 Helping in
 Jordan Crisis

WASHINGTON, R,-The United States was reported using every resource of it's diplomacy today to prevent the Jordanian crisis from exploding into a new Middle East war.
 The possibility that American forces would become directly in volved in the crisis under present circumstances was generally dis counted here
 But no official could say when these circumstance might change radically, creating need for new decisions by President Eisenhow- CT.
 State Department informants were extremely reluctant to talk about secret diplomatic efforts in Middle Eastern capitals, but it was understood that American representatives were under in- structions to emphasize to all the governments there the extreme seriousness with which Washing ton views the situation and to urge that they do nothing to rock the boat"
 That phrase was used by Sen ate COP Leader Knowland yes terday after he and Sen. Mans field D-Mont) had conferred for 40 minutes with Secretary of State Dulles. Knowland told newsmen that everyone in that area of the world would be well not to rock the boat"

US. Agrees To Suez Plan

UNITED NATIONS, NY, R- The United States agreed today to accept Egypt's Suez plan on a provisional basis, but reserved it's final acceptance until the plan has been put to trial.
 The US. position was laid be- fore the LIN. Security Council by Ambassador Henry Cabot Lodge, who said the plan announced by the Egyptian government earlier this week left much to be desired.
 Lodge announced that, pending final settlement, US. vessels will be authorized to pay tolls to Egypt only under protest, as has been the case since President Nasser natiomalized the 1O3-mile waterway last July.
 The Egyptian plan calls for collection of tolls and operation of the canal by Egypt Egypt, however, pledged itself to submit disputes to international arbitra- tion and to agree to abide by de- cisions of the International Court of Justice on disputes over inter pretation of the Convention of 1888, which provides for the free passage of all vessels through the canal.

Another Soviet Spy Pleads Guilty

NEW YORK, R-Jacob Albam, accused member of a Soviet spy ring, today pleaded guilty to con- spring with Russians to obtain US. defense data for transmits sion to Russia.
 Albam, GA, was the third mem Der of an espionage ring, seized by the FBI early this year, to confess his guilt
 His action came Is days after two cohorts in the plot, Jack So- ble, 53, and Soble's wife, Myra, 52, entered similar pleas, and threw themselves on the mercy of the court. By so doing, they apparently sought to escape the death penalty.
 Next Friday was set for sen tencing them. Each could get up to 10 years in prison and a fine of S10,000 or both.
 The trio, all three of them ref ugees from the iron curtain, were charged on a six-count indictment which detailed spy activities here and abroad.

Prince and Pauper Brothers Come To
 Parting of the Ways

LOS ANGELES, (R-This is a prince and pauper tale of two brothers-one a millionaire, the other a door-to-door flower ped d1er.
 Their story came to light yes terday at a hearing in which the flower vendor was ordered to quit demanding money from his wealthy brother and to stop shouting insults at him in public .-or go to jail.
 Haig Prince, 56, is a wealthy Los Angeles real estate investor. Anthony Prince, 49, sells flowers from a tray. He claims Haig re fuses to support him.
 ''He should help me-" Anthony said Thursday. "Haig went tC college. I only had year ot school"
 Haig said he brought Anthony  to America from their native Turkey 12 years ago, and until last year gave him $150-a- month pension.
 "In this land of opportunity, ' said Haig, "a man can make much of himself. The money I gave only encouraged idleness.
 The city attorney warned An thony to stay away from Haig or be prosecuted.
 q will stay away if he desires so," said Anthony.
 q desire so" said Haig. He left refusing to shake hands with An thony.
 Anthony picked up his tray ot flowers, stared at them and re- marked: ''The Bible says brothers should be brothers"

Racketeering in
 Labor Probe Just Begun, Says Sen.

NEW YORK, R-Sen. John L. Mcclellan D-Ark says Senate probers have turned up evidence of racketeering in labor and in dustry which could lead to "a gangsterism economy"
 The chairman of the bipartisan Senate Packets Committee spoke last night before the annual din- ner of the Bureau of Advertising of the American Newspaper Pub fishers Association (ANPA.
 Mcclellan said the work of his committee, after year-long in vestigation, has 'barely begun ,
 "Racketeering," he said, lis a threat to liberty. It is criminal, and it has no place in our civil ized society.
 If left alone, unchecked and unrestrained, with the momentum it has already gained, we could be heading for gangsterism economy in America. That must not occur. The responsibility rests upon all of us to prevent it."
 Mcclellan said the committee will continue it's exposure of wrongdoing in both labor and in  management until Congress has enough information to "clean up the mess"
 Evidence thus far, he said, has revealed "close pattern of graft, corruption and ties to the underworld.

 The gondola is tear-shaped, md about seven feet in height. Its skin is reinforced inside with up- right aluminum-alloy beams that enable the gondola> to withstand pressure twice as great as that expected at 92,0O0 feet.

King Hussein Blannes Reds for Jordan Crisis

leg
 AMMAN, Jordan, R-The fu- ture of Jordan hung in the bal ance today.
 Defense Minister Suleiman Tou- kan was appointed military gov- ernor of all Jordan as King Illus sein's kingdom passed through it's second day of martial law.
 Toukan as military governor will wield tremendous power in the seething country.
 King Hussein declared his in tention to fight out the crisis. He blamed international Communism for bringing it on.
 The United States voiced SUD- port anew for the independence and integrity of Jordan-and or dered its 9th Fleet back into the eastern Mediterranean.
 Yesterday total curfew was imposed on the capital city of Amman, the Old City of Jerusa- lem, Nablus, Ramallah and Irbid.
 Under the decree of martial law, police were put under con- trol of the army, whose tough core Bedouin fighters are loyal to King Hussein.
 The country's 10 political par ties were abolished yesterday
 Ibrahim Hashem, 83, was chos- en to head seven-man Cabinet of moderates. His government to- day banned all public prayer ser vices for the Moslem sabbath, the idea being to prevent large gath erings which extreme groups, in cluding the Communists, might turn into violent demonstrations.
 King Hussein insisted in talk with American reporters yester- day that he did not need outside assistance. He said he would de- eide with other Arab states" whether they would accept the Eisenhower program.
 The American stand supporting Jordan's integrity and calling it vital to US. interests and world peace, was restatement of the Eisenhower doctrine. Britain also joined in proclaiming Jordan's in dependence essential to Middle East peace.
 King Hussein spoke out against Communists, calling them "spies behind our lines"
 In low, solemn voice, the 21- year-old King sought to identify the forces which he blamed for the government crisis that has rocked Jordan for more than two weeks.
 Neighboring Syria and Egypt, meanwhile, were reported faced with a demand from Hussein that Syria pull out the 5000 troops it has in northern Jordan. They are there ostensibly to protect Jordan against Israel, but Western gov- ernments have feared they might be used to annex part of Jordan for Syria as a result of the king dom's unsettled condition.

port to and alleviate discom-
fort from varicose conditions
or enlarged veins.
The stockings will cost $4.95,
