RoughageS Reduce
Swine Feeding Costs

Feeding trials show that roughages
in the swine diet should supplement
rather than replace any of the ration.
Pigs being fed on alfalfa, clover,
rape or small grain pasture, should
have the same rations as those in the
dry lot. However, those on pasture
will eat less of the commercial feed.
Specialists in the animal husbandry
department at the University of
Maryland state that pigs on good
pasture will gain about as fast as
those on dry lot, but at lower cost.
Fall narrowed pigs can make good
use Of hay fed in racks during the
winter months. Smaller pigs will eat
ground or chopped hay to advantage.

Gubitchev' S. Appeal
On Immunity Rejected
BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK. Dec. 14.-The
United States Circuit Court of Ap-
peals today rejected move by
Valentin A. Gubitchev to get a
new argument on his contention
that he has diplomatic immunity
from trial for espionage.
Gubitchev, Russian engineer, is
scheduled to go on trial December
~ with Judith Coplon, former
Justice Department employe.
His attorney asked the court of
appeals to compel Federal Judge
Sylvester j. Ryan, who is to pre-
side at the trial, to return the
matter to Judge Simon H. Rifkind
for re-argument of the immunity
question.
But presiding Judge August N.
Hand of the appeals tribunal said
the application was wholly with
out merit"
Judge Rifkind ruled several
months ago that Gubitchev was
not entitled to diplomatic immun-
ity. This is the position taken
also by the Government and the
United Nations, for which the
Russian worked.
In taking the case to the Ap-
peals Court, Gubitchev's lawyer,
Abraham L. Pomerantz, argued
that "an important question of
diplomatic immunity is involved
and with it the relationship be-
tween this country and the So
Wet Union"
Meanwhile. Judge Ryan awaited
Government compliance with his
order that detailed data on Fed
|eral Bureau of Investigation tele-
phone tapping in the case be
produced in his court.
Judge Ryan, who is conducting
pre-trial proceedings, Is hearing
arguments on a defense motion
that the case be thrown out, on
the ground it Is based on infor-
nation obtained by overlapping,
which is illegal In Federal Court

"World Government" Urged.

CHICAGO, Dec. IA (P).-Miss
Vivien Kellems, Connecticut in
dustrialist, said today that Allied
victory in World War II was de-
layed ''at least a year" because the
United States sent Russia large
supplies of electrical equipment.
She said the Russians used the
equipment to build four atomic
plants, and that "in all history no
nation has ever been betrayed as
was the United States"
Her remarks were prepared for
delivery at luncheon meeting OF
the Henry George School of Social
Sciences. an adult education insti-
tuition specializing in economics.
She said the Roosevelt wartime
administration diverted American
electrical supplies to the Soviet
Union at the cost of American
lives. She added:
Had we concentrated on fight
ing the war we could have won the
war at least one year sooner, and
thousands of dead American boys
would be alive today"
Miss Kellems, who has won wide
public notice for refusal to collect
Federal Withholding taxes from
her employees, said she asked for a
congressional investigation of her
charges as early as 1943.

III. :. Asks 80 Million
Garrett Snuff Fortune
As 'SpoiIs Of War
BY the Associated Press

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 14.-The
Government laid claim today to
the s3O,Ooo,OoO Garrett snuff for
tune as "spoils of war"
The litigation in Orphans Court
involves the estate Of Mrs. Hen
rietta Edwardina Schaefer Garrett
who died November 16, 1880.
Since then the court has re-
viewed 25,eeO claims for the cele-
brated multi million dollar for
tune.
So bitter has the struggle been
that at least three persons were
repeatedly splain in quarrels over
who should get what share of the
money.
Mrs. Garrett, a widow. died
childless. She left no will.
Assistant United States Attor-
ney General Arthur Schor is SEEK
ing to take over the estate by
backing the claim Of the late
Johann Peter Christian Schafer.
Mr.. Schor contends that Scha-
fer, a German citizen, was the
only rightful heir ard that his
property in the United States be-
came subject to seizure when the
United States declared war on the
Axis powers in 1941.
Johann Schafer was an 80-year-
old farmer living in Bad Nau-
helm, Germany, when he filed
claim to the fortune, built by Mrs.
CARROTS husband through the
sale of snuff.
Schafer alleged that his father
and the father of Mrs. Garrett
were brothers. Therefore he was
Henrietta's first cousin and closest
surviving relative.
It has been established that
Mrs. CARROTS father was born in
Bad Nauheim, Mr.. Schor said.
Schafer died in 1916 at the age
of 90 and his claim descended to
81 relatives, all farmers in the
