Designer Of Lancaster
Dies in Mystery Crash
OF Luxury AirIiner

WOODFORD, England, Aug. %.
Roy Chadwick, designer of
Britain's famed Lancaster bomb
er, was killed today in an unex-
planned test flight crackup of a
commercial-type plane he helped
create-a luxurious Tudor II.
Three other f1iers died with Mr..
Chadwick when the huge, four
engined Tudor faltered a moment
after taking of on an experimental
flight from Woodford airport, then
plunged into nearby field. Two
members of the crew were injured.
The plane-designed to further
Britain's bid for commercial air
supremacy-hada accommodations ,or
SO passengers and was equipped with
such innovations as a cocktail bar.
Two Trapped Under Water.
One person witnessed the crash
said the plane "just dropped like
rock at the edge Of the field" The
witness gave this account of the
accident:
Sydney Thorn, chief test pilot of
the planes builders, A. v. Roe and
Co., of Manchester, apparently was
starting bank. The plane dropped
without going into a dive, narrowly
missed a farmhouse. skidded across
field and stopped with its smashed
nose in pond.
Mr.. Chadwick, Mr.. Thorn, Radio
Operator John Wilson and a man
identified only as Squadron Leader
Wilson were killed. They were
trapped under water Of the pond in
the forward part Of the plane.
Mr.. Chadwick was one of Brit
aims veteran plane designers. He
produced the Tudor and was chief
of board Of designers which de-
veloped the 1000 horse-powered
Tudor H..
Involved In Controversy.
The Tudor II Is a low winged
monoplane with a pressurized cabin
design to cruise at 285 miles per
hour at $4,000 feet. 1t cost approx
mately $3.50, 900.
While the government owned
British Overseas Always Corp,
has ordered more than 80 of the
Tudors, neither of the models has
been accepted finally by the COM
panys technical advisers.
The ,Tudors have been involved in
much controversy, some of 1t en-
livening debates in Parliament. An
objection to Tudor I advanced by
some experts was that 1t was so
costly to operate it would be unable
to compete commercially on the
transatlantic routes. An objection
to Tudor II was that 1t was too
large to be accommodated on some
of the airflelds on African and
Oriental routes for which 1t was de-
signed.

Soap Opera by
Smashing Radio
By the Associated Press

CLINTON, Iowa, Aug. 23.-An-
noyance at a soap opera program
was the reason given in Municipal
Court today by Ezra E. Adams for
his behavior which Police Chief
Thomson says included:
1. Ramming his feet completely
through the family radio.
2. Taking a hammer to finish the
job.
3. Throwing eggs at random
around the one-room trailer in
which the Adams family lives.
His antics cost him a $40 fine
when he was arraigned in court this
morning on a charge of disturbing
the peace.
In pleading guilty Mr.. Adams ex-
planned to Judge w. A. Mccullough
that he works nights. sleeps during
the day and the offending radio is
located only five feet from his bed.

His specific purpose at. this time
is to confer with Ferenc Macy. ex-
Premier of Hungary and DR.. Gueor-
gi NJ. Dimitrov, leader of the Bull
garian Agrarian Party. At these
conferences, which will open soon,
the agrarian leaders will plan their
line of action before the United
Nations Assembly next month on
behalf of the international Peasant
Union.
A thin, wisp of bespectacled man
with a vigorous handshake, Dr.
Mack Is emphatic in declaring
that the peasants in the oppressed
Balkans and Poland represent "the
strongest opposition to Commun-
ism" and are seeking only "the right
to be free men again" He was
interviewed at his quarters in the
Roosevelt Hotel through an in
terpretor, for he speaks little or
no English.
Was Here Year Ago.
A year ago. when DR.. Mack was
comforting with officials and foreign
spokesman in Washington, he was
asked whether he considered Mar
shall Tito a satellite of Russia. His
answer now is the same as it was
then: He is not even satellite;
he is just an emissary."
DR.. Mack declared the Com
munist regime in Yugoslovia and
other Eastern European nations
are trying to make the peasants
slaves of the state, Just as they
had been slaves of the old fuedal
harons." Therefore. he said, it is
the intention of the international
Union to unity the efforts of all
peasants to fight against Com
munism."
Unable to 60 into details of the
various points they intend to es-
pouse before the United Nations
he said the committee Of which he
is one. will present resolutions about
the middle of September.
The controlling regimes in the
Eastern European countries are
now in power through the help OF
Russian occupational forces he
protested. There can be no free
elections unless the United Nations
take such action as to restore the
liberties to the people"
Was in Nazi Camp.
When he speaks of his peasant
followers the man who Sprang from
them and served five years in a
Nazi internment camp, speaks with
deep sincerity and emotion. They
are not to be confused, he explained
with American tenant farmers.
The typical peasant is the owner
of his land. He cultivates it with
his own hand. seldom with the help
of a fellow-worker. Therefore he
is both capitalist and worker, ano
as such, is naturally opposed tt
communism" DR.. Mack said.
He is convinced that the Inter
national Peasant Union-represent
ing majority of the peasants II
all the Balkan countries-is logica
answer to the needs of that turhu.

