Effort To Discredit Roosevelt Is Assailed CHICAGO (INS) — Democratic National Chairman Paul M. Butler assailed Americans who believe that Franklin D. Roosevelt betrayed his country’s interests in the Yalta Pact. Butler, speaking Friday before the Chicago Executives Club, answered this question from the audience: “Hew can the Democratic Party look the people in the face since the Yalta disclosures?” He said. “The papers disclosed nothing that had not been generally known for about 10 years , . . “For any American to say that Franklin D. Roosevelt deliberately sold us out at Yalta is doing violence to his American citizenship.”
CHINA TROOPS (Continued from Page One) pushing abroad, Anslinger added, have been fruitless. He said that, on the other hand, there has been no evidence that the Soviet Union permits illicit drug traffic behind the Iron Curtain. Anslinger described the dope trade from lands behind the Iron Curtain as gible." Speaking on the basis of his 25 years as U. S. commissioner, Anslinggr predicted "a terrible boomerang" stacking up for Communist China if its leaders persist in spreading cultivation of the poppy on the present gigantic scale. “History shows that you destroy your own people if the nation produces opium on a national scale. The produce!* always gets hurt in the end.” He disclosed that 34 tons of raw opium—most of it from Red China —was seized during 1954 around the globe. ' Citing the dangers from heroin, one of the most potent narcotic drugs, Anslinger said it is being produced in Europe and the Near East for shipment westward where it is highly diluted by the time it reaches the consumer, who has to pay a dear price for it. He said heroin is 40 percent “pure” by the time it reaches New York from the East. By the time it arrives in Chicago, he added, the substance has been diluted to the point where it is only five percent pure.

Bridget, and a widow, Mrs. Rachael Ellen Bridget, 30, who found the body in the basement of their Indianapolis home. Mrs. Bridget said her husband had been despondent several days. Hershey Denounces Coddling Specialists INIHANiAPOLIS (BNS) —Maj. Gen. Lewis B. Hershey, national Selective Service director, denounced "the coddling of specialists” at a meeting ot Selective Service workers in Indianapolis Friday night. He said: "No matter how specialised we get, someone is going to have to do the fighting and there is no greater honor than fighting for your own survival and maybe that of a couple of others. "There is need for a high degree of specialization but specialists also should possess a broad acceptance of the responsibility of citizenship.” LIBRARYNEWS >y the Librarian „ VENTURE INTO DARKNESS by Alica Tisdale Hobart, published by Longmans.
