|Six-Nation Agreement
10 Set Up State in
West Reich Reported
By the Assoeioisd Press

LONDON, May 22.-Western pow
er diplomatic ofiicials reported to-
day the existence Of a six-nation
accord for the formation Of west
ern German state whose authority
would be limited chiefly to control
over finances at home and abroad
These officials discounted reports
that q new bid would be made to
Russia before such a state is set
up, to bring about a united Ger
many.
They contended that the next
move in that direction must be
taken by the Soviet government.
Farley on For Nearly Month.
For nearly a month now, the
United States. Britain, France, Bel
GUM, The Netherlands and Luxem-
bourg have been attempting to shape
the economic and political future
Of that part of Germany which re-
mains under the control of the
western powers.
In Allentown, Pa, Charles E.
Bohlen, State Department counsel
lor, told the Allentown Morning Call
there had been no definite decision
by the six nations on a western
German administration.
According to diplomatic sources
here, a tentative decision has been
reached by the six nations to call
constituent assembly about Sep
tember l with broad authority tc
draft a constitution for Western
Germany.
A formal communique, announc-
ing the six-nation accord, probably
will be issued early next week as
the concluding act Of the confer
ence, the diplomatic sources said.
Only technical details are delaying
this communique, these sources said
Guarantees Demanded.
The chief factor delaying formal
announcement of the agreement, one
source said, are the demands OF
France and the Low Countries fol
guarantees that Western Germany
industry shall not be built up tc
the point where the Germans would
be able to invade neighboring coun-
tries.
In the creation Of a German gov
ernment, the diplomatic informants
said, the three western occupying
powers would have a veto chiefly

An International Red Cross en-
ploye, Florence Collins from Swift

An agreement had been reached
to exchange two Arab prisoners for

sprayed the Jews in Notre Dame
Hospice with automatic fire. The
Jews apparently got back into the
hospice two days ago after abandon
ing it once.
Some Legion infantrymen at Zion
Gate said small number of Jews
attempted to escape over the south
wall of the old city while the moon
light fighting was at its hottest, but
were scattered.
The Legion's commander in the
Old City said Jewish authorities
tried to bargain with him last night
to agree to permit the evacuation
of approximately 30 patients from
Hadassah Hospital on Mount Sco-
pus where there is maze of Ha-
CANA machine-gun and mortar po-
sitions.
Il replied we would permit the pa
tients to evacuate the hospital
whenever Hagana surrendered" the
commander said. But we have nc
intention of giving the Jews
chance to repeat their old trick OF
sending up more guns and amnu-
milton in ambulances."
The commander said the Jews
had not answered his terms, trans
mitted previously through the Amer
ican consul, in which he promised
the delivery of noncombatant at
the hospital and Hebrew University
to the International Red Cross and
the treatment of combatants as
prisoners of war.
Inspects Old City Wall.
I accompanied the Legion COM
mander on an afternoon inspection
of most Of the 21a -mile-long Old
City wall dating from the 18th CEN
tury.
From a sandbagged peephole In
the vicinity of New Gate we saw the
fire -blackened walls of the Convent
of the Sisters of Marie Reparatrice
which the Jews were said to have
hurriedly burned.
A few yards farther rose the
shrapnel-chipped roof of Notre
Dame Hospice, just out of sight OF
Allenby Square, the jump-off point
for Jewish attacks against New
Gate.
Legion infantrymen yesterday en-
gagged in street fighting in an at
tempt to clear Allenby Square.
In the shadow of the citadeI
f1anking Jaffa Gate, we started due
west at the distant fortress profile
of the Jewish Agency building. Its
face appeared to bear no shell DAM
age. Terra Sancta College also
appeared unscathed.
New City Split in Half.
The newer portion of Jerusalem is
split approximately in half between
the Jews and the Arab Legion. The
Legion controls the east, southeast
and northeast districts and has
pushed the Jews back from sections
of Beth Israel and Sanhedria in
the northwest.
Bitter fighting has developed
along st. George road between the
Musrara and the Mea Shearim dis
tricts. The Jews still hold such
western sections as Kerem Abra-
ham, Ahva, Mekor Barukh, Rehavia
Nikiforiya, Tablet. Kiryat Shmuel
and the German colony.

