 What relief to Capt. LaVoy and Del Winner when the Airdale did come back to them, because two degrees off and five minutes the Airdale would have been total loss.
 Capt. LaVoy kept this knowledge from the Airdale because they had already given up, Capt. Daubenspeck was frantic trying to get bearing and told Capt. Lavoy that, Tt will be God and you that will save us"
 The Operator at Capt Spencer cleared the air of all traffic while this rescue was taking place. After Capt. Lavoy talked Capt. Dauben- speck out of the rocks and through the tide rips into Cross Sound with a course on Cape Bingham, the Captain of the boat Elsie D., who was laso in Mite Cove ran out past soapstone Point and put on his spot light for the Airdale to follow into Mile Cove and tie alongside the LaVoyageur at 3 am.
 Capt Daupenspeck related that there was two foot of water in the galley and his brother and friend were sitting on the Wheelhouse floor,

Italian Party Leaders

After Killing Of Reds

ROME, Mar. 30.-Italian party
leaders, disturbed by two pol,ti-
cal killings in the leftist north
yesterday, arranged to meet to-
morrow to seek remedies for a
rash of violence which threatens
their campaign truce.
Communist Umberto Terrachini,
president OF the Constituent As
sembly, who arranged the truce in
an effort to bar bloodshed in the
campaign for the vital April 1s
elections, called the meeting.
Staye-swinging unemployed, some
1000 strong, marched through the
streets OF Milan today, demanding
work and relief payments. Police
stood by anxiously, because of yes
terday's widespread outbursts, but
there were no incidents Of violence.
The situation was tense as a result
Of the Staying Of two Communists
yesterday at Samoglia, Is miles west
of Milan, the Leftist stronghold Of
the north. Campaigners were
mauled, beaten, pelted with overripe
fruit and thrown from platforms
ut other points In the north.
There was street fighting in Bari,
In the south, and one man was
stabbed. Both leftists and rightists
were targets Of the violence in the
north.
There were predictions the Incl
dents may set off trouble today.
Yesterdays violence followed in
creasing bitterness over Italy's vital
April Is parliamentary elections.
Newspaper accounts said the two
Communists were shot when they
got into an argument with specta-
tors during a march from one village
to another. The injured rightist re-
portedly was a national block
speaker.

He said he considers the party

up that Gov. Dewey of New York

Washington politicians close to
the situation said an undercover
fight over the complexion of Names
delegation probably will break into
the open later this week.
Slate Traditionally Uninstructed.
The State Republican convention
is due to meet Thursday and Friday
to pick delegates. Traditionally the
slate would go uninstructed.
But politicians here said Gov.

reached a silent agreement to work
for delegation which would be
about evenly divided among their
friends.
The New York Governor and the
Ohio Senator were said to feel that
otherwise Mr.. Stassen might run
away with the plums while they
were fighting each other.
If the reputed Dewey-Taft COM
bine works in Maine, it may be an
other sign of growing friendliness
between the two major candidates.
But their supporters say the tie
up won't hold elsewhere. In Ne
braska, for instance, they will be
slashing at each others political
throats in the April 13 popularity
primary.

PRESIDENT truman laSC nlgnC
likened Henry Wallace to an an
cient Greek demagogue and sug-
gested that he go to the country he
loves so well and help them against
his own country"
Speaking at the seventh annual
banquet of the Order of Ahepa, the
American Hellenic Educational Pro-
gressive Association, at the Hotel
Statler, the President said, THE
Greeks also had Henry Wallace
=" the Greeks also had a states
man, an orator, a demagogue.
Mr.. Truman was referring to Alci-
blades, whom he called "the greatest
demagogue of all times"
"If imltators of that ancient
Greek conqueror want to see Its
(the country's) liberties subverted
he land here the President switched
to use of the personal pronoun)
ought to go to the country he loves
so well and help them against his
own country, if that's the way he
feels
In speaking of Alcibiades, Mr.
Truman told the more than 5Ot
guests "he had the voice of siren
- the looks of a god. He had the
voice that took the Greeks around
any way he wanted them to 60
1--WE are now facing that same
danger to this country" said Mr.
Truman.
The President made his remarks
after a previous analogy drawn BY
Toastmaster Dean Alfange, leader
Of the Liberal Party in New York
State.
Mr.. Alfange said that, 1900 years
ago, the armies of Philip of Macedor
were poised on the northern borders
Of Greece-the would-be conqueror

mes, preached appeasement TO the
people" said Mr.. Alfange, but they
were dissuaded from their course by
the level wisdom of Desmothenes.

candidate for governor of New York
then suggested that the perfec
formula to solve the situation over
night would be to Danish "Aeschi

with his Communist followers.
