Answer: If your dog was born
deaf the chances are her pup
pies would also be born deaf.
Hereditary deafness is passed

Writer Calls for Legislation
Against Poisoning Dogs

to do, and one of the most diff
cult things to prove.
In various parts of the United
States there are epidemics of it
from time to time. I recall sew
eral of these. Countless harm
less dogs have died in agony
from various forms of poison or
from ground glass. Practically
no convictions resulted. The
poisoners have gone scotfree.
One or two of them have even
collected damages for defama-
tion of character, ETC., from
their their accusers.
All hail to California! May its
example be followed by many
more States.
When your dog is shedding his
coat (most dogs do it twice a
year, but many shed off and on
all year around), it's a good idea
to brush and comb him daily to
assist him in ridding himself of
the unwanted hair. The more
assistance you give him in this
respect. the faster and better his
subsequent coat will grow.
Grooming the animal also helps
to remove dirt and other foreign
substances often deeply imbed-
ded in the coat. A good daily
brushing is better for your dog
than a daily bath.

A TRIP BY SHIP!
Business or pleasure 80.

Busy executives, who cross the Atlantic
regularly, are among the most enthusi-

find, as you will, that relaxing interlude
aboard ship is more than just means to
an end = it's actually bonus vacation!
You'll really luxuriate in your merciful
freedom from disturbance and you can
take advantage of the welcome break to
make plans and set papers in order, ready
for the busy days ahead. However, you
need never be out of touch with your Of
fee or your family. A call on the ship-to-
shore telephone-or a radiogram handed
to your steward-gets your message back
home just as quickly as on land!

On Second Thought Maybe Beo Is Almost Big No|enkov

merged with the Ministry of Internal
Affairs. now under Beria. Since
early 1941 Malenkov has attempted
to wrest control of this police organ
away from Beria. It is believed to
have been Seesaw battle up until
late in 1852, when Victor S. Abaku-
NOV was quietly removed, presuma-
bly, because of the discovery" Of
the doctors plot. Malenkov's man.
Ignatiev, was showed in as Minister
of State Security. At that time
Beria had the empty sounding title
of deputy chairman of the Council
of Ministers, or deputy premier.
Actually he was in overall charge
of the police system. That is why
he was at first considered "respon-
sible" for the doctors plot. Now.
however. the story is that from
such an eminent height it was not
possible for him to see the political
blindness and gullibility" of his un-
derlings. This is believed to be
merely an explanation, of course.
to cloak Beria's counterattacks. He
apparently has succeeded in dis
crediting Ignatiev, Malenkov's in
terloper in Beria's bailiwick.
Duumvirote Theory
The alternate thesis advanced by
those who see Beria's star in the
ascendancy and Malenkov's in at
least slight decline is that Malen-
kov and Beria may have formed a
duumvirate. That would mean Ma
lenkov realizes that for the time
being he is not strong enough to
rule without Beria's aid. Beria thus
would get carte blanche within his
secret police. Ignatiev and his as
sistant. then. become sacrifices while
Malenkov plays a waiting game. A
period of socialist competition,
with careful probing of the oppo-
nentS' weaknesses. may now be set

How all this will affect the inter-
national situation Is difficult to
guess. Moscow leaders will probably
still strive for a united front to
the outside world. What the West.
and the United States in particular,
does in the next few months will
undoubtedly have more effect than
usual on the Soviet Unions foreign
policy. For instance, any move
toward an Eisenhower meeting with
Malenkov might catch the Kremlin
in an embarrassing position-if the
struggle for power is really on.

true. But all of the strings were not
as yet in his pudgy hands.
. Public criticism and removal Of
Malenkov's protege, Semyon Deniso-
vich Ignatiev, from the all-important
Secretariat of the Central Commit
tee of the Communist Party may
show Malenkov's authority has been
overrated.
. The Soviet press no longer plays
up Malenkov's great achievements
as it did before the March Is session
of the Supreme Soviet-Russia's
rubber stamp parliament-when the
wide-sweeping government reorgan-
ization was confirmed. While this
soft-pedaling might be Malenkov's
idea, it also might indicate that the
press itself is not quite sure who will
succeed in the discriminating match
which may now be on.

pocketbook nerve" The position is
taken that management can do
much to prevent layoffS through
proper scheduling of production, etc.
So far, the union refers only gen.
orally to the type Of plan it will de-
mand. It says that guarantee pay
ments should be integrated with
State unemployment compensation
benefits 80 that employers can re-
duce their liabilities by effectively
working toward improvement of
State laws; that the guarantee
plan should be administered by a
Joint board that trust funds should
be built up to meet abnormal
COSTS" The JAW will make a thor
ough study of the subject before
presenting it's demand formally.
All sides agree that a guarantee
of employment or pay to all wage
earners is a most desirable thing.
The problem has been to find a
workable plan, one in which the
liability would be SO spread as not
to bear too heavily on one en-
ployer. So far the answer has not
been found, except in isolated in
stances.
Whot SteeIworkers Found
The steelworkers' demand Of 1914
led to the most comprehensive
study of the guaranteed annual
wage problem ever made. The late
President Roosevelt initiated the
study through the Advisory Board
of the Office of War Mobilization
and ReconverSion. A staff directed
by Murray w. Latimer, former
chairman of the Railroad Retire
ment Board, enlisted the help Of
Government agencies and a couple
of universities and went into the
problem from every angle. After
three years, Mr.. Latimer produced
a 473-page volume. The report con-
cluded that the guaranteed annual
wage baSically was a good idea, but
that its success depended on univer-
sal adoption by industry. The re-
port said, but not in these words,
that it would be suicidal, financially
speaking. for one employer to I'M
dertake a guarantee program, ex-
cept in unusual cases.
There is far from unanimity
among the experts as to whether
universal application of guaran-
teed wage plan would produce de-
sira'ble results. Even its most ardent
advocates admit that it is no cure

