Union.
He charged further more that
certain influential circles and
and peoples are behind the
campaign"
Secretary of State Marshall,
Chief us. delegate, proposed
Wednesday that the U.N. lber-
alize the veto right.
Gromyko did not name names
but DR.. Jose Arce, of Argentina,
who has asked the Assembly to
approve the general conference
on the veto, snapped back that
Gromyko was making a yelled
threat. Arce said it had been
suggested the United States,
Britain, France and China were
behind the move.
China's delegate, T. F..
Tsiang, spoke up to say that
the time is not yet "ripe" to
change the veto.
The Steering committee was
struggling to complete action of
the 81 items pending on the AS
sembly work sheet. Already be-
hind schedule, the U.N. gave up
its attempt to close general, de-
bate tomorrow night and sched-
uled more debate for Monday
Twenty-one nations already
have spoken; 20 wanted to talk
tomorrow.
10 to 3 Vote
Before turning to the Arce
proposal, the steering committee
decided, against Russia's wish
es, to recommend that the AS
sembly. take up an Australian
proposal intended to give the
Assembly a greater voice in ad-
hitting new members. The vote
was 10 to 3 PRUSSIA, Poland,

HURRICANE MAKES

dicaps reports drifting IN salo
Gulfport, Miss, was a shambles
with hundreds homeless and its
beaches strewn with wrecked
Yachts. Biloxi's Mayor G.. B.
cousins, Jr., called for 200 sol
diers from nearby Keesler
Field to patrol the beaches with
orders to shoot looters.
Scarcely a dozen buildings
were left standing on the
beaches along the old Spanish
Trail for Is miles between
Biloxi and Bay St. Louis, Miss.
Thousands were homeless in
fishing villages all along the
coast, and many would not even
find their villages when they
went back. Shell Beach, La,
was. wiped out, and morning
might show similar fate for the
exposed Alabama settlements OF
Heron Bay, Alabama Port and
Bayou La Batre.
Cyclonic winds of at least 80
miles an hour pounded densely-
populated New Orleans for
more than five hours, and roll
ed tidal waters before the
storm to flood much OF the
Bayou country to the South.
Nevertheless, the Red Cross an
-nounced a complete check
showed NO loss of life in New
Orleans and no hospitalized
cases.
Parishes Escape
Four Louisiana parishes - St.
Bernard, Terrabonne, La
Fourche and St. Charles - also
reported nc deaths or serious
injuries.
The storm passed over Baton
Rouge as well without apparent
injury to residents, although 90
mile velocity was recorded just
before the airport weather sta
ton blew down.
There was vast destruction at
Gulfport, Miss, however, and
the Red Cross said the East
Mole was completely demolish-
ed. Creosote tanks burst and
fell, flooding the harbor, and
the beach was Uttered with
wrecked yachts, some 70 feet
in length.

structed to hold back the sand,"
he added.
Captain Hatch arrived in Will
mington to take command of
Billy Decover's sleek Jim-Jam
during the current SENCBA
fishing rodeo. He has taken fish
ing parties out in search for
game fish for over IS years and
said he had "fished in
Australia, New Zealand. Dutch
East Indies, Peru, Chile: Nova
Scotia and many other parts of
the world"
Inlet Too Shallow
During the interview, Captain
Hatch remarked several times
about the possibilities of deep
sea fishing off the lower North
Carolina coast, but he always
stressed the point that until
something is done about the in
let, the larger boats which need
more than four feet of water
will not come here.
Captain Hatch, who calls Mi
ami, Fla, his home, said there
was plenty of game fish off the
coast of North Carolina and
added the prospects for catch
ing the "big ones" were good.
"The migratory fish must
travel up and down the coast,
and they must certainly go by
this area" he said.
"The lower North Carolina
coast is as good a place as any
to catch fish, Is to 20 miles
off the coast is far enough to
land the big ones," he said. The
veteran captain said this is the
first time he has attempted to
fish off the Wrightsville coast.
Held Record
The captain held the record
for the largest broadbin sword
fish boated for a number OF
years. He related how hs land
ed the big boy off the coast
of Montuck, Long Island "about
20 years ago." His catch weigh
ed sos pounds and held the rec
ord until last year when Hans
Henrick boated one that topped
his by Is pounds. Henrick's
catch was made in the same
vicinity, Hatch said.
October is probably the best
month to catch white marlin,
as they are migrating to the
SOUTH" Hatch said. "There
must be plenty Of that species
off this coast at that time and
I am going to do my best to
land a few of them," he said.
He pointed out that the reason
no great number of marlin had
been caught off this. coast was
due to the fact that few boats
had been fishing for them.
"There is also a great posi-

Closes Case
Meanwhile, from Washington
it was reported today that the
United States District Court of
Appeals had formally closed the
case concerning State Airlines
of Charlotte, which had asked
the Civil Aeronautics Board to
set aside the decision granting
Piedmont permit TO fly the
Wilmington to Cincinnati route.
President Tom Davis of Pied
mont said that his company was
standing by awaiting CABS fl
nal decision with everything in
readiness to open the service
linking North Cardinals major
cities with the west. This deci-
sion is expected momentarily:

was called for Monday in Mes

cost of living and there was a
possibility it might become a
full work stoppage.
Start Build Up
With the collapse of their
strike campaign against De
Gasperi, the Communist and
leftwing Socialist parties at
tempted to build up their big
"day of protest" demonstrations
tomorrow with an appeal to
mbmembers of De Gasperi's
Christian Democrat party to join
in.
The leftwing appeal called on
Christian Democrat workers "to
unite tomorrow with your bro
theirs in protest against hunger,
against misery and against the
high cost of living"
Interior Minister Mario Scelba
denouncing the labor agitation
for it's political inspiration, as
serted that conditions in Italy
now do not favor an attempt by
the Communists to seize power
by force if other means fail.
He admitted, however, that
there were some people in Italy
who were deluded by the Com
lmunists' repeated assertions
that they have no intentions of
Selling power by force.
"There are a few people who
believe the Italian Communists
have discarded from their pro-
gram a violent conquest of pow
er and the institution of a total
itarin dictatorship along the
lines of Fascism" Scelba said.
Palmiro Togliatti, the Italian
Communist leader, reiterated
again today that the Commu-
nists were innocent of any plans
to use the demonstrations to-
morrow as a cover for an insur-
rection against the government.

