Marshall, and clher key administration and con gressional leaders were said . to ‘e agreed that the Soviet Union jaQst be put on notice that the end of the road has been reached There was only a dim hope that the sharply-worded American note l0' Russia regarding Hungary would be answered satisfactorily. It was considered officially as on ly a logical move in the pattern of anticipated events leading up to UN action and a showdown with Russia. The note was in final form, but i; was not expected to be sent to the Soviet commander in Hungary until early next week. The United States was awaiting a reply on its request for all date included in the Soviet charges of “con spiracy” against former Premier Ferenc Nagy, Hungarian House Speaker Bela Varga, and Lela Kovacs, a former member of the Hungarian parliament. The American note as now draft ed will hint that the United States is prepared to take the Hungarian case to the UN unless the Sov iets can show cause for their con duct. It also will charge that in this government’s opinion Russia is guilty of violating the Yalta agreement providing for the sov ereignly of “liberated” countries. It will say that Russia overthrew :he former government by intimi dation and coercion. KANSAS CITY, Mo..

Army Officer Hears Appeal For Blood; Stops, Aids Child A United States Army officer traveling with his wife, who hap pened to hear a radio appeal for blood for an ill 18 months-old child at James Walker Memorial hospi tal yesterday, today were credit ed with furnishing the life giving fluid that is aiding her recovery. Baby Faye Wells, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Norman Wells, of near Burgaw, was suffering her second consecutive attack of ty phoid fever in James Walker hos pital's contagious ward. J. D. Lewis director of the hos pital’s blood bank had placed a call for blood donors of type 2 or A blood, needed to neutralize the infant's system. The Army officer, Maj. Donald E. Sowle and Mrs. Sowle, 3414 A S. Utah street, Arlington, Va., en route to Washington, D. C. from a Florida vacation heard Lewis’ appeal over the car’s radio. The couple was traveling on Market street here, and stopped at a gas station to ask the direc tion of the hospital. The call specified that the blood must come from a type 2 or A who had recently been vaccinated against the fever, or from the same type person who had recent ly suffered the fever. The major had been inoculated within six months. He was type 2 or A. Lewis took his blood, thanked him and wished him merrily on his way. Dr. A. McR. Crouse, infant specialist in Wilmington and Faye's doctor said that she was “responding nicely’’ to the trans fusion, and that the pint taken from the major will be enough for even another transfusion, in the event it becomes necessary. BLACK MARKET BABY PRICE UP $2,500 Reported Top Figure For Adop tions . . ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., -June 7 —UP)—Twenty-five hundred dollars is the price today for a black mar ket baby for adoption in New York city, and the practice, if not the high prices, covers the United States. This was reported to the Ameri can Society for the Study of Steril ity today by Drs. Abner I. Weis man, of New York city, Donald G. ToUefson of the University of Southern California, Los Angeles, and Miss Ruth F. Brenner, of the Free Synagogue Child Adop tion committee, New York city. Dr. Weisman said the price had risen about $1,000 for one baby in the past four months. Before that, in Brooklyn, he said a baby girl cost the new parents $1,500 and a boy $1,700. “My battle,” he said, “is against unscrupulous, dishonest, black market physicians who seek gain from unfortunate girls who have unwanted babies. “There are not many of these doctors. There are lawyers, who help them, although not many law yers either. They offer babies for adoption to the highest bidder, and the lawyers help under the table. PRO-RED DECLARATION LONDON, June 7— (TP) —1The Moscow radio said today that Pr:me Minister Pekkala of Finland had urged his countrymen "to ex pose disseminations of anti-Soviet propaganda and bring them to justice.” WALLACE SCORES TRAINING PLAN Cost Should B§ Used To Point Youth Toward Peace MONTGOMERY, Ala., June 7.— [IP)—Universal military training was scored by Henry Wallace to night as “one of the fruits of the Truman Doctrine’’ which Wallace said would “discourage Demo cratic, peace-loving peoples every where in the world.” The two billion dollars it would cost, he added, might better be used to point our youth toward peace rather than war. In an address prepared for de livery at Montgomery’s Cramton bowl, the former vice president de clared: “I don’t like war indoctrina tion. I don’t like the inevitable hookup between big business and big army expenditures. I don’t like the hookup between the big mules and the big brass. I don’t like the danger of a military-big business dictatorship when trouble comes. “If we use billions of dollars every year to produce munitions and train our boys for war, the day will come when a worse de pression than 1833 will overtake us. Cotton and wheat prices will fall faster than in the early thir ties.” Wallace said he would rather use the money the army has re quested for universal military training and military missions to foreign countries to promote “peace and prosperity, not tor war and depression. * f want us to use it to create markets overseas and at home in a way to help ordinary people . to train our youth for the excit ing jobs of peace, for the jobs of saving lives not destroying them.” STATE SCIENTIST SAYS COUNTY HIT BY DOWNY MILDEW RALEIGH, June 7—(U.R)—Dr. D. E. Ellis- -of' the plant pathology staff at North Carolina State col lege today advised farmers in southeastern North Carolina coun ties to begin dusting crops imme diately to combat cucurbit downy mildew on cucumber plants . Ellis said the mildew had been reported in New Hanover, Scot land and Pender counties. He ad vised growers in these and adja cent counties to begin dusting to keep the disease from spreading. Army Sources Reveal Revolutionary Type Of Rocket Using Secret Fuel That Is Smaller Than The V-2’s WASHINGTON, June 7 —(U.R)— Army sources revealed tonight that a revolutionary new type of rocket engine, using a new secret fuel, is under development at the Solar Aircraft corporation factory in San Diego, Cal. The new rocket is a vastly im proved version of the WAC cor poral, an American-designfed rock et developed secretly during World War n by the army and scientists at the California Institute of Tech nology. Army engineers said the new rocket embodies new principles of construction that will facilitate mass production.

