The sources who spoke of Im
pending cabinet resignations
said Vice Prince Fumimaro Kon
oye probably would lead the list.
He is a minister without port
folio. Two other cabinet mem
bers without portfolio who may
step down at the same time, the
sources said, are Lt. Gen. Tosh
ishiro Obata. and Taketora
Ogata. The latter, who also is
chief cabinet secretary, was
named bv MacArthur on a list
of members of the "Black -Dragon"
society, but it was under
stood American auuiormes nan
taken no action against him, In
order to give the Japanese gov
ernment time to prove its con
tention that he was not a mem
ber. The Japanese predicting the
cabinet resignations said a
"wide Ban" existed between
Premier Prince Higashi-Kuni
and the three they expected to
leave the government.
They described Higashi-Kuni
as personally Interested in "the
gradual democratization of Ja
pan, both as a reform step and
in compliance with the wishes of
General MacArthur, and said
Konoye and the others had op
posed the premier's attempts to
smooth relations between the
Japanese and American govern
ments. The cabinet has been critt
cized by the Japanese press for
delay In solving pressing prob
lems sucn as iooa and nousing
shortages and increasing unem
ployment The resignation two days ago
of Mamoru bhisemitsu as foreign
minister was the tipoff that all
was not well within the cabinet,

Labor Head Gets
Broad Powers
WASHINGTON, Sept. 19 (P)
President Truman today signed
the executive order giving Sec
retary of Labor Schwellenbach
broad new authority to deal with
labor problems.
The president formally turned
over to his labor secretary the
war labor board, war manpower
commission and U. S. employ
ment service but stipulated that
WLB decisions are to be final
and are not to be subject to Mr.
Schwellenbach's review.
Administration of unemploy
ment compensation, the order
made It plain, will remain under
the social security board, but
functions previously performed
for the states and the social se
curity agency are shifted to the
labor department. . ,

brought Western Europe to its
present state.
: A German woman and her
daughter sat down beside him.
They were obviously of the bet
ter class women of CULTURE
as opposed to what we have
come to know as German KUL
TUR. They were undergoing obvious
mental suffering. Finally the
mother turned abruptly to the
soldier and said, with some ef
fort: "If you will give me a pack
age of cigarettes and a candy
bar, you may spend tonight with
my daughter."
CORDIDT Cheap? Disgusting?
" Yes, such things usually are
sordid and cheap and disgusting.
But these days stark tragedy is
stalking Western Europe. Life
here, for millions, is down to the
raw. Down to fundamentals.
And a package of cigarettes
and a candy bar are MORE than
mere luxuries here. They can
be BARTERED for simple foods
in considerable quantities. And
it is being said grimly and rather
often around here that in a lot
of Europe women are about all
that is left to barter.
a
ANYWAY, the American sol
dier declined the proffered
exchange but GAVE the cig
arettes and the candy bar. You're
hearing a lot of cynical and
salacious tales about what Amer
ican soldiers are doing over here.
A few of them, yes. But re
member that the American army
is a cross section of American
life. American life includes a
lot of GOOD along with some
that is bad. -
The majority of our soldiers
here are on the ALL RIGHT
side.
Jap Calls On
Eichelberger
TOKYO, Sept. 19 (ZP) Lt.
Gen. Robert - L. Eichelberger,
commander of the U. S. 8th
army, today received an official
call from Gen. Kenji Doihara,
new commander of the first
Japanese general army.
Headquarters said Doihara
appeared "courteous and co
operative" and promised full co
operation to facilitate the oc
cupation. General Doihara, known as
Japan's "Lawrence of Man
churia," was named commander
in chief of the first general army
after the suicide of Field Marshal
Gen Sugiyama.
Chinese Ask Us
To Disarm Japs
CHUNGKING, Sept. 19 (IP)
P. H. Chang, a government
spokesman and counselor of the
executive Yuan, said today the
United States had been invited
to send troops to Shanghai, Nan
king, Peiping and Tientsin for
the purpose of helping disarm
the Japanese.
The invitation by the Chinese
government, he said, was on the
understanding that it was a tem
porary measure.

Snell Statement
Governor Earl Suell today
said, "The policy of the state
police department has always
been to furnish assistance to
local officials when requested.
The sheriff of Klamath county
by telegram requested that a
few state policemen be assigned
to the Klamath area as a pre
cautionary measure."
"There is some disagreement
and misunderstanding as be
tween CIO and AFL unions at
tached to the lumber Industry
in the Klamath area. It was in
dicated Tuesday night that it was
entirely possible that an under
standing would be reached Wed
nesday morning."
The governor refused to show
newsmen a copy of Sheriff
Low's telegram, saying the sher
iff had requested that it not be
given to the press.
Meanwhile a special concilia
tion commission, encouraged by
preliminary attempts to settle a
threatened strike among north
west lumber workers, met again
in Portland this morning with
operators.
E. P. Marsh, chairman of the
commission appointed by the
secretary of labor, said both
labor and management had
shown in preliminary meetings
"a sincere desire to reach a set
tlement." Met YesUrday
The commission met yester
day with over 200 representa
tives of operators and leaders of
the AFL Lumber and Sawmill
Workers union the, largest
group Marsh, regional director
of the U. S. conciliation service,
had ever witnessed at such a
session.
The AFL policy committee
spokesman, John M. Christenson,
told the commission the "quick
action of the secretary of labor
averted a strike at the moment.'.'
The 60,000 AFL workers have
approved a strike in support of
their demand for a $1.10 hourly
minimum. "This industry has
spent the past few years waiting
months and even years for de
cisions, Christenson said, "and
in every case the delay has in
jured the interests of the work
ing people."
Settlement Asked '.
The AFL declared that only
an industry-wide settlement
cot individual plant wage in
creases would be satisfactory.
The commission held first a joint
meeting, then separate sessions
with labor and management last
night.
Meanwhile, the CIO Inter
national Woodworkers of Amer
ica prepared tobegin counting
strike ballots from 36,000 mem
bers, in support of a 25-cent-an-hour
flat wage increase now be
ing negotiated.
D. N. Clemens, manager of
both the Ewauna Box company
and the Bly Logging company,
two operations closed by the
strike, said today he has been
waiting for union men to get
together with him for a meet
ing. Spokesman for both firms,
Clemens gave out copies of a
telegram sent the west coast
lumber commission in reply to
its "request" telegram last
week, and also a letter sent the
union in reference to the same
subject.
Here are the telegram and

Houston on a proposed strike at
seven large oil refineries and al

Union officials have issued a
strike mobilization order to mid
west refining plants involving
an estimated 30,000 workers. A
strike vote, they said, would
cripple refining operations in In

Wisconsin and Kentucky.
The Carnegie-Illinois Steel
company said that the first two

had caused its huge Gary plant
to shift from fuel oil o tar in its

"There will be no padding in
