Soviet relations. There were
some differing views expressed,
they added. but the differences
were slight.
Today, informed diplomats
gave the following, somewhat
fuller account:
Mr.. Bidault, designated by Mr..
Laniel to speak for him, devoted
his time to a documented anal
ysis of Russian internal prob
lens, particularly the Kremlin's
current efforts to boost agricul-
tural production and produce
more consumer goods. The i'm
plication was that the Malenkov
government is more largely occu-
pied than it's predecessor with
internal difficulties.
Churchill Gives Views.
Mr.. Churchill, asked by Gen.
Eisenhower to speak next, said
he thought the West must re-
main alert and strong and not
lower its guard. He expressed
the view. however. that some
basic changes have occurred in
Russia since Stalin'S death and
the new rulers have many in
ternal problems.
Mr.. Churchill added that the
Western powers should seek
every opportunity to develop
more contacts with Soviet Pre-
mier Georgi Malenkov and other
Russian leaders at all levels in
order to make the most of what
he evidently regards as a still
potentially hopeful situation.
Gen. Eisenhower took the line
in his comments that there has
been no change in the basic Rus
sian aim of world conquest de-
spite the changes in Kremlin
personalities. He saw the pos
sibility of switches in Soviet
tactics but obviously felt a very
firm line was necessary in the
Vests relations with the Rus
slams.
The official spokesman said
the question of a top-level meet
ing with Mr.. Malenkov was not
raised. Mr.. Churchill has re-
peatedly said he thought such
a session could be productive.
Would Discuss Specific Issues.
Gen. Eisenhower's view, how
ever, is that the negotiations
with the Russians should be on
specific issues-such as the pro-
posed foreign ministers confer
ence-and that no good purpose
would be served by rushing into
top-level talks without concrete
evidence of Soviet good faith
Mr.. Dulles, Mr.. Eden and Mr..
Bidault also repeatedly agreed on
new approach to the problem
of disputed Trieste aimed at get
ting Yugoslavia and Italy into a
f1ve-power conference on the
issue.

day eased a two-year reforma-
tory sentence for Armand Cor

rection of Judge Smith, next
week will begin reviewing his tes-

Ex-President Hoover
Tells House Probers
OF Baltic Moves
By the Associoted Pres.

NEW YORK, Dec. 5.-Repre-
sentative Kersten, Republican. of
wisconsin said today his House
Baltic Committee may soon be
IN position to ask the Govern
ment to demand that Russia quit
Lithuanian, Latvia and Estonia.
Mr.. kerSten made the COM
ment to newsmen as the COM
mlttee, probing Soviet occupa-
ton of the Baltic states, sat
down to hear former President
Hoover describe how the area
achieved independence after
World War I.
Mr.. Kersten said:
1T appears that the evidence
developed in these hearings will
put our Government in a posi-
lton to tell the Soviet Union to
get out of the Baltic countries
that they have not the slightest
legal or any other kind of right
1or their occupation"
Mr.. Hoover recalled that the
three states declared their indie
pendence from Russia after
woodrow Wilson proclaimed the
doctrine of self-determination.
He said they stood off the
communists with great difficulty
and was directed by the allied
governments to aid their re-
Sistance."
The former President said the
American Navy occupied the
Baltic ports at his request.
The presence of the American
Maryland subsequently the
British Navy-had moral effect
in bringing about their inde-
pendence," he said.
Yesterday the committee heard
a former Lithuanian diplomat,
AntanaS Trimakas, say he be-
lieves the Russians already have
lists of persons to be deported
or purged if the United States
should ever be occupied by
Communists.
Mr.. Trimakas, now chairman
of the economics department
at New Jerseys Seton Hall
University. said the Soviets pre-
pared such lists for Lithuania
before occupying it in 1910.

