Truce Extension Plan
Drafted by Britain
For Security Council
By the Associated Press
LAKE SUCESS. July 7.—Brit
ain today drafted a Security Coun
cil proposal calling on the Jews and
.Arabs to extend the truce in Pales
tine.
The plan set no expiration date
,for the cease-fire, leaving that is
sue up to Count Folke Bernadotte
in consultation with the two parties.
The new armistice would replace
the four-week truce which expires
''J'Uf'nday.
There were indications that pas
sage of the appeal to the Jews and
Arabs might be held up by Russian
insistence on full-scale debate on
the whole Palestine problem.
Gromyko Accuses Bernadotte.
Soviet Deputy Foreign Minister
, Andrei A Gromyko told the Council
I yesterday that the truce extension
♦ and an examination of Count Ber
nadotte s activities in the Middle
Fast must be considered together.
Mr. Gromyko charged the U. N.
• mediator with exceeding his powers
and attempting to revoke the U. N.
decision to partition the Holy Land
Mr. Gromyko said that under the
banner of the present truce. Count
Barnadolte had thought up new
proposals which were contrary to
previous U. N. decisions. Mr.
Gromyko made no mention of the
Arab and Jewish rejection of the
Bernadotte plan, which includes as
signment of Jerusalem to the Arabs.
Under the partition scheme, Jerusa
lem was to have been an interna
tional city.
Informed quarters believed that
Mr. Gromyko was nettled mostly
over Count Bernadotte's plan for
LOGO volunteers drawn from the
United States. France and Belgium
to serve as a guard force in Jerusa
lem and another contingent from
the same three countries to work
in the port city of Haifa.
Acceptance Indicated.
The United States and France
have indicated acceptance of the
request. Belgium has not yet re
plied.
Mr. Gromyko fought bitterly in
the past against limiting military
representation in the Holy 'Land to
the United States. France and Bel
gium the three nations comprising
the Council's consular truce com
mission. Last month he lost a
lengthy fight to have Soviet mili
tary observe!s join the 93 Ameri
cans. French and Belgians assigned
to truce control duty by Count
Bernadotte. In that case the Coun
cil majority gave Mr. Gromykos
appeal the silent treatment and
joined in abstaining to kill the
Soviet pian in a vote.
The Little Assembly also was to
; go back into session today with
! Korea and the veto on its cal
endar.

in the woods and Marsha collapsed
to the pavement.
Motorist Waved Down.
Dr. Marvin M. Graham, a Balti
more dentist, told police he was
driving along the road when he saw
the Sapperstein children waving
wildly to him. He drove on. but
stopped when he saw a bicycle in
the middle of the avenue.
Then he saw Marsha sitting by
the roadside. She was covered with
blood.
"What's the matter?” he asked
the little girl.
"A colored man hit me." she cried.
"You mean he hit you with a
knife?"
The girl nodded as he carried her
to his car. She died shortly after
ward in the nearby office of a
physician.
While Dr. Graham was taking
Marsha to the doctor's office, an
other passing motorist picked up the
other tw o children who wpre running
down the street. Barbara was
screaming:
"A colored man is stabbing
Ma rsha.”
The scene of the stabbing was on
Glen avenue between Cross Country
and Park Heights avenues in a
sparsely populated area. It is only
a few blocks from where the chil
dren live.
Every police cruiser in Baltimore
was dispatched to the scene and
one of the greatest manhunts in
the history of the city got under
way.
Police Commissioner Hamilton R.
Atkinson said he had more than 250
policemen working -in the search.
Search Continues.
One colored man was arrested by
two patrolmen near the scene of
the stabbing about an hour later as
he was seen emerging from the
woods. Early today a second sus
pect was arrested.
Both of these men are being held
for questioning according to Capt.
Kris-.
Capt. Kriss said the two men
were not considered "too good
suspects. " but answered generally
the description given by the Sapper
stein children.

