LITTLE ROCK, Ark. Nov. 14.
—(AP)—A man walked into a
liquor store here, pointed a gun at
the clerk and ordered him to
stack up the money and hand it
over.
When the clerk, Lyn Cornish,
replied “to hell with you; you've
¥ot a gun, go ahead and shoot,”
the man stared in disbelief.
Then he said, “you’ve got more
nerve than I have,” and fled, al
most bowling over an incoming

“I wasn’t a bit nervous,” Cor=-

There was no scheduled meeting
between Lewis and the soft coal
operators. ~ Cyrus S. Ching, the
government’s chief mediator, had
arranged a meeting last week
after Lewis suspended the 52-day
old strike for three weeks. But
Lewis did not show up. A Lewis
aide said the UMW chief would be
in Washington Monday “awaiting
the convenience of the coal opera
tors.”
But the operators, in a deadlock
with Lewis since last June, ap

man on the coal dispute and most
observers thought he favored ap
pointment of a Presidential Fact
finding Board with power to rec
ommend a settlement. President
Truman named such a board, upon
Ching’s recommendation, in the
steel dispute.
With at least five steel com
panies signing strike-ending con
tracts over the weekend, less than
100,000 CIO steelworkers remained
on strike. But the holdout com
panies are expected to sign con
tracts and within a week or 10
days virtually 95 per cent of the
some 500,000 steelworkers who
struck Oect. 1 for free pensions will
be back on the job.
The biggest producers have end
ed their dispute over the pensions.
Major holdouts are Allegheny Lud=~
lum Steel Corp., Crucible Steel,
Pittsburgh Steel, and Sharon (Pa.)
Steel. The biggest firm to sign yes
terday was Wheeling (W. Va.)
Steel Corporation for its 15,000
ggkers in West Virginia and
5 5 ;
Steel firms which have signed
agreements followed the general
pattern of the contract signed with
Bethlehem Steel Company, the
first major company to settle its
dispute with the wunion. The
agreement is based on a company
paid pension plan to provide &
minimum monthly henefit of SIOO
including Social Security and a
five-cent social insurance pro

jointly by company and worker.

Alumminui LTalks
The CIO-USW is expected to
start negotiations with the Alumi

nesday in an attempt to end the
strike of some 20,000 workers in
Alcoa plants in nine states.
There were developments in the
dispute between left and right
wing union members in the elec
trical industry. At Lynn, Mass.,
16,000 members of local 201 voted
to quit the left wing United Elec
trical Workers (UE) and join the
new CIO International Union of
Electrical Radio and Machine
Workers. The local is made up of
General Electric Company em
ployes in Lynn.
The left wing group of a big
Pittsburgh local, the 13,000 mem
bers of UE 601 at the Westinghouse
Electric Corp., ordered an election
of officers. Some 9,000 members
of the local quit UE to join the
new CIO group.
At Bristol, Conn., Roman Cath
olie Priests at five churches urged
arishioners who are members of

from the union. The priests want
the 1,200 members of the local to
join the new CIO union, which
was oragnized after UE's ouster
from the CIO at the union’s recent
national convention.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY FOR PRINCE
Charles Philip Arthur George, Prince of Edinburgh,
plump and healthy son of Prince Philip and Princess
Elizabeth, poses with his mother in an official portrait
in honor of his first anniversary, He is one year old to
day.— (AP Wirephoto via radio from London.)
40-POUND CAKE
Ist Birthday Party
For Prince Charles
LONDON, Nov. 14, — (AP) — It’s the back page for
London’s party-going debutantes today—a one-year-old
with six teeth is giving high society’s most exclusive birth
day party.
He's bonnie Prince Charlie, son of Princess Elizabeth
and'the Duke of Edenburg, first grandson of King George
VI and Queen Elizabeth, and himself a prospective king of
England.
Young Charles will receive in
his blue and white nursery at his
parents’ home, Clarence House,
here today. His guests will include
members of London’s titled nurs
ery set. The party will be small,
and as quiet as-watchful mothers
and nurses can keep it.
The birthday cake will weigh
40 pounds. The Prince himself
weights 24 pounds, eight ounces.
There’ll be one candle atop the
cake, which Charles may be per
mitted to blow out.
He won’t get a taste of the mas
sive cake, however. Since Papa
Philip is a sailor and cakes for a
sailor's house traditionally have a
liberal dose of rum, this cake is
rum-flavored too. Half a pint to
flavor the 40 pounds. But even
that little nogging is not for year
oid princes. (Hemember what
those Scottish churchmen said
about Aunt Margaret’'s late
hours?).
For Charles, this is one of the
biggest weeks in his life so far,
He says goodbye to his mother
Saturday. Princess Elizabeth will
fly then to Malta to spend her
wedding anniversary Sunday with
Prince Philip, on naval duty in
the Mediterranean.

