Greek Ship Pact
AssaiIed by Member
Of QfMcCarfhy Group

A member Of the Senate In
vestigationS Subcommittee head
ed by Senator Mccarthy, Re
publican, Of Wisconsin, today
spoke out against the actions
Of Senator Mccarthy in obtain
Ing an agreement from Greek
shipping operators to cut off
trade with Red China.
II do not think a congressional
committee should try to take
over the responsibility for ad-
ministrative action that belongs
to the executive branch OF the
Government" said Senator Pot
ter, Republican. Of Michigan.
The leglesS World War II vet
eran, serving his first term in
the Senate, said he had no
knowledge until he read it in
the newspapers of the agree
ment announced over the week
end by Senator Mccarthy that a
group of Greek shipowners OPP
Grating out of New York would
no longer engage in trade with
ebmlnunist-held areas.
Dangers Stressed.
Such an action, he added,
Cbuld disrupt a program" the
executive branch already has
der way. II a congressional
dsnmittee should undertake to
dstain such agreements. Senator
FStter@ said, it would result If
carried to the ultimate conclu-
sion in moving into the. shadow
AREA between what is the execu-
tive and what is the legislative
function.
The Michigan Senator said
the impression seems to have
been given that the Mutual Sc
curity Administration has not
been doing its job in administer
ing and co-ordinating laws and
agreements regarding the ship
ment of strategic materials to
Communist areas.
He suggested this should be
q matter for the Senate Com
merce Committee. of which he
is a member. to look into with
MSA Chief Harold E. Stassen a
possible witness. Mr.. Stassen
told the Mccarthy subcommittee
Monday that it was "undermin-
ing" this country'S foreign policy
in obtaining agreements from
the Greek shipowners on trade
with Communist areas. This
seemed in conflict with the view
expressed in the statement is
sued after the Dulles Mccarthy
meeting.
TObey Issues Statement.
Meanwhile, Chairman Tobey
entered into the discussion by
issuing statement saying his
Senate Commerce Committee
has been working quietly for
several weeks on Illegal trade
with the Soviet bloc. or, as the
Senator said, sixth column ae-
tivitieS."
I'VE have no preconception
about the effectiveness of exist
ing controls" Senator Tobey
added, tand we are therefore
proceeding to examine these
controls in an orderly manner.
IF present controls over this
nefarious trade are not adequate,
or if new controls are needed.
then the Senate Interstate and
Foreign Commerce Committee
will propose further legislation"

'Vishinsky Surprise
On Disarmament
Keeps U. n. Hopeful.
BY the A,soelc,ed Pres,

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y,
April 2.-Rapid-fir moves in the
new Soviet peace offensive gave
United Nations delegates much
to study over today and little
hope for rest as they started a
five-day Easter recess.
The United States and her
Western Allies joined all other
nations outside the Soviet bloc
in probing warily the succession
Of dramatic Red actions Of the
past few days. One observer said
1t looked like a "surprise-a-day
campaign" Delegates wondered
If another Russian peace move
would be made today on another
front.
The latest surprise here came
yesterday when Russia's Andrei
Y. Vishinsky. recently returned
from Moscow talks with the new
regime of Prime Minister Georgi
M. Malenkov, scrappeG for the
first time in seven years his ef-
forts to introduce harsh words
against the West into the formal
record on disarmament.
This was not the most dra-
matte nor, apparently, the most
far-reaching move the Russians
have made recently. But cautious
Western experts tagged it as q
change-perhaps even some soft
ening Of Soviet tactics at the
U. N.
Topmost in the minds OF all
diplomats were the fresh pro-
poSals Of Red China for a solu-
ton of the deadlocked Korean
prisoner of war issue-apparent-
ly along the West-demanded
principles of non -forcible repa-
triation.
This action got a new boost
yesterday when Soviet Foreign
Minister v. M. Molotov an
nounced The Kremlin's full sup
port of the offer, indicating to
the world that it was a serious
move to end the war in Korea.
Efforts by India's v. K.
Krishna Menon to get the U. N.
Assembly to seize Immediately
the new Red oyertures as the
basis for reopening Korean talks
here were sidestepped yesterday
by the Assembly's recess for
Easter.
Mr.. VishinSky'S version of the
soft approach" was an amend
ment he submitted yesterday to
the WeStern-backed resolution
on disarmament scheduled for
consideration when the Assem-
bly, reconvenes on Tuesday.

