Defense Chiefs Plan Special Fleet
 To Operate in Frozen Arctic

WASHINGTON, Defense chiefs plan to build a special fleet of vessels able to operate in the frozen arctic, it was disclosed Wednesday. This was new evi- dence that the arctic may be a vital strategic area if World War III should break out.
 Vice Arm. Francis E. Dene- brink, commander of the Military Sea Transportation Center Ser vice, urged senators to approve a special 50 million dollar fund to build a number of vessels. Six of them would be capable of break ing ice or withstanding great ice pressure.
 The admiral heads the Military Sea Transportation Service MS TS), which carries gasoline, weap- ons and other cargo as well as troops to many US. bases.
 ''These ships will be available immediately in the event of a sudden outbreak of hostilities," :" the admiral said in a statement.
 He said the availability of ice strengthened ships twill permit augmentation of logistic supports by MSTS to all arctic bases by greatly extending the season dur ing which essential supplies can pc delivered"
 Denebrink said the six vessels include an 'ice-strengthened car go ship capable of self loading and unloading assembled landing craft costing 1115 million dollars; two special tankers at 515 million each; and three special small cargo ships at millions each.

Defense officials have stressed in recent years that the shortest air distance between Soviet Rus sia and the United States is across the northern polar areas That is the reason for multi-million-do lar outlays for air bases, radar networks and other facilities in Alaska, Greenland, etc.
 Denebrink said a seventh novel vessel will be "a vehicle cargo ship" specially designed so that tanks, trucks and other vehicles can quickly roll on and off. He said about one-fourth the dry cargo now carried for the armed services is vehicles and the special ship, to cost 1872 million, would lower delivery time and sharply reduce terminal costs.
 The House already has approved the 50 million dollar fund. It will come before the Senate as part of the Defense Money Bill.

Russia Accuses British Major Of Espionage

LONDON, P-Russia Thursday accused a British major now in London of spying on her military secrets and said he could not re- turn to his post in Moscow
 The Soviet charge came just six days after Britain accused two assistant air attaches at the Rus sian Embassy in London of at- tempting to engage in spy activi- ties. The two, both majors in the Red air force, were given 10 days to leave the country.
 The Foreign Office identified the Briton as Maj. Charles R. P. Landon, an assistant military at tache in this country's Moscow Embassy.
 A spokesman said that the Brit ish government remains "unim- pressed" by the Soviets' espionage charge. In the Foreign Office view the Kremlin action was in retalia- tion for the British demand that the two Soviet majors leave.
 Soviet Ambassador Jacob Malik told the foreign office Wednesday his government rejected the charges against the two majors, but added that they would be withdrawn from London.
 Landon is at present vacation ing in Britain. The Foreign Office said he would not return to his post.
 The Kremlin's apparent tit-for- tat action had been expected by the British.

SYMPATHY When the
late Fannie Brice was a
child, she spent many an
afternoon at Coney Island.
She would stroll along the
boardwalk, shifting at the
delicacies, but rarely tasting
them, as her family was
poor and could not afford
such luxurieS.
One day, while with her
brother, the tantalizing
aromas made her desperate.
Stopping q kindly old man,
she pretended to be lost.
Would he please give her
directions for walking home?
She gave an address some
five miles distant.
The old mans sympathy
was aroused at once. OF
course he would give her
directions. But walking was
out of the question. He in
sisted on giving her carfare.
Fannie and her brother
were so pleased with the
deception, they tried 1t
again and again. BY the end
Of the day, they had bought
