In Mau Mau Plot Held NAIROBI, Kenya (AP) Seven ty-two more members of the Ki-kuyu tribe were arrested yesterday by the British in a troop-backed drive to stamp out the dread Mau Mau secret society. Thirty-eight were taken in a roundua. by two companies of the king's African rifles in the Thika area, some 30 miles outside Nairobi.

Twenty-eight others were round ed up after two Mau Mau oath- taking ceremonies were held on the slopes of Mount Kenya, 50 miles north of Nairobi. Six were caught trying to break into an African house. Overnight the Mau Maus, who swear by blood to wipe out the whitt man in this British colony, were blamed for three more kill ings, bringing the toll of recent months to 45. The British launched a crack down last week by flying In a battalion of Lancashire Fusiliers and sailing in a cruiser to reinforce police making mass arrests under a state of emergency. Most of those arrested so far are members of the Kikuyu tribe, who make up about a million of Kenya's 5 million population.

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) A group experts oiiered advice here yesterday on how physically handicapped teenagers can be help ed to get along in the world with out running up medical bills that would wreck the average family's income. Things that can be done in the home can improve, to some extent at least, the lot of virtually all crippled children, these experts said. They addressed the National Society of Crippled Children and Adults. The handicapped youngster who can be trained to take care of his personal appearance has a good chance of bemg able to get along with people, said Harriet C. Johnson, medical social worker of the University of California school of medicine.

AN ESPECIALLY pretty dress or a super hair-ao may improve the emotional and social status of crippled adolescent girl, Miss Johnson said. Despite her handicap, the girl wants to be attractive to the boys. Also, the girl's appearance may count heavily when it comes to her being accepted by the boys and girls generally in her age group. Good grooming will help the crippled boy but fancy clothes won't do so much for him, Miss Johnson said. He wants masculine strength and independence.

If they are unattainable, the boy probably should have special guidance to help him find substitutes for these, Miss Johnson added. FOB THE CEREBRAL palsied child who cannot talk, diet can be a part of the home treatment, said Dr. Harold B. Westlake, director of the speech and hearing clinic at Northwestern Univerlity. Foods which are especially effective in developing the muscles of speech can be used to advantage.

Davies, San Francisco oil man. yesterday bought for $18,360,000 the controlling interest in Amer ican President lanes, globe-girdling steamship firm long in the hands of the government.

The sale of the company, which operates 27 ships, ended a court battle between the R. Stanley Dollar interests and the government. The fight reached into the su preme court and last year saw Secretary of Commerce Sawyer cited for contempt. Dollar told a reporter he was satisfied with the outcome. He said he had put in a bid just to guard against leaving half the stock in government hands.

If nobody had made a successful bid. the government and Dollar would have split the stock evenly. Sawyer said in a statement: "I am gratified at the proceed ings. The figure of the successful bid was high enough to give the government more than $9 million, an amount in excess of the highest bid of some million offered for the entire stock in dispute when litigation started back in 1945." For their money, Davies and his group got a line which dominates trans-Pacific shipping and operates the only round-the-world continuous shipping service. American President Lines owns 17 ships, all named for presidents, and, Davies said, has 10 other vessels on charter from the governmert.
