Big Four Postpone Meeting
To Allow Tempers To Cool;
Reds Refuse To Cooperate
LONDON, Dec. 13 iflV-The for
elgn ministers' session scheduled for
today was postponed until Monday
on British Initiative, In order to
allow tempers u cool after last
night's violent argument.
The postponement was announced
by the conference secretariat.
A member of the U. S. delegation
ald It was agreed that another ses
sion today would only result in quick
tempers and confusion. The two-day
recess will give the ministers time to
plan a course of action.
Authoritative sources said the
American delegation agreed the con
ference was hopelessly deadlocked"
on the subject of reparations and
that without agreement on repara
tions, discussion of economic and
other subjects was useless.
Secretary Marshall Is expected to
decide over the week-end whether

Two Gunmen
Grab Money;
One Caught
PORTLAND, Ore.. Dec, 13 OP
Two gunmen attempted to rob a
department store of $17,639 yester
day, but within minutes police ar
rested a fleeing man in Christmas
hopping crowds and recovered the
money.
Disarmed, he confessed two previ
ous department store robberies here.
Detective Chief James Purcell said.
He was booked as Richard M.
Moore. 42, Portland, whose name
was listed on police records as a
former convict In the Oregon state
prison and the Washington state
reformatory.
Purcell said Moore refused to
name the others who participated
in previous robberies here, or the
name of his companion in the at
tempt yesterday on the Olds. Worth
man & King department store.
Questioning was continuing.
Purcell said an alarm was broad
cast within minutes after the hold
up man snatched a money bag from
the cashier at the store. As the gun
men fled downstairs, a store em
ploye, M. E. Friend, tackled Moore,
but before Moore was wrestled to
the floor, the second gunman forced
Friend to let go, Purcell said. The
pair ran outdoors, going in opposite
directions.
Police cars converged on the
store. The first on the scene. Pa
trolmen Arnold Oathes and Claude
Cochran, saw Moore running and
ordered him, via fender loudspeaker,
to put up his hands. After some
hesitation, he did. They found the
bag of money and a pistol on him,
Purcell said.
Purcell added that Moore con
fessed these previous robberies: at
the same Olds, Worthman & King
tore last June, $117,000 in checks
and $30 in cash, taken by three
men; the Lipman. Wolfe & Com
pany store in July. $11,563 in cash
and S26.000 in checks, taken by three
men: Kress tc Co.. S1500 cash on
Armistice Day, 1946, two men: Mc
Donald Candy company. $1000 in
cash, February 24. two men.
Soviets Protest
French Arrests
PARIS. Dec. 13 (Pi A foreign
ministry spokesman said today the
Soviet embassy had protested new
French arrests of Russian citizens at
Paris and Marseille.
Ke said the note had been de
livered this morning and was being
translated. He said he was unable to
give any details as to its contents or
comment upon it.
Earlier this week the French gov
ernment refused to accept a Soviet
note protesting the expulsion of 19
' Soviet citizens from France last
month and last night it informed
Moscow that it considered the ac
tion had been entirely legal and
proper.

lion of finishing the agenda before
doing It. Part of the decision will dc
pend on the attitude of Foreign
Minister Molotov ol Kussia at the
o)H'iilng of the Monday meeting.
Molotov was understood to be w ill
ing that the sessions continue. A
Soviet spokesman said the future of
the parley would depend on Mar
shall. Marshall was scheduled to meet
Molotov and his deputy, Andrei Y.
Vlshinsky, at luncheon today at Am
bassador Lewis W. Douglas' residence.
Some of Marshall's advisers said
privately they believed Molotov's at
tack yesterday, when he denounced
the whole range tif the western pow
ers' policy in Germany, had killed
all hope even for superficial Big
Four agreements on Germany and
that little if anything could be ac
complished by going on here.
Others contended Marshall might
better avoid a move to end the con
ference immediately because of the
possibility of the upsetting effects
throughout Europe of such a formal
Big Four break.
"Threw The Book"
The speech in which, as some
western diplomats said. Molotov
threw the book" at Marshall. Bevin
and Bidault came as a surprise,
because delegations of the western
powers went into yesterday's meet
ing expecting a continuation of
olotov's mild, conciliatory tactics
of last week.
What Molotov charged had all
been said by various Soviet officials
or propaganda agencies. Molotov
charged the western powers were
profiting on German exports,
were buying up German firms, were
piling up economic obligations on
Germany and trying to "perpetuate
the division of Germany."
All this, Molotov declared, was
part of a strategic scheme to con
vert the western zones into a basis
for an attack on the "democratic''
that is the communist countries
of Europe.
What was new, however, accord
ing to American officials, was to
have Molotov organize all these
charges into a single bombshell
speech and explode it in the faces
of Marshall. Bevin and Bidault.
Among them the three had already
denied each of the charges. In
bringing up the same points again
Molotov had in effect labeled their
denials as false.

Youth Guidance Officer
Speaks At Eagles Confab
Greek Loan
Up Planned
TACOMA. Wash.. Dec. 13 iPt An
increase in the $300,000,000 aid pro
gram to Greece to give military
help to Greek government forces
fighting communist-led guerrillas
is under "serious consideration" by
the state department, George C.
McGhee, coordinator of American
aid to Greece and Turkey, said last
night.
He spoke before the Tacoma
World Affairs council at the College
of Puget Sound.
He made no estimate of the addi
tional amount the administration
might ask of congress. The Mar
shall plan, he said, can take care
of Greece's economic needs but not
the "equally important" military re
quirements. "Communist nations arc fully
aware of the importance to the
democracies of a free Greece," Mc
Ghee said. "They are aware that so
long as Greece remains free the
spread of communism throughout
Europe and the Middle East will
be impeded.
"They are also x x x determined
in their efforts to impose upon the
Greek people a totalitarian govern
ment aligned with International
communism."
Speaking before the Eagles' youth
guidance rally Friday night at Fre
mont school. Gerald W. Mason, vice
chairman for the national youth
guidance committee. FOE, said
"children are not delinquent.''
Mason laid the blame for chil
dren's misdemeanors firmly on the
shoulders of parents, whom he said
were the delinquent ones, citing case
histories from his experience as a
parole officer to illustrate his point.
He spoke rousingly of the adverse
effect of sending youths to the peni
tentiary, and said the Eagles are
moving to get an intermediate in
stitution so that committing auto
theft and such offenses will not be
punished by the stigma of a prison
brand to be carried to the grave.
"Childhood Tragedies," a picture,
was presented to Judge David R.
Vandenberg by Mason.

Choose Your Worries"
Says Knife-Fork Speaker
If you feel you simply huvn to
worry, be particular tu your choice
of subject.., Pick out one that you
ear do nomething about. Then eon
(lnr yourself to the positive elements
of the situation and dlscaul the neg
atives. This was the substance id the ad
vice given last night by Dr. David
Seitbmy, psyehtutil.it. author and
lecturer, to the mcnibeift of the
Knllr and Fork club. "If you van'i

"ou're simply heading (or stomach

He divided worry subjects into
two general classesthe Inevitables

Just can't do anything about. The
adjustables are thtt.se you can work
niound in such a way oh tu make
something um-(u1 out of them.
"Putting it more sluiplv.'' he went
on. "there are good worries and had

stiuctlve. The bud ones are purr

As an example of good worrle.v he
