Only two miles of rough water in the Bering Strait separates Russian territory (Big Diomede) and
American territory (Little Diomede). Here, where the Soviet Union and the U. S. are close neigh

19,000 miles of coastline. The Army has ordered reinforcements to Alaska, but far short of the

“The DuPont men seemed to
feel that we were on the thresh
hold of launching a new and ex

Cooke reports. “They feel that it
is as important as their introduc
tion and development of nylon in
the hosiery field”. He pointed out,
however, that production must be
limited for the present because of
lack of large quantities of nylon
and that its becoming a large and
important factor must await com

rope.
In between these releases, the
White House issued a statement
in which Mr, Truman declared
that Smith’s purpose in calling
on Molotov in the first place had
been to impress upon the Soviet
government:
(1) That the present policies
of the United States, including
European recovery, ‘wili con
tinue. to be vigorously and firm
ly prosecuted” but (2) *“The
Uniteq States has no hostile or
aggressive designs whatever
with respect to the Soviet Union.”
What started the outpouring of
statements wes the fact that the
Moscow Radio Monday night
broadcast both Smith’s original
statement to Molotov and Molo
tov's reply.
This immediately aroused spec
ulation throughout the worldg on
the probability of an early con
ference between the United States
and Russia. This speculation,
however, found little support in
the private comments of Ameri
can officials. They insist that the
United States had not in fact pro
posed any such two.power discus
gsion and does not see how it
could have profitable results now.

CULLMAN, Ala., May 12—
(AP) — Attorneys for Governor
James E. Folsom hope to swing
a knockout blow today at the
paternity = suit . brought against
the newly-married executive by
an attractive red-haired divorcee.
They were prepared to.argue
before Cricuit Judge J. H. Crow,
jr., that Mrs. Christine Putnam
Johnston’s complaint is legally
invalid and should be thrown out
of court.
Mrs. Johnston, 30-year-old
former Birmingham hotel em
ploye, charges that the six-foot
eight-inch governor ‘is her com
mon-law husband and the father
of her two-year-old son, .James
Douglas.
Folsom, married just a week
ago to a beautiful state employe,
Jamelle Moore, was not cxpected
to appear in court, since the ar
guments today were sirictly of a
technical = nature. Neither was
Mrs. Johnston.
