One person who has seen the

This person said that the letter
includes a statement that DR.. Con-

himself.
The Commerce Loyalty Board was
represented as feeling, however, that
there was absolutely no question Of

Two Groups Defend Condor.
Meanwhile, two scientific groups

Prof. Robert E. Marshak, chair

Eight days ago on February "a
after a most exhaustive and pains
taking investigation, loyalty board

Mission Conference
Told u. n. Should Find
NewPaIesfine Solution
by The Associated Press

BUCK HILL FALLS, Pa, Mar. 4.
The Foreign Missions Conference,
an organization representing 118
Protestant foreign mission boards,
was told the General Assembly of
the United Nations should reopen
the Palestine situation for review.
Such action was advocated yes
terday by DR.. Glora Wysner, ex-
ecutive secretary of the Committee
of Work among the Moslems and
the Rev. Garland Evans Hopkins,
associate foreign secretary Of the
Methodist church.
DR.. Wysner, former missionary to
the Moslems In North Africa, urged
that the u. N. Security Council issue
a cease-fire order and submit the
controversy to the international
court of justice.
Bipartisan Policy Urged.
"The Palestine situation can only
be solved through conciliation or
some kind of a compromise agree
ment," she said, adding "the United
States Government instead of fol-
lowing q partisan policy should
now adopt bipartisan one"
Mr.. Hopkins urged the 800 dele
gates to the conference to join the
Committee for Justice and Peace in
the Holy Land. The committee,
headed by Kermit Roosevelt, seeks a
review Of the Palestine controversy
by the General Assembly.
Christian education as conducted
by missionaries in Africa was de-
scribed by DR.. Mory Ross as one
of the most powerful stimulants to
ultimate self-government in coun-
tries under foreign rule. DR.. Ross
is executive secretary of the con-
ference's African Committee.
Missionary Plans Presentation.
In a presentation Of missionary
plans for Africa, DR.. Ross said that
missionary schools had created a
natural desire for self-government
by developing initiative on the part
of Africans in economic and polit-
ical affairs.
He urged an increased number of
rural and urban training centers In
Africa, specializing in teaching such
practical matters as crop rotation,
animal husbandry, physical and sex
hygiene, home economics and other
useful subjects.

u. n. Council Stalled
|0n Palestine Issue
BY the Associated Press

LAKE SUCCESS. Mar. 4.-Th.
Security Council is stuck on what K
do about Palestine, and delegate!
took a 24-hour recess today to dt
some private talking about the prob.
lem.
The official reason given for tht
one-day adjournment was the i'll.
ness of Camille Glamour, specia
Lebanon representative in the coun.
Gil The unofficial reason is thai
United Nations delegates want more
time to try and work something out
Before the council adjourned yes
terday it became apparent that al
least a portion of the American reso-
luton on Palestine partition is head
ed for defeat. Canada and China
joined Belgium and Syria in op-
posing a section calling on the
council to accept the partition
scheme as laid down by the 1S47
U. N. Assembly.
Should this opposition crystalline
sufficiently to bring passage OF
q Belgian counterproposal, which
would eliminate acceptance of par
tition, the American plan would be
stripped of its major point. Another
part of the American resolution pro-
vides for a Big Five committee to
consult on the Palestine problem.
Russia took no part in yesterdays
debate. Soviet Delegate Andrei A.
Gromyko made the delay possible
by cancelling a Friday meeting Of
an Atomic Energy Committee which
conflicted. The council session then
was held up until tomorrow morn
ing.

Gen. Wedemeyer said aid should
be carefully scrutinized" to see
that money is spent for what it was
intended.
1--WE don't want to make rich Chi
nese richer" he said. 'but the Chi
nese people are worthy of our help
II do not think we should create
strength anywhere, economic or
military, until we have the Mill
tary forces to back it and the
United Nations is equipped to main
tain peace anywhere In the world"
Gen. Wedemeyer said.
Idea Called Too Late.
He was asked whether it would be
wise to give China economic help
now and military aid later If the
problem becomes very accurate
Your idea is sound, sir" Gen.
Wedemeyer replied, "but I'm afraid
It's too late"
Two years ago, right after Japan's
defeat, that would have been all
right, he said. But since then, he
added, forces opposing the Chinese
government have received more
military strength.
The committee already has learned
that the views Of Gen. Macarthur
on help for China are at sharp odds
with those of Gen. Marshall and
the President.
Gen. Macarthur, in a state
ment cabled to the House group
from Tokyo yesterday, asserted that
underlying all issues in China is
now the military problem"
The supreme commander did not
refer directly to Gen. MarshaIls
plea to the Chinese to broaden their
own government. Nor did he men
tion Mr.. Truman's assertion that no
American aid can substitute for
"the necessary action that can be
taken only by the Chinese gov
ernment."
Points to Global Situation.
But Gen. Macarthur told the
House committee 1t is INFINITELY
more important to support China
against destructive forces which
threaten her engulfment" than 1t
is to bring about internal reform" F."

III Jews Are Killed
When Arabs Ambush
Hagana Mi|itiamen
BY the Assoeiofed Press

1
JERUSALEM, Mar. ARABS
ambushed a Hagana patrol near
Ramallah today and police said
II Jewish militiamen were
killed.
Arab sources said the patrol was
| trying to penetrate through the
hills to lay mines on the highway
when it encountered Arab defend
ers. A two-hour gunfght resulted.
There was no estimate of Arab cas-
ualties.
Arabs said the Jewish patrol came
from Kalandiya settlement, which
adjoins the airport where the ad-
vance party of the United Nations
Commission charged with carrying
out Holy Land partition landed yes
terday.
The Ramallah road is the only
outlet to the north and west of
Jerusalem which Arabs have used
since the partition vote last No
vember.
British heavy guns roared out in
the Holy Land during the night un-
der Britain's new policy of firing i'm
partially on Jewish or Arab ag-
gressors.
Two and six inch guns were fired
at Arabs attacking a Jewish quarry.
The Arabs fed. No casualties were
reported.
Three-inch mortar shells scattered
an Arab patrol which had blown up
culvert on the road between Jeru-
salem and Mount Scopus. One Arab
was believed killed.
Jews from the Hebrew university
joined British troops in repulsing
what appeared to be an Arab at
tack on Jewish positions IN Jeru-
salem.
In London, the Earl of Cork and
Orrery, retired admiral Of the fleet,
predicted Russian airborne land
ing in Palestine after British troops
withdraw.
He told the House of Lords dur
ing foreign affairs debate last
night that large scale civil war
between Arabs and Jews probably
would follow the British departure
unless an international police force
were established.

Defense counsel claims Durant &C
tually was discharged after his re-
turn to Washington from active
duty In Germany on May II, 1916,
three weeks before he and his bride
were arrested.
Durant's trial opened at Frank
furt, Germany, in December, 1916.
and was moved to the Pentagon in
February, 1947, to be near witnesses
in the United States. The board
returned to Frankfurt early last
April and Durant was convicted In
Germany April 80, 1947.
Another contention in behalf o1
Durant probably will be that the
court composed of officers attached
to the Army In Germany had no au-
thority to sit in Washington.
During most of the war, Durant
was attached to headquarters of the
Army Air Forces at the Pentagon
