U. N. General Assembly
Ends 18th Session Today

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y. Up
The U. N. General Assembly re-
cessed its turbulent 18th session
early today after approving a
resolution requiring all members
to share in the cost of the 1860
U. N. Congo operation.
The Soviet Union vigorously
opposed the plan. 1t made it plain
it would defy the assembly ma
jority by refusing to supply any
part of the $48.5
The assembly also authorized
Secretary-General Dag Hammar-
skiold to spend up to $24 million
for the Congo operation during
the first three months of 1861.
The Donation assembly adj
journed at 1857 a. m. to begin a
11-week recess that will end
March 7.
The stormy three-month session,
which opened Sept. 20, was not
able chiefly for the visit of Soviet
Premier Khrushchev and the
Soviet campaign against Ham
marskjold.
The final hours were devoted
mostly to budgetary and other
housekeeping questions, but the
crucial issues raised during the
session persisted.
Although the assembly defer
red action on many issues, it did
make several positive decisions,
including:
l. 1t called for steps to bring
"to a speedy and unconditional
end of colonialism in all its forms
and manifestations"
2. It declared the Algerian
people have the right to indie
pendence and the United Nations
has responsibility to help bring
it about.
3. 1t called on the nuclear
powers to make every effort to
reach an agreement banning fur
Their nuclear test explosions. 1t
also called for permanent agree
ment to prevent dissemination of
nuclear weapons to countries
which do not have them.

East, Midwest Hit
By Snowstorms;
Hot in California
BIZ The Associated Press

This first day of winter found
Californians basking in mid-80
degree temperatures and in South
Dakota the mercury dipped to 20
below zero.
At least Is deaths were attrib-
uted to stormy weather, which
erupted in the plains and spread
eastward rapidly. The storm
deaths included seven in Illinois,
five in Ohio, three in Michigan
and one in Missouri.
The blustery, snowy cold spread
from the eastern Rockies into the
northeast in the wake of snow
storm which left foot-high falls
in the Midwest.
The temperature scared to 86
degrees at Miramar, Calf, yester-
day and the sunshine boosted the
thermometer into the 80s again
today.
Yesterdays 81 in Los Angeles
was the Warmest Dec. 20 since
1888.
In upstate New York the snow
fall continued today with the new
fall in the northern portion up to
8 inches and inches in the Buff
falo area.
In Ohio, the snow accumulated
up to 10 inches, disrupting traf-
fic and normal activities through
out the state.
The broad blanket of snow in
the Midwest, plus strong shift
ing winds and sharp drops in tenn
peratures, made it look and feel
like midwinter before the official
arrival of winter at 327 p. m.
EST today
1t was 13 below zero in Aber-
deem, S. D., and the subzero sting
was felt in northern Illinois with
2 below in Rockford, Chicago,
covered with a record prewinter
snow carpet of 1212 inches,
shivered in near-zero readings.

Canada RevOkes
Tax Concessions
To Foreigners

OTTAWA Up = The Canadian
government has wiped out all
special tax concessions for foreign
investors in an effort to slow
down foreign investment in
Canada.
In a special budget message to
the House of Commons last night,
Finance Minister Donald Flem-
ming decreed a raise from to Is
per cent tax on all dividends paid
to u. S. and other foreign owners
of stock in Canadian companies
or Canadian government bonds.
U. S. investors will be hit par
ticularly by the new regulations
The U. S. Commerce Department
on Dec. II estimated that Ameri-
cans invest So billion annually in
overseas branches, subsidiaries
and affiliates. More than one
third of this goes to Canada, the
department said.
In Washington, U. S. Treasury
officials said the Canadian move
might prompt similar steps by the
United States against Canadian
investments here, but added it
was too early to make any def
mite statement.
Officially, the Treasury took
the position trait the matter was
an internal affair of Canada's
and the u. S. Government would
have no comment.
Flemming said industrial de-
velopment in Canada has been &C
celebrated by foreign investment
but the time has come to help the
Canadian economy achieve an i'm
proved equilibrium with the out
side world.
AS a result of special conces-
sions for foreign capital, he said,
the position that the matter was
"non-residents profiting from in
vestment in Canada do not always
bear their fair share of the gener-
al costs of government and admin
istration, although they benefit in
full measure from them"
Canada faces $286-million
budget deficit for the fiscal year
ending March 81, instead of the
$12 million surplus he predicted
last March, F1emming said.

