(By Edward Curtis)

JERUSALEM, (P)-The bodies of two young British sergeants kidnapped as hostages by Irgun Zvai Leumi were found hanging yesterday from two eucalyptus trees and were blasted to bits by a booby trap when British soldiers started to cut them down.
 Jewish settlement police found the bodies in a forest preserve near Natanya just "A hours after Irgun, extremist Jewish under ground organization, announced it had executed the Britons in re- prisal for the hanging of three IT, gunists convicted in a prison de- livery.
 The area was cordoned off and dogs were turned loose in an at tempt to pick up the trail of tne killers.
 In Jerusalem, top Palestine gov ernment officials met to map a rigid campaign against under ground violence. One official said plans under consideration in- cluded a demand upon the Jewish agency to cooperate actively in stamping out underground attacks.
 Qn London Prime Minister Att lee placed the entire Palestine sit uation before his cabineD.
 When soldiers started to cut the bodies down after an hour-long probe for mines, the booby trap exploded behind the body of ser geant Clifford Martin. It blasted to bits his body and that of ser geant Mervyn Paice and scattered the pieces over wide area.
 The blast wounded one grena- dier guardsman in the face and threw several bystanders to the ground, including photographer James Pringle and correspondent Cagter L. Davidson, both of The Associated Press.

U. s. Will Spend
 Millions To Open European Markets

BERLIN, (P) - In a bold at tempt to open European markets to free trade, the American mili- tary government will spend mil lions of dollars in Europe buying goods from Germany's neighbors, authoritative sources declared to- day.
 The dollars will come from the sale of Germany's exports under the American-British bi-zonal import-export plan, according to these sources. Goods will be bought wherever they can be found, whether in western Euro pean countries or those dominated by Russia.
 This program has been initiated already in the signing and nego- tiating of trade agreements with Czechoslovakia, Switzerland and Italy. It is intended to refute ire quent Soviet charges that America is trying to drain Europe of dol lars.

Import duty on Cheddar cheese

sion into pieces has been reduced
from 4 cents lb. but not less than
25 per cent ad valorem to 31a cents

been placed on the amount which
may enter this country. In 1916,
dutiable impohts amounted to TO-
900 lbs, U. S. exports amounted
to 80 million lbs. Probably United
Kingdom will take most of Can
ada's output but u. S. may get
