The man said he was calling for a radio program and the right answer was worth twice whatever she had in her purse, which happened to be $64. Soon came a messenger with a check for $128. But he said he had to take Mrs. Ferrell's money back to the studio for verification. He gave her a check for $64 to cover the transfer.

Today Mrs. Ferrell told police both checks bounced. And the radio studio said it had never heard of the pnv gram. Allies Face Handicap In Korea Talks Will Carry Little Bargaining Power To Political Parley By J. M.

ROBERTS JR. AP News Analyst No matter how hard the State Department experts work in the 88 days left to them, the United States and her allies will carry very little bargaining power to the political conference on Korea. When you think of what the United Nations want a unified Korea under a democratic governmentand then consider what they have to offer, the difficulties appear insurmountable. In the first place, they will barely be able to ask anything more than free elections in a unified by Benjamin Hochberg, owner of the business. Smith, who starts his new duties Wednesday, succeeds Norman Brettschneider.

He formerly was a salesman for the Miner Nash Co. He is a graduate of Windham High School in the class of 1942. He was a three-sport star there.

Palau announced; tn in Nehru Hails AmityShown By Pakistan Says Good Progress Made on Problems At Karachi Parley NEW DELHI, India, July 27 UP There will have to be more digging on problems between India and Pakistan, but Prime Minister Nehru said today he is very happy over the friendliness shown him at his conference with Prime Minister Mohammed Ali in Karachi. "We have gone ahead a good deal on some problems and I hope they are nearer a solution," the Indian leader told newsmen on his return, from the weekend parley. "Kashmir is the toughest problem." Both Claim State Both India and Pakistan claim the storied border state of Kashmir. It has been the principal bone of contention between the two countries sines Pakistan split from India in 1947 to form a separate nation in the British Commonwealth.

Asked by a reporter whether a common approach to Indian-Pakistani disputes had evolved, Nehru said: "What good does it do to talk of an approach to problems? The problems are still there." Agree in Principle The Prime Minister noted that there had been one agreement in principle. As set forth in a communique issued in Karachi, he and Mohammed Ali agreed that Pakistani enclaves (territory) within India's Cooch Behar state and Indian enclaves in East Pakistan should be exchanged. "Terms and conditions of such exchanges are to be considered further," the communique said.

They can presume, but not be sure, that free elections would produce a non-Communist government. Would Be Concession But even free elections with an uncertain result would still be a major Communist concession, and one they will not make without payment in kind.

The big thing the Communists are believed to want are: 1 Membership in the United Nations for the Chinese Reds. 2 Reunification of Formosa with all China, Communist controlled. 3 Relaxation of the restrictions on trade with China. 4 Removal of all foreign troops from Korea. This is more the order in which the demands represent headaches for the United Nations than their importance1 to the Communists.

It is rather notable that the removal of troops is the one specific matter which the Reds insisted must be settled at the conference. The other three represent Allied assessment of Red desires as based on their propaganda. As the U. S. diplomats begin their studies of the problems they lean toward an initial attempt to keej some of them off the agenda entirely.

That is because they have no answers to make except "No." Hand Seen Tied With regard to U. N. member ship, the State Department's hands 'are largely tied by resolutions adopted both by the Senate and me unuea aiaies. ine neas wouia then have a hope that the United States, standing on its long-expressed principle that the veto should not apply in U. N.

membership matters, might not use it if other nations wanted to push Red China into a seat. That hope does not exist now. Formosa Tough Issue U. N. commitments to the Nationalists on Formosa make it impossible to bargain that island's future for the sake of Korean uni fication without trampling many 'of the same principles which were involved in the Korean War itself.

The only hope of averting a big split on this point is to keep it off the agenda. The matter of the withdrawal of troops is more a matter ofj agreement on methods than of bar- Raining since it will require sim- "ai u-v siaes. insieaa of an attempt to swap one thing for another. Of the four points, that leaves the trade curbs as the only point where the Allies will have something to offer, and that won't be much. The Allies could hardly consider giving China any better terms on this point than they give other parts of the Communist sphere.

