JUS. May Back Move
For Ties With Spain

The United States may support
move in the United Nations to
end the ban against exchange Of
ambassadors with Franco Spain,
but it isn't saying so yet. ...
Michael j. McDermott, State De-
partment press officer, was asked
yesterday about this Governments
attitude in view of announcement
in the House of Commons that
Great Britain was prepared to sup
port such a move.
Mr.. McDermott said there was
no change in the American position
since a statement last October by
Former Secretary of State Marshall.
Gen. Marshall said then he did
not think the U. N. resolution
against having ambassadors in
Madrid had broad application to
the present situation, but that the
United States would abide by the
resolution as long as it was on
the books.
Mr.. McDermott conceded this was
an indication this Government did
not think it served any useful pur-
pose not to have ambassadorial re-
lations with Franco.
But, he said, I'VE don't want to
make any statement on what our
attitude will be when 1t comes up

LOS ANGELES. Feb. 4.-Robin
Ford-Robert Mitchum's acquaint-
ance-faces a second maruuana pos
session trial.
Together with the actor and Ac-
tress Lila Leeds, Ford, 81, was con-
victed of conspiracy to possess the
drug after a raid on a secluded
Laurel Cottage last September /.
Yesterday he was bound over for
trial after narcotics officers testified
at a preliminary hearing that they
found a marijuana cigarette in
Ford's pocket on the Sunset Strip
last week.
Ford went to Jail pending his SEN
tence next Wednesday on the first
charge.
Arrested with the trio in the cot
tage was Dancer Vicki Evans, whose

Of the present Taft-Hartley Act, in
cluding the provision for the filing
Of affidavits disavowing Communism
by union officers, the requirement of
unions to file annual financial state
ments and the clause allowing en-
ployers free speech in discussing
union affairs with their employees.
Most Oppose Compromise.
Most members of the council be-
lieve an all-out fight should be made
for the Administrations Taft-Hart-
ley substitute and that no ground
should be given in the form of a
compromise. If 1t becomes known
that labor Is willing to submit to
some additional restrictions, the
labor leaders fear Congress will tack
on still other ones.
MIR. Green announced the council
voted unanimously to turn down a
CIO invitation to work together for
common legislative objectives in
Washington. He was instructed to
write CIO President Philip Murray,
however. that the federation is pre-
pared to meet with the CIO at any
time to discuss outright merger of
the two organizations.
The federation and the CIO last
held unity talk in May, 1947, in
Washington, but the conferences
broke down. Mr.. Green indicated
new talks may be in the offlng. But
he said that mere cooperation in
legislative matters would serve mo
good purpose" and that nothing
short of merger Ito eliminate dual
unionism in the United States
would satisfy the AFL.

In the Great Commission re-

Jesus spoke of the signs that
should "follow them who be-

shall they cast out demons;
they shall take up serpents and
if they drink any deadly thing,
it shall not hurt them;" note
especially the last promise:
''they shall lay hands on the
sick and they shall recover"
When Jesus was received up
into heaven, the disciples
"went forth and preached
everywhere, the Lord working
with them and confirming the
word with signs following"
Paul, in the Epistle to the Cor

chapter (the twelfth) to set

distributes the various nine

Upon the pages of Church his

who wrought nightly in

awaken sinners, and quicken
