Judge Joe Cashin of the Nebraska
Compensation Court was driving

EducationOf
HeirToThrone
OF Spain Set
BY LOUIS p. NEVIN

MADRID, Spain PA govern
ment communique last night said
the education of Juan Carlos, eld-
est son of the pretender to the
Spanish throne, has been arranged
IN attention to the place he occu-
pies in the dynasty" But it gave
no hint of any plans to restore the
royal family.
The communique was issued
after eight hours of talks yesterday
between Generalissimo Francisco
Franco and Don Juan of Bourbon.
Juan CarloS'S father and a son of
Spain's last king.
1t said the two agreed that Juan
Carlos, II, should complete his
education in Spain ''for the best
service to the nation"
Spain was officially declared a
monarchy without king in 1947
after a popular referendum gave
an overwhelming majority for a
return of the royal family. The
Franco regime has opposed the
succession of Don Juan, urging
that he abdicate his claims on the
throne in favor of his son.
The Franco-Don Juan talks were
held at the country estate of the
Count of Ruisenada, a leading mon
archist, about $50 miles southwest
of Madrid
1nformants said they believed
Don Juan agreed to a request from
Franco that he return to Spain
from time to time. Don Juan lives
in exile in Portugal.
The pretender maintains that he
is the titular head of the BourbonS,
Spain's ruling house from 1888 to
1881, since the abdication of his
father, the late King Alfonso XIII,
and his elder brother Don jaime.
The Franco regime has opposed
his succession to the throne on the
grounds that he has been too long
absent from Spain. 1t also objected
to statements he made in the past
which it said had alienated a
majority of the people.

PARIS R - Premier Pierre
Mendes.France doggedly called
again today on Frances reluctant
National Assembly for the final
okay on German rearmament
after Communist maneuvering
blocked the crucial vote for "a
hours.
The deputies were scheduled to
vote on the last of the Paris
treaties still awaiting their ap-
proval-the key measure authoriz-
ing West Germany to raise a 500,-
OOO-man armed force as part Of
a seyen-nation Western European
Union.
Once again the Premier called
for a vote of confidence, requiring
his governments resignation if the
Assembly rejected the treaty. In
the Assembly's previous week of
wrangling over the treaties, Men,
des-France survived two such
votes.
The Assembly already has rati.
fled the three other major sections
of the London-P aris accords. Early
today the weary deputies reaf.
firmed 2S7-256 Frances acceptance
of West Germany as a partner
in the North Atlantic Treaty Or
ganization. On Monday the dep.
uties approved the two separate
articles of the NATO measure 289-
251; today the margin was cut
BY seven votes.
The other agreements, ending
the Allied occupation of West Ger
many and putting the disputed
Saar Valley under international
control, WIRE ratified quickly last
Friday after the Assembly first
voted down the German rearma-
ment pact.
Because he had not made the
latter pact a confidence issue,
Mendes-France was able to call
again for its ratification in a new
bill. A showdown had been ex-
pected in last nights Assembly
session. Intricacies of French par
liamentary procedure, manipulated
by the Assembly's Communist bloc
forced the postponement.

pital here last night, after a $685.
eOc bubble burst to leave her vir.

reported
Detective 1t. H. B. Short said
Mrs. Turner, of Los Angeles, re-
ported she had lost her savings
OF $22, 500 to two men in Acapulco,
Mexico, in what he said appeared
to be a variation of an age-old
swindle routine. t'~
Short said Mrs. Turner told him
she met the men while on a vaca-
ton, trip to Acapulco several days
ago.
One. of the men, seated at a
restaurant table with Mrs. Turner,
found" billfold containing 5000
which belonged to the second man,
Short related.
Scheme Proposed
When the billfold was returned
to the apparent owner. the latter
proposed a scheme by which the
tnree of them could clean up on
betting.
Later, the profits were reported
to be $203, 900, but it was neces
sary for Mrs. Turner to put up the

officer said. Mrs. Turner told the
officer she returned to her Los

Mrs. Turner said she was gwen

Fish Talk In Ocean Depths
BY ALTON L. BLAKEsLEE
AP Science Rscor,.r

BERKELEY, Calf. R,-In those
sc-called silent deeps of the sea
fish beep, crackle, pop, whistle
moan, NEW, bark. tap, creak and
croak.
This fish talk comes in amaz.
ing variety, and some fish are
downright loquacious. Some of il
is love stuff; some just chatter
to keep contact with others of the
gang.
An underwater addition of fish
and shellfiSh was played on a rec
ord today for the American Assn
for the Advancement of Science
by DR.. Marie Poland Fish of the
Narragansett Marine Laboratory.
University of Rhode Island.
Very likely, she says, the myth
Of the song of the sirens came
from ancient mariners in the
Mediterranean who heard one kind
Of fish singing a breeding season
chorus.
But only recently has the great
variety of fish talk been appre-
ciated and pinned down. Scient-
lists had to get busy fast in World
War II when the din and funny
finny sounds threw curves at the
sound-detection devices of subma-
rlners.
Now dozens of families of fish
and crustaceans have been pegged
as noisemakers. Shrimps click
claws; some fish get verbal with
air bladders or by rubbing together
teeth, bones or fins.
Some selections from the audi
tons, made by DR.. Fish and Will
liam H. Mowbray, give you an
idea:
Shrimp beds-crackle like burn
ing fat; the tautog-deep thumps;
Nassau grouper-booms; rock hind
--muffled grunts; toadfish-coarse
cultural growls or in breeding sea-
son some loud calls like a boat
whistle.
Studies of the fish talk could
have practical uses. DR.. Fish said.
1t could help in detecting schools
cf fish, and fish talk might be
cuplic ated to attract fish. Certain
ly it could help in more efficient
use of sound devices on subma-
rines or other vessels.

