who was found shct to death and
robbed in her bus Thursday.
Special police details, conducting

poets after a pickup order had been
issued fer a Negro believed respon-
sible for criminal assaults against
a woman and 14-year-old girl in
the area recently.
Another navy driver, Maleta
Drake, told investigators that three
days ago she found a Negro hiding

Belgian Leader
Visions Pact
For Peace.Tin,e

WASHINGTON, Jan. 6. CUP)-
Paul Van iceland, former Belgian
prime minister, believes the simplest
and soundest first step in laying
the foundation for postwar restora-
ton of Europe and the structure for
peace should be the creation of
close economic cooperation among
Britain, Belgium, Holland an d
France.
He proposed western European
economic group as an intermediate
step between preWar nationalistic
EXCLUSIVELY and universal organi-
zation among nations.
Return to the preWar condition,
he said, would be suicide, while to
try to achieve a workable universal
organization at one stroke would be
biting off mere than the nations at
present show evidence of being able
to digest
THE economic association" he
said in an exclusive interview
would not be exclusive nor would
it be against anybody. On the
contrary any naticn that wanted
to join would be welcome, and the
group would seek to increase and
expand relations with other groups
or states"
