WASHINGTON
TWO EXPERTS
 IN ESPIONAGE
By JACK STINNET First of Three Stories)


 WASHINGTON-Any day now, a small. compact fellow with de- ceptively mild manner will report back to his job on the county po- lice force at Springfield, III.
 Already tall, curly-haired, athletic young man has taken his chair behind the treasurer's and advertising directors desk in a Washington, D. C., furniture store that bears the family name.
 Between them they carry the memories of one of the strangest Odysseys of this war: More than 12 months of espionage and sabo- tage as leaders of guerrilla fight ing behind the Japanese lines in China's bloody, stinking. but high ly productive rice bowl.
 The first is It. Cmdr. Meredith J. Muddy" Rhule, late of OSS- SACO (Office of Strategic Serv- ices-Sino American Cooperative Organization, commander of a six-man demolition team, and later trainer and commander of a band of Chinese guerrillas that harried the Japanese all the way from LiuchoW to Canton.
 The second is It. Maury Nee, ex-Georgetown University foot ball star and a former member of Rear Admiral Milton E. Mary" Miles naval group" which start ed out to prick the enemy along the Jap-held coast of China and ended with behind-the-lines land operations deep inside China. Part of the time Nee was with Rhule's command, for although lines were drawn at the top defining com mands and operations, it was a different story in the field where the men worked as team.
 In SACO (aptly pronounced socko), the men were partially un- der the direction of one of China's wiliest espionage and sabotage ex- perts, Gen. Tail Li, who bore the high-sounding Chinese army title of chief of the bureau of investi- gation and statistics.

Pop Bottle Case Listed East Farm Street
 Grocer Asks S5,00O Damages

Trial opened before Judge Edward J Quinlan and a Superior Court jury of seven men and five women today in the 5000 civil action of OrIel A. Romano, East Farm Street grocer, who claims he was injured when a bottle of soda burst while he was trying to fill an order
 The suit is brought against Saul Silver. doing business as the Pepsi Cola Bottling Company of Bristol and the Bristol Bottling Works
 The accident occurred June 25, l94l, at the store at 52 East Farm Street. The plaintiff claims that glass from the bottle flew out and struck his right leg, causing laceration about one and half to two inches long. He claims he had to hire help to do his work while he was disabled, and that he has sustained permanent disfigurement
 It Is alleged that greater car bonic gas pressure was used than the soda bottle could stand, ano that the bottle was defective,
 Special defense has been filed 1r the case in which the defendant claims the accident resulted from the plaintiffs negligence in that he did not use reasonable care in handling the bottle.

motion planning to support 1t vir- tually as 1t stands. Earlier they had contemplated some changes.
 The American policy now would be to establish a continuing inc vestigation" of the Franco regime. American officials want to keep the issue alive in the Council as an- other method of keeping pressure on Franco. But they still oppose drastic action against the Spanish regime.
 Support Expected
 The British will support the Aus- tralian motion in principle but want some of the proposed Investigations procedure filled in. British officials are asking: CD Where is the in- vestigating commission to work, here or possibly in Spain itself? CD Who will the commission hear? (3) Will 1t have subpoena powersp (4) Isn't the month suggested by Australia too short period, es- pecially if a trip to Spain is con- templated? C5) If @ trip to Spain is planned, would Council members not maintaining relations with Franco be allowed to enter?
 The Russian delegation is expect ed to support the investigation plan, but probably will vigorously oppose the Australian suggestion for calling upon the Franco regime itself for information. The United States was said not to feel too strongly about this point. Despite Its general practice of wanting both sides to have Q chance to testify
