The 10-day strike of 8,600 AFL tugboat workers, which caused a drastic fuel ahortage to th* city’s millions and resulted in a shutdown of biuinesa for 18 hours on Tuesday In a move to conserve shrinking fuel ’ supplies, was called off after union officiala and operators agreed to arbitrate a wage dispute.

The union ordered the strikers to go back to their Jobs of operating tugs..

Within an hour after workers trooped aboard their craft at 8 a. m., the world’s busiest harbor throbbed again with activity, snorting, chugging tugS Immedi- diately were concentrated on the Job of transporting fuel across the Hudson from New Jersey.

Laurence C. Turner, Office of Defense Transportation representative designated to operate the strike-bound craft under Federal seizure, said all o f the harbor’s 400 tugs had returned to woric.

He told a pews conference that actual operations was turned bizck to private owners, as o f 8 a. m., but that the seizure order would ‘ ‘remain in effect for the present.

Asked when the order would be lifted, he saiid:

"As soon as Colonel Johnson (Col. J. Monroe Johnson, ODT director) is satisfied there will be no further interruption of service, he undoubtedly will lift the seizure."

They charged that China virtually was forced to conclude the SinoWSovtet treaty under duress.

Washington, Feb. 14.— [iP) — President Truman summoned western congressmen to the White House today for a «eries of talk& in- the wake of Harold L. Ickes’ explosive exit from the cabinet. Executive aides were rather noncommittal but the speculation was that Mr. Truman—confronted with one of his toughest political problems to date—was pursuing his quest for a successor to Ickea aa secretary of the interior.

House Speaker Rayburn (Tex.), Senator* wheeler (Mont.), Hatch (N. M.), O’Mahoney (Wyrt), and Thomas and Murdock (Utah), ail Democrats, we)-e among lawma'.t- era called for coiiferekces with the chief executive.

O'Mahoney, among those mentioned as a possible .new interior secretary, declined to talk after seeing the president, telling reporters: "There isn’t any news." He added in response to a question that the cabinet vacancy "naturaUy" came up for discussion.

However, Hatch, chairman of the Senate Public Lands committee, said after his call that he had îCc<ssed “iieveral men” with Mr. Truman in connection wit); the vacancy, adding: "The president is searching for the right man."

The New Mêxico senator said he did not suggest a specific nominee, but that he did advocate a westerner familiar with reclamation, irrigation and other problems of the western states. He expressed the belief that Mr. Truman had not made a decision.

Would Have Lot to SayLegialators from the western

states pcesumably would have a lot to say;> about a new* Interior department chief. The department manages vast Federal land holdings In that section o f the country.

White House Secretary Charles G. Rosa waa asked by rcj^rters whether all o f the congressional engagements dealt with the question of finding a replacement for Ickes. He replied that he didn’t think all o f them did, but did not elaborate.

Ferguson Ready to Request Extension Until June 3 0 ; Lucas Wants Hawaiian Witnesses

Washington. Feb. 14—(/P)—Admiral Chester W. Nimitz told Congress today the Ifavy's carrier flêt may make any atomic air attack on this country "very cllffl- cult.”

At the same time, the chief of Naval operations said submarines hold promise of becoming "the most successful vehicle for carrying’ atomic weapons to within short distances of coastal targets."

Appearing before the Senate Naval committee to present the Navy’a recommendations for the post war fleet. Nimitz brought with him charts whi6h showed plans for:

5.3 O -eraeaa Bases A system of 53 overseas bases

for ships and planes—33 in the Pacific and 20 in the Atlantlc-Carrl- bean area.

A Navyz manned, afloat and ashore, b.v 500,000 enlisted men • and 58.(K)0 officers.

An active fleet of 319 combatant Vessels, part of a total fleet of 1,079 active, ready reserve and laid-jip ships distributed in the two ocean:;.

An aerial striking force of 3,731 aircraft. 2.180 based on carriers.

Will Have Profound Effect In his prepared testimony Nim

itz said "there is no doqbt that the use of atomic expioslvlfll and other new Weapons will have a profound effect on the composition and employment of Armies, Navies and Air Forces in the future.”

Declaring that while the ships, together with Armies and cities, are vulnerable the admiral added "ships’ are difficult and unprofitable targets for atomic bombing” and almost Impossible targets for super rockets.” Then he said:

‘The ability of our carrier task forces to prevent penetration by hostile aircraft may make atomic bombing very difficult.

Waahlngton, Feb. 14—(/P)—Senator Ferguson (R., Mich.) said today that "if nobody else does," he will seek extension of the congressional Pearl Harbor inquiry until June 30.

The three-month old probe—already once extended—Is scheduled to end tomorrow unless the Senate and House vote more time for it.

"We can’t let this thing die," Ferguson told a reporter.

Another Indication of a desire for an extension came from Senator Lucas (D., III.)

"I can’t see how the committee can conclude this hearing without having some witness from Hawaii. We have been investigating Wash- ingt(m all this time," Lucas commented at the hearing.

Basic issues In the inquiry, are r.’hether Washington supplied Hawaii with sufficient information Prior to Japan’s attack on Pearl Harbor.

Agree Upon One PointOut of 11,812 pages of Pearl

Harbor testimony emerged at least one thing today on which Republicans and Democrats agreed—a proposal that a single office weigh all military intelligence.

The proposal, made by a lawyer- soldier witness, Henry C. Clausen of San Francisco, was received enthusiastically by all tho congressional committee members present.

Clausen, who as a lieutenant colonel conducted a Pearl Harbor inquiry for the War department, said be found "Jealousy between the services’* hampering intelligence work not only in 1941 but right down to tho end of the war.

