Neutral" Nations Seek Delay To Consider Crisis

PARIS, (PD-The "neutral' na- tions on the security council Sat urday were reported bidding for more time to press their efforts to patch up the east-west Berlin cri- sis.
 The Little Six" - Argentina, Colombia, Syria, Belgium, Canada and China-Was understood to have moved 10 postpone council meeting tentatively set for today to give mediation plans more time to jell.
 The neutrals were reported weighing a direct appeal to the Big Four to settle their Berlin differ ences by mutual concession and cooperation. This new trend in the ticklish Berlin blockade was said to have emerged after the six "neu- trals" heard a report from Argen- tine foreign minister Juan Bra  muglia on his secret talks with Russia's Andrei Y. Vishinsky.
 There was no immediate indica- ton whether the western powers would be receptive to such pro- posal. They have stressed repeat edly they would not negotiate with Russia under duress. It was no. known what provisions the direct appeal idea made for lifting the blockade.
 Only clue to a possible softened Russian attitude implying possible acceptance of some such appeal, is Bramuglia's optimism over his talks.

Berlin Crisis May Precipitate World War HI Suddenly

LLANDUDNO, Wales (P)-Win- ston Churchill warned Saturday World War III may burst upon hu- manity at any time because of the Berlin crisis.
 Only the United States posses sion of atom bombs stops a com munist juggernaut from engulfing all Western Europe, the wartime prime minister declared in an ad- dress prepared for the Conserva- tive party annual conference.
 Americans would be guilty of murdering human freedom and committing suicide themselves" if they agreed to destroy their stock of atom bombs, Churchill said Russia is demanding in the United Nations that the atom bombs be scrapped, and the weapon be out laWed at once.

 An American spokesman said earlier the United States, Britain and France had replied that the

finitely patient little factory girl he
meets at the carousel. It is jules
goodness against Billy's devils, and
even when the battle pauses for an
interlude of spirited song-as even
battles do-the haunting drama is
undiminished.
X 4 \ +
"Carousel" towers above the usual
musical offering of the theater In
the variety and orderliness of its ma
terial. It bothers to take a good
look at the life OF a Maine factory
town in the 1880 period. It deals
with the girls in the woolen mill,
the tycoon who owns the company,
the mill boarding house, the carnival
and what it means to such q COM
munity, the fisher folk and the spirit
of neighborliness which inspires the
annual clambake.
Hammerstein's lyrics are won-
drously comprehensive in describing
these people and their lives and he
is never forced to torture the Ian
guage in achieving the effects Of
you're a Queer One, Julie Jordan,
when I Marry MIR. Snow" June
is Bustin' out All Over" This Was
a Real Nice Clambake," Billy Bige-
lows song of his expected baby, and
those mentioned previously as the
musicals big tunes.
AS lyricist, Hammerstein more
than compensates in his zestful
songs for the mood of sadness which
moves through "Carousel's" basic
story Of love. Rodgers music is the
perfect expression of every word his
partner wrote.
The company is not the one
which opened "Carousel" on Broad
way, but it has been quite as ex-
pertly chosen. Iva Withers is the
replacement for Jan Clayton and
Julie, and even an old arden admirer
Of the latter can find no complaint
to make Of the change. Henry Mi
chel as Billy, hardly in best voice,
is still a convincing and winning
successor to John Raitt. Gloria Ell
wood makes Carrie Pipperidge the
most ebullient girl in town, although
not quite the vocal equal of the girl
who was played by Jean Darling.
Eric Mattson Is the old Mr.. Snow,
and no one could say anything alniss
about Betty Striegler,. Mario De
Laval, Jane MCGOWAN or, Kenneth
Mackenzie. They are all fine,
bright people, and so are the others
with lesser or ensemble duties.
Miss Agnes DeMille's ballets seem
to have been overlooked until now
but they are up to the standard OF
"Carousel."
1t is a rarely high standard, which
you would not want to miss.

the enthusiasm which it has in
spired since it first began to sing.
This happily imperishable aspect
Of "Carousel" is chiefly the work of
its authors. They wrote 1t for keeps,
but the Theater Guild has taken no
chance on the intrusion of an in
ferior cast. It's replacements for
John Raitt, Jan Clayton, Jean Dar-
ling, Bambi Lynn, ETC., have differ
ent names and represent different
talent balance, but "Carousel" spins
as winningly as ever. The produc-
ton by 10 Mielziner and costumes by
Miles White also have been kept up
to pitch. The Guild was always
proud that way, and with every good
reason.
Perhaps the most remarkable
thing about "Carousel" Is the con-
tinued sparkle Of its music. The
contemporary consumption of even
bad music Is at rate no less than
terrifying, and the wear and tear
to which that of "Carousel" has
been exposed is terrifyingly doubled
But, sung in context, "1f I Loved
You," You'll Never Walk Alone
and the others regain the luster OF
q early hearing. That for the radio
and the record people, If Petrillo
has left any such!
When a play, musical or other
wise, has favored as many seasons
as has "Carousel," the explanations
of its endurance become endless. Il
they did not, of course, critics woulc
have been forced to shut up about
it a couple of years ago. On the
contrary, however, they are pre-
pared to 60 on as long as "Carousel,
