Y., Jan. 19 By the time this item is pub-ii.i-.j ,u. ui. vorHirt will undoubtedly be known. (For some rea son it takes air mail four or five where the time consumea usea to rje less man nun us tuiig. haps our new postmaster can remedy thjs if he puts his hand to it!) Since our last report the situation has changed considerably as far as the Hiss outcome is concernea. inis is especially iruo m me press-room down the hall. ... , . ,, . Press men are sometimes sentimental and even idealistic about their heroes and heroines but never about their betting where real money is involved. .... ... ., The odds are approximately 100 to 1 as of today regarding acquittal. In other words the newspaper men think acquittal is OUT they can t see such an outcome in view ot ine evidence in this second trial. They still regard a hung jury as possible, but no longer as probable as It was a few days ago. In other words the rebuttal tes timony of the government has been pretty devastating to the de fense. Those who still believe disagreement probable can get odds of two or three to one. The majority opinion, in short, solidly backs conviction on about the fifth ballot, and some are willing to give odds that it will be on the first. Sooooo It may be interesting for the T-G syndicate to check the above and figure out how the press boys came out in their predictions. Incidentally while the N. Y. reporters earn two or three times as much money as they did In "the good old days" they don t bet as generously as thev used to. Five bucks are about the limit while the average, we should guess, is one. Nor do they play as much stud poker in recess periods. We don't believe the press boys are wrong far wrong at least. Most of them have attended this trial from the start, and the first trial as well. None denies the government s case in the latter has been materially stronger than in the former. We would still regard a hung Jury as somewhat more probable than the press room thinks; but with the summations still to go and Murphy is conceded to be far stronger in this direction than Cross a convic tion docs seem to be the most likely and fairly prompt outcome, e e e e The government's rebuttal testimony was damaging because It did materially impair the testimony of the Hisses, particularly Mrs. Hiss. And then Sen. John Foster Dulles came on and denied the factual truth of some of Mr. Hiss' statements. While the sena tor agreed he had, as Hiss had claimed, endorsed the defendant as iinnrf nf I he rarnnelc foundation, and uo to the time of the trial conceded his reputation for loyalty, veracity and integrity to be excellent, he did not agree that Hiss had offered his resignation first, but maintained ne nimseit naa in citect asueo ior u or at least Intimated it would be sporting of Hiss to offer it. This was not so vital except from the standpoint of the importance and pres tige of former Senator Dulles the jury woke up when he took the witness stand and were unusually attentive throughout so the net result was a considerable moral defeat for the defense. The testimony of a tcrt. sharo-volced. rather frail colored woman who had been the Chambers domestic for a considerable time 15 years ago was more damaging. Her name was Edith Mur ray and she proved to be a valuable witness for the government. Mr. and Mrs. Hiss had both declared the latter emphatically they never visited the Chambers in Baltimore, while Mr. and Mrs. Chambers claimed they had. Mrs. Murray was very positive that the Chamberg told the truth. She was a cook in the Chambers household when Mrs. Hiss visited them In Baltimore at least "four times" and on one occa sion SDent the night. She also said Mr. AND Mrs. Hiss visited the Chambers once. She admitted that when the FBI first showed her a picture of Mrs. Hiss she thought she was a movie actress, but when Mrs. Hiss was brought to the U.S. federal court here In New York all doubt wag removed, she recognized her as the person who had visited the Chambers Canlwell in Baltimore around Attorney Cross worked hard theme. Irvine time after time in give the jury the impression that until the FBI showed her the picture of Mrs. Hiss, this domestic did not know her, and her recol lection was therefore synthetic. But he failed to get very far. In this direction, as In so many others in this puzzling case, we don't pretend to know the exact truth. But we do know be yond any reasonable doubt that the JURY decided that in this particular ease Mr. and Mrs. Hiss hart eitner forgotten tne incident of 14 vears ago. or had not told the truth, while this colored maid had. It was at any rate another ten-strike for Boxer Murphy and bad news for the Hiss camp. Speaking of-the "Hiss camp," there are plenty of charter mem berg and very loyal ones. In fact say what you may about the Hisses there can be no denial they have known how to make friends and keep them. Mrs. Hiss was once a school-teacher in a well known private school here in New York. We met one of her for mer young boy pupils the other day member of a prominent DP family from Austria. He was trying to get into the Hiss trial and finally succeeded by some fast foot-and-mouth work. We talked with him during the noon recess and he was not only absolutely convinced of the innocence of Mrs. Hiss but was ready to fight and die for her flawless reputation if called upon. All of her former pupils and all the school faculty for that matter are equally loyal or so he said and we don't doubt it. We have met some college professors from Columbia and New York university one of them a distant cousin and they are also a unit solidly behind the Hisses. A few who have followed the two trials closely admit to doubt as to acquittal, but they simply RE FUSE to believe that Mr. and Mrs. Hiss could have been or are guilty of the charges brought against them. "People like the Hisses just don't DO such things," is their argument. e Meanwhile some close friends of the Hisses have been request ing donations for a defense fund during the past few days, one member of the Medford group having been solicited. The woman who Bsked for aid is well known in New York and Connecticut, a woman of unusual Intelligence, refinement and education. She ex plained the Hisses have spent everything they have and have had to go into debt to defray the immediate costs of this second trial anything would be welcome from $5 to $500. She, too, had no more doubt of the innocence of the Hisses, than she had of the moral validity of the 10 Commandments. There must be hundreds of people in New York who feel very much as she does. We fear they are due for a severe disappointment this coming week-end! e Finally we have not changed the view expressed In this col umn some time ago that Alger Hiss is innocent; OR is the greatest actor since Edwin Booth and the greatest liar since Ananias. We have observed him carefully during the past few trying days trying for the defense at least. Not once, not even when John Foster Dulles was testifying against him did Hiss show the slightest perturbation, or was there any perceptible change from his cool, calm, relaxed and perfectly poised demeanor. When the former Chambers maid testified, Mrs. Hiss visibly "froze" and when the maid in typical "darky" fashion, related some incidents in a very amusing way, Mr. Hiss showed all his strong, well-brryied teeth In a hearty grin, but not the trace of a smile flickered over the countenance of his attractive young wife, who early In the trial was described as a "Quaker Mona Lisa." Her pale severe gravity was quite conspicuous for even the judge smiled and several members of the jury had difficulty in maintain ing their customary dignity. We wish the psychiatrists who report ed on Chambers had also studied Alger Hiss. This much is certain his powers of self-control (or dissembling) surpass anything along that line your correspondent has ever seen in a court room! It sure ly isn't, EXCEPT on the assumption of innocence, NORMAL! R.W.R. Reconditioned Tanks Arrive In Formosa Taipei, Formosa, Jan. 23 (U.R) A cargo of 75 reconditioned U.