Frankfurt. Germany, Feb. 18— 4 (Delayed) —(J>) — Mr*'; Eleanor Roosfvelt, visiting Germsny for | the first time since the war, ex- j pressed her disapproval today of : GI marriages abroad.

"I do not think soldiers shouli) be allowed to marry abroad, where they are a prey to loneliness.” she tol^ a ■ press conference. vi think that before marrying abroad a soldier should return home and then if be wants to m a n x ke should bring the bride over.”

She said she thought it especially unwise for soldiera to marry German girla at presept because “ there ii more to marrtqge than loneliness, attractiveness or Just pity." .

' To illustrate the difflcultiea of foreign marriages, she pointed to the pumber of soldiers formerly stationed in England who were divorcing their war hrides after reaching home. She said she felt there certainly had been cases where girls married Just to get to the United Staten.

Shortly after stepping from an Army plane she told listeners on the Armed Forces Radio network and a amall group o f ooldlers at the airport that the thought theUnited Nations Orgaslxatlon had made "a w ryLondon.

Russians Charge Nazi Attempt to Place Blame U pon SovietsNuernberg, Germany, Feb. 14—

(AP)—The Russians placed the controversial Katj-n forest murders before the International Military tribunal today, charging that the Germans attempted with extortion and bribery to find civilian 'witnesses who would say the mass executions were Red Army wpfk.

The dispute over the vast graves; said to contain 10,000 Polish officers’ bodies,’ produced the rupture of relations in 1943 between Russia and the now defunct Polish govemment-ln-exile in London.

The Germans fin t announced finding the graves near Smolensk and accused the Russians of killing Polish officers there when ' Germany and Russia partitioned Poland in 1939.

Inveatlgatlon SoughtThe Polish government in Lon

don asked the International Red Oqee to investigate, a move which so infuriated the Kremlin that relations between the two fpes of Germany were sever^. The Red CroM did not take up the case. Subsequently, when. Russian Armies rolled past Smolensk and the Katyn forest, Russian investigators found evidence that the work was done by the Germans themselves.

Russia never forgave the Polish government in London. Another regime residing in Moscow was recognized by the Soviets as the legal Polish government and was established at Lublin. The other Allies later recognised the jAiblin regime which by Big Three agreement was reorg;anlzed to Include representatives of other Polish elements,

Hartford conspiracy claimed by State’s Attorney H. M. Alcorn, Jr., and his associates to have oome into being in thl* city following the 1943 muni(dpal elections was hatched by Herman Levitan, a racketeer, according to Assistant State’s Attorney John P.

Levitan and City Assessor Harry J. Ward are on trial before the jury on conspiracy charges. Ar- ."uments to be made later to Superior Court Judge P,. B.

Likened to Tree The assistant state’s attorney,

who started his argument late We<inesday afternoon, likened a conspiracy to a tree. Ho presented to the jury the idea that certain key men represent the trunk of the tree and no matter how many branches there are, it still remains one tree. He told the Jury that in 1943 Hertford was governed by a Democratic administration. One man. "neither fish nor fowl” in political circles, considered himself aggrieved.

He urged the returned service people to amalntaln the same sense of humor which oar- rled the American youth so gallantly through the war.

Describing hU experiences on the US8 “^ terp rlse’’ on the day of her most terrifle battle. Chaplain Tower pointed out the saving value of good humor on the part of the American sailor."

Thomas Maxwell was responsible for the effective decorations.

The problem of shortage of men’s clothing has been partly solved by the servicemen themselves. Many returned veterans after two to four years' absence, found that the civilian clothes failed to fit them and they were unable to buy new ones.

A visit to the different dyeing and tailoring concerns In Manche.stcr found them busy dyeing trotiscrs, coats and Jackets and altering them.

palVffalrs but rather because the Hartford police department functioned to efficiently. His particular grievance was against Cspt. John Kivney. head of the vice squad, who h.id caused a big reduction In Income to Levitan.

Mr. Hodgson told the Jury that so active had the vice squad been under Klvney’s leadership that Ix'vlt.Tn's Income from pool selling had dropped from $13,500 In 1942 to $740 In 1943. Mr. Hodgson presented I.«vitnn's own figures, which he said admittedly were conservative, to show the profits of 1942 from pool selling exclu.slve o f $3,000 he made as the result of dice games. He pictured Levitan as having a greed for money and a lust for power, a man who reasoned that the only way to get these things was to got rid of Kivney. and to do this, he reasoned, there shoiild be a change in the administration'.

Complained to DePaaqiiale ..Mr. Hodgson told the Jury that

I/evltan was acquainted with Patsy DePa.sqivale. professional bond.sman, who had "balled out a co\iple of his hoys." Iv'vltan complained to TJePasquale that the Spellacy administration was putting him out of business and Levitan wanted to know what the chances were for a change, and was advised the chances looked good. Levitan agreed to do what he could. The Jury was told of s aeries of conferences, at one of which Levitan expreased a desire to meet Ward, the Republican bans, Hodgson said DePnsquale went to City hall and told \Vard what Levitan wanted. "Ward was under no misapprehension of what Levitan desired," Mr, Hodgson s.ild. Levitan had agreed to furnish money and assistance and Ward accepted. Levitan at the race track In New York had won abo\it $2,700 and at a meeting between Levitan and DePnsquale, he handed over $2,500 to DePas- qualc "with no strings attached." ThLs money, according to .Mr. Hodgson, was to be lused, according to Levitan, to "buy DePas- quale."

Next came the payoff, Mr. Hodgson said. The Republican.s

to It that this was put out of business.

