/Huge Supply of
Meat Disclosed
Austin Branch for Negroes
Sought in University Suit -
BOSTON, Oct 1.—()—State of.
ficials today sought the identity of
owners of 4,000 000 pounds of
dressed meat discovered in a large
- freezing plant by special investi-
gators ordered by Democratic Gov-
ernor Maurice J. Tobin to deter-
mine if any of the scarce commod-
ity was being "deliberately with-
held from consumers."
Massachusetts state police and
■ public health inspectors reported
to Tobin last night that of the 6,-
, 000,000 pounds of meat found in
a waterfront establishment, 2,000,-
000 pounds was army property
and 4,000,000 pounds was owned
privately.
Tobin immediately wired Sec-
retary of War Robert Patterson
asking the army to release 25 per-
cent of its allotment—including
beef, pork and lamb—to meet crit-
ical needs of hospitals, some of
which fed horse meat to patients
last week. •
The Massachusetts division on
the necessaries of life, ordered to
identify -the private owners, has
full authority to summons witness-
es and records in any investiga-
—” tion of shortages of essential com-
modities, Tobin said.
The investigation followed a
Sunday emergency meeting by the
governor with State department
heads, after which Tobin said laws
pertaining to conspiracy and re-
straint of trade might be brought
into play if "combines" or "agree-
ments” to withhold sale of meat
were disclosed.
Nine district public inspectors
and as many state police mean-
while continued their probe of 200
slaughter houses and 41 licensed
cold storage plants in the Bay
State. 1

address yesterday by declaring
that any new decontrol period
would simply-lead to “feast and
then famine."
Pleading for "cooperation in try-
filg to bring meat back to the
’American people at legitimate
prices," the secretary asked the
executive board of the New Mexico
Cattle Growers association "what
do you have' to suggest’”
it was not immediately clear
here whether the requisitioning
step Anderson mentioned as "a
very real danger” would be de-
signed to channel more meat into
regular channels or merely to as-
sure the armed services and hos-
pitals of a greater supply.
Pittsburgh Hotel
Employes Walkout
PITTSBURGH, Oct. 1.—(P—
About 1.800 employes of Pitts-
burgh's eight major hotels struck
at one minute after midnight to-
day following expiration of their
two-year union contract.
An hour earlier the union — lo-
cal 237 of the AFL Hotel and Res-
taurant Employes' association —
voted 95 percent in favor of a
strike, union officials reported.
Chief matter of dispute in dis-
cussions of a new contract was the
union's demand for 20 percent pay
raise.
. It was the first hotel strike
here since 1941 when the union
walked out in a wage issue._______

AUSTIN, Oct. 1.—(UP)—Suit
to require establishment of a
branch of the University of Texas
for negroes in Austin was on file
in 53rd district court here
The suit was, for practical pur-
poses. the same as that attempted
to be filed in the state supreme
court, which held itself without
authority to act on such a matter
except on appeal from a lower
court.. :
Dr. Everett H. Givens. Austin
negro dentist, was applicant in
both filings. He.seeks a mandamus
requiring the board of regents to
establish the school here.
The petition cites constitution-
al provisions under which Givens
claims Austin is already legally
designated as the site for such a
university, and says an intent not
to follow that course is shown by
joint report of a committee of Un-
iversity regents and A. & M. col-
lege directors favoring Houston as
site.

ed by Gov. Coke R. Stevenson to
make recommendations has not re-

Night Sticks Swung
At Studio Strike
HOLLYWOOD, Oct. 1—PPOSev-
eral men were injured when po-
lice and sheriff's deputies clash-
ed today with a parade of pickets
at Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer studio.
As the paraders resisted efforts
of the officers to drive them back,
night sticks were 'brought into
use and a number of men on both
sides went down.
- A call was issued for police re-
serves and ambulances.
The parade followed a meeting
last night of veterans of both
world wars at which a demonstra-
tion in sympathy with studio un-
ion pickets was planned.

major part of the master plan for eral charge o{ conspiracy against
the future growth of Abilene pre- the peace of the world and aggres-
pared in the recent Koch and Fow-
ler survey.
The highway proposals were
compiled by the local district high-
way office under direction of
Treadaway and DeWitt Greer,
state highway engineer.
Treadaway said-Highway 80 will
be widened west of Abilene to a
four lane interstate highway over
a five-mile stretch to the first
underpass on the route to Sweet-
water. The many little bridges
over that five-mile route are to
be widened as well. Treadaway
disclosed. This widening has been
approved for some timer he said,
but cannot be accomplished until
overall approval of the recon-
struction east of Abilene is sp-
proved in Washington.
Amount of right-of-way needed
to build the circle in the Mag-
nolia street area and need for a
greater clearance for big trucks
passing under the railroad were
reasons given by Treadaway for
location of the underpasses in the
Magnolia area Underpasses .will

Cost to the city of Abilene

and federal governments
would share cost of construe- -
