Clifford at Policy Meeting.
Senate Minority Leader Barkley
told reporters after a party policy
committee meeting yesterday at the
Senate that he believes it will be
impossible to- keep q community
property provision out Of any tax
bill Congress considers.
Because Clark Clifford, one OF
President Truman's advisers was
present at the meeting. there were
indications that Senator Barkley's
views on this point would be carried
Immediately to the White House.
3. Additional percentage cuts,
ranging from about 20 per cent
In the. lowest bracket to five per
cent in the higher brackets. Re-
ductions would be retroactive to
January l, 1913.
Mr.. Knutsor's measure now pro-
vides for percentage cuts ranging
from 30 In the lowest income class
to 10 in upper brackets. This is
where the cut-back is expected to
be made. 1t would reduce sharply
the tax cuts for the highest brackets.

he thinks Mr.. Truman is wrong
In his stand that there should be

The North Carolinian conceded
that if the Knutson bill is moder-

Patience is Characteristic.
The patience he advises in the
struggle for peace is characteristic
of Mr.. Hull and the way he worked
for the founding Of the United Ma

the peace-a task which led Presi-
dent Roosevelt to call him. the
Father of the United Nations" and
to his winning of the Nobel Peace
Prize for 1945.
THE peace movement moves
more rapidly at times than at
times than at others, depending on
whether conditions are normal or
abnormal" Mr.. Hull observed.
He recalled that the United Ma
tions was set up after "the most
mature consideration" Any such
movement, he said always will be
disturbed and sometimes handi-
capped by efforts of restless, am
bilious persons and professional
agitators to start some other
scheme"
He warned against trying to sub

Berding Credited With Compilation.

documents in State Department
files.
Two research experts, on leave OF
absence from the State Department,
helped select papers from the OFF,
cial files. They are Louis Z. Gates
and Mrs. Virginia Fox Hartley.
Mr.. Hull and Mr.. Berding would
plan their work two or three weeks
ahead. Their research assistants
would Gull out documents about a
certain period and subject, Mr.. Ber-
ding would select pertinent papers
from Mr.. Hull,s files and then take
down in shorthand Mr.. Hull's recol-
lections of what was behind the
documents. With this raw material,
Mr.. Berding would start the actual
writing of chapter, conferring fire.

Some chapters were rewritten sew

Reds Believed Ready
To Tighten Grip on
Iron Curtain Area
By John M. Hiehtower
Assoeiefed Press Staff Writer

Communist Leader Georgi Dimit-
rows declaration for an Eastern
European federation suggested last
night that Russia is about ready to
undertake final steps for perma-
nently consolidating its grip over the
nations behind the iron curtain"
Dinitrov's statements in a news
conference at Bucharest do not
change the nature of Communist
opposition to the Marshall Plan for
European recovery. They do make
that opposition much clearer They
probably explain why 1t was newt
able, since any corporation between
Eastern European states and West
ern Europe under the Marshall Plan
would have complicated greatly, if
not prevented, the achievement of
the projected federation.
Candor Is Main Point.
Washington authorities in their
initial reaction to Dimitrov's asser-
tions said that the Bulgarian Pre-
mier had not actually contributed
any new ideas to information about
Communist objectives Tor the East
ern bloc. They emphasize that what
he has done lis put those objectives
on record, more simply and with
greater authority behind them, than
has heretofore been done.
Some diplomatic experts most
familiar with the political person.
alities of Eastern Europe regard the
Bulgarian Communist as probably
the most powerful figure in the
Communist Party outside of Russia.
His words therefore are given con-
siderable weight by American off,
cials as representing probable top
party policy.
American and other western power
officials have been convinced for
months that the Russians were
working toward an Eastern Euro
pean federation which might some
day lead either to the creation of
a great Slav nation or to the alb
sorption of the lands Immediately
behind the iron curtain" into the
Russian Soviet system.
Trade Pacts Noted.
That is the explanation which has
been given by best informed au-
thorities, both here and in London.
to the extensive system Of trade
treaties and other pacts which the
Communist governments have been
negotiating among themselves since
the end of the war. 1t Is also the
principal explanation which has
been advanced fer the Communist
breakdown in Hungary last year, and
for the progressive elimination OF
all non-C Communist leadership in
the states where the Communists
control the governments.
Whether the Russians and the
nom Russian Communists can carry
out their objective is another mat
ter. The history of Eastern Europe
is cluttered with the wreckage of
plans for bringing the traditionally
independent countries of that area
into a single political unit.

Perhaps you have wondered how
a jellyfish is able to swim. The
answer is found in the motion Of
the bell-shaped body, which some
times is called an umbrella" The
umbrella is made to close, and this
sends out water, giving a little
push" to move in the opposite
direction. The action is something
like that of jet plane, but it is a
crude jet and the motion is slow.
The food of jellyflsh is made up
largely of small fish. The victims
are stunned by the tentacles, which
have barbs and poison at their tips.
Then they are passed along to the
mouth.
The mouth is an opening at the
center of the body, on the under
side of the umbrella" There is a
tube into which the food goes, but
this animal is without teeth. The
fish are slowly digested after they
get inside jellyflsh.
Usually a jellyflsh is transparent.
Some of them are tinted, however,
with pink, red or blue. Certain
| jellyfsh glow in the dark.
Jellyfsh in shallow parts of the
ocean may make trips from the
surface to the bottom and back
again. During such trip they
capture what food comes their way

light and in some way tells the
animal whether 1t Is in light OF
darkness.
One kind of jellyfish makes its
lasting home on the bottom of the
sea. 1t rests upside down, as we
may say, the top of its bell touching
the sand or mud, and the tentacles
rising above.
Some jellyfish start out as eggs,
and then go into the "polyp" stage.
The polyp produces buds" and
each bud turns into a "strobila" OF
"medusa." From the medusa comes
a full-grown jellyfish.
The tentacles of jellyf1sh differ
greatly in length. Some are only a
few inches long, but others stretch
out for many feet.
