If that long. Soviet actions In
Greece, the reported Russian plan
to squeeze the western Allies out OF
Berlin, plans to create a democratic
republic In Northern Italy, and
increased activity by Communists In
France are all part Of a pattern
of Soviet policy either to force the
United States out of Europe or to
compel us to assume an attitude
which inevitably will lead to armed
conflict with the U. s. s. r.
The entire situation should be
clarified after the Supreme Soviet
meets January 80. This highest
Russian governmental body Is called
only on specific and important occa-
sions. The top-ranking leaders OF
the Politbureau make a report to
the nation" but the report is written
more for foreign than for domestic
consumption.
Reports Indicate Trend.
Our observers do. not expect any
candid expose of the immediate
plans of the Kremlin dictators. But
such reports always give SUFFICIENT
indication Of the trends which other
governments must expect.
The meeting this month will EN-
phasize- according to available in
formation-the fight Russia is max
ing to save the world from the greed
Of "imperialist- democrats" who are
In danger Of becoming tools of the
United States. While the Marshall
Plan will be the official whipping

possible to read between the lines

policy.

State Department Plans
Americans Evacuation
By the Associated Press

State Department officials re-
ported last night that plans are be-
| ing made for the evacuation from
Palestine of American consular per-
sonnet and any other American
citizens who may want to leave be-
cause of the Jewish-Arab warfare.
There are approximately 5000
Americans in Palestine, which has
been marked by strife since the
United Nations formally proposed
splitting the country into separate
Jewish and Arab states.
In addition to the plans under
way for possible removal of the con-
sular force and others, the depart
ment is preparing formal warning
to any Americans who take part in
the Palestine fighting they risk loss
of their American citizenship.
They also forfeit the right to any
protection or intervention upon this
country's part, officials said.
At least one American has been
killed in the conflict.

Trilobites Are Worlds
Most Ancient Animals

Trilobites, the earth's most an
cient known animals, have been col
lected from the rocks of Virginia's S
Shendoah valley. They were
shelled crab-like creatures, more
closely resembling the king crabs of
North Americas Atlantic coast than
anything else living but only very
remotely, if at all, related to these
curious, long-tailed sea animals, ac-
cording to Smithsonian institution.
The trilobites first appeared on
earth about 500 million years ago, in
the so-called Cambrian geological
period. They were among the first
animals that left any fossil remains.
Apparently they existed in enormous
numbers, crawling along the bot
toms or swimming in the shallow
waters of low beaches.
For well over 100 million years
they remained the dominant crea-
lures on earth. About 300 million
years after their earliest known
traces they became extinct. BY that
time the first amphibians were
emerging from the seas to become
the ancestors of the reptiles and
mammals. The reason for the ex-
tinction of the trilobites is complete
ly unknown. They may not have
been able to endure a radical
obopoa of clira ata Mora ef6 ciart
animals which had come into the
seas, such as the ancestors Of the
present mollusks, may have de-
stroyed them.

Hay Fever Technique

A new method of hay fever treat
ment is with pollen extracts. How
ever unless the pollen extracts are
mixed with oil or gelatin SUBJ
stances, they are absorbed into the
system too rapidly. If reactions oc-
cur after an injection, usually in
about one hour, the patient is
far from the doctors office and un-
able to secure proper observation.
Because of this, most physicians
prefer the watery ragweed extracts
even though they have no prolonged
effect. DR.. Leopold c. Lazarowitz
of the New York hospital uses the
principle of chilling to overcome this
difficulty. He bandages small ice
bag to the mid-outer part of the
arm for Is minutes before and is
minutes after a subcutaneous in
lection of ragweed extract. In this
way the circulation in and around
the puncture is retarded. The re-
lates, which live as PARASITES in the
tory, enabling the patient to be able
to stand doses of extracts from three
to four times larger than normal.

Cured 329 deaths from diphtheria

cities there was none with rate in
excess of 10. The number of cities
with no deaths from diphtheria was
decreased from SO in 1945 to 80 in