RICHMOND, Va, Nov. 14 —
(AP) — Bandleader Jimmy Dor
sey is supposed to appear in court
today on charges of hitting a
milkman over the head with his
famous clarinet,
But there’s some doubt that
Dorsey will show .up in police
court to answer assault charges
brought by the milkman, William
G. Toney, jr. If he doesn’t, he will
forfeit a SIOO bound he posted
Saturday . when a warrant ‘was
served on him at Roanoke, Va.
Toney, 22, said Dorsey cracked
him across the head with the clar=-
inet last week at a dance here.
Toney’s version was that the
blow was delivered after he ask=
ed Dorsey if he was bandleader
Tommy Dorsey’s brother. (He is.)
Dorsey said Toney had been
heckling him “for 15 or 20 min
utes” and that “I finally got tired
of it.”

Coplon, Gubitchev Called
Into Court On Spy Charges
Former Russian Boy Friend
Goes On Trial For First Time
NEW YORK, Nov, 14.— (AP) —Judith Coplon and Val
entine Gubitchev appeared in court today for trial on
charges of conspiring to spy for Russia, The trial was de
layed but was expected to begin late in the day.
- Federal Judge Sylvester J. Ryan was named to preside,
but he had to ciean up other litigation before he could
take up the cage.- -
Miss Coplon, 28, walked into
court briskly wearing a smart
brown outfit. The courtroom is the
same in which the nine-month
trial of the 11 convicted Commun
ist leaders was held.
Gubitchev, who sat in the front
row and did not look at Miss
Coplon, repeated his refusal to ac
cept counsel. He has repeatedly
refused to accept the services of
a court-appointed lawyer,
The dimunitive Miss Coplon,
former employe of the Depart
ment of Justice, already is under
sentence of 40 months to 10 years
in prison. She was convicted in
Washington last summer of being
a spy for Russia.
Judge Riving R. Kaufman, who
assigned Judge Ryan to the case,
also referred to him a court order
obtained by Miss Coplon’s attor
ney. It requires the prosecution to
show why it should not return
to the defense papers taken from
Miss Coplon at the® time of her
arrest.
Defense Motions
Also referred to Judge Ryan
were two motions previously
made by the defense attorney,
Archibald Palmer,
The motions challenged the le
gality of the tiny brunette’s arrect
and asked dismissal of the indict
ment on the plea of double jeop
ardy. The double jeopardy plea
was based on her previous convic~
tion for the “same offenses.”
She was convicted in Washing
ton last June 30 of taking secret
documents with intent to transmit
them to a foreign power. The ex
government girl has been free in
bail pending appeal and her sec
ond trial here. :
Today’s trial is the “first ‘for
Gubitchev, 32-year-old Russian
engineer and suspended United
Nations employe whom Miss Cop
lon said she once loved.
The Washington trial involved
the taking of government secrets.
The trial in New York invclves
the alleged conspiracy of Miss
Coplon and Gubitchev, at meet
ings in this vicinity, to dget the
secrets Into. Russian hands.
Hiss Trial
The second perjury trial of Al
ger Hiss—which also involves al
leged efforts of Russian spies to
get U. S. secrets—is set for Thurs
day.
it, iike the Copion-Gubitchev
trial, will be held in the federal
courthouse where eleven top U. 8.
Communist leaders were sentenced
recently to prison terms and fines.

Barkley’s “Escape”
Speeds Air Probes
Bomber Crew Tells Story Of Near
Collision With Commercial Blimp
WASHINGTON, Nov. 14, — (AP) — Vice President
Barkley’s close call in what a bomber's crew said was a
near collision with a commercial blimp near Washington
appeared certain today to speed up studies on separating
traffic around airports.
The popular “Veep,” who is to be married next Friday,
was unaware of the incident at the time, Crew members
said the Air Force B-17 in which he was a passenger
roared within 50 feet of the blimp with no forewarning it
was there. Barkley told newsmen at Hartford, Conn., last
night he “didn’t know a thing” about it. o
It happened last Thursday night
but did not become known-—ex
cept by those immediately con
cerned-—until last night.
This was the third incident of
its general nature reported in the
area of the Washington National
Airport since Nov. 1, when a Boli
vian fighter plane collided with a
big commercial airliner, killing 55
persons.
The B-IT 7 had picked up Barkley
at Paducah, Ky., late in the after
noon. .
Capt. William R. Humrichouse,
33, hero of 113 combat missiong in
the Southwest Pacific, reported
that despite a special watch by his
crew the four-engine bomber was
above and within 50 feet of the
blimp before seeing it.
Humrichouse did not sge the
twin-engined gas bag but three
members of the crew said they saw
it so close that their engine ex
haust flames reflected from the
shiny fabric.
The B-17 landed without further
incident at National Airport a cou
ple of minutes later.
CAB Probe
The Civil Aeronautics Board
(CAB) which makes air safety
regulations, and the Civil Aero
nautics Administration (CAA),
which interprets and enforces
them, already are busy with the
problem of air traffic separation,
spurred by demands from Con
gress, aviation leaders and the
public. :
The Barkley incident is likely to
get attention during the CAB’s
continuing public inguiry into the
Nov. 1 collision. That was be
tween an Eastern Air Lines DC-4
with 51 passengers and four crew=-
men, and the Bolivian-flown P-38
fighter as both approached the
northeast runway at National Air

Acheson made the statement in

“It was not a failure of Amer=

Of both the Chinese and Ger

“All the help in the world from
