eighth grade diploma from a Dis

The presence of such a highly
educated student might have at
tracted attention anywhere else,
but Nine. Choukanova's classmates
at the Webster Americanization
School, all adults, included me-
chanical engineer from Iran, a
Christian Brother from Colombia
and students from II foreign lands
The group of 80, including eight

at 237 Gallatin street NV.
Mrs. Louise Rosenberg, IS. wife OF
Washington grocer, of the Gallatin
street address, looked fondly-and
still bit unbelievingly--at heI
brother, Morris Kolof, 81, of Winni-

time she saw Morris, he was young
Russian soldier bound for the West

was Thursday night, when a train
from the North pulled into Union

Thirty-three years had brought
many changes. The little Russian
town in which the Mrs. Rosenberg
and Mr.. Kolof grew up is now part
of Poland, they say. Their parents
and most of the rest of their kin
were slaughtered by the Germans in
the mad purges of early World
War II.

One of the more sprightly items
that have cropped up during the
Senate Civil Service Committee S
hearings on Federal personnel prac-
tices Is the story of the amorous
Interior Department official who
carried on his unorthodox activi-
ties on Government time.
AS told by George D. Riley, COM
mittee staff director, the official in
volved chased pretty stenographer,
in Harpo Marx feshion, through the
corridors and down several flights
of stairs in the staid Interior De-
partment Building.
The story came to light indi-
rectly. During the questioning OF
Joel D. Wolfsohn, assistant direc-
tor of the Bureau of Land Manage
ment, on matters pertaining to per-
sonnel, Mr.. Riley suddenly asked
about the ''indiscretion'' of top
Official in the bureau.
Mr.. Wolfsohn said the official in

NEW YORK, Feb. 1.-The $27,-
200 which Frank Costello, gambling
figure and vending machine opera
tor, left in taxicab June II, 1914,
will be returned to him under a
verdict of State Supreme Court
jury, but the Federal Government
has claimed all but $2,967 of the
money to satisfy a lien for back
income taxes.
The jury ruled yesterday in suit
by Costello that the Police Depart
ment must return the $27 200 to
him. The 10-to-2 verdict ruled the
money rightfully was his.
Counsel for the Police Depart
ment property clerk argued at the
trial that Costello was a gambler
whose money was tainted" The
police had received the money from
the cab driver.
Costello testified the money was
obtained legally in business.
George Wolf, Costello's counsel,
conceded the Federal tax lien was
valid.

Stocks Edge Higher
But Profit Taking
Curbs Some Issues
By Victor Eubonk
Assoeiofsd Press Finonciol Writer

NEW YORK, Feb. 1.-The stock
market continued its general ad-
vance today although profit taking
on one of the widest recovery weeks
/! of the past year retarded some lead
ers. The return of margin trading
was viewed as a minor factor.
Slowdowns were frequent after
the start but dealings quickened in
the final hour as bids appeared for
favored industrials, rails and utili-
ties. Gains Of fractions to point
OF" more predominated near the
close. Transfers ran to around 870,-
900 shares for the brief proceedings.
In front were United States Steel,
Bethlehem, Youngstown Sheet,
Chrysler, General Motors, Western
Union "a" Electric Power & Light,
Pepsi Cola, Curtis Publishing,
Montgomery Ward, Westinghouse,
New York Central, Great Northern
and Goodyear. General Foods, usu-
ally inactive. opened up 70 at 43l2
on a 14,300-share block.
The brighter management-union
picture still was credited with in
spring certain amount of de-
mand. A bullish influence was the
announcement of President Truman
of an agreement in the building
trades to settle disputes by volun-
tary arbitration and without strikes.
Reinvestment purchasing served as
a prop. Mounting steel and auto
motive production buoyed individual
issues in this field. Many skeptics
regarding taxes and business, how
ever, again trimmed accounts or
held aloof.
Bonds were relatively steady.
Supported in the curb were Cen
eral Plywood, North American
Light, Pepperell, Illinois Power and

British Royal Family
Sails on Three-Monih
Tour Of South Africa
BY the Assoeiotsd Pres.

