Thanks 10 Danish People
By the Asseeiafed Press


COPENHAGEN, Jan. 17.-Mrs.
Eugene Anderson thanked the
Danish people today for "the
affection and understanding
which have made my often diff
ficult job as American Ambassa-
dor a rich and joyful experience. :"
Receiving reporters at her
palatial residence north Of

been privileged to serve as the
top United States representative
here during three of the most
important years in Danish and
world history.
"Denmark's ever closer adher-
ence to the Atlantic pact during
those three years has been SYM
bolic of the strengthening of the
free world" she said.
Mrs. Anderson will give up her
Job formally Monday and leave
for Austria and Britain. OF her
future plans, she would only say:
II definitely do not intend to
run for elective office. AS a

Nedrs Decision in Brazil
By the Associated Press

RIO DE JANEIRO, Jan. IT.
A bill prohibiting the dispatch
of Brazilian troops abroad with
out congressional approval will
be up for debate Monday in the
Chamber of Deputies.
The bill, introduced as a check
on the military, has attracted
support from CommuniStic ele-
ments which oppose the send
ing of troops to Korea.
Communist SympathizerS also
are lined up against ratification
of military-aid pact with the
United States which may be
considered at the present ex-

afoot and have hidden arms in
the interior and in Bolivia, have
alarmed some deputies.

Eisenhower Gets
Label as Native
Of Frontier Fence
BY the Associefed Press

Geographically speaking, Pres
ident-elect Eisenhower qualities
as a Gross Timbers" man.
The National Geographic So
ciety pinned that identif1ca-
ton on him yesterday in noting
that he was born October IA,
1890, at Denison, Tex.
South across the Red River
from the old Oklahoma Indian
Territory, Denlson stood midway
along a strange north-south strip
of tangled oak forests known as
the Gross Timbers."
This long natural hedge be-
tween the settled regions Of the
United States and the vast ocean
of prairie to the west formed one
of the best known landmarks in
the Southwest.
The Gross Timbers" stood out
like a physical meridian. and for
60 years was a dividing line be-
tween the lands of the white man
and those of the Plains Indians.
Much of the Gross Timbers"
has disappeared today under AK
and plow.
But the society noted that only
10 years before Mr.. Eisenhower
was born, the name meant the
"oak fence on the Southwest
frontier"

Transport Group Chiefs
Hit Short Haul Clause
By the Associated Press

CHICAGO. Jan. 17.-Directors
of the Transportation Associa-
ton of America today referred
the controversial long and =
Short-haul clause back to re-
gional groups "for further study"
before recommending any action
to Congress.
They did, though, condemn
the clause as "outmoded and
burdensome."
A spokesman for the associa-
ton said the directors had unan-
imously approved most Of the
program presented to the TAA
by the associations policy ad-
ministration board, except for
the long-and-sh -short-haul clause
and another clause on exemption
OF certain tarm prOQuctS.
Under section 4 Of the ICC
act 0ong-and-short-hauD wa
ter and rail lines cannot charge
more for hauling a shipment
over short distance than for
carrying the same shipment
over a longer distance over the
same route. For example, a
railroad must not charge more
for carrying a cargo from Chi
cago to Spokane than it does for
carrying the same cargo to
Seattle, farther along the line.
The directors approved a pro-
posal that the Government
should dissolve the Inland Wa

The revolutionary Bolivian gov

In an order of the day the

Senator Johnston, Democrat,
of South Carolina, said the con-
flrmation of Mr.. Wilson would
violate the law as long as the
nominee held on to his stock
and retirement rights. The
South Carolina Senator charged
that many of the President
elects appointees are heads of
big business.
This, in my opinion, is only
a beginning of what is in Store
for the small businessman"
said Senator Johnston.
Other Democratic Senators
who want to see top-level busi-
ness leaders enter the Govern
ment, are reluctant to support
MI. Wilson unless he disposes of
his stock because they say a
number of other men who have
held Defense Department posts
in recent years had to get rid of
their stock holdings before TAX
ing Office.
The section of the United
States code which has tied up
the Wilson appointment reads
as follows:
whoever, being an officer,
agent or member of, or directly
OF indirectly interested in the
pecuniary profits or contracts of
any corporation, joint-stock COM
pany, or association, or any firm
or partnership, or other business
entity. is employed or acts as an
officer or agent of the United
States for the transaction of
business with such business en-
tity, shall be fined not more than
$4,000 or imprisoned not more
than two years. or both"
Vice President-elect Nixon, who
conferred with Senator Taft yes
terday. said the question of how
the law should be interpreted is
under consideration, but he added
that "the matter goes beyond
that. because some Senators, both
on the Democratic and Republi-
can sides. are concerned about
the practice rather than the le-
gal question"
In the case of the Secretary
of the Treasury, there is a
special law, which spells out in
even greater detail steps which
must be taken to separate the
Secretary from activity in the
business world. An informed Sem
ate source predicted last night.
however, no difficulty would de-
velop over Mr.. Humphreys NOM

Dulles Due 10 Talk
With Kennan About
Opposition 10 Policy
BY John M. Hiehtower
Press Stoff Corresponden

John Foster Dulles. incoming
Secretary of State. is expected
to confer this week with Am
bassador George F. Kennan on
the latter's apparent opposition
to a new Dulles policy for deal
ing with Soviet Communism.
Mr.. Kennan, who has been
one of the Governments top
advisers on Russian matters dur
ing the postwar years. now holds
the title of Ambassador to Mos
COW but the Kremlin has barred
him from Russia.
AS career diplomat he will
come up for reassignment in the
new Eisenhower administration.
Before deciding what his status
should be Mr.. Dulles, it is un-
derStood, wants to determine
whether a speech Mr.. Kennan
made Friday night indicates in
compatibility with the new ad-
ministration.
Dulles Expects Loyalty.
President elect Eisenhower
and Mr.. Dulles obviously expect
members of the Foreign Service
to be loyal to policies which
will be laid down by the new
President. Persons familiar with
Mr.. Dulles attitude said yester-
day there will be no official place
in Washington or elsewhere for
anyone who does not have that
loyalty.
Mr.. Dulles, testifying before
the Senate Foreign Relations
Committee Thursday, advocated
a policy of liberation" of Soviet
satellite countries. He expressed
confidence that a program for
use of moral and political pres
Sures to that end can be worked
out.
In a speech in Scranton, Pa,
Friday night, Mr.. keenan, ex-
pressed confidence in the COM
petitive power of freedom in
the struggle of political ideas"
and said he thought the arts
Of totalitarian despotism will
prove in the end to be self-de-
structive."
But I would be extremely
careful" he said. "of doing any,
thing at the governmental level
that purports to affect directly
the governmental system in
another country, no matter what
the provocation may seem"
Originated Containment.
He added that such action
would be inconsistent with
Americas international obliga-
tions, it's membership in the
United Nations, and the main
tenance of diplomatic relations
with another country. More
over. he said. it is filled with
possibilities for misunderstand-
Ing and bitterness" and could
involve the United States in
"heavy responsibilities"
Mr.. Kennan was the. origina-
tor of the policy Of contain
ment" of Soviet power which
was adopted by the Truman ad-
ministration. The central idea
of this policy has been to or
ganize and strengthen the free
world to prevent expansion of
Soviet control into new areas.
Mr.. Dulles assailed this policy
during the presidential cam
paign as inadequate and called
for a more dynamic policy on
the part of free nations to put
the Soviet Union on the defen-
sive.
1t has been reported that Mr..
Kennan was slated to become
American Ambassador to Egypt
under the new administration.
He has about a year to go in
