Morse to Demand Investigation Qf the So-Called China Lobby By JOHN A. Washington, Nov. 24. WW Renewed demands for a con gressional investigation of the 10-called China lobby will greet the returning congress early in January.' It was disclosed today. Sen. Wayne Morse, (R. Ore.) aid he will restate his convic tion that a senate committee should study pressure and pro paganda employed on behalf of the Chinese Nationalists and other governments. Morse said he does not care what committee undertakes the investigation. But he promised that he will renew his request that an investigation be made "during the first week of the session." " Such an inquiry probably would . reveal whatever infor mation ' federal agencies have uncovered in their own check on the so-called China lobby. President Truman ordered that investigation last summer. At that time. Mr. Truman di rected executive agencies to as semble information on attempts to sway U.S. policies towards the government of Chiang Kai Shek after Moi'se and others asked Secretary of State Dean Afcheson about such activity. Since then, it is known that at least one . other senator has been trying to develop infor mation independent of the in quiry by government depart ments. ' - State department officials say privately that little has been done in assembling new infor mation since the inquiry order ed. Acheson told the MacAr- thur investigating committee that there is some evidence in the files that there is "consid erable" use of foreign funds to influence opinion in the United States some of which may GOLDSMITH be illegal. But Acheson said tbe "hearsay" nature of the evi dence made charges unwar ranted at that time. Justice department officials say they have been conducting a continuing check on such ex penditures on behalf of the Chi nese Nationalists in order to discover whether there has been any violations of the for eign agents registratiop act.

" Girl, 11, Born Without Arms, Says World Not Dull to Her Columbus, O., Nov. 24 W) i The world has never looked dull for pretty 11-year-old Jo ann McCarty, who was born without arms. But it seems especially bright these diiys because the plucky youngster, who writes with her toes, has hundreds of new friends she has never met. Letters are pouring in from all over the country to the adopted daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Orville McCarty of Co-dumbus. Many come from girls her own age. They are amazed at the things she can do with her feet and they want to become pen pals. The Associated Press sent Joann's story across the coun try. It told how she can do al most anything with her toes even thread a needle. Some of her "fans" merely wish her luck. Others send small amounts of money. All are solicitous of the little girl who feels she needs no help A doctor in North Hollywood, Calif., told the McCartys he has information on how arm less children can learn to play musical instruments. He'll send it to them. A Memphis, Tenn., business man says he knows a manufac turer of artificial limbs who will give Joann arms free. Mc Carty, a truck driver, is seri ously considering that offer. An elderly Indiana couple sent a card of congratulations and wrote on it: I "God between you and harm, little darling." Other letters still are coming in from Arizona, Kansas. Mary land, Iowa, Missouri, Florida. Illinois from big towns and little towns. Joann pores over them. She says: "It will take me a long time but I'm going to answer all of them." ' .. ' The first one she'll reply to is from little 8-year-old Jo Beth Johnson of Live Oak, Fla. That letter reads: Hello Joan: "I am Jo Beth. Mama has been writing to you about me, so I am adding a few lines. I like school. Hope you do, too. Write to me if you have time. I write with my toes, too. Love, Jo Beth." Jo Beth Is armless, too. Chicago. Nov. 24 (U.R) Chica go's famed "deep freeze wom an," who survived a body tem perature in the low 60s last winter, had fingers like ice, eye balls like glass and legs like very cold metal, a medical report said today. The report, written by Dr. Harold Laufman, said the fact that Mrs. Dorothy Mae Stevens had drunk large quantities of al cohol may have been a factor in her case. He drew no conclusions on whether the alcohol had a good or bad effect but recommended controlled animal experimen tation to clarify the effect of al cohol in this condition." Mrs. Stevens, 23-year-old Ne gro, was found lying in a Chi cago alley last Feb. 8 in tem peratures seven degrees below zero. Police thought she was dead but at Michael Reese hos pital 15 minutes later doctors bund she still was alive, breath ine only three to five times a minute and with a pulse rate of 15 to 20 beats a minute. Ninety minutes after she was admitted, a special thermome tor showed that her body tern perature was 64.4 degrees, be lieved to be the lowest ever re corded in medical history. But Laufman said her tem perature when discovered is be lieved to have been 60.8 de grees. She survived, but doctors had to amputate both legs be low the knees and all digits of her hands except the left thumb. Laufman, who told of his find ings in the Journal of the Am erican Medical Association to day, said Mrs. Stevens was "in a frozen coma. Her head, he said, "could not be moved from side to side ex cept by exertion of considerable force. Furthermore, it was im possible to flex or extend the head . . . due to an extreme-rigidity of the neck muscles." When he pressed her eyeballs with his fingers, Laufman said, it was like "pressing on glass and he placed his finger tip di rectly on the cornea without dis covering any reflex in the eye. "Touching the fingers or hands gave one the impression of touching ice," Laufman said. "The elbows could be flexed only with great force. The hands and fingers were hard and could not be dented.", He said touching the legs at the knees was like "touching ice, or perhaps very cold metal. Lauman admitted that some of the treatment given Mrs. Stev ens was on a trial and error basis. Other treatment was based on procedures established -from experience with milder cases and from research with animals. Noting that Mrs. Stevens had been drinking steadily for nine hours before she slipped and fell unconscious in the alley, Lauf man said the alcohol may have acted as an "initial soporific" or light anesthesia which "ofset the intense psychomotor disturbance and panic of the first stages of abrupt chilling." The alcohol also may have dilated the blood vessels near the surface of her body so that greater . volume of blood would be exposed to the cool ing effect of the surroundings and hasten a drop in body tem peratures. 'It remains for controlled anl 1 experimentation to clarify the effect of alcohol in this con dition," he said. It took 17 hours for her body temperature to recover to nor mal, 98.6 degrees. ... After they knew they had sav ed the woman's life, Laufman said, doctors attempted next to preserve as much of her frost bitten member as possible, pre vent infection, and "reestablish a state of normalcy in body functions." Her arms and legs were wrapped with bandages but de spite extensive treatment, gan grene set in and necessitated am putation of her legs and nine di gits of her hands. Mrs. Stevens was discharged from the hospital to a convales cent home on Aug. 8, six months after her experience in "deep freeze." She is still in the home awaiting fitting of artificial legs and undergoing occupational therapy. Elder Statesman of China Revolt Passes Taipeh, Formosa, Nov. 24 VP) A Chinese elder statesman who played a leading role In the 1911 revolution against the Manchu dynasty died last night after suffering a stroke.

U.S. Swaps Steel For Aluminum Washington, Nov. 24 UPi Britain is diverting part of its aluminum supply to the United States and this country is go ing part way in meeting British requests for more steel. Manly Fleischmann, national production authority (NPA) ad ministrator, said yesterday Bri tain has agreed to divert 22,- 045,000 pounds of its aluminum from Canadian sources. This Fleischmann said, "unquestion ably means the difference be tween survival and disaster for thousands of small business firms which could not have existed on the reduced allocations of alum inum originally thought necessa ry for the first quarter" of 1952. In a separate announcement, NPA disclosed that 71,000 tons of steel ingots and finished steel products have been allotted the British for the first quarter of next year. Further increases in the British allotment were ex pected later in the year. Part of the deal is that the U.S. "to the extent possible" will divert about 28,500 tons of iron and steel scrap from German sour ces to Britain. Britain has asked for a total of 800,000 tons of steel for next year. Th newest idea in Holiday Greeting! new way to display your Christmas Cards. new way to send your good wishes.
