The stoppage disrupted the air

Cancels Date at
Atlanta Meet
- ATLANTA, June 17-V-Negro
snnger Josephine Baker today can
celled an Atlanta appearance af
ter three white hotels refused ac
commodations. Miss Baker, wife of a French
man and long the toast of cafe
society in Europe, was to appear at
the National Association for the
Advancement of Colored People's
convention.. V
When she tentatively agreed to
appear at a benefit performance
June 30, Miss Baker stipulated:
1. She was not to appear before
a segregated audience.
2. She and her troup, made up
S of both whites an (J negroes, must
be provided accommodations in
one of the city's leading hotels.
Since the NAACP has rented
the Municipal auditorium for the
convention, the city quietly has
agreed not to insist on segregation.
Under Georgia law any white
hotel which grants accommoda
tions to negroes wouldjbe liable to
"revocation of its innkeeper's li
cense. Walter White, NAACP executive
iecretary, protested the hotels re
fusal to Secretary of State Dean
Acheson, only to be advised by
the state department that it was
without authority to act in the
matter. -

Dispersal of
Industries ;
Said Needed !
WASHINGTON, June 17 - WV
Tbe possibility of an atomic at
tack makes it imperative to scat
ter America's industrial plants, a
senate-house economic committee
staff report; said tonight.;
The report added, however, that
the actual trend under the gov
ernment's defense , program Is
toward even greater concentration
in existing industrial areas. j
The committee staff; recom
mended that the defense produc
tion act, which congressional com
mittees are now considering for
extension l and broadening, be
amended with a view to reversing
the trend wherever practicable.
The present law; expires June SO.
The report suggested new pro
visions aimed at requiring the es
tablishment of new plant facilities
to the greatest extent possible "in
areas which have greater geo
graphic security ; from enemy at
tack." r I ; . - I 1 :
No adequate government proce
dure now exists to provide for dis
persal under federal loan programs
or under i the defense . plant tax
amortization program, the report
said. ' . -; ; I r- , . . i .
"The economy of ? the United
States is facing for the first time
in modern history the possibility
of having to maintain industrial
production under conditions of di
rect military action," the report
added. 'A. ,
Coupled with this need for pre
paring against actual , enemy at
tack is the equally serious problem
which is introduced by a perma
nent large -scale mobilization
begun at a period when our exist
ing industrial capacity -was fully
taken up by civilian demand.
"Fortunately, the solution of
these two problems may well lie
in the same direction. Since there
is no known defense against the
atomic bomb Itself except i space,
dispersion is one of the first con
siderations ; for strategic safety of
industrial facilities. H '
The committee staff said that
on the basis of plans already re
ported by business, capital outlay
by American industry is expected
to total almost $24,000,000,000 tins

Mobilizer Charles E. Wil
son said today he has ' enough
confidence in the congress to be

essity" of extending the ! defense
production act as Prsident Txu
man requested.
Mr. Truman asked for a two
year extension with enlarged
authority. The. law now! expires
June 30. i
Wilson turned thumbs down on
a suggested four-month extension
of the act as it stands. He Indi
cated he believed that would only
result In more hearings similar
to those that have been underway
before congressional j committees
tor several weexs. ; t
On Video Program i
Wilson, appearing on a; televis
ion program, said:
1. An aircraft production board,
similar to one which operated in
World War II, will be set up in
the defense production adminis
tration within a month. i
2. A study has been ordered into
the advisability of "encouraging"
synthetic wool production in this
country.
3. Under present plans, the
United States will have a poten
tial capacity of 50,00 airplanes a
year by 1953.
4. The bill now before the house
levying .more than $7,000,000,000
in additional taxes is a good step
in the right direction." But he
said he Is afraid there is "an ele
ment of 'soak the rich' in it and I
think it goes too far in that re
spect'
"Good Account"
Expressing general approval of
the manner in which the defense
program is rolling along, Wilson
said he believes "we could give a
very good account of ourselves
now in a war with Russia.
Meanwhile, senators said early
returns from President Truman s
radio and television appeal to the
people to rally round the expiring
price-wage controls law have been
something less than conclusive.
Both republican and democratic
lawmakers said they : had hoped
for an outpouring of mall to show
what the public really thinks, but
it has been slow to develop.
Mr. Truman in his speech Thurs
day warned that prices will soar
right "through the roof" and sub
ject the nation to ruinous Infla
tion unless congress quickly en
acts tough new controls. The old
law expires June 30. ;
