A search to find the agent that

on by scientists at the University

ton while the spleen is protected
in a lead covering. He has found
that high percentage OF mice

the rays. Evidently, DR.. Jacob

spleen from radiation rays in a
lead covering, this organ taxes
over the blood-forming function
of bone marrow which has been
destroyed by radiation.

A jury began deliberately to-

The two defendants on trial
are Abraham Levine. SO. of the

Both also were accused of as
sault with intent to kill a night

Five ArmyL Leaders Pulled Coup

sible to talk about Beria as long
as the talk is against him.
These sources said the basic
argument between Beria and
other members of the politburo
was over the concept of Soviet
government.
Beria, devoted to Stain. be-
lieved that one-man rule was
the only kind that would work
in Russia. Malenkov and others
agreed that dictatorship is nee
essary for Russia's masses. but
said it should be a committee
form of government.
The disparity was so wide
there was only one way to end
the argument. the politburo con-
cluded. and the army was called
in to do the Ratchet work.
When the decision was made,
the purge leaders rounded up
enough evidence" to justify
their action. They discovered
Beria had ordered the execution
Of Rudolf Slansky. veteran Com
munist leader of Czechoslovakia,
and other Jewish Czech Com
munistS.
The Slansky case shook Red
followers throughout the satel-
lites. for none regarded himself
as more loyal to Moscow than
the burning-eyed Slansky.
Embarrassed by Arrests.
The politburo linked this with
Beria'S arrest of a group of jew
iSh physicians in Moscow on a
charge of plotting against the
lives of Soviet leaders, charge
that was subsequently tossed out
as falSe-and concluded the anti
semitic line involved had en-
barrassed the Soviet regime in
the eyes Of the world.
This is primarily why Beria
was branded as an "imperialist. u
it was explained. He had done
the "mperialist" world favor.

7 Soviet Proposals
On Germany Arouse
Interest Of West
BY Crosby S. Moves
foreign Correspondent Of The Stor

BERLIN, Feb. 18.-The For
eign Ministers have turned tlleil
attention to other subjects today
but the Western three have still
to null over couple of Russian
proposals on Germany which
even at this late date. have
managed to arouse at least a
flicker of interest.
! At the close of yesterdays ses-
sion Soviet Foreign Minister
Molotov proposed creation OF
two alderman committees to be
appointed by the East and West
governments.
The first would deal with eco
nomic relations between the East
zone and the Federal Republic
working out agreements on such
matters as settlement of &C
counts. freedom of transport
and frontier regulations.
The second would work fol
elimination of existing obstacles
to German national culture
with emphasis on science anG
sport.
Reaction is Incompatible.
The first reaction of the allied
camp was feeling of Slight dis
comfort at having been beaten
to the draw on this proposal
The West is known to have been
working on a similar plan of its
own, but apparently had de-
cided to wait. until after the enc
of the conference to bring il
| up.
1t has also been pointed out
that the Russian proposals are
not new, that they were intro
duced primarily for propaganda
purposes and that they are ap-
parently aimed at achieving
some kind of limited negotiation
/ between the East and West
German governments.
| In agreeing to consider them
the Western ministers will al
most certainly duck this last
aspect Of the Molotov plan
Secretary of State Dulles has
already voiced his misgivings
about dealing with the tyrani-
cal government of the Eastern
zone" British Foreign Secre-
tary Eden has suggested that
the matters described by Mr.
Molotov might be properly
handled by the high commits
sioners. The most likely solu-
ton, providing Mr.. Molotov will
buy it, is that negotiations. as
in the past, will continue on a
! four-poWer basis rather than by
direct talks between two German
governments.
Offer Is Amazing.
But the real interest in the
Russian plan lies rather in the
fact that it was offered at all
That it was is taken as signif1-
cant clue to the Kremlin's future
policy in Germany.
In discussing the possible re-
suits of this conference. some
concern has been expressed that
the failure in Berlin might bring
the Iron Curtain crashing down
again in Central Europe. If the
talks had the effect of actually
increasing East-West tension. il
was felt that the Russians might
react by clamping on new re-
strictive measures and reversing
the present trend toward closer
relations with the West.
But. if Mr.. Molotov's proposals
can be taken at their face value

Therefore Malenkov sent Molo-

Senate Confirmation
Of Beeson Predicted
Despite Hostility
BY the Associated Press


The Senate squared off today
for bitter debate on the nomina-
ton of Albert c. Beeson to the
National Labor Relations Board,
with indications that he will be
confirmed by a slim margin.
Republicans appeared to be
lined up solidly behind the At
year-old California businessman
named to the NLRB by President
Eisenhower. Most Democrats in
dictated they would vote against
him. but there were exceptions.
One of these was Senator
Byrd, Democrat, of Virginia, who
said in an interview: ~ think
I'll support him. If there is
no conflict of interest-and my
investigation doesn't disclose it
Ill be for him.
Democrats Dissent.
The Senate Labor Committees
Republican majority said in a
report yesterday that Mr.. Bee
sons resignation from a job he
had held as an executive of a
California firm completely dis
sipates the alleged conflict of
interest and makes him "emi-
nently qualified" for the NLRB
post. But the committees Dem
ocratic minority took quite
different tack.
The six Democrats on the COM
mittee. which questioned Mr..
Beeson at length. accused him of
giving the committee what they
called deceptive and misleading
testimony" on three counts.
In formal report to the SEN
ate, the committee minority said
Mr.. Beeson gave false" testi-
mony when he said that he had
resigned from the Food Ma
chinery & Chemical Corp" had
given up his pension rights" and
had not made statements APP
pearing in the San Jose Mercury.
Testimony Raped.
Mr.. Beeson was vice president
OF the food machinery firm, at
San Jose, Calf, before being
name dto the NLRB.
The Democrats declared that
Mr.. Beeson withheld informa-
ton OF Importance and revealed
facts only with reluctance and
when confronted with contra
dictionS in his own testimony"
Labor Committee Republicans
filed a last-minute report ex-
pressing full confidence in Mr..
Beeson. They noted that Mr..
Beeson has now submitted a
written resignation to his old
employer and said:
This resignation completely
dissipates the alleged conflict of
interest which Democrats have
said would make Mr.. Beeson I'M
fit for a job on a semi judicial
agency. such as the NLRB.
Might Break Deadlocks.
Gen. Eisenhower named Mr..
Beeson to a one-year term on
the NLRB early last month.
Since last August the board has
had only four members and
more than 80 cases are reported
deadlocked, 20. Mr.. Beeson's
confirmation would break any
deadlocks that might exist be-
tween Eisenhower appointees
and holdovers from the Truman |
administration.
The majority report called Mr.. |
Beeson "eminently qualified"
with the required academic
background supplemented by
years Of practical experience in
the labor-management relations
field"
