CIO Strikers Retard Work in Ship Yards
The CIO shipbuilding workers’ union said last night that 1,500 workers had left jobs at two Mobile, Ala., yards of the Alabama drydock and shipbuilding company, disrupting government defnese orders.
Company spokesmen said “only 80, maybe 100, men were out and denied a serious work delay. But the union said at least half of the yards 3,5000 workers were conducting a work-stoppage which “isn’t a str:ke” in protest against failure to obtain wage gains.
WORK HALTED
Operations on the S. S. De Orleans, converting it into a navy transport, were halted, the union announced.
Two wildcat strikes which crippled operations at three Detroit automotive plants employing 33,000 workers ended when the United Automobile Workers ('CIO) authorized dismissal of strike leaders and ordered other holdouts to resume production.
The strikes broke out Monday at the Briggs body company’s Plymouth department and the Dodge division of the Chrysler corporation, involving about 400 employes at each plant, but causing a shutdown affecting 17,000 other workers.
NEED EQUIPMENT
The Briggs strike caused Chrys-ler’s Plymouth plant to shut down for lack of equipment, dislocating another 15,000 men. On order of the UAW, the Dodge plant employes resumed work Wednesday morning, and later in the day the union agreed to discharge leaders of the Briggs strike, permitting resumption of work there and at the Plymouth unit.
The walkouts originally protested alleged slowdowns and discriminatory dismissals of employes.

Chris took all this adulation modestly and stood looking at his admirers with quiet brown eyes, silent all the while. Who is this male marvel you ask? Chris is. a gorgeous silver-grey German sheppard, mascot of the Ohio State football team.
The dog is owned by Dick Ar-mel, one of the university’s cheerleaders, and is in Los Angeles after a lengthly automobile trip from Ohio with his master.
Chris is not named for Christopher Columbus, “No, it’s not for Columbus,” said Armel, “but for my new Chrysler car.”
Germans See Finn Victories as Allegiance
BERLIN, Oct. 1.—OLE)—The Finnish capture of Petrozavodsk, a Lake Onega port on the Lenin-grad-Murmansk railway, 38 miles beyond the old Russo-Finnish border, was regarded by the Nazis today as proof that the Finns were their allies, and were not merely fighting to regain lost territory. ANNOUNCE CAPTURE
Petrozavodsk’s capture by Finnish troops driving north along the Murmansk railway and west from Lake Ladoga, was announced simultaneously in a communique at Helsinki and by the official German news agency, DNB here.
Meanwhile, German dispatches said that fierce Russian counterattacks at Leningrad, which is 185 miles southwest of Petrozavodsk, had been beaten back and the German drive in the south, now extending to the fringe of the Donets industrial basin, “continued successfully.”
DENY REPORTS Nazi informants denied reports from Stockholm that the Russians had succeeded partially in breaking through the German siege lines at Leningrad. The Nazis said the action referred to happened last week, that the Russians were thrown back with heavy losses and that they had not attempted another break-through since.
(The Stockholm report, circulated by correspondents of the newspapers Tidningen and Dagens Nyheter from Helsinki, said the Russians advanced from the Leningrad garrison under heavy artillery barrage and led by heavy and medium tanks.
Which makes 90 per cent of the nation’s passenger cars and trucks and hold $2,500,000,000 of defense contracts, eventually will become the largest producers of the medium or 32-ton rolling fortresses. CHRYSLER LEADS
Chrysler has a head start on tank production. It is turning out eight daily at its new $20,000,000 tank arsenal and hopes to boost its quota to 15 daily by the end of the year. General Motors, which alone has $1,300,000,000 of defense orders, is negotiating with army and government officials at Washington on a $300,000,000 tank order.
Ford already has started building a new steel mill at the giant River Rouge plant which will supply heavy cast armor plate for medium tanks.
EAGER TO BUILD
Although no contract has been signed, Ford repeatedly has expressed willingness to build tanks for the government just as he did during the first world war.
Ford officials were reported considering their Highland Park, Mich., plant for final assembly of tarfcs, materials for which would be shipped from the Rouge factories.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1. —(U.P) — Price stabilizer Leon Henderson warned American business men that pyramiding of the new and higher excise taxes, which became effective today, would present a “dangerous” threat to the nation’s price structure.
“I am sure,” he said, “that business will take steps to avert this threat.”
His warning was prompted by reports that some manufacturers, wholesalers and retailers each were adding the amount of the new taxes to the “mark-up” price of the product.
“The increase prices paid by consumers as the result of the new levies should in no case reflect more than the actual dollar amount of the manufacturers’ total excise tax,” Henderson said. “This policy should be applied to cases where excise taxes are continued and increased as well as where taxes now are being levied for the first time.”

Registrar’s Office Notice
Eligibility and Honors
The attention of all students is called to the fact that eligibility and honors are usually dependent on a high cumulative scholarship average and not alone on the record for one or two semesters or for all units passed.
A low record during the first semester or any single semester is likely to prove to be a very serious, permanent handicap in college and also in the later years after graduation.
Under Rising Strife
ISTANBUL, Oct. 1.—(UJR)—Travelers from Rumania reported today that Gen. Ion Antonescu had given up his military command on the Russian front as well as his Rumanian premiership and that German police were campaigning relentlessly against dissidence and sabotage in Rumania.
Mounting in concert with the Rumanian army’s distaste for the war with Russia, the informants said, was a national fear that the beginning winter would be Rumania’s most trying in history from the economic standpoint.
LEAVES FRONT
Fully reliable persons arriving here brought word that Antonescu had returned to Bucharest from the southeastern battlefront where he was commander in chief of Rumanian and some German forces.
His return, together with an alleged widespread disgruntlement with the war, was taken to indicate that Rumania’s position was somewhat akin to that of Finland, described in some quarters as ready to pull out of the war after achieving her territorial aspirations.
Rumanian forces helped drive the Russians out of Bessarabia, the province reclaimed from Rumania by Russia, and have been reported suffering heavy losses on the southern front, particularly around the besieged Soviet port of Odesa. ASSUMED OFFICE
Antonescu recently made himself defense minister, replacing Gen. Iosif Iacobici who was named chief of the general staff, and turned over the premierhsip to Michali Antonescu, former minister of justice, the informants said.
Antonescu’s active participation in the war against Russia apparently was ended, but the travelers said Rumanian troop trains still were moving eastward.

the office of the coliseum police to report the loss, while the other Bruin hurried to keep the gates from closing.
Suddenly, even miraculously, the truck roared down the track. The “loyal Bruin rooters’* raced by the dazed committeemen in the stolen truck with the Victory bell and vanished into the night.
CLUES FOUND
Further clues were discovered Saturday night when sorority members found placards and signs hanging outside of their respective houses. Unknown callers rang the bells of the houses and left cartoons and communiques.
One cartoon represented a Bruin rooter propped up against a goal post, as two men in cardinal and gold, tiptoed off with a bell. The caption read “Thanks for the ring! Don’t forget Dec. 6.”
BLAME PLACED
As far as the UCLA student body is concerned, the entire blame for the theft was laid on the doorsteps of the Trojan fraternity houses Tuesday when the stolen truck, which had carted the bell from the game, was found abandoned on West 30th street.
Searching parties have been organized to scout the area, but thus far no trace of the bell has been found. It appears to the casual observer that the clues are too obvious to be true. It could easily have been the work of a rival college in an effort to institute a Trojan-Bruin feud.
