Irkes referred to this as the "rawest promsilion" he hail ever received. Pauley denied he had sutificsted it. In a letter dated today, Pauley told the President that all charges made against him "have been answered and shown to be false." Asserting that he had rceat edly stated he would not consider asking a withdrawal until he had an opportunity to answer, Pauley continued: "No honest man qulls under fire. That Is why I have stood my ground until the fiilnj; has ceusi-d." No Antidote For Hysteria Pauley added: "Hut no matter how complete the answers to falsi charges may be, I do not lelieve there is any immiiliate antidote for the cur rent hysteria that has been en gendered by those misrepresenta tions.

Mr. Truman replied In his letter that Pauley's belief that there is no Immediate antidote "to the tac tics which have been employed against you," is "the only reason I would accept for the action you now ask me to take."

At present he has a technician and a receptionist in his employ and right now is installing a new S3 r.OO V-rav machine. educational leadershln be sacri ficed und the executive control of the system be placed in the business office wholly, the foun dational beginnings now firmly laid would, in my judgment, lie wrecked, regardless of the abilitv and capacity for leadership of ine ousmess manager. He declared that he had hesi tated to reoui-st retirement pend ing a board's decision on this matter. 'The problem of leader ship in Oregon's state system of higher education Is of utmost Im portance," he said. "No business office should be clothed with the final recommending power" on educational matters, he said, "however well aualified its head ship, because its power Is the vi tal factor in determining educa tonal, scholarly, and scientific levels of the Institutions." Accomplishments Listed Hunter listed these sccom plrshmonts obtained during the unification of Oregon's institu tions under a chancellor; coopera tion of the institutions; more po ular supoort of financial aid of higher education: a technique for selectng institutional heads from a nationwide field; a standard pattern for development of insti tutions: a code for develonment of curricula in the schools; in creasing of salarv levels 30 oer cent since 1937: administrative agency to adjust problems aris ing between schools: a series of Inter-lnstitutlonal enterprises.

Faculties Demand More Pay The board at Its meeting todav faced a demand bv university and college faculties for a 20 per cent salary increase. A committee of six speaking for all institutions In the state svstem declared that Oregon's in stitutions would be ruined unless salaries are increased quickly. Dr. I-oo Friedman, Oregon State College nrofessor of chem istrv, said faculties would be drained off to higher-paving in dustrial and educational posts, and that the crisis was too acute to await the next state legislative session. The board passed a resolution saving it "recoenizes the acute emereencv and will do everything In Us power to meet it" In for mation of budgets for the year starting July 1. pay, and "adjustment of the con troversy" regarding unionization of supervisory, technical and cleri cal employes. Lewis has threat ened a nationwide coal strike April 1, if necessary to enforce his demands. The union's bargaining ' com mittee, a I'MW spokesman said, will meet with industry negotia tors with Instructions to base the wage issue on shorter hours and job classification differentials "and bargain the best Increase they can get." A session of the wage confer ence was scheduled today and was expected to be devoted ot ! union arguments in suport of the general demands. I he operators were to make a formal reply to Lewis' demands later In the week, after which sessions will be recessed until Monday. The Idle across the country be cause of labor disputes dropped to below 750,000, as more strik ing steelworkers reached agree ments with employers. A further reduction was ex pected, in view of an announce ment by an official of the Scovill Manufacturing Company in Waterbury, Conn., one of the "Big Three" of the brass industry, that a wage agreement had been reached with bargaining repre sentatives of 4,300 striking CIO brass workers. Wage negotiations between the General Electric Company and the CIO United Electrical Workers Union was scheduled today. As the company end union repre sentatives attempted to effect a settlement ending a two-month walkout of 100,000 CIO workers, non-production employes were returning to the company's plants in 16 states under a plan recently approved by GE and the union. The strike, in support of demands for a $2 dally wage boost, started January 15. put a new strain on Russian American relations today and threatened a crtical test of .UNO's powers to preserve peace. Officials here are frankly puz zled as to the Russian objective in sending more troops into a coun try from which it was supposed by international agreement to' have withdrawn all its force, by March 2. Speculation on what the Rus sians may be up to covers three possibilities. Diplomats believe 1 1 ) they may be trying to force a pro Soviet government on Iran, or 12) to bring sufficient threats of force against Turkey to win ter ritorial concessions a.id rights in the Dardenclles, or 131 that they may have some designs on the Mosul oil fields of Iraq. If any of these or a combination Is the answer, it seems certain that Russian aims will he in sharper conflict with British in terests and with American pro nouncements than at any time since war's end. Fresh Wrangle Looms Top officials here firmly expect that unless the Russians change course and greatly modify their reported activities the whole is sue again will be thrown into the United Nations Security Council, scheduled to open its next meet ing in New York March 25.
