Hanng Lisler 1 o
Be Deported
m .
NEW YORK, (j*P) — Deportation
proceedings against Hanns Eisler,
motion picture song writer, were
concluded in less than half an
hour today and a government
spokesman indicated he might be
out of the country by Feb. 28.
Eisler is a brother of Gerhart
Eisler, described by a House com
mittee as America’s “No. 1 Com
munist.” ,
Hanns Eisler offered no defense
at today’s immigration service
hearing. John P. Boyd, executive
assistant to the commissioner of
immigration and naturalization,
was asked if the proceedings
would interfere with a concrt of
Eislr’s music here scheduled for
Feb. 28.
“It is quite possible he may not
be in the United States then,”
IBoyd replied.
French Designers
Show New Styles
f
(By Florence Mills)
PARIS, (/P)— Three prominent
French fashion houses yesterday
showed their interpretations of the
figure-conscious silhouette.
The silhouette was launched
last season and was enlarged upon
fey the three name firms in their
Spring showing.
j Lucien Lelong took the purist’s
viewpoint and styled his clothes
.to show the silhouette is more pal
atable if it isn’t faked with cor
setry and exaggeration.
Schiaparelli’s taste went the
Other way. Skirts were eight
inches from the floor, hips were
upholstered and stockings were of
a hue called “shocking pink. ’
Jackques Griffe did his share of
helping out the hips, but his skirt
designs were ten inches from the
ground.
Colors tended toward shades of
putty, honey, off white, grey and
yellow.

Gandhi Refused To
Have Protection
NEW DELHI, (>P)—Home min
ister Sardar V. Patel told parlia
ment today Mahandas K. Gandhi
rejected his entreaties to have per
sons attending his prayer meet
ings searched.
“My life is in the hands of God
and if I have to die, no precau
tions can save me,” Patel quoted
Gandhi as saying upon vetoing his
appeal. “I will not agree to any
one being restricted from coming
to the prayer meeting or for any
one to come between me aijy my
audience.”
Gandhi was shot to death a
week ago while walking to a
prayer meeting.
“Every caution had been taken
to save Mahatma Gandhi except
a search of those coming to pray
ers,” Patel said. “The assassin de
ceitfully and successfully exploit
ed the weak spot.”
Coast Guard Fails
To Locate SOS
I
LONG BEACH. Calif. i/P)—The
i
coast guard reported hearing a
faint, intermittent ship radio
emergency call early today.
The call was heard periodically
since about 1:30 a.m. but head
quarters said it was not strong
enough to determine what ship
and no distinguishable position
was given. Neither could the na
ture of the emergency be determ
ined.
The weak call indicated the
ship’s call letters were “YNKP”
which would indicate it was a
Nicaraguan vessel.
Tentative Nicaraguan identity
plus the faintness of the signals,
cosat guardsmen said, might indi
cate the ship was at a great dis-i
tance from here.

Off To Good Start
WASHINGTON, (^)—The gov
ernment reported signs today that
its campaign to cut spending for
scarce foods is off to a running
start.
The Agriculture department
said a review of market trends
since the first of the year show:
widespread resistance by house
wives to the high price of butt
and choice meat cuts.
Demand for meat in some areas,
the report said, has “turned slug
gish.” Consumers are showing
more interest in cow and chuck
beef, veal and lamb, less in steaks
and roasts from top grade steers.
In the dairy markets the de
mand for butter fell off more
sharply than usual after the year
end holidays, the department
found. It said high prices were a
factor.
