most important part of the new This a program is believed to be the treaty of friendship and collaboration initialed by deputy foreign ministers of the three powers at Athens most significant development in the yesterday. I Observers term it the Balkan area since Yugoslavia was read out of the Cominform in 1948. Authoritive sources here say the pact involves no actual commitof military force, as would an outright alliance. But it goes as far possible in that direction by providing for continuing military discussions on how the million tough fighting men of these three countries could team together against an ag gressor. These discussions could take the form of preparing plans and exchanging information which would be of benefit in case of an attack against any one of the three.

President Marshal Tito of Yugoslavia, is reported still cautious, however, about divulging military secrets, even to his new partners. The text of the treaty has not been published yet, and presumably will not be unti lit has been formally signed by the three foreign ministers. The Greek foreign ministry, however, described it yesterday as co sisting of 10 articles in which the three countries restate their resolve to defend their independence and territorial integrity and pledge united efforts in organizing against aggression. This analysis said it was imperative to take measures to ensure peace and security in this area in accordance with the United Nations charter. The contracting parties agree to settle disputes among themselves peacefully, to take no action or make no commitment that would be disadvantageous to one another, to continue collaboration through their general staffs and to take joint defense measures in case of an provoked attack against any one of them.

Informed sources here said the agreement was in general terms regarding mutual security, without making any actual commitment of fighting men. This is because Turkey and Greece could make no promise to Marshal Tito that migni involve their other partners in the North Atlantic Treaty Organiaztion (NATO). Count Killed In Weinberg Perjury Case By KARL BAUMAN Washington, Feb. 26 (A) The three perjury charges against Dr. Government dropped one of its Joseph W.

Weinberg today but the key count in indictment survived defense attacks. U. S. District Judge Alexander Holtzoff ruled the Government had produced enough evidence to justify submitting to a jury the question of whether the scientist lied when he denied ever having been a Communist. The count which the Government dismissed charged that Weinbergthe "Scientist of a 1949 Congressional investigation swore falsely when he denied knowing Steve Wilson, a Communist Party functionary, before they were brought face to face at a hearing of the House UnAmerican Activities Committee.

Hitz Assistant told U. reporters S. he Attorney asked William dismissal of this charge because he felt the Government had presented a strong case on the two others. Judge Holtzoff indicated he might throw out the third count, however. This accuses Weinberg of having lied when said that, with one exception, he never had attended any gathering which he regarded as a Communist meeting.

Judge Holtzoff observed that Weinberg, in his testimony before the House committee, never made a flat denial that he had attended more than one Communist meeting. The judge turned down "for the present" a defense motion to knock this count, but he told Weinberg's lawyers they could renew it later.

who spoke on the legal side of the subject. He called atention to the fact that the courts were for the protection and help of children and young peopie who were found in opposition to the law. He explained the laws which governed such matters called for recreational, religious and school activities as a means of prevention. "The home," he said, "is the most important factor in preventing what is commonly called juvenile delinquiency." He called for better homes and parents who had time for their children. At the conclusion of the talk by Sutton, Miss Dorothy Shipman showed a motion picture which illustrated the points he had brought out in his speech.

Guests of the Twentieth Century Club at this meeting included Mrs. H. B. Wilkinson and Mrs. B.

They fear failure of a conference would increase the danger of war. Stalin said at Christmas that he was ready to cooperate in seeking a settlement of the Korean war. There was speculation at the time that might mean a beginning.

But Delegate Lodge's statement before the United Nations, that there settlement was in no view use of talking Russia's about con- tinuing attitude, indicates the State Department has dropped this speculation. That means they would expect Russia to enter any peace talks purely for propaganda purposes, as has been the invariable case at all East-West conferences since the war. recently chose a fellowtraveler from India as the that he thought Eisenhower might piece for spreading the impression not be such a bad guy, but that the President was trapped among a host American capitalists hoping for war profits. That left the door open between Stalin and Eisenhower, whether or not Stalin believes either part of the premise. Eisenhower opened at his Wednesday press conference." But he included the usual Western restrictions.

A meeting would have to promise some success, and any agreements produced would have to be self-enforcing. No more agreements without guarantees. And no more compromises, Secretary Dulles added Thursday. All this talk of a meeting was going on against the background of fan expected crisis in East-West relations over Germany. Reports from Berlin credit Russia with planning drastic action in a last minute attempt to block West German ratification of Western European Defense Western proposed.

observers gave some credence to a report that Russia would withdraw her troops from East Germanyhaving, first secured her position there through puppets as she did in Korea -and then propose unification of all Germany under a government in which East German Communists would be very powerful. This ability to play with the reunion issue has always been a powerful card in Russia's hands. This play could be partly foreby an American call for conferences not only on Germany and Korea, but on the whole conflict between East and West. It would offset Russian propaganda among the world's unaffiliated peoples that she seeks peace while America seeks war. It would put Stalin in the position of fighting to hold his illegal postwar whereas the Allies would be raining for nothing except peace and liberty for enslaved peoples.

