problem made in his inaugural
address in Moscow last Sunday.
, “The Soviet government, both
under its past and present lead

much about ‘ peace.’ There are
many ways by which this can be
put to the test by deed. Disarma
ment is one of the clearest test
ing points of all.”
Challenges Red Delegate
Gross turned to Georgi N. Zar

Washington, and said to him di

“1. Is this a time when the
Soviet government is willing to
discuss constructively the subject

the attainment of conditions of
peace?

Tito Views
British Jets
Ram in Air
LONDON March 18 (JP)— A hor
rified Marshal Tito watched two
screaming British jet fighters ram
together almost overhead and
crash in flames , during an air
show today in his honor. Both
Royal Air Force pilots were killed.
The tragedy stunned Tito and
more than a score of high-ranking
British and Yugoslav officials
gathered to witness a spectacular
display of British aerial might at
the Diixford RAF Base, 50 miles
north of London.
The visiting Yugoslav Commun
ist President jumped to his feet
and his tanned face whitened as
the two low-flying silver jets col
lided near the end of the runway.
They had been flying in tight for
mation with 22 other jets and, in
changing position, one crashed in
to the tail of the other.
The momentum of the planes—
both 625-mile-an-hour G 1 os te r
Meteors—carried them about six
miles before they plunged in flam
ing wreckage a mile apart.
As two great bursts of red
flame shot hundreds of feet into
the air, Tito stood at attention
and saluted in tribute to the dead
pilots.
Six days ago three planes from
the British aircraft carrier Eagle
crashed within Tito’s view off
Gibraltar while the Yugoslav
President was sailing to Britain
aboard the Yugoslav-naval ship
Galeb. Four naval officers are
missing and presumed dead in
that accident. j

WASHINGTON, March 18 (JP) The United States to
day demanded punishment for the Russian flier who attack
ed an American plane off Soviet Kamchatka Sunday.
The note to Moscow said this country “expects” quick
word on the disciplinary measures taken and. steps by the
Reds to make sure nothing of the sort happens again.
The Air Force annpunced the
incident yesterday, reporting that
two MIGIS jet fighters intercept
ed the American 850 bomber on
a weather reconnaissance flight
25 miles off the coast of the Si
berian Peninsula.
One jet stayed overhead, the
Air Force said, but the other
swooped down in a firing pass.
The American tail gunner, fol
lowing the MIG with his sights
but holding his fire until the at
tacker opened up with his guns,
returned the fire. The jet broke
off with no apparent damage to
either craft, and the 850 sped
back to its Alaskan base.
It was the first confirmed cas.
of a two-way fight between Amei
ican and Red military planes out
side the war zone in Korea,
though there have been Commu
nist attacks on American craft
in the European area which did
not or could not shoot back. Re
turn fire orders were given in
Germany last week after jets
from Czechoslovakia had downed
an American fighter. v
The diplomatic protest to Mos
cow was a follow-up to word
from the Pentagon that the U.S.
Air Force will keep right on fly
ing wherever it wants to in the
world’s free-air space, despite the
shooting challenge over the North
Pacific. - .
Senate Passes
Boh ten as U.S.
Envoy to Reds
WASHINGTON, March 18 (IP)—
The Seriate Foreigri Relations
Committee, by a vote of 15-o,' to
day approved President Eisen
hower’s nomination of Charles
E. (Chip) Bohlen as U.S. ambas
sador to Moscow.
The vote marked at least a first
round victory for the Eisenhower
administration over some Repub
lican senators who have chal
lenged the appointment on the
ground that Bohlen helped shape
foreign policy under the old Tru
man-Acheson regime.
•Leaders in the anti-Bohlen fight
have been Senators Bridges (R
-NH) and McCarthy (R-Wis).
Bridges expressed surprise at the
unanimous committee vote and
said: “On the information I have
now, and without having an op
portunity to determine the testi
mony, I’m jtill opposed to Boh
len.”

Tax Reform
May Come
President Eisenhower said to
day Congress may “reform” taxes
but should withhold any tax cuts
until a balanced federal budget
is in sight.
At the same time, the president
I edicted there will be some “com
plaint . . . fraction . . . trouble”
now that all government wage
price controls have been scrapped.
“We must have the faith and
courage to stand by our guns all
the way through the capital'arid
in the nation.
_“So, possibly, just the plain
workings of economic law will
reestablish itself as a sound sys
tem for a country such as ours.
Certainly that is our plan and
hope.”
Addressing a group of 150 busi
ness leaders, Eisenhower said he
thought he could be fairly de
scribed as “middle of the road”
iri his thinking, and declared he
wants to avoid a one-sided econ
omy weighted either in the direc
tion of management or labor.
“Let’s not get too far to one
side or the other,” he said. Eisen
hower was greeted with a roar
of applause as he entered the
luncheon meeting of the Com
merce Department’s business ad
visory council, held in the ball
room of the Mayflower Hotel.
Newsmen were not permitted to
attend, but a transcript of the
president’s informal remarks was

On Cabinet
WASHINGTON, March 18 < JP)
—The House today overwhelm
ingly endorsed President Eisen
hower’s first government reorgan
ization proposal and voted to put
it into effect speedily.
The plan would replace the big
Federal Security Agency with a
new 'Cabinet-level Department of
Health, Education and Welfare —
raising the salaries, titles and au
thority of top officials in the pro
cess. Mrs. Oveta Culp Hobby is r
ESA administrator and is slated
for secretary.
The approval resolution headed
for the Senate, where a similar
endorsement is expected . next
week. It cleared the House by a
291-85 roll call vote after 3%
hours of stormy debate in which
some Democrats fought against
the speed-up but only a handful
rose in opposition to the reorgan
ization plan itself.
Democrats derided Republicans
for their support of the plan now
in view of GOP denunciation of
similar plans urged by former
President Truman. Republicans in
turn shouted that Democrats were
reversing their field by trying to
hamstring the plan now.
Action was on a resolution by
Chairman Hoffman (R-Mich.) to
put the plan into effect 10 days
after the resolution is passed- by
the Senate and signed by the
President.

(May Queen, Miss Penn State, etc.)
then please take heed.
Isn’t it obvious that a fine por
trait can’t be put out in 5 or 6
days, but a minimum of 2 weeks ?
We spent a lot of time and money
advertising this point in the Col
legian last Pall and it seemed to
pay off. Officials were notifying
their contestants well in advance
and we didn’t have to turn any
girls down.
If the deadline can be extended
to after Spring vacation we’ll photo
graph more contestants. If not, then
we adamantly refuse to turn out
mass production quality.
Will some contest official kindly
notify us immediately if the date
is to be extended that wc may plan