RENTAL FREEZE PI N PROPOSED Would Affect Government Housing In Wilmington Wilmington Star-News Washington Bureau WASHINGTON, June 7 — Legis lation freezing rents in govern ment-owned housing at January, 1947, levels, may be enacted next week as an amendment to the Wolcott bill for sale of the prop erty,Representative Joseph R. Bryson of Greenville, S. C., said today. Bryson is endorsing the rent freeze originally proposed by Rep resentative L. Mendel Rivers of Charleston* S. C. Two Hillcrest developments at Wilmington, Jackson Homes at Charlotte, Camp Croft Courts at Spartanburg, S. C., and Kiawah Homes at Charleston are among the war housing developments to be offered for sale under the Wol cott Bill, which will come up for House action about Tuesday or Wednesday. A vote, expected Fri day of this week, was postponed, by other legislation. In each case, the cities have applied for free transfer of the property for continued use as low rent housing, but this disposal method would be forbidden by the bill, requiring sale of all per manent war h^asing by December 31, 1948. C. OF C. ADOPTS TRADE PRACTICE International Group Favors ‘Proved Princi ples’ MONTREUK, Switzerland, June 7—(TP)—The International Chamber i of Commerce adopted a resolu tion today providing that countries engaging in state production and , trading operations should be guid ed by ‘‘the proved principles of Commercial operation.” > These principles were listed as: state enterprise should be financial ly autonomous, it should be taxed the same as the private enter prise, employees should be given ; renumeration and opportunities for promotion comparable to those of private enterprise, management should not be selected for political considerations and prices should be similar to those of private en terprises.

Newly-developed high tempera- , ture alloys cut the weight of the engine by 500 pounds and speed 1 up the manufacturing process. The ] weight reduction gives the rocket i a greater explosive carrying ca- 1 pa city.

