Himmler Approached Comft,
The Swedish nobleman was chosen
under provisions of a resolution
approved by the U. N. Special As
sembly on Palestine in its final
minutes last Friday. The vote was
31 to 7, with 16 abstentions.
His principal task will be to try i
to get a peaceful adjustment In I
Palestine.
In April, 1945. Heinrich Himmler
approached Count Bernadotte with
a German offer to surrender to
Britain and the United States.
The nobleman conveyed the offer
to those powers but they refused,
insisting that Germany must sur
render to Russia also. This was
done a few days later.
Appeal Made for Peace.
The American - French - Belgian
Consular Truce Commission reported
from Jerusalem today that nothing
short of United Nations force could
stop fighting in the Holy City.
The report was read out in the
Security Council by Alexandre Pa
rodi of France, this month's Council
president. Similar reports on the
gravity of the situation in Jerusalem
and the need for international pres
sure to stop fighting were read In
the Council yesterday.
The consuls, apparently hopeless
of achieving a truce, said the only
effective measure to bring about
peace in Jerusalem is employment
of a neutral force able to impose
its will on the warring Jews and
Arabs. •

stating his support of the Amp i'-’n

U. S. Restricts Entry
Of Soviet Missions
Into Zone of Reich
By th« Associated Press
BERLIN. May 21— American oc
cupation authorities retaliated to
day against Russian border-crossing
taboos. They restricted the entry of
Soviet missions to the American
ztfiie of Germany to a single frontier
point.
American officials said last night’s
ruling was made by European com
mand headquarters at Frankfurt
because the Russians decreed that
the American military mission sta
tioned at Potsdam could cross into
the Soviet rone only at Helmstedt.
The Americans responded by not
ifying members of the four Rus
sian missions in the American rone
that they, too, could cross only at
Helmstedt.
Helmstedt Is in the British rone
on the Soviet border and is on the
highway linking Berlin w'ith the
west. - -V
The American mission previously
was allowed to cross the Soviet rone
border at any point,
American authorities emphasized
that the action does not mean a
closing of the border between the
United States and Soviet zones.
They called it merely a reciprocal
move affecting only official Soviet
missions.
The American Military Govern
ment in Berlin announced that Ger
mans in the American sector will be
“protected against molestation and
intimidation" by persons seeking
signatures for a Communist-in
spired national plebiscite on a uni
fied Germany.
The petitions already had been
banned in the western section of
Germany. The annoifticement said
the plebiscite is “needless and
pointless.”

cers was present to testify in sup
!port of the plan.

restal, backed a plan which Sen

reaching a peak of $60,000,000 in
1980.
At present, there is no retirement
pay for Reserve officers. Thousands
of Reserve officers are now on active
duty, some since before the war.

From Virginia Mine
After Roof Collapse
ly AuacietoS Pr«u
DANTE, Va., May 21.—Rescue
crews early today brought to the
surface the last of six miners killed
last night after a roof section col*
lapsed in the Clinchflald Coal Co.'s
No. 2 mine.
Tons of coal, earth and debris
buried the miners alive as they
worked in the mine tunnel four
miles from the entrance. There was
no explosion.
Mine Dispatcher J. M. Smith said
the roof collapse simply “blew the
coal out and over the men working
near it."
Pour other miners, working some
400 yards away in the corridor, were
slightly injured in the accident.
They were brought from the shaft
about midnight after four hours’
entombment.
Hundreds of persons, some of
them relatives of the victims, but
many Just curious spectators, lined
the mine entrance as the bodies
were brought up by rescue crews
working in relays.
The dead were listed by Mrs.
Smith as Euris Artrid, Arnold Vick
ers, Harold Park, Oakley Creger,
Troy Phillips, and a miner named
Rasnlck. All were from the Dante
area.
Dante is In Russell County, near
the Dickinson County line In South
west Virginia.
Mr. Smith said Joe Rasnlck, be
lieved to be the father of one of
the victims, was foreman of the
section.
