 England and Russia are, therefore, continuously encouraging the train ing of scientists and engineers so that postwar technological prog ress in these two countries can be assured.
 ". While the selection of an adequate number of promising young (American) students this year would not increase the supply of trained men before 1851, the continuance of policy which has already had serious effects will result in tech- nical manpower shortages which will have crippling effects on our future industrial economy and re- duce The possibility of | high level of postwar production employ ment."

Chipman Estate
 Worth $807,877

One of the largest inventories to be filed in recent years in the office of Probate Judge Patrick Healey has been filed by the administrators for the late Mrs. Sarah V. Chipman with an appraisal of the estate de- termined at $807, ,877.18.
 AS reported here previously the estate is now involved in litigation resulting from an appeal from the probate court to the superior court filed by two cousins of the testator. Mrs. Chipman died May 3, 1944.
 The appellants in the action are George Chipman of New Britain and Walter Chipman of Plymouth. The two cousins were excluded from sharing in the estate, while numerous individual bequests were made by Mrs. Chipman to other relatives and institutions.
 S3os,308 In Cash
 A summary of the estate as filed in probate court follows: Real es- tate, $317, 300; stock holdings, $91 |, 927; cash in banks, $303, 1908. .52; HUI bSdSC fIO1u1AA5o, pOo,ooo, OOAlNo, $5,524.75 and miscellaneous effects, $2,693.
 The controversy over the original will arose as result of the deceased s practice of crossing out various clauses within the document by the prosaic practice of simply draw ing an linked "X'' through each in- dividual clause. The two contest ants were included within one of the clauses so marked. Also in- cluded was the Third Congrega- tional church of this city, which would have benefited from $50, ,0OO trust fund. This, as stated, also was crossed out. The church has retained counsel to determine its part.
 Included in the court appeal of the two counsinS was a claim on the deceased's "testamentary capa- city, alleging that the late Mrs Chapman was of unsound mind and memory when her will was exc cuted. They also claim the docu- ment was not atested by three wit

New York, June 22-UP)-Col- c. V. Whitneys favored jeep and Walter M. Jeffords' disappointing two-year- old champion, Pavot, headed a field of nine entered to- day for Saturdays 77th running of the $50 0OO-added Belmont stakes, final jewel of the triple racing crown.
 The entry was larger than expect ed, principally because the four | thoroughbreds which carried off the first three places in both the Derby and the Preakness were to be kept in their barns.
 Hoop Jr., the Fred Hooper Colt which won the Rose run, bowed 8 tendon running second in the Freak ness and will be out the rest of the year. Polynesian. the Preakness win ner, was ineligible, as was Darby Dieppe, third at both Churchill Downs and Pimlico. Pot O'Luck, second in the Derby, was not ship ped east.
 That left it wide open in the Bel mont, with Jeep the choice on the basis of his victory in the Wood Memorial and the mile and an eighth Peter Pan handicap this week. But there were others willing to challenge him for the prize. Thus when they start the mile and half jaunt tomorrow Jeep. in addition to Pavot, must match strides with William Helis' Adonis, Pentagon stables the Doge, Charles S. Towards Sea Swallow, Col. E. R. Bradley's Burning Dream, Joseph M .Roebling's Wildlife, Brookfield Farms Brookfield and Belair Studs Johnsport.
 Pavote. despite his two defeats this year, was expected to rate close to Jeep on the tote board when they go. The chunky two- year-old champion of 1914, unde- feated in eight starts last season, was flumbled by PolyneSian in the Withers mile and then finished a fading fifth in the mile and three sixteenths PreakneSs. But he all ways had speed and by now may be ready to go the route.
 Johnsport and Brookfield were the surprise starters. The Belair colt has not started as three-year- old and Brookfield has shown noth- ing
 Adonis, owned by the multi-mil- honaire golden Greek from New Orleans, finished eighth in the Preakness, four positions back Of the Doge Sea Swallow, owned by the west coast automobile magnate, showed improvement in the Freak ness. The son of Seabiscuit trailed home in the Derby but finished a charging sixth in the Preakness. Burning Dream, the Bradley hopeful, was a Derby also-ran and was kept out of the Preakness by leg trouble. All that Wildlife had to recommend hi mwas third place | effort in the Peter Pan.

