u. 5. Seeks 10 Avoid
Soviet Veto Showdown
On U. n. Arms Issue
BY the Assoeiutsd Press

NEW YORK, Feb. 8.-The United
States moved cautiously today in
seeking to avoid q veto showdown
with Russia In the United Nations
over the deadlocked issue Of gen.
eral arms reduction.
While reported confident Of win
ming in an eventual vote, the Amer
ican delegation was ready to go to
any lengths short Of retreat from
its basic position to avoid wide
open split.
Soviet Veto Doubted.
This feeling Of American Delegate
Warren r. Austin was shared by
several other Security Council mem
bers, who pointed to the futility Of
passing" any arms resolution which
was opposed fatty by great power.
Whether Soviet Delegate Andrei
A. Gronyko would choose to invoke
the veto in the event Of an American
majority was not known, nor was
1t clear at this stage whether the
Council would hold the question to
be substantive and thus subject to
veto.
One delegate privately expressed
the opinion that he did not believe
Mr.. Gromyko would risk world pub
lie opinion by vetoing any arms res
olution which was shown to have
virtually complete support.
Report Due Tuesdoy.
The Council set a meeting for
Tuesday to hear report from the
six-nation committee which debated
three days behind closed doors In
fruitless efforts to reconcile the
American and Russian views. The
committee finally drafted separate
resolutions embodying the two op-
posing stands.
The core of the dispute was Amer
ican insistence that the terms OF
reference of a proposed 1l-nation
arms reduction commission should
state specifically that such body
should handle only conventional
weapons and not infringe on the
work or duties of the already func-
tioning Atomic Energy Commission.
Mr.. Austin reiterated the Amen-
can position in speech today be-
fore the American Association for
the United Nations.

QUESTION: What are the
names of the Hebrew months and
to which English months do they
correspond?
ANSWER: The following are
the names of the Hebrew months
in the Jewish calendar. Naturally
the beginnings and the ends of the
monthss do not exactly correspond
with the beginnings and endings
of the English months. The fol-
lowing parenthetic enclosures are,
roughly speaking the correspond
ing English months: Nissan (ApriD,
Iyar (May), Swan (June), Tamuz
(July), Alb (August), Elul (Sep-
TENDER, Tishri (October), Chesh-
van (November), Kislev (Decem-
ber), Teveth january, Shevat
february, and Adar (March).
QUESTION:: Why is it that the
beginnings and endings of the He
brew months do not correspond
to the beginnings and endings of
the English months?
ANSWER: The Hebrew calen-
dar is based on a lunar system and
corresponds to the revolutions of
the Moon around the Earth. The
English calendar is based upon a
solar system and corresponds to
the revolutions of the Earth a.
round the Sun.
QUESTION: Were the Jewish
months ever referred to by any
other names?
ANSWER: Yes. Many Biblical
books refer to the months as the

the latter indicating that the corn

ferred to as the Month of "Ziv'' Il
Kings GIL which means Hardy
Fruit" indicating that the fruit
then ripening had Withstood the

Cheshvan is referred to as the
month "BuP Il Kings 6:38) which
means rain indicating that the

BILLIONS TO AID RECOVERY OF EUROPEANS
Secretary of State Mar shdII's Plan AmpIified
 at News Conference

WASHINGTON. June 12.-IR- Secretary of State Marshall said today that when he proposed Euro pean nations get together on an economic program he was thinking of Russia and Great Britain as well as other nations.
 Marshall made the proposal in a speech at Harvard University a week ago. He was bombarded with questions about it at a news con- ference today, his first since the speech.
 In his replies, the Secretary of State disclosed that Winston Churchills urging of United States of Europe had influenced his developing the idea that the Europeans should work out their own economic recovery plans and that the United States should ex- tend financial help to put them through.
 He gave no estimate of how much financial assistance might be re- quired but other State Department officials have been talking in terms of billions Of dollars a year over the next several years.
