Dealey had written that MacArthur told him the occupation could end in . six months "if we are not too ruth less and cruel." "What he (MacArthur) said," today's statement asserted, "was that occupation forces, under favorable conditions, could be reduced to minimum size in six months.

Other prime developments in cluded: ;1. Secretary Schwellenbach, declaring "the time (for action) is short," told the Chicago con ferees their meeting cannot fail, ; 2. As the nationwide total of workers idle in strikes and shut downs hit 350,000 the house ways and means committee shelved all legislation proposing liberalization of unemployment benefits. 3. Chrysler corporation and CIO United Automobile Workers representatives in Detroit open ed the first formal negotiations of the union's demand for a 30 per cent wage increase in the automobile industry. The Chicago oil strike confer ence provided the first major test of the Truman administra tion's postwar wage policy under a reorganized labor department and strengthened . conciliation service. More than 30,000 CIO Oil and Refinery Workers are out in seven states in demand for a 30 per cent wage increase. in wasnington, tne ways and means committee put aside Pres ident Truman's request for lib eralized unemployment benefits by a 14 to 10 vote.

Elevator Strike Jams Empire Secret Plans For German Attack On England Told (Continued from Page One) of six armored, one SS and two motorized divisions. i Reserves were to total nine in fantry divisions and eight ad ditional infantry divisions which were to be available from gen eral headquarters reserves, the documents showed. Secret Weapon Timed with the assault the Germans were prepared to un veil their secret weapon, the six barrelled Nebclwerfer mortar. Code word for the invasion was to be "Sealion." The plan called for' two beachheads of army group A to link up. The first main objective was a liny northeast from Portsmouth toward Aldershot and Guilford, then east to Lcatherhed and on through Caterham and Gilbury on the Thames Estuary. The Germans apparently hoped to smash British and Canadian 'defenders in the Hedgerow country of Kent, Sus sek and Surrey and then drive on to the second objective, a line from Colchester on the east to the mouth of the Severn and north of Bristol on the west. The nazis hoped to cut off London and send mobile forces through to occupy important coastal towns and industrial, towns in the midlands. The documents disclosed that the earliest top-secret order from German headquarters 'to the 16th army was sent .out August 17, 1940. No D-Day was specified. The order' said the "date will be set later." , ' - An invasion operation order for September, prepared by army group A, also was found. If the Germans had launched their invasion it was likely they would have employed a force for the' landings about the same in strength as the allies used in Normandy on D-Day. The nazis had 13 divisions earmarked for the actual landing operation, along with airborne forces total ling probably a division and a half. About nine divisions prob ably would have gone ashore the first day. The allies used nine divisions on D-Day three airborne and six infantry. ; The United Stales has almost 3,000,000 miles of highways, nearly half of which are classed as improved.

Are they enshrined in German hearts as something approaching divinity, to bo revered and venerated forever? Well, as to that a naturalized American who was born and educated in Germany, came to the States and made a success in business and is now back here trying to do his part in straight ening out this mess, said to this writer the other day: . "You know, the former nazi big shots are now in about the same boat the Republicans were in America back in 1033 when they had just been tossed out on their ears by the New Dealers; , "I can't find that the Germans of today have any more use for a has-been than Americans have and I find plenty of evidence that all known nazi party lead ers, from the top clear down to the bottom, are in exactly that position. Instead of being heroes and martyrs they are Just has beens.". T"HAT, if true, is extremely lm A portant. That is, it WILL BE extremely important If we are smart enough, or lucky enough, to get Germany onto Its feet and going, with jobs for people to do.

Meanwhile, two threats of In-ter-unlon trouble arose today In the AKL lumber strike which has paralyzed over 40 per cent of tho northwest lumber indus try.

"Our American Federation of Labor loggers are 'out', and none of their logs arc going to be handled, that's a cinch. Me also cast doubt upon anoth er "hot cargo" issue, saying he was not sure whether Seattle Teamster Boss Dave Beck's state ment that pre-strlke lumber would be moved by Teamsters was made seriously.
