Douglas MacArthur will meet this weekend, somewhere in the Pacific. The purpose of the meet ing is to discuss “the final phase of United Nations actions in Korea.” According to Charles Ross, White House secretary, the inia tive tor the meeting was made by Mr. Truman. Ross also said that the decision to hold the meeting came up “fairly fast.” How ever, he did say that it was not the result of any sudden emcr gency. This will be the first meeting of the President and Mac Arthur, who have never seen each other. MacArthur has not been in this country since 1937. President Truman. . . ... will deliver two important speeches after his return from his Pa cific rendevous with MacArthur. The first will be in San Francisco, Oc tober 17. No site has been selected for the talk, but the message will deal with foreign policy, and will be “non-partisan.” Mr. Truman’s second talk will be given before the UN on October 24. And it is expected that his review of the Pacific situation will be the ba sis for the speech. Yugoslavia Joined Forces... . . . with several other small powers Tuesday in support of the Seven Power Plan. This plan authorizes the United Nations General Assembly forces to combat aggression. Australia, Peru and Brazil were the other countries backing the U. S. led program. _ Immediately after this announcement, Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei Y. Vishinsky told the UN Political Committee this Anti-Agression Plan "would explode” the UN charter from top to bottom if some parts of their proposal were adopted. He was particularly bitter about a provi sion for calling the assembly within 24 hours when the Security Council was paralyzed by the veto. Vishinsky felt that this was merely a proposal by the 7 powers to liquidate the veto. Vishinsky’s statement had been eagerly awaited by Western diplomats who wished to know if there was any chance of Soviet agreement on a major part of the resolution. Draft Quotas... ... for December were announced yesterday, and the figure was set at 40,000. This compares with-50,000 in September, 50,000 in October, and 70,000 in November. The December call will bring the total to 210,000. The Navy and Air Force which so far have not asked for draftees, will not ask for any in December it was*disclosed. .The Army will thus re ceive the total number, which will be selected from local draft boards with men in the 10 to 25 age bracket. Housing Credit... ... is the latest thing to be put under tighter control by the govern ment. The terms as they now stand require non-veterans to make cash down payments ranging from 10 per cent on houses costing under $5,000, to 50 per cent on houses priced from $24,250 and up. Down payments for veterans will run from five to 45 per cent. The controls are aimed at cutting the pace of home-building from the present record rate of 1,300,000 homes a year, to a maximum of $00,000 in 1951. The control terms will apply to houses started since “noon on August 3”, and not covered by loan commitments made before that date. A New Stabilization Board... . . . was set up by President Truman Tuesday, to bp headed by Cyrus K. Ching, present head of the government Conciliation Service. The board will have nine members, and will be part of the new Economic Stabilization Agency. There will be three members from each of the Public, Labor, and Business arid Industry. Ching will be one of the pub lic members. Dr. Alan Valentine was appointed to head the ESA, and Ching’s board will make recommendations to Valentine concerning policies for holding down wages in the event of wage-priee controls. Yet to be named is a Director of Price Stabilization, who will also work under Valentine. Vice President Barkley.. .. . will be in Tacoma, Wash, today for the first of two speeches in the Seattle area. The subject of the Tacoma talk has not been announced, but the VP will speak from a stand at a downtown intersection. Wednes day night Barkley is scheduled to address the annual Jefferson-Jackson Day dinner in Seattle. Sen. Glenn Taylor's Extradition. .. . . .will not be carried out if Gov. James E. Folsom of Alabama has anything- to say about it. Taylor lost out on an appeal to the U. S. Su preme Court this week from a disorderly conduct conviction in Birming ham two years ago. At that time he was given a 180-day sentence. Birmingham Police Commissioner E. C. Connor said he would "leave no stones unturned’’ to get the Senator back to Alabama to serve out his term. Meanwhile, Folsom said his administration had been doing all pos sible to eliminate “political prisoners.” “I am not going to be a party to anything that means taking away the political rights of any man,” Folsom said. National Guard Units. ... of the 60th Air National Guard Fighter Wing will be reorganized November 1. The Wing will be redesignated as the 142nd, but this change will have little effect on the number of personnel. Wing headquarters will regain in Spokane, but Group combat head quarters will be at Portland. Designation of three of the four squadrons will remain the same. The fourth, at Portland, will be known as the 142nd. Gen. Wallace, Commander of the 60th said the organization is a move to unify the wing as an self-sufficient fighting organization, one that could be called upon to act as a unit without depending on other Air Force units. Trucker John Castner. . . ... is back on his Portland-Roscburg run today, after winning for the second year the national championship in driving a heavy duty truck and trailer. Castner is a Pierce Freight Dines driver. CLASSIFIED GERMAN LESSONS— Conversa tion. Very low rates. Fast pro gress. Room 72, Barrister Inn. 15 FOR RENT—Room for rent for men.
