Stock Market Uneven;
Some Oils and Special
Issues Advance
By Victor Eubank
Associated Frais Financial Writer
NEW YORK, Dec. 19.—Selective
progress was achieved in today’s
stock market, with some oils and
special issues doing well, but numer
ous leaders continued to seek lower
levels.
Slowdowns were frequent after a
fairly active opening. Mild irregu
larity was the rule near the fourth
hour.
Adjustment of accounts for the
weekend, together with further de
layed tax selling, served as a handi
cap. Professionals bought here and
there on the hope a late December
rally would be insoired by re-invest
ment demand. Skeptics regarding
anti-inflation legislation and foreign
affairs trimmed accounts.

Jewish Agency Off icia I
Doubts Big Uprising
By Palestine Arabs
By t!i« Associated Press
JERUSALEM, Dec. 19 (CDN» —
■ In the establishment of a Jewish
state in Palestine "we may suffer
i casualties of a thousand or two,
but the Arabs will not be able to
stop us," Maj. Ezekiel Saharov, se
curity officer of the official Jewish
Agency, declared in an interview
here.
“We do not expect a general
Arab uprising against us but only
guerrilla actions by bands who sup
port the mufti of Jerusalem.” the
Jews’ defense chief declared. “Arab
citrus growers and other economic
interests don't want to light. As
for the others—remember there is
a big gap between Arab talk and
Arab action.”
Since the United Nations decision
to partition Palestine and create a
Jewish state, Arab spokesmen in
Jerusalem, Cairo . and other mid
eastern capitals have repeatedly
declared their intention to fight to
prevent a Jewish state from being
born “in the very heart of the
Arab nation."
Maj. Saharov, a Palestinian-born
Jew of Russian origin, served as
an officer in. the British western
desert force. As "security officer”
of the Jewish Agency he is charged
with building the still illegal Jew
ish defense force, Hagana, into a
national army, and with protecting
frontiers and maintaining peace
within the proposed state.
Owing to Arab opposition It may
be necessary to withdraw some
| Jewish settlements from the Negeb,
, Southern Palestine's desert triangle,
and perhaps from far northern
| districts near the Sea of Galilee, but
not from the central coastal strip,
Maj. Saharov said.
Air and tank patrols will help
prevent attacks on villages, he
forecast. Many settlements, he
; said, may be equipped with con
i crete pillboxes, barbed-wire perime
1 ters and defensive land mines.
After disturbances, which he pre
dicted might last several months,
the defense chief said, peace would
come and bring Arab co-operation.

Carroll Planning Suit
Here to Force Army to
Let Him Defend Krupp
By (ha Associated Praia
NUERNBERG. Germany, Dec. 19.
— An American military tribunal
trying the Krupp armaments Arm
for war crimes denied today a sec
ond appeal by Alfred Krupp for the
services of Earl J. Carroll, attorney,
of Hayward, Calif.
Mr. Carroll immediately an
nounced to the press that he would
carry the issue to court in Wash
ington and challenge the validity of
all the American military tribunals
in Nuernberg.
As soon as the court read its
ruling, which charged Mr. Carroll
with "flagrant defiance" of orders by
Military Gov. Gen. Lucius D. Clay,
Dr. Otto Kranzbuehler formally re
signed as Kr upp's defense counsel.
Kranzbuehler told the aourt that
Alfred Krupp, the chief defendant
and sole owner of the vast cannon
making establishment, "is only
interested in being represented by
Carroll” and that he preferred,
therefore, to continue without any
counsel inasmuch as he had been
denied the services of an attorney
of his choice.
Choice Declared Real Iaaue.
The court ordered Kranzbuehler
to continue defending Krupp until
relieved.
Mr. Carroll declared the real is
sue is "whether a defendant is al
lowed counsel of his own choice.”
The American prosecution holds
that the military tribunals are in
ternational courts deriving their
authority and jurisidiction from a
four-power agreement of the Allied
Control Council and that, there
fore, American laws and procedures
do not strictly apply.
Mr. Carroll contends that the tri
bunals actually are military com
missions, similar to courts-martial,
and that they are bound by Amer
ican law.
Mr. Carroll said he would fly to
Washington next week to file a writ
of prohibition against the Amer
ican Secretary of Defense to halt
the proceedings oi the Krupp case.
In addition, he said he also would
file a writ of habeas corpus in an
effort to effect the release of Krupp
and would seek a mandate to com
pel the court here to recognize him.
Gen. Clay’s Letter Cited.
Krupp has maintained that he re
quired American counsel to obtain
a "fair trial,” but the court said
there was "a strong suspicion that
Krupp's application had not been
made in good faith but to pur the
tribunal in the utterly false position
of denying him counsel of his
choice.”
The court cited a letter from Gen.
Clay to Mr. Carroll, a former cap
tain, early this year directing him
"to refrain from acting as counsel"
beyond five specific cases for which
he was permitted entry into Ger
many. Because there have been no
modifications of this order, the court
said Mr. Carroll would not be avail
| able as counsel.
“It is a manifest fact that the
negotiations wdth Krupp (by Carroll)
are in flagrant defiance of an order
of Gen. Clay," the court added.
"Needless to say the tribunal will
not countenance such conduct. In
our considered opinion he has dis
qualified himself to appear before
this tribunal, which won't lend its
aid to handicap the military gov
ernor in discharging his grave re
sponsibilities.”
Tobacco Replaced by Com
As Leading Virginia Crop
ly th« Anociotftd Prtii
RICHMOND, Va., Dec. 19.—Corn
replaced tobacco as the leading cash
crop of Virginia farmers this year,
the Virginia Co-operative Crop Re
porting Service said yesterday.
In its annual crop report, the
agency labeled 1947 yields as "gen
erally * • * favorable,” except in the
case of fruits and some grains, which
were damaged in the unseasonable
freeze last May.
The value of the corn crop this
year was set at $98,762,000, although
the acreage planted to it was the
State's second smallest in the last
80 years. Yield per acre, however,
set an all-time record of 38 bushels.
The tobacco crop was valued at
$62,873,000, dropping to second place
despite the fact that production this
year was the third largest on record.
Trailing the leaders in order were
hay, peanuts, wheat, apples, potatoes
and sweet potatoes, the service said.
ACF-Brill Motors Co. earned $270,
606 or 28 cents in nine months ended
September 30 vs. a deficit of $1,
593,374 a year earlier.
