(Continued from Page 1)
Car Entered A window was
broken on her car and about $5 was
taken while the car was parked in
the 300 block of Trade street Sat
urday night, Violet Anderson, 1599
State street, reported to city police.
Acting on the assumption the
Big Four were about to move on to
the Austrian question, Austrian
Foreign Minister Leopold Figl ar
ranged plane reservations to come
to Berlin from Vienna Tuesday.
The .ministers also were due to
discuss how and when to take up
the question of an independence
treaty for Austria.
To Confront Molotov
The three Western ministers
were reported determined to con
front Molotov with a three-point
program:
1. They wiU meet with Red
China only for discussion of such
Asian issues as Korea and Indo
china, and only if the Peiping
regime demonstrates good faith by
cooperating first in a Korean
settlement or else stops arming
the Communist-led Vietminh reb
els in Indochina.
2. The Big Four must fix a
deadline for their fruitless discus
sions on Germany, unless Russia
is ready to modify her demands.
3. All international attempts to
bring about world disarmament
must be within the United Nations.
Molotov had proposed such a con
ference be held outside the inter
national organization, so Red
China could attend.
Stirring to Revolt
The conference moved out of
East Berlin, where it met last
week at the Soviet Embassy, in
the wake of evidence that the 18
million East Germans again are
stirring to a low boil against the
Red occupation.
Western agencies with thorough
information networks in the East
said 300 to 500 Germans had been
jailed in the past week for speak
ing out openly against Soviet For
eign Minister Molotov's proposal
to unite Germany on the ha.nmer
and sickle pattern.
East German secret police were
on a full alert, but the 300,000-man
Soviet occupation army was re
ported going about winter activity
as usual.
The discontent hadn't a chance
of upsetting the Russian occupa
tion, but it gave a challenging
answer to Molotov's picture of East
Germany as a happy land, "free"
to vote in elections for a list of
Red-picked -candidates with io
questions permitted.
Opinion Due
tOnnlimiMt from Paif 1)
It retails low-priced merchandise
in large variety through the large
chain of stores, 60 per cent of
which are located in industrial and
agricultural trade centers of from
2500 to 50,000 population, and the
remainder in the large metropoli
tan areas.
The major part of its merchan
dise falls under the classification
of staple goods, and the approxi
mate number of articles carried
varies according to the size of
the store, ranging from 1500 to 12,
000. Among the principal types
are men's, women's and children's
apparel, including millinery, sports
wear and accessories, hosiery, un
derwear and footwear, draperies,
toiletries, costume jewelry, leather
goods, notions, books and station
ery, home furnishings, including
housewares, rugs, furniture, elec
tric goods, paint, hardware, garden
supplies, toys and candy.

Listed on Exchange
In 1950 the stockholders approved
a plan by which the directors may
authorize the sale of either unis
sued or treasury shares of com
mon stock to officers and em
ployes. At present the company's
slock is quoted on the New York
Stock Exchange at J.'i'i.
The company maintains a re
search organization. Most of the
stores are leased on a fixed rental
basis, but some on a percentage
of gross sales.
In 1952 the company acquired an
interest in Zeller's Limited, which
operates 51 stores fai Canada, and
which had sales of $35,113,167 in
the fiscal year ending January tl,

Jackson noted, however, that
Justices Reed and Minton did not

they concurred In the general view j
Jackson expressed that serious
questions had been raised by the ;
conduct of the police.
Irvine was sentenced in state
court to a year and a half in
prison, or one year and $1,500 fine.
In his appeal to the Supreme
Court he asked a ruling that a tax
provided by Congress may not be
"nullified and defcoted by state of

and thus licensed."
Jackson and his four colleagues
