An immediate curfew was ordereJ intil lurther notice. The powerful explosion was believed caused by a bomb or bombs planted by the liagana Jewish secret nnderground or- ganisation as a counter-stroke to the British military roundup of Jews In Palestine. Army and government officials v/ere buried in debris when the ex- plosion went of: with a shattering roar which smashed a whole wing of the hotel and wrecked a nearby YMCA building. * * « THE ATTACK was the most dar- ing ever carried out by the Jewish underground. The King David ho- tel is the heart of the British mili- tary administration. It resembles a fortress more than a hotel with | a perimeter of machine gun posts, barbed wire entanglements, sand- bag barricades and concrete road blocks. By some means not yet cer- tain the Jewkh resistance mem- bers apparently penetrated this security network and planted powerful mines in the basement of the hotel. The King David explosion followed p few minutes %n earlier explosion believed to have been caused by the blowing up of a British armored car. Whether this incident was connected with the King David ex- plosion was not Immediately cer- tain. • « « NEWSPAPERMEN AND specta- tors had gathered in the vicinity of the hotel and military police were investigating tiie first blast when suddenly the ground was rocked by an extremely heavy blast in the King David headquarters. Soiree of officials were wounded and ourled in the wreckage. Pas- sersby were shovered by flying glass and debris. The YMCA was turned into an emergency first aid station despite its own shattered walls and wrecked interior. All persons leaving the hotel and the YMCA, Included those who were wounded, were seized imme- diately by the police for question- 'ng. MEAD SIGNING MAY SUBPOENA Threaten to Close All Detroit Plants By United Press DETROIT—The Foremen's Asso- ciation of America said today it would close 500 plants in a city-wide strike Aug. 1 if price controls have not been re-established by that time Robert H. Keys, FA A president, said the executive board of the as- sociation voted unanimously to call the strike if prices are not down to the "working man's level" by Aug. 1. The work stoppage would involve 22,000 members in Detroit's 186 FAA chapters. Keys said both President Truman rand Congress would be notified im- mediately of the strike decision. ^'The inability of Congress to pro- tect the American citizen makes it necessary for oiganized labor to protest unanimously." Keys said. He expressed belief that bo^h or- ganized and unorganized labor would wgree with his association's plan. Meanwhile, the association's Ford •Motor Co. chapter was expected to file a 30-day notice today of intent to strike. Rockford Youth In Narrow Escape ROCKFORD—The Rouge river at Rockford was the scene of a narrow escape Sunday v/hen Hoyte Eadie, 13, caught his elbow under the gate of the dam and was unable to free himself. He was rescued by Donald and Clifford Gray. Grand Rapids, John Chapman and James Detmers of Rockford. The Chapman boy, notic- ing that his companion failed to come up after the dive, dived in an attempt to free Eadie's arm. Un- able to do so, 'le called the aid of the Grand Rapids men while Det- mers dived to aid Eadie. Donald and Clifford Gray, fully clothed, succeeded in releasing Ea- die's arm from the gate. Cpl.

"It's this or nothing," was the attitude of the congres- sional leaders as they went to their weekly White House meeting with Mr. Truman. They felt the new bill worked out in a Senate-House conference would provide a workable ai|ti-inflation program, and that a second OPA veto would mean no further price legislation at this session. The compllcp.ied compromise on future price controls still must be approved by both the Senate and house, and thero were indications of some trouble aaead. Even- the con- ferees who wrot/? it were not sure of the meaning of every detail. Thev meet later today to clarify lan- guage in the measure; particularly with reference to the respective powers of the secretary of agricul- ture and the proposed three-mar. decontrol board. » » A HIGH ADMINISTRATION of- ficial .predicted Mr. Truman woulu sign the completed bill, but still not depend on it as the sole method of combatting inflation. The official r.redlcted the Mdmlnlstratlon would take several other steps to keep aown prices, fie declined to go into details. Senate Democratic Leader Alben W. Barkley, Ky., thought the com- promise measure, vesting broaa powers to life price celling In thF special board, would provide effec- tive controls. Chairman Robert F Wagner, D.. N. Y., of the Senate banking committee also believed "It will work out satisfactorily." * » WAGNER TOLD A reporter that the President was asked over the weekend to give thought to which men he will appoint to the key de- control board, "if he signs the bill.' The Senate and House may tak^ up the conference report Tuesday. Probable storm center of opposition will be the provision to re-establish l-rice ceilings on meats, grain, milk and other dairy products, soy beans and cottonseed on Aug. 20, unless the three-man aecontrol board finds supplies adequate and specifically orders OPA to drop the commodities from their ceiling schedules. Sen. Kenneth S. Wherry, R., Neb., expressed "strong opposl- sitlon" to any move to re-estab- lish meat ceilings. He declared that the Senate overwhelmingly voted to ban meat controls and that he would carry his opposi- sitlon to the floor. Pen. Robert A. Taft, R., O., in,a radio address (ABC) renewed his attack on the President's veto of Congress' first attempt to write CPA continuation legislation.

