By the Assoeiaied Press

LAKE SUCCESS, Jan. 31.-The
12-member United Nations Trus-
teeship Council voted yesterday

vote was 10 to 2. Britain siding
with the Soviet Union.
Sir Alan Burns. British member
of the council. explained he op-

Post Office Records
Al Knoxville BROUGHT
To Remington Trial
BY the Asseeiated Press

NEW YORK, Jan. 31.-The
assistant postmaster at Knoxville,
Tenn. was called as a prosecution
witness today in the Governments
efforts to prove William w.
Remington, former Commerce De-
partment economist, committed
perjury.
Remington is on trial in Federal
Court on a charge that he lied
when he told a Federal grand jury
last May that he never was a
member of the Communist Party.
The Knoxville man, Ernest o.
Beeler, brought to court records of
the controversial post Office box
1892 at Knoxville, which the Gov
ern,nent contends was used for
Communist mail. It also charges
that Remington used the box.
Box Rented in 1897.
Mr.. Beeler said the records show
the box was rented March 8, 1887
by Horace Bryan for the Workers
Education Committee. an organi-
zation for teaching trade union
ism to members of an AFL union
of IVA workers.
The box remained in Bryan's
name until December 80, 1888, Mr..
Beeler said, when the boXholder
was listed as Francis Martin. 1t
continued in Martins name until
December 81, 1899, and the keys
were surrendered February l,
1940, Mr.. Beeler said.
Bryan testified earlier, as a de-
fense witness, that he was a mem
ber of the Communist Party in
1887. Several Government wit
nesses testified that Martin also
was a party member.
Says Remington Blushed.
William r. Cornelison. one OF
three Federal Bureau of Investi-
cation agents who interviewed
Remington in Washington in 1947
testified that the defendant
blushed and appeared upset when
asked whether he was introduced
by Joseph North. then editor OF
the New Masses. to anybody
known as John" or Helen"
John" was the name used by
Jacob Golos, head of a Soviet
spy ring. Helen Johnson" was
a name used by Miss Elizabeth
T. Bentley, former Soviet spy ring
courier who testified as Gov
ernment witness at the trial.
Mr.. Cornelison said Remington
then said he had met John"
at a luncheon and subsequently
was introduced to Helen" whom
he understood to be Johns wife.
David K. E. Bruce, Ambassador
to France, offered testimony yes
terday that Remington always
favored a tough policy on Ameri-
can exports of strategic materials
to Russia in 1948.
Mr.. Bruce testified by written
deposition as the defense rested
on the 26th day of the perjury
trial.
No knowledge of Connections.
The Ambassador, who is now in
Washington, said in his deposition
that he had mo knowledge
whether Remington had Com
munist connections.
At a time when the United
States was anxious to get man
ganese and chrome from Russia,
Mr.. Bruce testified, Remington
Favored very strong curbs on ex-
ports from the United States to
Russia"
Il thought he was unduly re-
strictive," the Ambassador said.
The deposition was made in
Paris last September 7. Defense
attorneys said talks with French
Premier Rene Pleven prevented
Mr.. Bruce from coming to New
York to testify.
Mr.. Bruce said he saw Reming-
ton occasionally" when Mr..
Bruce was acting as assistant
Secretary of Commerce between
July, 1947, and May Is, 1948.

Dairy Industry Began As
Cotton Crop Was Hit

Mississippi's great dairy indus
try Of today was launched in des-
peration when in 1901! the boil
weevil destroyed a large part of
the. states chief crop, cotton. j. S.
(Bully) Moore, head of the A & M
(now Mississippi State) College
Dairy Department, tells Of the be-
ginning of the industry in the
State. Moore was called upon by
bankers, lawyers, merchants and
farmers to suggest a remedy to
the farmers economic plight, caus-
ed by the damage to the cotton
crop by the boil weevil. Moore adj
vised the bankers, who had al
ready lent comparatively large a.
mounts to the farmers on their
cotton crops, to add sufficient
funds to enable the farmers to buy
few dairy cows to tide them
over" the economic crisis. So sue
cessful did the experiment become,
that today dairying ranks among
the top sources of wealth of the
State.

Cleveland will be the site for a

is to be the largest ever projected
for Mississippi, and will cost 500
million to complete. The plant will
be located approximately four
miles from Cleveland, will be of the
modern outdoor type similar in de-

consist of two generating units
having capacity of 100000 kilo-

generating units or boilers will be
equivalent in height to a ten-story

New York - A shabbily dress
ed old man was found dead of a
heart attack on a Brooklyn curb,
his head propped against the rear
wheel of new auto. Papers in his
pocket showed he was Charles
Hoffman, rs, and that the car was
his.
Police went to his S7-a-week
furnished room.
There they found about 100000
worth of grade A stocks, some
cigarett 'makings' and ledger
showing every penny the man had
spent since 1917. Bank books show
ed big deposits.
Papers in the room showed Hoff-
man drew an old age pension.
His landlady said Hoffman, who
had lived in the house for about
eight years, told her his wife died
many years ago and left him a
large amount of money.
A newspaper clipping told that
an uncle, Charles Ferdinand Hoff-
man, died in 1909 in a S4-a-week
Brooklyn furnished room. and left
