Ship Operators,
Union Reach
Agreement Today
New York, Oct. 22, (UP)—The
CIO Marine Engineers Union and
ship owners on the East and Gulf
Coasts reached an agreement to-
day the first real break in the
three weeks old maritime strike.
Details of the settlement were
not anounced pending ratification
by union locals, but the agreement
was understood to provide for a 15
percent wage increase, and a boost
in overtime rates from $1.25 to
$1.60 an hour. Night rates report-
edly were boosted from $1.15 to
$1.50 an hour.
In addition to the pay increases,
the union reportedly received the
right of preferential hiring, the
principal snag in settling the
strike.
The new agreement will raise the
pay of ch:ef engineers on Ameri-
can vessels from $493 to $571 a
month and junior engineers from
$224 to $235.
The CIO agreement covers 44
shipping companies on the Gulf
and East Coasts and affects ap-
proximately 12,000 union members.
The agreement, which probably
will be submitted to the locals to-
morrow, becomes effective imme-
diately upon ratification but the
strike will Continue until the AFL
Masters, Mates and Pilots Associa-
tion has reached an agreement
with the operators.
Negotiations with the AFL Un-
ion will be resumed this afternoon
at 3:30 o’clock.

Officials Admit
Sugar Shortage
As Being Acute
Washington, Oct. 23, (UP)—Gov-
ernment officials today confirmed
some of the housewives worst sus-
picions about the current retail
sugar shortage.
They said the scarcity is the
most acute in history—worse even
than during the war—and that
there’s tittle chance of relief until
the shipping industry can shake
off efefcts of the maritime strike.
Even then, they said, it will
take rom three V/eeks to a month
for imports of raw sugar to regain
pre-strike volume and for sugar
to (start rea^eparing on retail
shelves.
No substantial sugar shipments
have reached the United States
since Sept. 5 except during the
brief period betv/en the end of the
longshoremen’s strike Sept. 23 and
the start of current maritime strike
Oct. 1.

“Batata” is the name that squir-
ed spuds into the Old World from
the New, when the Spanish con-
querors found the Indians growing
these dcible tubers In America.
“Batata,” however, applied first to
sweet potatoes, and only later got
to be the label for all sorts of
spuds. In many sections of our
own South when you say “potato,”
you mean “sweet potato” since
that’s the spud most often served
in the South.
Passing on its own blessings, the
South is sending some of its best
“sweets” north this season in the
form of golden yam-type sweet po-
tatoes from Louisiana. These are
sweet potatoes better than you’ve
ever tasted—deep gold the flesh
moist and sugary the texture, a
Missing Bride
Being Sought by
Georgia Police
Atlanta, Ga., Oct. 22, (UP)—Po-
lice expressed hope today that the
17-year-old bride, missing from a
tourist home, had abandoned sui-
cide plans, and would communicate
with her husband, William F. Glo-
baker, of Cleveland, Ohio, when
she learns of his anxiety.
The girl registered at the tourist
home as Evelyn Cornish, of Tulsa,
Okia., her foster mother’s home,
wrote a farewell note—found in
sweet potato superb! Just to give 1 P*eces in the wastebasket and dis-
you a cue for finding these treas-
ures at market, look for a deep
rose skin with golden flesh be-
neath, sure signs of the sweet po-
tatoes Louisiana grows.
At a time when so many sources
of vitamin A are 'either scarce or
expensive, it’s a boon to have
Louisiana’s best on hand since her
sweet potatoes are more than 60
times richer in vitamin A than the
same size white potato! So rich
are these yam-type sweet potatoes
ir. sugary, goodness that you need
not bother to candy them—and es-
pecially with sugar-bowl sugar so
short! Just pop these golden beau-
ties into the oven and bake them.
Open them up when done and—
surprise!—you’ll find they have
carmelized next the skin from
sheer lavishness of natural sugar.
You’ll like* these Louisiana sweets
for baking, too, because they have
a . moist, not mealy, texture.
Use these super sweets, too, as
U! J color accent for autumn and win-
|jf | ter meals. No pallid potatoes
"" these, but a true splash of sun-
shine at the lunch and dinner ta-

Her husband said they had
quarreled. She left him nie days
ago leaving a note saying Don’t
try to find me—you can’t.”
Because the note expressing sui-
cidal intentions was in shreds, it
was surmised that the girl had
changed her mind about violence.
Atlanta authorities received the
news from a motorist that he had
given a ride to a young woman
answering Mrs. Globaker’s descrip-
tion. She said that she was hitch-
hiking to Raiford, Fla., to see her
ex-husband who is serving a term
in the state penitentiary .there.
Globaker, who wants his wife to
know that he’s sorry, and wants
her to return, said he knew noth-
ing of his wife’s past. Their mar-
riage blossomed from a chance
meeting in a restaurant several
months ago.

