VA Reported Seeking
100000 From V.M.I.
On Veterans Tuition

The Veterans Administration
was reported today looking to
Virginia Military Institute for a
500 900 refund of money advanced
the Lexington school for CT tuition
fees.
What course v. M. I. would pursue
appeared to hinge on a legal opin-
ion. Maj. Gen. Richard J. Mar
shall, superintendent. said he
would seek a ruling from the Vir-
ginia attorney general, j. Lindsay
Almond. jr.
According to the Associated
Press. the VA claim is based on
the fact that v. M. I. has no tuition
fee for cadets living in Virginia.
Under the CT education pro-
gram. the VA pays colleges approx
imately $500 for each veteran
enrolled. About $500 represents
tuition and the remainder other
expenses.
The VA said v. M. I. paid or cred
tied GIs $500 each. 1t contends
the money should have been re-
turned to the Government.
A VA official would not permit
use Of his name, said 1t might be
possible for v. M. I. officials to show
that the cost Of uniforms is an
essential educational expense at
that school.
About $20o of the $500 federal
payment for veteran students at
v. M. I. is used for such educa-
tional costs. In addition, the vet
eran students get subsistence
money from the Government.
The law provides that VA shall
pay 1.-The customary cost of tut
ton. and such laboratory, library,
health, infirmary. and other SINH
lar fees as are customariE
charged, and may pay for books,
supplies, equipment and other nee
essaly expenses, exclusive OF
board. lodging, other living ex-
penses and travel ."

Kostoy's present status is not
clear. Since he was fired as a
top-rank member of his govern

his appointment as director of the
Bulgarian National Library.
In Yugoslavia. which is at odds
with the Kremlin. the press in
sists Bulgaria has arrested 300 Of
her Communists as ''spies for Brit

Bulgaria said the report was un-
founded.
The Kremlin slapped down
Dinitrov more than a year ago
for trying to form federation
of Eastern European States. Mos
cow called the step premature
and evidently considered it con-
tanned overtones of nationalism.

a reporter.
But Senator Knowiand, Repub-
lican. OF California said that as

nothing policy" there is danger
of all Asia. including India, fall

Senator knowland said the
Senate will not permit the State
Department to sweep this situs-
ton under the carpet and forget
about it." He asserted the de-
partment has an obligation 10
decide on China aid program
and submit 1t to Congress.

final answer" to China's plight,
the Californian said.
Senators Knowland. Fulbright
and Bridges were among group
OF so Senator'S who signed a letter
urging hearings on the McCarran
bill when 1t was introduced earlier
this year. The measure now Is be-
fore the Foreign Relations Com
mittee. but that group has taken
no action on 1t as yet.
Under Senator McCarran's pro-
posal. this Government would give
China $500. 900 900 for the fol-
lowing purposes: $700 900 900 for
military use, $500. 900 900 for civil
ian relief and recovery and $780,
100000 to be used to stabilize
China's currency.
Last year. Congress gave the
Nationalist Government a $780,
100000 grant, OF which $i25 900. =
900 was for military purposes. OF
this total. $54 200. 900 now remains
which Congress has directed Presi-
dent Truman to use for relief and
recovery In non Communist areas.

BuIgorions Deride Belief
That Dimitroy Is Out

LONDON, April 16 (P.-Bul-
garian leaders deride Western sug-
gestions that Premier Georgi
Dimitrov of that little Iron Cur
tain country is on the skids-but
the West goes right on speculat-
ing.
AS usual with countries In the
Soviet orbit, the Bulgarians have
left the circumstances of Dimit-
rows trip to the Soviet Union a
mystery. They are very terse in
describing their political maneu-
vers.
There are three lines of thought
In the West.
/. That Dimitrov already has
given up control over Bulgaria. A
State Department spokesman in
Washington. supporting this idea,
said he believes the recent Bulga-
rian purge. In which Traicho Kos
tov was fired as one of its deputy
premiers, may be related to Dimi-
trov's home leave"
2. That the Kremlin is annoyed
because Dimitrov failed to prevent
conditions which resulted in the
purge, and has called him to Mos
cow to explain.
8. That he is genuinely Ill. and
has gone to Russia to die. He is
known to suffer from heart all
ment and tuberculosis of the skin.
Evidence Is Scant.
There is only scant evidence to
back any of these theories. i
News from Bulgaria is tightly
censored. Even now it is not clear
how extensive was Dimitrov's re-
cent purge of Communist ranks;

A concert under the auspices of

the American Broadcasting Co.
for a first appearance here last
night. The group consists OF
Leonard Sorkin and Joseph Step

cello. The chamber music en-
thusiasts who are patrons of the
Whittall and Coolidge concerts
turned out in good number for
this program and cordially well
coined the newcomers.
The combined tone of these
musicians is very harmonious and
they are skilled in supplimenting
each other in coloring and dynam-
les. So pleasant is the sound
produced by the four players that,
as in the "Vivace" of Haydn's
Quartet in c major. op. 81, No.
2" it seems to rush together to
meet in an exceptionally well
blended ensemble. This lovely
work by Haydn. serving as intro
ductory number, showed the spe-
cial style Of the group to the best
advantage. 1t was played with
charm throughout but the ada
gio" was perhaps the outstanding
instance of the players musical
feeling. The slow opening phrases
