Spelln1,d5n Drops Stop m Madrid
 Bad Weather
 Causes Delay
 In Departure

Rome, March 2.-(UP)-Francis Cardinal Spellman has advised the American embassy in Madrid that he will not have time to attend a diplomatic reception in his honor while in Madrid on his way home, 1t was learned today.
 Flying delay caused by bad weather was given as the explana- tion for Spellman'S failure to go to Madrid for dinner with of- ficials of the government of Gen. eraliSsimo Francisco Franco.
 Speilman refused to discuss the implications of his failure to at- tend the Spanish government din- ner, originally scheduled for this evening.
 "The planes are not here" he said. That is all there is, and that is obvious"
 Concerned About Leaving
 He said his only concern was to reach New York m time for a re- ception there Tuesday. He said he could make it even if he did not take off until Monday, since the break was a required l2-hour rest period for the pilots.
 Transcontinental and Western Airs overseas Trans-Wprld Airline said the Constellation and skymas- ter which will carry the Spellman party home were delayed at the Shannon, Fire. airport because a snowStorm in Central France pre- vented their landing in Paris on the way here.

Madrid, March 2.-CUp)-0en. Francisco Francois government to- day accused France of hostile acts and admitted that spanish Repub- lican guerTillas from France are carryGng on a terrorism" campaign In the interior of Spain.
 The cabinet issued Q sharp coIn- munique after Q long night session in Francois home during which, reliable reports said, news was phoned to Franco that Francis Car dinal Spellman of New York had postponed and possibly cancelled al- together his visit to Madrid.

If Moscow persists in occupation of rranian provinces Byrnes will be under strong pressure to protest and make 1t stick, if possible. The al- formative which would get him off the spot would be agreement by the Tranian government to continued occupation.
 Administration Taken Back
 The Administration already Is alarmed by the vigor with which it's critics are demanding a stronger hand in dealing with Moscow. A senator told the United Press today that Byrnes' Thursday night speech was revised considerably after an address delivered in the Senate by Sen. Arthur II. Vandenberg, tR.- Mich) Vandenberg was Q delegate to the January-February UNO As- sembly meeting in London. Report ing to the Senate, he conceded the right Of Moscow to speak up but called for an equally tough and otit-spoken American policy in deal AA4b WltkA tkhe ktuSSAuhS,
 President Truman was reported to have felt that Vandenberg' s speech would permit the Republi- cans to put the Administration ct e disadvantage by getting all credit for advocating Q stronger position toward Moscow. The State Depart ment ordered a big bundle of Van- denberg's speech for study the day before ByrneS' text was released.
 Sen. Joseph II. Ball, (R.-Minn0 said the terms of the withdrawal agreement effective today still are binding and that the question must be raised before the UNO again. The Security Council meets March 2i in New York.
 Sen. H. Styles Bridges, (R.-N.H), said; Russia evidently does not take Secretary Byrnes' speech seri- ouSly when they take contrary acc ton. 1 shall be interested in Byrnes' next step. The Russian action Is contrary to his warning"
 Two Treaties Standing
 Russian policies in Tran raised one of the first controversies during UNO Security Council and Assem- bly, meeting in London. Iran charged Russian interference in her internal affairs. Audrey Y. Vish- insky. Russian Security Council member, denied the charge but ob- jected to UNO investigation. On Jan. 25 he assured the Council that Russian troops would be withdrawn by March 3, on schedule.
 The United States, Great Britain and the Soviet Union are parties to an agreement of Dec. 1, 1943 which pledges maintenance of Iranian in- dependence, sovereignty and terri ritorial integrity. Great Britain, the Soviet Union and Iran are par ties to a treaty of Jan. %. 1922 which obliges the two larger pow CTS to withdraw occupationary troops six months after hoStilities cease.

 "It's all over and will be forgot ten," said Coviello. He said he had no intention of filing a complaint against Mayo.
 J. Maxim Ryder, general manager of The Democrat, assured State Police Commissioner Edward J. Hickey that no complaint would be entered, and told the same thing to Mayo when the state trooper visited The Democrats city room yesterday afternoon to apologize to the photo grapher.
 Hit By Open Hand
 Mayo hit Coviello with his open hand, in the mistaken belief that it was he who had snapped a pie ture of Leary talking with his wife and daughter. Actually the photo graph had been taken by a Spring field photographer, who set off his flash bulb despite requests made of all cameramen not to take any pictures of Leary's family.
 Eentering the Democrat city room yesterday afternoon, Mayo announ- ced that he wished to make a public apology to Coviello.
 I'm sorry" Mayo told Coviello. T can't tell you how bad I feel about the whole thing. Will you forgive me?"
 Coviello accepted the troopers hand and said:
 Sure. Forget it. It's all over as far as am concerned"
 Admits Losing Temper
 Mayo explained that he lost his temper when he saw a flash bulb go off, despite the agreement. Tn the excitement. he said, he thought it was Coviello who had taken the shot, and swung at him, hitting Coviello's face with his open hand and knocking him to the floor of the Springfield railroad station.
 Tn a telephone conversion with Commissioner Hickey, Alr. Ryder said The Democrat had no wish to make any complaint.
 At Springfield, Leary was allowed to chat for some minutes with his wife. Mrs. Sadie LeaFy. and his daughter, Eleanor. They also rode with him to Wethersfield.
 Lieutenant Mayo had been work ing on the Leary case for years and made numerous trips to points in the United States and Mexico in search of the fugitive.

 Speaking at a dinner of the For eign Policy Association, Dulles. an alternate delegate at the London meeting of the UNO, said American delegates could not be expected to improvise their policy on the spot
 'The United States delegates tc the next sessions of the Assembly should be chosen well in advance, Dulles said. They should have time to develop policies which will be realistic and significant and ex- pressive of the righteous faith Of the best of America"
 The policy, Dulles said. should be partisan and have the support of the entire American public.

 Warning that dls-harmoSly among the United Nations is increasing "at a rapid paee," Dulles became the third prominent American this week to criticize Russia for non-co-opeg- ation in international affairs.
 Dulles hlamed most of the dlscord ln the recent London UNO meeting on the strong convictions of the Sos viet leaders and their refusal to eompg0mise or accept an adverse verdict. He said however, that the Russian people and their leaders were inherently friendly. their needs weFe great and i've have many common social goals"

Federal
Release May
Reopen US. Yard

The prospect of an early re-
sumption of activities, Pascagou-
las u S. Engineers Boat Yard
was much brighter this week as
a result If the federal release of
seventy million dollars for flood
control and navigation purposes.
The yard, which employed
about rs men and had a monthly
payroll ranging between $4,000
and $4,000, was closed recently
in a drastic etltback of %appropri.
atoms and arly a skeleton crew
remainq.
f. f, RIOS, former su%perinten-
dent of the ward here and now
chief administrative assistant of
the Mobile Engineer District, was
optimistic, however, in a tele-
phone interview with a Chronicle
Star and Advertiser reporter.
AT the present moment, we
cannot assure local interests that
the boatvard at Pascagoula will
be react waited since the exact

allocated to this district is not
clear" Mr.. Ros said.
The general situation through
out the district IS naturally much
more optimistic as to the resump-
ton of normal operations, how
ever" he revealed.
Important Coz
The yard was established here
in 1911 and is m important cog in
the county economy. Dredge
boats use it as a base and various
small crafts are repaired and con-
structed there when il is in OPP
Grafton.
A Lar ger number of men were
employed at the yard during the
war, but il is essentially a peace
time industry, providing employ
ment curing dull times.
There were NJ indications this
week as To what date the men
may be called back to work, if
the yard is r%eopened.