First Hand Report:
You Can't Walk In 1ZO
P Hurricane Wind

Il, 2 a. m. closing time and
drink by candlelight. Everybody
had hurricane insurance and was
unworried as to whether their
homes or businesses were going
to blow away.
Bar Debates
The big debate in the bars was
whether a man could stand up
in 12O-mile winds. He can't. Po-
liceman Joe McCants can answer
that one. He was tipped off bal
ance in an alley and tossed about
40 feet against a doorway. His
right arm was broken.
Max Coan and this writer on a
trip to Red Cross headquarters
were caught in 100 mile gusts.
For every two steps forward we
made four in the opposite direc-
ton and the only thing that
saved us from following the hur-
ricane was the availability of
parking meters. We hung on to
those and made our way around
from post to post.
At 100 miles an hour a man
cannot walk. He can only crawl.
Once while trying to make it two
blocks from the office of the Post
Times, 1 was upended and had
to crawl. I weigh 165 pounds.
Rough On Cars, Too
Cars have a pretty rough time,
too. The wind merely shudders
them from bumper to bumper,
but the driving rain will drown
them out. Milt Sosin and E. N.
Hamilton, two Miami newspaper
men, will verify that. They had
to push their vehicle into the lee
Of a building through torrential
rains for three blocks.
What effect will the hurricane
have on the season for the mil
lionaires and multi-millionaires
who transplant bits of New York,
Chicago and points cold and porth
to Florida? None.
Ocean Boulevard, a seven mile
long strip on swank Palm Beach
one-quarter of a mile across the
waters of Lake Worth is damaged
a bit, but famous Worth avenue
l. New York's Fifth avenue
transplanted - has lost nothing
but a few bougainville vines.
OF course, the royal palms
mostly are stripped Of their
fronds and a goodly number are
down., but it only takes five or
six years to grow them.
Both Palm Beach and West
Palm Beach were cleaning up a
few hours after the top winds
passed and As days hence a cas-
ual visitor will notice nothing
wrong.
Down here where the big crop
is tourists, little money will be
lost. In fact, the town lost only
one-business day - and not all
did that. The drive-it-yourself
places were available with a lit
tie persuasion and while business
wasn't exactly brisk, they did
some business, mostly with news
papermen. -
The net result of the hurri-
cane: Considerable damage to
public utilities, but the sign in
dustry will profit. So will roof
ing concerns.

East City Flooded
The entire Eastern quarter OF
Tokyo, covering three wards ir
the bomb-battered industrial
slum areas, was covered with
six feet of water before dawn
when an embankment at a crit
cal point between the Naka and
Edo rivers crumbled along a IS
foot stretch.
A wall of water 10 feet high
slammed through the breach,
spreading out over the Eastern
quarter until it stood six feet
deep at the Kanamachi railroad
station. The LIST Cavalry division
rushed $50 assault-boats and
landing craft, along with 4,50o
troops, into the danger area and
evacuated SO, 1000 families.
It was estimated that al
together some 600, 900 Japanese
fled their homes toward the
higher ground in the center Of
the city to escape the flood and
the danger of disease brought
into the city by the muddy wa
tiers. Kyodo news agency re-
ported a casualty toll of seven
drowned and six missing.
A flood crest on the Edo river
was only 4 IL miles away when
the dyke broke. Army engineers
rushed to a point North of the
break and blasted two huge
gaps in the Edo dykes on the
opposite side of Tokyo with l..

Hand Report:
By BEN PRICE

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla,
Sept. 19.-R1A hurricane these
days along Florida's gold coast
is about as exciting as a roller
|coaster ride and not nearly as
dramatic.
These people have learned to
lick the big winds which whistle
in gusts up the cleared streets at
120 miles an hour or better. Most
houses are storm proof and if
it weren't for the signs, plate
glass windows, falling trees, and
power lines, there would be little
danger.
Anyhow, for the year-around
residents the hurricane was a
chance to sit up in the bars un-

81. Congress could shut off
any further government pur-
chases of agricultural commod-
tiles for export relief, and let
the rest of the world starve.
"2. Congress could ration do
mestic consumption -. to a
point at which there would be
annual SURPRISES of all scarce
commodities after taking care
of export requirements.
Three Parts
SO. This plan is divided into
three parts. CAY An immediate
but gradual reduction in
government purchases of agri-
cultural commodities for for
eign relief. (B) Congress could
set export quotas for next
years crops on all commodities
that are in short supply =.
(C) Congress (should' restrict
as much as possible the use OF
Marshall Plan funds so as to
encourage foreign countries to
purchase our capital goods
rather than our consumer prod

Little's talk came on the heels
of a prediction that Thanksgiv-
ing turkeys will cost about 80
cents a pound-30 cents more
than last year. Leonard K.
Dodge, a Chichester turkey
raiser, made that prediction on
the basis of high costs of grain
and labor.