cargo immediately.
The coal was packed in Army duf
fel bags to facilitate handling.
Meanwhile, Soviet-licensed news
papers published the news that the
Western powers have sent notes to
Moscow protesting the blockade.
One of these papers, the Berliner
Zeitung. seized the occasion to urge
again a new meeting of the Big
Four foreign ministers. It said:*
“If peace still is wanted, there
is only one recourse—negotiate, not
alone over Berlin but over the en
tire German question in which the
conflict of the world powers is find
ing its most important expression.”
The action of the three Western
powers was seen in London as a
recognition that the Berlin dispute
has gone beyond the possibility of a
direct solution by the Big Four
military governors in Germany.
Pravda Charges Secret Deals
To Grab German Land
MOSCOW, July 7 (TP).—Pravda
j today accused the six. powers which

The Western powers decided at a
[ conference last spring to place con
! trol of the Ruhr coal, coke and
steel under an international au
thority representing the United
States. Britain. France. Belgium, the
Netherlands, Luxembourg and Ger
man}' and to establish .a federal
government for Western Germany.
Pravda's Berlin correspondent,
said it has become known in Berlin
that the Benelux countries had—
as a result of the "obedience of their
governments to American dictation"
—been assigned the following:
The Netherlands: To receive the
area embodying the cities of Ben
theim. Venlo and the Island of
Borkum in the Darlart Gulf.
Pravda declared that, these areas
include about three quarters of all
German petroleum, natural gas!
resources and up to 80 per centj
of coal and natural gas.
Belgium: To receive the city of!
Moshau and part of the dictrict of
Schleiden, where the largest Ger

earlier in the year cost the output
of 1.600,000 tons of steel "that can
not be made up."
The Iron Age said the problem of
wage increases to a half-million
steel mill workers “will come to a
head soon” and that another in
crease in steel prices "certainly will
follow." The big steel producers
I earlier rejected a demand for higher
! wages from the CIO United Steel
: workers.
The magazine said an acute short
age of scrap metal was holding down
steel production.
It was estimated more than 50,000
1 workers employed by commercial
coal producers, those that sell on
! the open market, remained off the
job yesterday in Pennsylvania, West
Virginia, Indiana and Virginia.
West Virginia UMW leaders said
the 35,000 commercial miners idle
in that State merely were slow in
starting back after the vacation
period. But a spokesman for the
Western Pennsylvania Coal Opera
tors Association said the 13.000 idle
in 40 commercial pits in its area
; were undoubtedly engaging in sym
pathy walkouts.
"There usually is high absenteeism
after a holiday but these shutdowns
are too widespread to be explained
as absenteeism,” he said.
Urges Lewis to Act.
I . However, the spokesman was
optimistic that the commercial
miners in his area would soon re
turn. He said he had been assured
by UMW leaders that a "favorable
reply will be forthcoming” to a
telegram he sent to Mr. Lewis. The i
message said:
"Notwithstanding the fact this
association has a signed contract
with you, more than 30 mines op
erated by members are on strike
today.
"We demand that you notify the
men to honor the contract and re
i turn to work immediately.”
Steel companies affected by the'
shutdown include United States

Police Discover Bums Living
Under Station House in Comfort
By th« Associated Press
NEW ORLEANS, July 7.—Police
hastily organized a raid on a hobo
jungle here—when they discovered
i it sprawled beneath the first precinct
police station.
To their amazement, they found
(yesterday a maze of passageways
' honeycombed underneath the old
building, with electricity, water and
steam heat conduits tapped for
transient tramps.
The only hobo captured was found
reclining on a mattress and reading
a magazine under a brilliant light.
On a promise of immunity, he
volunteered:
That the place was known as
■‘Hotel de Bastille.”
It had been in existence for
months, perhaps years.
‘‘Guests” entered this haven
nightly with amazing simplicity.
It is accessible from 10 to 12
vents in the sides of the structure.
: Bushes shield the entrance ways,
i Desk Sergt. Edward Fallen
! climbed through the many tunnels,
with the hobo as guide and patrol
men at his heels.
Old clothing, liquor bottles and
other evidences of tramp lodgings
were found.
Police Capt. Arthur Marullo, who
was unable to squeeze his ample
bulk through some of the narrow
tunnels, said it was “easily possible1*
for underworld elements to have
found sanctuary there for years.
Their unidentified guide even
pointed out the “royal suite,” con
taining a neatly dusted davenport,
a bed lamp, lights strung to the
police station wiring, and a supply
of food.