Mr. Hodgson related the Incident o f a phone call that the club was to be Visited by the vice squad and the promoters told to get the liquors out. The visit was to have been on Thursday and all was quiet In the club on that day but the squad did not arrive until Saturday and ns a result Ray was arrested for violation of the liquor law. The ss'slatant state’s attorney said that Ray Immediately saw Ward for advice and Ward suggested the name of sn attorney to represent him. In police coiirt. Ray was fined $100, but no final disposition made and later the fine waa remitted. Ray did not pay a nickel, Mr. Hoirlgsoit said. Later when McKenzie and Rsy read In the newspapers tfiat W.nrd was retiring from poll tics, th e y Immediately went down to see Ward, who verified the report. Mr. Hodgson said the men immediately went to see Kennedy, "not another Republican leader, but the police officer who was charged with putting them out of business." p

Mr. Hodgson told of the clubs operated by Barnes In 1944 when liquor was sold without s permit and card and crap games played during Jhc period when he waa making collections for Ward.

Taken To Meet I.«vitanThe next branch on the tree was

that of Anthony Grimaldi, who rented a place on Main atreet from Harry Yellln, Mr. Hodgson said. Grimaldi had been open only a short time when he received a call from one of Levitan's hench-

Grimaldi said he had two partners, but Levitan said, "W e'll take care of them. How much do you need?" Grimaldi mentioned 1300 and Levitan provided the money and after the games got going, he not only paid o ff the money but split profits with Levitan. When it became necessary to change the location of the club, Grimaldi told Levitan he netded help, and Ches- ler appeared on the scene and business "perked up," according to i Mr. Hodgson. i

Pokes Not Intended To Give Truman Help

Damage to Political Future as Result of Ickes’ Blast Will Be Shown in Time

Attaint Honor Roll♦ -

By James MarlowWashington, Feb. 14—(JO—Sec

retory Ickes, realgning from the cabtfMt, took p<Ae8 at President Trunuui. !

IThey were not Intended to help '

Mr. Truman’s political future. Time win show what damage. If any, they did.

There may be a lesson In democracy In Ickes’ manner o f going: The freedom of any man to get up to speak his peace about the president.

Ammunition for Critic*But his statements provided

ammunition for Mr. TSaiman’a critics. And probably there waa not much comfort In them for Mr. Truman’s friends.

They added more woe to Mr. Truman’s other woes of which, at the moment he has plenty.

(The White House In the past week has been In a whirl, tr^ng to find a way to nettle the steel strike, prevent'future strikes, pacify labor and business, and get the country rolling again.)

Ickes’ going is one less link—It was a big link—between Mr. Truman and the people’ -with whom President Boosevelt surrounded himself.

Ickes was sn original member of the Roosevelt cabinet. Henry Wallace, now secretary o f commerce, is the only member of thst original Roosevelt cabinet of 1933 left now.

Speeded Breaking LinkBut Mr. Truman didn’t try to

delay breaking this link. In fact, he speeded it up.

Ickes, writing his letter o f resignation Feb. 12, said he’d stick around until March 31 to clear up odds and ends, if Mr. Truman Wished.

Mr. Tniman told him to quit to- aaorrow, Feb. 16.

Wallace probably can stay. If he wishes. He has had the strong support of the CIO Political Action committee and other so-called liberal forces, both of which were big factors In the Roosevelt-Tru- man election o f 1944.

These forces cannot be Ignored easily by the Truman administration which, like the Republicans, already must be thinking of the 1948 elections.

There hss been jilenty of criticism o f Mr, Truman for some o f the men he has appointed to positions close to him. Ickes called some o f his selections "regrettable and unfortunate.”Akaost Strictly Mlosowl GroupThe group closest to Mr. Tn i

man la almost strictly s Miasouri group, friends of his from hla own state ot Miasouri. The Hst o f hla Missouri appointments includes:

Reconversion Director Snyder; Btabilisatlon Director Collet; Surplus Property Administrator Sym ington; Charles G. Ross, his press secretary: Cheater Davis, a member o f Snyder’s advisory b ^ rd ; Brigadier General Vaughan, his military aide; Commodore Varda- man, his Naval aide.

George Allen, a Miaslsslppiaa but close friend, haa Just been named to the Board o f Directors of the Reconstruction Finance corporation.

Mr. Truman appointed hla bid Senate mate from Misaouri, Bennet Clark, who was defeated for .re- elecUop, to the Federal Court of Appeals. He named Gen. Omar Bradley, another Mlaaourian, as veterans administrator.

Robert Hannegan, poatmaater general and chairman o f the Dem ocratic Natiimal committee, la also a Missourian, and one of the men

AsosUs TslboFa Price Views

Bridgeport, Feb. 1 4 ^ P )—Peter Bcnard. president of the Central Labor union lias assailed views expressed by Rep. Joseph E. Talbott (R.. Conn.) on price control before the Chamber o f Commerce here. Quoting Talbot aa saying continued control over prices was essential to avoid rampant inflation, Benard said the congressman was indulging in sonj e "wishful thinking" when he referred in "one breath to the dangers of runaway Inflation" while oaying in another that he "favored 'a bit of inflation’ for several months through the removal of price controls." Talbot failed, Benard said, to substantiate his “ surmise" that prices would not skyrocket nor that inflation would last for a short period o f time.

Russia And America

m

E It ia Ume to Uke g freah and [l tncluaive look at the problem of where gtand with Ruaata. The

V factor which dicUtca that auch a raiU>praiaal Miould be made now

b ia the character and the meaning >! o f the campaign apeeches Stalin

and hla aaaociatas delivered in the I recent Soviet electiona, Perhape ki' tliay were to aome degree merely ” campaign apacchea. Perhaps they

ware not completely accurate forecast o f Ruaaian policy. But,

H until tha oppoaitc haa been proved ji and demonstrated, we must as I aume ^ t the Soviet leaders

maant what they said.W e must, therefore, first take

what Russia haa offlcUlly aet as bar own policy. Next, we must take what the similar recommendation of American, leaders for American policy have been. Finally, we must put the two together, place In relatlonahlp to each other the prospective future policies of these, the world's two greatest nations, and see what we get.

