grand jury Tuesday in scoring
the hiring of minors in the Coun-

County Manager E. T. Beall
said eight minors working for
the department will not be fired,
but added that no new ones
would be hired.
Mr.. Beall said no minor has
been driving trucks since the De-

19-year old county beer truck
driver struck and killed two
youths on the Garrett Park Ken

Councilman Lathrop Smith
called on the manager to set up
some sort of special test for all
drivers hired by the county.

Just because a COW does not
eat all the hay from her manger
does not necessarily mean that
she has had all she wants to eat.
Some milk cows are choosy, and
will stand hungry rather than
eat something they don't like.
Cows need lot of feed for high
production, and they won't eat
a lot unless they get something
they like.

Grafton, there is always the
chance that society will become
impolite enough to stop laughing

Not yet, however. It is this
reporters surprising duty to
record that last nights first

to find Dear. Charles" almost as
funny as ever. 1t did not respond

Dear Charles" q hit in Paris
and London in that chronological
order, is an Aldrich and Myers
production with John j. Wildberg
and Julius Fleishmann as
associates.
Aldrich and Myers were the
producers a couple Of seasons ago
of THE Moon Is Blue" It is not
difficult to detect the continuity
of mood between the two plays
for the new one might aptly be
called "The Moon Was Blue"
The heroine of the first comedy
was worried about the biological
aftermath of a Irritation. In
Dear Charles" the heroine is
beyond the need to worry on
that score. She has three chill
dren by as many fathers. Her
problem is how to get the little
so-and-sos cozily and more
conventionally arranged in mat
rimony than she herself managed.
Triple-rich, this dilemma is
not only one in which the aver
age mortal finds no identification
but also one in which even an
academic interest is difficult.
Miss Lii Darvas who plays the
dam of this odd brood keeps
seeming to have gone too far.
The point is one that merits
careful consideration by the next
author of Dear Charles" Marc
Gilbert Sauvajon and his adap-
ter. Alan Melville, ignored it

Possibly because human nature
has made small provision for it,
Director Romney Brent has been
unable to create the impression
his middle-aged sinners could
have been that lively in youth.
At their best. retired adventures
are difficult types. A genuine
talent and enthusiasm for mis-
behaviour would have kept them
from getting flabby. For all the
visible evidence of the heroine's
staying in this case. these peo-
pie seem to lack the true gift
Of sin.
1t is a commentary on the
comedy level of Dear Charles"
that it's funniest character is the
Col. Blimpish Englishman. This
man is the father of the hero
ines oldest son, as of course an
Englishman should be. He is
also the perfect stereotype of the
romantic bumbler from one of
the northern counties whose way
of addressing a paramour as
''old girl" is the whole key to his
character.

Light Thrown on Fields Case
Trio Reportedy Caught in Purge Of Titoss and Released
When YugosIov Dictator Was Returned to Favor

the Fields were named as
Western agents.
The native Communists who
went to their death as a re-
suit of such evidence cannot
be revived. But Tito is back
in Moscow's favor and the
Fields are out of Jail.
The Fields, especially Noel,
knew East Europe well. Noel
was suspected of being a link
between Yugoslav leaders and
the independent Communists
of other East European coun-
tries. Anna Louise Strong.
veteran American pro-Com-
munist, was thrown out of
the Soviet Union as an Amer
lean agent in those same years.
No charge could be more non
sensical. A friend of Michael
Borodin, who headed a Soviet
mission to China in 1927. she
was suspected of being a link
between Borodin and Mao TIE
Tung (whom she also knows)
in behalf of Tito. Borodin
recently died in a Soviet labor
camp, after which he was Of
fcially eulogized!
Other still living victims
have been quietly released in
all East European countries,
including Wieslaw Gomulko.
But did Noel Field ever work
with Allen Dulles? The huge
irony is that he did-not
against Communists but for
them.
Field, who had worked on
League of Nations affairs in
the State Department. Joined
the League In Geneva before
the war and was a fervent
believer in popular fronts"
including the Communists. At
the outbreak of the war the
United States Government had
information that Noel was
operating in a Russian-con-
trolled network, but nothing
was done while Russia was
our ally. Field, with head
quarters in Geneva, went from
the League into the relief
work of the Unitarian Church,
rescuing political refugees from
Hitler. During this time he
had excellent relations with
Allen Dulles who was heading
American counterintelligence
in Switzerland, and through
Dulles he received money and
technical help for all refugees
fleeing or hiding from Hitler.
Field, with this aid, gave
special attention to saving
European Communist leaders.
The accusation, therefore.
that he was an American agent
against Communists is poppy
cock. When the cold war be-
Evening star., 1954-12-06

gan, his relations with Mr..
Dulles were severed and he
became useless for Communist
counter espionage. But he was
warmly welcomed in the East
European states by old friends
now government leaders.
OF course, the Communist
party which now says that the
Fields were innocent has never
admitted that the other vic
tins, good Communists all,
were also innocent. The blame
for some arrests is even being
put upon traitors" now con-
veniently dead.
We do not know how inti-
mate acquaintance with the
operation of Iron Curtain poll
tics and the insides of Com
munist jails has affected the
views of Noel Field. It is grue-
some to consider that some of
the Communists he rescued
from Hitler'S GeStapo were
subsequently hanged by Stall
ms. But we doubt if he will
reveal anything to American
authorities. Miss Strong, while
protesting her innocence of
being an American agent, has
apparently not changed her
pro- Communist views. Mr..
Field has only said that he
does not want his case to add
tn ssinternationaI tensions"
