If so, stories of sea monsters and sinister sea creatures may decline noticeably in the coming years. The giant squid is an ominous-looking sea creature, which sometimes grows to a length of fifty-five feet. The Smithsonian recalls that sailors saw the giant squid infre- quently up until the turn of the century, but since about the turn of the century, few reports have come in, telling of the sighting of the giant squid. What has caused even more speculation is the fact that few giant squid have been washed ashore in the last half-century. This, combined with the lack of reports from sailors who normally would catch a glimpse of a giant squid once in a’ while, has convinced the Smithsonian that the giant squid is probably disappearing. The squid has a thirty-foot-long, torpedo-shaped body and tentacles extending in front. There are some seven or eight major tentacles in front and two extended backward from its head. The giant squid is very secretive and illusive and seldom comes to the surface. The Smit a % » better sport for those who can stay afloat than for those who can't.

BAUMAN WASHINGTON w — A federal grand jury nas accused Owen Lat- timore of swearing falsely that he had never been a sympathizer or promoter of communism or Com- munist interests. The indictment returned late Tuesday also accused the Far Eastern specialist and occasional State Department consultant of lying under oath on six other points during his testimony before the Senate internal security sub- committee last spring. The indict- ment termed all seven points “material.” “I am, of course, Lattimore said. He is due to be arraigned Fri- day. Trial date may be fixed then. «Lattimore has been a frequent target of Sen. McCarthy (R-Wis). McCarthy said in March, 1950, that he considered Lattimore “the top Soviet espionage agent in America.” “Pure moonshine,” replied Lat- timore, 52-year-old director of the Walter Hines Page School of Inter- national Relations at Johns Hop- kins University in Baltimore. The university president, Dr. Detlev Bronk, announced that Lat- timore had been given a leave of absence, with pay, “until a Fed- eral Court shall have passed upon the charges.”” McCarthy also has called Latti- more “one of the principal archi- tects of our Far Eastern policy.” Lattimore said that wasn’t true either. , The indictment prompted. Sen. Mundt (D-SD) to call for a con- gressional investigation ‘‘to try to find out the names of the patron saints” of Lattimore and career diplomat John Carter Vincent. Vincent was suspended by the State Department Monday from his post as minister to Tangier Civil Service Commis- innocent,” services cost money. _ SLICE OF HAM _ Senators Will Ride To Work More Smoothly WASHINGTON (#—Senators are toing to be riding to and from |, heir work more smoothly next ear but that isn’t guaranteed to smooth the business of lawmaking The easier riding will be on new ‘y laid tracks for the senators’ 00-foot monorail subway line vhich connects their office build ng with the Senate wing of the | Capitol. The new rails have just been in- | sion’s Loyalty Review Board ruled jthere was “reasonable doubt” as to his loyalty. “Some committee and Vincent have bec so long and so effectively jobs in the face of all the evi- dence,’ Mundt told a reporter yes- terday. Sen. Watkins (R-Utah) comment- {ed that Lattimore’s indictment “vindicated the judgment” of the internal security subcommittee, of which he is a member. T! comfhittee, hedded by Sen. Me- Carran (D-Nev), recommended last July that the Justice Depart- ment lay before a grand jury the question of whether Lattimore had committed perjury. The seven-count indictment grew out of Lattimore’s 12 days of committee during itsjlong investi- gation of the astitife of Pacific Relations (IPR(, a_ privately-fi- nanced research organization. The subcommittee said Latti- more, long a prominent figure in IPR affairs, “‘was, from some time beginning in the 19 a conscious articulate instrument of the Soviet conspiracy.” The report called Vincent “the principal faicrum sures and influence in the State Bepartment.”” Both Lattimore and Vincent figured prominently in a Senate investigation in 1950 into McCar- thy’s Communists - in - govern- ment charges, as well as in the IPR inquiry. The indictment charges that |Lattimore, contrary to his denial {before the internal security committee, “had been a sympa- |thizer and promoter of commu- jnism and Communist interests.” The other counts of the indict- {ment alleged Lattin ted perjury when he said: That a trip he took into Com- munist China in 1937 was not by stormy testimony before the sub- | of IPR pres- | ub- | e commit: | !pre-arrangement with Communist authorities. That a meeting he had with the |then Soviet ambassador, Constan- |tine Oumansky, took place after |the German invasion of Russia in 1941. (The indictment said the | Hitler-Stalin pact was still in ef- |fect at the time of the meeting). That he was not told Dr. Ch’ao Ting Chi, described by the Senate subcommittee as a Communist jagent in the IPR, was a Commu- nist. That he had not published ar- ticles in Pacific Affairs, IPR mag- | azine of which he was editor, by }Communists other than Russian contributors. That he had not handled Lauch- |lin Currie’s White House corre- spondence while Currie, an aide to |the late President Roosevelt, was | away. That he did not know Asiaticus, a writer for Pacific, Affairs, was a Communist. Protesting his innocence, Latti- more said: ‘ “That innocence should have to |be so long defended against such vengeful harassment as I have |been subjected to for three years, |is something that can be better commented on by others than by myself. “All that I can do is, in the | words of a namesake of mine, to |‘be of good comfort and play the |m for if I should not, it would be an evil day in our country for freedom of conscierce, of re- search, and of comment. | “These are freedoms that should be guarded by all, but by univer- lsity professors with a specigl de- votion.”” Lattimore said the “be of good | comfort” quotation was from Hugh er, who was burned at the ke in 16th century England ‘on a question of conscience.” The District of Columbia Code, |under which Lattimore was in- | dicted, provides a maximum pen- alty of 2 to 10 years on each count.

