Russia Believed StoIIing
Truce as Trading Point
BY the Associated Press

TOKYO, Aug. 29.-Some Allied
observers say the Communists
want to prolong the stalemate in
Korean peace talks so the Reds
will have a trading point at the
japanese Peace Treaty Confer
ence in San Francisco.
That trading point is the threat
of full war in Korea.
All the Russians have to hold
over the heads of the countries
they want to follow their line is
fear. If they suddenly make peace
in Korea, their threats and thun-
dering oratory won't carry the
same sting.
japanese businessmen, prepar-
ing to do business again in the
Asian sphere, realize that a war
with Russia would delay this coun-
try's recovery for years.
Japanese Outlets Cut OFF.
China's going Communist. along
with Manchuria and North Korea,
already has robbed Japan of so
per cent of her old outlet for ex-
Iports.l A war would cut off the
other 40 per cent.
If the North Korean and Chi
nese Communists still are battling
U. N. forces in Korea, the Soviets
must feel that Japan will be a
little more reluctant to sign uni
lateral treaties, once the major
document has been approved and
signed.
Some observers say the appoint
ment of Brig. Gen. William P
Nuckols as Gen. Ridgway's repre-
sentative at San Francisco is a
recognition by the United Nations
of the linkup between the Kaesong
truce and San Francisco meetings
| But Gen. Nuckols himself told
this correspondent: There is
nothing to it,"
Will Use Army Phones.
He also denied a report that
the advance United Nations head
quarters at Munsan, Korea, would
be linked by direct line to San
Francisco.
"All we have are the Army
telephones" Gen. NuckolS said.
These connect 9th Army head
quarters in Korea with Gen
Ridgway's headquarters in Tokyo
Gen. Nuckols will leave Tokyo
Friday for San Francisco.
He will be the U. MS expert
on affairs in Korea. Gen. Nuckols
has attended most of the Kaesong
talks. His job was to brief cor
respondents. He will be the only
military man at the conference
from this theater. He can fill in
President Truman.
And what he can tell the Rus
slams about Kaesong may startle
them.
At one point in the Kaesong dis
cussions, the Reds chief delegate
Lit. Gen. Nam II. almost agreed tt
revise their demands for a buffel
zone along the 38th Parallel.
The next day, however, Nam I
reneged.

Madness and Deaths
In France Ascribed
To Poisoned Bread
BY tn. Associated Pres.

PARIS, Aug. 20. - Poisoned
bread was blamed today for a
bizarre illness in the South of
France which has taken four lives,
driven people mad and forced
some to attempt suicide. Three
other towns reported epidemics of
ordinary food poisonings.
Strange tales of bread that
makes men mad" came from the
tiny Rhone River port of Pont st.
Esprit, where four persons have
died since the weird malady
struck August II.
At least 200 persons have called
for urgent medical care and some
said their brains were wracked
by hallucinations of being sur
rounded by flames or monsters.
Ban on Flour Ordered.
Physicians found that all those
stricken had eaten bread from the
same bakeries. Some bread was
thrown into the river and the fish
died. Authorities are thinking of
banning fishing in the river. The
use of flour from a number of
mills supplying the town already
has been banned.
One theory is that the -four was
poisoned with ergot, a cereal para
site which f1ourishes in rainy
years. officials thought the illness
might be recurrence of "fervent
fever" known during the Middle
Ages to have been caused by ergot
and to have driven men mad.
They have given some of the
bread to mice and the mice have
become paralyzed.
Germs Found in Milk.
In another village-St. Galmier
100 persons were reported
i'll after eating ice cream. One
source said paratyphoid germs

