Senator Douglas screamed out
as If in pain or near hysteria when
he interpreted another Senator's
remark as implying that his efforts
to trim the appropriation bill

At another point he offered "a

Big ; Ministers Talk
OF Bigger U. N. Army,
.Curbing Communism
Secretary Acheson Meets
Morrison; Session Set
With French Diplomat
By Gornett D. Homer

Reinforcement of United Ma
tions troops in Korea and politi-
cal and economic tactics in the
struggle against communism else
where in the world were up for
discussion by the Vests Big Three
Foreign Ministers today.
Secretary of State Acheson met
this morning with British Foreign
Secretary Herbert Morrison and
arranged a separate meeting this
afternoon with French Foreign
Minister Robert Schuman in a
State Department conference room
at 1778 Pennsylvania avenue NV.
After the Acheson-M Morrison
meeting behind closed doors for
more than two hours, a State De-
Ipartment spokesman told reporters
only that they had a general 60
around on the Far East and the
economic effects Of the rearma-
ment effort"
Conference Opens Tomorrow.
The separate meetings are pre-
liminary to a three-party con-
ference opening tomorrow with
the major aim of completing Big
Three agreement on "contract"
to be offered West Germany as a
peace settlement restoring her
sovereignty just short of a formal
peace treaty.
In discussion today of what
should be done if the cease-f1re
talks in Korea collapse definitely,
Mr.. Acheson was reported pre-
pared to urge that the British
and French, along with other
United Nations, send more troops
to reinforce Gen. Ridgway's forces.
Mr.. Schuman, meeting with Mr.
Acheson this afternoon, brought
to the discussions the problem of
how to deal with anti-French
movements in Indo-China and
Morocco.
The French are battling Com
Imunist-led guerrilla forces in Indo-
China. The drain there on their
armed forces limits the contribu-
tions they can make in Korea.
In French Morocco, there is
growing agitation for independ-
ence. The United States has sew
eral airbases in the making in this
area which are considered vital in
Western plans for defense of
Europe.
Gaitskell May Join Talks.
Mr.. Morrison began his second
day of official talks with Mr.. Ache
son this morning. Hugh Gaitskell,
British treasury chief, joined
him in presenting economic prob
lens raising a threat to progress
of rearmament by Britain and
other North Atlantic treaty allies.
The British are particularly con-
cerned about rising prices that
are increasing the arms budget
burden. Mr.. Gaitskell has dis
cussed this an other economic
problems with other American Of
ficals in the last few days. Among
other things. he has sought re-
assurances that Britain can get
needed steel from the United
States, estimated at some 1000
tons in the next year,
What further economic meas
ures are proposed has not been
indicated, beyond some means of
strengthening efforts already

.Convict's Trial Opens
In S26,5OO Robbery
At Warning Home
Prosecutor and Relative
Of Gambler Describe
1850 Crime in Detuil

The Government today gave a
detailed picture of the $26,500
armed robbery and assault in the
home of District Gambler Emmitt
Warning in January, 1850.
Assistant United States Attor-
ney Arthur Mclaughlin outlined
the robbery and assault. Sidney
Stromberg, 33, a Pennsylvania con-
vict, went on trial on charges OF
robbery and assault with a deadly
weapon.
Stromberg is charged with as
saulting Warning, and Warnings

the gamblers home, 5000 Macoml
street NV.
Carried Crate of Oranges.
In mis- opening statement to the
jury hearing the case with Judge
Alexander Holtzoff, Mr.. McLaugh.
lin said the incident began wher
delivery man" carrying a crate
Of oranges rang Warnings door
bell.
Cady, who responded, was i'm
mediately rushed by the delivery
man" and two other men, includ-
| ing Stromberg, who had beer
hiding near the door. Mr.. Nc
Laughlin said.
All three, the prosecutor went
on, beat Cady with pistol butts
demanding repeatedly where is
Warning and when will he gel
home?"
Mr.. Mclaughlin said the three
assailants demanded that Cady
give them the combination to
Warnings home safe.
Maid Also Threatened.
Meanwhile, their continued beat
ing forced Cady finally to shout
for police.
His calls, however, succeeded in
Summoning only the household
maid, Louise Enos. When she came
up from the basement, one of the
men aimed a gun at her, told her
to be quiet and brought her into
the front room with Cady.
When both victims insisted they
knew nothing about Warring's
whereabouts or the combination
of the safe, they were bound, hand
and foot, and taken to upstairs
bedrooms. There they remained
for about three hours when, at
$3.50 pm, Warning finally came
home.
The gamblers fate was similar
to Cady's, Mr.. Mclaughlin re-
lated.
Forced to Open Safe.
Stromberg, he said, leveled a
gun at Warning and warned: "Mr,
Warning, I'll blow your -
head off if you don't give me the
safe combination"
Despite the threat, repeated
many times, Warning insisted he
did not know about the safe until
he had been trussed and thrown
on an upstairs bed. The prosecu-
tor said Stromberg jumped on the
bed and started to choke Warning
and said nov it's either your
life or you tell us the combina-
tion."
Warning, according to Mr.. Nc
Laughlin, held out as long as he
could, but realized his life was
at stake" He then opened the
safe for the three men and Strom-
berg took the money.
Shartly afterward. the three
men fled and Warning succeeded
in freeing himself, as well as Cady.

 It was one of those very import ant letters too. Donald had written the folks that he wanted to marry his best girl just as soon as he ar- rived.
 The H. w. Olsens finally got the letter this week. There was a pan- ciled note of explanation on the en- velope. The letter was retired with the ship and was found when the Hancock was recommissioned.
 After seven years and seven months it was really old news to the family. Donald and his sweet heart have long since married and have two fine children.
