JWTZ CASE MAY NOT BE DECIDED | UNTIL SEPTEMBER RALEIGH, Aug. 19 — UP,—The question of criminal prosecution in the case of R. L. Fretz, Jr., principal of the Hudson school in Caldwell county, probably will not be decided until early in Septem ber. Attorney General Harry McMul lan said' today that solicitor James C. Farthing of Lenoir had informed him that his Superior Court duties would keep him busy until that time. McMullan last week wrote Farthing asking the solicitor to confer with him on fion of Fritz, who is president of «e question of criminal prosecu fhe N. C. Education association. The State Eoard of Education m August 5 ordered Fritz’s teach ing certificate revoked after an Investigation in which he was charged with mis-applying $1,642, 19 in state funds. Fritz, who promptly repaid the amount, as serted the funds were used to pay teachers for extra work. Meanwhile, the Caldwell county board of education has appointed a committee to come here to ask McMullan and state school offi cials for an “interpretation and clarification’’ on the state board's order revoking Fritz’s teaching Certificate.

At a press conference later, George did most of the talking while his bride-to-be beamed ap provingly. George said he didn’t date tnuch before going ^out with Mrs. Thompson, although be did go steady with a “younger girl” for about six months.” “That wasn’t serious, though,” fee said, adding, “but this is. If marriage isn’t serious I don’t know what is.” George refused to comment on ifhe difference in their ages. He and Mrs. Thompson posed oblig ingly for photographs on the front pteps of their ramshackle home ontil George decided it was time to eat supper. "You can’t live on love alone,” fee said. “You guys will find that out.” Mrs. Thompson separated from £er first husband, Frank, last No vember.

China, in a surprise maneu ver, formally asked the council to adopt The Netherlands’ “third party” plan and the Unites States supported the move. The Chinese plan was handed in as an amend ment to an Australian proposal for sending UN observers to Indone sia to report compliance with the council’s cease-fire order. 2. The United States and Russia split sharply on the whole ques tion, with Gromyko calling for prompt UN arbitration and medi ation of the dispute, as Indone sia asked, and Johnson warning against going any farther than the UN’s cease-fire order of Aug. 1. 3. Sjahrir, who helped organize the Indonesian republic after the Japanese occupation, flatly re jected the Dutch plan and — by implication — turned down Ameri ca’s offer of its “good offices” if those “good offices” rule out UN arbitration of the dispute. Gromyko tore into the United States’ “strange” and “repeated” offers of its good offices to the Indonesian repuDiic. ne said me American pressure showed a “lack of esteem for the Indone sians” and “lack of respect for the security council.” “Not only Indonesia but the se curity council cannot overlook the fact that the United States has economic interests In Indonesia,” Gromyko said. Johnson replied with unusual calm that there was “no question whatever of any pressure on the government of Indonesia.” He said he was sorry that Gromyko “found it necessary to attribute all sorts of motives to us that we never thought of.” Thus the “war of suspicion” be powers, which already has block tween Russia and the western ed UN action in the Balkans and will keep 10 countries out of the world organization this year, seemed certain to prevent any further decisive UN action in In donesia. MARSHALLTALKS (Continued from Page One) lion.*. 2— The general work and abjec tives of the current Inter-Ameri can defense conference here. 3— General world political prob lems. 4 — Argentina’s proposal for a special economic conference. 