If you want to be correct. put

B-e-r-i-a)-but actually accord

might as well get this straight
now. because the name is going

come.

Natures Children


Of all ages are captured. In Asia.
where they are used as beasts Of
burden, young or baby elephants
are taken to be used in heavy
hauling jobs.
A baby elephant at birth will
weigh 215 pounds. 1t is weaned
at the age of 4, though it
manages to steal milk from its
affectionate mother, who will
grieve over the loss of her infant.
At a very early age they dis
cover they can tease their
mother and that she is extremely
ticklish. The body of the infant
at birth is covered with a coat
of hair. This is shed within a
few weeks, exposing the grayish
pink skin which soon sprouts a
coat of coarse black hair. From
birth the trunk is limp. Grad
ually the muscles begin to re-
spond until the trunk can be
used to draw water.

The rewards are greater, the
penalties are more disastrous and
the decisions are more complex.
The largest part of the gamble
in bridge is right here.
You can be reasonably precise
about a game bid. or a slam bid
or about executing a squeeze or
an end-play. But precision goes
out the window when you are
deciding whether or not to get
into the bidding after it has been
opened ahead of you.
These points are we'll inllus-
trated by today's deal. The hand
was played in an important team
of-four match. Mr.. Truck, a
very fine player, decided he had
enough to come in with a bid of
two hearts. Many would agree
with him. The record does not
include detailed description of
the play. 1t merely shows the
terSe comment, Down 1,100."
Mr.. Truck was anxious to see
how the East player for the COM
peting team had Jared in the
other room. The answer was
astounding. That East player
had stayed out of the bidding
entirely. He passed the one
spade opening and the South
player then bid two hearts. His
partner raised to three hearts
and he went on to four.
The East player doubled and
the North player redoubled.
When the smoke cleared away,
the contract was down three or
1900 points. The swing on the
hand was a cool 2,700 points
based principally on the decision
whether to overcall the spade
opening or to pass it.

Caused by Virus

Bluetongue is caused by a virus
which is carried by gnat. Because
the gnat carries the virus the disease
is a summer disease that abruptly
stops after the first frost in the fall.
Extensive vaccination reduces the
losses suffered from this disease in
Africa. Veterinarians in the United
States, at this time, do not wish to
obtain vaccine from Africa because
they are fearful more virulent strains
of the virus may be imported. So
far the disease in the United States
has been caused by only three rel
atively mild strains of the virus.
Since vaccination is the only
method of control, veterinarians in
California are rushing to develop a
vaccine from the three strains of the
virus recovered from affected United
States sheep.
The appearance of African blue
tongue in the United States again
serves to point out that disease
knows no boundaries.

Bluetongue Disease of Sheep
Appears In Southwest
ByJ w. Stafford, d. v. NJ
Veterinary
BY ]. w. Stafford, d. v. M.

IN THE SOUTHWESTERN part
of the United States sheepmen have
been experiencing extensive out
breaks of disease in sheep that was
called ''soremuzzle." Veterinarians
investigating the disease suspected
disease called 'bluetongue" that has
caused severe losses in sheep in
Africa for a long time.
Bluetongue had never been OBJ
served anyplace else in the world
except Africa, Cyprus and Pales-
tine. Upon submitting material from
the sheep affected with "soremuzzle"
to the Onderstepoort Laboratory in
South Africa, it was proven that the
disease was the same as African
bluetongue.
Since the spread of bluetongue in
sheep is quite extensive in the
southwestern part of this country,
we should check up on this disease
so we can recognize it should it de-
eide to pop up in Montana or Wyo-
ming.
High Temperature
The first symptom, usually UNI
noticed, is high temperature often
rising to 1865 degrees. The high
temperature lasts about three days.
Then the lips will swell, the animal
may become lame and red band
may appear around the tops of the
animals hooves. There is a red in
Illumination of the lining of the
mouth and the tongue may become
greatly swollen. Often times a
severe diarrhea will be present.
In Africa, at times, the death rate
will be extremely high. Fortunately,
so far, the death rate among affected
sheep has not been high in the

United States. The most obvious eff
feet has been the rapid and ex-
IRENE loss of weight. In some af-
fected sheep the fleece sheds off. In
others there will be a definite wool
break. Rams are more susceptible
than ewes. Sheep that are exposed
to the sun develop more severe
form of the disease than those re-
manning in the shade. Cattle can
contract the infection, but it does
not seem to do them much harm.
1t is suspected that cattle can be-
come the reservoirs of infection for
sheep.
