Ferenc Macy offered his resignation
when 120 members of his Small

Kiaohsien, which had been under
Communist attack for days, lies Al

of Tsingtao, where government
troops rushed preparations to meet
an expected Red assault.
Government circles attributed the
spread of fighting in Shantung to
poor strategy by Nationalist COM

numbers and equipment.
Nationalist commanders in Peip-

and intensity of Red Gen. Lin

Judge Johnson 'sCase
Speeded After Court
Warns on Delays
D, the Associated Press

HARRISBURG, Mar. 13.-Defense
counsel may complete presentation
of its documentary evidence today
at the conspiracy trial of former
Federal Judge Albert w. johnson
after repeated court warnings
against further delay"
The 74-year-old former jurist is
on trial in Federal Court with his
three sons, Donald M, Miller A. and
Capt. Albert W., jr., and two others,
John Memolo and Jacob Greenes.
All are charged with conspiracy to
obstruct justice and defraud the
United States.
The most recent admonition of
Presiding Judge James Alger Fee
came yesterday when the jurist told
Defense Attorney Charles J. Mar
giotti, "It seems to me the defense
Is somewhat disorganized."
Delay Is Scored.
"I'm not accusing you Of conduct
ing q f1libuster," Judge Fee said,
"but your actions seem aimed at
arriving at pm. (the normal court
adjournment time)."
Mr.. Margiotti protested he had
witnesses "at hand" and denied he
was attempting to delay proceed
ings "in any way" The long list of
documents being introduced in evi-
dence, Mr.. Margiotti said, were Of
fered in an attempt to vindicate
former Judge Johnson's conduct
while on the bench.
The latest defense witness-Rob-
ert E. McMath, vice president of
the Bethlehem Steel Corp.-was on
the stand for three hours while a
major portion Of the defense evi-
dence was admitted.
Witness Denies Deal"
Mr.. McMath testified he never
made a deal" with Memolo in con-
nection with the receivership Of the
Williamsport (Pa) Wire Rope Co.,
which was purchased by Bethlehem
in foreclosure action.
Previously, 1t was testified by Gov
ernment witnesses that Memolo
planned to obtain as much as $3.50.
600 from the steel firm for aiding
in the acquisition of the bankrupt
wire rope company.
The receivership and eventual
sale of the company to Bethlehem
were under the jurisdiction of
former Judge johnson.
Character Witnesses Limited.
At one point Judge Fee objected
to the great number of docu-
ments offered by Mr.. Margiotti, de-
claring I'm not here to retry the
Williamsport wire rope case"
The jurist also announced he will
limit the number of defense char
acter witnesses to five for each de-
fendant except former Judge John
son who will be allowed 10 because
of the nature of his former posi-
ton"

Senator Morse Now Regrets
'Unkindness' 10 President
By the As.oeiated Press

President Truman's appeal to Con-
gress yesterday for aid to Greece and
Turkey caused Senator Morse, Re-
publican, of Oregon to express public
regret for "unkind" language he
previously used about the President.
At the time Mr.. Truman an
nounced settlement of the railroad
strike before joint session of Con-
gress on May 26, 1916, Senator Morse
described as ham acting the Pres
ident's announcement that railroad
union leaders had called of the
strike.
Without mentioning this directly
yesterday, Senator Morse reminded
the Senate he frequently had differed
with Mr.. Truman in the past and
at one time was a "bit unkind in
the language I used"
OFF the floor Senator Morse said

Reported Now With
Jews in Palestine
By the Associated Press

JERUSALEM, Mar. 13.-An officer
Of Hagana, largest and most mod
crate of the Jewish underground
groups in Palestine, declared today
that 300 passengers from the
beached refugee ship Susanna had
made their way safely ashore land

Jewish community in Palestine.
The claim was issued while the
British Army was busy in Haifa
transferring approximately 400
other illegal immigrants from the
Susanna to the deportation ship
Empire Rival, which is to take them
to Cyprus internment camps.
At the same time, government
announcement said about 100 other
Susanna passengers-most of them
old and sick-were being brought
off the beached vessel near GAIA
in Southern Palestine by breeches
buoy.
The Hagana officer told the As
sociated Press in a clandestine in
terview that his organization had
planned and executed" the beach
ing of the small ship on the barren
coastline of Southern Palestine and
that except for disastrous piece
of bad luck we would have gotten
them all ashore"
He explained that an unexpected
shift of an army installation
thwarted plans (which had been
made for months" Army officers at
the scene yesterday said many of
the passengers ran squarely into
the armys arms on landing yester-
day.
The Hagna officer refused to elab-
crate on details of the plans used
and on how the tiny vessel managed
to elude the British Nays block
ade of Palestine waters. He said
only: I'VE were able to help them
some by keeping them advised Of
conditions here"
This is the first of many" he
added: You can expect an armada
and they'll all try to reach shore"

AKRON, OHIO, March l3-The new
Goodyear Double Eagle, Goodyear's finest
tire, will be offered in al-Nylon cord in
the larger sizes, Mr.. P. w. Litch6eld,
Chairman of the Board, announced today.
This announcement means that the
Goodyear Research Laboratory is first to
solve the difficult technical problems in
volved in building the extreme light weight
and toughness of Nylon cord into an auto
mobile tire with Nylon in all six complete
phys.
NyIon first used in Airplane Tires
Nylon's spectacular performance in air
plane tires during the war was quick to
attract the attention of automobile tire
makers.
The lightness and toughness of Nylon
was almost indispensable in airplane tires
where every ounce of weight counted and
heavy loads had to be landed at high
speeds.

greater resistance to bruises.
Nylon means a much lighter, a much
cooler running tire; tire that's far safer,
because it's far stronger.
Your chances of getting a Nylon Tire
Mr.. Litch6eld made it quite plain that 1t
will be some time before every motorist
will have chance to ride on Nylon cord
tires.
The kind of Nylon used in tires is still
scarce For the present, the new Nylon
Double Eagle tire will be made in the 200
and $50 sizes only.
Even in these sizes, there will not be
enough to 60 around.
However, all the new Nylon tires made
will be distributed to Goodyear dealers
ON fair and equitable basis.
First shipments of the new Nylon
Double Eagles wilt be reaching Goodyear
dealers in the near future.

From Icy Quarry Waters
By the Associoted Press

BALTIMORE, Mar. 13.-An Army
veteran interrupted a shave yes
terday to rescue Richard Thompson,
=, from the freezing waters of q
lake on which the boy had been
playing when the ice broke.
Charles Gable, 27, said he saw
the youngster playing on the ice
with twin brother Raymond
through an open window as he was
shaving.
The ex-soldier, only partly dressed,
ran from the house when he saw
Richard go through the ice. The
frozen surface supported Mr.. Cables
weight for only an instant-he
swan the rest of the way. dragging
Richard back to the bank.
It was the second such occur
ence for both Richard and Mr..
Gable. Richard fell into the lake,
once a quarry, last summer. Mr..
Cable fished another youngster out
at the same spot several years ago.
Richards condition was reported
as good.