Capehart Charges
Truman Distorts
Facts in Price Fiuht
By the Assoeioted Pres,

Senator Capehart, Republican,
of Indiana accused President Tru-
man today of having "hit below
the belt" and of misrepresenting
facts to try to make Congress the
Scapegoat for high prices.
In counter blast to Mr.. Tru-
mans denunciation of the new
economic controls law, Senator
Capehart said the President him
self let initiation get out of hand.
His statements. in speech pre-
pared for Senate delivery, came
as the Senate Banking Committee
planned to start hearings tomor-
row on the Presidents demands
for elimination of three worst
provisions" in the controls law
which Congress passed last month.
Before the committee is a bill
to eliminate them. 1t was intro
duced by three Republican Sena-
tors who said Congress should
grant the Presidents request and
then hold him accountable to the
Nation if heHfails to check infla-
ton.
Proposed Changes Listed.
The bill would knock out of the
law:
l. The So-called Capehart
amendment permitting individual
sellers to pass on to consumers all
cost increases from the start of
the Korean war to July 26, 1851.
2. A ban on price ceilings too
low to allow any retail or whole
sale seller the same percentage of
profit earned before the start of
the Korean war on each item he
sells.
3. The existing prohibition on
livestock Slaughtering quotas.
The three Republican sponsors,
Senators Ferguson of Michigan,
Nixon of California and Welker
OF Idaho, said they would fight to
make the three changes. Senator
Welker expressed this view:
I'VE believe the President sees
these provisions as an excuse to
blame Congress for imitation, in
stead of keeping the blame him
self where it belongs. If these
provisions are removed and he
fails to control imitation. then the
Nation will know whom to blame. ~
Senator Capehart said:
One might we'll argue that the
Congress might as we'll repeal
them (the three provisions) be-
cause up to this moment I am
thoroughly convinced the Presi-
dent will sabotage the price and
wage control features of the De-
fense Production Act unless he
can write his own rules"
His speech, Senator Capehart
said, was a reply to a message to-
Congress last Thursday in which
Mr.. Truman called the Capehart
amendment an economic BOBBY
trap"
Senator Capehart said the
amendment was drawn by Sen
ate-HouSe subcommittee and mot
by myself alone" He called it
an equitable form of price roll
back.
Chairman Maybank of the Sen
ate Banking Committee an
nounced Defense Mobilizer Charles
E. Wilson and Price Stabilizer
Michael v. Disable would testify
tomorrow on the three amend
ments. He said Economic Sta
bilizer Eric Johnston will testify
Friday and that hearings then
will recess until September 10.

The trials of policeman's i'm
petuous daughter, who sets out
to avenge his death at the hands
of a narcotics mobster. are un-
dergone with spirit by Alexis
Smith in "Undercover Girl" at
the Capitol. If the time ever
arrives for her to sit down and
assess her career, however, she
will have to mark this off as
almost total loss.
Miss Smith is an uncommonly
handsome woman, all right, but
it takes more than this to make
you overlook the shortcomings Of
"Undercover Girl" at least when
she is as far away as the dis
tance from the loge to the Capt.
tol Theater screen.
This Universal International
example of the futility of law
breaking is something less than
the best proof you've ever seen
that crime does not pay. A brief
resume ought to be quite enough
for you, maybe even too much.
A Los Angeles detective (Scott
Brady, trying to trap some dope
peddlers, follows a lead to New
York, takes a look at Miss Smiths
gams while she is practicing gun
merry and decides he needs
woman's help. Since her father
has just been knocked off by
the mob he's after, she's glad to
oblige.
Her aid consists of an imper-
sonation of a Chicago moll rep
resenting an unnamed buyer
which would not fool a 6-year-
old television fan. She fools the
dope big shots. though, in spite
Of some blunders that would give
her away to a freshman in a
numbers-writing academy.
There is not much point in
blaming the actors for this. There
is not much point in blaming Di-
rector Joseph Pevney, either. He
at least has made the actors read
the lines of the script, though
they often seem completely as
founded to be saying what they
are saying.

ADOLESCENCE

During the earliest period of a
child's life, there is complete depen-
dence on the adult in order to main
tain life. From infancy on. there is
a gradual development of indepen-
dence. BY the post-adolescent pc
riod, the individual should be able
to have sufficient maturity to stand
on his own feet and regulate his own
life.
Problems of independence are Of
ten intensified during adolescence,
when many physical and psychology
cal changes occur Allegiance may
be transferred from the parents to
the teacher, the coach. a popular
idol, or some contemporary. The
individual may have a conflict be-
tween the desire to grow up and
achieve adult status, and the yearn-
ing for the safety and security of
childhood ties.
Not only may it be a difficult pc
riod for the adolescent himself, but
also for the bewildered adults who
are trying to cope with him. Pa
