Joseph Greu Supports
Bilateral Agreements

NEW YORK, Jan. 17.-lUP)-
Undersecretary. of State Joseph c.
Grew tonight discounted fears that
bi-lateral pacts in Europe signal
a return to ''balance of power"
politics and said unequivocally
that they are consistent with prin-
ciples of the Dumbarton Oaks
world security proposals.
Without naming them, he APP
parently referred to the French
Soviet pact, signed during Gen.
Charles deGaulle's visit 10 Moscow
last month, the Soviet-Czech pact
signed in December, .943, and the
Anglo-Soviet pact signed in June,
1912.
Americans need not be disturbed
that because of those pacts that
"our Allies are falling out of step
with u.s." he said.
After careful study of those
agreements, we are SATISFIED that
they were concluded in the spirit
OF what we all are trying to
achieve through the Dumoarton
Oaks proposals. ne said.
He appealed to Americans to
avoid defeatism in the field of in
ter-national relations and urged
them to get out into the race and
run rather than withdraw at the
staring gun and criticize from the
sidelines.

|NANETTE COMES
HOME TO CREW

BOSTON, Jan. II. -UP) A
saucy mongrel mascot named
Nanette was returned Today to 400
oyerioyed French sailors who had
taken legal steps to recover her
before weighing anchor.
Nanette was relinquished by Mr..
and Mrs. Harry G. Morris of We'll
lesley, to whom the small dog al
legedly was loaned to board, in
an out of court settlement.
Making second appeal, Sheriff
Harold S. Hanks of Norfolk county
visited the Morris home and was
given the mascot, who reputedly
understands only French.
Previously, Hanks and a seaman
from the French warship were re-
fused by the Morrises who claimed
the dog had been given to them
not loaned.
The sailors filed a bill in equity
in Superior Court here yesterday
claiming that the family became
so enamoured of Nanette that they
refused to give her up.

Popular Comedy
Slated Early
In February

As "Cradle Snatchers", the
three-act farce-comedy to be pre-
scented by the ITALIAN association,
went into the second week of re-
hearsals, local theatre enthusiasts
seemed assured of two evenings

Hall. =.
Director Margaret Darst Smith
has expressed herself as highly
pleased with the progress of the
cast, and the play promises to take
its place among the most lively
and most laughable shows ever
presented by the local cast.
When "Cradle Snatchers" was
originally presented in New York
city, where it played for solid
year in the famous Music Box
Theatre, it was hailed by critics
as one of the funniest shows IN
town.
A typical comment appeared In
Graphic, which reported "Unques-
tionably the funniest play in town.

Critic George Jean Nathan wrote

the ever-reliable Times reported
."Gales of almost hysterical laugh

the production, reporting lit is the
first real hit of the season"
Cradle Snatchers'' deals with
.threewives who learn that their
husbands, when they say they are
going on a hunting trip, have 9TH
.er ideas in mind. The wives are
mot long in bringing about coun-
ter-measures, using three young
collegians as their weapons.
The play is packed with sltua-
lions that you don't expect, and the
fun mounts to a finish that lifts
the audience out of its seats.