Reds Charge Destroyer
Makes Mock Attack
On Soviet Freighter

MOSCOW up - The Soviet
Union has charged a U. S. des-
troyer made an hour-long mock
attack on Soviet freighter in
the Mediterranean Nov. S, almost
causing a collision.
In protest note delivered to
the U. S. Embassy yesterday, the
Russians demanded severe pun
ishment for those guilty of the
provocative actions.
The note identified the des-
troyer as No. BIT. The USS Cory.
The freighter, The Faleshty,
was enroute to Odessa from Mar
seille, France, the note said, when
the destroyer made several turns
nearby and then approached.
when the u. S. Destroyer was
at distance of 70 to 80 meters
from the motorship and continued
approaching it, the captain of the
motorship had to stop the engines
to prevent a collision" the note
asserted.

Eisenhower Said to Have
Told Douglas Dillon Not
To Join Kennedy Cabinet

DIES MONIES, Iowa Up - Re-
publican Douglas Dillon, Secre-
tary of the Treasury in the Ken
nedy Administration, was told
in forceful language by Presi-
dent Eisenhower not to accept the
appointment, two midwest news
papers said today.
The Des Moines Register & Tri-
bune and the Minneapolis Tribune
& Star said in copyright story
from their Washington bureau
correspondent Richard Wilson:
ct is learned that both the
President and Treasury Secretary,
Robert Anderson told Dillon in a
forceful and firm fashion that he
should not accept the post unless
he got firm commitment from
Kennedy that the President-elect
was repudiating the Democratic
platform and statements on fiscal
policy made during the cam
paign."
The story said the acceptance
by Dillon, Undersecretary of State
in the Eisenhower Administration,
came as a surprise to the Presi-
dent, to Anderson and to Vice
President Nixon.
Earlier this week White House
Press Secretary James Hagerty
declined comment on a report that
Eisenhower was annoyed because
Dillon accepted the incoming
Democratic Administration job.

Navy Officers
Tour Fire-Ravaged
Constellation

NEW YORK Up - A Navy court
of inquiry today toured the air
craft carrier Constellation, raw
aged in a fire that did an esti-
mated $75 million damage and
claimed 48 lives.
The spectacle that confronted
the party was one of devastation.
Decks buckled weirdly from the
heat of the fire. Walls were black
ened and bent, ceilings were
charred and sagged in places. The
ships wiring system appeared in
ruins.
The high Navy officers went
aboard about $3.50 a. m. and re-
manned for more than two hours
moving through the fire-razed
passageways and compartments
Of the 1,O40-foot long, 60,000-ton
ship.
About SO reporters and photo
graphers were given short tour
through the ship. They were al
lowed to shoot movie film of
damaged areas, some of which
had been death chambers for
workmen trapped by the fire.
Meanwhile, in Washington, a
second Naval group, this one COM
posed of four technical experts,
will inquire into possible fire
hazards to ships under construc-
ton at Navy and private ship
yards" The Navy said the panel
will consider specifically the sub
stitution of metal for wooden
floors for staging or scaffolding,
among other things.
This was the center of the city's
criticism. Fire Commissioner Cav
anagh said there would have been
"a substantial difference in the
intensity and extent of the fire"
if metal rather than wooden
scaffolding had been used. The
fire department requires the use
of metal scaffolding on city pier
projects, but the Constellation
was being built at the Brooklyn
Navy Yard and was out of the
city's jurisdiction.

Court Refuses
"Tiny" Eckman
HellenthaI Honeymoon

JUNEAU Up - Grant II. Eek
man, Nome forger now serving
a prison term at Mcneil Island
penitentiary, yesterday lost his
court fight to obtain the states
first "Hellenthal Honeymoon"
Superior Court Judge James
Won der Heydt granted motion
by the state to quash petition
for writ of mandamus filed by
Eckman which would have forced
Alaska to give him week-long
prisoner leave Immediately.
Gary Thurlow of the State At
torney Generals office told the
court the Legislature made it
very clear the leaves were to be
permitted as a privilege and not
a right. Eckman was not present
in court, nor was he represented
by counsel.
Eckman, 40, cook, had claimed
his good record at Mcneil Island
since his confinement there last
February gave him the right to a
prisoner leave.
In asking for the leave, Eckman
did not say where he intended
to spend his leave, if he obtained
one. His prison record indicates
he has been married five times
and has children living outside of
Alaska.
Eckman is serving a five-year
term for forgery. He is eligible for
parole in February, 1862.
The week-long prisoner leaves
were tagged with the name "Hel-
lenthal Honeymoon" after the
man who introduced the legisla-
ton which permits them, state
Rep. John Hellenthal of Anchor
age.

Among the scant handful Of

Many people think that the