from Bethlehem busted" Jewish
defenses in the German colony and

Proposed Dam
Would Damage
Glacier Park
Park Service Released

The National Park Service is
much concerned over the pro-
posed Glacier View Dam that
would flood a large part of the
principle game range on the west
side of Glacier National Park and
seriously damage the wilderness
aspect of the park.
A U. S. Army engineers hear
ing on the proposed dam on the
Flathead Rivers's north fork is
scheduled at Kalispell May 25.
Glacier Park Supt. J. w. En-
inert said that the dam if built
would effect a large percentage
of Glaciers white-tailed deer, elk
and moose.
He appreciated the stand of
va r i o u Montana sportsmen's
associations and civ i clubs in
opposing construction of the dam.
He felt that keeping Glacier in
tact would have lasting benefit to
Montana and the nation.
Mr.. Emmert pointed out the
estimated $4,000 600 annual rev.
enue h a comes to Flathead
County year after year from va
cationers who are attracted to
the beauties of Glacier National
Park. H a | f of the park is in
Flathead County and h e other
half in Glacier County. 1t is an
alpine unspoiled area created in
1910 for the enjoyment of all the
people.
Yet the proposed North Fork
dam would put denuded flats
along most of the parks western
border. T h average summer
fluctuation of reservoir level
would be II feet, and there would
be dry years when the summer
vacationer would see great mud
flats caused by h lowering of
the reservoir by nearly 50 feet.
The sight would be blemish
in the shadow of Glaciers alpine
peaks.

Stone To Begin
Fishing June | In
Lower St. marV'S

The summer fishing season on
Lower St. Mary's Lake will be
begun by Fred Stone June l, he
said while in Browning last Sat-
urday. The daily catch. as of
past seasons, will be supplied
Glacier National Park consumers
and other markets in this sec
ton, Stone said.
Indicating the magnitude of
Stones operations is the large
quantity of fish netting he uses,
approximately 500 yards being
in use for the daily catch. Nets
are laid every night and lifted
early the next morning, depths
ranging from 80 feet to 100 feet.
However, only under unusual
circumstances occasioned by the
movements of fish does Stone
cast at the lower depth.
The fishing season exte n d S
from June l to October l, when
epicureans delighted by the de-
licious and firm flesh of the Lake
Superior whltefish have had
their fill.
The Lake Superior whitefish
spawn in Canadian waters and
select the waters of St. Mary's to
seek their livelihood. Aside from
fresh water clans, which abound
in the waters of St Mary's, the
whitefish confines themselves to
a vegetarian diet.
Though having been caught in
the waters of St. Mary's for the
last so years, there are no indica-
tons of depletion, Stone said.
Its freedom from natural enc
mics, it's robustness and it's pro-
life reproduction enshrines it as
the ''kingfish" of St. Mary's.

Two Picked Up For

And OF all things.
There's Charles J. Blackman
and Clarence Butterfly. f or in
stance, being hailed before Judge
L u k in last Saturday on the
charge of driving a tie m of
horses and wagon while under
t h e influence of Intoxicating
liquor"
Apprehended by State High
way Patrolman Anderson the day
before on the outskirts of Brown
ing, who sp e n close to three
hours in hide and SEEK game
with them. both were fined 500
by Judge Lukin.
Patrolman Anderson's expert
ence with Blackman was especi-
ally exciting, the officer said. The
teamster W as sighted between
town and the Great Northern de-
pot. He managed to outwit the
officer by driving his team into a
hiding place Of tall brush.
Unlocking one of the horses, he
rode it bareback to a point near
the Great Northern snowsheds
west of town and then dismount-
ed. Hitching it nearby. he sought
hiding in the snowsheds. But
! Patrolman Anderson, as in h e
dog and the squirrel chase, found
the episode too thrilling to be
without a happy ending.
The happy ending came with
Patrolman Anderson espying the
lone horse and presuming that
that the rider was somewhere
near by. The clue was correct,
with Blackman being picked up
in the darkness of the snowsheds
and made to give an accounting
to the law"

Small Boys Cause
Heavy Loss To
Electric Coop

Small boys using insulators of
the Glacier County Electric Co.
op line in the vicinity of the city
dumping grounds as targets for
their .22-rifles are causing the
institution heavy financial loss,
according to Email Ru d m a n.
manager.
He estimates that the loss APP
proXimates annually $500. Last
week insulators replaced cost at
least 5000, he said.
Besides this loss, there existed
the hazard of a broken power
line because of the shooting, thus
visiting upon Browning light and
power consumers economic loss
and inconvenience.
Firm steps to end the nuisance
are in the offing, with parents to
be held financially responsible,
it was understood.
Under the REA set-up, in
which every consumer shares in
the welfare of tide Glacier Coun-
ty Electric Coop, economical ad-
ministration is their concern.
Obviously, wanton destruction
|of its property is a leak that
challenges the policy of lower ell
ectric rates.

evidence from the peddler that it is
legally owned.