There is hardly any hope that concrete results might be produced, and actual, effective agreements signed. This failure might produce greater dispair among peoples who hope so persistently for some peaceful outcome of the present conflict. Whether failure would actually bring war any nearer, as some of the diplomats believe, seems to me to be open to considerable question. Check Charges Said Adjusted Richmond police last night reported to Hampton police that charges involving five worthless checks against a man who recently moved from Richmond to Hampton "has been adjusted with satisfaction." The man, Donald R. LaFerriere of 3111 Darby was held by Hampton police on a fugitive warrant.

Immigration officials today ordered held without bond a Mexican actress starring in a motion picture being made by two Left-Wing groups. Joseph Minton, district U. S. Immigration officer, said he has ordered Rosaura Revueltas held for her hotel in custody of a matron until a formal hearing Monday. In addition to formal charges that Miss Revueltas entered the country illegally, Minton said "we may develop further grounds at the hearing.

In view of what has ben going on up there (at Silver City, N. and the people involved 1 think anyone has the right to assume there might be other angles to this case." The "other angles" have to do with the makers the film and its subject matter. Cooperating in the filming are: 1. The International Union of Mine, Mill and Smelter Workers (Ind.) which was kicked out of the CIO after Mine-Mill leaders refused to swear they weren't Communists 2. A group of Hollywood artists some of whom have declined to answer congressional questions about alleged Red connections who have been barred from Hollywood studios.

As for the subject matter of the film, Rep. Jackson of House Un-American Activities Committee Tuesday charged on the House floor that the picture "is a new weapon for Russia deliberately designed to inflame racial hatreds and to depict the United States as the enemy of all colored peoples." Miss Revueltas plays the wife of a mine worker involved a strike. The picture is being filmed with many of the actors drawn from the ranks of the Spanish-American miner in the Silver City, N. area. The area was for 15 months the scene of a bitter strike against the Empire Zinc strike in which many were injured in picket line battles.

The government charges in the warrant for her detention that Miss Reveultas entered the country with an invalid passport, without a proper visa and without passing inspection at the border. Miss Revueltas insisted her passport and visa were in perfect order for a year's stay in the U. S. She said Immigration officials failed to inpect her papers when she entered the country Jan. 4, although she offered them.

Minton said Miss Revueltas has the alternative of leaving the country and reapplying for admission or presenting her case at the hearing Monday. Meanwhile, the film stood to lose its title as well as its star. John T. Coyle, vice president of Cathedral Films, Burbank, said the film's title, "Salt of the Earth," is the same as one he used for a picture made in 1948. He said he has asked his legal department to, notify the Silver Citv movie-makers.

Red Chinese Fix Security Along Coast By SPENCER MOOSA Taipeh, Formosa, Feb. 26-(P) Red China today was reported moving masses Chinese from the south east coast to create a securi-: ty belt against Nationalist invasion, which a woman guerrilla leader says the mainland eagerly awaits. Reports which top Nationalist leaders consider founded on fact say substantial numbers of Chinese civilians living along the coast already are being forced to move into the interior to prevent their aiding any attacking forces. The Communists are moving up reinforcernents along but the coast, these say, they are not coming from the battlefields of Korea. They are said to be from garrisons in China's interior.

Included in the reinforcements, say unconfirmed reports are armed patrol craft, which have been brought down from north China. Presumably they will be used to guard against Nationalist commando raids and to protect Red shipping along the coast. The reported movement of Red patrol craft to the southeast coastal regions has caused no concern here that the Communists are contemplating blows against Formosa. NaItionalist officials do not believe the Communists have the strength for an invasion. Huang "two-gun" Pa- Mei, famed woman guerrilla leader, told a news conference that mainland Chinese would rise in support of the Nationalist once a full-fledged invasion is launched.

The Communists are bitterly hated and could be "easily crushed," she asserted. Miss Huang gained her "two gun" reputation as a guerrilla er against Japan in World War II. She has just returned from the Ta Chen Islands, about midway between Shanghai and Formosa, where she supervised activities of women guerrillas. Gov. K.

C. Wu of Formosa, meanwhile, has revealed that the provincial government is gearing its operations for the day when the Nationalists return to the mainland. He made the disclosure to the Formosa provincial assembly Wednesday, but declined go into details for security reasons.