What Russia has aet for herself, In the speech o f Stalin and others, ta a clear proposition. Stalin forecast three five year plans for Russia. He described the fundamental goal of these five year plans aa the building of mlliUry aacuiity for Russia. Although Russia baa a crying need for the

'good things of life, Stalin told hts country It must. In these postwar yaars, continue to sacrifice. Guns come first. Butter Is last, hardly laantioncd. '

Other speakers forecast for RuasU a first class Navy, presumably capable of competing with ours, just as Stalin’s ateel and oU and coal goals were set to compete with our war Industry capaoity.

• But .it can all be summed up in the statement that Russia plans to spend the next fifteen years, at least, in building up her owm military strength.

the throat of Rusela. They are seeking, leas publicly but no less realistically, a base in Iceland, and base! In Canada, which would enable us to look down upon Russia from the Atlantic side, of the world.

And our leaders have told us that they are planning these things only hi the interest! of our own security, only in the interests of world peace.

But to the outside world, these programs ran only add up to a picture of an America which Is beginning to feel the Imperialistic urge.

There la one vital difference between the Russian program and the American program, in Rueala,

I the program is announced by leaders and carried out by Internal policy and diplomacy abroad, and that ia that. In this country, there is opposition to the American imperialistic program, oppoal- tlon based on the contention that America will be promoting not peace but war by such .policies opposition based on the contention that the world must head towards collective security and disarmament if it ia to survive. But such contentions cannot live very long I f It becomes apparent that Russia is engaged in a hard and fast program of military and Imperialistic aggrandisement from which she cannot be turned or persuaded. ' I f there la no hope of changing Russia's plans, all of us perforce will have to approve the permanent and grandiose militarization of this coimtry too.

So there la where we stand at the moment. Put announced Russian policy together with prospective American policy, and you have but one answer. That answer Is the final war. Let Russia peralat In her determination to apend the next fifteen yeara trying to match ua In military strength, and let us turn ourselves Into a militaristic nation in order to answer what we think Is the threat of Russian policy, and war la not problematical or probable. It Is certain.

That is where we stand today Whe/& do we go from here? Is this war inevitable? Or ere there routes to peace?

got out of his persistence In the appointment o f Eklwln Pauley to be Under Secretary of Navy la a reputation for misguided end blind loyalty to s political friend. Everything else In the ledger is on the side of loss, loss for him personally and politically, and loss for the country.

Now tnat double loss is increased In the resignation of Sec- retaiy of the Interior Ickee, and 111 President Truman's churlish acceptance of that resignation at a date earlier than Mr. Ickes suggested. The departure of Mr. Ickes is a loss to government, and a loas to tha American people. The curmudgeon may have enraged many by the sharpneas of his

It wsa conceded that Mr. Alcorn could have the place If he wanted it. ahd it was first assumed thst he would went It. Then there was the discussion of whether or not a state's attorney should hold siirh practical political office. Mr. Alcorn revealed that he would not accept election to the post, and was praised for his decision. State Finance Commissioner J'ames Lowell, apparently entertaining no qualms about the propriety of mixing Btate finance responsibilities with political responsibilities, did take the post. •

Last week, In the Hartford ronsplrary trial In which Slate's | Attorney Alcorn Is prosecuting, ! there rame very clear proof of

i* how wise and appropriate it had : been for him to refuse a new '

political office.in the conspiracy trial last

week, Harry J, Ward, former Republican boss of Hartford and alleged central figure In the alleged conspiracy, was tesUfylng in his own behalf. Uni'er the guidance of his defense counsel, he came up to a moment he and his lawyer must have been anticipating with some relish.

A fter he became a city assessor. Ward testified, be held no official position in the state or city organizations of the Republican partv But he was, he admitted, active in

sort of “advisory committee’* to the Republican State Central Committee. He responded gladly to questions as to his associates on this “ advisory committee." They Included, he said, from Hartford County, former State Senator Frank Simmons of Thoijfipson- vllle, State Liquor Control Com- mtssloner John T. Dunn, Jr., the late Frank E. Healy, and State s Attorney Hugh M. Alcorn, Jr.

Now, obviously enough, since he Is on trtol and Mr. Alcorn Is prosecuting him, Mr. Ward’s pollttral association with the state’s attorney has not paid very haadsome dividende. It haaii’t saved him.What Mr. Ward and his lawrycr

got exit of it was merely a chance to contribute to the embarrassment of the state’s attorney. Perhaps they hoped, too, that the revelation of Mr. Ward’s distinguished associations In the past would >be a sort of Indirect piece of character teatlmony for him. Had not this alleged conspirator and the upright state’s attorney been engaged in common cauee? That, we suppose, was the attempted inference.

Wherever and whenever there la a state’s attorney In politics, there are those who assume that such association means some degree o f immunity for them, and they tend to hold the prestige and the dignity of the office cheaply until, aa In the Hartford case, they find they are mistaken. Mr. Alcorn’s decision not to expose himself to additional and more direct political associations stands ss good and wise and proper.

Finance Board Disapproves Bonds

Hartford. Feb. 14—(A’)—Alder- manic votes for a 31 3-4 mill tax rate based on g $900.00 refunding bond issue were killed yesterday when the Finance board voted unanimously to disapprove the refunding.

This means that the Common Council, which approved the levy Monday, through solid Republican support and against Democratic opposition, now has a 31 3-4 mill budget requiring expendlturea amounting to 34 mills. ^

Members of the Finance board indicated -that, since the council appears to be against the 84 mill levy, recommended by thla body, the aldermen must cut expenditures if they Intend to operate at 31 3-4 mills.

