Rita Harding said she will pur- chase a small farm near Oakland, California, which her mother al- ways wanted. After that she has no plans. Tom Ringen said he will go to Norway as soon as possible to see if he can restore personal property and other belongings lost by his mother during the German occu- pation. Miss Harding said she and Rin- gen were partners in 80 guesses and the eighty-first was the win- ner. “Only lucky break I've ever had,” she said. Ringen purchased the 80 tickets at 8 o'clock on the closing night. “I spent the evening marking them. I did the last one in time to get them deposited five min- utes before the deadline. When I got to the last ticket I was so tired I didn’'t know what I was doing, so marked it at random.” Ringen, a prospector and miner since 1932, hasn’t seen his mother in 20 years. Miss Hard- ing visited her mother at Oakland in 1941. Seldovia's Finances No Dream, Reality ANCHORAGE, Alaska, May 22.— Simon A.

At Top Speed Today finds the conference mov: | ing at top speed toward an early June finish, but with the prospect | that agreement here on machinery | to secure future peace will leave an enormous amount of work to be | done on Allied cooperation in soly- ing urgent postwar problems. Stettinius himself gave no clue as to the purpose of his Washing- ton trip, except to say it was not to discuss conference questions with the President. A dispatch from Rijssen, Holland, however, offered a possible hint on what may come up. This story disclosed that plans for joint Allied occupation of Berlin —which were agreed upon months ago by Russia, Britain and the United States—had hit a snag and “the whole situation now is un- certain.” Evidently only agreement among Mr. Truman, Premier Stalin, whose Red Army troops now occupy the blasted capital, and Prime Minister Churchill could change this plan, which previously was worked out by the highest Allied leaders. To Return, Remain This is Stettinius’ first absence from the conference since it opened April 25. He told a news conference late yesterday that he would return here promptly and remain to the end. At the same conference he an- nounced that the steering commit- tee, which he heads, had agreed on a timetable by which (A) techni- jcal committees working over the Dumbarton Oaks league plan should (B) reviewing the committees’ work next week and, (C) the whole | conference job can be wound up | soon after the nrst of June.