House Shortage
Sends Yeek-Old
Boy on Plane Trip
Fort Worth, Tex., Oct. 2-2. (U.P.)
—The housing shortage in Fort
Worth sent a seven-day-old boy
on a 500-mile airliner flight and
pared the city’s population today,
a little, at least temporarily.
Because his father could find
only tourist court accomodations—
and these in nearby Arlington, not
in Fort worth—William Otis Hudson
III has flown to New Orleans to
stay awhile with his grandmother.
Delta Airlines said young Bill was
the youngest passenger ever to
board one of their planes.
With the baby were his mother,
Mrs. w. O. Hudson*, II; his grand-
mother, Mrs., J. M. Hudson of New
Orleans, and his two-year-old sis-
ter, Jane.
The father, a civil engineer, said
he and Mrs. Hudson agreed that
a motor court is no place to take
a week-old child,” He said he had
no prospects for a house or apart-
ment, “but I still have hopes.”

Swarthmore, Pa., Oct. 23, (UP)
Nazi leaders in Germany spent
a great deal of time and effort
on proposed schemes to defeat the
late President Roosevelt each time
he ran for reelection, according to
O. John Rogge, special .assistant
to the U.S. Attorney General.
In a speech here last night, he
said that the late William R. Dlav-
is, an American promoter who had
been selling oil to Germany, ap-
proached Reichmarshal Hermann
Goering before the 1940 elections
(with a ,p'l nam (which; Davis
claimed he could influence John L.
Lewis to oppose Mr. Roosevelt and
help elect W'endell Willkie, the Re-
publican candidate.
Rogge said Lewis had aided Da-
vis in 1938 to secure control of
expropriated Mexican oil which Da-
vis sold to Germany.
He said Daivs’ election plan was
a “fantastic scheme.” Lewis, pres-
ident of the United Mine Workers,
came out publicly for Willkie later.
Rogge did not say that German
influence had any bearing on Lew-
] is’ decision.
In Washington, a spokesman for
Lewis declined to comment on
Rogge’s statements. The spokes-
man said Lewis would have no
comment.
Rogge noted that Washington
columnist Marquis Childs had re-
ported that Davis put up $55,000
to pay for the nationwide radio
hookup over which Lewis announc-
ed his support for Willkie in 1940.
In response to questioning after
his speech, Rogge said he did not
thiniki Lewis’ action had violated
any federal statute. “If they did,”
he added, ‘the statute of limita-
tions has already expired.”
Strike Against
0PA Ceilings on
Rent May Spread
Seattle, Oct. 23, (UP)—A pro-
posed landlords strike against
OPA ceilings on rent threatened
lo spread to three other Pacific
Northwest cities today despite pro-
tests of homeless war veterans.
The, threat of landlords ' in this
teeming port city of 500,000 to lock
the doors of any apartments vacat-
ed by present tenants until grant-
ed rent relief was immediately at-
tacked by the Veterans of Foreign
Wars.
‘This is the most unfair thing
I’ve heard of,” said Walter A. Dee-
bach, a VFW official. “Tlw«e
guys are forgetting the boys who
kept those apartments safe for
them.”
However, a splolkesman for the
Olympia, Wash., landlord’s associa-
tion said the proposed strike was
a “good idea.” Some 150 Spokane
landlords called a meeting to con-
sider a strike. Herbert Syfoi’d,
president of the Tacoma Associa-
tion, said 250 property owners there
might support the Seattle strike.
In Washington, D. C., the OPA
conceded that it had no power to
block a landlord’s strike. However,
Ivan D. Carson, deputy OPA ad-
ministrator for renit, said the
threat would not alter CPA’s de-
cision to maintain rent ceilings
at present levels.
Carson said an earlier strike at-
tempt on the West Coast failed be-
cause owners refused to partici-
pate.
Plans for a nationwide landlord’s
strike will be placed before a con-
vention of the national apartment
owners association in Oklahoma
City Nov. 18 and 19.
