Mr.. Ferrer was deemed one of the
few major sort of actors otherwise
too busy to get around in ruritania

studios in England, at Elstree, it
also is quite a significant truck
farmer at the same address. The
studios total acreage at Elstree is
120, which is divided in half be-
tween sound stages and exterior
lot, and farm which is devoted
to growing vegetables to be SOLD
in the English market.
Elstree studios chief non-farming
project at the moment is the pro-
Guction of Edward, My Son" whose
stars are Spencer Tracy and De-
borah Kerr. The picture is being
directed by George Cukor, whose
supporting cast of performers has
been recruited from English stage
and cinema players.
ANY one who is curious to learn
how top-fight stage stars lived in
1912 will find a lavish answer pro-
vided in Easter Parade" which
comes next to LoeW's Palace. The
apartment in which Fred Astaire
lives, as hero of the big musical, is
supposed to be the reproduction OF
the living quarters of a major
Broadway star of 1912.
Photographs of the late John
Barrymore's old suite at the Hotel
des Artistes provided MGM's Sc,
designers with precisely what they
wanted.
From Abingdon. Va, home of the
Barter theater and its inspired head
man, Robert Porterfeld, comes a
rumor that is startling even from
Abingdon. 1t relates to discus
sion of a Barter production this
summer of Hamlet" with Robert
Breen in the title role. Mr.. Breen,
whose postwar occupation has been
acting as ANTA's executive secre-
tary, is an old Hamlet" hand.
The program envisaged calls for
him not merely to play the Danes
role in Abingdon ruring the sum-
mer, to stay on for full years
road tour with Barter after the
close of the regular season.
No project is beyond the contem-
plation, or even the execution, OF
Producer Porterfeld.

Probe Begun as 7 Die
In Fishing Boat Upset
Mile Off Jersey Coast
By the Associated Press

MANASQUAN, N. j., May o.
A Coast Guard inquiry has been
started in the drowning of two
men today when a 40-foot party
fishing boat capsized in heavy
swells a mile out in the ocean.
Thirty-tWo persons were rescued.
The survivors, picked up by near
by fishing craft, included one
woman
The Squirt, owned and captained
by John Bauer, Sc, of Westfield,
overturned off Manasquan Inlet
early this morning, IS minutes
after leaving Kens Landing with
other fishing boats.
All "a persons aboard were
thrown into the windswept water.
Nearby boats went to the rescue,
picking up the bobbing survivors.
Capt. Bauer told police the Squirt
ran into a heavy swell, rolled and
took water on the starboard side.
Many OF the passengers, he said,
rushed to the opposite side of the
boat and the Squirt rolled over on
the port side and lay there. The
men started sliding into the water"
he said. That made it worse"
Three Naval District Coast Guard
headquarters in New York launched
the inquiry. 1t. C. j. Mcguire of
New York was assigned to head
the investigation.
The dead were identified as
Charles R. Heidorn, 62. of Eliza
beth. N. j., and John Soehler, 81,
of Cranbury, N. J.

that military bases of the United
States also exist in the territory of
states bordering on the Soviet
Union"
Tass said "the present situation
where certain countries, especially
the United States, have numerous
military bases in territories Of other
member states OF the United Ma
tions is incompatible with the fun
damental principles Of that organ
ization and tends to aggregate anx-
iety and instability In the interna-
ton situation"
Discrimination Laid to u. s.
The United States is violating the
Soviet-American trade agreement
"by practicing discrimination against
the U. S. S. r." the statement said.
This shows with whom rests the
responsibility for the intolerable sit
uation that has arisen in this (in-
ternational trade) sphere"
The statement also found fault
with the fact that the Marshall aid
plan is being administered unilater-
ally and not through the United Ma
tions. 1t blamed America for the
end of U. N. R. r. A.

U. S. Declared Shifting Blame.
BY putting the blame on the So
Wet Union for the big power failure
to conclude a German peace treaty
TasS said the State Department is
attempting "to shift the blame where
it does not belong"
IF the Government Of the United
States adhered to the attitude taken
up at the Yalta and Potsdam con-
ferences, on which the Soviet gov
ernment insists, the Council of For
eign Ministers would beyond any
doubt have successfully coped with
it's tasks when it was examining
the German question at the Moscow
and London conferences last year.
Tass said.
Instead, the Russian news agency
said, the United States rejected three
Soviet proposals concerning a Ger
man peace treaty, establishment of
central economic departments and
organization OF an German gov
ernment.
Tass said the United States not
only failed to fulfill the Yalta and
Potsdam accords on German de-
militarization and characterization
but is pursuing a directly opposite
policy towards Germany, relying on
German aggressive circles and Ger
man monopolies which in the past
served as support for Hitlerism,
and encouraging the restoration of
Germany's military-economic posi-
ton
This policy, Tass said, is to this
day being pursued at the London
conference Of six states on the Ger
man question"
Jap Treaty at StandstilI.
American contradiction" of the
Potsdam decision was cited again to
explain why the business of peace
treaty with Japan remains at a
standstill."
Meanwhile, the United States "is
assisting aggressive circles of Japan
to restore Japan's military economic
potential, thus damaging the cause
Of peace" Tass said.
Concerning evacuation OF troops
from China, Tass quoted the State
Department as saying American
forces are in that country now and
added America has not to this day
fulfilled the obligations 1t under
took.
without doubt these circum-
stances also merely encourage ex-
tension and intensification OF civil
war in China"
Tass mentioned Americas recent
rejection OF Russian proposal for
simultaneous evacuation OF Soviet
and American troops from Korea.
1t said this rejection is leading
to maintenance Of the present divi-
sion OF Korea contrary to
the decisions Of the Moscow Con-
ference to assist in the creation OF
united. independent, democratic
Korean state"
Interference Charged.
The Russian statement alleged
hat American military aid to
Greece and intervention in the
Italian elections were examples Of
interference by the United States
in internal affairs Of other states"
Tass claimed the State Depart
ment ducked the question OF eco
nomic and political dependence on
the United States by countries where
it said America now maintains mill
tary, naval and air bases.
Another avoided issue, said Tass,
was the aims and purposes which

Tass rejected without foundation"
the State Department assertion that
Russia was responsible for blocking
