SOCIALITE WINS
EVICTION ROUND
Fights To Prevent Eviction
Of War Veterans From
Her Home
SEATTLE, Oct. 16. — UP)— Mrs.
Marguerite L. Connell, socially
prominent widow, won the first
round today in her fight to pre
vent eviction of war veteran ten
ants from her 27-room home in an
exclusive residential district.
In a packed courtroom, Su
perior Judge Hobart S. Dawson
denied an application by Cecil A.
Gholson, president of the Mount
Baker Community club, for a tem
porary injunction which would
have ousted the families of three
war veterans, including two ex
pectant mothers.
Gholson brought the suit on
behalf of some 800 property own
ers. Mrs. Connell has resisted the
efforts, saying she “doesn’t have
the heart” to evict her tenants.
The Community Club charges she
violates restrictive covenants in
her deed, which limit use of the
property to “residence purposes
only.”
The case will now go to trial on
its merits after a date is set on
the court calendar.

the difficulties in Palestine and
this had cost her “hundreds ol
lives and considerable wealth."
“We cannot go on,” he said,
“indefinitely faced with the hos
tility of the parties in Palestine,
with fierce misrepresentations
outside and with the drain on
our own resources.”
Up To U. N.
He said it was essential that
in determining a settlement the
Assembly must determine how
the U. N. would make it work.
“It would be unreasonable to]
ask His Majesty’s government j
to carry the sole and full re
sponsibility for the administra
tion of Palestine,” he declared,
“and for enforcing changes
which the United Nations re
gard as necessary.”
“My government,” he continu
ed, “desire that it should be
clear beyond all doubt and am
biguity that not only is it our
decision to wind up the mandate
but that winthin a limited period
we shall withdraw.”
Creech-Jones did not give any
further hint as to when Britain
might leave Palestine but Brit
ish sources have said that con
versations already are under way
between London and Jerusalem
on the details. A target date for
withdrawal will be announced
later.
Early In 1948
A British delegation source
said it was impossible now to
say when the British would leave
Palestine but he speculated it
could not be until early in 1948
at the earliest.
While Creech-Jones spoke, the
Arab countries were reported
shaping up a challenge to the
right of the Assembly to act at
all on Palestine. It was said they
would seek a ruling from the
International Court of Justice and
suspension of the debate until
a court decision is made. This
would have the effect .some dele
gates observed, of forcing an in
definite delay in an Assembly
decision.
KRUPP PLANTS
(Continued From Page One)
British Military governor, said in
an address broadcast tonight.
Gen. Robertson told a news con
ference that dismantling the fac
tories would require at least two
years and that special labor bat
talions would be organized to do
the Job if the Germans refuse to
cooperate. He hinted soldiers
might be used. Robertson said
between 30,000 and 35,000 work
ers would be needed.
Maj. Gen. George P. Hays,
deputy U. S. Military governor,
told a news conference he did
not expect any difficulty in the
American zone, where only 69
plants remain to be dismantled.
However, he added, that “the plan
will be carried through.”
Hays declared German agancies
would be called upon to enforce
the dismantling orders and “the
last resort would be to use mili
tary force.”
“The economy of the combined
zones,” Robertson said, “can only
be revived by the provision of
help from America and Great
Britain and by means of coopera
tion between the American and
British administrations on the
one hand and the German peo
ple on the other.”
The dismantling plan was an
nounced by Gen. Lucius D. Clay,
American military governor, and
Marshal Sir Sholto Douglas, retir
ing British military governor.
10 Per Cent Less
Under the plan, remaining ca
pacities in heavy industries — in
cluding metals, machinery and
chemicals — will permit produc
tion on the average of five to 10
per cent less than the 1936 level.
However, light industries will
have a much higher productive
capacity than in that year.
Trade unionists have threaten
ed non-cooperation in dismantl
ing the plants as well as strikes
and demonstrations, while dis
patches from the Ruhr district
forecast sit-down strikes soon af
ter the publication today of the
doomed plants.
Geri. Robertson maintained that
the plan was “a generous settle
ment” and that workers- need not
fear the loss of employment since
“there is more than enough work
for all in Germany today and will
be under the new industrial plan
for years to come.”
Under the new industrial level,
the Germans in “Bizonia” would
have a standard of living about 80
per cent that of 1936, due to an in
crease of 6,000,000 in population.
Allies To Benefit
The equipment dismantled will
go to allied nations whose indust
ry was damaged by Germany in
the war, with 25 per cent sched
uled for delivery to Russia and
Poland.

GOVERNORS ACT
* TO HALT FIRES
By The Associated Press
Governors of five Northeastern
states yesterday ordered their
vast forests and wooded areas
closed to the public, and halted
virtually all hunting to prevent
fires in the drought-stricken tim
ber country.
In Vermont and New Hamp
shire the ban was effective im
mediately. In Massachusetts the
shutdown order went into effect
a+ midnight, in Maine at sunrise
today and in New York at mid
night tonight.
In Connecticut. State Forester
Raymond Kienholz said he had
ordered observers posted in the
woodlands but “as yet we don't
anticipate closing the forests.”
Gov. Thomas E. Dewey of New
York ordered closed about eight
and a half million acres of Adir
ondack forest land in all of nine
counties and parts of 11 others.
With the deer hunting season
scheduled to open Monday, he
suspended all hunting privileges
and forbade anyone to enter the
wooded area except on “neces
sary business'’ because of the
“highly inflammable condition of
the woods.”
Thirty-eight small forest fires
still were burning deep in the
ground in two Maine counties.
The fires already have burned
over 500 acres and destroyed sev
eral hundred cords of pulpwood.
