ANAHEIM EST. 1870 SECTION II Anaheim, California, Friday, December Dewey Asks Immediate Mobilizing NEW YORK (P)—Gov. Thomas E. Dewey late night demanded an immediate mobilization of American military and productive might to stem the spread of communist aggression. In a speech before the New York county (Manhattan) lawyers association, the governor urged universal military training, a U.S. army of 100 divisions, all-out production for arms and a pay-as-you-go policy to crack down on inflation. The governor also urged immediate call-up of 25 now inactive National Guard divisions. Speaking as the titular head of the Republican party, Dewey said: "Let us get rid of the idea we can stop Russia by appropriating billions of dollars, setting up new government boards and then continuing wage rounds as usual, army of 100 divisions, all-out production for arms and a pay-as-you-go policy to crack down on inflation. The governor also urged immediate call-up of 25 now inactive National Guard divisions. Speaking as the titular head of the Republican party, Dewey said: “Let us get rid of the idea we can stop Russia by appropriating billions of dollars, setting up new government boards and then continuing wage rounds as usual, price increases as usual and politics as usual.” We cannot “sit down and do business with Stalin while we are weak and he is strong,” the governor said. He proposed immediate action on the following: 1. A 100-division U.S. army, an 80-group air force and a full strength Navy. 2. General registration of all U.S. men and women above the age of 17 for national service, and universal military training of at least two years. 3. Legislation for UMT, Dewey said, should be “enacted now—this month—not next month,” and he added: “Even if we mobilize all possible fighting manpower we shall still be outnumbered by the hordes of Russia, to say nothing of red China and the other satellites. 3. Appointment of an economic mobilizer, who should be “the ablest business executive in our country.” 4. A rearmament program on a pay-as-you-go basis to check inflation. “We cannot save our freedom and also keep our personal comforts and luxuries,” Dewey said. “Let us remember that, even then, we will have more than any other people in the world.” “The only effective way to deal with inflation is to finance our rearmament program on a pay-as-you-go basis. Government services—federal, state and local—must be cut to the bone,” he said. “Industry and labor must avoid increasing costs,” he said. “... corporation profits must be taxed heavily. An excess profits tax should siphon off any profits in excess of normal, arising out of the defense effort. “Individual income taxes must be raised up and down the line, and in this connection we must remember that the larger incomes already bear taxes running up to 91 per cent. “Disagreeable as it may be, the spending power of America is not in the hands of a few rich people but in the hands of all of us.” Dewey advocated an excise tax on luxuries, a crackdown on credit expansion, and added: “But we cannot and must not borrow the savings of our people as we did in the last World War and then pay them back in 57-cent dollars. Inflation must be stopped now and stopped hard.” WILL IT BE USED FOR MILK? CLEARWATER, Fla. (AP)—The police gave back a $1 parking fine to a man who wrote that paying it “is depriving my three children of much needed milk.” Chief George McClamma did not identify the man but said he invited an investigation to prove loss of the dollar would hurt his family. McClamma did not investigate, but returned the money with a note that he hoped it would be used to buy milk.

Delegates to the 1950 convention which ended here last night were wiring their Senators and Congressmen. Their president, Iowa hog farmer Allan B. Kline, told them "don't let your Senators push you around." Kline himself tried to reach Mr. Truman by telephone last night to tell him of the federation's unanimous action yesterday in condemning price and wage controls and rationing, as anti-inflation weapons. Unable to reach the president, Kline sent him a telegram declaring "it is our well-considered and unanimously-approved opinion that price controls at the present time would be a tragic error." Shortly before that Kline speaking just before the convention president's board of economists, by telephone and the serling expressed complete agreement with the Bureau's staff. Sustained applause accords passage of the anti-controls legislation, and Kline's news of personal efforts to persuade the dent. "Inflation can not be by price, wage and ratio," said the resolution, interfer with production, Two-Way Television Teaching Nears Us of Workable Reality in East BETTIMORE (P)—Teaching by television—long a cherished profession of educators and TV executives—has moved closer to becomeworkable reality through use of the "split screen" technique. This two-way television permits teacher and pupils, miles apart, to see, bear and talk to each other. It retains the personal element in teaching—something that most television education programs now lack. The method was demonstrated here by a sixthgrade geography teacher and class for persons attending a TV-education clinic sponsored by station WBAL-TV. There was a camera and receiver in front of both the instructor, Mrs. Barbara Long, at the studio and her students at the school. In that way, Mrs. Long could ask questions and observe her pupils' reactions. On the TV receiver, the split screen—technically known as a "horizontal wipe"—showed both Mrs. Long and the students. Since the program was carried on the station's regular channel, that permitted anyone sitting at home to check up on TV-education at work. After class, the pupils were eager to express their enthusiasm for learning by television. Some spoke of how it would help "sick boys and girls who can't go to school, but are able to read and write and study." One boy remarked: "If this keeps up, they'll have to tell him of the federation's unanimous action yesterday in condemning price and wage controls and rationing, as anti-inflation weapons. Unable to reach the president, Kline sent him a telegram declaring "it is our well-considered and unanimously-approved opinion that price controls at the present time would be a tragic error." Shortly before that Kline speaking just before the convention ended, asked "everyone here to write out a little wire to your Senators and Congressman." Kline asked them to "put in your own words" their opposition to controls. The federation chief-tain told delegates he had reached Leon Keyserling, chief of the president's board of economic visers, by telephone and the serling expressed complete ment with the Bureau's staff. Sustained applause accord passage of the anti-controls tion, and Kline's news of personal efforts to persuade the dent. "Inflation can not be by price, wage and ratio trols," said the resolution, interfer with production, the flexibility of our economy reduce our capacity to output, require huge administrative staffs and invite black kets." In his wire to Mr. Truman said: "No group is more deter back from a week of in the El Paso, Tex., area, available for comment.

Center Ana 2420 After class, the pupils were eager to express their enthusiasm for learning by television. Some spoke of how it would help "sick boys and girls who can't go to school, but are able to read and write and study." One boy remarked: "If this keeps up, they'll have one teacher teaching ten classes." Charter Heslep, chief of the Atomic Energy Commission's radio and television branch, felt it would be a valuable means of instruction in fields relating to atomic energy now that much material on the subject has been declassified. Interest in the method also was shown by representatives of the armed services and the U.S. Department of Education and delegates from several Eastern cities who attended the clinic. However, some TV producers saw hitches. They said "intellectual actors" and "TV school-marms" would be needed to add showmanship to teaching. Plans were made to set up a Middle Atlantic states television council, made up of representatives from the Philadelphia-Baltimore-Washington area, to develop and improve educational programs. Representatives of television stations appeared enthusiastic even though such programs are on a non profit basis. Stations normally provide the air time and schools the program with any additional costs shared among them.

Kline then repeated the federation stand that controls retard production. The federation turned down a southern Democrat's plea that "we say something kind about our government, by passing a resolution thanking the late President Roosevelt, President Truman and members of Congress for establishing stable markets and fair farm prices."
