Quite a traffic jam at the State
Fair of Texas Saturday. Saturday
we wrote about the parking lots
going up to 75c for parking but
Saturday we heard one a little
better. Some people from Hillsboro
got to the football game near the
end of the first quarter. They
said they finally had to pay five
dollars for a spot to leave their
car. Another couple came in about
the same time, said they got in a
traffic jam and did not move for
40 minutes. Those who left home
early were the lucky ones.
Mr. and Mrs. Ira Sutolett of Fair-
*ont, Minn., stopped by Ennis
's week end for a visit with
theiV brother-in-law, Ivan Dycus,
manager of the Chamber of Com-
mence. Mr. Sublett is a designing
Engineer for the Fairmont Motors
Company, manufacturers of rail-
road equipment.
They enjoyed a visit to the State
Fair of Texas Sunday and this
morning continued on their way
to Mexico City.
There has been much discussion
in Ennis about parking meters.
Some are in favor and some are
still bitterly oposed. Here is a sug-
gestion offered in The News letter
sent out by the East Texas Cham-
ber of Commerce: “Many East
Texas towns have installed park-
ing meters to help solve congested
traffic and parking situations. In
most towns city officials, after
getting a cross section of opinion
of citizens in favor of the plan,
(installed meters. Others have
done so without sampling omnion
or conducting an educational cam^
aign. The city of Victoria can-
&ssed surrounding towns and sent
questionnaire to 5,000 county
izens/ requesting opinion on in-
itiation of parking meters. Re-
lts: majority favorable and a re-
ictant city commission put in the
meters. Such a survey is com-
mended—traffic and parking head-
aches may be avoided later.”

Ennis Odd Fellows
In Houston for
Grand Encampment
H. H. Lummus and J. H. Stev-
ens have gone to Houston to at-
tend the three day’s session of the
Ninety-Fourth Annual Encamp-
ment of the Texas Department of
the Independent Order of Odd
Fellows which convenes at the
Rice Hotel through Tuesday.
(William J. T. Ford of Houston,
secretary-treasurer of the program
committee, delivered the welcome
address at 8 p.m. Sunday which
opened the memorial sei vices for
the deceased members. Walter B..
Funderburgh of Tyler, Colonel Ad-
juntantl of the Texas Department,
gave the response.
Men’s competitive degree teams
from Houston, Dallas, Fort Worth
and Corpus Christi staged their
program also Sunday.
IOOF dignitaries attending were
L. J. Lane of Fort Worth, Grand
Patriarch for Texas, A. M. Mc-
Laughlin, Tyler, Department Com-
mander, and Mrs. Dorothy Pasley,
President of the Ladies Auxiliary.
Budenz, former editor of the Com-
munist Daily Worker.
Budenz, a parly member who re-
nounced communism, said in an
address over Radio Station WJ'R
last night that “tl^e American
Communists are tis much a fifth
column for Russia as the quislings
were for Nazi Germany.”
They take their orders from a
man “who is an agent of the
Kremlin,” he asserted.
Budenz, now an instructor in
the economics department of the
University of Notre Dame and
Fbrdham University, said Russia’s
program calls first for a “war
of nerves” and then, “when Russia
feels itself able,” a third world war.
“The destruction of the United
States is the goal of Soviet Rus-
sia,” he declared.
Budenz said he joined the Com-
munist party 10 years ago in the
hope that communism would bring
about some desired changes in A-
merican Democracy but that he
was “disillusioned” after World War
II.
“I learned, at first very reluct-
antly, that Soviet Russia intends
to destroy Britain and the United
States,” he said.
He charged that there is a man,
“who is an agent of the Kremlin
who directs all communist activi-
ties in the United States.”
He described this man as a for-
mer head of the communist inter-
national and “still the boss.”
This man never shows his face,”
he ' added. “Communist leaders
never see him, but they follow his
orders or suggestions implicitly.
The average American communist
never heard of \ him.”
No Change in
Labor Picture
Noticed Today
Disputing parties marked time
today pending a reopening of mar-
itime negotiations, and Hollywood
police prepared for a possible re-
newal of violence following a week
end lull in the 19 day old film
strike.
Spokesmen for the Eastern and
Gulf shipping interests promised
tc arrange an early meeting with
representatives of two maritime un-
ions, on strike since Oct. 1. The
shipowners agreed to resume talks
over the striking unions yielded
on demands that any settlement
be extended to West Coast opera-
tions.
At Hollywood, police feared new
picket line violence after labora-
tory workers of the International
Alliance of Theatrical Stage em-
ployes (AFL) voted to respect
picket lines of the rival confer-
ence of studio unions, also an
AFL affiliate.
Vandenberg
Rebukes Red
Charge on US
Paris, Oet. 14, (UP)—Sen. Arth-
ur Vandenberg, R., Mich., sharply
rebuked Riussia today for attacking
the American peace-making mo-
tives and announced the United
States would vote against giving
the Soviet Uhion $300,000,000 re-
parations from Finland.
Vandenberg, provoked by critical
remarks by Foreign Minister K. V.
Kisselev of Byelo-Russia, interrup-
ted his prepared appeal for lower
'Finish reparations to say the
United States was tired of being
attacked constantly like a defend-
ant in court.
“In some previous speeches today
the motives of the United States
in this matter have been attacked
in a manner with which the con-
ference is entirely too familiar,”
Vandenberg said.
“Mr. President, the United States
delegation will leave its motives
to the -verdict of history in con-
nection with the winning of the
war and writing of a just peace.
We decline to plead as defendants
among allies whom we have given
every ounce of cooperation in blood
and treasure of which a great na-
tion is capable.”
Vandenberg was answering Kiss-
elev’s remarks that “certain cir-
cles in the United States dislike
the friendship which has grown up
between the Soviet Union and
Finland since the war and are
trying to sow discord and distrust. ’