Since the restrictions on China trade are stiffer than those on Russia and Eastern Europe, there is some margin for adjustment, but a margin only. In this atmosphere, it is quite likely that the United States will approach the Korean problem from now on as one which, like that of Germany, will not be settled except in a general settlement of East-West issues.

Walter Ulbricht, the party boss was plainly not satisfied with the official scalps of ex-Justice Minister Max Fechner and ex-security Minister Wilhelm Zaisser already slung from his belt. Backed by Moscow as the leader of East Germany's long-term Sovietization, Ulbricht appeared on the verge of firing these suspected rivals Sided With Zaisser Acting Foreign Minister Anton Ackermann, who sided with Zaisser in a move recently to force Ulbricht's own retirement.

Bernd Weinberger, minister of construction of transport equipment and agricultural machinery whose real assignment has been whose eal assignment has been armament production. E1H Schmidt, estranged wife of Ackermann and head of the state trade and supply commission with the rank of minister. May Be Confirmed Today The new purge may be confirmed tomorrow when the Volks-kammer (Parliament) convenes to hear a government declaration, including a repetition of its two-year-old proposal for direct negotiations with the Bonn Republic in Germany's reunification. The Communist demand for "all-German talks" has been turned down every time by western Chancellor Konrad Adenauer. He holds the eastern regime to be illegal and insists the first step to German unity is the restoration of political freedom in the Soviet zone.

Exploiting Fechner's softness to strikers in the June 17 revolt, Ulbricht had him thrown into jail two' weeks ago. Then Zaisser was "relieved" from office and his state security ministry, with 100,000 agents, was reduced to a mere secretariat in the interior ministry. Cracking the whip last week end at a Communist central committee session, Ulbricht stripped Zaisser of his nolitburO membership and expelled Fechner from the party. $15,000 Fire "Damages, Plant in Eagleville MANSFIELD.

The fire broke out about 5 a.m. (EST) and six companies of volunteer firemen were summoned. One portion of the four-story building was damaged severely. Despite the intensity of the flames, no one was injured. 15,232 Bay Staters Seek Korea Bonus BOSTON.

Court Releases Ex-NaziNaumann, Accused In Plot KARLSRUHE, Germany, July 28 W-The West German federal supreme court today ordered the release of Dr. Werner Naumann, one of six former Nazis seized last Jan. 15 by British police as alleged plotters against the Bonn government. Naumenn, a staunch wartime Nazi who was with Hitler in the last days of Berlin, was freed by the court pending possible German prosecution. Similar action was taken in the case of the other five.

The court announced Naumann should be released since he could not leave the country nor destroy evidence Ihe British collected against him. It ruled that "although there is no urgent suspicion against Naumann, there is still considerable suspicion that he committed a crime of trying to found an anti-constitutional organization." Under German law, a suspect can be held in jail without bond when there is "urgent suspicion" he committed a major crime. "Procedures against Naumann will be continued," the court added. The six were arrested in midnight raids by British agents in Duesseldorf and Hamburg. The British claimed the six were masterminding a "potentially very dangerous" Nazi plot to seize power in Western Germany.

A seventh was arrested after the January raid and he is still in custody. The British turned the case over to German authorities. Old Marriage Records Revealed by Curiosity PHILADELPHIA, July 28 tih Curiosity may, as they say, kill the cat, but not an archival examiner. Dr. Abe Feldman had been trying for some time to find out what was in a mysterious locked compartment in the mayor's vault at City Hall.

Dr. Feldman not only couldn't find any record of what was in the compartment, he couldn't even find the key. Finally, the suspense became too great. He hired a locksmith. Even City Archivist Charles Hughes was astounded by what Dr.

Feldman found in the forgotten vault: Ten ornate, leather-embossed volumes. They contained among other things, the marriage records of the city from 1857 to. 1894. That wouldn't have surprised either Feldman or Hughes except for one thing: the issuance of marriage licenses was not authorized by the State Legislature until 1885. Clash Over Stock "I am an employe and a servant of the company, and not one of its owners," MacArthur said.

Gilbert raised his voice above the resulting applause to say rw would introduce a resolution next year to requirp that all directors hold at least 100 shares.
