‘Talking Dog Asked Me for A Candy Bar'
By ROBERT MUSEL United Press Staff Correspondent ROYSTON, England, Aug. 13.—A 6-year-old black and white terrier just asked me for a chocolate bar. He spoke English distinctly. This isn't just a shaggy dog story. This loquacious animal's name is Ben. Ben is a dog, but he talks like a man.
He can't say his own name, but that doesn’t make any difference because everyone in this quaint village on the old Roman road to London knows Benf's name. n » " NEITHER does Ben go around introducing himself to strangers. He gets right to the point and says what he has to say. Maybe he doesn’t want to be bothered with a lot of boresome people expecting him to remember them by name. When he spoke to me there wasn't a ventriloquist within miles. Folks here take Ben and his conversation in their stride— just like the people in the shaggy dog Jokes. “Of course he talks,” they say. “He's been talking like that for a long time.” 5 » ”
BUT THEN these people are Eng-| lish and they haven't been excited |
about anything since = Caesar’s| legions poured through here 2000 years ago.
Lured by intriguing reports from | Hertfordshire, I visited the modest home of one Alfred Brissenden. It's|
about a few hundred yards off Roy-|
ston’s main street. As I entered the house, a friendly
black and white terrier about a!
fort high, but sleek and broad, sniffed at my legs. “I hear you have a dog talks,” T said to the family. 5 = n MA BRISSENDEN, son Dennis and Mr.
that
hee Brissenden
himself ushered me into the little
parlor, sat me down and said: “That's him—Ben. He talks.”
The terrier pattered in when he]
heard his name and looked me over. At Mr. Brissenden’s instructions I took two bars of chocolate from my pocket and began to munch one. Ben, noticing that T had something edible, stationed himself before my chair and said: “I want one.’ ” I'm a teetotaler so you can take my word for this. Ben, a 6-year- -old| terrier, said to me in plain English “I want one.”
x y » I WAS so surprised that I didn't) most fast enough for Ben, so he repeated clearly and distinctly: “I want one!” I gave him the chocolate. Noj wonder he's sleek and broad. Who can refuse a spoken demand from

HAIFA, Aug. 13 (U., P.).—British forces, fighting with smoke bombs against hysterical Jewish | refugees armed with bottles, cans| and sticks, today herded hundreds,
of Jewish refugees into barbwire | pens on transport ships for ship- | ment to detention camps on Cyprus. Casualties were numerous. One woman was killed and 10 men se-| verely wounded as crowds from | the Jewish suburb of Hadar Ha-| carmel, answering the summons of | the underground radio, Voice of] Israel, tried to force their way {into the port area to save the Jewish refugees from deportation. Thousands of Jews, ordered confined to their homes under the strictest curfew, answered the rallying call of the clandestine radio

which instructed them to “get out of your houses and into the streets.”

As they attempted to approach | the port, they met a strong British | military cordon, The British or-| dered the Jews to turn back’ | | When the crowd refused, the troops opened fire, killing one woman and wounding 10 men. The British military immediately declared the port region “a closed area.” No one was allowed either] to enter or leave. Eight regiments of British troops guarded the zone.
