(COQClQueQ rom P3SG U
 charter has been ratified by enough countries to permit actual creation of the new world organization.
 President Truman brought the long conference to a dramatic close late yesterday afternoon with an address to the delegates. It was his first appearance before such an international gathering, and by the comments later, he was a success.
 The President urged the peace loving nations of the world to ratify the charter immediately, warning;
 There is time for making plans and there is time for action. The time for action is now"
 He also promised to present the charter to the U. s. Senate inn mediately. Reports from Washing ton said it would be next Monday. The two U. s. Senate representatives on the delegation here-Sens. Tom Connally, D., Tex, and Arthur H. Vandenberg, R., Mich.-were en route to the capital to report to the senate tomorrow and Friday. The ratification process, however, prob ably will not begin for a couple Of weeks.
 The closing session of the confer- ence was truly international in flavor. Men of many tongues spoke in their native languages and ap- pealed to the world to accept the charter. Speaker after speaker cau- tioned that what has been fashioned here is but the beginning-that 1t is up to the statesmen of the world and the people themselves to make the instrument work.
 Czechoslovak Foreign Minister Jan Masaryk delivered one of the most effective speeches. He said that the small countries need security. crave security, pray for security And then he issued this word of warning:
 Let us please stop talking of the next world war. The language one hears in certain places is lament ably unconstructive not one of LIS in this room wants another war None of us wan, the children of these selfless children of ours .. to die in another war in another generation - we want them to live and work for their respective coun- tries in peace and security in so- cially just and safe world"
 Difficult Problems
 His appeal brought loud applause from the delegates and the audi ence.
 MT. Truman admitted that inter- national problems were difficult, complicated, controversial and dan- gerous. But he cited long list of cases wherein the nations of the world have shown their ability to operate in peace as well as in war.
 What have you accomplished in San Francisco shows how well these lessons of military and economic cooperation have been learned cases wherein the nations of the world have shown their ability to co-op- crate in peace as well as in war.
 What you have accomplished in San Francisco shows how well these lessons of military and economic cooperation have been learned. You have created a great instrument for peace and security and human pro- gress in the world.
 The world must now use it!
 If we fail to use it, we shall be- tray all those who have died in or der that we might meet here in freedom and safety to creat it.
 If we seek to use it selfiShly- for the advantage of any one na- ton or any small group of nations i've shall be equally guilty of that

HUH z dSC 4/ pendence and Kansas City were ready to pull out all the stops in giving him the welcome deserving of the nations No. One hometown boy who made good"
 Once the parade through Inde- pendence is over this afternoon, the President will hold a news con- ference in the Memorial building at Maple and Pleasant and make what his aides referred to as one of the biggest announcements of his career, both in the senate and the White House.
 The conference for reporters was scheduled for p. m. (EWT). There was no clue as to the nature of the Presidents announcement. White House press secretary Charles C.. Ross would not say whether the announcement would be primarily of domestic or international interest.
 Usually reliable sources in Lon- don said they had no knowledge of any similar announcement sched- uled in the British capital. This apparently ruled out possibility of joint big three pronouncement on international affairs)
 The President left San Francisco late yesterday afternoon and ar- rived here about three hours later Gov. Herbert B. Nav, George AL bert Smith, president of the lat ter day Saints (Mormon) church and group of state Democratic officials met him.
 The President was scheduled to arrive today at the Fairfax Army airfeld on the Kansas side of the Missouri river at about 2:30 p. m. (EWT) and will proceed immedi- ately by automobile through Kansas City to Independence where he will be feted at dinner by Mayor Roger T. Sermon, and an evening cele- bration at the latter day Saints Temple in Independence.
 Tomorrow the President becomes the homecoming property of Kan saS City where his schedule includes a parade, luncheon, an honorary degree from the Kansas City School Of Law, an afternoon reception at the Muehrlbach hotel, dinner with the Kansas City reception commit tee and another homecoming cele- bration at the Municipal Auditorium that night.
 The President was highly antici- patory about his first visit home as chief executive. He was in a hand shaking mood and within the next two or three days, virtually every old friend in the Independence sec ton of Missouri was sure to see him and personally wish him well.
 MT. Truman arrived here last night in a light rain and despite a gruelling day in San Francisco, was sufficiently poppy to pop in on an Army officers dance on the roof of his hotel and to sit chatting with Utah friends until nearly mid- night.
 One of the persons who received him-Gov. Herbert B. Nav, Demo- crat-will accompany the President as far as Kansas City. Nav Is enroute to the governors conference at Mackinac Island, Mich. and had remained here to greet the Presi- | dent.
 The ides behind MT. Truman's stop at Salt Lake City was twofold 1: One, to get a good nights sleep; the other to arrange his schedule