5—Cuba’s proposal for inclusion of economic aggression in the de fenee treaty and MexicoV pro posal that the Bogota conference next January consider Inter American economic co-operation. Marshall was believed to have pointed out to Bramuglia the ur gent importance of shewing a united front of all 21 American Republics in view of the world situation and the widening split between Russia and the western world. me uruled state* chiel delegate ie expected to follow this up with a similar appeal for unity, and for a non-veto defense treaty, in an address tomorrow before a plenary session of the Inter-Amer ican defense conference. Preparing for the speech, which he spent much of the day w^ing, Marshall conferred with his chief aidee for nearly two hours early this evening, going over detailed points of the defense treaty. He had discussed earlier the general ideas of his speech with the con gressional delegates accompany ing him. Unless he changes his plans, Marshall’s speech i» likely to be one oi fewer than 1,000 words. But it will be of world Impor tance. It is expected that Senora Eva Peron, wife of President Juan D. Peron, will be an honored guest at the session, at the $15,000,000 Quitandinha hotel, to hear the speech. In addition to the happy result of the Marshall - Brarnuglia talk, the conference took a big step forward when its committee no, 2 agreed to adopt, as a working I basis, a Pan-American union sum ' mary of the suggested defense 1 treaty drafts submitted to the con ference In advance by eight na tions. Marshall eaKed en Braroufllu at 10:30 a.m., and they talked for an hour. It was the first such meeting of American and Argen tine secretaries of state at an In ternational conference in sev en years, since the two countries’ foreign policies started to diverge in the early days of World War II. Apparently authoritative sources had said Friday tba1 Mar shall and Bramuglia conferred briefly the night before. But it was made known officially today that this was incorrect. After the talk with Marshall, Bramuglia said the time and place for an economic conference were not important and intimated that he would support the United States plan to postpone talk on economics until the ninth Inter American conference at Bogota, Colombia, next January. Marshall said only that he and Bramuglia “exchanged views on all points of the defense treaty.” But Batin-American sources pre dicted that as the result oi the talk the defense conference was practically ‘‘buttoned up” as re gards major problems. Sen. Arthur H. Vandenberg, R.. Mich., chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, represented the United States on committee no. 2 which adopted the Pan American union num mary as the draft for a defense treaty. The decision to accept the basic draft came after Vanden berg urged the committee to speed up. The committee aleo allotted 48 hours in which delegations might submit amendments to tne basic draft or new proposals. The com mittee will meet again Tiiursday after the 48-hour deadline has been passed. The committee then will be able to start at once on, drafting treaty article for ap proval in plenary conference ses sion. There was no meeting of the conference as a whole today and in intervals between his diplomat ic conferences and talks with his aid«t Marshall wrote his speech for tomorrow. It wae understood that, in his talks with other Secretaries of State Marshall for one thing urg ed against any attempt at making the Inter-American treaty an anti communist pact. He is said to have urged that a display of soli darity was the best bulwark against communism. ATTLEE MAY (Continued from Page One) dercd to discuss the Washington loan revision talks. Attlee himself left Londan today to resume his vacation in Wales. "Mr. Attlee’s health has been de teriorating for some time x x x," the Mail said. "While delegating authority, Mr. Attlee has always insisted on doing a tremendous amount of desk work. This has led to nervous exhaustion. “Without doubt, the present un rest within the labor party, and his inability to placate the would-be rebels in the past three weeks, must have reinforced Mr. Attlee’s decision to heed medical advice." Attlee faced a severe test of his party leadership last week in a private meeting of labor members of Parliament when he was report ed to have won an endorsement of his steel nationalization plan by the narrow margin of four votes, with more than 100 Laborites abstain ing. A group of left-wing Parlia mentarians demanded that the gov ernment proceed at the next ses sion of parliament to nationalize Britain’s vital steel industry. At tlee, informed sources said, won his demand that the cabinet be al lowed to decide when to proceed with the plan in view of the cur rent economic crisis.

