Stalin Death Takes Spot
Off Important Meeting
By PHIL NEW80M
(uuu4 mu rmm Anio
The deatl. of Premier Josef
V. Stalin took the spotlight away
from an Important international
conference in Washington last
week.
Comparatively little attention
was paid to it even when it was
announced that the United States
ud Britain had reached agree
ment on Britain's dispute with
Iran, had also agreed to tighten
controls of export of strategic
war goods to Red China and had
made some progress on Britain s
and the Commonwealths' desire
for "trade not aid."
Of most Immediate interest Is
that phase of the talks dealing
with Red China.

another $60,000 bond issue ap
proved for the work at last No
vember s election.
A further improvement faces
the city, however, which came
to the council s attention Tues
day in a letter from the state
sanitary authority ordering that
further treatment facilities be
provided. Plans for secondary
plant and plans for financing it
must be in the .hands of the au
thority by July 1, the letter indicated.
Five acres of land for the pri
mary plant were deeded without
cost to the city of Lebanon by
Crown Zellerbach paper mill on
their property, and Ace Baker,
owner of the property between
the plant site and the river, has
given the city permission to run
its plant outlet through his
property.
Construction of the primary
plant will be started this spring
and completion is expected early
in 1954. . . .

2 Girls Killed
By Sex Fiend
Raraapo, N. Y. J9 Two
girls, resident of an institution
for children, were found mur
dered in a snow covered field,
and police said today the killings
were the work of a sex fiend.
The victims were Marjorie
Boudreau, 8. and Esther Nagy, 5,
who lived and attended school
at a home operated by the Ed
win Gould Foundation for Chil
dren. Their bodies were found
late yesterday. Autopsies will
be performed today.
Police said Marjorie's father,
Fred Boudreau was arrested re
cently on a charge of felonious
assault and released under $1,-
000 ball. The complaint was
brought by his wife.
Esthers father, Brown Nagy
of the Bronx, a plumber, col
lapsed when told of his daugh
ter's death.
Marjorie's body was discov
ered at dusk in a snow covered
field on the school's 160 acre
estate near Spring Valley, N. Y.
by two young boys. Her head
had been battered in, apparently
with stone. There were marks
near her throat and police said
she apparently had been raped.
Esther's body, with stab
wounds in the back, was found
just before midnight by two vol
unteer firemen some 500 yards
from where Marjorie's body was
discovered.
Authorities at the Gould Foun
dation said the girls left the in
stitution together, apparently to
take a walk) In the late afternoon.
A Joint announcement said
that British Foreign Secretary
Anthony Eden and Chancellor of
the Exchequer R. A. Butler had
agreed that no ships carrying
war goods to Red China would
be allowed to refuel at British
ports, and that no ship under
British license would be allowed
to carry war goods to Red Chi
na. It's all right as far as It
goes.
Finnish Tanker
It would mean, for example.
that the Finnish tanker Wilms
which recently appeared off
Singapore with load of jet
plane fuel for Red China would
not be allowed to refuel there.
leaves gaping holes and is a far
cry from any effective blockade.
The United 6tates and Britain
never have seen eye-to-eye on
the matter of doing business with
the Chinese Communists while
at the same time fighting a war
against them.
The trade In rubber, a strate
gic war material. It a good example.
Rubber Exports
The the British it has not been
particularly inconsistent that a
British soldier fighting in Korea
should be killed by an artillery
shell hauled to the front in a
truck whose tires were made
from rubber sold to the Reds by
Britain.
In 1952 rubber was Britain's
chief export to Russia and Its
iron curtain satellites.
The British make a point of
the fact that none of this rubber
was sold directly to Red China,
However, it must occur to
them that, once in Poland or
Russia, there is nothing to pre
vent these strategic war mate
rials from going the rest of the
way.
