President Truman has asked that

However, 1t Is doubtful that this

cause OF insufficient wages to at

are hesitant about raising the

As one member put it: ut all
boils down to this: Congress just
doesn't like the idea of voting other
people in Government more money
than its members make" Although
President Truman has asked men,

The world need not fear Ameri-
can power. he said, emphasizing
that this country will not use force
except to defend principles of the
United Nations Charter.
Frankly admitting that world
conditions are not reassuring and
! that "all around us there is sus-
picion and distrust," the Secretary
said, nevertheless, that he is con-
vinced there is no reason for war
between any of the great powers. -
He added grimly, however, that
"it is not enough for nations to de-
clare they do not want war" re-
calling that Hitler had said that and
meant it in the sense of wanting
world domination without war if
possible
ITO Danish war" he said, nations
must refrain from doing the things
that lead to war"
Discussing in general terms some
of the things that lead to war, Mr..
Byrnes mentioned first that the
United States cannot overlook a
unilateral gnawing away at the
status quo" in international rela-
tionships, although not regarding
the status quo as Interchangeable
through peaceful adjustments.
He pointed out that the United
Nations Charter forbids aggression,
and declared I'VE cannot allow ag-
gression to be accomplished by CO.
ercion or pressure or by subterfuges
such as political inflltration."
For satisfactory adjustments to
be made in the light of common
interests to maintain peace in a
world based on the unity of all
great powers and the dominance of
none" he asserted, there must be
"a stop to this maneuvering for
strategic advantage all over the
world and to the use of one adjust

In effect urging Moscow not to get

|AAF TO- PIT Radar
Defense Against W
In New Mexico Tests

The Army Air Forces will pit
their "radar brains" and other
devices against captured German
Va bombs in varied tests at the
White Sands Proving Grounds In
New Mexico this summer.
Every known radar detection, in
cluding those devices recently used
in reaching the moon, will be util-
lied in the tests, the War Depart
ment announced last night, in an
effort to lessen the danger of atom
bombardment Of our great cities and
industrial centers by long-range
stratosphere rockets. Radar devices
will keep finger" on these 5000
miles-per-hour missiles as they arch
across the sky in the New Mexican
desert area.
"If this tracking is successful
according to AAF experts, ''it will
then be possible to devise some
means Of exploding the V-2s HARM
lessly in midair before they can
reach their targets-probably by
interception with counterattack
rockets"
Meanwhile, one of the weirdest
stories OF the war came to light
how the Allies planned to create a
1000, ,000-ton propelled iceberg
as floating airfield.
AS blueprinted by the British, the
fantastic aircraft carrier would have
been chunk of frozen water and
wood pulp 1000 feet long, 300 feet
wide and 200 feet deep.
Propelled by electric motors and
defended by its own antiaircraft
guns, it would have provided a
North Atlantic base for airplanes
hunting German submarines. Its
cost was estimated at $4,000, 900.
The project reached the point
where 1,000-ton model was built
on Canadian lake and tested for
six months in 1943 before the idea
was dropped, according to an an
nouncement released last night in
Ottawa, London and here.
Success of other antisubmarine
tactics and technical difficulties in
building the gigantic floating field
led to its abandonment.

China Demonstrations
BY the Asseciossd Press

CHUNGKING. Mar. 1.-Continu-

manding that Russia get out OF
Manchuria were reported by the
Chinese press today to have drawn
| a protest from the Soviet govern
ment.
The report, which said Generals
simo Chang 'Kai-sheks government
already has replied to the Russian
protest, was neither confirmed nor
denied by the Chinese Foreign Of

Sino Russian negotiations over
Manchuria continued, with Chinese
newspapers reporting snarled angles
The Catholic newspaper, Social

ing the view such property should
revert to China.
Discussions in Chungking.
The Soviet Ambassador, Apollon
Petrov. and China's Foreign Min
lister, Wang Shih-chieh, are meeting
frequently in ,Chungking to discuss
the situation.
The main point at issue, Social
Welfare reported, was the question
of China taking over the mining in
dustries Of Manchuria.
The World Daily News, in its re-
port on the series of conferences
said Chang Ching-kuo, the gen.
eralissimo's elder son and special
commissioner for foreign affairs in
Manchuria, has postponed a pro-
jected visit to Moscow.
The agitation for Russian with
drawal from Manchuria, carried on
in many of China's cities by thou
sands of parading students, found
new forms Of expression today
Twenty-seven public organizations
sent a telegram to the United Ma
tions Organization urging sanctions
against Russia. Chinese public
bodies in Formosa asked Gen.
Chang to take a firmer stand
against RuSsia's Unsuitable de-
mands."

In Marking reports persisted that
300 900 Chinese troops are to be sent
to Manchuria to take over from the
Russians, with thousands of them
already assembled at Shanghai and
Canton awaiting orders to move.

Police Are ReaIerted
For Former Convict
And Kidnapped Woman

All tips and reports that Chalmers
H. Laubaugh and Mrs, Mary KIM
mey, whom he is accused of having
abducted from her home in Little
Silver, N. j., last Friday, are in
Washington, apparently proved
groundless today.
Nevertheless, police were realerted
to be on the lookout for the two
and the FBI spread its hunt for
the paroled ex-convict to number
of mid-Atlantic States.
Laubaugh was described as a for
mer suitor of Mrs. KINNEY who sb-
Quoted her from her bed while
holding her husband at gunpoint
The ex-convict formerly lived in
the HOO block of Tenth street NV,
and Mrs KINNEY, before her mar
riage, was employed here as a
waitress.
Old Haunts Visited.
While numerous reports and false
leads were received by police over
the week end, officers visited all
known haunts of both Laubaugh
and Mrs. KINNEY in the Northwest
section.
About dozen policemen who
knew the two persons sought when
they lived here were assigned to
keep close lookout for them.
Among the leads that were re-
ceived by police over the week
end were several reports that the
two had been seen in Northern
Virginia. Quickly run down by
FBI agents, they proved to be
false.
He Was Paroled In June.
Another report said that a pair
of hitch-hikers resembling the
couple had been seen near Middle
burg and that their car had been
found abandoned near there, but
this, too, proved erroneous after
a check by the FBI.
Local police also checked q re-
port that the two had taken a
bus from Falls Church to Connec-
ticut avenue and K street NV, but
this, too, proved to be false, ac-
cording to the FBI.
Laubaugh was paroled from Lor-
ton Reformatory last June after
serving part of a one to four year
sentence for violation of the Mann
Act.