RAClAlT (Continued from Page One) termed the incident here as “un fortunate” but said the fellowship would take no action to have the students return here. The organization, which makes its headquarters at Chapel Hill, was described as a church group with a membership of about 450, many of them ministers, teachers and social workers in 13 southern states. The fellowship, Miss Morton said, works through three cor missions: 1. Rural reconstruction; 2. Christian fellowship (racial and religious problems); and 3. church and labor. Two weeks ago, Miss Morton said, the group in summer con ference at Pleasantville, Tenn.. adopted a strong statement oppos ing communism. The executive secretary said the group of white students had been invited here by S. P. Dean, former Negro high school princi pal and head of a cooperative credit union. The original purpose of the students’ work project, Miss Morton said, was to build a community cannery but that their work later was shifted to an office building for the credit union. The whije group came here “in all good faith,” Miss Morton said sne added that she thoughi the building -would be completed by managers of the credit uniion. In Raleigh, Governor R. Gregg Cherry said: "I don’t know of anything I can d-o about it.” He said he had heard about the inci dent before it was reported in newspapers. GEN. ASSEMBLY (Continued from Page One) preceded the vetoes, thundered after the vote that the United States and Australian proposals were only part of * a political game” being played in southeast ern Europe by the countries of the west. Then Gromyko lit the fuse for another fight by insisting that the disposal of the western powers’ resolutions meant automatic dis olution of the temporary UN in vestigating commission being maintained in the Balkans “pend ing a new decision” of the coun cil. Britain’s Sir Alexander Cadogan and deputy American Delegate Hersche V. Johnson shot back that the Russian was mistaken. So did council President Faris El Khouri of Syria. There the question was left hanging as El Khouri tapped the gavel to end the stormy session. In both cases, nine of the seen ity council’s 11 members vuied ‘yes” and Gromyko, supported only by the delegate of Poland, dealt the coup d’etat with the sim ple raising of his right arm. Only 24 hours earlier he had used the great power veto three straight times to keep Portugal. Ireland and Trans-Jordan out of the United Nations. It was the most concerted use of the veto and the most explosive 24-hour period in the UN’s history. It was Gromyko’s third veto in 21 days in the festering dispute over the Balkans. On July 29 he killed the majority - supported American plan to install a UN border watch in Greece for two years under the “peaceful settle ment” section of the UN charter. At the climax of two hours of futile speechmaking by the Slav bloc today he used Balkan veto No. 2 to kill the Australian propo sition which would have branded the situation a threat to peace and, without placing any blame, would have called on all four gov ernments to cease provocations and would have sent a team of UN observers to patrol the Bal kans borders. Forty - five minutes later, Gromyko’s "no” vote killed a similar American proposal which would have directly blamed Al bania, Bulgaria and Yugoslavia for the trouble in northern Greece. POLICE CONTINUE (Contlnnedfrom Page One) police again renewed their ap peal for any persons in hotels, rooming houses or similiar estab lishments who may have known of the birth of a baby in such a place to report the matter to au thorities. However, as time slipped away, detectives said they have reason to believe the child may have brought here by bus and died or been born in another city and brought here by bus and died or was smothered enroute.

SCHEME TO DEFRAUD BANK IS REVEALED BY LOCAL POLICE __ Craig W. Shuping today faces a charge of forgery and false pre tenses, according to police, as the result of attempting to collect funds from the Bank of Wilming :Qn on another man’s account. In a telegram from Salisbury, shuping first asked and procured glOO from the bank, representing limself as Ira A. Hines of Carolina Beach. That was Saturday, E. A Lanev president of the bank told police, they said. A second tele gram was sent last Saturday re questing S250. Bank officials became suspicious and refused the funds, police said Lanev told them. Shuping’s arrest followed. He will face charges in Wilmington. CADIZBLAST (Continued from Page One) search of the tumbled piles of masonry in the city and the ashes of scores of fires, the last of which was not put out until 3:30 p. m. to day. Mayor Sanchez Cossic estimated that 200 were killed and 5.000 to 6.000 injured. Newspapermen