Reckon It's a Joke? REMEMBERING the axiom about many a serious thing being said in jest, you can grin at this picture ot a “No Vacancy” sign hanging— temporarily, it may be hoped—on a city-limits marker at Los Angeles, Calif. All towns being in about the same fix, it can be surmised that the sign was hung up by a home-hunter who'd quit trying.

Truman Message Washington, Jan. Hi.—(AP)—The combined budget-State of tile Nation message which President Truman plans to send Congress on Monday will probably run between 20.00C 1 and 25,000 words in length. Senate Group Wants To Let JJrait Law Die In Favor Of Youth Training Bill Washington, Jan. lfi,—(AP)—The uncertain life of the present dralt law posed a new complication to day in the already difficult task ot finding demobilization replacements for the army. lnflential members of the House Military Committee dis closed that they are ready to let selective service die May 15— the day the existing law is to exoire unless Congress again extends it. The army has been relying largely up.m the draft for recruits to re place the claVnoring long - service Gl's overseas, but in recent months, it has been falling short of meeting the average monthly induction re quirements. Abrupt termination of the draft law on May 15 would eliminate the major source of replacements 1 >r those in later release categories, leaving occupation duty replace ments or the success to the avmy's enlistment program. The reason committee members are ready to let the draft law die is that thev hope thereby to sal vage the bogged down universa training legislation requested b\ President Truman. Meanwhile three senators tuVke: the task of finding some way U speed the return to civilian life o same 2,000,000 fed-up service mei who have ''”en shouting ‘'we wan to go home.” _ FAMINE LOOMS AS PACKERS IN TWO ONIONS DEGIN STRIKE L'in/e Steel Firm Head, l nion Boss Begin Conference Washington. .Ian. 1(>.— (API — Orp«n«*nts in (lie threatened steel strike were called hack lo the White House today by Pres ident Harry Truman for a fresh try to keep 800.000 key workers in steel mills on their jobs. Wake talks between Benjamin F in less, presich.it if the UUnited States Strcl Corporation and CIO j Union President Philip Murray, plus top administration labor advisors took up where they left off last Sat urday when the membership-ap proved strike was postponed one week. Definite Optimism. Mr. Truman voiced definite op timism that the steel dispute would be settled before the strike deadline, now set for next Monday- He also told a news conference that he was hopeful for an end of the General Motors strike on the basis of the fact finding board's recommendations which the firm thus far has refused to accept. The President also sought to persuade principals in the meat packing industry wage dispute to resume bargaining here to mrorow. AFL and (TO union leaders said at Chicago. His re quest. through Labor Secretary Schwellenbach was received too late to head off the walkout which began at midnight. An AFL official indicated willing- | ne.-s to call a halt i.'.id continue nego- ! tiations. however. Meanwhile, the author of the ad ministration's fact finding bill ad mitted il was not likely to pass the Senate in its present form. Senator Ellender. (D-La.) told a reporter, however, that the final version of the measure | ought to provide a basis for leg islative machinery which may include conciliation and volun tary arbitration of labor dis putes. The present fact finding boards pointed by Mr. Truman lack sta tutory authority and it was to remedy this handicap that Mr Tin man asked Congrc ss for legislation to remedy this handicap. The Ellender bill calls for .1 30 riny cooling off period in labor dis pute i.’.id would give fa d finding boards power to call company re cords. Bcf iiv the' White llo ise steel talk resumed, (hero were indications that the wek delay in that strike was duo to Mr. Truman's intercession alone and not to any concession by either of the disputants.

North Carolina merchants are looking forward to sales volume greater than that i.l 194a. according lo Willard L. Dowell, executive sec lelary of the North Carolina Merch aitls Association. The forecast was based on results of a survey anui'.g leading merchants in all se.lions ol the state. Many merchants have expressed the fear that current strikes and retarded reconversion mav contin ue for several months and that 0 udity goods in ample qm.Mtity may ni l be available until the last half of the year. But the backlog of having power represented in savings and long felt desire lor merchandise will create such demand when goods do appear on tile shelves j that the yearly average will be u hove that for 194.4—which was a ro | ord breaker. From other sources, both state and natiiial. comes inti rotation j that retail merchants are alert to j seize every opportunity to promote trade and that there is a rapid re ! turn to pre-war habits of -.ourtesv i and service. It may not be possi 1 ble fur several months to reinstate all the "free" services of alteration. d< livery and such, but from all quarters come reports that snles 1 people realize that a buyers' mar | ket is approaching and that more , effort must be exerted to please the | customer than was lecessarv dur ing the period of extreme scarcity of goods. Customers also are show ■ ing more tendency to demand quali ty and value in merchandise ottered ! a.ross the counter.
