War Department
Clears Srnedley
Of Spy Charg es
WASHINGTON, (£>)—'The army
criticized for its recent report on a
wartime Soviet spy ring in Japan,
has admitted handling the matter
badly.
I In several respects, Col. George
| S. Eyster said Saturday, the form
I in which the report was issued
was contrary to the army’s usual
public relations policy. Eyster is
deputy chief of the army public
information division.
For one thing, he said, the di
vision, lacking proof, should never
have let the report aocuse Miss
Agnes Srnedley, an American au
thor, of being a Soviet spy. Miss
Srnedley has called the charge a
“despicable lie” and an “attempt
ed assassination of my character.”
“It is definitely not the policy
of the army department,” Eyster
told a reporter, “to pin any charge
on anybody unless it has, actually
on hand, the definite proof.”
In New York, Miss Srnedley
said through her attorney, former
U. S. assistant attorney general O.
John Rogge, that she was grateful
to the war department for clear
ing her name and reputation. But
she added she has suffered irre
vocable anguish as well as mone
tary loss and damage.

!
No-Man’s Land
BERLIN. (4*)—Russia set up a
no-man’s land through the center
rtf Berlin today after several bor
der shooting incidents, including
at least two fatalities.
‘‘Danger zones” were established
around various control points and
all pedestrians and loiterers ban
ned.
These control points—already
strengthened by roadblocks of iron
stanchions and paving stones—are
the places where the communists
stop and inspect traffic crossing
from their sector to western-oc
cupied Berlin.
Divided Berlin, the vortex of
the east-west cold war, also is in
the grip of a currency scare. Signs
increased that the Russians intend
a new money switch here and in
their surrounding occupation zone.
The Russians denied this, but
Germans living in the east sector
reported restrictions had been
placed on buying to prevent a
dumping of marks.
Jack Elliot, resident for many
years at Dime Creek passed away
recently at his home in Ephrata,
Wash., leaving a widow, formerly
| a teacher at Dime Creek, and three
sons, all of whom are attending
(Washington State College and
have the distinction of all being
; Eagle Scouts.
| Falling Wall Kills
Several Hundred
LISBON, Portugal, (/P) — The
fall of a huge wall was reported
| today to have killed or injured
several hundred persons lined up
for a food handout in Praia, capi
tal of the Cape Verde Islands.
Portuguese colonial offici a 1 s
said they had been informed of the
disaster by the governor of the
islands,* a Portuguese colony off
the northwest African coast.
There was no official count of
the dead. Dispatches from Praia
said 315 persons, many of them
dead, had been dragged from the
ruins.
Eyewitness dispatches said a
long file of beggars formed out
side the poorhouse shortly before
noon yesterday to receive meals
supplied by the government since
the area was hit by a famine.
Soup was distributed to the beg
gars sitting under a tiled strip of
roof. Hundreds were buried be
neath the 25-foot roof wall when
It crumbled along a distance of
about 33 yeards.
WHITBY, Yorkshire, England,
(/P)—Richard Day, aged 12, tossed
a bottle containing a note into the
| sea here last October.
Now* he has a note from Finn
Nielson, aged 16, who found the
bottle in the sea near his home
1 at Hjorring, Denmark.
