until 90 days ago there had been nothing but high praise for the police force. In fact, he point ed out, it had been considered second to none in the state. He said that he had never and did not now attribute the trouble in the police department to the civil service bHl and explained his belief that what has happened could have happened had there (Continued on Page Two; Col. 3) WARMWEATHER DUE TO “STICK AROUND” WEATHERMAN STATES BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Warm weather which was sup posed to accompany the beginning of spring last Friday finally ar rived in North Carolina yesterday and the weatherman says it should stay around today and possibly to morrow. Most cities in the state reported readings in the 70's Sunday with Winston-Salem’s 74, the official high for the state, the Charlotte Weath er bureau said. It even warmed up on Mt.

PRODUCERS, UNION SIGN WAGE PACT _ i Threat Of Strike In Rub ber Industry Averted By New Agreement CLEVELAND, March 23 —f/f) — Weary unionists and company ex ecutives of the nation’s "big four” rubber producers early to day averted a crippling strike hours before deadline, thus setting a wage pattern expected to apply throughout the industry. After weeks of drawn out ses sions, and at least two break downs, the United Rubber Work ers (CIO) and big ,|our. officials cancelled the first major industry strike threat of 1947 by agreeing on these terms: (1) Hourly increases of 11 1-2 cents for 110,000 unionists, retro active to Feb. 2, 1947. (Average current wage is $1.34) (2) The new wage scale will be subject to re-opening at the end of 120 days. No increase in the prices of rub ber products will be necessary as a result of the settlement, said L.

Burnett, member of the city council, might be appointed chief of the Wil mington police department were squelched last night with the an nouncement by Burnett that he was “not interested” in the posi tion. ■ He returned to the city yester day after a week-end cruise aboard the Navy patorl craft 776 and re leased the announcement upon be ing advised that speculation had linked him with the job. Meanwhle, City Manager J. R. Benson revealed last night that he planned to contact Senator Al ton A. Lennon and Representa tive Robert M. Kermon today in reference to the civil service bill. He did not specify what he had in mind but it is believed that he still hopes to have a portion of the measure relating to the 18 month limit on the appointment of a chief of police from without the local department either revised or eli minated. Lennon introducde a new civil service bill last week which con tained the provision that a rnan appointed to head the police force, if named from a source other than among the present personnel of the department, could serve for only 18 months from the date the bill became law. Benson has expressed dissatis faction with this limitation, say ing that the legislators had side stepped the issue in the attempt to successfully compromise differ ence in opinion between the gov erning body of the city and the police department. ‘Gray Goose ’Ganders Off To Serve Nobler Purpose Unlike an old horse, the police department’s “Gray Goose” or “Black Maria” has been succeeded by a new patrol wagon, but it has not been turned into the pasture of discard. Instead of drunks, and law-break ers of higher calibre, the “Goose” now will haul farm produce for its new owner — P. J. English of Wal lace, The “Goose” waa bought last week by Wim'ord Padgett, Star News composing room employe for his half-brother. Padgett says his half-brother plans to use the wagon on his Duplin county farm. The wagon, now 16 years old, probably could tell some exciting stories were it able to tell anything. But mutely it has gone on its way to serve a more nobler purpose in its new environment. Lonf live Um “Gmm!” Deputies Are Stymied Over Asset Rights Gen.
