MUNSAN, Korea, Tuesday, Ap ril 22—(/P)—The fate of, the pro mngfed Korean armistice negotia tions appeared today to hinge on the-outcome of the secrecy shruded discussions on prisoner exchange. There has been no announce ment . on the current nature of the prisoner talks, but evidently the major issue remained un changed: Allied insistence on the principle of voluntary repatria tion. The Reds want all prisoners exchanged without regard to an individual’s wishes. Many com munist prisoners have indicated they do not want to be returned.

State Posts Spotlighted In Primary PHILADELPHIA, April 21— (IP) —Nominations for four statewide offices, as well as Congress and legislature posts, will be at stake tomorrow in Pennsylvania’s pri mary, largely overshadowed by the bidding for presidential pref erence votes and national con tention delegates. Seeking renomination to a sec ond term in the U.S. Senate, for mer Gov. Edward Martin is op posed by two" rivals in the Re publican primary in the top con test of the day. At. s t ak e are nomination for these other statewide offices: one judge of the Supreme Court, state treasurer, and auditor general. Also to be nominated, from district or county areas, are 30 members of Congress, the entire Pennsylvania delegation; 25 mem bers of the state Senate, exactb half the ■ total, and all 208 seats in the assembly of the legislature. There are 2,860,137 registered Republicans, and 1,855,487 Demo crats. A total vote of more than 1,600,000 would be surprising, al though one Republican leader said today the vote in that party’s primary might top 30 per cent of the registration if the presi dential preference campaign for Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower has “stirred up enough interest.” Martin’s opponents are James P. Scoblick, former Congressman from Lackawanna county, and Steele Clark, former commissioner of Indiana county. Republican leaders say-, they expect Martin to win easily. He claims to have the support of all 67 Republican county chairmen.- The hardest job in the world is finding one, for one, who doesn’t want one.—JOß Miss Tippy Strawn Just a few minutes’ conversation with Tippy as she combed her hair, and we knew that she was our next “OK Joe.” ' SOMETHING NEW . . .

The Lion Studio Telephone 4454 The Studio wtih the Crimson Door Senate Bans Money To Run Steel Mills WASHINGTON, April 21— (IP) —The Senate, rejecting a last minute appeal by President Truman, voted 44 to 31 today to ban the use of any money in a 960 million dollar appropriations bill to carry out Truman’s seizure of the steel industry. Except as a gesture of disapproval, the vote probably will have no practical effect. None of the money in the bill was specifically requested for or needed for the steel seizure. Nevertheless, it marked some thing of a victory for Republican critics who have been denouncing Truman as a “dictator” and “usurper” ever since the President ordered seizure of the strike threatened industry on April 8. Thirty-three Republicans and 11 Democrats voted for the fund freezing amendment, sponsored by Sen. Ferguson (R-Mich.). Only two Republicans—Morse of Ore gon and Langer of North Dakota— joined 29 Democrats opposing it. Sen. Knowland (R-Calif.) told newsmen he will move for action tomorrow on a potentially far 1 ore drastic amendment, designed lO forbid the use of any money— appropriated by Congress in the current fiscal year—to handle the seizure. Knowland’s amendment faced Belles Leffres Club Will Meet Tonight “Charms and Cures in Folk So ciety” will be the topic of a panel discussion at the Belles Lettres Club meeting at 7 tonight in the northeast lounge of Atherton Hall.
