Allies Must Police World After War, Eden Declares By the Assoctated Press. LONDON, May 8.—Foreign Secre- tary Anthony Eden declared in a speech at Edinburgh today that the United States. Britain, China and Soviet Russia must police the post- ‘war world to prevent “highway rob- | bery and gangster methods.” “Upon them,” he said, “must fall the main burden for maintenance of peace and the main responsibility for economic reconstructions of the world after the war.” Describing British operations in Madagascar as “wholly satisfactory,” he said Britain and the United States had agreed that “the territory of Madagascar remains French and will continue to be part of the FPrench Empire.” Mr. Eden said the British govern- ment was in “complete accord” with the United States in this and other aspects of the policy toward France, and that Britain agreed “with the policy of the United States to main- tain contact with the Vichy gov- ernment.” rezoning of sites along the road. Irving C. Root, superintendent of | | National Capital Parks, expressed | the opposition of that group to both | applications, which seek commercial | classification for tracts along the | | road, known as MacArthur boule- vard in the District. 1 The applicants are Mrs. Bessie Miller and Mrs. Annie Mae Del- linger. | | Mr. Root told the Montgomery County Commissioners, who con- ducted the hearing, that years ago the National Capital Park and Plan- ning Commission requested that no more commercial zoning be per- | mitted on the boulevard. The Park Service has expressed the hope that commercial establish- ments built on residential property before enactment of the county zoning ordinance, such as the two on which hearings were held yester- day, would be replaced some day by private homes, according to | Root. | | Mr. Root was the only person to appear in opposition to the Miller‘ | application, which involves property | | near Glen Echo Park, but a score of | residents from the vicinity of | Brookmont objected to the Dellinger application. Resolutions of protest against the latter application were presented by the Potomac Valley | Citizens Association and the Civic | League of Brookmont and vicinity. |~ Among winners of the Davis con- | test, which was established in 1847, | have been Bennett Champ Clark, Senator from Missouri, and Theo- dore W.

S. Employes There is no spy issue before the Jjury, Justice James W. Morris de- clared from the bench in District Court today at the trial of five de- fendants charged with illegally re- moving personnel information sheets of the Clvil Service Commission. Frank C. Waldrop, an editor of the Washington Times-Herald, testi- fled that the sheets, forming the subject of the trial, contained cer- tain confidential information re- garding employes in important defense agencies, including workers in the Panama Canal Zone and the State, War, Navy and Justice De- partments. One of the defendants, Lawrence L. Haynes, who allegedly brought a large number of the personnel sheets to the Washington Times-Herald, cross-examined Mr. Waldrop todsy. Mr. Haynes indicated that he told Mr. Waldrop he and another de- {fendant, Harlin G. Crandall. planned to go to the Federal Bureau of In- statement. Mr. Waldrop said he made certain suggestions to Mr. tails, Conversation Recalled. Mr. Waldrop testified Mr. Haynes made no reference to the F. B. I. until later in the inquiry and as- serted he did not have any confi- dential understanding with the de- fendant but had paid “in excess of $50” for the tip on the news stbry. Mr. Waldrop declared he had in- formed the defendant that he thought the matter should be brought to the attention of the au- thorities. Mr. Haynes, he Baid, was to furnish the Times-Herald with information on facts and persons concerned. Mr. Waldrop asserted he had stated to the Justice Department that Mr. Haynes had been a volun- tary actor in the situation and the |editor said that at all times Mr. Haynes was co-operative with the authorities. In response to a question from Defense Counsel James O'Shea, Mr. Waldrop said that in addition to the more than $50 given Mr. Haynes, coal was sent out to Mr. Haynes’ family and a “general welfare pro- gram” was undertaken by the mem- | bers of the staff of the Times- Herald. Dressed in an Army uniform, Corpl. Walter C. Jackson took the witness stand and testified that the idea of getting Government lists assembled came first from Mr. Haynes’ father, now deceased, who operated the Standard Business | Service, for mailing list purposes. Mr. Jackson was formerly employed by the service.

Stars of other States | would be grouped in constellations | | around the circle in the order of | their admittance to the Union. Miss Breitenbaugh said the design a part of the Army instead of a sep- arate auxiliary. His proposal provoked sharp Sen- ate debate, in which several Sena- tors argued the substitute would confer on some member of the corps rank and title higher than men in combat service. Opponents of the substitute called it too big a change recommending to the next session of the Maryland Legislature the provision of additional county police and auxiliary police in order to insure the protection of the prop- |erty of Prince Georges County's rapidly expanding population. The action of the Queens Chapel Citizens’ Association requesting the State Board of Liquor Appeals to | reconsider the local board’s approval of a Class B beer license for an | establishment at the intersection of Chillum and ueens Chapel roads near Mount Rainier also was ap- | proved by the federation, on the ground that the establishment was too near the Mount Rainier High School.

The War Production Board im- ! posed restrictions yesterday on de- liveries of seven important spices ' which will have the effect of cutting retail sales by 50 per cent. The orders, effective today and made necessary because “the avail- | ability of future supplies is un- certain,” affect white pepper, all- | spice (pimento), cinnamon (cassia), cloves, ginger, nutmeg and mace. Deliveries of black pepper are permitted at the same rate as a year ago, and W. P. B. said there was two years' supply of black pep- | per in this country. The order will stretch out present supplies of the other spices, which are the principal imported season- ings used by consumers and indus- try, to last 12 to 18 months. If un- restricted and unreplenished, such stocks would be exhausted in six to nine months, W. P. B. reported. The conservation orders on pi- mento, cassia, cloves, ginger. nut- meg, mace and white pepper pro- vide that a packer or grinder may not deliver more than 75 per cent of his average monthly deliveries in the same quarter of 1941. Whole- salers and chain retailers may ac- cept only 50 per cent of last years' deliveries. The spices covered by the order are imported from the Netherlands Indies, India, Ceylon, Africa, Mada- gascar, the West Indies and other places.