I remem- €ards: Depict 4 Memories Of Her Childhood By DOROTHY ROE Associated Press Worhen’s Editor Dorothy Simmons remembers Christmas at grandmother’s house, | the jingle of sleighbells in the| snow, the garlands of pine and holly in the great Victorian hall, the spicy odors of mince pies and} fruit cake from the old-fashioned ovens, flames leaping in the old} fireplace and, best of all, the) wonderland of Christmas morn-| ing, with toys and packages piled | high around the glittering Christ- | mas tree. All of these happy memories of | the childhood wonder of Christmas | she puts into her Christmas cards, | which sell by the millions through- out the nation. And that may be the reason that Dorothy Simmons is considered one of the foremost greeting card artists in the world today. This dainty, sophisticated-look- | ing little woman, with prematurely | white hair and exquisite clothes, lives in an apartment in the heart of Manhattan, overlocking the East River and the glittering shops of | 57th Street. She was born and| raised in New York City, but the Christmas holidays of her child- hood were spent at her grand-| mother’s old-fashioned home in a tiny village in the Pocono Moun- | tains. She says: “I can close my eyes and see the sleigh and horses waiting at | the little station, feel again the excitement of the jingling ride through the snow, see the lights in the old house as we drew near and hear the laughter in my grand- mother’s voice as she welcomed her family home.” Dorothy Simmons’ most popular Christmas cards are her madon- nas, which seem to have a special radiance. She says: “I always read the Bible story of the birth of Christ before I start ber that the madonna was very young, and that she loved her baby.” The trend in Christmas cards today is toward the old-fashioned card with real Christmas senti- | ment, says Dorothy. She adds: “The era of the flippant angel | is out. Nowadays people seem to want cards that express the tradi- tional feeling of Christmas: At first | my cards used to be purely de- corative and sophisticated. Now I try to combine old-fashioned sen- | timent with a modern treatment. And my cards always say ‘Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.’ ” The best-sellers, year after year, are the madonna cards, says the artist. She started painting them then did a few for friends, soon found herself in business. STRONG ‘ARM BRAND COFFE Triumph Coffee Mill at ALL GROCERS RADIO and CIFELLI'S T.V.

Precise issues which snagged the talks b ‘ts named by Secretary of State Dean Acheson and Foreign Secretary Anthony | Eden were not disclosed. Eden and Acheson also met to discuss the situation. The breakdown came as no sur- prise for the British, who reacted coolly to American suggestions for ending the deadlock stemming from Iran's action in nationalizing t ion dollar Anglo-Iranian Oil holdings. ighly informed sources said in| Wed. the United States was ready to advance up to 100 million dollars in an effort to break the deadlock and help re store Iran’s oil to the Western! nations.
