New Russian Difficulties
(Continued from Page D

m, PVT, today after a strenuous weekend schedule.
 After hours of debate the conn., mittee decided:
 1. To omit any mention in the charter of the right of a member to withdraw That right is con- sidered implicit.
 2. To write in provisions for ex- pulsion and suspension of members.
 3. To eliminate all reference to deputy secretaries general and to leave it up to the assembly to de- eide the length of the secretary generals term and his re-eligibility.
 The committees other major prob lem was settled early Sunday morn ing. It decided that the matter of calling conference to consider re- vision of the world charter should be placed on the agenda of the 10th annual assembly meeting if such a conference has not been held be- fore then. It also accepted the big five demand for a veto over future charter amendments.
 The intensive weekend commit tee schedule left virtually no unfi- nished business for committees: The trusteeship committee still awaits Moscow approval of some language changes in the general objectives section and another committee awaits similar go-ahead from Moscow on redraft of the plan for empowering the big five to keep the peace until the security council is equipped with the forces to so so.
 The assembly dispute is really an old one-and a basic one between the big and little powers The little powers want to make the assembly . town meeting of the world" Ehere anything can be discussed. Tie big powers wanted to limit it's Discussion to matters affecting the maintenance of international peace and security" The big powers were voted down in committee.
 Two weeks ago Russia tried to get the other members of the big five to appeal the committee deci- sion to the steering committee. But the others refused and Russia re- served her right to bring it before a public commission session.
 Late last week Russia raised the issue again. There were two days of confusion over the Importance of the issue and apparently much mis- understanding about how far Russia wanted to go in limiting the as- sembly. On Saturday, Sen. Arthur H. Vandenberg, R., Mich. urged a technical committee to accept Rus sia's proposal which ten was thought to be just limitation on recommendation.
 The issue finally was brought to the executive and steering commit tees yesterday by Soviet delegate Andrei A. Gromyko who, it was re- 1iably reported, wanted to go back to the original Dumbarton Oaks language. That would allow the as- sembly to discuss "any questions re- 1attng to the maintenance of inter national peace and security" The committee has changed that to read: '~To discuss any matter within the sphere of international rela- tons, etc"
 ! The conference executiv" commit lee yesterday set up a special Emergency subcommittee to study the problem. It was composed of Gromyko, secretary of state Edward .. Stettinius, Jr.. apd Australian Foreign Minister Herbert V. Evatt.

Politicians believe Pres ident Truman would alienate a large block of left wing supporters if he withdrew that reward now.

 The six bodies, their throats neatly slit from ear to ear, were found in a row against a wall in their cave headquarters just below the south shore of Naha bay and east of .Naha airfield.
 A member of the patrol which discovered the bodies said the admiral probably had been dead several days.

testified but I cannot accept the formula of the indictment.
 Jan Jankowski, vice-premier Of the Polish London government, said in reply to question: T am guilty of the main count"
 Fifteen of the 16 defendants were present as the trial opened in the glittering trade union hall, which was the Mobiles club before the Sov- jet revolution. The proceedings were attended also by foreign cor respondents and diplomats.
 Okulicki requested the court to call a number of Polish officers and one British officer whose name he did not give as witnesses in his be- half. The request was taken under advisement.
 The indictment charged that the group disseminated anti-Soviet propaganda through secret radio stations and also maintained con- stant contact with the London re- gime from which it received direc- tives.
 Okulicki, Jankowski and two other defendants, Adam Bien and Stanislaw Jasiukowicz, were charged with directing under ground activity and terroristic acts against the Red Army ''on instruc- tions of the so-called Polish enigre government in London"
 The second group, comprising 12 defendants, were charged with par ticipating in underground activities despite orders of the Soviet military command and disobeying orders to surrender radio transmitters, print ing shops, arms and ammunition.
 This group included Antni Paj- dak, Kazimierz Puzakn, Aleksandr Grezezinski, Kazimierz Beginski. Stanislaw Mierzwa, Stypukowski, Evgeni Czernovski, Josef Chacinski, Franciszek Urbanski, Stanislaw Michalowski, Kazimierz Koblyanski and Josef Stemler -Domski.

Governors to
 Discuss Food

Hartford Conn.,, June 18. (UP)- Gov. Baldwin announced today that he and New York Gov. Thomas E.. Dewey has arranged for joint con- ference of the governors of the 13 northeastern states to be held Fri day in New York to discuss food shortages.
 Gov. Baldwin said that i've are going to see what can be done to increase the supply of food, par ticularly meat and poultry, in this area. The condition has been par ticularly bad in Connecticut.
 He said the situation would be attacked as a joint problem in the hope of finding a blanket solution.
 As chairman of the New England governors conference, Gov. Baldwin said he had notified the governors of the other five New England states of the conference, slated to be held at Hotel Roosevelt at 10 a. m.
 Each of the governors, he said, would be expected to bring good ex- perts to the discussion to determine how to increase food supplies and to review the situation in general.