our own constitution, will be ex- banded and improved as time goes on. Changing world conditions will require readjustments-but they will be the establishments of peace and not of war"
 Openly reassuring the little na- tions that the big powers will not seek to dominate the world by force, MT. Truman said:
 Out of this conflict come power ful military nations, now fully trained and equipped for war. But they have no right to dominate the world. It is rather the duty of these powerful nations to assume the re- sponsibiliy for leadership toward world of peace. That is why we have here resolved that power and strength shall be used not to wage war, but to keep the world at peace, and free from the fear of war.
 By their own example the strong nations of the world should lead the way to international justice"

after submarine duty in the in the Pacific, demanded that Mrs. Stevens be brought to trial.
 She said her son had been invited to the Milton home to visit Miss Faith Coombs, the nursemaid.
 That Mrs. Stevens wasn't in- vited," Mrs. Kovacs said.
 Mrs. Stevens, held on a man. slaughter charge. said she shot Ko- vacs after mistaking him for a burglar when she heard the two men in her neighbor's home while the owners were away. She told police she shot in self defense in struggle for gun which her hus- band had given her.
 State Police Lieutenant George H. Remer testified that Mrs. Stevens had been drinking. Kovacs denied that his brother was struggling for possession of the gun. He said he did not see the first shot fired, but that he saw Mrs. Stevens pump two more bullets into his borther's body as he held him in his arms. He ad- mitted that his brother had been drinking also.
 The gun involved in the staying would have been jeered in Mrs Stevens home state. It was .25 caliber pistol which throws a slug not much larger than than of .22 rifle She neglected to have some thing else that is novel in the Pan- handle country but necessary Tn Connecticut-a permit to carry the gun.
 Although Steiner said he would not return a coroner's decision until later this week, he intimated that he might be considering recom- mending that Mrs. Stevens be | turned over to the district attorney.
 He denied Goldstein's request to cross-examine Kovacs, saying the attorney would have that oppor- tunity before "a later tribunal" If Stiber decides Mrs. Stevens must answer for the shooting. he will turn her over to the district attorney, who will decide if the case will be given to the grand jury. The grand jury then would decide if she is to be indicted and brought | to trial
 Kovacs said he ran to his brother after the first shot, picked him up, and was holding him when Mrs. Stevens fired two more shots into his body.
 The only other witness before Steiber was It. George Remer, who | said Mrs. Stevens had at least ten beers a few hours before the shoot ing.
 Kovacs said that Mrs. Stevens walked into the Milton living room from the rear of the house and told the Kovacs to Get out of here"
 His brother told Mrs. Stevens they were waiting for Miss Coombs, Kovacs said. She told them Miss Coombs had gone out with another date, and Albert said that wasn't so.
 "'She's upstairs" Kovacs quoted his brother as saying. Then. Ko- vacs said, Albert walked over to the staircase. "As turned around Kovacs said. T heard a shot,"

son. William Ramsey Clark, is II
years of age and is a student at
Woodrow Wilson High School.
Mrs. Anderson has had a crowded
schedule since the beginning of the
war. She has done more than her
share of Red Cross work, working
both at the Congressional Club of
which she Is vice president and at
the Library of Congress where the
congressional women meet every
Tuesday. Tall and brunette, Mrs.
Anderson favors strictly tailored
clothes. She is skilled horsewoman.
When her husband first came to
Congress they had four of their
saddle horses sent from a ranch in
New Mexico to their country place
in nearby Maryland. But with the
scarcity of help, the Andersons
moved into their present residence
at s Wesley Circle. The horses have
been sent back to Albuquerque.
Mrs. Anderson doesn't know just
what her future plans will be. 1T
all happened SO suddenly" she said.
The family usually spend their
summers in New Mexico, but she
thinks now that they will be here
instead. The new cabinet hostess is
the former Miss Henrietta McCart-
ney. daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John
Mccartney.
Mrs. Clark is the former Miss
Mary Ramsey, daughter of Judge
William r. Ramsey of Texas. She
has the same delightful Texas
draw that her husband has. She is
4 true blond, with blue eyes, and
her husband is a brunette. Mrs.
Clark is slender and likes very
feminine attire. She has a maid
who has been with her for eight
months, but she does much of the
cooking for her little family herself.
The news of the appointment of
former Senator Lewis B. Schwell-
enbach as Secretary of Labor is be-
ing warmly received in the Capital
where he and his charming wife
have a host of friends.
Mrs. Schwellenbach made her
first appearance in Official circles as
Senate bride. She formerly was
Miss Anne Josephine Duffy of
Seattle and she had served for some
time as Mr.. Schwellenbach's secre-
tary. Her marriage to the then
Senator from Washington State took
place in Chicago, December 80, 1885.
That same year she attended her
first White House reception as a
senatorial hostess. This State func-
ton was in honor of members Of
Congress. I recall Mrs. Schwellen-
bach wore to this State party a
white satin gown which set off to
best advantage her brunette beauty.
She. of course, attracted much at

trodllced his bride tn his collea pIleS
