Rhonda Fleming is eye-filling as the king's niece. Alisande. and Murvyn Vye is a sinister Merlin. Crosby's jousting with Sir Lance lot (Henry Wilcoxon) is a funny travesty of David and Goliath.

"Miranda" is an odd little Bri tish dish, a hih-f lavored fantasy in which a doctor goes: angling and brings home a mermaid. Holly wood considered the same propo sition, less Amusingly, in "Mr. Pea body andrthe Mermaid." In the HollywocVd version, the mermaid was explained away as only the hallucination of the aging William Powell. In the J. Arthur Rank im portation, she's impossibly, naugh tily real. Hr tail -wiggles and flops as though it had nerves and muscle. Glyms Johns, as Miranda, the mermaid, is big-eyed, blonde, and seductive. with a voice like Jean Arthur's. Hauled off by her to an underwater cavern, the astounded physician (Griffith Jones) gives in to her plea that he take her to London. He buys extra-long dress es, to cover her tail, and takes her home by train as a crippled pa tient. In London she makes a play for eery man who cafries her. She breaks up two engagements and nearly wrecks the idoctor's mar riage. An eccentric burse engaged to care for her asks whether the tail -isn't a handicap with the gentlemen."

May lO-CJ-A former Polish general testified to day that Moscow-directed agents expected to "break up the United States' into a series of small sep arate nations of Negroes, Germans and other racial entities. Gen. Izydor Rudolf Modelski, former military attache at the Po lish embassy here, told a senate Judiciary subcommittee he re ceived word of the plot from an alleged mastet Soviet spy named Com. Gustaw Alef-Bokolwiak. The witness said Col. Alef posed as his deputy on the Polish embas sy staff but in reality 'was "one of the most important communists and an agent of the NKVD, which Is the Russian secret police. On the other side of caoitol hill, house spy hunters said they had testimony that the son of i a uni versity of California official help ed a communist attempt to pry In to the school's atomic laboratory in 1941. Paul Crouch, admitted former communist and Mimi, Fla.. news paperman, gave the testimony in a secret session of the house un American activities committee last Friday. "I was active in trying to in filtrate all scientific research at the University of California, Crouch testified. He said he was aided by a Uni versity official's son the narfie was not disclosed who drove him to secret meetings in palatial southern California homes. Courch said the plan was to or ganize the laboratory workers in to special sections of the commun ist party. The project was so se cret, he said, that party commun ications referred to them in Greek figures Instead of by individual names. Modelskl testified to the senate group that Col. Alef told him: "It is a fairly easy job to Un dermine United States production. There will be a revolution. They expect to break up the United States into mall groups. They will have a negro nation, a Yugo na tion, a German nation, and so forth " Modelski said he was told In F1947 "by Soviet Admiral Glinko- lo that the Russians, would de cide "when war should come with the United States." The witness also testified: 1. TUat the Polish embassy was "the center of a spying apparatus and subversive activities direct ed against the United States." 2. That he had been told the wife of the present Polish ambas sador, Josef Winiewicx, "is a mem ber of the NKVD. I. That Dr. Ignacy Zlotowskl. a Polish representative to the Unit ed Nations, was sent to this coun try "to do espionage in the atomic bomb field." Continuing his testimony before the senate group, which is con ducting hearings on a bill by Sen ator McCarran (D-Nev.) to tight en U. S. immigration laws. Model ski said: "I was told (on coming to the (United States) that I would b used to serve as a human screen behind which Col. Alef. using the assumed name of B o 1 k o w I a k, would engage in espionage and subversive activities." He said he feigned agreement and took the assignment as mili tary attache "in the hope that I could expose the activities of CoL Alef and his espionage work." The general had previously tes tified before the house un-American activities committee that throughout his service at the Washington embassy he coopera ted with American military intel ligence. This covered a period from May, 1946. to last August, when he ; walked out. He said he quit to es ; cap trial by the com munis t-dom-( inated Polish government "when I j could no longer refuse their ins is t ' ent demands that I return to Po j land " j (House investigators said that j when last heard from.

The decline In consumers" In come, a prime source of federal revenue, was most severe in March, the commerce department reported, when personal Incomes fell $2,000,000,000 below the prev ious month. The March slump brought the first quarter! income rate down to a total of $216,700,000,000 fig ured on an annual basis, as com pared with $219,600,000,000 for the last three months of IMS,. .
