President elect Dwight D. Essen
hover is expected by sources here
to make quick and sweeping
changes in the United States dele
cation to the United Nations soon
after he takes office Jan. 20.
American sources familiar with
the law said that Eisenhower, af-
ter he is inaugurated, will have
the authority to remove all the
American delegates to the 7 tn
General Assembly if they Dc not
tender designations.
All of them would have COM
pleted their terms had the Assem-
bly, held to its original schedule,
which called for adjournment by
Dec. 20. But with action still to
be taken on most items of bust
ness, the Assembly's steering COM
mittee was expected to- order
Christmas recess and resumption
OF the session in February, after
the inauguration.

wishes to enter private business.
The 56-year-old diplomat has
been the top ranking American
official in West Germany since

succeed John j. McCloy.
His job has been much the
same as that of ambassador, al
though he does not hold that title
because the German peace con-
tract has not yet gone into force.
When the peace contract gees
into effect, the high commissioner
post will be ended.

Charge 1t Delayed
Anti-Red Action

WASHINGTON, (P- A Con-
gressional inquiry was under way
Thursday into alleged efforts by
the State md Justice Depart
mentS to delay or tone down a
federal grand jury charge of
Communism in the United Ma
tons.
The investigation was launched
by House Judiciary subcom-
mitee less than "a hours after
juror Max Zimmerman accused
the government agencies of team
ing up to interfere with its sharp
ly-worded presentment.
Chairman Chelf D-Ky) and
Rep. Heating R-NY) said "ser-
ious charges of delay, interior
ence and hampering" had been
leveled against the Justice and
State Departments.
obligations indicate that, two
months ago, a certain faction
within the Justice Department
attempted to have the grand jury
drop its inquiry into Communist
activities in the United Nations"
the lawmakers announced, add
ing:
These charges will be thor
oughly and completely explored
by the subcommittee staff and
investigation is presently under
way, both in New York and in
Washington, to determine the full
facts"
The State Department denied
it had anything to do with any
such attempts.
The international monetary fund,
meanwhile, disclosed that its sec
rotary has been fired after re-
fusing to tell a Senate internal
security subcommittee whether he
was ever Communist or war
time spy.
The secretary, Frank Coe, said
at his Arlington, Va, home that
he did not "care to comment" He
denied that he was a Communist
in sworn testimony before the
House Un = American Activities
Committee in 1948.

1852, RED CROSS
DRIVE UNDERWAY
IN DARE COUNTY
Wallace McCown, Chairman,
Urges Full Support From
All Parts of County

Mrs. Louise Meekins, Chairman
of the Dare County Chapter Amer
lean Red Cross, announced today
that the Dare County Drive for
funds is underway. The quota set
for our drive is $651.
Last year the drive was a great
success and over-subscribed its
quota. This year the Red Cross
needs are greater than before be-
cause of the large number of dis
aster areas assisted during the
past year. The fire in Manteo,
which made homeless five families,
was one of many instances where
the Red Cross came to the assis-
tance of American families. With
continued war in Korea, the Red
Cross Overseas services are even
more in demand.
Wallace McCown, 1851 Fund
Chairman, has been selected to
head the 1862 drive, and hopes for
the continued support of this
cause, to which the people of Dare
County so generously contributed
last year. McCown said, at is my
hope that the people of the many
communities in our county will re-
spond generously, and enable us
to make the 1852 Red Cross Drive
a successful one. Because of the
geographic location of our many
communities, it is essential that
every citizen give his full support
to the local Chairmen. Because of
that individual support, our 1851
Drive was successful; let US con-
tinue that countrywide interest so
that in 1852 Dare County will
again over-subscribe its quota.
Give and give generously to your
1852 Red Cross Campaign"
The following persons have been
asked to lead their community
drives for this year: Manteo; Rev.
A. V. Napier; Manteo colored, Mrs.
Lonnie Gray; Waves, Mrs. Nellie
Farrow; Mashoes, Mrs. Hattie
Mann; Collington, Mrs. Lewis
Meekins; Rodanthe, Mrs. Charles
