Marshall Asks
Europe To Help In
Reconstruction
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. ^—Sec
retary of State Marshall called
upon the countries of Europe yes
terday to work out together a
great new program of reconstruc
tion.
He promised American econo
mic assistance and support “so
far as it may be practical.”
And at the same time he pledg
ed the United States to oppose
“any government which maneu
vers to block the recovery of other
countries.”
Without naming any foreign
country or party, Marshall de
clared in the outline of an address
' prepared for a meeting of the Har
vard alumni association:
“Governments, political parties
or groups which seek to perpetu
ate human misery in order to
profit therefrom politically or
otherwise will encounter the op
position of the United States."
Marshall did not specify how
much money the American gov
ernment intends to make avail
able but said Europe must have
“substantial additional help” dur
ing the next three to four years or
“face economic, social and politi
cal deterioration of a very grave
character.”
The cabinet officer’s call for a
joint effort by European countries
to develop a reconstruction blue
print represented the first step of
the new State Department ap
proach to the problem of world
wide rehabilitation.
The secretary declared “our pol
icy is directed not against any
country or doctrine but against
hunger, poverty, desperation and
chaos.”

Mail Many Bomb
Letters In London
LONDON, (/P) — Scotland Yard
reported today that nine new let
ter bombs for Britons had been
found in the mails, making a t<v
tal of 20 discovered since early
this week.
Reliable sources said that all
20 of the “murder by mail” letters
had been posted in Turin, It^Jy.
Dispatches from Jerusalem, mean
while, said the so-called Stern
gang, Palestine Jewish under
ground group, had announced that
its European branch has been
sending the bombs.
Scotland Yard said some of the
new bombs were addressed to for
mer cabinet ministers, but refused
to name any of them or to say
whether Churchill was among
them.
Foreign secretary Ernest Bievin
and his predecessor, Anthony
Eden, were among those to whom
I he earlier dynamite-laden envel
opes were mailed. None of the
bombs has been exploded, except
in police tests which have shown
them powerful enough to maim
or kill a man.
PISCATORIAL PAYMENT

“Someone must have taken the

said. “B»t for $100, he must have
done a lot of fishing.”
Jackson Day
Dinner Big Flop
• - ■ —
LOS ANGELES, (/P)—A Jack
son t)ay dinner gave California
Democrats a touch of political in
digestion today.
The discomfort occurred after
two principal speakers represent
ing the national administration
failed to appear at last night’s $25
to $100-a-plate banquet.
Secretary of the treasury John
SnyJer telegraphed regK^ts, plead
ing a suddenly called cabinet
meeting as the reason he couldn’t
be here. Then Gael Sullivan, ex
ecutive director of the Democratic
party, withdrew after arriving
here, citing a hurry call back to
Washington for conferences with
President Truman.
Los Angeles political writers
openly viewed the situation as a
political slap at Jam^s Roosevelt,
eldest son of the late President
and chairman of the California
State Central committee, and as
indication of a rift between con
0
servative Democrats and supp rt
ers of Henry A. Wallace.
The principal speaker last
night, Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt, the
late President’s widow, talked on
a note of world unity and peace.
