TWOHERALD AND NEW3 HELP ASKED FOR POSTWAR L WASHINGTON, Aug. 14 (IP) Senator Mitchell (D-Wash.) ask ed War Mobilization Director John W. Snyder today to help expedite return of the Pacific Northwest lumber industry to peacetime production. Ho reauested that the army release heavy-duty tractors and trains earmarked tor military use, that the army and navy needs be re-assessed to permit the release of lumber for urgent civilian demands, and that the war manpower commission state . itwar policy regarding : ..i ment in sawmills and ir'i ;.' operations. Probltm Acute vhe reconversion and de unionization problems oi the Pa cific Northwest are going to be especially acute because of the heavy concentration ot war in dustries in that area," Mitchell Wrote. "The lumber industry will need to work at full cauac ity to supply deferred civilian needs. This will afford employ ment for returning veterans and men from the war industry." Mitchell also made public a letter to Price Administrator Chester Bowles suggesting that the OPA delegate greater autn- ority to its state and regional offices. He also urged that OPA adopt "a more realistic policy which exempts as many items as pos sible."

Motor Oil AND 41 Louise Knott of Washington Gillespie, Harry Pierson and J. Peace Hopes Touch Off Early Outbursts In Nation By Tha Associated Press Peace hopes soared to the cele bration point today from the Far Pacific to the Atlantic seaboard as indications multiplied that Japan's surrender was near. It was a nerve-tingling climax to long, suspenseful waiting marked by premature celebra tions last Friday, when the Jap anese offered to quit if they could keep their emperor, and Sunday night, when a quickly killed false surrender flash moved on the wires of the United Press. ' . Most war plant and other workers punched the timeclock as- usual today although 4200 foundry workers at the Ford River'Rouge plant lefUtheir jobs after an unidentified man blew the factory whistles. Army and navy inductions also continued as on any other .day. In contrast to the joyous out bursts on Pacific islands, western cities and some coast centers, most of the nation waited quietly, if not calmly, for a go-ahead from Washington before cele brating. ' . The first Tokyo report pro duced impromptu parades in New York's Times Square. Dark ened windows lighted up, ticker tape streamed down and crowds of celebrants roared out patriotic and martial songs. Rejoicing soldiers and sailors In San Francisco climbed to the tops of trolley and cable cars and clanged the car gongs as the vehicles nudged their way carefully through surging throngs of peace-greeters. Out on Guam, hard-fighting marines took the reports of Jap anese surrender skeptically, commenting "it can't be all over." Enlisted men generally took the news without signs of excitement. Sailors waiting in line before a recreation hall fori their beer rations said they hoped peace would bring "extra beer." Natives at two Guam villages planned celebrations. .TOPAYtjfiiiyTiij j jh TWO , PHONE 3262 . -n'" Showi 12:30 flfl " MARGUERITE " LARRY ' ' ' ' ffO$ fgMPMAN -'PARKS ja fashion model--,j 51 Yf- talks it over with Ssilori Vtinon A.

The com plaint was signed by Taylor aft er he received two severely cut fingers when Moore allegedly at tacked him with a double-bitted axe last Friday at Bly.

Junk Dealer Dies In Jail ' SEATTLE, Aug. 14 W) Rob ert .Love, 40, a junk dealer, ar rested yesterday when sheriff's deputies traced to him the source of poisonous alcohol, died in tne county jail early today.

Deputies Edwin P. Cleary and Owen Hogan said Love was In toxicated when arrested and ad mitted selling the alcohol but not for human consumption. They seized a 55-gallon drum, containing alcohol which they were having analyzed today. UNEMPLOYMENT NEW YORK.

Ha doesn't go there Just to gut llkkvrca up ulthough ho sometimes does Just that, even as Americans do. The pub is a great pluco to tulk things over.) These British cousins of ours are no quitters.

In tho world of the future, tho British aro overlooking no bets, nnd their Far East bet is nil Im portant ono. , y On Friday morning (the day after tho political end of the world) the London pnpers gave EQUAL PLAY to the Postdnm terms to the Japs nnd the elec tion news. Tho Times printed an editorial about it right along side its calm, tolerant, well-thought-out essay on the star tling, not to say revolutionary verdict of the voting. THERE is n lot of guessing I en m n r t It lmiA m n h n parent ly, In tho Stnte's) about the on British foreign policy. Here Is this rank outsider's guess: In Its ESSENTIALS. Brit ish foreign policy will be VERY LITTLE AFFECTED. British foreign policy (which, unlike ours, is definitely tied up With ihtt u.alfnra nt aunra t3t-iHel subject) is something that goes on nnd on, regardless of elections and party changes. IVJOTE thnt Churchill took Alt- test of hot elections, ALONG WITH HIM to Potsdam. It wasn't just a Churchilllan gesture ot sportsmanship. It went much deeper than that. It went, in fact, clear down to the roots of the British system. Remember that this Potsdam conference, with its unbelievable possibilities for good or evili be gan while the verdict of the Brit ish election was still held In susoenslon. 'There was the In evitable, unpalatnblc, rough edged and hard to swallow con tingency that Churchill's Con servative party mlht be over- tnrown and the Labor nnrtv mieht triumph. In that event BRITAIN (as It turns out to have been) would be left In an ex tremely awkward position, with a new man coming into the con ference right in its middle. Somehow that daneerous situa tion had to be circumvented to whatever extent was possible. SO Churchill took Attlee along, so that, In the event of the dreaded chnnee of power, Att'ee would have been there on the ffround. taking Dart In the de liberations, familiar with the Ho. cWons, EQUIPPED TO CARRY ON for Britain. IT was a fine thlna to do. But, because It is FUNDAMENTAL In the Brit'ih system, it must be repented that it wasn't just a spontaneous, snnrtsmanllkc ges ture on Churchill's part. Churchill is CAPABLE of (hit kind of gesture, but he didn't do it just as a personal move. He was simplv doing what he knew British public opinion called up on him In the circumstances to do.
