IN order to deal with this for
midable Russian move, Mr.. Byrnes
will have TO develop a real alterna-
five. Though he can. I believe, still
form a genuine Germany policy, he
does not have one now, and by
falling TO fix his attention seri-
ouslv on Germany during this last
year. he has lost ground that it
will be difficult to regain. To say
this is not hindsight. There has
been plenty of warning that Mr..
Bvrnes had no time to lose in ex-
erting his power and his influence

an accomplished fact, supported
not only by the Western Allies but
by the vested interests Of an in
creasing number of Germans in
the separate German states.

 Hangs Self

Slidell, La, April ls-(UP)-Fu- neral services will be conducted here today for Arthur Chevrolet, one of the designers of the Chevrolet auto- mobile, who hanged himself at his farm home near slidell yesterday.
 Chevrolet, last of three brothers who helped huild and later lost con- trolling interest of the car manu- featuring firm bearing their name, was ruled a suicide by parish Cor oner pr. H. E. GaVtreauX after his body was found suspended in his room.
 Chevrolet's death, said Gautreauxr was a "clear case of suicide" He de- scribed Chevrolet as melancholic and hanged himself during a state Of acute mental depression"
 With his brothers, Louis and Cas- ton, Crevrolet came to the U. S. from Deaunt, France, in 1901. After attaining fame as auto race track experts, they organized the Chevro- let Company in 1911, with William c. Durant.
 They sold out to Durant and re- turned to automobile racing foul years later. Louis later manufactur- ed airplane motors and died in l94l Gaston had been killed in a Lo: Angeles speedway crash in 1920.

 But both would like to avoid flat rejection of Polish demands for ac- ton against the Spenish dictator and hope to find the basis for Q compromise when debate on Spain Is resumed in the security council late today.
 What is sought is a midway res- olution between Poland's demand for intervention in Spain and @ do- nothing policy.
 Gromyko to Speak
 The council scheduled two more hours of discussion of Franco Spain between 3 and 5 p. m, est. British delegate Sir Alexander Cadogan will start, representing those op- posed to action. Soviet Delegate Andrel A. Gromyko probably will speak before the session closes and present additional charges against Franco.
 At 5 p. m., present plans are to turn back to the almost eternal Iranian problem. with many of the delegations hoping for a vote to- night which will allow them to re- cess for long Easter weekend. Debate on Spain would be resumed next week.
 The 1ranian case was referred Tuesday to Q committee of experts after Secretary General Trygve Lit submitted a surprise and unsolicited opinion that the council might be acting illegally, or at least unwisely if 1t reflected Russia's demand for dropping the Iranian case imme- diately.

Validating Act for City Tax List Listed on Special Session Agenda

A validating act to insure the rec tention of Waterburys property re- valution and tax leVies has been added to the agenda of the General Assembly's special session due to open May 2.
 The legislation was accepted yes- terday by the Legislative Council after Mayor John s. Monagan and other city officials had requested the action.
 Today the legislative committee of the Waterbury Council of Com munlty Clubs through Its co-chair- man A. B. Martino attacked the move as @ political maneuver." The Council has entered tax suit against the city urging rejection of the l945 Grand List and the taxes collectable now.
 May Demand Hearing
 Council members today said they would oppose the bill during the special session and would likely de- mand a. public hearing before q committee, rather than permit the measure to go through unhampered.
 GA validating act is one whereby previous resolutions are, in ef- feet, affirmed as officially validated or given full legal force and are In capable of being rightfully over- thrown.

 The supply of streptomycin IS now extremely limited. Dr. William Erb, Philadelphia physician, said recent ly he was asked to pay more than SiO0 e gram for 1t on the black market.

 A spokesman for the office of the Army surgeon general said the drug, still in the early stages of clinical trial, was employed only in care- fully selected cases. He said that while there was not enough of the drug for use in ordinary cases of tuberculosis, 1t was used for treat ment of tubercllar meningitis, acute military tuberculosis and urinary tract diseases.

Washington, April lS- (UP) - Pressure of a conservative rebellion threatened today to crack wide- open the new deal-Democratic coalition created by the late Frank lin D. Roosevelt.
 This election year development came as angry southern Democratic members of the House seized control of party caucus late last night and named a special committee to pre- vent party leaders from punishing them for insurgency.
 The development need not serl' ously affect Democratic prospects in congressional contests. But t hoisted significant danger signals for the party's io4s National con- ventlon.

Communists chonschun 
 NGtionoIists Drop
 Hopes of Defending
 Monehurion CopitoI

Chungking, April ls-(UP)-Man- churian dispatches said the fall of Changchun to a Communist siege army of 30,oo0, which hammered ceaselessly at dwindling pocket Of fewer than 5000 Nationalist de- lenders, appeared at hand today.
 At Peiping, Gen, Tu Li-ming, commander of Nationalist forces in northeast China, confirmed that the Changchun garrison was out-num- bered more than 10 to l. He indi- cated that all hope of defending the Manchurian capital had been ahan- doned.
 Military dispatches said the bloody fighting in the streets of Changchun was nearing its end in a Communist victory, with the hard pressed Ma tionalists not expected to be able to hold out much longer.
 Little Hope Held
 Government sources here said a Nationalist column which broke through Communist defenses at Szepingkai, 70 miles southwest of Changchun, was moving toward the capitol at a speed of IA miles a day. Indicating that advance elements might be within 30 miles of Chang chun, the informantS held little hope that the fall of the city could be prevented.
 The crisis at Changchun coin- cided with the return of Gen.
