It's a wedding parly picture, but so far nobody knows whose. The photo above was found among Adolf Hitler's personal effects at Berch tesgaden. At first bclievod to be taken at his reported wedding to Eva Braun, later investigation indicated it may have beon snapped at wedding of Eva's sister. Only persons Identified are. front row, left to riqht: Major Braun, Eva's father; SS General Fegelein, possibly tho bridegroom; Greta Braun. Eva's sister, possibly the bride; Hitler. Eva Braun and her mother. Third from left in back row is Heinrlch Himmler, Truman Seeks Aid To Conversion to Peace Industries (Continued from PaRe 1) tion industries must expect at first to produce at a loss until they actually are in mass produc tion again. Truman proposed limited tax relief effective next year by means of a transitional revenue bill designed to spoed reconver sion and expansion. He proposed careful modernization of the en tire federal tax structure. Obsolete Wage The picsidcnt recommended a "substantial" immediate increase in the fair labor standards act minimum wage from its present 40-cents-an-hour level and that workers processing agricultural products be made eligible. He said the 40-cent scale had be come "obsolete." For congressmen he urged ralary increase from $10,000 to $20,000 a year, and suggested a retirement plan. He recom mended, however, repeal of the $2,500 expense account. These recommendations were accompanied by a plea that con gress soon provide "decent wane scales," but for persons in the executive and judicial branches. Ho bluntly domnnclcd an emer gency reconversion period ox pansion of uncmploymert insur ance protection which ?io said now in on too low a standard covering too few persons for too short a time. He asks a maxi mum basis up to $25 for a 20 week peiiod in any one year. Tho foregoing is e temporary, emergency proposal. Truman emphasized it is not to be con fused with "the broader ques tion of 'extonding, expanding and improving our entire so cial security program." lie promised a later message with particular recommendations for legislation to meet the broad er oueslion. Still other messages will proposo improvement of the national educational program and recommend "a national health program" providing "all Ameri cans" with adequate medical care. The hi allh message also will propose measures to "pro tect tlwni from financial loss and hardships resulting from illness and accident." Housing Renewing his urgent request for a "full employment" bill, Tru man leant d heavily on private rntcrprii-o and investment to keep the pump primed, especial ly on a housing program of "real istic size." A "vast backlog of orders" for all kinds of goods, and joint fed eral and private financing of a mult t -hill ion-dollar housing-slum clearance program, were basic in Truman's confidence. He said that the fundamental principle of new housing legisla tion shoulrl be that "house con struction and financing for the overwhclmig majority of our citizens should lyj done by pri vate enterprise. " 10 Million The president foresaw con struction of lO.OOO.OO'O to 15,000, 000 new homes in the next 10 years rt presenting a privat ? in vestment of $00,000,000,000 to $70,1K)0,000.000 and employment of millions of workers. To speed the housing boom, the president pledged govern ment facilities to maintain mod erate financing terms for persons of low income, fie proposed fed n.il stimulation of research for better and cheaper housing male rials ;tnd methods.
