Economists Ask US. Lead World Trade
 Write ConcIove
 Of Businessmen
 In Massachusetts

Boston, Oct. IA (UP) Led by President Truman, group of the nations top economists called today for a greater and freer world trade in which the United States would take the leading part.
 Joining the President in his mes sage to the 18th annual Boston Conference on Distribution were Secretary of Commerce w. Averill Hartman, Assistant Secretary of Commerce w. Averill Hartman, Assistant Secretary of State Spruil- le Braden and Winthrop w. Aldrich. chairman of the Chase National Bank of New York.
 MT. Truman said greater trade and help by the United States would reduce the economic inse- curities and fears that foster war" He urged that efforts be made to reduce prices for the benefit of all and reminded the Conference that a return to peacetime production placed the responsibility for main taining a high level of consumption on the businessmen.
 Stresses World Trade Results Hartman, in his message to the Conference, extended good wishes for successful meeting.
 'The time is coming when aggres- Sive salesmanship and greater effic- iency in distribution will be requir- ed to sell the products of our great ly expanded industrial facilities" we said. T am gratifled to know that you are placing emphasis on the need for distribution of our products abroad. World trade can be decisive in creating the conditions for a stable prosperity at home and an enduring peace among nations" Aldrich recommended as a means to greater trade and peace the "re- duction of trade barriers, the stabil- ization of foreign exchanges, the removal of exchange control on current account transactions and the formulation of beneficial foreign lending policies"
 All these, he said, twill foster economic progress and this, in it. self, will reduce the likelihood of flO4C1lCC dIllOllS 1dIlO1lS.
 Challenge to Businessmen
 Bra d en, stressing particularly trade with Canada and among the Americas, said it was challenge to business to develop trade so the welfare of all our peoples may be enhanced by higher standards of living based on higher real wages and greater access to the good things of life"
 Acting Secretary of State Dean Acheson sent message saying the country's increased production facil- ities can be utilized to advantage only If international bottle necks restricting maximum trade are broken.
 He said conference of 18 na- tions would meet in London at the invitation of the United States to negotiate toward reduction of spec fife trade barriers and abolition of trade discrimminations."
 Offering the English view, Hon. Herbert Butcher, 8 member of Par liament, said international com- merce conducted on a fair and re- ciproca1 basis, "can be one of the greatest powers for good in the wears of this century which remain to us."

GenealOgist Claims You May Descend from Royalty

New York, Oct. 14-(UP)-It may embitter your envious neighbors to know it, but you could be blood kin to king. Or, at least, have a baron's skeleton locked inside the family closet.
 That is, if you spring from pure English stock
 Miss Mabel WaShburn, crack gen. ealogist and president of the Ma tional Historical Society, said today ! that if you're English from skull to toe (Scotch and Irish doesn't count) you're kin to every person who lived in England in the year 115O.
 Tt was small country then" she explained, "and everyone-from top to bottom-would be your kinsman. !" 100000 Have Ties
 Miss Washburn insisted that she couldn't say the same if you were of French or Spanish descent, or if your uncle came from IndoneSia. Populations of other nations were much later than England's in those days and subject to constant fluc- tuation.
 Miss WaShburn isn't one to deal in exact numbers, but she also be- lieves that there may be around 300, 900 people in the U. S.-Many in blisSful ignorance-who have at least one ancestor who sailed aboard the Mayflower.
 That's the nice thing about my business" Miss Washburn said. People sometimes discover such nice things about themselves"
 It seems, if you go back far enough, you're kin to so many diff ferent citizens that, with a little sensible pruning, you can make your family tree sprout rosebuds from top to bottom.
 Washington Easily Traced
 The first six generations are the toughest. If you get past them, it's easy to lose the wife-beaters or baby-killers in the crowd.
 For instance, Miss Washburn fig ureS that George Washington was descended from the rulers of every medieval country in Europe, and that his blood line was linked with that of all the nobles who forced old King John to come across with the Magma Charta.
 That's what made Washington such a great leader" she explained.
 People have paid Miss Washburn as high as $15,0O0 to probe their family background, but she turns all the profits over to the historical so- ciety.
 Finds He Is Clans Head
 One middle-aged bachelor got into a quarrel with his rich sisters and decided that he would cut them out of his will.
 His family came from Oxford shire" Miss Washburn said, "and so he decided to find out who was the present head of the Clan and to leave all his money to him."
 Miss Washburn took up the search and it required several months.
 But I couldn't help him." she said. q went back through the family records and discovered that every male of each generation, ex- cept his own direct ancestors, had died without issue"
 The poor bachelor was stuck. This made him the head of his family.
 Miss Washburn never learned what he finally did with his money.

He is AWOL from his New Jersey camp.
 Inspector Joseph R. Bender said the f1atiron was thrown by one of the three during an altercation at Mrs. Marrone's apartment early Sunday morning. He said that all four had been drinking and appar- ently became involved in an argu- ment climaxed by the application of iron to skull.
 The Inspector said 1t was not clear who threw the iron, but 1t is expected that the quartet's diff1cul- ties will be ironed out in City Court Thursday.
 The AWOL soldier said he was born in Waterbury but is half breed Indian, having residence on an Indian reservation in Old Town Maine. Shay told police that he is full-blooded Indian.

C.I.O.Opens Offensive In Risdon Strike
 Increases Picket
 Line, EmpIoyes
 Sound Truck

The local CIO. today sent into high gear its campaign in support of the strike against the Waterbury plant of the Risdon Manufacturing Company. Several steps were taken to back the strike, which ended its eighth week today.
 Assignment of International Rep resentative William Moriarty to the RiSdon unit of Local 251 to help in conduct of the strike was announced by John Mankowski, District member of the executive board of the International Union of Mine, Mill & Shelter Workers. MT. Mori- arty, in his special assignment, will work with International Represent ative Ovide Garceau.
 A sound truck was at the South Main Street plant this morning as non-strikers entered the factory. Enlarged picket lines were also in evidence. The Risdon unit has also initiated leaflet campaign.
 Union employees have been on strike at Risdon since Aug. 20. The immediate prelude to the strike was an announcement by the company that it would no longer recognize the union as bargaining agent for the workers, the management claim ing that the union no longer had majority of the eligible employees as members. Earlier the union had been seeking changes in wage standards, and contract clauses pro- viding for arbitration and estab- fishing union security.
 Last week, Chairman Thomas Vaccaro of the union shop commit tee claimed that production at Ris- don has been cut to Is percent of normal.
