Bengal Reds Escape
Arrest in Parliament
BY the Assoeioied Press

CALCUTTA, India, Feb. 10
Three top Communist leaders of
Bengal State resorted to parli-
mentary immunity yesterday to
eVade arrest in connection with
two days of mob violence that
has brought death to six persons
IN Calcutta.
Demonstrations continued and
police opened fire on rioters
again yesterday as the Red tri-
umvirate took refuge in the leg
iSlative halls.
The three asked for sanctuary
and were promised immunity in
definitely there by the speaker
OF the house. Such immunity
is traditional in parliaments.
The three are the leader of
the Bengal Reds. Jyoti Basu, and
his lieutenants. Ranen Sen and
Heinanat Ghosal.
Authorities said police had to
open fire to end rioting led by
Communists after breaking up
the last of a series of demon
STATIONS.
The United States Informa-
ton Office library was among
the targets. United States Am
bassador George v. Allen asked
the Indian government for an
explanation of the attack.
The violence stemmed from a
strike for more pay by $4,000
teachers from 1000 West Bengal
schools.

Adams EIaborates
On Fear Deal Remark
BY NE Associated Press

Sherman Adams, No. / aide to
President Eisenhower, says he
wasn't extremely critical or
caus:ic recently when he &C
cused the Democrats of spread
ing a fear deal"
Nor, he said last night, did he
believe President Eisenhower
had him in mind when the Presi-
dent told a news conference.-the
week the times are too serious
for extreme partisanship. The
President said he would counsel
administration officials to avoid
it in talking about Democrats.
Mr.. Adams. interviewed on an
NBC radio show. said he criti-
cized Democrats for saying bust
ness was on the downgrade be-
cause that was something he
thought needed correcting. His
speech was not extreme" he
said. although some Democrats
attacked it with fiery protests.
Through the medium of
gloom and doom. people co lose
confidence" Mr.. Adams said.
There is nothing in the system
today to generate gloom about
the future. Around here We are
pretty much a bunch of opti-
miStS."

EASTERN FRONT. Korea.
Feb. 18.-An American soldier
was knocked down and trampled
tonight by an unruly throng Of
shouting, stomping GIs who
Surged toward a stage on which
Marllyn Monroe was singing.
The crowd of about 5000 45th
Division soldiers had booed early
acts-not Marilyn's--.threw rocks
at the stage and shouted Bring
on Marilyn."
In an effort to quiet the dis
turbance other acts were cut
short and Miss Monroe made an
early appearance.
There was an immediate surge
toward the stage by soldiers
shouting so loudly they drowned
out her singing.
One soldier went down and
was trampled. lie finally was
pulled free and taken away in
an ambulance. There was no
report on the seriousness of his
injuries, or his identity.
Miss Monroe bolted from the
stage as soon as she completed
her 8-minute singing stint in
below-zero weather. Some one
tossed an Army parka over her
tight purple gown and she left
quickly in an Army sedan.
