In Russia Is cutting its sales price
from 10 rubles to 5 In an effort
to keep circulation around SO, 900.

Russian Organ Circulates Here.
Indications are that Russia will
continue to permit circulation Of
the magazine so long as the So
viets are allowed to distribute
their English language magazine,
q, s. 8. r. in the United States.
The breakdown against the in
filtration Of information appears
concentrated in satellite countries.
An agreement with Czechoslovakia
to circulate a new propaganda
magazine there has been Cancelled
by the Czech government.
The fancy America. printed in
Russian, is one of a half-dozen
magazines produced here by the
international press and publica-
tions division of the State Depart
ment.
Circulation in Germany Biggest.
Marian Sanders, in charge of a
staff of 65 writer's and translators,
says the Office is situated in New
York because no other city has
enough fonts Of type to publish
magazines in Urdu, Korean,
Russian, Hindu and Hebrew.
Biggest circulation is concen-
trated in Germany. -Four maga-
zines go there with a total cir

Western Germany, they get wide
distribution in the Soviet sector.

single cover for wide distribution.
An embassy source in Britain
asked for 10000 copies in English.

mated at the story told from an
American viewpoint since their
history books tell it from the
British side.
Another publication, in Korean,
has a circulation of $4,000. It
is the largest circulation magazine
in the country, its authors say.
While the Russian magazine has
had its difficulties in getting as
surances that all copies will go on
magazine and news stands, the
division has been unable to pene-
trate other countries behind the
Iron Curtain. sa
They decline to enter into
agreements that will permit cir
culation of any type of publica-
ton produced by the State De-

 Over Long Island

NEW YORK, (P)-A crewman was sucked through the open door of a giant airliner early Sat urday as the plane winged its way through darkness 5000 feet over Long Island.
 A search was begun for his body.
 An airline spokesman said a powerful air draft tugged John Harris, 28-year-old stewar d, through an accidentally open door of the presSurized main passenger compartment.
 The plane, Pan American World Airways transocean strato- cruiser, was flying at about 200 miles an hour when the door flew open, and Harris was swept out into space.
 ''I felt a sudden gust of Wind,' '' said Mrs. Anna Karjicek, a pas senger. "The steward was stand ing near the door. Just like a flash, the wind blew him out"
 "A long gasp or cry" followed, she said.
 Other chewmen hurried into the passenger compartment to try to close the door, but were unable to do so because of the powerful wind pressure.
 Inspectors of the civil aeronau- tics authority and the civil aero nautics board launched an imme- diate investigation. CT e wm n were questioned after the plane -on flight from London-landed at New York International Air port.

 Federal Judge Richmond Keech signed the order in a little less than an hour after a Presidential finding board reported to MT. Truman that a resumption of coal mining is imperative.
 The justice department acted on an order from President Tru- man which declared that continu- ation of the work stoppage twill imperil the national health and safety.
 The board, created as hte first step in restoring production for 80 days under a Taft-Hartley in junction, also criticized the coal operators for imposing obstacles to bargaining. It said the opera tors set up flat demands which would have to be granted before they would consider wage and welfare issues.

 Informed sources said today Britain's famous Scotland Yard and military intelligence MI-5 is Investigating the past of everyone connected with atomic research.
 The brilliant German b orn Fuchs was committed yesterday to stand trial Feb. 28 after a Crown prosecutor declared Fuchs had confessed to giving high atomic secrets to Russia over a pc riod of seven years.
 Security officers now are comb ing the background of everyone employed at HarwelI, the British atomic research center where Fuchs was the governments top brain. Not only the ranking sCien- lists but even menial workers such as scrubWomen are being checked and rechecked.
 In Washington, security-mind- ed Congressmen are asking for detailed information on what Fuchs is accused of giving to the Russians, and who his intermedi- aries were. In his confession, the British court was told, Fuchs said he gave information to Soviet agents twice during the l943-46 period he was in the United States.
 The Western powers in Berlin accused Russia of imposing an embargo on shipments of scrap metal from Berlin to Western Germany. It was the second pro- este within a month against Rus sian confiscation of Berlin scrap bound for West Germany. The earlier protest was rejected by the Russians.

A Damnable Shame

AS soon as the guns began to
roar in Korea, prices began tc
rise in the United States. The.
costs of nearly all the staples OF
life-milk, bread, meat, sugar.
coffee-all were pushed up. There
is no reason for soaring prices
except human greed. Our food
bins are full, and bumper crops
are coming on. We are being blk
ed by profiteers, and that is all
there is to it.
All this and more taxes, too!
Official estimates as to the cost
of putting out the fire in Korea
run from five billion dollars up
ward. Soaring prices and rising
taxes mean softer dollars. Saw
ings will shrink in real value, and
a bleaker, more austere future
looms ahead of present inconven
fences.
No American worthy of tha
name will grunt against taxes to
pay for the war we are in. Free
dom is worth its price. But the
lacking up of prices without a
shade Of reason is something else
We, as individuals, cannot pro-
tect ourselves, because we have
to eat. The President and the Con
gress seem to shy away from
price controls. Does that make
sense? There is law to protect
people from robbers who would
hold them up with guns. Is pro-
fiteering on the necessities of life
anything else but robbery? It is
time for the government to step
in and do for US what we cannot
do for ourselves.
