White said this morning that he is of the opinion that the possible death of Russian Premier Jo- sef Stalin, who has been re- ported seriously ill, could touch off “a deadly struggle for power in Russie and its satellities.” At the same time he said that he is hopeful that this will presage advances in the struggle of oppressed Euro- pean nations for their free- dom. Father White, who has tra- velled throughout the coun- tries now behind the tron Curtain, added that he is hopeful that the church will make progress in Russia. “The Church has been per- secuted for a-long time, but people cannot be enslaved forever.” he added.

Commission- er Louis M. J. Eisner last week succeeded in having passed on first reading, an amendment to the measure which will allow “entertainers” to mingle with the patrons in the city’s bars.