License Plate
Print On Pants
Brings Arrest

ST. PAUL, Minn. IA bloody
imprint formed by the impact of
the license plates of hit-run car
Up the trouser leg of the victim led
yesterday to the arrest Of a st.
Paul youth.
Donald A. Parizino, 21, was
charged with leaving the scene of
an accident after Police Sgt. Ar
thur Stattman said he admitted he
was the driver Of the car which
seriously injured Miles Cooper, 4S,
Of st. Paul, two weeks ago.
Hospital attendants slit Cooper's
trousers down the press line so a
snlint could be out on his broken
leg. The trousers were later picked
up by Cooper's family.
While the trousers lay in Cooper'S
hume for several days, police
searched almost hopelessly for the
hit-run driver.
Tuesday when Mrs. Cooper de-
c!ded to throw the trousers away,
she noticed what she thought might
lie tire tracks on the leg. She
called police.
Three numbers were visible and
Photographic processes brought out
the last of the numbers in the four
digit plate. A check of records
showed about 400 plates with the
same number had been issued to
license holders with different dou-
ble.letter prefixes.
The list was narrowed to six
prospects" who lived in the neigh
horhood where Cooper was hit.

Useless Pen
Is Given To
Jailed'Writer
Rx FRED zusY

ISTANBUL, Turkey R-DeputleS
from the major opposition party
bought Huasein Cahi Yalcin desk
pen for his 80th birthday. Two
things made that unusual. The pen
was chained tightly to its base SO
it could not be used. And Yalcin,
Turkeys most famous columnist,
was in a Jail where no such gifts
were allowed. ~
A criminal court sentenced him
to 26 months for insulting Prime
Minister Adnan Menderes, under
press laws frightened last March.
More than 20 journalists have been
jailed or face criminal charges.
Now, however, there are signs
the pressure has eased, and that
the Menderes government recog-
nizes it has a bear by the tail.
It's against the law to insult or
attack the honor or dignity of any
Turkish citizen, or delve into any
ones private life without his con-
sent. The penalty can be heavier
up to nine yearS-if the one insult
ed is a public official.
It's also forbidden to insult the
moral personality of the Turkish
nation, the Turkish Parliament or
Turkish justice.
In the election campaign last
May some pens ran hot, including
Yalcin's. He called Menderes a
liar for saying Yalcin had secreted
a private fortune abroad. A gov
ernment spokesman says one Of
the statements which put Yalcin
behind bars was an article say
ing:
"A country which keeps in its
administration such a prime min.
lister (Menderes) loses everything
so far as honor and prestige are
concerned in the western world"
Exponents of the Menderes press
policy say restrictions are neces.
sary because of past abuses and
to keep controls on subversives.
Some critics ask why Menderes
with control of more than 80 per
cent of the seats in Parliament
seems so fearful of an opposition
press.

Curator Of Photography
The Smiihsonion institution

Photography is one answer
to the annual Christmas gift
problem. Nearly every one has
an interest In one form Of
photography or another still,
motion picture, color, or black
and white. Here Is a rundown
on some popular items with
brief descriptions and approx
mate costs.
Children begin to show an
interest In taking pictures
at about the age Of eight, al
though some start earlier.
Some adults have for many
years practiced the art fever
ishly, while others wait for
special occasions to bring out
the camera. So. before decid-
ing about q gift for an indi-
vidual, learn where his prin-
cipal interests In photography
lie. Find out what items he
already has. With these fac
tors in mind you should have
little difficulty In deciding on
the right gift.
Some Suggested Items
Those who take snapshots
always seems to have an eye on
a better camera; the same ap-
plies to amateur cinematog-
raphers. Then, for the still
fans. there are literally hun
dreds Of items Of processing
materials and equipment to
choose from: Exposure meters,
tripods. developing tanks. trays
chemicals. Aims, enlargers,
contact printers. papers, al
buns. stereo viewers, flash
equipment. processing sets,
slide projectors. books on
photography, lenses. and many
more.
Movie makers, in addition to
cameras, always seem to be In
need of additional lenses. tri-
pods. meters. screens. splicers,
titlers. projectors. and q host
Of other things that are part
and parcel Of cinematography.
Costs range from less than a
dollar to whatever the traffic
will bear. No matter how little
or how much your budget win
allow, you can be sure you can
give something that will be
appreciated.
Simple Cameras Get Results
For the youngster, or even
the adult beginner, we suggest
giving q box camera or other
inexpensive and simple o-op-
crate camera. The very lack Of

will stimulate interest in the
neophyte where it might well
wither In the face OF q costly
instrument that requires ad-
vanced knowledge. With the
simpler cameras the operator
can aim 1t, press the button,
and be reasonably sure Of tax
ing . satisfactory picture. This
type camera can be purchased
for as little as $3 and. with q
few rolls Of 1ilm. makes q fine
gift for the beginner.
For those ready to leave the
box camera stage you might
choose q folding or reflex
camera. These bear price tags
from about $40 to $500, or
more. depending upon lens,
shutter, and other advanced
features.
