V - ''--' " " ' .Ramsay World News By Nelson Large LEWIS WOULD GET FULL COMMAND IN PROPOSAL Washington, Oct. 26 Accord ing to a C. I. 0. leader; the re conciliation proposed today by the Committee for Industrial Or ganization with the American Federation of Labor was drawn on a basis which would probably give John L. Lewis control of the federation. . It was suggested by Lewis' 10-man delegation, negotiating' for peace with the federation, that a new C. I. O. department be formed within the federation and be given the power to or ganize workers in mass produc tion, marine, public utilities, ser vice and basic fabricating indus tries. There was no immediate an swer from the A. F. of L. to the C. I. 0. proposal. However, it was announced later that the federation would be ready to give its decision by tomorrow. After pointing out certain facts as to the number of labor ers involved, Lee Pressman, C. I. 0. general counsel, indicated that it seems to be a case where the C. I. 0. would control the fed eration by strength of numbers. He also stated, "We think this proposal puts final settlement of the issue up to the other side The federation conferees can not afford to accept or reject our of fer immediately." The first' person to come out of the conference room was Joseph Curran, president of , the National Maritime Union and a C I. 0. supporter. Curran was asked why the conference had recessed after , holding 'only an hour session. He answered: "You can't expect them (the A. F. of L. committee) to come out of a dead faint and go right on negotiating." ; INSURGENTS MAKE NEW GAINS ON LOYALISTS Hendaye, Franco - Spanish Frontier, Oct. 26 The Daily Communique of the Spanish in surgents reported today that af ter a day of broken fighting they had occupied Osan woods in the Sabinanigo sector today.

A majority of the represen tatives maintained that the re taining of the campus appear ance "as it was in the old days" is more important than firm walking. The motion was defeat ed by a 35 to 12 count. The other, bill under discus sion was Resolved: That out of state students should not be re quired to pay the extra tuition fee.

A complete passage across the ocean takes six days. How many of its com pany's liners will a boat from New York meet before it docks in Liverpool? Answer to the millionaire question: This involves a very commonplace : mathematical procedure, called, ih the sophis ticated lingo of mathematicians, "shifting bases." The solution is found by con verting the $1,000,000 (wrttten in bur system to the base of 10). to base 7. This is easily accom plished by dividing through by 7 and keeping the remainder as the number of gifts of 7to the ""power, t f m , Thus, by dividing by.7 we find the old duffer gave one gift of U (1 being 7 to the "O" power). Next, we divide the previous quotient by 7 to find the gifts of 7 to the lit jtower, and, sure enough, -it's J again. j - - So theinilhoiiaire gave 1 gift of : $7. And again we divide tia previous quotient by7 and w find "otir remainder 3. So he gave $ gifts of (7 tothe 2nd pow er). And, again, we divide tbt previous quotient by 7, and ws find he gave 3 gifts of f 343. (7, to the rd power) . Ad ihnmtuin, and we finally find that he gave one gift of $1, one gift of $7, 3 gifts of $49, 3 gifts of 4343, 3 gifts of $2401, 3 ifts of $16, 807,1 gift of $117,649, 1 gift of $823,543.
