White House advisers were
quoted at second hand as having
said Mr. Truman had decided to
take his stand and let the politi

These advisers reportedly think

don't act.
No Compromise
The president was represent
ed as wanting no compromise of
his proposal that every young
man be tagged for a year of gov
ernment instruction, except
those physically unfit.
Capitol Hill's general Inter
pretation was that Mr. Truman
had decided power is Koine to
do most of the talking in world
affairs for some time to come.
Legislators thought he had
come to this conclusion after
long conversations with - Gen.
George C. Marshall, army chief
of staff, and Secretary of State

been told that he was subject

Humble had presented testi
mony of city policemen and
others to the effect that Young
had suffered fainting spells and
attacks periodically for as far
back as 10 years and that he
had been hospitalized "at least
three times because of the at
tacks, both before and after the
accident.
Cross Examination '
Under cross examinationMrs
Young stated she had no per
son a i Knowledge ol tne in

heard of them later.. She also
said she did not recollect telling
Mrs. McPherren, wife of the
dead man, during a conversation
at the hospital where McPher
ren was taken following the ac
cident, that Young had heart
trouble.
Young also testified that he
had no personal knowledge of
the attacks mentioned by Hum
ble's witnesses, but that he was
later informed about "some of
them."
This portion of the defend
ant's testimony was attacked as
unreasonable by the district at
torney in his closing argument.
Young also stated that he had
never been told not to drive an
automobile, but that since the
accident he has not driven and
does not intend to drive any
more. He has sold his trucking

that, if the police and Young's

anything of importance wrong
with the defendant, they should

operating a motor vehicle.

corporation officials. But a
union spokesman asserted that
a strike would not necessarily
follow the election.
He predicted a light turnout
of GM's 300,000 employes, but
sufficient to make a strike le
gal. Results will be announced
by the national labor relations
board, probably late tomorrow.
Union spokesmen predicted 90
per cent of the voters would
approve a strike.
The ballot held the center of
attention along the nation's la
bor front, and will be followed
by a- vote tomorrow among
Chrysler corporation employes,
and among Ford Motor company
workers on November 7. Across
the country labor disputes kept
about 225,000 men and women
away from work, a slight drop
in the last 24 hours.
As workers voted, Officials of
General Motors and the union
resumed their wage conference,
but there were no indications
of a settlement. Walter P.

dent, said at yesterday's sessions
GM officials maintained an "at