By United Press NANKING Heavy "fighting re- ported along Communist-held rail lines in north China. Indicated to- day that Generalissimo Chiang Kai-r shek—despairing of peace efforts- had ordered an all-out offensive to drive Communists from their stra- tegic strongholds into the remote western mountains. Communist sources admitted the loss of "many strategic towns"—nine of thean along the Important Tslnana - Tsingtao railway — and said Nationalist troops were pushing northward along a 150-mile front parallel- ing the Yangtae river. A major battle appeared to be shaping up in north Kiangsu prov- ince. Communists reported a new government offensive there which .they said was designed to isolate Red troops in a small area north of the Nanking-Shanghai railroad. NATIONALIST QUARTERS said 120,000 Communists in north Ki angsu were "stepping up" their of- fensive against Luho and Yangchow. The official Chinese central news agency reported large-scale fighting in the area and said Communists wanted the two cities to use as springtooards for attacks against Shanghai and Nanking. Communists said also that gov- ernment troops were concentrating planes and tanks for their north- ward drive and that "L7 armies" iiad captured two cities northeast of Nanking, were besieging Jukao, 70 miles to the north and "threaten- ing" Tienohang and Kaoyu. • • • DETAILS OF the reported Na- tionalist drive were lacking, but the success of such an offensive would free the south flank of the lateral Lungbai railway (connecting Shang- hai, Nanking and Tatung), and pro-" tect the east flank of the Tientsin- Pukow rail line—as well as the north flank of the Shanghai-Nanking rail- way.

In fact, Barkley stated categori-cally that he would resign If Pres-ident Truman vetoed the present OPA bill.

He said he was tired of living on e treadmill, that the present OPA bill was the oe&t he could get out ol the Senate, and If the President wouldn't accept it, he would resign as majority leader.

The serious and protracted ill-ness of the Senator's wife and the recent disclosure that his son was employed by the Erie Basin war profiteers have Increased Bark-ley's already heavy burden. Senate friends hope, liowever, tha t either the price-control problem will be ironed out or tliat Barkley will re-consider.

New Deal Lobbyist

EX-FC Chairman Larry Fly was once a stickier for many thing:

Now he is a lobbyist for several op-posite things. When he was head of the Federal Communications Commission he barred the "Pot o ' Gold" program from the air be-cause it was a lottery. Now he is r.ttorney for the "Pot of Qold."

This week. Fly has turned anoth er unique somersault. As PC chair-man, he was strong against grant-ing radio licenses to newspapers He did not believe in monopolies of opinion. Also Fly's best fr iend for twelve long years happened to be Franklin Roosevelt. The late President elevated him from a low-ly lawyer to various positions of trust and power.

This week, however, Fly is act-ing as attorney for John Swing, Louisiana newspaper and radio op-erator, who was one of FDR's bitter-est enemies in the south. Bwing .helped lead the move to steal Roose-•velt electors in the electoral col-lege. He owns the Shreveport Times, the Monroe, La., Morning World and the Monroe News-Star, ftatlon KTHS in Hot Springs, Ark., and lists himself as owning sta-tions KTBS and KWKH In Shreve-port.

The latter of these Is one of the most powerful ai the country—50,000 watts. Despite this, Ewing is now applying for another JKMNO-hvatt station in New Orleans, and ii> boasting that with the influential Larry Fly behind him he will get it. It will be interesting to see if FCC members oow before their for-mer chairman.

Note—Ewing has retained Clark Salmon, a New Orletns New Deal-er, as a front.

By EL1AV SIMON (United PraM Staff Correupondeot)

JERUSALEM—A tremendous ex-plosion today wiecked British mili-tary headquarters in the King David hotel in downtown Jerusalem today, causing casualties estimated at six dead and scores wounded.

An immediate curfew was ordereJ intil lurther notice.

