Critical Shortage Of Manpower Due In Agriculture EL CENTRO UP—There will be a critical shortage of manpower in agriculture in another year. Undersecretary of Labor Michael Galvin warns. The scarcity will be partly relieved by Mexican Nationals, being brought into this country under a new federal program which Galvin says will mean the end of the wetback era. He told his views to a newsman yesterday. For years wetbacks (Mexicans in this country illegally) have flooded farm labor markets of Southwestern states. The AFL national farm labor union struck Imperial valley ranches last spring in protest against employing wetbacks. Under the new federal program, it is illegal to employ them. Galvin is inspecting the five U.S. reception centers for Mexican nationals which have processed 135,000 laborers since Aug. 16. The Mexicans are housed and fed at the centers and given a health examination. Then they are transported to farm jobs. The centers and the numbers of nationals processed are: Harlingen, Tex., 45,000; El Paso, 43,000; Imperial, Calif., 23,000; Eagle Pass, Tex., 15,000; and Nogales, Ariz., 6,600. The nationals are brought from five migratory centers in Mexico. There they are screened for Congressmen Hunt For Killers of US Army Officer HOME GP—Two U.S. Congressmen live in Italy looking for ways to prosecute the wartime killers of Merl William Holohan, a behind-the-lines American operative; authoritative sources said last night. They were also said to be checking reports that the Defense Department hushed up the Holohan case until it found out the story was about to be published in a magazine. The Congressmen are Reps. W. Sterling Cole (R-N.Y.) and William E. Hess (R-Ohlo). Both are members of the House Armed Services Committee, and a qualified source said the committee gave them confidential instructions to investigate the Holohan case. Neither man would confirm or deny these reports of their mission to Italy. Holohan was killed in northern Italy while serving behind the German lines with two other members of his O.S.S. unit. The Defense Department has accused the other two, former Lt. Aldo Icardi of Pittsburgh and former Sgt. Carl Lo Dolce of Rochester, N.Y., of complicity in his murder. Both were honorably discharged from the army before the circumstances of Holohan's death were discovered. Under military law neither could thereafter NAVY BOWLERS—Winners "lies" Bowling Contest at the San Diego, Calif., pose with are serving with the Fleet Diego. Winners are: (left trician John C.

NEWS IN BRIEF By The Associated Press WASHINGTON—President Truman told the Russians today they "utterly foolish" to oppose nations banded together to seek peace and justice." Speaking on the anniversary of the United Nations, the President declared: "I hope the time will not be far away when the leaders of the Soviet Union and their satellites will see that it is utterly foolish to oppose the united will of the other peoples of the world for peace and justice." UNITED NATIONS, N. Y.—It would sound a little like mockery to wish the United Nations a happy birthday today with the east-west cold-war as intense as ever, U.N. and communist forces battling in Korea, the whole Moslem world in turmoil, and atomic exposions rendling the air with increasing frequency. That is the main reason, perhaps, that this sixth anniversary of charter day—the date the U.N. charter came into effect—is being observed in solemn declaration and prayer rather than celebrated in festive ceremonies. NEW YORK—Leaders of rebel stevedores ordered mass picking at every pier in the vast New York port today to greet the final peace efforts of the governments' top labor trouble-shooter, Dee M. Mills, the nation's leading federal mediator, rushed here from Washington last night, with the wildcat dock strike paralyzing its two-state port and crippling other Atlantic harbors. WASHINGTON—Congress will get a chance to decide whether the United States should have a full diplomatic representative at the Vatican, church-state of Roman Catholicism in Italy. The White House announced yesterday that President Truman is not going to offer Gen. Mark Clark a recess appointment. Press Secretary Joseph Short said "it is more satisfactory to Clark" to await Congress' action. WASHINGTON—Price director Michael V. DiSalle said today he most emphatically do not intend to remove price controls from beef and beef cattle. On the contrary, he added, new enforcement measures are under study. WASHINGTON—The $295,000,000 radar system for warning of possible aerial attack against the United States is nearly completed, Gen. Hoyt Vandenberg said today. WASHINGTON—Backers of Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower apparently have agreed not to make any effort to oust Guy G. Gaelson as chairman of the Republican National committee. And evidence accumulated that President Truman may not be ready to kick a successor to William M. Boyle Jr., when the Democratic National committee meets here next week to accept Boyle's resignation as chairman. Influential Republicans who are getting ready launch a movement to draft Eisenhower for the 1952 presidential nomination were reported shying away from any move to replace Brielson.

Give your friends time to answer How often have you had someone hang up just as you answered the telephone? It isn't always possible, you know, to get to the telephone the moment it rings—the folks you are calling may be out enjoying their garden, or busy in some distant part of the house. You'll reach them more often...and avoid the disappointment of an incomplete call if you give them a full minute to answer. Faster Long Distance service is yours, if you give the operator the out-of-town telephone number, rather than just the name and address of the party you are calling. You'll not only save your time...but calling by number means better service for everyone, especially now when long distance lines are carrying so many urgent industrial and military calls.
