S. Will Have escue to ritain fin By JOSEPH ALSOP WASHINGTON, March 15 President Truman has at last boldly faced the world crisis. With his message to the Congress on Greece, he has in- I Newton Woman, 66, augurated a new American foreign policy more active, more positive and longer in range than anything previously attempted. The message is only a first step. The President has indicated this, and his judgment has been boldly confirmed by Senator Van-denberg, whose in the historic decision just taken has been of inestimable importance.

MarsKall Says Plan Strikes at Heart Attacked in Home I I of German Problem a Bidault Declares His Nation Will Welcome Former Enemy Bound and Gagged hy 2 Armed Men, Rolled of $22, Watch; Two Arrested NEWTON, March 15 A 66-year-old woman was bound and gagged in her home en Center st, tonight by two armed men who took $22 and her wrist watch. One of the men-was arrested by police a few minutes later and the money and watch were found on his person. 1 The kind of thing that must now be looked for is at least suggested by an inconspicuous episode in the preparations for the Moscow Conference. Before such meetings in the past, it was always the strict rule to avoid any consultation with other powers, and especially with Britain. The idea was to give the Soviets no ground for suspecting us of "ganging up." But before Secretary of State Marshall went to Moscow, this rule of the past was tossed into the discard.

Marshall stopped en route in France for a sort of state visit, intended primarily to assure the French of American support and strengthen anti-Commu-nist forces there. Still more im- portant, however was the unannounced trip of Marshall's adviser, H. Freeman Matthews, to London. Matthews flew over some days before Marshall left, carrying in his brief case the whole American plan for the. Conference.

He went after a hint had been received from Foreign Secretary Bevin that an opportunity would be welcomed to coordinate the American plan with the British. And the decision to send Matthews was taken with the thought in mind that some elements in the British government were leaning toward a new deal with Moscow as one way out of Britain's dilemma. Matthews' trip was preventive. See ALSOP Page 25 Mrs. No U.

He will be ready to appear next week' before Senate and; House committees, now prepar- ing to rush the President's gram thrqugh, a high State Department official disclosed.

See GREECE Page 24 Evacuation Day 'Loyalties' Police surrounded a Park-sq. bus terminal last night, causing excitement among the crowds, as news was flashed here that an escaped inmate of the Portsmouth, N. Naval Disciplinary Barracks was due here on a bus about 8.

No trace of the wanted man, Charles Brewer of Florence, was found when police questioned the bus driver and passengers. Brewer, serving a six-year term, was one of four inmates who escaped this morning. Three were recaptured about two hours after their escape in a swampy area near Went-with Acres in Portsmouth, after Marines pursuing them fired five shots in the air. Captured were John Lead-better, 19, of Jamaica, N. Kenneth Frazier of Charleston, W.

Bradford 3 More Bribe Cases MOSCOW, March 15 (AP) France proposed tonight a startling modern-day exodus of Germans from their defeated Fatherland in order to lower the German war potential, and Secretary Marshall said the plan struck at the heart of the German problem. Foreign Minister Georges Bidault told the Foreign Ministers Council that the Allies should undertake an organized reduction of. the population through emigration from a thickly-settled Reich and said France was prepared to take the revolutionary step of absorbing Germans into her own population.

He said France considered the German population, which is much denser than her neighboring states, a war potential that could be linked with the German industrial potential. Bidaul explained that with the return of expellees from former parts of the Reich, Germany would have a density of population of 196 per square kilometer to 75 per square kilometer for France and 62 for Poland. He said this would be 40 more per square kilometer than when Adolf Hitler raised his cry for "living space." This overpopulation, he contended, was laying the seeds of -a new war and giving- the Germans the strength to conduct it. The Frenchman's other points were: 1. No new transfer of German minorities from other countries into Germany would be permitted.

He is touted in informed circles as a second Charley Michel-son, who made shambles of the crumbling Hoover administration. It is known, too, that he has supplemented several of the conservative advisers in the President's" entourage. He enjoys the full confidence, as well as personal admiration, of Mr. Truman.

He flashed into public atten tion meteorically in the days he was ghost-writing for Mayor Kelly before the war. Though "just a kid," then in his 30's, he turned out the stuff that cluttered up a lot of space in the local newspapers.

One of these attempted "shakedowns" involved a demand for more than $3000, highest yet reported in the current probe of alleged extortions by City Councilors and other officials. This sum was reportSdly paid by a man seeking a permit to build a bottling plant. Construction was ordered halted by a building inspector, "on orders from above," until the bribe was paid.

Lodge Lauds Truman Plan to Halt Soviet Aggression Winter-Weary Greet Preview of Mercury Hits 57 Although Winter doesn't officially end until Spring started busting out all over yesterday with balmy breezes and a friendly sun, which 'pushed the mercury to a welcomed high of 57 degrees. In keeping with the signs of things to come, Bostonians took to the great outdoors in droves, leaving their cares and heavy overcoats behind them. According to the Weatherman yesterday's high of 57 was 13 degrees above normal. But Old Sol broke no record, since last year's temperature soared well above this.

See YORK Page 30 first five meetings of the Council of Foreign Ministers have been devoted to a critique of the Potsdam agreement. The Ministers are engaged, not in devising peace terms for Germany, but in a severely critical examination of each other's policies in the zones of occupation. This is inevitable, since the subject before the Council is the report of the Allied Control Council on progress made in establishing the principles of Potsdam. The net effect is to bring into the open reports and rumors which have disturbed cooperation among the Allies for the last year and a half.

Charges which have been made repeat er levels of government officialdom, are now showing up at the Council of Foreign Ministers, where they may! be openly thrashed out. Russian suspicions about the administration of the western zones as they have Leen expressed by Molotov concerning alleged se of German military formations in the British zone, the maintenance of military units of Yugoslavs, Poles, and Germans, camouflaged as "displaced persons" in the American zone, and failure to demilitarize war plants in both zones bring into the open charges which have been bandied back and forth for months. See HOLT Page 25 Lauding President Truman orchis "courageous attempt to halt Communist aggression," Senator Henry Cabot Lodge Jr. told the Clover Club last night, that Congress must decide what methods should be used in the attempt. "If we repudiate the President, the last hope of ever organizing peace would vanish," he said.
