British Labor
Party Expects
To Go Slow
By R. H. Shackford
(United Preaa Staff Correspondent)
London, Feb. 28 U'i Britain's
main political parties held con
ferences today on the eve of the
convening of the new parliament
with every sign indicating the la
bor government would pigeonhole
much of its controversial pro
gram. Prime Minister Clement Attlee
continued talks with his top min
isters about the government's leg
islative program and the reshuf
fled cabinet which will be an
nounced some time before parlia
ment meets tomorrow afternoon.
Winston Churchill and his con
servative shadow cabinet were ex
pected to decide to sit tight for
the time being, watch the labor
party squirm with its precarious
majority in commons, and per
haps try to keep the Laborites In
the tough position of responsibil
ity without power as long as pos
sible. Liberals Get Blaine
Liberal party leaders also met,
with Clement Davies presiding.
The liberals were blamed by
both labor and conservative lead
ers for creating the parliament
ary stalemate. They had nearly
500 candidates In the election, but
won only nine seats.
Labor quarters indicated they
might seek an election by early
summer, iney were worried
about many things, especially
their ability to maintain the wage
freeze which so much of British
labor opposes.
Attlee spent more than an hour
with King ueorge VI last night,
presenting his new labor cabinet
and outlining the new govern
ment program which the king
will announce to the new parliament.
The new labor program will be
Kept secret until the king deliv
ers the government's speech from
the throne next Monday.
Attlee's party .now has 315
seats to 296 for the conservatives.
The liberals have nine seats. Oth
ers include one independent lib
eral, two Irish nationalists and
the speaker of the house, who
cannot vote.
BERLIN HUMOR
Berlin, Feb, 28 HW A gag of
sorts was making the rounds to
day among those Berliners whose
ivry sense of humor came intact
Ihrough the city's heaviest snow
storm in memory.
The wags were passing around
the suggestion that the Marshall
plan be reversed and Germany
send some coal to the United
States.
Berliners doubt that anybody
else In the world can appreciate
better than they the plight of
Americans caught with their coal
bins empty in the dead of winter.
Cancer Victim's
Husband Testifies
At Sander Trial
Manchester, N. H., Feb. 28 UD
The husband of the cancer patient
Dr. Hermann N. Sander is accus
ed of murdering, testified today
that "if the doctor was my own
brother I could not feel more
kindly toward him."
Reginald F. Borroto, 65, retired
oil company salesman testifying
In the seventh day of Dr. Sander's
mercv murder trial, recounted un
der cross-examination the kind
ness with which the physician
treated his wife Abbie, 59.
"If Mrs. Borroto had been Dr.
Sander's mother or sister he
couldn't have done more to en
courage her," Borroto said.
"He brought her many gifts,'
the husband added. "On one occa
sion he brought her a canary in
a caee comolcte with all tne in
tings. She became very fond of
the bird.
"Dr. Sander made a particular
effort to bring his three little
girls to see my wife because she
was fond ot children.
Close Friends

wife's long illness of an abdom
inal cancer, he made frequent so.

he became a close friend of the

Dr. Sander said he acted after
Borroto pleaded with him to end
his wife's suffering.
Borroto said late yesterday
when he began testifying as the
state's eighth witness, that he
never had asked Dr. Sander to
shorten his wife's life.
In Constant Pain
A neat man with a dry, delib
erate voice, Borroto sat in the
witness box and detailed the story
of his wife's illness.
Speaking in well-rounded sent
ences, he said that once his
daughter Elise, 19, who had been
caring for her mother at home,
told her that her weight was
down to 80 pounds. He said Mrs.
Borroto replied that s the last
time I'll weigh myself."
"She was in pain constantly,"
Borroto said.
"She could lie only on her right
side the pain was too much on
the left side. She had a heating
pad on constantly and was given
sedatives.
"Dr. Sander came to see her fre
quentlymany times without my
asking him to do so. On various
occasions the doctor appeared
very tired. Once I told him I
thought he was a fool to do so
much work on so many commit
tees in his condition."

Frineville, Feb. 28 Reporting
that it had received information
that cattails grow in profusion
near here, a concern of Tucson,
Ariz., has written to the local
chamber of commerce to seek a
supply of the marshland reeds.
The concern stated that it desired
the cattails in substantial quan
tities for use in decorative en
sembles of cacti.
The Prlneville Flower Basket,
local floral concern, reported that
in so far as is known no commer
cial harvest of cattails has ever
been made here.lt was declared,
however, that a plentiful supply
is available, and the information
was forwarded to Tucson. If the
number of cattails desired is suf

the making here, it is declared.
In 1949, 22 states had legalized
horse racing. In 1909. only two
states had the sport.