Tanker Blushing: Runs Out Of Fuel AndDrops Anchor Norfolk, Feb. an oil tanker is capable blushing, one of them must have turned a rosy red in the Atlantic off the North Carolina coast. It was that embarrassing.

It ran out of fuel. The Coast Guard reported that the Cities Service Company's SS Archer Hope radioed her predicanent at 11:25 A. M. to the Fort Macon Coast Guard Station and gave her position as 30 miles south of Cape Lookout. She is light and bound for Texas.

She requested help. Some fuel. But her captain also reported that, to make matters worse, he had dropped anchor and then the auxiliary power plant failed. Now there's no way to get up the anchor. The cutter Agassiz was dispatched from Morehead City to the rescue -either to give a tow or to aboard 600 gallons of fuel oil, which is enough to get the ship to Morehead City for a better supply.

The Agassiz was due to rendezvous with the tanker around 10 P. M. tonight, but the weather report indicated aid might not be possible until tomorrow morning. The wind was freshening and small craft warnings were up in the area. The of transferring the fuel under such conditions isn't easy.

and Huntington Ave. 'Anti' Votes Are Sought By Hatchett Norfolk, Feb. 26 torial candidate W. Russell Hatchlett put out the welcome mat for Democratic anti-organization votes opened his campaign here call for higher standlard of public education in Virginia even if the State must resort to issuing bonds to accomplish it. In his first public speech since announcing his candidacy, former Virginia Beach town manager said "some newspapers already have dubbed me the anti-candidate and I guess I will have to wear it throughout the campaign.

He spoke at a luncheon meeting of the Women's Democratic Club of Norfolk. Hatchett told the women that United States Senator Harry P. Byrd, as head of the conservative wing of the State Democratic party, has made a great governor. In faci, the candidate added, he voted tor Byrd in all elections except the Democratic primary when the senator was opposed by Francis Pickens Miller. "I believe in those tenants Byrd has prescribed on the national level," he said, "but Virginia today--with its many complexes- cannot be run from Washington even with six Byrds and a Taft thrown in." The decision of Nelson County Delegate Robert Whitehead not to seek the governorship, he said, is a thing of regret.

"The State needs more Robert Whiteheads," Hatchet said of the legislator who long has been the voice of opposition to the organization in the State legislature, "and I'm sure he would have brought something wonderful to the forum of this campaign." He told after his speech that with "Whitehead out of the race, he could see little prospect of anti-organization forces finding solace in supporting either former Representative Thomas B. Stanley, of Stanleytown, or State Senator Charles R. Fenwick, of Arlington, both of whom are seeking the governorship. Touching on major planks in his campaign platform, Hatchett said "somewhere along the line some one has missed the boat" in keeping public education standards abreast of the times. He said studies now show educational facilities available for the children of the State differ widely throughout the political subdivisions of Virginia.

Army, yesterday announced the closing of the disposal area in the open waters of Hampton Roads west of Fort Wool. In making the announcement, Col. W. F. Powers, district engineer.

stated that permits authorizing dumping in the area will no longer be issued, and that will permits which have not expired be modified eliminate the permission to use that area. For the past 12 years, practically all material dredged by bucket and hopper dredges in the waters serving the Ports of Newport News, NorPortsmouth and Hampton, including material dredged by the Corps of Engineers in providing and maintaining major channels has been deposited in the specified area. A hydrographic survey of the fill area made on Feb. 9 indicates that the deep holes which formerly existed will be soon filled up to a level which will retain navigable capacity of the waters land to prevent injury to navigation. Colonel Powers said that future permits will require dredged material to be deposited at sea off Cape Henry until proopsed construction of a disposal area at Craney Island materializes.

London, Feb. 26. -(P)- Home Secretary Sir David Maxwell Fyfe said today American servicemen and their farnilies have given generously to aid Britain's flood victims. He told the House of Commons the U. S.

Air Force had contributed 11,749 pounds "In addition, he said, "there have been generous individual gifts from members of these forces both of clothing and money. I am glad to have this further opportunity of expressing our great appreciation of the help we have received." xx U.S. Forces Generous To Victims Of Flood Navy Limits Enlistments Of Reserves Washington, Feb. Navy, confronted with a situation in which its reserve is filling up with draft-age, inexperienced men, has clamped a restriction on taking in more such reservists at this time. questions, that last month the Navy Officials said today, in answer to was able to enlist only about 25 per cent of the applicants for regufar Navy service.

