tions. It would be responsible for delivering UNRRA and other re- lief materials and would have ships available to 90 anywhere on mo- ment's notice. The State Depart ment may propose larger member ship in the pool.
 American shippers support the pooling idea because they feel that otherwise the U. s. might have to do the relief job alone while foreign competitors forge ahead in the commercial trades.
 Tn addition, industry sources said that the alternative to tonnage hm- itation might well be a shipping war. They believe limitation should be acceptable to other countries in- asmuch as the United States has a preponderance of world shipping and could hardly be hurt if uncorl- trolled competition is adopted.
 Britain, Norway May Object
 Opposition to the industry's in- sistence on carrying 50 percent pur- chases made with foreign loans may be expected from nations like Bri- tain and Norway on grounds such an arrangement would make heavy inroads into their available dollars.
 Industry sources maintain that inasmuch as their tax dollars help to make up the foreign loans, they should have an opportunity to earn them back just as manufacturers and farmers do. They also contend they probably would be long on ton- mage and short on cargo if they did not get their business since a con- siderable portion of world trade in the immediate future seems likely to be financed by American loans.

 Waterbury's oCn, Dan Parker, re- ceives the praises of one contestant in his statement. Parker was a former local sports editor. The West Main reader writes of Parker as follows:
 While many of the feature writ CTS give . resume of the news, Dan Parkeris column carries bits of the news from ali over this and any other country which never reaches the eyes and ears of the UP, AP, rNS. etc.. until Parker puts it in print.

other call was made. One said it was from a hot dog stand and the other said 1t was from @ Rapid Transit ''L" Station.
 Storms said that on the first call Campbell asked "Is Suzanne there?" Then Campbell got panicky, Storms said, and turned the telephone over to Costello, who hung up. Police, on the day of the Kidnapping, rec ported receiving such a call at the Degnan home just of Sheridan Road on the shore of Lake Michi- gan.
 The second man named by Campbell was not identified by police.
 Handwriting Sampled
 Storms said samples of the hand writing of Costello and Campbell were sent to the Federal Bureau of Investigation for comparison with the handwriting on the note which was left in the kidnapped girls bed- room, demanding $2O,O0O ransom.
 Compbell told his queStioners that the object of the kidnap plot which he discussed with the others was to be ransom. He did not ex- plain why they believed that the child's father, James Degnan. an office of Price Administration of- flcial of modest means, would be able to produce the ransom.
 Police did not reveal the infor- nation which led them to take Campbell and Costello into custody. There still was no certainty that their arrest would bring police any closer to solution of the crime than the dozens of arrests made earlier.
 All previous suspects in the case were released after questioning.
 Dreamers' Irk Police
 Prendergast com m n ting on Campbell's statement, said:
 There is a possibility he may be telling the ruth, but we have no corroborating evidence and we have no reason to say that it is the breaking of the cast yet"
 Campbell told police the kidnap- ing originally was planned as a three-man job but that he was left out at the last moment. He said the crime was planned a week in advance and that the motvie was money.
 Campbell said that on the day of the crime Costello told him about the Kidnapping.
 Doubted Costello's Story Campbell said he expressed doubt at CoStello's story and that they then made the telephone calls to the Degnan home to confirm it.
 Police said Costello was given a lie detector test last Saturday and results were inconclusive. He said Campbell probably would get a fife test sometime today.
 Suzanne, blue-eyed daughter of James Degnan, a S7,5O0-a-yeag Off, flee of Price Administration offi- cial, was stolen from her bed some- time during the early morning of Jan. 2. Her father discovered she was missing about 7:30 a. m. when he went to awaken her for school. s20,e00 Asked
 Eleven hours later, the little girls head was found in a catch-basin near the Degnan home in the fash- ionable Edgewater Beach district. Within a few hours all parts of her body except her arms were recov- cred from cess-poois within a few blocks of the home.
 The ransom note. which Degnan found in Suzanne's bedroom, read
 "Get &20O00 reddy and wait for word. Do not notify FBI or police Bills in 5's and i0is."
 A battered ladder was found in the rear Of the Degnan home.
 On the day after the crime DO. lice found the basement laundry room where Suzanne's body appar. entiy was butchered. Blo0dstaini and bits Of flesh were found in { washtub.
