Private lockout protests decree raising wages
BUENOS AIRES. Jan. 14.—(U.E)— Commerce and industry throughout Argentina were almost 100 per cent paralyzed today by a private enterprise lockout protesting against a government decree giving every worker a month’s pay bonus and raising wages 10 to 25 per cent.
The lockout began at midnight and up to noon it was proceeding in complete calm with no disorders reported.
Transportation and other public services operated normally, in Buenos Aires and in the interior, although in some provincial cities streetcars Uperated “according to rules”—a slow down in protest against non-fulfillment of the government’s decree.
Banks opened normally at 12:30 p.m. because they are subject to the government-controlled central bank, but in downtown Bueno* Aires the only business places open were small cigarette stands and the large municipal market, controlled by the government.
Some butcher shops opened here today because they had purchased meat for Monday before the lockout decision was taken, but will be closed Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.
The lockout is scheduled to end at midnight Wednesday but will be extended if no agreement between the government and business is reached on the bonus-wage decree or if the authorities resort to force.
policy gets U.S. okay
Vandenberg tells UNO assembly of American desire for more ‘Light’
LONDON, Jan, 14.—(U.P.)— Sen. Arthur H. Vandenburg, R., Mich., today pledged the United States’ UNO delegation to a policy of seeking United Nations promotion of “worldwide freedom for exchange of news and views.”
He told the UNO general assembly in his first appearance on the rostrum that “our persistently faithful motto must be ‘Let There Be Light’.”
Vanderburg spoke in a successful effort to persuade Philfppine delegate Pedro Lopez to withdraw at this time a resolution calling for an international conference on news under United Nations auspices.
This first assembly discussion of freedom of the Press came a week after Hugh Baillie, president of United Press, sent a proposed UNO resolution to U. S. delegate Edward R. Stettinius on steps to be taken for worldwide freedom of the press. Lopez withdrew his motion after Vandenburg asked that the first meeting of the assembly be confined to organization and urgent world problems.
“The United Nations csn do much to achieve peace by bringing together the world press today,” Vandenberg said. “Let them sit together at the same table . . . and define a charter of their rights and obligations. This assembly is not alone a town hall of the world—to me it is the conscience of the world itself.
Vandenberg then said that the United States delegation agreed with the assembly general committee to postpone such problems until a later meeting, but that it does not agree that “any such postponement registers any lack of total sympathy with the objective brought to us by the Philippine delegation—or that we intend to neglect this vital subject at the earliest opportunity when it may be appropriately explored.”
Conspicuous by his absence, William Phi Alpha, the miniature edition of Tirebiter who recently made the news by spending Christmas in jail, was given an ultimatum by his SAE fraternity brothers to either stay on campus or the row or he would not go active in March
It seems that when Willy was recently in the hospital being treated for flu, he was given sulfa and has not been quite normal since. At any rate, Willy left the house Friday night to see “Lost Weekend” and was not seen for two days.
Despite the fact that he was seen in the vicinity of Western and Wilshire, SAE brothers were not worried when Willy missed connections and failed to meet Carl Romer at the office.
When asked his reaction to his brothers’ ultimatum, Willy merely replied that “It’s silly for a dog to go to school and besides that the place isn’t big enough for both Tirebiter and me.”

Order spreads to cease fire in China war
CHUNGKING, Jan. 14.—(U.E)— Chinese planes are attempting to spread the news of the official end ' of China's 18-year-old civil war by dropping 800,000 copies of a cease- j fire order over the interior, the Central News Agency reported to- ! day from Nanking.
At the same .time, communist or- j gans charged for the second successive day that government armies in Jehol province of Manchuria have violated the truce. The communist New China daily said that Gen. Tu Li Ming’s troops received the cease-fire order last Friday morning and continued attacks against four .towns on Saturday.
Meanwhile, three peace commissioners charged with carrying out the terms of the truce arrived Sunday afternoon in Peiping from Chungking. The commission is composed of American charge d’affaires Walter Robertson, communist chief of staff Gen. Chien Ying, and nationalist Gen. Cheng Kai-Ming.
While * the militarists sought to insure peace in the north, representatives to the political consultative assembly wrestled with the problems of releasing political prisoners and organizing a new government of China that will include all parties.
Chang is charged with kidnapping Generalissimo Chiang Kai-Shek at Sian in December, 1936. Chou also asked for the release of Gen. Yang Hu-Cheng, who he said was in charge of troops where the abduction occurred.

The topic will be “The housing situation, what’s wrong with it, and what can be done about it?” Rin-Twenty-six pledges will be initiat- aldo intimated he would give figures ed into the SC chapter of Alpha Eta on national, state and local govem-Rho, aviation fraternity, today at 4 ments’ plans to assuage the short-p.m..

has yet been constructed.”
The AVC official will outline the : steps he believes should be taken and sketch plans which have already been instituted. He said that army officials have pointed out that there is, in the Los Angeles area, enough building material to cover the entire needs of the community. “The $64 question is how to get army bigwigs to sever the red tape and release these materials to the public,” said Rinaldo.
Rinaldo stated that through and 1500 of these are for the cty federal aid, 6500 temporary units have been allocated to this district and 1500 of these are for the city of Los Angeles. What is important to the SC student veteran, though, is that these units will not be given to students, but are for veterans who are now' in the greatest need of them.
Schools may apply for further aid for veterans through the board of education, which will then take their requests on to the federal
housing authority. In order to do this the school must stand ready to do three tmings, Rinaldo emphasized. They must provide a piece of property, go through the emergency housing group, and finance the deal.
At the conclusion of Rinaldo’s speech, veterans may question him briefly on points of special Interest to them, Milton Buck, Trovet president, said. Buck also revealed that Pantelis Lambrose will be chairman of the forum.
Trovets are informed that the deadline for appointments for El Rodeo photographs has been extended to Wednesday. The Trovet i prexy warned that Wednesday | would definitely be the last day for | these appointments.
Plans for the all-U veterans dance to be held Jan. 25 in the student lounge are being drawn up by Jerry Kosseff, chairman of Trovets’ social committee, Buck announced.
AVC housing forms are not yet available, it was announced, but they are expected in the near future.

chairman, has promised an atmosphere simulating a winter sports scene complete even to trees.
Which brings up a point. Because of requests by the decorations committee for donations of Christmas trees, many students have been asking Miss Lovell about the “Christmas dance.” She wants to clarify the situation with the explanation that the trees are to be used for decorations in the winter theme, and won't be trimmed for a post-season Yule celebration.
