Indiana Woman Is President Os U.N. First Woman Named As U.N. President „ NEW YORK UP —Mrs. Vijaya Lakshmi Pandit, first woman president of the United Nations, neatly disposed of at least one issue within minutes of taking office. She does not intend to be regarded as the prize exhibit of feminists. This tiny ripman with a soft voice and a sharp tongue let her questioners know Tuesday with unmistakable emphasis that she is tc be regarded as the president of a world organization —. not as a woman in an unusual post. “All my political training has taught me to look on myself as an individual and not as a woman.” at e said at a press conference less than, an hour after delegates elected her president of the eighth United Nations General Assembly by a vote of 37 to 22. She told delegates who elected her that she felt the honor was a recognition "of the part that wpmen have played and are playing” to achieve the aims of the U. N., but that may well be her la it reference to her sex. ' "I do not particularly care for emphasis on women as women,” she said later. "1\ would rather consider this an honor to my country Und not as an honor to women.” fThe 53-year-old Indian diplomat who has three daughters and four grandchildren, accepted the new stpp in 'her ißftrfdiblf career with poise. Her Voice, as she addressed the packed assembly, was loir and musical. Short and slightly plump, without jewelry except for a wrist watch and wearing a dove grey sari, Mrs. Pandit appeared the essence of set when a male reporter later ed her to describe her sari, told him unsmilingly, “I have never had time to consider clothes. I wear what is at hand. The color is grey/’ The new U.N. president is the

East German Police Mutiny Is Crushed Soldiers In Mutiny Against Officers BERLIN, UP — A mutiny by German police - soldiers against their Russian and German officers was crushed by Russian troops and tanks, the West Berlin “Information Bureau West” said today. The agency said the mutiny 'flared at the Pinnow barracks, near Angermuende in Mecklenburg province. One German peoples polled lieutenant was killed and “several” police soldiers wounded when 2,000 of the Soviet zone police-soldiers rebelled, the bureau said. The officers barricaded themselves in a barracks building and called for Soviet reinforcements, it said. Seven Soviet tanks and an undisclosed numbed of Russian troops were rushed to the barracks and crushed the revolt according to the agency.

Grunewald Ordered Jailed For 90 Days Jailed As Federal Parole Violator WASHINGTON UP —A federal judge ignored the hysterical pleas of Henry W. Grunewald’s wife today and ordered “The Dutchman” jailed for 90 days as a federal parole violator because of a brief interlude in a Newark, N.J., hotel with another woman; The 'Newark hotel episode was disclosed for the first time at a probation hearing before Judge Alexander Holtzoff. It had been assumed the issue was whether Grunewald violated parole in connection with another and much publicized incident, also involving a woman, which occurred in Jersey City. Both\ incidents took place last August, and chief probation officer Edward W. Garrett said it was apparent the same woman was involved in each. \ In Jersey City, Grunewald and Mrs. Anne Anderson, 46, Catonsville, Md., were charged with being disorderly persons after police found them overcome by gas’ in an apartment. The 63-year-old Grunewald and Mrs. Anderson were reported scantily clad when police found them. The disorderly person charge* were dismissed, however, and It was the Newark hotel interlude which moved Holtzoff to rule that the Washington “mystery man” had broken parole and must serve out a 90-day suspended sentence for contempt of congress. When Grunewald was sentenced last May on contempt charges stemming from refusal to tell a House Judiciary Subcommittee about his tax activities, the terms of his parole required among; other things that he lead a “clean, temperate” life. Holtzoff fined Grunewald 11,009 last May after he pleaded guilty to the contempt charge, but suspended a 90-day jail term and placed him on one year’s probation.
