Labor-Industry
Program Wins
President's Praise
t
WASHINGTON, Mar. 20 (UP)
President Roosevelt today
praised the proposed labor-management
charter for a postwar
partnership. He viewed it as
a means of making possible "the
full employment of labor and
capitul under our system of free
competitive enterprise when hos
tilities cease."
He voiced his pleasure over the
proposal in n letter to ATL Pres
ident William Green, CIO Presi
dent Philip Murray, nnd U. S.
chamber of commerce President
Eric A. Johnston, who proposed
the plan.
The president said ho was
"very pleased" to learn of their
decision "to effectuate the dual
objective of cooperation In Indus
try and national prosperity" in
the postwar period.

and he could not commit the
NAM to its principles as yet.
Moshcr said that such a char

liberations by a larger and more
representative group" which
could implement the statement
ml add to its strength.
"Otherwise," he said, "instead
of promoting unity between la

couched in such general terms
could easily breed further mis
understanding between them and
really not materially assist in

"Underground" Is
Already in Action
LONDON, March 20 (UP)
Radio Berlin made Us first claim
today that the nazi underground
operations have begun in Ger
many when it said that' "freedom
fighters" had condemned and
killed the mayor of Aachen.
The Incident was considered so
important that the big Berlin sta
tion Deutschlandsender broke in
to, a musical program to an
nounce it.
Allied front dispatches two
days ago said the mayor of Aach
en, Frnnk Oppenhoff, 41, who
was considered an anti-mizi, wus
slain bv three uniformed Ger
man soldiers on the back porch
of his homo. The assassins es
caiied. The nuzl transocean agency
said a "traitor" German, Mayor
Velten of the village of Meutze
nich, near Monuchau, was killed
by an explosion caused by "un
known perpetrators" in his home
lust night.
A Mannheim nazi newspaper,
the llakenreu.banncr, emoted by
TrniMuce;m, said Velten had been
,ai schoolteacher who had "put
himself at the disposal of the
Americans,"

Marshall Says
Army Use of Boys0
Of 18 Shortens W&-
WASHINGTON, Mar. 2!l (UP)
The army must use 18-year-olds
as combat replacements or
run the risk of prolonging the
war in both Europe and the Pa
cific, according to Gen. George
C. Mur.fh.ill, army chief of si:..
In a letter to,Kep. Clifford K.
Hope, R., Kan., published in to
day's Congressional Kecord, Mar
shall said American soldiers ar.'
,-,'M'i vinu li(ttlr r,imlt:i! tr.'lillini'

Hope had ,u,sked Marshall o
explain why young soldiers are i
toing sent into battle with only
13 to 17 weeks' basic training.
l.l lo weeKS oasic i .lining i
mien uie uran ime was iuwl'k-u
to 18, Hope said, parents had the
impression that their y-'Hing sons
would be given a full year's
training before facing the enemy.
Marshall told Hope that sol
diers sent overseas are usually
given additional training after
they reach the theater of opera
lions. In come cases, however,
he said, this is not possible.
He pointed out thai while il
required a year or more lo train
a full division, an individual sol
dier placed in a veteran unit may
be adequately prepared for bat
tle in much less time;
"It should be kept in mind,"
Jie said, "that all of these men
i , . ure assigned to units with
long combat experience where
the leadership from non-commissioned
grades upward is in the
hands of veterans."
