agency that transmits everything
I aay to Russia."
The conference was attended by
accredited members of the senate
press gallery, including Jesn Mont-
omery, representative of the Sov

"The chase was not very satis

"But I did follow the other car

Longley-Cook who is 51. was ap

He was a veteran of both world

A spokesman for the ministry
of supply disclosed last Wednes
day Britain ia planning the con
struction of atomic energy plants
for ships.
The spokesman aid not aay
whether it waa a naval project.
but aaid the atomic engine would
be amall enough to be carried by
a destroyer.
As director or naval Intelligence
Longley-Cook presumably would be
in charge of security for any such
project Involving the British ad
miralty. The ministry of supply spokes
man ssid the cabinet will be asked
to study plana for the aeagoing
atomic engines within the next two
months.
This waa taken to indicate that
the plana are pretty well along the
way to final blueprints, but it waa
estimated that it would take two
years to build the engines.

Dies Of Cancer
WASHINGTON; Feb. 11 MV
Howard Dobson, 36, Associated
Press congressional reporter, died
last night at Mt. Alto Veterans'
hospital here.
Dobson, born in Lake City, Iowa,
was stricken last fall and entered
the hospital shortly before Christ
mas. He was unanimously elected
vice-president of the Washington
Newspaper guild while in the hos
pital. Doctors told him just before he
entered Mt. Alto that he had but
two montha to live.
"Dobby" took It with courage
and amazing outward aerenity.
AP Columnist Jamea Mario
wrote what a lot of Dobson's
friends felt Christmas eve, though
he didn't use Dotby's name. May
be you remember that column:
"A man in my office haa cancer.
He's 36. a veteran, married, with
two children, one 12, one 9. He's
been buying a home in the woods
aeven miles from Washington . . .
"I went to see him the other
day. He knew life waa being chew
ed away inside him. He had lost
weight until he looked like the
ghost of a ghost. His right arm
was useless, his left arm almost
uselsss ...
"He looked at the bright win
dow and through it at the bright
trees outside, stirring in the crisp
winter wind. 'It's beautiful outside,'
he said. It was his way of saying:
That's the world out there, I love
being alive in it, but I may not
be out in it much again."
Well, this is the follow up to
Harlow's column. Dobson ia dead.
There wasn't anything that mon
ey or doctors could do.

Record In Congress. Rather
Than Platform, To Count With
Voters. Republicans Assert
WASHINGTON .1") President
down again this election year on the Republicans' lawmaking record
not what they aay.
Mr. Truman told his newa conference he thinks the Republicans'
record speaks better for itself than any platform they can write.
Strangely enough, there were Republicans who agreed with him.
A reporter told Mr. Truman a
statement of principlea issued by
the Republicsns this week had
picked "liberty vs. socialism" aa
the chief issue for their campaign
to gain control of Congress in the
November voting.
Which waa the president for?
The newsman asked.
Mr. Trumsn said he had read
the GOP platform but didn't un
derstand it, adding tnat it s me
Republicans' record that will tell
the story to the voters in this
year'a congressional elections.
In his 19411 campaign for the
presidency, Mr. Truman made a
great point ot wnat ne rauea me
bad record of the Republican dom
inated 90th Congress.
Mr. Truman's 1950 statement,
that it is the record which counts,
found agreement among some Re
publicans, particularly those dis
satisfied with their party's state
ment.
Senator Ives (R-NY), who voted
against the declaration, told a re
porter that he, too, believes the Re
publicans must stand on what thev
do in Congress and not on any
promises they make in a statement
of principles.
"However, I don't agree with the
president if he is belittling the
danger to the country of the ad
ministration's present drift toward
socialism," Ives said.
Record Will Count
Senator Hendrickson (R-NJ), an
other critic of the GOP atatement,
said he thinks people will psy more
attention to the Republican rec
ord in Congress than they will to
any party declaration.
"The average voter is going to
take what you do rather than what
you ssy as indicating your real
stand," he said.
There hss been doubt that many
of the Republicans running for na
tional omce uiis lau win iohow
the new platform closely in their
campaigns.
However, Senator Brewster of
Maine, chairman of the GOP sena
torial campaign committee, ssid
he thinks that 80 percent of the Re
publicans will support 80 percent
of the declaration. He added that
ia about as good aa anyone can
expect.
"I think the declaration marks a
real advance in the developn.ent
of Republican policy," the Maine
senator said.
Senator Lucas of Illinois, the
Democrstie leader, pooh-poohed the

Truman apparently intends to bear
Republican attack on what the GOP
called Democratic "socialism."
"That ia all a lot of political ho
kum but it isn't going to fool the
voters," Lucaa declared.
Hearing Aid Batteries .

