China Situation The U. S. navy has moved its heavy
chips out of Shanghai to avoid involvement in China's civil
war. Movement of ships into Yangtze estuary (A) will put
them out of artillery range when Reds arrive in world's
fourth largest city. It Is anybody's guess whether commu
nists (shaded arrow) would strike first to seal off Nationalist
escape route by taking Hangchow (B), or hit for Shanghai
Itself, where Reds (black arrow) were reported to have In
filtrated to city's outskirts after taking Wuslh. Black area
represents territory under communist control. (AP Wire

No Inquiry into
Halt on Carrier
Washington, April 28 WV-
The senate armed services com
mittee today decided against
making any Inquiry now into
the halting of work on the
navy's super aircraft carrier
and the protest resignation of
Navy Secretary Sullivan.
Chairman Tydings (D., Md.)
told reporters the decision was
unanimous and stands for the
"time being" at least. He added
that It came after "some discus
sion" at a closed meeting called
to work out final details of leg
Isltion to tighten unification of
the armed services.
As part of the new law, Tyd
ings said the committee agreed
to put in a clause prohibiting
the transfer of personnel from
one service to another.
This is aimed, he explained,
at allaying fears that the ma
rines might be eliminated or
that the navy's air arm might
be shifted to the air force.
Sullivan had expressed ap
prehension that the marines
might be abolished when he
stepped down as navy chief ear
lier this week in protest against
the Junking of plans for the big
carrier.
Both President Truman and
Secretary of Defense Johnson,
however, said earlier today that
such fears are groundless.

On Field's Son
Los Angeles, April 28 VP) A
Follies girl's "voice from the
grave" today accented a man's
claim that he Is the son of the
late W. C. Fields and entitled
to a share of the comedians
$771,428 estate.
On file in superior court are
a deathbed letter written Dy
the showgirl and also letters
allegedly written by Fields.
The letters are part of a dep
osition tiled In probate court
yesterday in behalf of William
Rexford Fields Morris, who
claims to be Fields son. His
whereabouts and occupation
were not disclosed.
A petition accompanying the
depositon said statements in it
were made April 16 at Onset,
Mass., by Bessie Adelaide With
erell, mother of the Follies girl,
Bessie Chatteron Polle.
Morris filed a petition In su
perior court here last February
3 to determine heirship in the
many-sided contest over the
estate of Fields, who died Christ
mas day, 1946. Morris was not
mentioned in Fields' will, dated
April 28, 1943.
The comedian's long-estrang
ed wife, Mrs. Harriet V. Fields,
who was bequeathed $10,000, is
suing for a widow's share in
gifts made by Fields.
Mrs. Witherell's deposition
said her daughter, who died
October 8, 1928, was in the Zieg-
feld Follies in 1918 or 1919 and
that she was infatuated with
Fields, and appeared with him
in vaudeville acts.