Developments in Moscow during
the past few days leave an unmiS-
taxable odor of charred flesh that
almost inevitably must accompany
any full-scale struggle for power
within the highest echelons of Soviet
hierarchy. Georgi Malenkov'S posi-
ton looks less secure than it did a
few weeks ago.
It is still too early to tell the full
extent Of the current upheavals,
although the latest round seems to
belong to Police Chief Lavrenty P.
Beria.
The outside world may get q
better idea of who is doing what to
whom if the Kremlin stages its GUS
tomary May Day parade. Rank
among the Soviet leaders usually is
indicated by the placement of the
principals on the reviewing stand.
AT least until May l, however. spec
ulation will be rife.
Last January, when the arrest Of
the nine Kremlin doctors was an
nounced by the Stain regime, it
was believed that Beria had suffered
a major defeat. At that time the
tightly controlled Soviet press chided
the past laxness of the security
organs, and it seemed that Beria was
on the skids. Perhaps he would be
out by now If Stain had lived.
But by managing last week to
have these doctors released (plus an
additional six whose arrests were
not previously announced), Beria
struck back hard.
MoIenkov Slipping?
Among the theories being devel-
oped as to what actually is going on
behind the thick Kremlin wall two
are gaining wide support. One is
that Malenkov is losing his grip on
the government and party appara-
tus. The other is that Malenkov has
reluctantly accepted the existing
power distribution which finds Beria
a very close No. 2 man. Observers
are bordering these developments:
. Malenkov's swift take-over may
have been a sign Of weakness instead
Of strength. The rapid reorganiza-
ton of the government and party
apparatus Immediately following
Stalin's death at first glance created
the impression that Malenkov was
strong. In the light of later devel-
opments, however. this rapid reor-
ganization began to take on some of
the aspects Of a coup d'etat. rather
than a long-planned. widely ac-
cepted transition of power. Most of
the important positions were given
to men considered to have been long
standing Malenkov supporters. 1t II

the black man arrived there at the

The outcome of next Wednesdays
election in the Union of South
Africa will be of vital Importance
to all of Africa and of immediate
interest to the entire world. Voting
South Africans, the great majority
of whom are white, are being asked
to indorse a policy of stricter racial
segregation and more white SUI
premacy.
A heavy vote for that policy could
set off racial violence that would
spread across Africa.
The dark continent even now is in
ferment. Native populations de-
mand greater voice in their own
government and more equality with
North Africa, where the British, Bel
gians and Portuguese are the gov
erning classes, the trend is to give
the natives more of what they want.
Most colonial powers, the British in
particular. plan some day to turn
the entire government over to the
natives anyhow and then pull out

But even this trend toward equal

however, less, rather than more,
freedom is being held out to the ma
tiveS.
South Africa's history is diff
ferent from North Africa's. This has

The next big labor
battles likely will be fought over the
issue of the guaranteed annual wage
rather than the question Of an in
crease in the hourly, daily or weekly
rates of pay. The man in overalls

other salaried people, on a yearly
basis.
That labor is about ready to do

shown clearly at the recent conven-
ton of the Go United Automobile
Workers. The 1.3 million-member
organization Of red-headed Walter
P. Reuther often is labor'S pace
maker in winning new demands. The
JAW fixed the guaranteed annual

JAW also has established the prin-

increase, which is supposed to re-
fleet the workers share Of the in

Shift in Emphasis
So now the emphasis in collective
bargaining shifts to employment Sc
curity-the guaranteed annual wage.
Labor had to battle hard and use the
strike weapon freely in order to win
pensions and the union shop. Indi-
cations are the unions will have to
fight even harder to dent the big en-
ployers' resistance to an annual
guarantee of employment or the cash
equivalent thereof. To the employer,
1t raises very real threat of bank
ruptcy; like signing his name to q
blank check. Potentially, it could in
volve an outlay of cash many times
greater than an agreement to pay
pensions to elderly employees Of long
service.

trolled the secret police through
Beria. But with Stalin's death the
second and third ranking officials
under Beria have been relieved of
certain of their former obligations
and loyalties. Their political debts
to other sponsors now come into
play. Many of them were placed
in their jobs by Malenkov. others by
Beria. If these two giants are in
a battle for undisputed control, the
placing of powerful henchmen in
key positions during the present
reorganization period assumes great
Importance. Studying these second
and third levels of Soviet official
dom, in fact, becomes the principal
way foreign observers can guess at
what is going on.
One of the key centers of power
in the Soviet Union has been the

of the secret police system-recently

these crucial areas permits control
of the government and party ma
chinery. Stain controlled all stra-
tegic power centers, therefore he
had absolute authority. AS in other
bureaucracies, control cannot be
held by the chief and his cabinet
Cor Politburo) alone, but must be
supported on the second and third
levels by men loyal to the top dog.
For example, in the police system
of the Soviet Union, Beria's assist
ants in charge Of separate functions
like security, administration of
correctional labor" camps, civil
police, and foreign espionage all
must support the policies laid down
by the chief.
Levels Two and Three
While Stain lived there was no
question who was boss. Stain con-