Not far away, we entered a cleared space on one side by a banana and bamboo thicket.

Marchers Dying F**t "In there," Ball remarked,

“bodies were piled— they were thick. VVe had gone far enough when we reached here so that the marchers were very weak and dying fast."

An automobile license plate, la- sued in these Islands In 1941, was flanked by an old and battered piece of American Army mesa- gear.

“ Some kid probably threw th it away aa too much to carry,” remarked Ball. “ We didn’t need meas kits . . . there wasn’t any food.”

It was with considerable difficulty that Major Tiadelle located the shell-splintered rulna of a achoolhouae in Balanga where General Homma received General King and himself for the capitulation of Bataan forces.

“ So that’s what happened that day In this yard." ahe exclaimed after viewing the picture.

"You see, we never got newspapers after the surrender, General Homma was quartered In this building and we saw him with American officers, but we dldn t know what they were doing-even though we could guess."_________

Sock and Buskin’s presentation o f the populkr -stage and screen myatery drama, “ Arsenic and Old Lace," delighted an audience that filled High school hall laat night. It waa the first o f two performances of the three-act play, and as la the custom at these annual productions, particularly on opening nights, High school students turned out In full force and roundly applauded every speech and scene that appealed, to them, aometimes making it difficult for aome of the principals, hitherto unused to such a large ahd sympathetic audience, to determine whether to pause or to continue their dialogue.

The second presentation of "Ar? aenlc and Old LSce" will be given at High school hall tomorrow evening and again the buainesa staff and faculty advisers are obliged to make the announcement that no seats wjll be available at the door.

Excellent PerformanceThe ca.st, several of whom have

aopoared in previous annual plays of Sock and Buskin, did remarkably well. They have been-rehearsing for weeks under the canable direction of Mrs. Helen I ^ e Skinner of the High school faculty, and great credit la due not only to Mrs, Skinner but to the amateurs themselves for their zeal In striving to produce a play more difficult, In the opinion of many people, than any heretofore attempted.

Good Supporting OastWhile the laurels ahould go to

Don Hall, star of laat season’s play, "The FlghUng Littles," for hla dramatic Interpretation o f a difficult and heavy role, he had a strong supporting cast; for example. the ease and naturalness with which the spinster aunties (Irene Benson and Jean Wilton, ’47) played their parts, aurpilsed everyone. However, those who are Interested In an excellent detailed account of the play, wlll^lnd It on another page o f today's Herald, written by Phyllla Karlin.

A word o f praise should be given to those in charge o f the stage settings. The enUre action Ukes place In one living room scene of the Brewster home. The attractive wall hangings were aet o ff with draperies In plain rose, and rose and cream color. The dooiA and the open staircase were In •a deep shade o f the aame color, and toe chairs, mirror and other plecea of furniture were of the Victorian era.

The music furnished by the High school orcbeatra. under the direction of William Vadera added much to the enjoyment of the program.

Crack Units WiU Repair Test Ships(Contlaued from Page One)

Joint task force s ill be prepared to caiTy on 20 major repair operations almultaneoualy at Bikini atoll, making it virtually unnecea- ■ary to bring bomb-damaged ■hips back to Pqarl Harbor In order to ready them for toe second teat.

Giant Laboratory Experiment Task force experts said the

plana for quick repair o f damaged target ships emphaoizs va point they have been making—Ahat toe Bikini atbll trial ia a giant laboratory experiment rather than a simulated battlefield effort to destroy all targets at one*.

Acting under specific orders from the joint chiefs of ataff, the task force haa arranged what It hopes will be a program of graded destruction, ranging up from neg- jigible damage to deotrucUon. Here is how the toak force thinks the pattern of damage may shaper—

First teat—bomb exploded a few hundred feet above the anchored Urget ahipa In the atoll. Topside damage to auperatructures and above-water portions o f hulls from blaak pressure and heat waves emitted by the bomb.

Hnge Tidal Wave Expected Second test— bomb exploded at

aurfpee level. Worst damage exp ec ts to come from a huge tidiri wave, possibly as high aa 100 feet, created when toe surface faJaat depresses and pushed outward the water around the bomb burst

Third and final teat— bomb exploded at another alts and in aev- eral thousand feet o f water. The

object la to plant the explosion deep under the target fleet so that water-tranamltted preaeuro will drive In toe hulls of ahipa.

Task force oIBclala say that even If the specially encased and fuaed bomb needed for the third, deepwater test, were ready (and It la only In the plannlft phase) this experiment would not be tried first. The reason; All the target ships might be destroyed, leaving no chance to aeeeea damage results.

Expect Violent Bolling Action Task force ofllciaU emphasize

this point: 'The underwater teat ia not expected to create a tidal wave but only a violent boiling action at the surface.

The actual site for the third test haa not been chosen, hut probably will be In one o f tMe Popifle ocean "deeps" far removed from Inhabited shores, steamer lanes or commercial fin ery areas.

Ghiiie8e Dislike Soviet Treaty


ahe won’t be required to pay any more than ahe ia willing to pay.”

Chungking Not Conaulted It asserted that the Big Three

decided matters affecting <3hlna Without consulting Chungking. It declared that czarist Russia acquired rights in Manchuria under the treaty of 1896 "but the treaty Itoelf and all rights Riiaaia enjoyed under It were declared null and Void by the Soviet government which now claims them back. . . . In any case, Manchuria ia part of Chineae soil and should be restored to (Chinese sovereignty.

"W e aincerely hope that the taking over o f Manchuria will proceed smoothly and Soviet troops win withdraw. We’ve paid whatever price we were required to pay fly toe Yalta conference and we will carry out the Slno-Soviet treaty with good faith In order to bolster up everlasting friendship and cooperation with the Soviet union.”

