Tuesday that any delay in Congressional action on defense mea sures would "delay the whole preparation" of defense of Western Europe. In a statement made at a news conference in Paris, Elsenhower said: "Anything done which would indicate reluctance on the part of any country to get into this pool of cold water would delay the whole prepa ration of defense. "My concern is that each nation should show Its full readiness to co operate." While the Senate Voted... .. to go on record against sending more than four U. S. divisions to Europe without future action by Congress.

Communists in Iran .. . . . gave evidence Tuesday of moving behind the scenes to capitalize on Iran's oil nationalization crisis. Up to now the violent outbreaks in the crisis have been attributed mostly to extreme nationalists. A military government source disclosed that two leftists agitators, one a member of the Iranian Association of the Partisans of Peace, a Communist front organization, were arrested in a southern oil field Mon day. The Communist newspaper Bcsoye Anyendeh reported that the Peace Partisans and the "Persian Freedom Society" sent the two men us dele gates to look over the situation in the southern oil fields where thous ands of oil workers are striking for higher wages amid increased pres sure to end British control of the Anglo-Iranian oil company, the only oil producing company in Iran.

In a statement hailing the third anniversary of the Marshall Plan, the President said economic recovery in Western Europe has been "substan tially achieved." "However,” he added, "with the present threat to world peace, new tasks have been imposed upon us.

Arthur Court with a pair of duo-pi-! anists, Pierre Luboachutz and Genia I Nemenoff. Beginning with the noted pianist, [ Artur Rubinstein, the concert series went through a tenor (Giuseppi di ! Stefano), a colored male chorus (De ; Paur Infantry Chorus), a mezzo-! soprano (Blanche Thebom), a vio-! linist (Ruggiero Ricci), and an1 opera (The Wagner Opera Com pany in "The Barber of Seville”),! The Association will end this year's ' concerts with the duo-pianists, the Luboshutzes in private life. The two work on the theory that! if one piano can be made to sound like an orchestra, two pianos have 1 even more ability in that direction., At first the pair had an entirely different idea—that they should try to approximate each other's tone* as nearly as possible- but after a year of experimentation, they changed their minds and decided to blend their individual differences rather than imitate—a real orches tral idea worked out entirely by the touch of each pianist. After working alone many hours to memorize the music, Luboshutz and Miss Nemenoff then work many hours together to interpret the desired result. They don’t al ways agree, but they generally ar rive at some compromise. Being husband and wife, they say they seem to be almost mystically "in tune” with each other, and Pierre Luboshutz comments, "Be fore Genia starts to play, something happens inside of me, and I know what she will do . . .” Campus Interviews on Cigarette Tests Number 16...the harlequin duck “I may be a clown—but I’m no fool! y y H, e might be the merry-andrew of the marshlands, hut lately lie's been downright glum about these trick cigarette mildness tests.
