Warren Calls Legislature to Tackle Schools
SACRAMENTO (P)—The California Legislature will be called into special session September 20 by Governor Warren to break a legal log-jam in the states $250,-000,000 school bond construction program.
The legislators will also be asked to consider:
1. Strengthening civilian defense legislation, including the revitalization of the state's wartime antisabotage act.
2. Bringing the state's social security laws into line with federal laws which would be liberalized by a measure awaiting President Truman's signature.
The legislature normally would not have met until next January 7. Its last session ended April 15.
Warren said in a statement:
"The school construction program ... must continue without interruption until there are enough classrooms for all of California's school children."
Under present law only $5,000,-000 of the school bond money approved by the voters last November can be apportioned each month after an initial allocation of $50,000,000. Applications are coming in faster than that.
The situation was brought to a head by a recent attorney general's ruling that only $15,000,000 of the $50,000,000 more bonds scheduled for sale next month.

"Do we have a chance?" "Can we help you?"
That's what most of the passengers asked the stewardess, Margie (Pinky) Peterson of Geneseo, Ill., as an American Airlines plane made a hair raising 19-minute flight on three engines with a huge hole gaping in the fuselage early today. Most of the 52 passengers remained calm, the stewardess said.
The plane was flying over the Rockies, at 21,000 feet when the right inboard engine broke loose and tore away a large section of the fuselage.
"There was a terrific flash and the cabin got cold suddenly," said Martin Stringer, Westchester, N.Y., who walked away from his third emergency landing. "One man was on his knees—he was either mighty sick or praying."

State Chambers Log Price Of Defense
WASHINGTON (Speial)—Figures showing what the $48½ billion spent for the Military Establishment during the last four years means in terms of Federal taxes to various income groups were released today by the Council of State Chambers of Commerce. These show over the four years that:
A family of three with an income of $3000 paid $645.59.
A family of four with an income of $5000 paid $1130.08.
A family of four with an income of $7500 paid $1798.92.
In addition, these family groups paid out Federal taxes for other purposes connected with defense. These totalled a little less than $4 billion and included such activities as arms aid to friendly nations, stockpiling of raw materials and atomic energy projects. But they meant $49.85 in Federal taxes to the $3000 family group, $87.26 to the $5000 group and $138.90 to the $7500 group.
The council's study revealed that $6.75 out of every $10 spent for the Military Establishment went for pay of all personnel, and for food, clothing and supplies for the soldiers, sailors and marines. Less than $2 of each $10 spent for
Ex-Mayor Chapman Tells Sewer Need
Northern Orange county residents soon will see sewage flowing in the streets as evidence of the urgent need for the new proposed Magnolia-Cannery trunk line, former Mayor Irvin Chapman of Fullerton told the Fullerton Kiwanis club at its meeting yesterday.
Chapman is chairman of the citizen's group supporting the move to build the proposed trunk line to relieve overloading of the present joint outfall sewer system, particularly the present Euclid avenue trunk.
As soon as the tomato canning season begins and waste from the cannery starts crowding the already full lines there probably will be overflow of sewage into the streets, Chapman declared. The present lines are built to carry a sewage load for 80,000 persons, but are already serving 100,000 population, said Chapman.

Fear Railway Strike Spread To Major Line
By The Associated Press
WASHINGTON—Another White House attempt to settle the rail strike failed today as more workers left their jobs.
John R. Steelman, assistant to President Truman spent two hours and a half trying to find some way to bring representatives of the striking unions and a committee of railroad officials into a joint conference.
At 10:30 a.m. (PDT) he announced that both groups had left the White House without getting together and with no definite plans for further meetings.
But presidential secretary Charles R. Ross said they may be called back for further conversations later today.
Ross had said earlier that Mr. Trump had given this instruction to Steelman: "Keep on trying."
Railroaders struck today in Pittsburgh and Chicago despite a White House plea to stay on the job.
The Pittsburgh strike stopped 40 daily passenger trains on the Pittsburgh and Lake Erie. The Chicago strike was confined to a freight line.