Sedition Case RetriaI
May Be Ordered for
Probably Il Accused
BY CARTER BROOKE JONES.

BY CARTER BROOKE JONES.
The Government may retry the
mass sedition case with the number
Of defendants reduced from 26 to|
perhaps less than IL, it developed
today as Justice T. Alan Colds
borough prepared to take up in Dis
trict Court defense demand for the
prosecution either to set an early
trial date or dismiss the charges.
There was no announcement at
the Justice Department, but attor-
neys there were reported sitting the
voluminous evidence with view
to cutting down the size of the case
50 that it could be tried within al
reasonable time.
Asks Speedy Disposition.
Justice Goldsborough held hear
ing two weeks ago on a motion by
James j. Laughlin, attorney for three
Of the defendants, for a speedy
disposition Of the case. The court
deferred any decision until today
indicating that meanwhile he prob
ably would confer with the other
justices of the general term. Justice
Goldsborough remarked that it'll
might be necessary to call In an out
side judge to try the case. He also
remarked, as nearly a score of de-
tense attorneys, intervening in the
Laughlin motion, clamored for rec
ognition, that If that were a sample
he wondered whether any judge and
jury could try the case.
Chief prOcacyYfpy n TohY, Doooo
told the court the Government would
not oppose the motion for a speedy
retria1, but he gave no positive indi-
cation Of the Governments inten-
ton. Lawrence Dennis, defendant |
representing himself, promptly
charged the Government with STALL
ing" expressing doubt that it intend
ed to do anything.
BiddIe May Decide.
There were reports that Attorney
General Biddle might decide to
bring as few as nine of the alleged
conspirators to trial next time, sever
ing the cases of the others. But
there was no official confirmation |
of this.
Three indictments are pending
against most of the defendants. AL
rs were named in the third indict-
ment, on which the mass trial was
held last year. 1t ended in a mis-
trial early In December when the
presiding judge, Chief Justice Ed
ward C. Eicher, died. The trial had
lasted nearly eight months and the
Government had not yet closed its
case.
Another Action Pending.
Pending before Justice Goldsbor-
ough, along with the motion for
early disposition of the whole case,
is a demand for dismissal of the
two earlier indictments, which never
have been brought to trial.
The 26 defendants are charged in
the third indictment with conspiring
to undermine the loyalty of the
armed forces. There were similar
counts in the two previous indict-
ments, but not all the present de-
PENDANTS were named in those bills,
and they accused some persons not
concerned in last years mass trial.
If the case is tried again, the Gov
eminent may elect to prosecute only
the dozen or less it regards as lead
ers in the alleged conspiracy.

Vocal Scholarship
To Elinor Ubdike
Bv Gretchen Smith

Miss Elinor Updike, 17-year-old
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Shirley
Updike of 1441 G street NE, who
will graduate from Eastern High
School next week, was awarded
81 900 vocal scholarship to Florida
Southern College yesterday by the
Washington chapter, Society of Arts
and Letters at the home of the
chairman of the Music Committee,
Mrs. Cornelius Vanderbilt Whitney,
3210 r street NV.
The announcement of the award
climaxed a dramatic moment when
five local high school girls, chosen
from "a who competed at additions
last week, stood at attention while
Mrs. Whitney made the presentation
Of song albums to the runners-up,
withholding announcement of the
winner until the last.
When the applause had sub
sided, Miss Updike was so moved
she was unable to respond imme-
diately to requests for a song. Re-
gaining her composure she took her
place next to the piano accompanist,
Mrs. Emilia Mitrani, and her rich
young mezzo contralto thrilled the
audience in singing THE Lords
Prayer"
Following the selection, each Of
the runners-up entertained with
vocal selections. Those who received
recognition honors include Peggy
Schaaff, 17-year-old student of Will
son High School, possessor of a fine
spinta voice and runner-up with
Miss Updike; Nancy Hanneman, 18-
year-old coloratura soprano, student
at Strayer College; Charlotte Dom
aldson, l8-year-old lyric soprano,
of Mckinley Technical High School,
and Helen Peeler, 16-year-old con-
tralto, Of George Washington High
School.
All of the girls will be given an
opportunity to be heard publicly in
the near future. Mrs. Stuart Cod
frey, one of the judges, and member
OF the Music Committee, as well as
organizer of music for the services,
has planned for the girls to appear
on USO-YMCA programs, the Stage
Door Canteen and over the radio.
The scholarship, the first to be
given by the Washington chapter of
the society, which hopes to sponsor
others in art, music and letters was
made possible through the gen.
erosity of Mrs. Whitney, profess
SiOnally known as Eleanor Searle
member of the Guild Board of the
Metropolitan Opera, herself a dis
tinguished concert singer.
Miss Updike will study at the
Eleanor Searle Whitney school of
music at Florida Southern College.

Whitney. former student at