Cites Miracle Recovery Of Six From Leprosy STATE ESCAPEE FIGHTS RETURN North Carolina Fugitive Had Business In Idaho BOISE, Idaho, June 7 —(JP)—The 11-year freedom of Frank Stuart, who established a small cafe at the tiny town of Wh | ebird in cen tral Idaho after he fled from the North Carolina State prison, will be at stake in an extradition hear ing before Gov. Robins Monday or Tuesday, Stuart, 43, now known as Perry Lee in the community of 250 per sons where he settled after mar rying and becoming the father of two sons, demanded the hearing after a North Carolina prison of ficer sought to return him to com plete a six-to-eight year sentence for a $112 armed robbery.

She had been walking ahead of him. Engineer J. C. Tripp said he saw Mrs. Housley lift the child from the stroller ar.d stand mo tionless with him in her arms. Two occupants of a car said she apparently became confused in the excitement. The child was the son of the Rev. and Mrs. Joseph Henry Haines. The father is a missionary in Chungking, China. SNYDER’S MOTHER-IN-LAW DIES WASHINGTON, June 7—(U.PO—A spokesman for Secretary of the Treasury John W. Snyder said to night the cabinet member’s moth er-in-law, Mrs. R. F. Cook, died today at her home in Blytheville, Ark., after a long illness. ; NEW ORLEANS, June 7—OJ.PO— The story of the miraculous re covery of six persons slowly dying from leprosy who were saving by the use of a sulfone derivative, promin, was told in New Orleans today by Dr. Eric A. Fennell, a member of the board at the Lepro sarium in the settlement at Kalau prpa, Molokai, in the Hawaiian island. Fennell is in New Orleans to con fer with scientists of the National Leprosarium at Carville, La. Fennell said six persons from the settlement were selected for the test. They were going blind. Three had tracheal tubes in their throats to enable them to breathe. A year later, with the use of promin, which had been intro duced in the successful treatment of leprosy at the Carville, La., in stitution years befote, all had good sight. “The three who had worn tracheal tubes breathe naturally and have thrown them away. The results of the drugs have been miraculous,” he said. Fennell said, “the results of both promin and diasone on scores of others have been so astounding that we can hardly believe it. However, neither is a cure for leprosy. But they present a chal lenge to the medical profession. Other drugs are following, and then it won’t much matter where a leprosarium will be located ,at sea level or in the mountains.” Fennell is a Cincinnati born and education pathologist who took up his studies of leprosy as a hobby. POLICE STALK WOMAN ON LEDGE Threatens To Jump From Atop Strand Theater NEW YORK, June 7 — (JP) — As hundreds watched on Broadway, police today stalked a 46-year-old woman atop the Strand theater and grabbed her before she could plunge 100 feet to the street. Police said a four-foot abutment separated them from the woman as she stood on a ledge, and she warned that “if you come near me, I’ll jump.” But while two cops pleaded with her to change her mind, a third approached from the side and seized her. Identified by police as Mrs. Helen Davidson, a commercial art ist who had an office in the thc_ tei building, she was taken to Bellevue hospital for observation. Army research experts said the new rocket is a small missile in comparison with the German V-2. It weighs less than 600 pounds compared with the V-2’s 14 tons. But they say they can build larger models if necessary that may surpass the V-2 in perform ance. The V-2 has reached an alti tude of 144 miles. The army experts constantly are revising the specifications of the rocket as they strive to make im provements. Some of these im provements are based on tests of the V-2 at the White Sands, N. M.. proving ground. The new rocket carries a para chute in its nose. The chute is released at the peak of flight and carries the rocket and its instru ments for testing the stratosphere safely back to earth. I he new pressed sheet steel mo tors have passed hydraulic tests and proven satisfactory in firing tests at White Sands. Military men say the saving in cost is important because the expense of building rockets has been one of the fac tors holding back development. The WAC corporal previously carried instruments to an altitude of 100,000 feet. The new rocket has still greater range, although the army would not reveal the figures. The first WAC corporal rocket was launched in October, 1945. • r* ■ Eye-Witness Flood Story Both Humorous, Pathetic; Recall Big Twister Of 1924 Killing Storms Reach Into Hagerstown, Maryland, Near Nation’s Capital; Roofs Blow Off; Damage Heavy BY WILLIAM L. EBEKLINE OTTUMWA, la., June 7 —(JP)—11 took a tour around Ottumwa to day—by motorboat. Traffic was heavy at times. We had to dodge a floating automo bile once. Other objects in the wa ter of Ottumwa’s main streets kept us on the alert. I saw water flowing through second story windows of some houses and up to the eaves of others. I also learned that many of the city’s residents have a sense of humor, eveti in the face of tragedy and disaster. My two companions in the boat had been doing rescue work for more than 36 hours and one had spent the night perched in a tree and the other on a shed. The flood waters in some spots were very swift, foaming white around obstacles. The navy esti mated the current’s flow at 25 to 30 miles per hour. A_1 ji « And there were humorous scenes, too. There was a car park ed at the curb, doors open, water pouring through up to the wind shield. On top was a folding chair (unoccupied). and prominently displayed a “for sale” sign. Not every one wanted to be rescued. We found two boys, 14 and 16, perched on a roof top, the wat^r three or four feet below them. They had sandwiches snd water, .and gaily declined an offer to be taken off. John Madden, in whose boat I was riding, had one boat capsize under him last night. He spent the night on top of a shed with the river roaring through it. Madden told me that our com panion, Harold Brown, had res cued five persons last night when their boat capsized near his. ■ Brown swam to the spot and was , able to help get the five to a radio tower where they could hang on until another boat could ■ pick them up, Madden said. With [ no room left on the radio tower Brown climbed into a tree for the night. 1 Madden and Brown returned ■ cheerfully to their rescue work , this morning. _ BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Floods and tornadoes made new destructive assaults Saturday that caused at least 17 deaths, left more than 16,000 homeless and brought many thousands of dollars of property damage. While swollen rivers spilled over their banks in Iowa, Missouri, Il linois, Ohio, Indiana, Nebraska and Kansas, a tornado struck in Pennsylvania and Ohio. The new tornado, which killed at least six persons and injured more than 100 others, came on the heels of similar twisters Fri day night in Illinois, Colorado, Ok lahoma anj Missouri. The flood danger continued to grow, meanwhile, with the U. S. weather bureau forecasting a ma jor Mississippi river flood from Keokuk, la., to Quincy, 111., and Hannibal, Mo. Flood warnings al> so were issued for the Missouri river from St. Joseph, Mo., to Kansas City and below. A tornado which cut a path through the heart of Sharon.