The new tanks include some M-8 types, armed with 75 millimeter cannon, which will provide the nationalists with some of the heaviest firing pow er ever used against the com munists.

Treating Of Cancerous Mice Brings Results Philadelphia, Pa., Jan 23 (U.P.) Dr. Hugh J.

"The results to date are far from a cure for human cancer." he said, "but partial destruction of certain tumors has been nolcd." Creech said the sugars, known toscince as polysaccharides, poi son cells, attacking the fast growing cancerous cells before striking at normal tissue. a X . v on, tool VWapoRub lomat, who served as secretary of state for one year under President Wilson, included the present crisis in Asia among the "subsequent troubles" resulting from Soviet recognition. Favors Strong Stand Colby favored a strong U. stand against the maltreatment of Americans abroad, such as the communists' imprisonment and trial of Angus Ward, consul general at Mukden, Manchuria. As a guide, he cited the words of William Learned Marcy, who served as secretary of state from 1853 through 1857: "I deem it my duty to make the United States respectable and respected throughout the world." Colby recalled that Russia's first bid for U. S. recognition was rejected during his tenure as secretary of state. Request Ignored Moscow sent a representative to the United States in 1919 to seek recognition but its request was ignored for more than a year. When the major European powers asked this country for its views on the subject, Colby stated them in full in a note handed the Italian ambassador here on Aug. 10, 1920. His views, which closely par allel those held by many Amer ican leaders today, were that: "It Is not possible for the gov ernment of the United States to recognize the present rulers of Russia as a government with which the relations common to friendly governments can be maintained." Aim Explained His note said the red regime "has for its openly avowed aim the promotion of Bolshevist rev olutions throughout the world," and that it intended to use its diplomatic corps as a "channel for intrigues and propaganda of revolt." The Soviet government, he said, was based "upon the nega tion of every principle of honor and good faith . . . underlying the whole structure of interna tional law." Minister Criticizes Truman's Language Boston, Mass., Jan. 23 (U.R) President Truman s language has been criticized by a Baptist min ister.