WASHINGTON—House Speaker Rayburn (D-Tex.) suggested today that Congress should adjourn, or take a recess until some definite date, as soon as it completes action on emergency legislation.
He told reporters at the White House that he had advanced this idea during President Truman's regular weekly conference with Democratic Congressional leaders. Asked what was Mr. Truman's reaction, he said the president regarded the question as one solely for Congress.
Senate Democratic and Republican leaders have been talking of a series of brief recesses, rather than formal adjournment.
Senator Lucas of Illinois, the Democratic Floor Leader, said yesterday he hoped for a recess on a standby basis, three days at a time, "pretty close" to Labor Day, September 4.
The big difference between adjournment and a series of threeday recesses is this: once Congress adjourns it cannot come back into session except by special call from President Truman.
Republicans are reluctant to adjourn. They argue that Congress should continue in session technically in view of the International situation.
NEW YORK—Supply and demand hit a fairly close balance in today's Stock Market.
Rails tried to step out of a narrow price pattern but there was not enough buying fuel to carry them very far. On the whole they did a little better than other groups.
Price changes generally were limited to 50 cents a share or less.
For a while in early dealings it seemed possible that demand for the carriers might haul the entire market forward. A little progress...
Local Realtors Will Observe 'Home Week'
Realtors in the Anaheim area will participate with other groups in the observance of "National Home Week," September 10 to 17, according to plans announced yesterday by Bert Arnold, president of the Anaheim Realty board.
One of the purposes of the week, Mr. Arnold says, is "showing to more people the advantages of home ownership."
At the present time, he said, 75 per cent of the nation's families own their own homes. In Anaheim the figure is close to 70 per cent.
The national figure, according to Mr. Arnold, is the highest ever reached in this country—or in the history of any other nation.
"We invite the cooperation of all organizations and persons interested in construction, financing, furnishing, maintenance and ownership of homes to participate with us in recognition of the opportunities of home ownership for more American families," Mr. Arnold stated.
Korean War

In four days. And the 5th Regimental combat team from Hawaii fought its way back to commanding heights of the Sobuk Hills near Tundok, just south of Chungam.
AP Correspondent Stan Swinton reported from the southern front that the 25th Division regained all the ground lost previously to attacking troops of the red Korean Sixth Division.
Allied intelligence officers said the North Koreans had shoved nine divisions up to the winding battleline which extends from the southern port of Masan north to Waegwan above Taegue and thence east to nine miles north of Pohang, South Korea's No. 2 port.
U.S. B-29s hammered Chonjin, North Korean city near the Soviet Siberian border. Seventy bombers loosed 700 tons of bombs on installations.
Announcement of the B-29 raid was made as the North Korean radio said in a broadcast that Allied bombings had killed or wounded 11,582 civilians and destroyed 11 important industrial plants.
The broadcast said half the casualties were killed. The red radio added 16,504 houses were destroyed between July 2 and August 3 when the larger Allied bombing raids were started.
Aside from the roaring southern battle and the continuous probing patrols north of Taegu, the rest of the curling front was quiet Tuesday afternoon.

rents because such action might lead to a return of rent controls."
Wood's move climaxed a drive for decontrol in Anaheim which began 10 months ago. In November, 1949, local landlords surveyed the rent situation in Anaheim and concluded at the end of their study, that the housing situation then precluded no further need for rent controls. A public hearing on February 7 led to a decontrol resolution which was sent to Governor Warren, March 2.
Anaheim's decontrol petition died on Warren's desk June 30 when the Governor's jurisdiction in decontrol matters was terminated by the Federal rent law.
The petition was immediately forwarded to Expediter Woods who returned it with the advice that a new public hearing was necessary before he could act.
The second public hearing was at which no opposition to decontrol was encountered, conducted in the Council Chambers August 8 and the new resolution sent to Woods immediately thereafter. The result was today's announcement.
