Pro- gressive leaders of the party tried —and tried hard—during closed- door debates on the GOP platform. But they lost out to the.right- wingers. The most significant platform battles were over exactly the same issues fought out in the recent Congress—public housing, tidelands oil and public power. The final platform—the principles the GOP will follow for four years of elected —was a victory for the reactionar- ies. Stormiest secret deabte was over tidelands oil. Gordon Richmond of Orange, Cal., managed to insert the plank in the original sub- committee draft giving the control of submerged oil lands to the States —just the opposite of the ruling by the U. S.

BLOCKADE OF BERLIN ‘KEEPS UP British me Charges Against Russians in Present Siege (By The Associated Press) Britain officially accused Russia today of attempting ruthlessly to create a state of siege in Berlin, as the Soviet land blockade of that city continued. The British commander in Ger- many, Gen. Sir Brian Robertson, de- manded that the Russians lift their land blockade of traffic to Beflin. Otherwise, he said, the Russiuns must take the blame for German suffering. With the Western Powers in con- sultation over their next step, the British Foreign office said the Soviet {campaign, “By starving the helpless civilian population” of Berlin, seeks to gain political advantage ‘at the expense of the west. The statement added: “We intend to stay in Berlin.” This tacked up an earlier state- ment by Gen. Lucius D. Clay, U. S. Military Governor, that no action short of war could drive the Amer- icans from Berlin. The Berlin blockade coincides with the Western Powers' currency re- form, and efforts by Russia and the Western Powers to put their |own brands of currency in circula- tion here. These developments were re- {ported from other troubled areas of | _Announcemeni-Labor | e “worla: CAIRO—The Israel Government (told its general staff to take suitable action in pushing a convoy to President Philip | Negeb desert settlements.

N. Mediator. ROME—More than 250,000 Italians were called from their jobs in a nation-wide Communist-directed food workers' strike. General strikes in Pisa and Modena also crippled Italy's production. ATHENS—The Greek Govern- ment pounded guerrilla forces with air 4nd artillery attacks in the all- out offensive in Northwestern Greece. SHANGHAI—Chinese Communists, pushing - southward from Manchu- ria, were reported attacking Chin- wangtao, Northern Chinese port, and the railway linking it to Tientsin and Peiping.

Blanton at the direction of Ma- honey. The laboratory reported that their investigation had brought negative results in tests for pois- oning.