First Presentation Is ‘Put Over’ to l!a|iacity,

. Appreciative AiHlienee —Credit Given for AidThe thrill of action paralleled

the hilarity of rip-roaring comedy in the three-act farce, •"Arsenic and Old Lace," by Joaeph Kesael- ring, preaented by Sock and Buskin under the direction of Mra. Helen Page Skinner. The first of the scheduled performances took place last night in the High school hall before a capacity and thoroughly appreciative audience.

A well-wrttten play is a strong foundation for any presentation, but it remalna for the actors to "put over" the apparently insignificant details that make a finished performance. And "put it over" they did!

Irene Benson and Jean Wilson, '47. aa the sweet, harmless-appearing. old Brewster slaters, have poisoned twelve men to “end 4helr sad. lonely Uvea poor dears!" en-, acted their roles as realistically a s , they were costumed to represent them. The quaintness of their roles can perhaps be expre.nsed by the scene In which preparation.s for funeral services, which includ- , ed change of dress, hymns, and prayers, for their latest victim took place.

Their bugle-blowing, forever "charging" nephpw, Teddy (Ernest Kritzmacher. '461 \mwitting1y helps the aunts to dispose of the bodies. Thinking he is Theodore Roosevelt. Teddy "digs locks for the Panama Canal" (situated In the cellar of the very Victorian house). As Teddy, Ernest provided a good deal of the comedy throughout the play, "charging" through his ridiculous-to-the sublime part with the greatest ease.

The members of the very unusual Brewster household probably wculd have died with their Secret undiscovered had not their nephew, Mortimer Webster (Don Hall) a successful play critic, stumbled across one of the bodies. Don took advantage of his extremely versatile part to present, for the second consecutive year, a smooth, poised portrayal. The role qt Mortimer might have seemed rather "rugged" while being all trussed with rope during his entanglement.s with

Credit Due!

The heartfelt appreciation of the entire cast of "Arsenic and Old Lace" was expressed to Mrs. Skinner who ably coached the prcMiuctlon and who was taken ill the night before the perfoiniance.

Mrs. itkinner, unable to teach on Tuesday because of her illness, braved the consequences by coming down to school for • the final rehearsal of the play. Even without Mrs. Skinner’s prc.sence at tha Wecl- neaday night performance, the cast did their parts splendidly.

audience is left to decide whether things turned out for the bo.st with the' two aunts ready to poison i tkeir next visitor. Mr. Wither- ; spoon (John Pallcinl. j

Contrast again provided interest In the case of the policemen. Jack Shea, as Officer O’Hara, portrayed the dumb, tongue-lashed cop as if in sympathy with the fictionary characters' hard lot; while Don Klemer harked and roared as realistically as any tough lieutenant.

Earl Snow, as the Rev. Dr. Harper, the strict cILsciplinarian and John Pallein in the role of the tight-lipped superintendent of Happy Dale, the sanitarium, did Justice to their parts by their lifelike enactments. The ideal victim, Mr. Gibbs, lonely and aged, was effeqtively portrayed by Carl (Sandy) Hansen. Hia facial expression and actions added s hilarious interlude for the audience.

But perhaps the person who had the most thanklees part was the corpse in the form of Leonard Johnston. Not only did he have to-remain in the window seat for lengths of time, but he had to be dragged in and out of this uncomfortable stage prop a few times.

Since a flnishaicl performance, especially one as successful ns last night’.s requires much inside work, much credit ahopld be' given to Miss Marx McAdams, faculty Business Advi.^r; MLss 'Thelma Shew, faculty advi.-ter for Publicity: and John Pallein, , student Business and Publicity Chairman.

Joe spent two years overseas as a member of the Eighth Armored Division. During that time he was in England. France, Luxembourg. Belgium, Holland, Czechoslovakia and Germany. Of these countries he found that living rondltions were best in Germany and Holland, and that Germany was the most up-to-date country.

When asked about the attitude of German civilians toward Americans. he replied that the older men didn’t mind, but that most of the trouble was eaused by the younger men. "The children arc pro-Nazi ‘ Joe •stated, "but they can be reeducated. even though it will take a long time."

Phyllis Karlin, *46.,

Sometime during the past few years there seems to have been I discovered a new group of people in America—the Teen-Agers, who have lately been put tn this special category because of the not entirely accepted peculiarities In dress, conduct and ideas.

There are many people who view a young person in his teens as standing vei^ near the edge of the black pit, and believe it requires great diplomacy to maneuver him away from It. Numerous articles have been written urging careful thought In the treatment of such 4:hildren in their teens, almost as If they were neuro- phsyciatrlc patients Instead of normal American boys and girls.

There are many things which mark the typical teen-ager in adult minds. Among them are; the over-size sweaters and soiled saddle shoes worn by the girls, the too-casual clothes of the boys, the slang of both, the colorful Jalopies owned by many high school

I boys, the tendency of girls to ‘ swoon over Van Johnson and Frank Sinatra, and their love of juke-boxes and swing music. All of these things have convinced adults that teen-agers are irresponsible persons interested solely in Joy-riding, jltterbugging and dating.

Many well-meaning, very respectable American citizens cannot stretch their Imagination far enough to conceive where these strange, too stratght-forw'ard. too independent, too worldly adolea-

I cents come from. What an Ill- destined nation will be America governed by such a generation as this which has sprung up out of nowhere they think.

In view of these things many people would probably be surprised to learn that these irresponsible youngsters in the recent time of war and in the present striving for peace have made it their business to become as well- informed as possible about what goes on in the world through newspapers and radios and have been obsen’ing and analyzing the situations and the actions of those in authority.

