Basra but couldn't get permis-
sion.
Jean, who says she was once
sold on an Arab slave market,
was candidate for deportation
after a British court imposed
the jail sentence. But legal au-
thoritieS said today's wedding
offers a sure road to British
citizenship.
She spoke her responses in
broken English. A dazzling white
gown set off her olive skin.
The vicar, the Rev. Albert
Simpson, told the congregation
of so at the ceremony it was
quite a normal wedding. Jean
is baptized Christian. he said.
The wedding over, Jean flung
her arms around her husbands
neck. With tears in her big
brown eyes she whispered:
"Tommee darling, We'll never
be separated again."

Capt. Preston was questioned

Capt. Dean told of having his

Warren Not MIR. X
Wagner Declares
BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Oct. 31.-May-
oral Candidate Robert F. Wag-
ner jr.. says he does not have
Chief Justice Earl Warren in
mind when he refers to a "Mr.
X'-a national figure who sup
posedly urged parole for labor
extortioniSt joey Fay.
Concerning speculation that
Attorney General BroWnell might
be Mr.. Wagner's "Mr. x" the
Democratic mayoral candidate
says:
II don't know. Maybe he is.
I don't know"
These were Mr.. Wagner's
comments yesterday when he
and other candidates were ques-
toned by newsmen at a con-
vention of the New York City
Federation of Women's Clubs.
Chief Justice Warren and Mr..
BroWnell are among several men,
toned since Mr.. Wagner said
the pleaders for a parole for
Fay include a close associate
of Gov. Thomas E. Dewey of
New York. This associate, Mr..
Wagner added, is lone of the
most important men in the
United States-a national figure
whose every word and action
carry tremendous weig t
throughout the country"
Gov. Dewey and the State
Parole Board have emphatically
denied there is such person as

The YOunq
And Cav
GWU Players
Open Season
With Comedy

Jean Kerr's dramatization OF
"Our Hearts Were Young and
Gay" opens the seasons program
of five productions at George
Washington University.
The adaptation of Cornelia
Otis SINNERS and Emily Kim
brough's youthful misadventures
is a comedy of a size and flavor
nicely suited to curtain-raising
purposes. AS were it's heroines
at the time, it is a giddy tale
which Director William Callahan
has wisely concluded should be
played giddily.
His cast, headed by Ann Will
liams and Pat Costello, performs
it as an adolescent romp which
is inescapably the flavor of both
the original and Mrs. Kerr's
adaptation. If it strikes today'S
sophisticated young as over
wrought, the Misses Skinner and
Kimbrough at least are left with
the defense that their days were
more innocent.
The specific area of life COW
cred in Our Hearts Were Young
and Gay" is an unchaperoned
voyage the heroines took to
Paris at the age of 10. Freed Of
parental and school fetters and
in the grip of a ferociouS ro-
manticisn, the girls journey is
one that left not only themselves
but every one with whom they
came into contact permanently
marked.
Director Callahan has not
been completely able to restrain
his exuberant performers but he
has got reasonable caricatures
from the Misses Williams and
Costello and, among the males,
from Orville French, Keith Ken
topp and Michael Foley. The
latter two play the males to
whom the heroineS attach them
selves with such inspired ardor.

German Reds Report
Smashing U. Sled
Espionage Groups
BY the Associated Press

BERLIN, Oct. 31.-The East
German Communist government
claimed today that large espio-
mage, sabotage and terror groups
operating under United States
guidance in the Soviet zone have
been wrecked within the last few
days.
Arrests were made in East
Berlin, at Halle, Cottbus, Pots
dam and some other places. the
Ministry of the Interior said in
communique. 1t claimed also
that radio transmitters of Amer
lean origin, weapons and secret
instructions" have been conf1s-
Gated.
Described as Secret Agents.
The arrested persons, whose
number was not revealed, were
described as agents of the Amer
lean and the West German Se-
cret service. The East German
ministry asserted they received
their orders out of West Ger
many and West Berlin from
the same people who prepared
and staged the Fascist putSch Of
June IT,"
In the past six weeks East
German courts have imposed two
death and eight life imprison-
ment sentences on defendants
tried on similar charges. Twenty
others were sent to prison for a
total of 205 years.
-Four East Germans were con-
victed today as economic spies"
and sentenced to prison terms
ranging from S to IA years.
Four Found Guilty.
The official East German news
agency Adm said the Halle dis
trict court found the four guilty
of obtaining the names Of West

trade ties with the Soviet zone
and giving the information to
the West Berlin Free JuristS
Committee.
All defendants also were found
guilty of participating in the
workers revolt of June II.
The main defendant, H. Glade.

flexible Agenda
Proposed in Talks
AssaiIed by Reds
BY the Assoe,oted Press

PANMUNJOM, Oct. 81
American Ambassador Arthur
H. Dean today proposed "fiex-
ible" agenda to speed up talks
for arranging a Korean peace
conference but the Communists
Immediately rejected it as
"sleight of hand"
The diplomats debated an hour
and three minutes, got nowhere
fol. the sixth straight day, and
called it quits until Monday.
Mr.. Dean told newsmen he
was not depressed over the lack
of headway in his week of talks
with the Communists to set up
the Korean peace parley.
He said he still feels the Reds
want the conference and sit is
not surprising that it has taken
us some time to get shaken down
on a working basis"
Easy Matters Up First.
Mr.. Dean proposed a flexible
or unnumbered agenda," under
which the negotiators could skip
around among various problems
that must be settled before the
political conference can convene.
The American ENJOYS plan
would allow the diplomats to
sidestep tough issues, settle easy
matters. and then come back to
those still unsolved.
Mr.. Dean is speaking for the
United States, South Korea and
the Is other United Nations
which put troops on the battle
field in Korea. He has urged
the Reds all week to talk first
on the matter of fixing a time
and place for the conference.
But the Communists have
countered with demands that the
delegates first decide who should
attend the conference. The u. N.
Assembly has decreed that only
the belligerents may attend plus
Russia, if she is invited by the
Communists to sit with them.
The Reds want to invite Russia
as a neutral in addition to such
Asian neutrals as India, Pakis-
tan, Burma and 1ndoneSia.
Decisive Week Ahead.
The week ahead may be de-
cisive in these preliminary talks
for the political conference.
Mr.. Dean, when he was sent
to Korea by Secretary of State
Dulles to arrange for the par
ley, said he would allow about
10 days to two weeks to see ii
the Communists sincerely want
to make progress toward setting
up the conference.
If the Reds show signs of
willingness to reach an agree
ment the envoy undoubtedly will
stay at Panmunjom. Otherwise.
observers here said, the Dean
mission might figure it is not
accomplishing anything and fly
back to Washington. The U. N.
in New York still has the politi-
cal conference on its agenda.
In Seoul South Korea's For
elgn Minister Pyun Yung Tai
said his government opposes In
dian participation in the politi-
cal conference.
His statement followed re-
ports from the United States
that India might attend the con-
ferences as an observer to re-
port on the prisoners of war
situation.

There is a larger than usual
array of talent at large on the

investigating.

pulchritude is on skates, the
