ment employe died early today

suffered in a fire last night in hel
room at 1434 Perry place NV.
Doctors at the hospital said Mrs

of her body.
Neighbors rushed to the aid of tn,
woman when she stumbled from tn,
house to the front porch of the resi-
dence, her clothing still afire ant
nearly burned from her body.
Snow Thrown on Fire.
First to reach Mrs. Bradford was
Miss Ruth Marie, who lives al
1900 Spring place NV, few houses
away.
II heard screaming, but at first ]
thought it was children" she said
Then saw Mrs. Bradford standing
on the porch in flames. The first
thing I saw was some snow on the
porch so I began to scoop it on her
until the flames were out"
Miss Marie said she then ran for
more help. Other neighbors arrived
and wrapped Mrs. Bradford in
blankets.
Heater Seen As Cause.
Police said the blaze apparently
started in Mrs. Bradford's second
floor room at about 7::3O pm. Mrs.
Andrew Senft, 1882 Perry place NV,

Bradford was alone in the house
at the time of the fire. She said
a two-plate electric heater was
found under the bed in the burned
room.
Mrs. Buckstaff said Mrs. Brad
ford went to work for the Navy
Department several days ago. She
received word that Mrs. Bradfords
husband and daughter were leaving
New Orleans by plane for WASH
ington this morning, she said.

Western Allies 10 Ask
Russia for Accounting
|0f Austrian Removals
By the A,,oeiotsd Press

LONDON, Feb. 25.-Responsi-
BILE diplomatic officials said to-
day that the western powers
intend to ask Russia for a de-
tailed accounting of what the
Soviet government has taken
out of Austria since the war.
These informants said such list
is essential as q basis for discussion
by Big Four deputy foreign ministers
now trying to reach some agreement
on terms for an Austrian peace
treaty.
Thes attempt to get an accounting
may be made today. The days
schedule includes several specific
conditions asked by Russia to safe
guard settlement Of her claims on
what she calls former German prop
erty ffi Austria. ffftS'Hs
Yesterday the United States tried
to halt removals of such property
from Austria pending agreement on
the treaty terms.
The conditions Russia asks in
clude:
1. Stringent prohibition against
future foreign control Of all former
German property except with the
consent of Russia. Presumably,
this would include such assets as
oil refineries in which the western
powers had a stake before the war
2. A clause preventing Austria
from raising "any difficulties
against Russian export of profits
from enterprises which it would re-
ceive under a settlement. Russia
wants two-thirds of Austria's oil
production, plus control of the
Danube Shipping Co.
3. A blanket condition freeing
Russia from all obligations during
her custodianship of German assets
prior to the settlement.
4. An agreement among the big
powers for bilateral settlement be-
tween interested parties on all fu-
ture disputes involving former Ger
man property. r
American and British official oh.
servers say the meetings thus fai
have been devoted largely to efforts
to clarity the Russian demands
There has been little elaboration or
the part of the Soviet delegate, N. P
Koktomov.

Air Command officials here said
they had no details of the bizarre
incident and certainly want to find
out. Information from Caracas was
that they made the airtleld, after
four passes. and damaged the Fly
ing Fortress slightly.
Aside from the danger OF flying
the big plane undermined, the
officers here said, there was the
peril that Venezuelan forces might
have shot it down when 1t appeared
unannounced over the field, espe-
cially in view of the fact there still
is tension there over reports that
pirate planes" were planning to

adoption at the next biennial con-

When a well-established and in
fluential organization considers
changing it's name, it gives evil
dence of a new orientation in it's
aims. This does not necessarily
mean a reputation of it's past ca

the light of present realities, some
change in direction is necessary
in order to carry on its funda-
mental purpose. The meager news
paper account of the meeting does
not give much of a clue to the
significance of the proposed alter

stand some of the considerations
which may have given rise to the
