i; PANAMA CITY, Oct. 10.—President Ricardo Adolfo De La Guardia predicted today that his new Government soon would repeal the ban on arming foreign-owned ships of

: The ban was announced Monday by the Cabinet in the

last meeting before Presjdent Arnulfo Arias departe from Panama by airplane and e new regime| took over in & coup d’etat. . |! “The Cabinet voted to cancel the nian registry of any foreignolvned mercharitman that may be afmed, and said it was a step taken preserve Panama's neutrality. ~+President De La Guardia told the United Press that his Government will be motivated by “strictest

ol ‘Panama's ‘new, pro-democratic government said today that absoIyte order prevailed after the coup d'etat, and it ‘was reliably reported that the ousted President had asked

He added that he was no “friend of the Axis,” and had “no difficulties” with the United States. The new Government worked late fast night, and the general opinion was that the people were behind it. Officials pointed out tha} the upheaval was not comparable to a revolution; but rather to “resolving the impossible situation qf a Government without a head.” ‘Octavio Fabrega, new Minister of Foreign Relations, formally notified BE officers in the country of the change. ‘President De La Guar ia, -exereising ‘his powers as ‘Justice, ordered the arrest of various Government ' officials | and the "entire staff of the pro-Arias Government newspaper La | Tribuna,

1U. S. Relations With

Republic Unchanged .

WASHINGTON, Oct. 10 (U. PJ). —The United States automatically continued recognition of the Government of Panama because yesterday’s sudden changes there were effected in accordance with that republic's constitution, President Roosevelt said today. Mr. Roosevelt said he had consulted ‘the State Department last night and learned that the coup d’etat apparently was brought about within the framework of the Panama constitution. Hence, he said, no question of recognition is involved and U, S. relations with Panama remain unchanged. Neither Mr. Roosevelt nor Secretary of State Cordell Hull commented on the general belief in diplomatic ranks that the change in Panama's Government would mark a much-improved era in United States relations with’ the republic and make the U. S. defense of the Panama Canal easier. Some sources »| predicted a speeding up of defense preparations there. American and Latin American diplomats here made no effort to » | conceal their satisfaction with the removal of the alleged pro-Axis President Arnulfo Arias and the establishment of what is considered a pro-democratic Government.

U. S. Plotted Coup

Berlin Press Says

BERLIN, Oct. 10 (U. P.).—Newspapers charged today that the United States had plotted the coup d'etat that overthrew the Panama Government of President Arnulfo Arias. Authorized sources also sought to connect the overthrow of the Arias Government with the United States military preparations. ‘

MOST POWERFUL ‘GLASS’ IS BUILT

Microscope Will Magnify 150,000 Times; Help Fight on Disease.

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Cal, Oct. 10 (U, P.).—Construction of the world’s greatest electron microscope has been started in the laboratories of the physical science department here. : It will have a magnifying power of 150,000 times, which will exceed by 50,000 times the greatest ong built to date. The instrument will be built under the direction of Dr. Ladislaus Marton, newly appointed associate on the Stanford faculty, and one of the world’s outstanding experts on electron microscopes. The work will be carried on under a $65,000 grant from the Rockefeller Foundation. The microscope under construction, Dr. Marton said, will be merely a “service one” to carry out a vast number of scientific research problems. :

To Build Dream Scope

Eventually, Dr. Marton will build one that will be the scientists’ dream of what a microscope should be and that one will’ haye a magnifying capacity of 1,000 times. He declared this is perfectly feasible. Dr. Marton began his development of electron microscopes eight years ago while working at the University of Brussels. He built one of the first electron microscopes in the world, and was the first man to turn such an apparatus ‘on living matter. The subject ‘was bactefia taken from the roots of a rare orchid which it was slowly killing. His fame brought him to the United States inr 1938, ‘and he joined the staff of the Radio Corporation of America, collaborating in the construction of the first electron microscope to be built in this coun-

: May Show Polio Virus

Earlier this year, he acted as visiting professor on the subject at the University of Michigan and then was signed by Stanford. There are more than two dozen scientific research projects to. be undertaken here as soon as the microscope is completed. Among these are bacteria which need further investigation; various plant and animal tissues of which the secrets are not yet all known; chomosomes and heredity ‘controlling genes, and super-small filterable viruses that so far have escaped adequate attention. It is hoped especially to trap the filterable virus of infantile paralysis with the big microscope. Dr. Marton believes, as a matter of- fact, that he already has done this while at the University of Michigan, and hopes with the bigger microscope to establish this beyond doubt.

By MARSHALL M’NEIL Times Special Writer WASHINGTON, Oct. 10.—Charging that a monopoly in truck transportation in 19 states is threatened, the Justice Department through its anti-trust division has asked. the Interstate Commerce Commission to deny an application for a merger of eight truck lines. The appeal, in the form of a brief filed with the I. C. C., condemns the alleged participation in the proposed merger.of Kuhn, Loeb & Co, New York banking house. The brief describes the proceeding before the I. C. C. as one in which “Associated Transport, Inc., a newly formed corporation, seeks authority to acquire control (through exchange of its capital stock) ‘of eight common carriers . . . operating over 37,884 highway miles in 19 states.” It asserts that “this transaction would bring into being the largest common carrier of property by motor vehicle in the U.S.” The eight companies, according to the brief, are: Arrow Carrier Corp. Barnwell Brothers, Inc., Consolidated Motor Lines, Inc., Horton Motor Lines, Inc., McCarthy Freight | System, Inc., M. Moran Transportation Lines, Inc., Southeastern Motor Lines, Inc. and Transportation, Inc. Their operating revenues in 1940 are said to have been $18,494,200.

Affects Seaboard

Among other things, the Justice Department brief charges that— “The proposed merger is primarily a consolidation of the most powa erful competing motor carriers in the Atlantic Seaboard area rather than end-to-end unification; “Extending from northern New York and New England to Florida and Louisiana, the merged companies would have a route coverage and drawing power sufficient to secure for the merged lines an unshakable hold on the long-haul traffic in the territory concerned; and “The combined volume of pile ness of the merged lines will give them a tremendous bargaining power with connecting motor carriers for interline business which will enable them to secure not only the major portion of this traffic but to demand as exchange the premium or higher rated traffic.”

Oppose Bankers’ Role Turning to the financing of the proposed merger, the brief says that “the direct financial interest of

investment banking houses in applicant, one of which, Kuhn, Loeb

engaged in railroad financing and promotions, will tend toward a restoration .of monopoly in transportation and will otherwise be contradictory and hostile to the public interest.” “Has not the time come in the long and spotted financial history of : transportation,” the brief asks, “when the Government should insist that investment bankers should have no stock interest in or ticipation in the management of any transportation agency, and that the sale of any securities of such

House Expected to Reject ‘Amendment Barring Aid to Russia.

“WASHINGTON, Oct. 10 (U, P.).—~ Administration leaders expected the

House to reject all major amendments to the new $5,985,000,000 lendlease appropriation and send it to the Senate today. Principal assaults will come from non-interventionists seeking to bar its. use for Soviet aid and from Republicans who believe the full amount of the appropriation has not been justified. The anti-Soviet aid amendment was to be offered by one of two Republican membhers of the appropriations Committee, Rep. Robert F. Rich (R. Pa.) or Rep. Robert F. Jones (R. O.. Republican and Democratic leaders doubted that ug the proposal would get 50. votes. By a standing vote of 133 to the! House defeated an amendment by Rep. Francis Case, (R. 8.
