At A Glance --- Internation'l News
(By the Associated Press) Tuesday. November g. l948

The United Nations political committee called on communist Yugoslavia, Bulgaria and Albania today to cooperate with Greece in settling the Balkan dispute. Yugo- slavia promptly said she would ignore the U. N. special committee on the Balkans.
 The Slav bloc of six nations re- fused to vote, as they did Monday when the committee approved an indictment of Greece's neighbors for helping the Greek communist rebels.
 The security council was on a new approach to the Palestine problem, trying to turn the present truce into an armistice. The arm istice would include wide separa- ton of warning Jews and Arabs, broad demilitarized zones and a reduction of armies.
 The Palestine Post said the Jews and Arabs are having preliminary talks in Paris. Unofficial reports in Tel Aviv said the beaten Egyp- tians are leaving Gaza, their main base in southern Palestine and once the seat of a newly proclaim ed Palestine Arab government. The Israeli navy has blockade arounnd Gaza, but there is no known army pressure on the town.
 Russia imposed new traffic con- trols in an effort to seal tighter her blockade of western Berlin. Six major road blocks were set at sector borders to inspect vehic- les.

Demos Snub Mrs. ROOsevelt's Plan For Party Purge
tBY Jack Bell)

WASHINGTON, (P) - Demo- crat leaders turned a cold shoul- der yesterday on the proposal of Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt that States Rights supporters be purged from the party.
 National chairman J. Howard McGrath told a reporter it will be up to Democratic members of the House and Senate to decide who gets the prized chairmanships in the new Congress.
 He indicated the national com mittee doesn't want to mix in any such possible fight. McGrath is a Senator from Rhode Island.
 He hinted further-but didn't say so flatly-that any reprisal program such as Mrs. Roosevelt suggested wouldn't fit in with current efforts to solidify Demo- crats behind the legislative pro- poSal President Truman will send to Congress in January.
 In a radio broadcast from Paris Monday, Mrs. Roosevelt said she would like to see the permanent busting of the Southern Dixiecrats from the Democratic party"
 The widow of the late President suggested that some southerners who opposed MT. Truman's civil rights program would be denied Congressional chairmanships if they aren't recognized as Demo- crats. She named specifically Rep. John Rankin Miss0, clubbing him "one of the worst reactionaries," !" and Senator Olin Johnston (S. e.

SUP Upsets The Applecart In
 Maritime Strike

SAN FRANCISCO, (P)-A jur- isdictional dispute today blocked immediate peace negotiations in the lengthy west coast maritime strike.
 Harry Lundberg, president of the AFL sailors union of the Pa cific, received assurance of full jurisdiction over steam schooners and Alaska ships.
 The SUP is not on strike but has been idled by the picket lines of the CIO longshoremen and four other striking unions.
 Employers said Lundeberg's stand brought up complications which must be ironed out" This delayed the expected reopening of negotiations between employers and the striking unions.
 The SUP claims jurisdiction over the cooks, stewards and deck crew of the disputed lumber ship Rolando, tied up at Coos Bay, Ore. The SUP also says it has authority to handle all lumber cargo on the ship. Marine cooks, engineers and Stevedores counter that this is an

200 Cuppies Could Sink U. s. Fleet

BOSTON, (P)-Extensive navy maneuvers in the North Atlantic have convinced Rear Admiral James Fife that 200 breathing submarines could sink the United States merchant fleet.
 The commander of the subma- rine fleet said that eight subma- rines of that type-known as Snor- kels or Guppies-delayed the ap- proach of an invading" group moving toward a landing at Ar gentia, Newfoundland.
 1.-TWO hundred guppies could sweep the United States merchant marine from the seas," Fife said.
 He added, however, that the United States has perfected new anti-submarine devices wh c h should be capable of matching the Snorkels.
 Units of the second fleet cli- maxed what the navy described as the most extensive North Atlantic manuevers Monday with an Gin vasion" of Newfoundland,
 Sections of the second marine brigade, under orders to capture Argentia and its heavily defended air base, swam ashore on northern beaches. They wore special Arctic equipment.

Argentia Invasion "NOt Possible" In Actual Warfare

BOSTON, (P) - Fighting ships of the U. $. second task fleet headed toward Arctic waters to- day after participating in maneu- vers off Argentia, Newfoundland, during which assault marines made successful beach landing.
 The ships will test anti-subma- rine devices under frigid condi- tions in the far reaches of the North Atlantic.
 The marines-in the second phase of the operations-pushed inland after seizing the Argentia operations base in the amphibious attack, a Boston Traveller corres- pendent reported.
 The first wave of assault troops sWarmed ashore yesterday just as sun broke through thick fog that enveloped the area.
 Planes based on the carriers Leyte, Kearsage and Philippine Sea provided air protection for landing forces and strafed and bombed coastal defenses. , The battleship Missouri, carry ing fleet commander Vice Admir- al Donald B. Duncan, slipped through the fog prior to the ma rine landings to hurl shells at shore Notifications.
 Naval officers said that in act ual warfare the Argentia defend CTS would have cut sharply the number of ships that lay off the coast and possibly could have halted the invasion.

Fear AuOn
 Missing Planes Have Perished

SEATTLE, (P)-Hope appeared faint today that any of 38 crew men and passengers on three planes missing in the North Pa cific area are still alive.
 The navy was inclined to dis count the possibility that dim ra- dio signals picked up Monday by four Alaska and west coast sta tions came from missing navy Neptune bomber. The signals came from a point west of Seattle and the navy believes the plane is down in some other sector. Nine men were aboard when the bomb CT disappeared last Thursday. The search is continuing.
 The hunt for two planes in the Alaska area was shackled by bad weather Monday. Seventeen were aboard Pacific Alaska air ex- press airliner which vanished Thursday between Sitka and Ketchikan and a crew of l2 was on navy Privateer patrol bomber which failed to return to its Ko- diak base after a flight over the Aleutians last Wednesday.

Real Estate Tax

Noble county property owners

to worry about but there are
others who must now pay the last
half of the 1947 collection.
Treasurer Ira Pryor opened the
books last week for this collec-
tion and it will continue for at
least a month. This collection
represents the last half or June,
l947, tax on real estate in Noble
county.
Treasurer Pryor said the col
lection would probably be small
for the greater percentage OF
owners in Noble county pay their

during the January collection.
When the books are closed,