This was because the law compels the Navy to put a reservist on active duty when he applies and if a billet exists for him. In effect, this means that a draftage man, without previous military service, who has joined the reserves can demand active duty and thus prevent the Navy from signing on a regular enlistee for full, fouryear tour. An enlisted reservist, who is not a veteran, is eligible for release upon completing 24 months of active duty subsequent to start of the Korean war or upon completion of normal enlistment plus nine months, whichever occurs first. To hold down the enlistments in the reserve of men who are drafteligible or will become eligible in the near future, the Navy has set a nation-wide quota of 2,000 men per month, effective February 1. The quota is pro rated among the naval districts.

The Navy wants to keep its reserves well supplied with veterans who have ratings as experienced men instead of acquiring a high-percentage of untained, "boot" material. The Navy estimates that one fourvear enlistee in regular Navy is worth three inexperienced reservists in efficiency and cost. Navy experts point, as do the other ices, to the months of training needed for a reservist compared with the relatively short time remaining in which he will be of value to the service. No quota of any kind is being imposed on enlistment of reservists who have previous naval experience. Harbor Tug Strike Ends Norfolk, Feb.

26-P-Norfolk's tugboat strike is over. It ended tonight at 11 o'clock, with union and company representatives agreeing on a new contract. The crewmen of the port's major towing companies will return to their boats Saturday at 7 A. M. following signing of the contracts tomorrow, Announcement of the strike's end came from officials of Local 333-B, United Marine Division, AFL International Longshoremen's Association, and the Curtis Bay Towing Company and McAllister Brothers, Inc.

Stevenson Continued From Page One hower who, in his Feb. 2 message dealing with his orders to deneutralize Formosa, said Truman's 1950 order to the Seventh Fleet had the effect of requiring the Navy Ito serve "as a defensive arm of Communist China." As in his New York speech Feb.

14, Stevenson said Democrats as a minority party should give the new President their good will, good wishes prayers. "In defeat," he asserted, "we can make ourselves servants of the national purpose for peace. There is greater or better political desno tiny." He went a bit further in cautioning his own party when, with apparent reference to GOP shouts of "Truman war" in references to Korea in last campaign, he expressed thee hope Democratic orators would not take leaf from recent history by "mouthing nonsense about 'Eisenhower's "Rather we stay out of office forever than win it back that way," he declared. Hitting at those who criticized the Truman administration on Korea, Stevenson said: are leaders among us who would have you forget our successes; who exploit frustration and impatience; who tell you that we already are at total war and there is little to be risked by enlarging the war to the mainland of China. "There are those, too, who offer false hope of quick and easy policies which glitter to the eye but crumple in the hand -when our need is for policies of iron: dull and spectacular, perhaps, but strong and He said again, as he did in the campaign, that there are "no magic, cheap, short solutions to global conflict long in the He added Republicans must not be goaded to produce quick miracles and dazzling successes, when unity is needed.

"which is now in the East as 'Homburg this referred of to President, instead Eisenhower's of a a tall silk hat for his inauguration. Stevenson, who is going on a world tour starting March 2 and hopes to visit Korea, concluded his address with a review of existing world tension and a bit of advice to Americans. He said: "The tensions and difficulties may get worse before they get better in Europe, in the Middle East, in Asia-all around this world, divided and in revolution.

Millions of peoples are so sorely puzzled as many of us here at home.

Anticipated Opposition To Toll Road Richmond, Feb. The president of the Virginia Interstate Turnpike Corporation said today opposition to a through-Virginia superhighway proposed by his company was about what had been expected.

"Some opposition, largely, from people operatin filling stations and motels has come up everywhere turnpikes have been proposed and constructed," John J. Wicker Richmond attorney, said. Meanwhile, the protest movement against the proposed limited access toll road slowed down today as Prince William County officials indicated the county would probably support the project and the Spotsylvania County board of supervisors postponed action on a resolution expressing opposition. Boards of supervisors of three in the Fredericksburg area-Chesterfield, Caroline and Stafford-have already taken a stand against the superhighway. And a group of businessmen from King George, Caroline, Stafford and Spotsylvania Counties yesterday formed a committee to fight plans of Wicker's corporation.

The toll road; as envisioned by interstate, would stretch 200 miles from near Washington, D. South to the North Carolina border. Cost of construction was estimated at 200 million dollars. The project has yet to be approved by the State Highway Commission and action on such approval is not expected for several months. At Quantico, J.

F. Fick, chairman of of the supervisors, Prince said William two County other board members agreed with him that the superhighway would be a good thing. "We have entirely too much traffic on Route 1," he said, "and I think that anything we can do to gut rid of some of the througa traffic should be done."