sur veying the ruins believed that at least 500 must have died as ex plosions shook the countryside like earth-quakes and fires roared un checked. An undetermined number of 700 workers on the night shift in the torpedo factory, where the explo sion started, were buried. A de- . tachment of soldiers quartered be tween the San Severino and San Jose districts — the two devastated areas — and the main part of the city were reported to have “disap peared.” The main part of Cadiz, which the Phoenicians were supposed to have started building as early as 1100 B. C., escaped serious dam age. It is on a narrow spit that extends about three miles into the sea, while the San Severino and San Jose districts lie between it and the mainland. Mayor Sanchez Cossio said the explosions started in the state tor pedo factory, about 9:30 last night. Near it was a submarine defense base where the mines, of the bail like, horned type, were stored. To the left of the submarine defense base was a shipyard, where a 60. 000.000 Pesota f about $600,0001 tanker under construction was de stroyed. Fires mounted high into the sky. The mines started to explode as more buildings were shaken down and more fires started. They quickly spread into the San Sev erino and San Jose district, vhere 2.000 people, most of them poor, lived. me water supply anu cite.* power failed. In response to fran-! tic appeals from a single radio transmitter, soldiers and police ft om the mainland were rushed in. Rescue workers and firefighters came by ship from nearby ports. But because of the lack of water and continual explosions, it was difficult to fight the fires. Correspondents of a Spanish News agency reported that a ma ternity home was destroyed, that the Cadiz cathedral was damaged and its sacred images broken. They said an old people’s home was destroyed, along with the municipal bull-fighting stadium and that the explosion blew an army officer from his bed into the water. Mayor Sanchez Cossio said it was the worst disaster of its kind in Spain since 1893, when the ship Cabo de Machichaco, loaded with dynamite, blew up in Santander harbor and killed or injured 400 persons. The explosions and fire brought panic among the pedple of the San Severino and San Jose dis tricts. Many of them fled and re ports from neighboring towns said “dozens” of wounded had arrived and were being treated. It still was chaotic in Cadiz to night. Hundreds of rescue workers with picks and shovels were work ing frantically amid the ruins, hoping that some injured might be rescued before they died. Naval experts said it was im possible for them to teil what caused the torpedoes to explode. They said torpedoes were notori ously unstable and required con stant care. For instance, they said, they had'to be constantly wiped to get away drippings they exuded, and failure to wipe them or care lessness in wiping them might have caused an explosion. “In view of so many other pos sibilities,” they said, it would take an exhaustive examination to tell whether there was any indication of sabotage. Cadiz is Spain’s main south .'in port, and in 1940 had a populat on of 87,767. In its day, it was one of the greatest ports in the world. See CADIZ on Page Two QUICK ACTION (Continued from Page one) ported that roving “terrorists” sniped at Dutch patrols. The Indonesians reported clash es with the Dutch along the South Salatiga front, but did not men tion unusual severity in the fight ing. They said there were other clashes with the Dutch near Gom bong and that the Dutch had ad vanced to Poering, which is near the coast and eight miles south east of Gombong. The Dutch said that the fighting appeared to be growing in size and intensity. The Indonesians’ radio at Jogjakarta said the Re public was afraid the Netherlands forces were going to reopen their drive against remaining Indone sian territory. Radio Jogjakarta called upon the United Nations Security Coun cil to send an arbitration commis sion at once to the East Indies. It said that was the only v.ay to settle the dispute. “With deepest anxiety the Re pulibc informs you (The Security Council) that during the last few days Dutch cease - fire violations increased considerably and at several places Dutch forces un dertook well-planned military op erations,” radio Jogjakarta said. “The Republic fears that Dutch forces not only will no longer re spect the cease-fire but will resort to large-scale military operations against the Indonesians with the purpose of occupying all Republi can territory.'* ' HAMBONE’S MEDITATIONS Bv Alley ^-;-"l DOCTort SA^ tF l EAT LESSER I Bfc Mo' rtEALTRT-SUT 1 RECK'N 1 BROTHER JtS' PEEL BETTOR '.l*. 1 Released by The Bell Syn* kJZ ~ iK dica te, Inc) Trad* Mark; Q-JLC-H7 Rec. y. 8.

