UP) The New York Times said a po litical purge is taking place in Russia. A Paris dispatch from C. L. Sulzberger said evidence can be assembled showing at least 300. 000 members have been expelled from the Communist party and that membership in the Kom somol Communist Youth League has fallen. The Times listed several Im portant party leaders as having disappeared quietly. These in cluded: N. A. Voznesensky, former Po litburo member. A. A. Kuznetzov, central com mittee secretary. P. S. Popkov, member of the Presideum of the supreme Soviet. Yuri A. Zhdanov, son of the late Politburo chief. I. T. Golyakov, former chief of the Soviet Supreme Court. Sulzberger said it appeared those now suffering were mem bers of the so-called "Zhdanov faction," persons who were close to or followed the line of Andrei Zhdanov who died Aug. 31, 1948, at 52. The cause of his death was listed officially as heart failure, but there were world-wide rum ors that he had been "liquidated." He had been Stalin's favorite and regarded as the generalissimo's most likely successor. However, the Times said, he had fallen from favor before his death and had been replaced by his reputed rival Georgl M. Mal-enkov. Judge Halts Welfare Aid To Crime Culprit SEATTLE June 7.

Gomez Almodovar Faustino knows only one word of English "gimme. The nea picker from Gurabo. Puerto Rico, used it frequently af ter he got himself handcuffed ac cidentally to the seat of a plane. raustlno, with other pea pick ers, was en route on the plane to Walla Walla, Wash. On Faustino's seat was fastened one end of the cuffs used on a passenger in a previous flight. Faustino began playing with the other end of the cuffs and promptly closed it on his wrist. His friends tugged. The pilot tried to help. So when the plane landed here police were called. They tried a big bunch of keys, but none worked. The pilot said he couldn't fly on, saying some thing that there was a law against having passengers fastened to public carriers. All the time Faustino was us ing the only English word he knew. Between strings of Spanish, he woi'ld Insert the word "gimme." Police finally freed Faustino with a pair of bolt, cutters and took him to the police garage. Here mechanics tried more keys, pliers, bobby pins. No luck. Faustino now was down to one word: "Gimme." . I Finally a locksmith was rout ed out of bed. He fashioned a spe cial key and the lock flew open. Faustino smiled, rubbed his wrist and with a string of "gimmes" joined his companions on the plane three hours later.

Russia has rejected the western powers' plan for a Germany unit ed under the Bonn constitution adopted by the western zones of the country. France, Britain and the United States have turned down the Sov iet Union's proposal for an all German state council to handle economic and "government" mat ters subject to veto by a revived four-power control agency. One nation could dictate a veto. There Is no surprise In these developments. In her self-imposed Isolation. Russia sometimes mis judges the likolv western response to ner moves. But sne must have had no illusion that the West would accent German unity of the sort she might propose. The plan she actually offered at Paris was not even taken seriously as a pro gram for unity. Russia Needs Trade By the same token, the western nations must have had no genu ine hope that Russia would ac cept the Bonn constitution as a basis for cementing all Germany. It would mean un-Russian free doms In the eastern zone, plus a merciless spotlight on Soviet ac tivities there. If these things are so, why did Russia seek the Paris conference? Western spokesmen believe the continuing sessions will show her true goals to be much more lim ited than the basic German is sues. They think she wants better East-West economic arrange ments in Germany. The Soviet zone suffered badly from the west ern counter-blockade; it needs j western trade. 1 Other relatively minor gains may come out of the conference. And Russia is of course not blind to its value as a propaganda springboard. No Will to Agree We have learned from the dis cussion thus far that the lifting of the Berlin blockade marked no drastic shift in Russia's policy or attitude toward the West. For eign Minister Vishinskv may smile and clown, but his words are no more conciliatory than were Molotov's at London 18 months ago. To reach an accord among na tions, as among individuals, you must first have a will to agree on the part of all. There is no sign whatsoever that Russia de sires agreement on fundamentals in Germany. 1T,rnH i, AlA 1 1-1 L ..veil ii sue uiu, uiuie cuum ue little confidence of major progress unoer present circumstances.
