competition. A good wife may

Baltimore Mother, "a,
Slain; Woman Hunted
By the Associoied Press

BALTIMORE, July 26.-A a.
year-old mother Of three was stab
bed to death last night, and police
in several States were alerted to
watch for a woman wanted for
questioning.
Mrs. Beulah Whedbee, who doc
tors said was expecting a fourth
child, was pronounced dead of a
wound In the left chest on arrival
at a hospital. Occupants of the
rooming house where the fatal al
tercation occurred said Mrs. Whed-
bees assailant fed after telling
them. I'm going to Kentucky"
Police said the woman sought for
questioning might be a resident of
near Staunton, Va, however.
A 14-year-old girl, who said she
had been minding the victims chill
dren, told police an argument began
when a woman told Mrs. Whedbee
the children had no right to be In
the apartment of Verl Porter. The

Ranking Allied Diplomats
Conferrinq in London

LONDON, July 26 (Pj.-American
British and French diplomats met
early today for critical consultations
on differences with Russia over Ger
many. They were armed with fresh
information from Washington and
Moscow.
The conference at the Foreign Of
fee was the first of new series
arising from the crisis provoked by
Russia's blockade of Berlin. 1t came
less than IL hours after a team OF
American experts on Russian affairs
returned from huddle in Berlin
The meeting brought together:
For the United States-Charles E
Bohlen, State Department counsel
lor and key adviser at all Big -Four
conferences in recent years; Lewis
W. Douglas. Ambassador to Britain
and Walter Bedell Smith, Ambassa-
dor to Russia.
For Britain-Sir William Strang
chief of the Foreign Offices German
section; Patrick Dean, one of its
experts on German affairs; and Sir
Maurice Peterson. Ambassador tc
Russia, who returned from Moscow
about 10 days ago.
For France-Rene Massigli, Am
bassador to Britain.
To See Secretary Bevin.
The three American diplomats will
see Foreign Secretary Ernest Bevin
later in the day. Mr.. Bohlen will
give Mr.. Bevin first-hand Washing
ton views on possible methods the
Western powers might employ ii
dealing with the situation.
1t was regarded here as likely that
the talks will deal with two main
questions:
l. How far the Western powers
can 60 in discussing the overall
problems of Germany if Russia
agrees to lift the Berlin blocade
and whether this would require q
new meeting of the Big Four foreign
ministers or could be confined tc
negotiations between the military
commanders in Germany.
2. Just what steps the Western
powers should or could take if Rus
sia rejects again a demand to free
the surface transportation routes tc
Berlin.

National Committee today called on
the COP leaders to carry out now
some of the platform promises they
made in 1944-on housing and So
cial security.
This was his answer, presumably
to the position taken by Republican
spokesmen that they will have to
wait until Republican is in the
White House to carry out the 1948
platform they adopted recently at
Philadelphia.
Says Promises Must Be Kept.
THE Republican leadership has
made a great effort to convince the
people that it is not obligated to
keep its 1948 platform promises at
the special session." said Senator
McGrath. But how can the Re-
publican Party claim that it is not
morally obligated to keep it's 1914
promises?"
Administration supporters are ex-
pected to make imitation and high
prices one of the major issues OF
both the special session and the
presidential campaign to follow.
While Republicans are trying tc
figure out the best approach to the
imitation issue, however, they will be
able to pour more salt into Demo-
cratic wounds by calling up the civil
rights program in the Senate.
The anti-lynch, anti-poll tax and
fair employment practice bills are
already on the Senate calendar, and
could be called up by any senator.
If this happens Southern Demo-
Gratis are ready to filibuster. And,
while most of the Southern Sena-
tors have remained aloof from the
Southern ticket placed in the Presi-
Dental race at recent Birmingham
convention, a Senate battle over
civil rights at this time would
strengthen the move to induce elec-
tors from the South to vote for their
own ticket. instead of Mr.. Truman
and Mr.. Barkley, in the Electoral
College.
Other issues likely to be debated
whether or not the President men,
tions all of them in his message
are:
The long-range housing bill
passed by the Senate, but stymied in
the House.
Federal aid to education, also
awaiting House action only.
Displaced Persons.
A more liberal law for the admis-
sion Of displaced persons from war;
torn countries, which would require
action by both Houses.
An upward revision of the Min
imum Wage Law.
The bill to authorize an American
loan to the United Nations organ
ization for its new building in New
York City.
Foreign affairs are not expected
to play an important part in the
work Of the special session, unless
the Berlin crisis should become more
acute. This is the one field in which
the two major parties probably will,
try to avoid political clashes.

Car Hits Wall as Passenger

Three passengers in an automo-

Southern Democrats, fearing the

noon on the Senate side.
Senator Ellender, Democrat, OF
Louisiana expressed the belief that
if the Republicans fail to get clo-
ture, to limit debate, the special
session might end in a week or 10
days. He based his prediction on
an assumption that, faced by an
indefinite fllibuster, majority
would vote to adjourn the session.
He admitted, however, that II
cloture is invoked, the fight against
the bills would be over. The big
question mark is whether the chair
would hold that cloture could be
applied to a motion to take up the
bills. The Southerners contend the
cloture rule cannot be invoked until
a bill Is actually before the Senate
This would leave them the oppor-
tunity to filibuster against the mo-
ton to take up any one of the bills
