IL INDICATED stubborn debate
and the toughest sort of bar
gaining has been going on over
the past two weeks in a Com
munist summit meeting in
Moscow.
Although some sort of COM
promise may be worked out to
present to the outside world as
a show of Soviet Chinese unity,
there seemed little doubt the
Russians were telling Popping
that Moscow intends to con-
tinue Mr.. Khrushchev's policies.
These are keyed to his de-
mands for Punishment of nu-
clear weapons, disarmament
and what Moscow calls peace
full coexistence."
Only two days ago the official
Peoples Daily of Peiping, in an
evident attack on Soviet Pre-
mier Khrushchev's theories of
peaceful coexistence. declared it
was an illusion to think COM
munism can get along with i'm
perialism.
Would Ban Alarms
Peiping called for all-out
Communist backing for revolu-
tionary movements in under
developed countries. It urged,
however, in a seeming mood for
compromise, that Communists
turn the possibility of avert
ing world war into a reality"
The Pravada article also de-
clared that banishing nuclear
weapons still was a controlling
principle in Soviet policy.

1.-THE talks between the rep

informal basis" the commu-
nique said.
They covered a broad range
OF financial and economic ques-
tons including balance of pay
ment problems, assistance to
developing countries, interna-
tional trade and related prob
lens of mutual interest"
The communique said that in
view OF the special responsible
ity Of the United States and
Germany in the field of inter-
national financial and none
tary policy. primary attention
was given the international
payments position which at
present is affected by a number
OF factors. including q con-
tinuing deficit in the balance
OF payments Of the United
States and a substantial sur
plus in the balance Of payments
in Germany"
The two governments said
the discussions made clear
that both the United States
and Germany were deter
mined to maintain strength
and confidence in the financial
structure Of the free world
which underlies the common
defense and the Atlantic Al
lance"
$500 Million Not Mentioned
The communique did not
mention the $500 million,
which caused the most serious
disagreement.
The United States wanted
West Germany to make that
sum available in 1861 to offset
the $700' million it spends on
maintaining United States
troops in West Germany.
The communique said West
Germany decided to embark
on a new foreign aid program
by making available next year
between three and four bill
lion marks ($720 and 1858
million).

He found Mr.. Davidson dead

Expansion Moves
BY BURTON HAWKINS
Star stan Writer

A legal maneuver which
could block beleagured Ameri-
can League expansion plans
for next season and conceiv-
ably flip Calvin Grifhth's
transferred team back into
Washington for 1861 has been
taken by attorneys for H. Ga
briel Murphy, 40 per cent
stockholder in the club which
was granted league permission
to shift to Minneapolis-St.
Paul.
Murphy's lawyers have ap-
pealed the October "a decision
of Judge George L. Hart, jr..
of District Court that the
Washington club was free to
transfer its franchise without
approval of two-thirds of its
stockholders. Legal ramiflca-
tions, according to neutral at
torneys, may be sufficient to
snarl all expansion action
taken or considered by the
American League.
Had 30 Days to Appeal
What the American League
has DONE" one lawyer said. sis
analogous to a man involved
in divorce proceedings getting
married before his divorce has
become final. I am astounded
that the American League
would have moved so swiftly,
before Murphy's appeal limit
had expired"
Murphy had 80 days to ap-
peal the decision of the District
Court. His attorneys waited
until virtually the last moment,
filing an appeal with the United
States Circuit Court Of Appeals
late yesterday. Murphy, WASH
ington insurance executive who
previously had stated he would
retain his stock in the club
switched to the Twin Cities. was
not available for comment.
Whether Murphy ultimately
wins or loses the appeal isn't
as vital at the moment as the
fact that he has appealed. At
torneys said it will be at least
go days before briefs will be
filed and that the case may not
be reviewed for several months.
Entanglements Possible
This places the American
League, if it cares to proceed
with expansion plans, in a po-
sition to be liable for legal
action if Murphy's appeal should
be upheld. If the league per-
mits Griffith's team to remain
in Minneapolis as planned and
Murphy wins his appeal, the
league will be immersed in en-
tanglementS.
The appeal could provide the
National League, now being be-
seeched by the American to
join it in fielding nine teams
and participate in inter-league
play, the perfect excuse for fail
ing to go along with its buffeted
rival circuit. 1t could plead
that it doesn't care to become
welded to a lawsuit.
The fact that Murphy has
struck out in previous actions
against Griffith isn't as i'm
portant as the fact that he
still is swinging at time when
most observers believed him to
be out of the ball game. His

Since then, Floyd has ap-

been hits-records by Jim

It was a Hank Locklin hit

Fishermen Report
Top State Catches

With the continua a ton of
warm pleasant weather, fishing
is expected to take the spotlight
in Delaware.
The marine fisheries statistics
survey being carried out by the
Game and Fish Commission is
in full swing. All areas of the
State are being surveyed in re-
gard to fish caught by both
commercial and sports fisher
men. From reports gathered
thus far, many sports fishermen
have been out trying their new
equipment or just getting their
old favorite rod and reel ready
for the oncoming season.
Thus far few game fish have
been taken with hook and line.
However, perch, rock, carp and
catfish have been taken from
many areas of the State. The
tidal streams leading inland
seem to be the areas where
these fish are being found in
abundance. Perch, the most
common of the fish being taken
by the hook and line fisherman,
are being caught in practically
all of the small streams from
Delaware City to Mispillion
