jurisdiction.
The police captain said the
girl's parents, Lt. Comdr. and
Mrs. Jacob Marks, reported at
2-46 a, m. that Florence was
missing from her Bedroom ana a
ladder had been found leading
into a second story window of
the Marks house.
Rinai Doorbell
Forty-five minutes later, Feek
said, Mrs. Ethel Smart telephon
ed police that the girl, clinging
to a blanket, had rung her door
bell.' Mrs. Smart lives 14 blocks
from the Marks residence.
The Marks are parents of
two other children. Police said
apparently the others were not
awakened during the kidnaping.
Feek said Marks reported he
and his wife had been out of
the house earlier in the evening,
had returned about 1 a. m., look
ed in Florence's bedroom, found
her safe and then left the house
again to take home two girls
who had stayed with their chil
dren earlier in the night.
It was at this time, Assistant
Chief Chaffee said, that the
prowler climbed into the Marks'
home, having been frightened
away several night ago while at
tempting to climb into the home
of a neighbor of the Marks.
When they returned, Feek
said Marks told headquarters,
they found Florence was gone,
the blanket off of her bed was
missing and the ladder propped
against the outside wall near a
second story window.
Mrs. Smart said she was awak
ened about 3:30 a. m., when the
doorbell rang. She called down:
"What is it?" When she re
ceived no reply she went to a
front window of the second
story, saw Florence clinging to
the blanket and again asked:
"Who is it?"
"A little girl," Florence an
swered. "Who brought you here?" Mrs.
Smart said she asked.
Mrs. Smart said that she
thought the child said "a doctor
brought me," but determined
later that the youngster was
identifying herself as "a doc
tor's daughter," and was misun
derstood. '

Labor disputes, which earlier
this week had kept some 50,000
workers away from their jobs,
troubled 11 industries today but
only an estimated 11,000 em
ployes were affected by the ser
ies oi won, siuppttites.
Most of the work interrup
tions were in industries in the
southern and eastern sections of
tlie country and in most of the
controversies less than 1000 em
ployes were kept idle, at any
one plant, giving the labor front
its brightest picture in several
weeks.
The biggest walkout was at
the American Steel and Wire
company's Worcester, Mass.,
plant, where about 3600 workers
remained idle for the sixth day
in what CIO union leaders said
was an unauthorized strike. The
walkout was reported caused be
cause of a controversy over
company-union grievance pro
cedure. There was no indication of a
settlement of a dispute which re
sulted in work stoppage last
Thursday of 2500 textile work
ers in Danville, Va. Spinners at
the Riverside and Dan river cot
ton mills struck Thursday in
protest against' employment of
negroes and the lack of yarn re
sulted in enforced idleness for
more than 2000 other workers.
A two-day walkout at the
Bethlehem Steel company's
plant at Lackawanna, N. Y end
ed today with the return of 140
workers to their jobs.
A strike of about 850 workers
in bakeries in Toledo and Cin
cinnati continued.

had been committeeman for
eight years.

they thought they were voting
for the Dewey resolution "when
in reality -they were voting to
table it."

CASE TO BE SOUGHT
WASHINGTON, Juno S VP)
A spokesman said today the
justice, department will ask dis
missal of suits brought by Mont
gomery Ward & company to
enjoin enforcement of war labor
board orders against it.
The United States circuit
court of appeals ruled yesterday
in another case that the statutes
do not authorize court reviews
of WLB orders.
On the basis of this decision,
the justice department spokes
man said, the government will
renew a motion in U. S. district
court to dismiss the Ward ac
tions. An earlier such action
was denied by the district court
then petitioned the appeals court
in one case. The government
then petitioned the appeals court
to be allowed to appeal the de
cision without a hearing on the
merits of the case. The ap
peals court yesterday rejected
the petition.
Montgomery Ward has five
separate suits pending involv
ing as many WLB orders in con
nection with various of Its
stores and interests.
The justice department
spokesman said it had not yet
been decided when the new
motion would be filed.

arms conducted this past week

"FOUR CORNERS " LORE
Our expression "the four cor
ners of the earth" is a throwback
to days when some races be
lieved the earth and universe to
be shaped like a pyramid.
on Manpower
Q. What does priority referral
mean and how will it work?
A. Employers and unions
agree that no worker will be
hired Into a job unless ho has
been referred to the employer
by the WMU's. U. S. employ
ment service (USES).
The USES will refer work ap
plicants to a job in the order
of the relative Importance of
those Jobs to the war. Thus
some plants or industries will
get first priority on man
power in mi area, denondlng
upon how Important their pro
duction is to the war.
In one urea tin ulrnluue plant
might luivo top priority, in an
other it might be a streot car
company badly In , n e e d of
motormcn.
Q. Does this mean a Job-seek-cr
will bo allowed no choice
but must take the first job sug
gested by the USES and does it
mean an employer must accent
every worker sent him by
U5E5T
A. No. Within reasonable
limits the USES will try to
give workers and employers
freedom of choice, but always
trying to steer workers into
jobs most needing them.
Q. Aro there any exceptions
to the plan? A. The only time
a worker may bo referred to a
job that is not essential Is when:
he is not needed for an essential
job in his area; ho is not able to
accept essential work outside
the area; or, there , is under
norasuip, special emergency cir
cumstances or other good causa
which prevents his acceptance
of an essential job.
Q. Any other exceptions? A.
WMC's regional directors
there are 12 are empowered
to make these exceptions If they
see fit: in establishments em
ploying fewer than eight people:
for outlying communities where
the results obtained from the
program would not justify the
trouble of operating It, and,
other special cases recommend
ed by the management -labor
committees.
- Q. Any penalties for non-compliance?
A. Tho government
could cancel the contract of a
non-complying employer: job
seeker, stubbornly determined
on a Job to which USES refused
to refer him, might have an ex
tremoly tough tlmo finding any
work if all employers in the
area comply with the plan.
Q. Any other control on em
ployers? A. In 184 designated
areas, seriously short of labor,
an employer may bo told ho
will have to reduce tho number
of his employes. He won't novo
to fire any. But as his present
employes quit no new oncs'wlll
be sent him until his total Is
down to the number required
by USES. .
Q.I In trying, to got worker
to move from one city to an
other, who'd pay his expenses?
A. This seems to need clarifica
tion but tho answer apparently
is cither the worker or the em
ployer. fLL1 " " Ji3