It would be enlightening to those who doubt that the meml^rs of the younger generation are aware 6t the gravity of their position as the future governing body of the United States if they could see the great numbers of them who attend the forums held in many schools and hear the questions they ask and the arguments they give the best-informed and ablest^speakers In the country. ■

Here in our own school recently a rebate was held on the question of, compulsory military training. The speakers held, everyone’s interest and attention. When the au dience was admitted to the discussion, many students rose and presented opinions which showed that they had given the question much thought. Indeed there were so many people who wished to enter into the discussion that the principal had difficulty in ending the assembly on time..

Skeptics would learn, if they could listen in on school discussions of current problems, that Teenagers can think for themselves, that they know what they shojild do and will make every effort to do i t

Rulhle McLagan can best be identified by a am ile-a warm, broad smile. Add to this a pretty face, trim /Igurs, and refreshing personality and you’ve got—well, you’ve got Ruthie McLagan! It isn’t only her appearance though, that made her rate in the Legion of Honor polls. More than that. It’s her ability to make -friends— and keep them!

Heading Ruthie’s list of extracurricular activities is the Choir, in which she has participated throughout her High achool career. Biology Club (vice president). Library Club and Somanhis (asaiat- ant editor ( also have kept her time occupied. Partial to bowling, dancing, ice skating, dill pickles and ice cream (watta combination!), she is negatively inclined only to getting up in the morning.

I The year 1947 will probably find Ruth working in the Manchester Trust Company as a bookkeeper. In fact, she’a already had a head start, having worked there after school a year already.

Veterans Enroll IJniisiially Fast

According to Charles Hurlburt, the Veterans program at M. H. S. has developed much faster than had been visualized. When the program was established a month ago. the enrollment consisted of only 15 men. At the present time. 60 veterans are enrolled In the course.

Inquiries have been received by Mr. Hurlburt and Mr. Allbrlo from all corners of the globe, from veterans who plan to enroll In the course when they are discharged. The program la not limited to Manchester men, as several boys from Rockville attend the classes. New students are arriving at the rate of three or four men a week.

The Veterans program In Hartford has also been developing rapidly. Only three men were enrolled when the course was started, but 250 are now taking part in that program. Jack Shea, '46.

Fashions, Makeup, Hair Subjects in Notebooks Of Home>£c Students"Good Grooming" la the topic of

notebooks which Mlaa Charlotte Gillette’s Home Economics 1 classes recently completed. Some students selected ofie topic, essential for good grooming, such as posture, and centered their entire notebooks In which' each essence was adequately, summarized. Because of this the subjects of the notebooks were varied but each girl teemed to agree that posture, skin-care, the correct use of makeup. fashions^ qleanllneaa, dally care of clothes, anid correct styling and care of hair were especially Important to the well-groomed person.

Joan Stratton chose fashions, which included hats, school clothes, coats and accessories, for the subject of her notebook. She distinguished between the tall and short girl, as to the styles each should W'ear. Joan also said, girls should dress according to their personality. and gave examples of four types. Ingenue, exotic, romantic, and gargoii.

Hair and fashions were two subjects dominating Janette Teas- dale’s notebook. In her notebook were illustrated spring and summer styles exclusively, while articles pertaining to physiology, care of. structure, and the color and texture of hair tended to make her book a most interesting one.

"Beauty Through Cleanliness" with the title of Carol Bobyk's notebook which Included a daily and weekly cleanliness chart.

Both Elaine Tedford and Diana Shapiro made notebooks based on good posture. Diane illustrated the fact that poise Is one of yje benefits of good posture. Among the information secured by Elaine was a section devoted to the Improvement ofapoor posture. Both girls agreed t ia t to stand, ait. and walk erect Was a good rule to remember.

The following are the people who alto made informative notebooks an good grooming: La Verne Groe- bal. Emerlse Petijean. Theresa Phaneuf, Marjorie Phelps, Margaret Piercy, Lorraine Pillard. Joaa Pinto, Ruth Rubenthaler. Audrey Sandberg. Anita Schmidt. Mary Small. Ellen Smith. Ethel Taylor, Ivy Thrall, Ethel Wler.

AU the notebooks were appropriately Illustrated and all had originally designed covers, some of which were on the novel side. Much of the Information for the notebooks was secured through the source of teen-age magazines.

these days of college crowding, Trinity’.college is establishing extension courses a t freshman level which will be open to both men and women, according to a letter received this week by Principal Efiaon M. Bailey.

"All courses '*111 carry degree credit," statea the letter from Prof. Irwin A. Buell, director of Extension Goursea. Trinity College, "The classes will be so arranged that a student can arrange for a full fifteen-eemeater-hour schedule each semester, thus eecuring full credit for s year of collega work. This credit will be entered on Trinity’q records and wyi be transferred to another college whenever the student 80 requests."

AU classes will meet during' the late afternoon and evening, Mon day through Friday, in Boardman Hall on the campus, Mr. Buell aays. ■ >

A tentative schedule of clsssea will include: English A, Biology A, HUtofy 1, Spanish 1. French French S, PlDlchology 1. Economics 1. EngUah Uteratiire. Mechanical Drawing, Geology, History 3.

The extension courses can probably lake care of 160 local etud ents this way. , .

raees in his bare feet and elated that this is a great help In actual conpetittiMi. The .BAA ia 'all running, therp, la abaolutaly no walking. , Walkers pro disqualified, so again one can see the eendition th« human body has to be in In order to cover the distance.

• entered waa in Georgiaville. R. I.,. over a six mile course. The meet-* was supposed to be only a few of unknowns like Robblna. It turned cut that Farrar, Tarzan Brown and other favorites were in the field. Farrar won with Robbini tecond.

Asked If he waa ready to retire I or if he had given it any serious i thought he answered that the best f nmning yeara for distance runners la when they are between 30 and 40 years of age. That sndw) the rc- tlrejnent question.

to to love, not to be loved; to give, not to got; to serve, not to be ••rved. —Hugo Black.

