Russia Warns Norway Against Atomic Bases OSLO, Norway Soviet Union is widening and stepping up its word battle with its Scandinavian neighbors. The latest blast was directed at Norway, a letter from Soviet Premier Bulganin warning the Norwegian govern- wegian government against allowing NATO to establish atomic bases in Norway.

Teamsters West Coast union dues money was "siphoned" from the union via Shefferman to Beck. Beck's son, and a relative of Becks wife, Norman Gessert. Shefferman, though saying he is a management consultant to some 300 firms, also is a staunch admirer of Beck. He gave the Senate committee practically its only good word on Beck all day. Shefferman conceded that he'd paid Beck $24,500, had profited handsomely from furnishing the -million-dollar Teamsters new marble and glass national headquarters building in Washington, and bought a half interest in a Bethesda, home Beck owned.

"I didn't want to buy a house, it was just that Dave Beck asked me to," Shefferman said. Among other tilings Beck refused to say Tuesday whether or not told the truth on a nationwide television program March 17 when he said he "borrowed" some $300,000 to $400,000 in union without interest but has fully re paid the amount.

New Mexico stockmen said they would have been better off without the snow. Some lost their entire herds in the mountainous drifts. The six-state high plains area which got up to 14 inches of snow and drifts as high as 30 feet still jwas digging out today. But trains were starting to move again and at least the main roads were open, except in western Kansas. Thirteen persons in three cars and a truck were uncovered Tuesday night by a road crew on U.S.

50 near Garden City, Kan. They had been snowbound three days but all were reported in good condition. They had been carrying some food. The six-state area where the storm was a full-blown blizzard- southwest Nebraska, western Kansas, eastern Colorado, northeast New Mexico and the Oklahoma and Texas Panhandles makes up a large part of the plains area hard hit by five years of drought. But the blizzard's 70-and 80-mile winds scoured much of the op and grazing land almost bare as they piled the snow up in high drifts.

Crop experts in Kansas, Oklahoma, Nebraska and Texas said the snowfall br i ed the drought picture but there was not near enough moisture to break it. Oklahoma reported heavy damage to peach, pear and plum trees which were in full bloom when the blizzard hit. Th weekend storm lost most of its power and size as it moved into the northeast section of the country. Precipitation extended from Lower Michigan through Ohio and eastward through Pennsylvania and Maryland. Snow fell in northern areas of the wet belt from Michigan through the western half of Pennsylvania and rain and drizzle was reported in other sectors.