10 British Miners Killed
In Second Blast in Week

ANNFTELD PLAIN, England. Aug.
23.-Nineteen Durham coal miners
lost their lives today in Britain's
second mine explosion in little over
a week.
The blast occurred in the Morrison
north mine shortly after midnight
when "a workers were in the explo-
sion area Five severely burned and
injured survivors were brought out
by rescue squads and the 10 bodies
recovered.
Among the rescue teams were
three who had been on duty most of
the week at the William undersea
pit at Whitehaven, where 104 lives
were lost in an explosion on the
night of August Is.
The Morrison mine was the scene
of underground fires in the coal
veins in 1926 and again in 1913, and
a large part of the workings were
sealed of. These were reopened

On Train Near Berlin
By the Associated Press

BERLIN, Aug. 23.-Twenty- four
persons were reported killed and 40
injured today when fire broke out
in train running between Velten
and Kremmen in the Russian zone
north of Berlin, German railroad
officials announced,
The fire spread quickly through
the packed train and caused panic
among the passengers. A number Of
the injured were said to be in a
serious condition.
One railroad passenger car burned
completely and another car caught
fire and was damaged.

chances were very good" for a
meeting of the Foreign Ministers
Council in New York during the
Assembly session.
Diplomatic observers here pointed
out that since the end of the Mos
COW conference there has been a
steady decline in relations between
the United States and Russia and
a sharpening of the line between
East and West in Europe.
Some American and British
sources feel that since last April
Moscow has been jockeying and
maneuvering both inside and out
side the United Nations to CONSOLE
date her position for the final show
down on the German and Austrian
peace treaties.
They feel that the sharp East
West conflict. particularly between
Russia and the United States, in the
United Nations Security Council
may be due to the unsettled peace
with Germany and Austria.
These sources said they believed
there would be deadlocks and con-
fusion until the four powers come
to a settlement of the peace treaties.
Once the German and Austrian
treaties have been concluded, they
contend, relations between Russia
and the Western powers will either
be mended or the world will be split
definitely into two parts.
Showdown Expected.
Indications mounted that the
United Nations Assembly would wit
ness a great showdown battle be-
tween Russia and the Western pow
ers, with the future of the U. N.
itself at stake.
AS U. N officials prepared for
the September 16 meeting of the SIS
nations at Flushing Meadow Park,
there appeared to be little doubt
that the world organization was
reaching it's most crucial hour.
This week alone the delegates saw
several of the worlds most explosive
issues added to the already-overE
loaded Assembly agenda. Most i'm
portant of these was the Balkan
problem on which Russia and the
United States had fought in the
Security Council for many months
and finally to a Soviet irnposed
stalemate.
All the delegates were prepared
for a long and strenuous session
with Russia and the Western pow
ers fighting bitterly over such ma
jor issues as the big power veto,
Franco Spain, Palestine, the Bal
kans and perhaps the Marshall
Plan for Europe.
The United States indicated it was
prepared to push the Balkan ques-
ton to the limit to halt the alleged
attacks on Greece by the three
Soviet satellites-Albania, Bulgaria
and Yugoslavia. This issue was
formally placed on the Assembly
provisional agenda by the United
States Wednesday after Russia We
toed the last two resolutions pro-
posed in the Security Council on
Tuesday.

District Area Is Due
For Nice Day'
With Top Near 90

What the Weather Bureau calls
mice summer day" with the mer-
curry hitting around 80, was on tap
for the District today.
But even the Washington bureau
was more interested in the possibil-
ity that relief is headed for the
parched Midwest corn belt.
There is a chance that a cold mass
now passing over the Canadian
Rockies may dip as far South as
Minnesota, Wisconsin, South Da-
kota, Nebraska. Iowa and northern
Illinois tomorrow.
This could revive Iowa's corn crop,
reported by the Agriculture Depart
ment to be at "the limit of endur-
ance."
Spotty relief for crops in the
form of thunderstorms was forecast
in the Northern Plains for the week
end.
The East Coast and Washington,
too. may benefit from the eastward
cool air movement Tuesday or We'd
nesday.
The temperature tomorrow may
be a bit higher than today's top.
Yesterdays maximum was 86 re-
corded at 1856 pm.
District Weather Bureau forecast
ers, interested in the plight OF the
Midwest, dug out newspaper clip
pings dated 1901, relating the facts
OF the corn belt drought of that
year. For more than a month. the
maximum temperature averaged
above 100 degrees.
When it was over, the newspapers
reported, the farmers were surprised
to find the corn loss was not as bad
as had been feared.
Chicago was pelted by Commute
rain yesterday. but the city counted
q death toll of 48 the past few days