Down in New Orleans a patriotic civilian noticed a sad looking soldier standing outside the Pelicans' hall park, and evidently determined to cheer him up by talking In the khakl-clad lad’s own language:

Patriotic Civilian—Say, <5)rpor- al, what time does the game start this afternoon — 1400 hours or 1480?

Soldier (doffing hla hat, acratch- ing hia head. In pure beautiful Brooklyneae),—Far as I make out. Bub, i commences at free toityi

The nice thing about having a friend Is that you can always borrow a dollar from him. TTie bad part is the fellow alwaya thinks he can borrow a dollar from you.

Hal—Why ain’t you going with Marge any more?

Jim—Well, she wasn’t pretty, didn't have no money, and m arri^ John Doe. So I Just took the advice of my friends and dropped her.

Do right and fear no man; don’t write and fear no woman.

It Can Be DoneHave you noticed that the more

you do, the more you are able to accomplish ?

The world’s leaders have proven this beyond dispute. They ad vanced from one peak to another— each Just a little higher than'the last.

It took courage, and faith and immense patience, but all leaders have these In abundance. Possibly, that is why they lead.

I looked at the clock In the upper hall and was aiirpriaed that it was only 9 o’clock. The time for the parade to form, I thought. Somehow I couldn’t comprehend ita taking place with everj^ ing here in this house so different from what had been planned yesterday, and yet it was only life here at Cliff's Edge that bad changed. v

Dr. Bertolette stopped off at the

I thing, "These people are hla kind," and I knew what it meant There had been much opposition to Jeffrey Healetfa being district attorney because of the silver spoon adage that had been tacked to him by the other political party, imd I realised that these men felt that here waa eomethlng tost would be covered up and for that reason they were already antagoola- tlc. Jeffrey went on to explain that these men were the county_ _ _ ______ ____ wore

and I went down the back stalra to the kitchen to see bow cook and the girls were reacting. 1 was Just in time to beer Sereh say, 'And after thaL bee-Ieeve me, I wasn’t a bit aurprised. There wasn’t a one in this house .She stopped, end I said, “Go ahead, Sarah, flnisb what you were saying."

'It wasn't nothing. Miss Har- rold," she said. I t ^ them nut to do the rooms on the third floor and that If they wanted to take the day off, as had been promised them, they should go ahead and

could manage the meals, for the family, but the three of them declined. Tile excitement in town, I suppose, wouldn’t hold e candle to what was happening in the house.

I got back to the living room Just as Dr. Bertolette came down the stairs. He took me by the arms and looked at me carefully. He said, "You’ll do, Nana. And Jenny la holding up pretty well, but watch Betsy. She seems to be in a state of euppreased excitement that is, I think, worse than shock.”

Before he had a chance to say any more, Jeffrey Heslett came In. This ie Jeffrey’s first year as district attorney and he .was more nervous than any of us. His parents are close friends of Stephen and Jenny Willson. There were two men with him, one a bulky package of a man, about 60, with

great shock of white hair, and the other one was a little gray man who made me think of a squirrel because of the lyay hla eyes darted from one thing to an-

Ing up everything inthe room.

Zern.Coroner Smith told his story

concisely and Jeffrey interrupted only once to eey to Fletch, "You shouldn’t have moved her, Fletch. I can underotanfl your doing it, but it makes it rather, bad."

When Smith had finished, Jeffrey asked, "Haven’t you any idea where Phillips W’ent yesterdav, Fletch?"

“The reports are coming in more accurately since we put that dummy at the entrance 1'*

W’e went into the library where Mr. Willson, Fletch and Uncle Andrew were sitting with Smith, the coroner.

"I'm mighty sorry about this, Fletch,” Jeffrey Hazlett said. "I ’ll try to make the whole thing as brief as possible, and no more unpleasant than absolutely necessary."

I saw the little man radio a message wlUi his eyes to the big man. It said as plainly as any-

Fletch qlmply shook his head and Jeffrey turned to the rest of us. I looked at Uncle Andrew and he looked at Mr. Willson, and Mr. Willson said, "None of us know where she went yesterday, Jeffrey. My son saw her at 4 o’clock and no one saw her after that."

Zero Interrupted, "She couldn't have laid there at the foot of that cliff before dark; somebody would have seen her, but she could have been dropped off after dark. Any Idea, Smith, whether she might have been dead when she went over that cliff?”

Smith said, "No. I won’t know that until Dr. MacDonald gets here."

Dr. Bertolette Interrupted, "I’m certain she wasn’t."

"We’ll have to wait and see," Zero countered, and I thought it was time the subject was changed, so I said, “ Fletcher wasn’t the only one who saw her at 4." 1 saw Fletcher’s frantic glance In my direction and I wanted to smack him. What did he think I was going to say? "I saw her. too, here in the library, 1 saw Fletcher leave about 15 minutes later, .and I didn't see Phlllipa again, hut I did hear her go past my room on the way to her own room on the third floor some tlnw after 5. And," I added, "she had changed. At 4 o’clock she was sUll In a riding habit. She had a pale blue linen dresa on< when we found her.”

Zern just grunted, and Mr. Will- son said, "We looked fo r ‘ her »at dinner-time but both she and hbr car were gone."

"Is her car here now demanded.

Uncle Andrew answered. "No. It wasn’t in the garage when 1

Zero looked at Straub and Straub at Zern. They both bad l-told-you-ao expreaatona. "Nlca idea,"« Straub aald. Ha had been watching Mr. Willson with kind of a troubled expreosion for some time, and .now he spoke directly to him. "I’m aurprised nobody has suggeated aha might have Jumped off that cliff."

I sat back weakly. Why hadn’t we thought of that!
