Company officials;' on the

been waiting for the meeting,
agreed upon between AFL and
CIO unionists at the picket line
last Wednesday,' morning, and
had had nothing to do with the
failure of this conference to de
velop. Hartung said that If union of
ficials could speak to the owner
of the mill the dispute would be
settled in 20 minutes.
It was understood that con
ferences had been held by the
conciliation service with both
the AFL machinists and the CIO
separately with management,
but that a joint meeting of all
three groups had not been held.
Virgil Burtz, vice president of
the IWA-CIO, concurred with
Hartung's statements and said
that he would remain here for
a few days in the event that a
joint meeting was negotiated,

Coast Guard Cuts
Discharge Score
WASHINGTON, Sept. 8 Of1)
The coast guard today reduced
its point score requirements for
the discharge of male personnel
from 49 to 43 for commission
ed and warrant officers and
from 44 to 40 for enlisted per
sonnel. The coast guard, operating as
a part of the navy in wartime,
said the cuts were made to
bring the fate of releases in
line with that of the navy
proper.
Until today, the navy and
coast guard point scores for dis
charge were identical. The coast
guard said however, the lower
average age of its personnel
acted to release proportionately
fewer members of the coast
guard. Hence today's change.
51
GLENWOOD SPRINGS, Col.,
Sept. 8 (P) A siding collision
of two Union Pacific passenger
trains injured at least 51 per
sons last night and derailed one
locomotive and two Pullmans.
Three of the victims remained
in serious condition today in
Glenwood Springs hospitals.
Of 33 persons still hospital
ized, 12 were Union Pacific em
ployes. The trains were operating on
Denver and Rio Grande "West
ern tracks because of a Union
Pacific railroad bridge fire in
Wyoming. The collision, on a
mountainous route, occurred at
6:15 p. m., when the Challenger
ran into the rear of the Los
Angeles Limited.
Railroad and navy officials
said today those still in serious
condition were:
Mrs. Maggie Ward, 51, of Le
Grand, Calif., internal and back
injuries: Roy Byron Rathburn,
navy storekeeper, third class,
Streater, 111., head and neck in
juries; G. Carlson, carpenter's
mate, first class, USNR, Den
ver, internal injuries.
Because the main tracks were
not blocked, trains were able
to bring the injured into Glen
wood Springs where ambu
lances rushed them to doctors.

the British and American' of
ficials will start from widely
separated bargaining positions
but with common agreement on
ono basic point: it is in the long
range interest of the United
States to help Britain get back
into peace-time industry and
trade as soon as possible.
Some American officials with
an eye to postwar markets in
the United Kingdom, say that
such a reconversion in Britain
would be a great help to business
expansion and the creation of
jobs in this country.
What United States represent
atives want out of the British in
the talks beginning Monday is
fairly clear.
400,000 Nazis
On Crime List
WASHINGTON, Sept. 8 P)
As many as 400,000 nazis may be
tried for war crimes when the
allies deal justice to the archi
tects and terrorists of World
War II, it was disclosed today.
Guilty big shots probably will
be hanged. The military regards
shooting , as "an honorable
death."
Small fry who get off with
their skins may be given labor
sentences, perhaps helping re
build what they destroyed in
Russia and elsewhere:
Hitler's terror organizations,
the gestapo' and the SS (elite
guard), will be charged collec
tively with war crimes. Con
viction would mean automatic
punishment of any member of
either outfit who couldn't prove
he was forced in.

to make good the damago that
was done in the ucrman in
vaslon. A seriicant in our occupation
force in the Berlin area says
that when his outfit was moving
in they had to watch the Rus
sians at every stop or they d
have pulled off the engines that
were hauling our trams ana
started them back to Russia,
leaving us standing.
.
VET, without exception, our
men rcuort that in every per
sonal contact the Russians arc
agreeable and helpful. Ono of
our pilots, flying from Berlin to
Frankfurt, got caught in bad
weather and short of gas and had
to land on a Russian field. He
could speak no Russian. The
Russians could speak no English.
But among them they all knew a
little German and so they got
along.
Our pilot was fed, quartered
and when the weather Improved
was given gas to get on his way.
He says he was never treated
more courteously.
Our representatives at the
first meeting of the four-nation
group council in Berlin say the
Russians were difficult to deal
with until thev Rot a clear un
derstanding of what we were
proposing, out wnen tney unaer
stood what we were driving at,
and It seemed reasonable to
them, they became co-operative.
You can una any American

is willing to say that they are a
menace.

VOU hear all kinds of stories
about slave laoor in- uer
many. One of our well informed
experts, who spcakes fluent Ger

svmDathizer. says there Is gen
eral misunderstanding as to how
a lot of these outside workers
got to Germany in the first place.
Plenty of them, he says, came
of their own free will because of
the higher wages they could
earn. Many of them married
here, and are remaining in Ger
many. This man savs that the great
majority of Germans didn't and
STILL DON'T know about the
horror camps. He thinks our
telling of the story of these
camps to the Germans has been
poorly done and adds that it is
by long odds our best weapon for
bringing home to them the guilt
of their nation. When ' clearly
and convincingly presented, by
moving pictures accompanied by

There had been little interest

in unabashed concentration at
