Upheld by Appeals Court
BY the Associated Press

PITTSBURGH, May 8-The
United States Third Circuit Court
of Appeals has ruled the FBI can
arrest persons on suspicion.
The decision may set precedent
for the FBI and other law enforce
ers in the fight to stamp out inter-
state crime.
The court, in handing down the
opinion yesterday, ruled the Pitts
burgh FBI Office acted legally in
|arresting Joseph w. Bianco about
IA months ago. An FBI agent
arrested Bianco at the airport here
after he got off plane from Balti-
more. The agent said he found
lottery tickets and gambling gear
in Bianco's luggage.

some of the most far-reaching
foreign policy legislation in recent
American history.

and offered administration rebut-
tai.
To the contention that the
spread of the fighting in the Far
East would hasten the end of the
war and reduce casualties, the
President responded:
"On the contrary, it could very
well lead to a much bigger and
much longer war. Such a war
would not reduce our casualties in
the Far East. 1t would increase
them enormously.
Such war would expose our
troops to devastating air ami
submarine attacks. 1t would seri-
= ously endanger Japan and the
Philippines. 1t would unite the
Chinese people behind their COM
munist rulers.
Furthermore, a deep involve
ment on our part in war in
China, whatever the outcome
there, would have critical mill
tary consequences in Europe
There is nothing that would give
the Kremlin greater satisfaction
than to see our resources COM
mitted to an all-out struggle in
E\a. leaving Europe exposed to
tbs Soviet armies"
Warned by Military.
The President described these
as some of the military dangers
against which he had been warned

The accompanying peril, he
added, is that of creating a divi.

in on China. Gen. Macarthur hat
said the United States should b.
prepared to "go it alone" if nee

Stressing that collective Sc
culity is the only sure defense
against threatened dangers, Presi

will not take any action which
might place upon us the responsl

Settlement With Tito

PARIS, Dec. 1.-The United
Nations Special Political Commit
tee today called on Russia and
her satellites to settle their differ
ences with Yugoslavia by peace
full means in accordance with the
spirit of the United Nations char
ter.
The vote on the Yugoslav reso-
luton was sos with two absten-
tionS.
The only opposition came from
the Soviet bloc. Afghanistan and
Iran abstained.
Mildly Worded Document.
The mildly wordeh resolution,
after noting that Yugoslavia was
readily to try for a peaceful set
tlement of her differences with
Iher Cominform neighbors, recon-
mended that:
/. The governments concerned
conduct relations and settle dis
putes in accordance with the spirit
of the Charter.
2. Conform with normal pro-
Icedures in diplomatic channels.
3. Settle frontier disputes by
means of fixed frontier commits
sions or other peaceful means.
Since the Soviet bloc voted
Iagainst the draft there appeared
little chance it would calm Balkan
tension.
Ask o. X. for Regional Forces.
Meanwhile, IL United Nations
countries agreed to sponsor
resolution on collective measures
which would permit United Ma
Itions use of regional pact forces,
such as the North Atlantic armies,
to resist aggression.
The agreement was reported
reached after Yugoslavia agreed
to an amended section of the
resolution which spelled out
definitely and clearly the relation
ship of the United Nations or
Iganization to reginal pact armies
in the event of trouble.
Others sponsoring the resolu-
|tion, expected to be introduced in

tee Monday, are the United States,
