Controlled
Faroe Islands
To Decide On
Denmark Rule
Copenhagen, Denmark, Sept. 17,
CUP)—The Lagting (county coun-
cil) of the Faroe Islands, which
have a population of approximately
25,000, will meet Sept. 21 to decide
whether the 21 islands should be-
come a republic or remain a part
of Denmark.
The people, who live on 17 of
the islands, were divided almost
evenly on the question of inde-
pendence. The results, of a pleb-
iscite showed that 5,660 favored
a clean break with Denmark, which
has owned the islands since 1386.
Danish government proposals
giving the islands a greater mea-
sure of autonomy, but still re-
taining the crown, received 5,500
votes. „
Another arip ballots were cast
against the Danish proposal, but
these citizens added that they did
not favor a break with Denmark.
These votes were declared illegal.
3 Nationalist
Army Officers
Are Executed
Peiping, Sept. 17, (UP)—Three
nationalist army generals were ex-
ecuted in Harbin last week for at- j
tempting to lead a gigantic plot to
take control of the city, belated
dispatches from official commun-
ist headquarters in Harbin said
today.
They had planned an armed up-
vising within the city itself, the
ispatch said.
Communist leaders said the re-
volt was sponsored by Generalis-
simo Chiang Kai-Shek and Gen.
I,u Li-Ming, commander of the na-
tionalist forces in Manchuria.
Fragmentary information received
here indicated the uprising was
scheduled for Aug. 28 but the
plot was discovered two days be-
fore that.
Mass arrests within the 48-hour
deadline successfully blocked the
plot.
Names of the alleged leaders
were Gen. Chiang Pen-Fei, Gen.
Li Ming Hsin, and Gen. Chu It-
akang.

Texas Federation
Music Clubs| Had
Board Meeting-
Dr. Lena Milam of Beaumont
and Mrs. R. E. Wendland of Tem-
ple were nominated for national
board member and member-at-
large, respectively by the direct-
ors of the Tsxas Federation of
Music Clubs at the annual board
meeting Saturday in Hotel Texas.
Nominated for Lone Star dis-
trict president was Miss Inez Ru-
dy of Bowie. Final elections for
the offices will be held at the bi-
enial meeting of the national fed-
eration at Detroit in April 1947.
Two state offices were filled
with the election of Mrs. W. Scott
Dougherty of McAllen as auditor
and • Mrs. J. B. Young of Kerrville
as historian.
The 50 federation officers at-
tending the meeting passed a reso-
lution in favor of the “adoption”
of a Belgium war orphan, a pro-
ject which will be sponsored by the
Lone Star District, combining Ok-
lahoma and Texas.
Sponsorship of a “tag day” in
each town where there is,a fede-
rated club was • urged by Mrs.
Wendland, state war service ex-
tension chairman. Proceeds from
the “tag day” go t^ financing the
federation program of supplying
musical instruments and instruc-
tion to occupation troops abroad
and wounded veterans in hospitals
in the states. Mrs. Wendland re-
ported that $20,000 was raised
last year through the “tag day”
program, with Fort Worth contro-
buting $1,500.
Announcement was made of a
cash prize of $10 which will be
awarded by Mrs. Claude J. Den-
nis of Dallas, state junior counsel-
lor, to the district obtaining the
greatest number of new junior
clubs during the present admini-
stration. A similar award will be
made by Mrs. Sam Seay of Am-
arillo, state chairman of choir ex-
tension, to the district federat-
ing the greatest number of church
choirs.
An invitation from Beaumont to
hold the state convention there
April 9-12, 1947, was accepted by
the federation.
Among the speakers at the af-
ternoon session were Mrs. Fred
Gillette, Fort Worth, national
chairman of student musicians
contests; Dr. Wilfred C. Bain, Den-
ton, member of the NTSTC music
department; Dr. T. Smith McCork-
le, Ft. Worth, head of the TCU
music department; Dr. Fred Gealy,
Dallas, of SMU School of Theology;
Dr. Forrest H. Heeren of Denton,
and W. J. Marsh, Fort Worth.

Map above shows plan for par-

Anglo-American Cabinet Com-
mittee. Palestine would be divid-

tral-government districts, the
last-named being under strong
British control, with little au-
tonomy for the separate Arab
and Jewish areas. Jewish prov-
ince would include some 1500
square miles, nearly twice the
size of New Jersey.

UN Delegates
Oppose Soviet
Row Over Greece
Lake Success, N. Y., Sept. 17,
(UP)—Thirty-seven year old An-
j drei Gromoyko of Russia today in-
herited the presidency of the Unit-
ed Nations Security -Council and
the dubious honor of presiding ov-
er the defeat of his effort to in-
dict British-Greek policy in the
Balkans.
Dtlegates lined up almost unan-
imously against the Soviet propo-
sal to censure Britain for main-
taining troops li' Greece and to
demand specific concessions from
the Greek Government.
Some ji them conceded privately
that even if Gromyko forces them
to vote down the Russian proposal,
his objective will have been part-
ly won. They contended that the
Russian delegate and Ukrainian
foreign minister Dmitri Manuil-
sky, who brought the charges a-
gainst Greece and Britain before
the council, had succeeded in us-
ing the days old debate to obtain
wide publicity for their allegations
against Greek and British activi-
ties in the Soviet-dominated Bal-
kans.

Washington, Sept. 17, (UP)r
Govemment experts warned today
that the sugar shortage will plague
housewives well into 1948 and that
rationing probably will have to
continue for another year.
They feel it will be next spring
at the earliest before home and
industrial users can even hope for
larger rations.
The present acute shortage—
there is not enough sugar available
to honor all valid ration coupons
—resulted primarily from World
War II’s disruption of world pro-
duction. Strikes at home and a-
broad have added to the problem.
The scarcity is illustrated by the
fact that the country, through
necessity, is now consuming only
73 pounds of sugar annually per
person. Before the war, per capi-
ta consumption averaged 102 pounds
or 7,000,000 tons.