PORTSMOUTH, England, Feb. /,
-Britain's newest and biggest bat
tleship, H. M. S. Vanguard, sailed
for South Africa today, carrying
King George, Queen Elizabeth and
the two Princesses on royal tour
to tighten the bonds of empire.
The royal family will be absent
from England for three and a halt
months for ceremonial tour of all
parts of Britain's youngest domin-
ion. 1t was the first trip abroad for
the monarch and his family since
their 1889 visit to Canada and the
United States.
The King and Queen and Prin-
cesses Elizabeth and Margaret stood
on the fiat top of gray gun turret
and waved to a cheering crowd
standing amid falling snow as the
big warship swung away from the
pier in bomb-pocked Portsmouth
harbor.
The crowd was small in con-
trast to the hundreds who greeted
the royal family when they ar
rived last night to 60 aboard the
Vanguard.
The vessel quickly faded out of
sight in the gray, early morning
light, on the first day of its 17-day
voyage, with Capetown listed as
the first stop.
Soon after arriving there Febru-
ary II, the King and his family
will set out on a nine-week, TO-
000.mile tour by train through the
veldt and gold-mining country-the
first visit of q reigning monarch
to South Africa.
The AZ, ,500-ton Vanguard had been
polished to spotless perfection for
the occasion and luxurious suites
had been built in for the comfort
of the royal passengers. Sumptuous
new wardrobes for the Queen and
Princesses were aboard.
Reports from Capetown said the
South Africans were preparing a
welcoming celebration to surpass
ever seen there.

Ofacials responsible for keeping

In some quarters, Government
oficials in a position to know said
today there Is talk of invoking a
military law against certain authors
still subject to it.
1t was emphasized that the objec-
tion is not to expressions Of personal
views on political, military or inter-
national matters. What worries the
security officials is incidental allu-
sions from which smart counter
intelligence officers of foreign pow

Among their objections is that

u. 5. Policy in China
Is Bankrupt. Soviet
Newspaper Declares
BY the Associated Press

| MOSCOW, Feb. 1.-Commentine
editorially for the first time or
United States withdrawal from
mediation in China, the govern.
ment organ Izvestia said today that
American policy in China is bank
rupt," and declared that Gen. George
C. Marshall was compelled to recog-
nize this before he departed.
Commenting that Americas with
IdraWal denotes "a certain stage in
the foreign policy Of the United
States" Izvestia asserted that for
mer American Ambassador Patrick
Hurley conducted a policy in sup
port of Chinese reactionaries which
caused dissatisfaction in broad
circles of American opinion.
Izvestia referred to the Foreign
Ministers 1945 Moscow conference,
which, it said, worked for the uni
fication and democratization OF
China, causing the United States
abruptly to change its policy In that
country.
Represented as Mediation.
"Their interference in the internal
affairs of China was dressed in the
clothes of mediation the article
said.
The paper asserted that this me-
diation then assumed an extremely
unilateral character, giving military
and economic support to all meas
ures of the Kuomintang directed at
armed suppression Of democratic
organization, thus strengthening q
one-party dictatorship and 1nf1am-
ing civil war in the nation.
"It is only natural" Izvestia con-
tinued, "that under such conditions,
the committee of three played not
the role of mediation organ, but
merely covered the interference OF
the United States in internal
Chinese affairs on the side Of reac-
tionary circles of the Kuomintang.
Therefore it is perfectly under
standable why Kuomintang author
tiles violated all the DEGREES of the
Political Advisory Council, adopted
in January, 1916, by representatives
of all China's political organiza-
tions."
Backing of Reactionaries.
Izvestia declared that the United
States, which it said placed its bet
ON reactionary elements in the
Kuomintang, neglected to take into
consideration the enormous changes
which had taken place in recent
years in Chinese opinion, ignoring
the fact that unification OF China
is possible only on democratic
basis"
Izvestia declared that future
events would show whether the
United States had drawn adequate
deductions from its failure Of
whether 1t would try some new form
of interference" in the internal
affairs of the nation.
