Pep Beaien Third Time by SaddIer
By the Associated Press

Harlem's Sandy Saddler still is the featherweight champion of the world. The lean slasher beat Willie Pep for the third time in their four title bouts last night in the New York Polo Grounds when Wee Willie failed to answer the bell for the 10th round. It's officially a ninth round T-K-O.
 Hartford Willie did not come out for the 10th because of a badly cut right eye which Pep said pained him.

Rate for Bunting in National League Now Ceiling 10 Be Close
By the Associated Press

The desperate Brooklyn Dodgers, who have seen their once-mighty 13l5 game National League lead dwindle to just one game, go into todays big test against Boston's Braves with Preacher Roe (22-2l- their stopper-on the mound.
 The New York Giants. pantine down the Brooks backs in the mad chase for the flag after winning 5 of their last 42 outings, will spend the day watching and waiting. They don't get back into action until Sat- urday against Boston.
 Brooks Advantage
 Actually, the Brooks are in an advantageous position and the Giants will have to get the breaks to win the bunting. If the Giants win both their two games against the Braves. Charlie Dressen's opera tives then will have to win three of their four remaining contests,
 Should the Giants falter once, Brooklyn will need only two tri- umphs.
 Dressen is taking no chances on his pitching rotation.
 "It's got to be Roe" he said, for we've got to keep on winning. I'm not expecting anybody to help us by beating the Giants. We've got to help ourselves
 Yesterdays 15-5 conquest of the Braves did a lot for the Dodgers, even though the Giants came right back at night and polished off the Philadelphia Phillies with equal emphasis, 10-1. For one thing it indicated the Brooks have not cracked up completely after their double defeat by the Braves Tues day night.
 Race in American
 In the American League, the New York Yankees made no progress in their efforts to sew up the flag. They were completely intellectual against the slants of little Bobby Shantz and dropped a Al decision to the Philadelphia As.
 So the combination still is two for the Yanks-two triumphs or two defeats for the Cleveland Indians, who were idle yesterday. The Tanks have five games left to play and the Indians only two. The Tribe winds up the seasons business with single games at home against the Detroit Tigers Saturday and Sun day. The Tanks play all five of theirs against the Boston Red Sox.
 With their 7-3 loss at the hands of the Washington Senators last night, the Beantowners can't pos sibly win the pennant.
 Giants Come Through
 The Giants came through nobii' last night behind Larry Jansen, who racked up his 21st victory.
 Jansen's task was made easy when his mates presented him with four runs in the first inning, then three more in the third.
 The Tanks played acceptabiy against the As, who have won P of their last 31 games. But these days, you have to do better than be ac- ceptable against Philadelphia.
 Shantz held the New Workers te six hits, while his mates loosed a barrage. One of the three As home runs was tremendous belt by Gus Zernial, 430 feet to the left field | bleachers.
 Sid Hudson and Tom Ferrick com bined to hold the Red Sox to six hits.
 In the only other major league game, the St. Louis Browns hung up 7-1 conquest over the Detroit Tigers.

Doris FIeeson:

A Washington lecturer who
touches base in the South and
East finds that the common de-
nominator of Gen. MacArthur's
appeal is that he offers a clear
cut solution to the Korean war.
Questions from unusually at
tentive audiences show that
President Truman has not put
across his story of why the lin
tied war in Korea also serves
and should not be replaced by
limited war with Red China.
Americans are calling the Ko-
rean affair a war, too, and its
heavy casualty lists are begin
ming to make themselves felt.
If it is true that Gen. Mac
Arthur forced his recall by stud
led defiance Of his commander
in-chief, as the White House
believes, then he is better at
timing than the supposedly
masterful politician, Mr.. Tru-
man.
Little interest is expressed in
q political future for the gen.
eral; up to now at least he is
viewed as a military expert who
was on the ground but whose
advice was not taken.
There seems little disposition
to regard him as muZzled
martyr but there is also very
little concern over the constitu-
tional issue raised by the Presi-
dent which seems to Mr.. Tru-

Now the truth is there was
no meeting Of the Joint Chiefs
Of Staff with the President to
discuss the dismissal of Gen.
Macarthur or to discuss the
taking Of any action with ref
erence to his command.
There is no official record"
therefore, and even no unoffi-
cial record Of any action"
whatsoever taken by the Joint
Chiefs of Staff in this matter
either In conference with the
President or anywhere else.
The Democratic Nations a ]
Committee which released its
statement on April 27 had
eight days in which to verify
the truth or falsity of the above.
Attention was called in these
dispatches on April % to the
untruth and the same dispatch