The powerful explosion was believed caused by a bomb or bombs planted by the liagana Jewish secret nnderground or-ganisation as a counter-stroke to the British military roundup of Jews In Palestine.

Army and government officials v/ere buried in debris when the ex-plosion went of: with a shattering roar which smashed a whole wing of the hotel and wrecked a nearby YMCA building.

THE ATTACK was the most dar-ing ever carried out by the Jewish underground. The King David ho-tel is the heart of the British mili-tary administration. It resembles a fortress more than a hotel with | a perimeter of machine gun posts, barbed wire entanglements, sand-bag barricades and concrete road blocks.

By some means not yet cer-tain the Jewkh resistance mem-bers apparently penetrated this security network and planted powerful mines in the basement of the hotel.

The King David explosion followed p few minutes %n earlier explosion believed to have been caused by the blowing up of a British armored car. Whether this incident was connected with the King David ex-plosion was not Immediately cer-tain.

Threaten to Close All Detroit Plants By United Press

DETROIT—The Foremen's Asso-ciation of America said today it would close 500 plants in a city-wide strike Aug. 1 if price controls have not been re-established by that time

Robert H. Keys, FA A president, said the executive board of the as-sociation voted unanimously to call the strike if prices are not down to the "working man's level" by Aug. 1.

The work stoppage would involve 22,000 members in Detroit's 186 FAA chapters.

Keys said both President Truman rand Congress would be notified im-mediately of the strike decision.

^'The inability of Congress to pro-tect the American citizen makes it necessary for oiganized labor to protest unanimously." Keys said. He expressed belief that bo^h or-ganized and unorganized labor would wgree with his association's plan.

Meanwhile, the association's Ford •Motor Co. chapter was expected to file a 30-day notice today of intent to strike.

Urge Truman to Sign OPA Compromise

WASHINGTON — ( U P ) — Congressional leaders were scheduled today to urge President Truman to sign the com-promise bill that would revive OPA for one year.

"It 's this or nothing," was the at t i tude of the congres-sional leaders as they went to their weekly White House meeting with Mr. Truman. They felt the new bill worked out in a Senate-House conference would provide a workable ai|ti-inflation program, and that a second OPA veto would mean no fu r the r price legislation a t this session.

The compllcp.ied compromise on future price controls still must be approved by both the Senate and house, and thero were indications of some trouble aaead. Even- the con-ferees who wrot/? it were not sure of the meaning of every detail. Thev meet later today to clarify lan-guage in the measure; particularly with reference to the respective powers of the secretary of agricul-ture and the proposed three-mar. decontrol board.

» • » A HIGH ADMINISTRATION of-

ficial .predicted Mr. Truman woulu sign the completed bill, but still not depend on it as the sole method of combatting inflation. The official r.redlcted the Mdmlnlstratlon would take several other steps to keep aown prices, fie declined to go into details.

Senate Democratic Leader Alben W. Barkley, Ky., thought the com-promise measure, vesting broaa powers to life price celling In thF special board, would provide effec-tive controls. Chairman Robert F Wagner, D.. N. Y., of the Senate banking committee also believed "It will work out satisfactorily."

* » • WAGNER TOLD A reporter that

the President was asked over the weekend to give thought to which men he will appoint to the key de-control board, "if he signs the bill.'

The Senate and House may tak^ up the conference report Tuesday. Probable storm center of opposition will be the provision to re-establish l-rice ceilings on meats, grain, milk and other dairy products, soy beans and cottonseed on Aug. 20, unless the three-man aecontrol board finds supplies adequate and specifically orders OPA to drop the commodities from their ceiling schedules.

Sen. Kenneth S. Wherry, R., Neb., expressed "strong opposl-sitlon" to any move to re-estab-lish meat ceilings. He declared that the Senate overwhelmingly voted to ban meat controls and that he would carry his opposi-sitlon to the floor. Pen. Robert A. Taft, R., O., in,a

radio address (ABC) renewed his attack on the President's veto of Congress' first attempt to write CPA continuation legislation.

Vlllarroel's troubled leadership of Bolivia ended as it began—in revo-lution and bloodshed, on Dec. 20, 1943, when he toppled President En-rique Penaranda In a military coup.

The dictator-minded Villarroei was wounded gravely when the siege army stormed the presidentia' palace a t 1:30 p. m. Sunday. Fanati-cal revolutionaries found him alive and hurled his body from a bal-cony.

