News of the World At A Glance --
Saturday. June c. l949 CBy The Associated Press

Restricted optimism prevailed in Paris today as Russian and western foreign ministers sat down for their second day of pri- vate talks on the Berlin problem.
 U. s. secretary of state Dean AchesOn has invited Andrei Vii shinsky, Soviet foreign minister, to dine with him tonight. He will be Acheson's only official guest. The representatives of the two major powers will continue their talks over the dinner table in the hope of finding a way for East and West to cool off tension in Germany.
 Both sides apparently hold sincere belief that a solution can be found. There is a news black out during these meetings. All four foreign ministers are pledg- ed to secrecy. However, observers say the talks revOlve around at temptS to persuade Russia to re- strict veto powers. Another prob lem the four ministers are believ- ed to be discussing is how a sim gle Berlin administration can function without harming the in- terests of the four occupying pow CTS.
 In Moscow, the newspa per Pravda charged that the four power meeting in Paris is Stymied by refusal of the western allies to adhere to the PotSdam agreement of l945. The newspaper said the west is anxious to partition Ger many while every one knows" that Russia works for united Germany.
 From Nanking, the communist held former capital of nationalist China, came estimates of the strength of warning armies. The Chinese communist armies march ing south were said to number 600,000 men. Their main objective now is to seize Canton, the ref ugee capital of the nationalistS. Ranking reports said the national ists had 300,000 men defending in the south and another 250,000 de lending the approaches to Chung king. This wartime capital may become the nationalist capital again, if Canton falls.
 The British-controlled newspa- per Social Democrat said in Der lin today that the Russians are prepared to use force, if neceS- sary, to resume traffic on Berlin's strike-disrupted railways. Four power representatives met in Ser lin yesterday without finding a solution to the railway problem.
 Britain faced the possibility of a paralyZing weekend strike of her state-owned rail systems. Rail workers defied both labor govern ment and union leaders in their efforts to avoid a strike. IL is Whitsuntide, the big early summer holiday in Britain, when hundreds of thousands leave the cities for country mad beach resorts. The workers are protesting against schedules which require them to send night away from home.

I did not learn all this in one

alone except for a dear old Swiss
lady who was quite concerned over
my inability to speak French and
my not having reserved a hotel
room for that night, much more
concerned than I at that time.
OF course I had an address of

which the French people I asked
mistook for the embassy and in
formed me that very few embas-
sizes were open at that time of
the night. I also had my friends

The lady was distressed by my
naivete and advised me that all
porters, taxi drivers and generally
all service people were out to do
the tourists in, especially If they
could not speak French. It was
sound advice, but also discovered
that I could get away with just

should not be so hard). I would
often understand perfectly but beg

But that is DEPRESSING.

discovered was exactly what they

One and half hours after the

short Frenchman came up to me

the sailing was rough. No, he did

he did not know where Cite Univer-

AS a last resort, I recalled the
name of hotel given to me by
an American student in Geneva

New Corporation

COLUMBUS - Canning crop
growers from 13 counties in
Northwestern Ohio have formed a
corporation to improve marketing
conditions for their products.
The new group, Cannery Grow
ers, Inc, is under the sponsorship
of the Ohio Farm Bureau Fedora
ton, with home offices at Bowling
Green.
According to Alfred Matthews,
East Toledo, president of the
group, Cannery Growers, Inc, is a
discussion and action organization.
At the present time, Matthews
stated, growers are not satisfied
with the grading they are receiv-
ing for their products and wish
to meet and discuss problems
with canneries that buy their
products.
Matthews pointed out that this
type of organization is not new,
as there are similar ones in other
states. Although it was organ
lied primarily for crop growers in
Ohio he asserted that crop farm
ers from Indiana and Michigan
are invited to join.