The Rev. Braun said the people
of Russia want to live in free
dom. He added:
THE Kremlin has abolished
the police-thats too capitalistic.
Now it is the militia. They have
abolished the jails-now they are
houses of detention. They nave
abolished capital punishment -
that was too capitalistic. Now it
is 10 bullets at dawn"
Another speaker last night was

Delinquency Probers
Appear in Conflict
On Denver Hearinu

rams OF senator LANCER, he
publican, of North Dakota to
hold Juvenile delinquency hear
ings in Denver appeared in con-
f1ict today with those of Chair
man Hendrickson of the Judici-
airy Subcommittee making Ma
tion-wide study of the problem.
Senator LANCER, chairman of
the full Judiciary Committee,
said Senators going to Denver
next Saturday to look into a jury
tampering case also plan to hold
hearings there on juvenile de-
linquency.
Hearing Not Contemplated.
A spokesman for Senator Hen
erickson, Republican, of New
Jersey said, however, that the
subcommittee chairman did not
contemplate hearings for the
subcommittee in Denver, so far
as he was concerned.
Senator Hendrickson's spokes-
man cited a busy schedule of
hearings already being worked on
by the staff, heavy personal COM
mitmentS of the Senator and a
limited budget. District hear
ings on juvenile delinquency
open December IA.
Senator Langer's Office said
that the Denver hearings were
sheduled from Saturday through
the following Monday. The Sena-
tor had told reporters he ex-
pected testimony in the jury
tampering case to take oriy half
a day or so.
Plans Confused.
Senator LANCER had expected
that Senator Hendrickson and
Senator Kefauver, Democrat, of
Tennessee, a subcommittee
member, would go to Denver
with him.
At issue in the jury -tampering
case is how much help the Fed
eral Bureau of Investigation
provided in obtaining convic-
tions of Eugene and Clyde
Smalldone. alleged gambling
czars in the Denver area, and
four other persons.
The Justice Department said
this week the FBI played a
major role in obtaining the con-
victions, but Federal Judge
Willis w. Ritter said from the
bench last month that the de-
partment had refused to give
United States District Attorney
Charles Vigil FBI help in the
case.

There are two basic situations
where your best bet is to pass.
The first is well-known and dis
/ gusting situation which seems to
occur on about 90 per cent of the
j hands dealt. I refer to the case
where it is clear that the oppo-
nents have most of the high cards.
This situation is at times aggra-
waited by the fact your partner has
I passed and you are vulnerable,
while the opponents are not.

The other passing situation is a
little more pleasant to contem-
plate. Here we leave the field of
enforced caution and enter the
field of strategy. misdirection, am
! bush and, of course. humanics.
? Take today'S hand for example.
. Mr.. Dale was loaded. He had
plenty in hi~h cards for one-no-
. trump opening. After Miss Brash
ooened the bidding on his right,
he had plenty for takeout dou-
BILE. But he passed. And that was
his best action.
7 In fact, the situation was just
sahout perfect for trap. First, the
sopponents were vulnerable and
Mr.. Dale was not. Next, the open
.er was a known overbidder, who
might easily get too high if not
warned of danger Then there was
the fact Mr. Dale's strongest hold
ing was in the principal suit OF
the opener.
There was some risk, of course,
that Miss Brash and her partner
would drop the bidding before they
got into trouble, and in spot
where they would not be playing
doubled Gas, for example, II Mr..
Abel had passed out Miss Brash's
three-diamond bid.
! But that chance was more than
offset by the fact Mr.. Dale's side
could not make anything of i'm
portance even if he did come into
the bidding.
So, Mr.. Dale passed until his
opponents reached game and then
started doubling. Miss Brash
played the hand as we'll as she
could and still went down 500
points. The moral, then is to
pass when your principal strength
lies in a suit or suits bid by the
enemy.

Payless employees Of the Dis

have their first solid hope of get
ting back pay.
The third supplemental ap-
preparation bill, which carries
funds for the ~ employees, was
to be considered this afternoon
by House and Senate conferees.
The workers have not been paid
since March "a.
The measure carries SIT, 900 for
this purpose. This item is not
in controversy between House
and Senate versions.
District funds approved by the
House total $1,271,648, but the
Senate increased them to $1,351,- =
933. The measure also carries
funds for several agencies of the
Federal Government.
When House Senate conferees
agree on a compromise bill,
the measure is expected to be
passed quickly by Congress and
sent to the White House. This
cannot be until next week, since
the Senate has recessed until
Monday.