By Uni t ed P r e s s

NANKING — Heavy "fighting re-ported along Communist-held rail lines in north China. Indicated to-day that Generalissimo Chiang Kai-r shek—despairing of peace e f fo r t s -had ordered an all-out offensive to drive Communists from their stra-tegic strongholds into the remote western mountains.

Communist sources admitted the loss of "many strategic towns"—nine of thean along the Important Tslnana - Tsingtao railway — and said Nationalist troops were pushing northward along a 150-mile f ront parallel-ing the Yangtae river.

A major battle appeared to be shaping up in north Kiangsu prov-ince. Communists reported a new government offensive there which .they said was designed to isolate Red troops in a small area north of the Nanking-Shanghai railroad.

NATIONALIST QUARTERS said

120,000 Communists in north Ki angsu were "stepping up" their of-fensive against Luho and Yangchow.

The official Chinese central news agency reported large-scale fighting in the area and said Communists wanted the two cities to use as springtooards for attacks against Shanghai and Nanking.

Communists said also that gov-ernment troops were concentrating planes and tanks for their north-ward drive and that "L7 armies" iiad captured two cities northeast of Nanking, were besieging Jukao, 70 miles to the north and "threaten-ing" Tienohang and Kaoyu.

• • •

DETAILS OF the reported Na-tionalist drive were lacking, but the success of such an offensive would free t he south f lank of the lateral Lungbai railway (connecting Shang-hai, Nanking and Tatung), and pro-" tect the east flank of the Tientsin-Pukow rail line—as well as the north flank of the Shanghai-Nanking rail-way.

MONDAY, J U L Y a , 1&46 VOLOMK M — NUMBCS i l l

Misbehaving in Japan Every intelligent American should be concerned over

th« s t a t ement of Lt . Gen. Robert L. Eichelberger t h a t

"there are many indications of a deliberate, a r rogant , bul-lying a t t i t u d e on the part of some of our soldiers" in Japan .

The General warns tha t misconduct mus t be s topped. He calls a t t en t ion to increasing repor ts f r o m all p a r t s of Japan of house-breaking, assaul ts on women, drunkenness ,

thievery and malicious beat ings of Japanese by individuals and groups.

Lindesay P a r r o t t , correspondent of The New York

Times, says t ha t t he General 's complairnt officially con-f i r m s what most correspondents have known fo r some

time, t h a t t he new young d r a f t e e in J a p a n has "exhibi ted qualities of juvenile delinquency and vandalism never dem-onstrated by the combat troops who f o u g h t in the South-

w«rt Pac i f ic war . " He asse r t s t h a t moat of the cr imes a r e committed by soldiers who "never heard a shot f i red by t h e enemy."

The good name of the United Staites, and ha people, is involved in t he misbehavior of American soldiers. Whi le it was legi t imate to kill t h e Japanese soldier, in the course of combat , t h e responsibility of th i s coun t ry changed when

t h e enemy sur rendered . The mi s t r ea tmen t of conquered people by our soldiers should not be tolerated by the com-

manding o f f i ce r s of t h e A r m y and the i r e f f o r t s to res to re discipline, th rough t h e vigorous punishment of guil ty of-

fenders , should have t h e support and t h e applause of every intell igent Amer ican .

Speed Research On Civilian Atom By OnHa* Praia

WASHINGTON — The Army's Manhattan District, which devel-oped the ato:nlc bomb, has au-t h o r e d e s tab l jhment of three laJ |* research laboratories to en-courage application of atomic en-ergy for civil ian use.

Under the research plan, scien-tlsta representing universities and civilian laboratories will be trained In the drrelopraent of atomic ener-

gy and t h e n returned t o their i n -siltuttons to engage to further re-search in the fields of n e d k i n e . t n -(•ustry, biology and other sohjects.

Army sources said the civilian scientists will be taught how to construct and use laboratory In-struments needed to handle a t o n i c energy. The Manhattan dis tr ic t also plans to i tnd equipment to the scientists so that they c a n con-tinue their research after training periods have been comoleted.

Truman to Decide Fate of Normandie

W ASHINOTON — Fate of the once-proud French liner Normandie, rusting at a Brooklyn pier, today was up to President Truman.

The Maritime cotrmission an-nounced that if the President ap-proves. the 83.000-ton luxury liner

will be sold for scrap. The United States seized the

Normandie in 1940 when German panzer divisions overran France. Plans to convert the ship Into a mil-itary transport were abandoned when it caught fire and capsized. The United States recently agreed to pay France 814,500,000 for the lin-er's loss.