Stilwell’s Ashes
To Be Scattered
Over Pacific Ocean
San Francisco, Oct. 14, (UP) —
The ashes of Gen. Joseph W. Stil-
well, hero of the 1942 retreat
from Burma, will be scattered over
the Pacific Ocean Wednesday after
simple, private funeral services at
his Carmel, Cal., home.
Stilwell, 63, Sixth Army Com-
mander known to members of the
Armed Forces over the world as
Vinegar Joe,” died quietly in his
sleep Saturday at Letterman Gen-
eral Hospital. He had failed to
survive an operation for a liver
condition 10-days before.
Yesterday, as guns at the San
Francisco Presidio boomed out a
final salute, Stilwell’s widow an-
nounced that members of the fam-
ily would gather at Llanfair,” the
j general's Carmel residence 86 miles
’ south of here, to participate in
last rites.
At the same time, a C-47 plane
piloted by Maj. Emmett J. Theisen,
Detroit, who carried Stilwell over
the China-Burma-India “Hump”
more than 50 times during the
war, will leave San Francisco with
the ashes.
Theisen was asked by Mrs. Stil-
well to fly this “last mission” be-
cause the generals great affection
for his pilot.
With only crew members aboard,
the C-47 will fly low over “Llan-
fair,” then head West into the
sun and over the Pacific Ocean.
There, Stilwell’s ashes will be scat-
tered on the sea.

“Back into full swing after an
absence of four years, the North
Texas Varsity show began rehear-
sals last night in the men’s gym-
nasium. The production will take
place Thursday and Friday nights,
December 12 and 13.
‘‘This year’s show, “Mood Fanta-

Bill Baker, Tolar,% and Brenda j lQW he Eaid

committee for the first day’s hear-
ings. But committee aides indi-
cated there might be a last-minute
change.
With the congressional elections
only three weeks away, the Senate
campaign investigating committee
also stepped :up its activity. Chair-
man Allen J. Ellender, D„ La.,
said the committee woulcN^meet
later this week to decide whether
to investigate reelection activities
of Sens. Theodore G. Bilbo, D.,
Miss., and Kenneth McKellar, D.,
Tenn.
Complaints before the committee
charged that (1) Bilbo sought to
bar negro voting in the Mississippi
primaries and (2) that too much
money' was spent in Tenessee for
McKeliar's renomination campaign.
Priest said the House hearings
would go into the general extent
of the political activities of the
organizations and were not based
on specific complaints. He said
other groups might come under
committee scrutiny later.
The first organization summon-
ed before the committee, was Am-

French People
Vote for New
Constitution
Paris, Oct. 14, (UP)—(France had
a constitution today for the first
time since the liberation, and Gen.
Charles De Gaulle was established
as a potential political factor de-
spite his failure to prevent adop-
tion of the document in Sunday’s
referendum.
The constitution was adopted by
approximately 1,000,000 votes in
balloting marked by all-time record
abstentions from the polls of 31.2
per cent of the registered voters.
Unofficial returns from metropol-
itan France, North Africa and al-
most all of Corsica showed 9,143,-
010 for the constitution and 8,034,-
067 against. These totals included
official figures of 9,109,21117 for 8,-
046,651 against in metropolitan
France.
Political observers attributed the
strong oposition vote and abstenr
tions largely to De Gaulle’s cam-
paign^ against the constitution. He
had warned it would' lead to an-
archy and then dictatorship. All
three major parties in Prime Min-
ister Georges Bidault’s government
—Socialists, Communists and Pop-
ular Republicans—suported the doc-
ument.
De Gaulle’s role in the fourth
Republic may be calrified in the
Nov. 10 general elections. Many
political observers, including strong
left-wing supoprters, believed many
persons who abstained from voting
yesterday may give positive support
to D!e Gaulle then.
Washington, Oct. 14, (UP)—Pres-
ident Truman speaks to the nation
on stabilization tonight under se-
vere pressure to decontrol meat
for political purposes.
He is expected to mak^e some
concessions to ease the meat short-
age but to insist that government,
controls must not be abandoned
at this time.
The President’s 15 minute dis-
cussion will begin at 10 p.m. EST.
It will be broadcast by all major
networks.
The meat shortage is creating
a political crisis for the adminis-
'ira^iory. The Democratic Party
must fight for its control of Con-
gress in the general election three
weeks from tomorrow. Meat is
the spectacular short item. But
shortages in general have become
a powerful factor in the Congressi-
onal campaign.
Had news from the campaign
battle grounds has been overflow-
ing the White House. Short of re-
moving price controls from meat,
Mr. Truman could undertake oth-
erwise to ease the shortage. He
could authorize price increase or
a bonus to move beef into the
market. Slaughtering quotas could
be readjusted upward. Imports of
canned and frozen meat could be
fostered or a certificate system
might be proposed to assure the
raisers and feeders of cattle that
they wo'Uld be protected against
any future increase in prices.
Belief that Mr. Truman would
insist -on his hold-the-line stabili-
zation program persisted despite
heavy blows struck against it. In-
dustry members of the wag stabili-
zation board have resigned, com-
plaining that the board is unable
to function.
