Greece, Philippines Block Partition of Palestine

UNITED NATIONS HALL, Flushing, N. Y. (UP)—The program to partition Palestine suffered a serious setback in the United Nations general assembly today when Greece announced it would vote against the plan and the Philippines indicated its vote also would be in the opposition. The development threatened to leave partition five votes short of the two-thirds majority needed for final assembly approval, unless its supporters succeeded overnight in rounding up additional votes. Greece abstained yesterday when the Palestine committee approved partition by a vote of 25 to 13—one short of the two-thirds majority. The Philippines was absent. Greece delegate Vassili Dendramis rocked the tense and packed assembly hall with the announcement that the vote of Greece would go to the Arabs in their angry fight against partition. The Greek position was particularly significant in view of Greece's constant support of the United States in all issues, large and small, in the UN. The United States, together with Russia, is author of the UN partition plan.

Gendarmes Use Tear Gas To Disperse French Strikers

PARIS, Nov. 26. (UP)—Thousands of strikers marching on police headquarters in Lyon today were scattered by tear gas in a flareup of violence in the communist-led strike wave which had all but paralyzed France. A call for a general strike of railroad workers fell short of realization. Some trains were running in and out of Paris, although nationwide transport was crippled. Premier Robert Schuman's government decided to retreat before the "legitimate" demands of French labor for wage increases. Schuman expected to announce his program to combat the strikes in a nationwide radio broadcast tonight. The government ordered 20 Russians expelled from France. Interior ministry officials said they were active in fomenting the disorders which began with a communist-led strike and riot at Marseille.

Traffic Shows Sharp Increase In Florida Highway Survey

TALLAHASSEE, Fla., Nov. 26. (UP)—Automobiles rolled over Florida's highways at the rate of 33,922 per day during October, the state road department said today after a check of traffic recorders on main arteries.

The exceptions were U. S. 92 east of Plant City, which showed a one percent drop, and on Florida 559 north of Auburndale, where traffic took an unexplained slump of 42 percent.

Eccles' Inflation Theories Puzzles Congress, Writer

By FREDERICK C. OTHMAN UP Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Nov. 26. (UP)—Come with me. Brave friends, to never-never land, where the more money you've got the less you have. And the only way to be prosperous is get rid of the extra cash. Don't spend it. Set a match to it. I hope Marriner S. Eccles, the good gray chairman of the Federal Reserve Board, won't be sore about this. But I didn't understand him any better than some of the puzzled congressmen on the joint Economic Committee. The law makers called him in to learn what they could about the inflation that's plaguing us all. Eccles hooked his tortoise shell glasses over his ears and said first we had to know what caused it. He said—and I know I heard him right—that the more money the government borrows, the more money the taxpayers have to spend. This sends up prices. And if the government will pay back the money it borrowed from the banks, there will be less money for the rest of us. Thus lowering prices. Don't Ask Me Kindly do not ask me why. Address your enquiries to Chairman Eccles who has made a study of these esoteric matters. The more he studies 'em, the gloomier he gets. Something, says he, has got to be done before business goes boom and we're selling apples to each other. Anybody who thinks differently, he adds, isn't only blind, but also foolish. Eccles sat there in a big leather chair, at ease, spelling off for the senators and representatives all the unpleasant things he believes we should do to keep American dollars from turning into Jap yen. First off, he said, the revenuers have got to collect the biggest possible income taxes, so the people won't have somuch money in their pockets. Then the government must use the taxes to pay off its debts, so there won't be so much money to go into the pockets. And finally—weep with me, all ye who don't understand money with extra zeros on it—Eccles said: 1. We've got to work harder and longer to produce more stuff. 2. We must be prohibited from hitting the boss for a raise in pay. 3. The Agriculture Department should quit slipping billions to farmers to hold up the price of food. 4. The treasury must high pressure us into buying more savings bonds. 5. Bank credits must be restricted and the government has got to quit guaranteeing mortgages on houses that sell for twice what they ought to. Not Sure About Loans Sen. Robert A. Taft of Ohio, the chairman, wasn't so sure that banks were loaning too much money. Sen. Ralph E. Flanders of Vt., wondered about getting tough with housing loans. Eccles said easy money for high priced houses was about the worst piece of inflation we have. He said the government must take responsibility for a large part of this lending spree. To many people, he added, are buying too many houses with nothing down and $80 a month for the next 30 years. "You're evidently not living with your mother-in-law," remarked Sen. Flanders. "No," snapped Eccles. "And the fellow who gets slapped with a foreclosure may have to go back to living with her." He said we might as well not kid ourselves. We can't have full employment and low prices, too. Not unless the government regulates everything. Sen. Flanders said that sounded discouraging. Eccles said it wasn't as discouraging as the prospect of letting the boom run its course. And if I though it would help, I'd light my cigar with a dollar bill if I had (1) a cigar and (2) a dollar.

Jaycees Plan Special Awards

The Junior Chamber of Commerce of Coral Gables will launch a program of recognition for individual or group contributions to government, President Benjamin W. Turner announced today. A committee will be chosen which will present Good Government Awards to those who have fostered improvements in Gables government, Turner said. The object of the program, according to Turner, is to "place the good deeds of citizens on a pedestal for all to see."

Chapman Field Use Mandatory

(Continued from Page One) been advised to approach the city on the matter by the WAA. The city manager has also asked the government for "right of entry" to the tract which would give the city interim control until final disposition is made. It is possible that if right of entry is granted that the city could eventually gain the acreage at no cost by virtue of already having possession.

Wage Talk Set For Friday by City Fathers

(Please turn to Page Two) clared unconstitutional last week by the Florida Supreme Court. If the commission declines to place a special tax on tobacco, the logical step seems to be the raising of bus fares. Officials would be naturally hesitant to predict such a move because of the danger of amusing a run on bus tokens at the current price. Petitions for salary increases have been received from the fire and police departments, bus drivers and the parks and parkways employees. While city hall workers have made no formal wage pleas, City Manager McIlwain has indicated that any raises would include all employes.

3 Ponceites Sent To Planning Confab