Police Chief Calvin H. Baird re
ported that Mrs. Harold Sanders,

"The influx of population to our

Soviet Charges
Denied By U. N.
LAKE SUCCESS. Feb. 11. UP)
A spokesman for U. N. Secre
tary General Trygve Lie has de
nied Russian charges that the FBI
is using certain U. N. oiiiciaia 10
obtain informaiton.
The charges were made by Soviet
Delegate Jakob A. Malik, who im
plied in a letter to Lie that As
sistant U. N. Secretary General
Byron Price, wartime chief U. S.
censor, was one of the FBI sources.
Declaring that Lie haa full con
fidence in Price, the U. N. spokes-
msn said "no responsible official
of the secretariat ia 'used' by the
FBI for obtaining infr-mation con
cerning the internal affairs of the
secretariat as alleged in Mr. Ma
lik s letter."
Price told to newsmen to tele
phone that "The atatement on be
half of Mr. Lie covers the matter."
The spokesman said Lie ia study
ing the records of the espionage
trial in New York of Valentin Gubi
chev and Judith Coplon to check
Malik'a atatement that testimony
had proved the FBI had tapped
telephone conversations of Gubi-
chev and other U. N. employes.
10-Day Court Order
Issued In Coal Strike
(Continued from page One)
has been enforcing in the mines,
forbidden.
There was no immediate reac
tion from the UMW on either court
order.
A spokesman at the union head
quarters said only:
Lewis Answer Awaited
"We're waiting to hear from Mr.
Lewis."
The temporary restraining order
covera four main points:
These would enjoin the union
against continuing the strike "in
whole or in part;' direct the union
to order the workers to cesse their
strike immediately; enjoin both
sides against encouraging or caus
ing lockouts, strikes or work stop
pages; and order the UMW and
the operators to engage in free col
lective bargaining in good faith for
the purpose of resolving the dis
pute.
Inclusion of the operators in the
bargaining and lockout provisions
made the order a double barreled
one.
Lewis, the union, and all its "ap
propriate officers" are directed to
"forthwith instruct, and take all
appropriate action as may be
necessary ' to see that the court s
orders are carried out.
Emergency Injunction
Assistant Attorney General H.
Graham Morrison applied to fed
eral Judge Richmond B. Keech for
an emergency injunction as pro
vided for in the Taft-Hartley act
when the national health and safe
ty ia threatened.
The application followed right on
the heels of another injunction or
der signed bv Judge Keech direct
ing Lewis to drop four major de
mands in nis negotiations.
Judge Keech said there is a prob
ability that these demands are "un
fair labor practices."
The injunction already signed re
strains John L. Lewis and his
United Mine Workers from insist
ing on those bargaining pointa un
til such time as the National Labor
Relations board can rule
whether they actually are unfair
taoor practices.
Some 7.000 plant diseases cause
enough dsmage to be considered
economically important.

More Fresh Vegetables
More fresh vegetables are ex
pected to be available, although
fewer onions and less cabbage.
Generally speaking there will be
around 14 percent more fresh vege
tables thin in 1949.
There will be fewer chicken,
and possibly a reduction in milk,
ice cream and butter. But there
will be more turkeys, and more
eggs.
Expressed in food value,, the
nutritionists sum it up this way:
You will get about two percent
more of the goods that make energy
and about the aame amount of
the atuff that provides important
vitamins.
But the nutritionists don't like
the milk situation. They aaid less
whole milk and cream is being
used for the fifth consecutive year
and this is reducing the amount
of calcium in the American diet.
Calcium ia a mineral people need
for teeth, bones and other body
equipment.
