With the official opening of
the fishing season in Montana
Just about three weeks away,
and with angling permitted in
the Little Horn, as always, To-

and even the devotees of the
more lowly worm and minnow,
are getting their fishing equip
ment in shape.
Several have already wei a
line in the Little Horn, and we
hear that a few finny beauties
have been taken along the up
per reaches of that frequently
eXasperating stream. As we re-
member our piscatorial lore, you
can occasionally snag a few
there in the spring, though
we've never heard anyone brag
too much about a catch on the
Little Horn at this time of year.
Anyhow, with this weather, you
can't blame the rod and reel
experts for getting anxious.
We're waiting for springs first
good fish story.
The weather is conducive in
deed to the practice of any
body's faVorite sport. We've
heard some pretty optomistic
talk on whot those golf scores
are going to do within the next
few days - invariably five
strokes are going to be shaved
off-iust like that. Or else,
where golf is concerned, there
is some very thinly concealed
bragging-"Boy, I'm shooting
better golf than I was at the
end of last season and if I can
just get those puts Cor ap-
proaches, or driVes) under con-
troll, I'll be shooting under par!"

Then there are the gardeners.
There are certainly some big

tory countries under certain condi-
tions are obliged TO give armed aid
In repeiling the invasion. The
United States Is a'signatory.
Ambassador Mario Esquivel told
reporters last night that he will ask
for an early meeting of American
foreign ministers under terms of
the pact to adopt measures to help
us, including military aid since we
have no army"
The pact says one country can
furnish immediate military aid to
another in event of an invasion. It
also says such aid can await action
of the foreign ministers of nations
signatory to the agreement.
Mr.. Esquivel said he will deliver
a formal request to Chairman Enri-
que Corominas of Argentina, who is
directed under the agreement to
call a council meeting. The council,
by majority vote. may then summon
the foreign ministers, who are di-
rected to issue cease-fire order and
call on the conflicting parties to
restore the situation as it existed
prior to the outbreak.
If the disputants heed the order,
the foreign ministers can recon-
mend a number of peaceful meas
ures to resolve the dispute.

The United States categorically
denied the charges and protested
their 'inexcusable" treatment.
Two other American officials have
been involved in alleged 'frame-up"
spy charges in Iron Curtain coun-
tries during recent months. Donald
F. Ewing, an American vice consul
at Sofia, was ousted in September
by the Bulgarian government, He
was accused of getting state Sc

thing was "transparently fabri-

It. Robert Dreher, U.S.N., had been
caught in the act of getting Rus

American Embassy staff in Moscow
last April. The State Department

The Romanian Legation had nc
formal comment yesterday. A

Preoteasa had returned to Bucha-
rest about a week ago and that
Mr.. Lazareanu was in Mexico at
tending a conference on short-wave
radio matters. Mr.. Preoteasa un-
doubtedly will not come back to
Washington, but Mr. Lazareanu may
return here to wind up his affairs
Mr.. Preoteasa had been in charge
of the legation here during the

Z Arab States Fight
AbduI|ah's S Plan for
Rule in Palestine
By the Assoeioted Press

CAIRO, Egypt. Dec. l1.-Open op-
position in two Arab countries to
King Abdullah's apparent plan to
annex Palestine to his Trans-Jordan
realm was reported today.
The weekly Cairo newspaper
Akhbar Ell Yom said King Farouk
had summoned the ministers OF all
Arab governments except Trans
Jordan and given them this oral
message for their kings and presi-
dents:
Egypt has not sacrificed the
blood of her sons to throw the fu-
ture of Palestine in the hands of
those who attended the Jericho
conference
Iraq's Stand Unchanged.
A congress of Palestine Arabs at
Jericho q few days ago petitioned
Abdullah to proclaim himself king
of a united Trans-Jordan and Pal
estine.
At the same time Premier Mu-
zahim al Pachachi of 1raq told a
ouestioner in Parliament at Bag
dad that his governments attitude
remained unchanged. The ques-
toner specifically asked for the gov
ernments attitude toward the
Jericho conference.
AL Pachachi said the government
was busy with a plan to carry out
q parliament resolution for united
political and military plans by all
Arab governments to guarantee "the
liberation Of Palestine from the
zionists."
Message Sent by Far0uk.
King Farouk was reported in his
message to other Arab governments
to have stressed that the Arab ref
ugees who attended this (Jericho)
conference we're not in a position
to give their views freely. Palestine
Arab refugees will return to their
homes when the hour of liberation
Of their country comes. They will
then decide the future of their
country in complete freedom.
Meanwhile dispatches from Am
man. Trans Jordan capital, said the
union of that country and Palestine
was likely to be speeded by the i'm
pressions received by King Abdullah
on his two-day tour of the districts
of Bethlehem and Hebron this week.
The Arab Legion of Trans-Jordan
occupies those areas.
The dispatch said Abdullah was
greeted by hundreds and thousands
everywhere who acclaimed him king.