Congress.
This correspondent finds that
he was slightly in error in his
April % dispatch even in saying
that there was an informal
meeting between the President
and the Joint Chiefs of Staff at
which replacement of Gen. Mac
Arthur was discussed. No meet
ing Of any kind with the Presi-
dent occurred.
What happened was that each
member of the Joint Chiefs was
asked for a personal opinion
but not by the President-and

command was logical some time.

made that the change be brought

Constantine Brown:
Russia Engineers Doom of Iran
Resignation Of Pro-Western Prime Minister Called
The Beginning Of the End of Country1s Freedom

The resignation of Trans
Western minded Prime Minister
Hussein Ala is regarded in Wash
ington as the beginning Of the
end Of that country's freedom.
Russia. its next-door neigh
Dor, has skillfully engineered
the doom Of that country. The
West, and particularly the
United States and Great Britain,
have abetted that move by an
unbelievably ort-sighted pol
icy.
Our Government has been
painfully slow in providing the
economic and military assistance
promised the Iranian govern
ment. Whether this mistake
was caused by the Incidence Of
those who should have seen the
handwriting on the wall or by
other things Is not very import
ant. The fact is that for two
years the Iranian government
has been pleading for the help
which had been promised. It
was only last November that an
insufficient quantity of the
pledged military and economic
assistance started moving at
Snail'S pace toward the Persian
Gulf.
The British, who had q con-
trolling voice In exploitation of
the Southern Iranian oil wealth,
were reluctant to accept the ex-
tensive demands of the Iranian
nationalists demands which
have been grimly underscored
by the assassination of Premier
Ali Razmara, who was person.
ally opposed to the nationaliza-
ton of Trans oil.
Gen. Razmara and Mr.. Ala
warned the British that a more
liberal policy involved not only
a financial matter, but would
counteract growing Soviet
propaganda among the masses.
With blindness which has
characterized Britain,s overall
foreign policy in the last 6
years. the London government
was slow to heed the pressing
requests of the top Iranian gov
ernment officials. The Labor
government espoused Socialism
at home. but denied the Middle
Eastern countries, where they
had large investments, the right
to have it.
The Russians were quick to
take advantage Of the situation.
The Kremlin had attempted to
make Iran into a satellite in
1916. 1t failed because of the
timely intervention Of the
United Nations, strongly backed
by Washington. The Russians
used the strong arm. They stir

the government solemnly Of the
dire consequences of such uni
lateral action Of the Iranian
parliament. Mr.. Ala resigned.
The question of Iran does not
affect British economic interests
alone. 1t affects the entire de-
fense of Europe. The armed
forces of the North Atlantic
Treaty Organization depend on
oil supplies from the Persian
Gulf. One of the weaknesses
in the Soviet armor. allegedly
was the lack of sufficient oil.
If Iran, as is feared now, falls
behind the Iron Curtain, the
Kremlin will have at it's dis
posal large quantities of oil
from the well-developed fields
and refineries of southern Iran
and, what is even more impor-
tant. will deny the West these
vital supplies.
Moreover, the Russian coup
in Iran also will seriously af-
feet the Arab nations which bor-
der that country. There already
is a good deal Of restlessness in
Iraq, the second most impor-
tant Middle Eastern oil center.

Iran which may have even more
significance than the loss of

man so important. In this re-
spect the parallel seems to be
the third-term issue. The poll
ticians clamor and the con-
stitutional experts are writing
letters to the editor, but the
public is not excited either
way.
These reactions put it up to
the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
Should there be a split in their
ranks or should any important
support be forthcoming for
Gen. Macarthur from them,
Mr.. Truman will have very hard
going.
He cannot do much to help
himself; his attitudes in the
RFC scandal and the Kefauver
inquiry have multiplied the Nc
Carthy damage. Secretary of
State Acheson still is q political
liability. The fact is that the
administration right now lacks
spokesmen with popular appeal

Moscow to back down.
Taking advantage of the in
dolence of the United States
and the lack of understanding
of the British toward Trans
problems, the Russians worked
quietly and successfully. They
exploited the growing restless
ness in the country. caused by
bad economic conditions.
The Iranian Parliament, while
free of Communists, was fired
with a new nationalist feeling
which had been carefully de-
veloped by the Soviet embassy
at Teheran. The oil national
ization act was passed and the
British took offense. Moscow
succeeded in creating a deep
rift between the Iranian people
and the Western Capitalists"
Mr.. Ala attempted to bridge
that gap by counSelling the Brit
ish government to exercise a
little more moderation and a
better understanding of the new
conditions in this country. His
pleas received little attention.
He urged that the nationalist
tion act be accepted without
protest and that readjustments,
which would be beneficial to
both countries, be left to the
future.
The British refused and the
