the morning session by concluding his rebuttal wtih this crack at Mr. Byrnes and Cadogan: “If they do not accept the Soviet-Iranian agreement, they are more Iranian than Iranians because the Iranians themselves are satisfied.” The long-awaited council debate over Iran started immediately after Soviet Ambassador Andrei A. Gromyko officially notified the 11nation council that a Soviet-Iranian agreement on removal of Russian troops from Iran had been reached. Secretary of State James F. Byrnes, who came here to conduct the American side of the debate, snapped back at once: “If there has been an agreement
from the Iranian government. We must give Iran a chance to say if an agreement has been reached.” Mr. Cadogan strongly supported Mr. Byrnes, and insisted that “complete details” of the agreement be submitted to the council. The British position is that the council must be assured beyond any doubt that the agreement was not . | extracted from tiny, backward Iran by duress - on the part of her colossal neighbor, the Soviet Union.

It was the first official notification to the security council that an agreement between Iran and Russia had been reached. But Premier Josef Stalin told President Hugh Baillie of the United Press in a cable last night that the SovietIranian dispute had been “positively settled” by an agreement. Reading slowly in the Russian language from his carefully prepared manuscript, Gromyko declared to the council of 11 memb.rs in its new colorful home in Hunter college: “The policy of my government is ”

Gromyko promised to aswer later “j11 founded” statements in Ala’s letters.

Stay Out of Pits
THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
Lewis Calls for Strike
Mr. Lewis said the miners, worn out after the war period's recordbreaking productior, would stay out of the pits until the operators accorded them “fair treatment” and signed a new contract. In announcing the contract termination, Mr. Lewis made public letters to all U. M. W. local unions advising them of the action and saying that “each member will be governed accordingly.”
Under traditional U. M. W. rules,

Mr. Lewis said the miners would “be taking a rest which they need badly.” “They are worn, weary and exhausted,” Mr. Lewis sald, “from more than five years of production for war and domestic purposes in which they excelled all production- records known in the mining industry of any country.” During those five years, Mr. Lewis said, the miners were accordetl ill treatment by the operators and sometimes by the government. Their casualties in killed and injured during the war, he said, were proportionately greater than those of the armed forces.
“The emergency is now over,” Mr. Lewis continued, adding that the miners had withheld action for many months to supply the country with coal during the winter just ended.”

There is no limit on the number of jobs which may be started within the exemption limit, but each must be separate and complete in itself. For example, a $2000 repair job on a store cannot be divided into two separate jobs to come within the $1000 exemption. The order does not cover the following: Work already begun if it is now being carried on, and materials have already been put into the building; repainting and repapering jobs; repair and maintenance work in industrial, utility, and transportation buildings; military construction or veterans administration buildings; buildings damaged by disasters such as fire and flood. It does not apply to road building, streets, sidewalks, railroad tracks, fences, silos, bridges, tunnels, subways, pipe lines, power lines, sewers, mines, wells, dams or canals.
DENIES SLAYING TWO SWEETHEARTS
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. March 26 (U. P.).—Joseph Luther Woolridge, 29-year-old handyman, will go on trial May 20 in the stone quarry mill slayings of two choir sweethearts. Woolridge pleaded not guilty to two first-degree murder charges when arraigned today in Monroe circuit court. Judge Q. Austin East set the trial date, Woolridge was accused in two grand jury indictments of bludgeoning to death Russell E. Koontz, 43, Bloomington stone quarry oompany superintendent, and garroting’ his sweetheart, Mrs. Phyllis Coleman, 33. The bodies of ‘the couple, who sang together in the Clear Creek Christian church choir, were found in a sludge pit of an abandoned mill on March 1.

The escape recalled the difficulty which was encountered in filming the scene in “The Lost Week-end” in which Milland, as drunken Don Birnam, fled from the same ward. In the picture, the situation was solved by having a patient in Milland's ward go berserk just as a doctor is entering the hospita}, still wearing a civilian overcoat. As the doctor takes off his coat to aid in subduing the patient, Milland dons it and sneaks out during the excitement. In actual practice, doctors are permitted to wear only white hos-| pital coats in the wards to avoid) just such an incident.
