United States rejects plan to pull defenses from Europe
Washington reports that Secretary Acheson dismissed Hoovers proposal to defend the Americas as catastrophic and rejected any policy of withdrawing to the Western Hemisphere. He warned such a move would invite rapid Soviet conquest of Europe and Asia and noted the National Security Council has repeatedly opposed it. Senators said Acheson declined to specify U.S. troop levels for Europe and the Western Hemisphere.

Auto Workers Wages Frozen in War Mobilization
Washington reports a government move to curb inflation and bolster civil defense. Alan Valenteine, Economic Stabilizer, ordered a wage freeze for about 1,000,000 auto industry workers through March 1, limiting increases except where covered by existing contracts. The measure targets passenger car workers and excludes truck, motor-vehicle plants, and used-car establishments. A companion plan approved by the Senate authorizes 3.1 billion dollars for three years to build bomb shelters and other civil defenses under a newly created Civil Defense Administration with broad powers. The House will amend differences in the funding.