German Plant
 Shifts Urged
BY JOHN L. CUTTER

Washington, 5une 22-(UP)-Fi- nancier Bernard M Baruch today called for the removal or destruc- tion of all German heavy industry to break once and for all Ger many's dominance of Europe"
 Recently returned from Germany, Baruch told the senate military af- fairs committee that anything less drastic would fail completely to pro- vide the basis for lasting peace.
 He declared "Germany's war making potential must be eliminat- ed, many of her plants and factor ies shifted east and west to friend ly countries" her exports and inn ports strictly controlled, German as- sets and business organizations all over the world rooted out"
 Eventually, purged and reorgan- ized and the Europe around her made strong, Germany will be able to take her place with her neigh bors," he said.
 'The new equilibrium of indus trial strength in Europe might take the form of a United States of Eur ope in whic hGermany would be one of several peaceful equals, not the dominating war organizer"
 Baruch denied that his program mean destruction of the German people. He conceded that they would have a comparatively low standard of living for a time but said 1t would not be as low as Germany imposed on occupied countries or much lower than they assumed un- der Hitler.
 Baruch said he believed his pro- posed settlement of the German question could be used as the basis for comprehensive. all-embracing agreement with Russia on the Ma jor peace problems" because il

Guam, June 22.-(UP)-B-29 Superfortresses already credited with destroying 112 square miles Of Japans principal industrial cities, bombed five aircraft plants and a naval arsenal on the main enemy home island of Honshu today.
 Upwards of 450 of the big bomb CTS cascaded thousands of high explosive demolition bombs on the sprawling war plants from medium altitude. A new censorship policy forbade speculation on the weight of the bombload.
 Targets for the first siX-way B-29 attack of the war were the Kure naval arsenal on the Inland sea, main arsenal of the shrinking Japa- nese navy, two aircraft plants 20 miles north of Nagoya, two more in a town near Kobe, and another at Tamashima, 90 miles west of Kobe.
 The raid was the third major B-29 strike at Japan this week and raised the number of individual in- dustrial targets hit in that period to 13. In previous raids this month, the B-29s dropped 20,50O tons of bombs on Japan.
 A Japanese army communlque estimated the attacking force at 360 and claimed that 26 had been shot down or damaged. An investi- gation of damage to ground install lations was under way, the con- munique said.
 The enemy communique noted that the B-29s had begun attack ing second rate cities and wal plants situated therein"
 The 21st bomber command re- ported that a large number" of B-29s hit the Kure arsenal, which spreads over an area of $500 by 5000 feet. It manufactures guns up to 16 inches, shells and torpedoes.
 Two waves of Superfortresses hit the Mitsubishi and Kawasaki air. craft plants, 1900 feet apart in Kagamigahara, north of Nagoya. Two other formations bombed the Kawanishi aircraft plant at Himeji 9 miles west of Kobe, and the Kawasaki factory at Akashi, 10 miles west of Kobe.
 At Tamashima, the Mitsubishu- Mishima bomber plant was at | tackled
 Reconnaissance ph o to graphs meantime, revealed that B-29s de- stroyed or damaged 60 per cent of Shizuoka, 52 per cent of Toyohashi 40 per cent of Hamamatsu and helt the commercial center of Yokkaicht