Those five minutes snuffed out 70 lives and brought damage estimat ed at $35,000,000. Pedestrians were hurled bodily through the streets. Automobiles, utility poles, trees, roofs and dis play signs were twisted into mas ses of worthless junk. Eight churches in the stricken area were crushed and five schools demolished. Nearly 200 business establishments were de stroyer and 500 homes smashed. The business district, homes, schools, churches and industries were re-constructed and today a visitor to this bustling lake port of more than 50,000 wouldn’t find a scar of Lorain’s “Black Satur day.” LEGION HONORS FIVE CITY BOYS Will Attend 10-Day Con vention At U.

Anderson Promises Action For ‘House* holds’ WASHINGTON, June 7 —(JPh~ Secretary of Agriculture Anderson said today that “we’ll get out of sugar rationing, as far as house hold consumption is concerned, as quickly as possible.” He appeared before the House Banking committee to testify on two bills—one calling for elimina tion of all sugar rationing for home consumption, the other giving pri ority on sugar to those using it for home canning purposes. Anderson told the committee: "We will know in a short time the total quantity of sugar which we will receive from Cuba and oth er sources. “We also will have a better indi cation of the quantity of sugar the consumer is taking under the pres ent ration rates. As soon as these factors indicate that there is suf ficient sugar to do so, we shall remove all restrictions on sugar for household use.” SIX DIE IN CRASH PRAGUE, June 7—(7P)—At least six persons were killed today in the headon collision of two trains in Vmohrad tunnel, the passage for trains entering Woodrow Wilson station from suburban Prague.