GENERAL LEE (Continued From Page One) visits to Army-requisitioned hotel* in Viareggio, inspection of the Army’s outdoor prison near Pisa and informal talks with soldiers and officers. Lee said he had invited Maj. Gen. Ira T. Wyche, Inspector Gen eral, here to conduct an investi gation. Before the statement was put in its agreed form by newsmen and Lee, this correspondent asked him to define his basic mission here. Lee replied: “My basic mission is to main tain and supply troops in Italy and in the disputed border pro vince of Venezia Giulia until rati jfication of the peace treaty.” He sidetracked the question con cerning his mission in the event of hostilities involving Russian satellites or Russian troops along the Italian border, smilingly say ing that in such an event “1 would carry on.” Lee and the newsmen framed the general’s statment defining the attacks “an injustice to the U. S.” after a rough draft had called them “a disservice to the country.” Although Lee and his staff re fused officially to respond to ques tions regarding the potential ef fects of the articles, they careful ly pointed out that the stay of U. S. troops in Italy may be indefinite rather than temporary in view of Russia’s delay in ratifying the peace treaty. Unofficially, several high-ranking staffers described the articles “in opportune” in view of "the woc sening relations with Russia.” One staff member, in an off-the-record talk, sugested that the attack may be “communist-inspired.” “It is worth investigating who is interested in knocking down our army in times like these,” this of ficer said. Lee said that the attacks came at a time when he badly needed replacements, money, munitions and supplies, and added that they were “bad for the morale of the entire command.” BRITISH LOAN (Continued From Page One) almost entirely jf civil service technical experts. It also stirred speculation that Britain, faced with the imminent exhaustion of the $3,750,000,000 loan obtained here last year, might be seeking further Ameri can help to carry her through the coming winter months, possibly via the export-import bank. Members of the American dele gation, headed by Treasury Secre tary John W. Snyder, declined to comment on that possibility. The British group stood pat on its orig inal declaration that it had not been instructed to negotiate for a new loan but merely to ask for relaxation of the terms of the ex isting credit. It was presumed, however, that Inverchapel would bring new in structions from his government. Both Snyder and the chief oi the British mission. Sir Wilfred Eady, declined to comment on the I progress of the negotiations to date, but it appeared that both: delegations were marking the time awaiting the ambassador’s arrival. Also shelved temporarily was the thorny question of the new 75 per cent British tax on American movies and Hollywood’s retalia tory embargo on Shipments of American films to Britain. Officials of the Motion Picture association of America said they expected to meet shortly with the British delegation in an effort to work out a compromise. Erie Johnston, president of the MPAA, was expected to come here from Hollywood for the meeting. The Hollywood producers con tend the 75 per cent tax violated the provisions of the American loan agreement, and their position has been supported by British movie-makers who have been un able to produce enough pictures to meet their domestic demand. The British government imposed the tax to help conserve its dwin dling reserve of American dollars. VFW, MOOSEMEN GAIN TRIUMPHS Although LeRoy Towles twirled a six-hit ball game for Senior Fraternity in the first half of a Hanover league doubleheader at Robert Strange field last night, the Moose’s Branch went him one better with a two-hit, 5-0 victory. Branch gave up hits to Towles and Anderson, both singles. In the sec ond game VFW snatched an 11-10 win from Post Office by scoring five runs in the last half of the seventh inning. Branch had an excellent batting support from Thibideau in the opener. The Moose slugger rapped out two singles, a double and a triple for a perfect night at the plate. In addition, he scored three of his team’s runs. Moose notched single tallies in the first, second, third fifth and sixth inning. VFW’s Zackowitz rammed home the tieing and winning runs in the last inning of the second game to earn Waiter Murphree his 11-10 victory. Murphree gave up only six hits to the, Mailmen, but walked six batters to keep himself. Post Office had gone ahead, 10-6, in the first part of the inning with a four-run splurge.