 FOR CHARTER
BY R. H. SHACKFORD

San Francisco, June 22.- (UP) Democratic and Re publican foreign policy lead CTS were ready today to begin their campaign for winning U. s. Senate ratification of the new United N a t 10 n S Charter.
 Sens. Tom Connally, D., Tex, and Arthur H. Vanden- berg, D., Mich, will fly back to Washington next week to begin their reports to the Senate less than two days after President Truman n closes the United Nations Conference.
 Both senators are members Of the D. s. delegation. Both hope this time to avoid the bitter par tisan strife of 1920 which divided the nation and kept the United States out of the old League of Nations Some quarters believe World War II might have been avoided if this country had joined the league
 5 Days Left
 With only five days of this con- ference left, the spotlight already was veerin gfrom San Francisco to Washington. Here 50 nations have drafted a charter for world organi- zation. But in Washington two- thirds of, the 96 senators must ap- prove that charter before the United States can participate in mans latest attempt to prevent war.
 If the United StateS-or any other of the five permanent members of the Security Council-doesn't ratify the treaty, the organization will never get started. Present provis- ions call for ratification by the Big Five and a majority of the other members of the organization be- fore the charter comes into force. Upon Connally, chairman of the Senase Foreign Relations Commit tee. and Vandenberg, member Of that committee and Republican party spokesman on foreign affairs, will fall the burden of steering the treaty through the Senate.
 They will waste no time in start ing their jobs. Two hours after MT. Truman addresses the final ses- sion next Tuesday, they will be en route to Washington by plane. They will arrive there Wednesday, with Connally scheduled to speak in the Senate on Thursday On Friday, Vandenberg will deliver compre- INonti,,ued an Page Al

Incubator
 BabyGoins

New Orleans. June 22-(UP)- Two-and-a-half pound Stanley Garland Adams, brought into this world by Caesarean operation two months before his scheduled birth, was given an even chance to survive today.
 Doctors said the baby, which weighed approximately two pounds, three ounces when he was deliv- cred, ten days ago, had gained five ounces after continuous two-hour feelings with an eye dropper.
 The physicians said they had to guess at the baby's weight because they could not risk placing him on scale. He was placed in an in- cubator immediately after the op- eration.
 Dr. James F. Lane, head of the obstetrical department at the U. S. Marine hospital, said the baby had developed swallowing rehexes and kicks and stretches - remarkable actions for an infant his size. Mrs. Mackie B. Adams. wife of a Coast GuardSman, was reported we'll and was expected to leave the hospital Sunday. The baby will remain in his incubator where the temperature is held constant be- tween 90 and 100 degrees.

Manila, June 22-(UP)-Filipins guerrillas seized the heart of tht Cagayan valley today, blocking the escape of a Japanese force which battled the Americans 35 miles to the south.
 The Filipinos-led by Col. Russell w. Volkckmann-captured Tugue- garo, capital of Cagayan province. as the Japanese finally turned to fight the 37th Division in the lower valley.
 The guerrilla force, driving across the Cagayan river in a sudden sweep down from the hills, by it's maneuver also split enemy forces in northern Luzon, estimated at two divisions.
 There were indications much of that enemy strength lay between the guerrilla force and the 37th Di- vision which finally met stiff oppo- sition after an unopposed march of two weeks. The Japanese threw two counter-attacks at the Amer ican force in the area two miles north of Illagan.
 The counter-attackS were hurled back with the 37th knocking out nine tanks, eight of them the fame-throwing type. This was the first enemy armor met in the drive along the valley proper.

Speedy Mass 7rioI Looms
Rv FDWARD V. ROBERTS

London, June 22 (U.P) Reichsmarshal Herman Goerlng and upwards of 100 other Major Nazl war criminals will be tried simul- taneously on a single conspiracy charge in the next six months, an authoritative American source salo today.
 The mass trial will be speedy and should be completed before win ter, he said.
 The informant said Chief Justice Robert Jackson, chief American prosecutor, may p4ess for action by an Anglo French-American court In the event that Russia does not agree immediately to the four-power tri- bunal proposed by President Tru- man.
 The number of Naz leaders to be hailed into court for the mass trial will be somewhere between 35 and 300. he said, but probably would not exceed 100.
 Besides Goering, the group is ex- pected to include former German Foreign Minister Joachim Won Riz- bentrop, former ambassador to .,u,key Franz Won Papen, number of high SS Storm Troop officers, as- sorted Gestapo leaders and a group of key Nazi industrialists and fin- anciers.
 Ample international law already exists on which to try the accused men, the American said. He indi- cated they would be indicted mainly under the Kellogg -Briand pact out laying offensive warfare.
 Articles of the Hague convention which made systematic terrorism, slave labor and other common Nazi practices international offenses also will be taken into consideration, the informant said.
 The prosecution will rely largely, but not entirely, on Dossiers com- piled by the United Nations war crimes commission in preparing the Indictments, he said.
 He reported that the United States was disposed to consider
