News In Brief
From Sweden

Forty ear specialists from IS
countries recently attended a con-
gress in Stockholm. From the
United States came Professor
Morton Garfield, of Yale Univer-
sity, while France was represented
by Professor Maurice Sourdille,
from Strassbourg. The latter
stated that he learned in Sweden
that it is possible to operate on
the inner ear without damaging
it. He has earlier been a pupil of
the noted Stockholm surgeon, Pro-
fessor Israel H o m gren, who
taught him the operation tech
nique which was first introduced
by Dr. Ernst Barany, of Upsala
University, and since perfected by
Professor Holmgren
A collection of seven hundred
ancient Swedish folk tales from
all over the country, many of
them handed down orally for GEN.
turtles before committed to paper,
has been divided among the uni
versities of Upsala, Lund, Stock
holm and Gothenburg as gift
from the Ninth Nordic Folk Life
Congress, which has just ended it's
meetings in Stockholm
A speed of 226 knots was at
tanned by the Swedish Johnson
Lines new cargo vessel, Los An
geles," on trial runs. So far as is
known, this is the highest speed
recorded for cargo ship. An in
teresting feature is that she is
provided with adjustable propel-
lers, the largest so far construct
ed in the world, whereby all
maneuvering is done by the cap
tain directly from the bridge.
The oldest married couple in
Sweden is found in the southern
most province of Skane. They are
Mr.. and Mrs. Nils Peter Jonsson,
and were married April r. 1876,
or more than 72 years ago. Mrs.
J0nsson recently observed her 98th
birthday, and her husband reached
the same age some months earlier.
They are both in good health, and
read their newspaper daily. The
couple have lived during the reign
of all the Swedish kings of the
Bernadotte dyrasty, the first Of
whom was Charles John XIV,
former marshal in the army Of
Napoleon.

The Soviet Press Hits Finland

Soviet discomfort with the pres
ent Finnish Government has been
reflected in daily press items dur
ing recent weeks. Reports reprint
ed from Finnish Communist and
pro-Communist sources charge the
Fagerholm cabinet in Finland with
unfriendly intentions toward the
Soviet Union, and with serving the
interests of western imperialists'
and Finnish reactionaries.
The most serious accusations, be-
cause of their implications, con-
Germ alleged violation of the peace
treaty. Thus Oct. Is the Moscow
press quoted the Finnish Commun-
list paper Vapaa Sana on activi-
ties of reserve officers clubs in
the Finnish town of Oulu and else
where.
War Study Charged
The Finnish Communists charg-
ed the officers with studying anti
tank defense, battle tactics, and
defensive warfare under Finnish
conditions - all directly forbidden
by Article XIV of the peace treaty.
On the preceding day the Mos
cow papers carried an item from
the pro-Communist Finnish paper
Tvekansan Sanomat to the effect
that Minister of Trade and Indus
try Uuno Takki had tried to de-
fend criminal activities" of the
Schutzkorps and Lolita Svard or

confiscation, it was charged, these
organizations transferred their
assets to an organization expressly
formed for the purpose. Both of
these organizations were subject
to dissolution under Article 8 of
the peace treaty.
On Oct. ID the Soviet press car
ried Tass dispatch from Helsin-
XII concerning a mysterious flight
by Finnish jet plane, which pur-
portedly covered SO kilometers go
miles, in BE minutes before plung-
ing into lake.
Although the alleged builder and
pilot subsequently radiocast a de-
NAL of the whole episode, Tass
commented that this by no means
solved the mystery.
The lass dispatch declared that
construction or operation of jet
planes in Finland is forbidden by
the peace treaty. (Article II is
presumably so Unexpectedly
In addition, the Soviet press has
recurrently cited resolutions taken
at Finnish meetings allegedly in
dicating widespread and growing
opposition to the present Finnish
Government among the Finnish
people and especially the working
class.
Resolution Cited
The latest of these resolutions
was passed by the Finnish Com
munist Party and the Democratic
Peoples Union and is quoted in
Tyekansan Sanomat as demanding
that the Fagerholm government
resign to make way for a govern
ment (which would better cores
pond to the will of the majority"
Some days ago the Moscow Lit
erary Gazette reported widespread
indignation over visit which Fin
nish Minister of Justice Tauno
Suontausta, of Internatal Affairs
Aarri Simonen, and of Defense EN-
il Skog repeatedly made to Vaino
Tanner, now in Jail as a war GRIM
inal.
According to the report, the
three cabinet members were ac-
companied by the secretary gen.
eral of the Social Democratic Par
ty.
Soviet observers recall Finnish
conduct at the end of 1889 and
again in June, 1941. and are es-
pecially alert to any signs of re-
version to those policies which
were closely linked with the name
of Tanner.

The Friendship Citizens Associa-
ton last night took up collection
for The Evening Star Summer Camp
Fund which netted $3.50, or four
days at summer camp for one OF
the underpriVileged children Of the
District.
It was suggested that the group
appropriate the money from their
treasury, but the dominant feeling
was that it would mean more as
a personal gift from the individual
citizens than as a resolution IN
the general course of business.
The group elected the following
officers: J. Robert Shaw, president;
John Chichester. first vice presi-
dent; w. G. LOCKER, jr., second vice
president; Mrs. David Anderson,
secretary: Raymond L. Jones, treas
