NEEDHAM MARKET, Suffolk, England, Apr. 20 — (UP)—A pool of healthy men to help frustrated spinsters produce “beautiful babies” was proposed today by the Reverend W. G. Hargrave-Thomas, vicar of Needham Market.
This was another step in the 58-year-old vicar’s campaign to enable Britain’s “surplus women” in this man-short country' to have babies they want and, he believes— need.
Hargrave-Thomas, a former army chaplain, and missionary in Zanzibar, is married and has two adult daughters who are nurses. He launched his “babies for spinsters” campaign last Tuesday night at a meeting of the East Suffolk Education committee. He then told the committee that unmarried teachers should be permitted to have children without facing dismissal.
The vicar’s statement brought a flood of abusive letters which left him unruffled.
“They will become enlightened in time,” he said.
Some of his parishioners have left him and one of them,—Mrs. Henrietta Potter, assistant secretary of the Needham Market Women’s institute, described the vicar’s proposal as “disgusting.’' She said “we won’t have him at our meetings.”

Hawley Drafts Pasadena Talk On Disarming
Stressing that a breakdown of disarmament means the start of another war, Dr. Claude E. Hawley, associate professor of public administration. w'ill speak on “Disarmament—How anc When?” to the Area Chapter o:- uie United Nations association tonight at 7:30 in the Pasadena library auditorium.
“We now know rather clearly what must be done if disarmament is to be effected. We know also that what must be done is not simple, and that it will not be done overnight. We also know that if it isn’t done ,the final battle for world supremacy is inevitable. We know that as long as we and Russia remain mutually distrustful and prepare for war, that war will come. It has never yet failed to eventuate under these conditions.” Dr. Hawley asserted yesterday.
WORLD CONFLICT Believing that the battle lines are already forming for another conflict, Dr. Hawley continued, “Unless we prevent a breakdown of disarmament and other negotiations, the final showdown cannot be avoided. It will be either we or they. An explosion cannot be prevented, if the atmosphere that has existed since V-J Day, and before, continues.”
Dr. Hawley believes that disarmament cannot be considered apart from other world issues. It is but one phase—an important one —of the total world political picture.
IMPORTANCE STRESSED
“The importance of disarmament is so great that it ranks at the top of the UN agenda. It ranks ahead of other matters pertaining to the next war because other matters don’t count when nations are armed with atomic bombs. Revising the international rules of war will not do much good next time,” he says.
“War in this age knows no frules other than ‘kill or be killed’.”
Dr. Hawley feels that control of the atomic bomb is technologically feasible and that only political infeasibility stands as a yet unhurdled obstacle.
ATOM BOMB USE
“If we fail to agree to control or abolish the use of the atomic bomb,” Dr. Hadley explained, “it is purely academic to talk of the other two phases of disarmament in 1947; namely ,the reduction of other armaments and the creation of an international police force. Conversely, if we should come to a rational agreement on atomic energy, there (Continued on Page Four)
LEWIS SCHWELLENBACH . . .the bell rings
Beirne Flays Phone Owners
WASHINGTON. Apr. 20 — 0T.E> — President Joseph Beirne of the striking National Federation of Telephone Workers said tonight that the steel wage settlement “had pulled the last prop from under” the telephone companies* refusal to ma|e his union a pay offer.
“They have no argument left, un-leas they want to break the union,” he told reporters. "And that will be a long term project.”
Beime revised an earlier statement that weekend wage settlements in major Industries had made the telephone companies’ refusal to offer a pay boost “absurd.” He saw the steel settlement for a wage increase of slightly more than 15 cents an hour as establishing a pay pattern for similar disputes.
Beirne said he had asked L«wis Schwellenbach’s labor department to get companies and unions back into negotiations everywhere in the hope that differences could be narrowed and a quick settlement reached if the companies make an acceptable wage offer. He said the meeting between A.T.&T. and the long lines workers and the Southwestern Bell Telephone company and its union should be resumed in Washington.

Treasury, Movie Checks Target Of Current Burglary Outbreak
Government secret service and postal authorities warned all campus houses and dormitories Friday that an expanding wave of check thefts threatens SC as reports poured in of stolen and suspiciously overdue allotments.
Chief targets have been characteristic envelopes recog-
' nizable as checks from the treasury and from the movie studios.
Postal authorities have found that easily accessible pigeonhole or front-room-table mail distribution ha.« made thefts comparatively easy, said L. E. Miller, coordinator of postal inspections.
JURISDICTION ENDS
Miller warned that postal deptvr-ment jurisdiction ends once mail has been placed in a secure box. The earners are usually careful to see that important mail is left in the care of a responsible person, hs said, but here responsibility ends.
Investigation by his department has shown that campus houses are “rather careless” in handling mail, allowing it to lay on a front room table or in a pigeon-hole box unprotected.
“Government checks and other important mail should be retained by the person in charge,” he said, and given only to the person is is addressed to.”
HUGE THEFTS Arthur F. Grube, head of the Los Angeles office of the secret service, declared that theft of mail currently is reaching 75 to 125 cases a month.
Despite an extensive education campaign, small shops continue to cash government checks with little or no identification. This makes the stolen-check racket “entirely too easy.” he said.
Efforts of the secret service lo track dow’n forgeries and check-theft gangs had been quite successful, he said, but the seriousness of" the situation is reflected by “heavier and heavier sentences the courts are giving check thiefs." Conviction? are receiving the maximum sentence of 10 years per count.
EFFORTS CONTINUE “I believe something like this doe* more to stop this sort of crime than anything else,” he said. Meanwhile the department Is continuing Hs efforts.
Grube agreed with Miller m suggesting that thefts could ha*e beea largely prevented by careful handling of mail. He condemned the practice of placing mail out where it could be available to thieves entering the house during quiet periods.
A spot check of fratemitf and
sorority houses by the Daily Trojan indicated that at least three house* definitely had been robbed. Other* N declared their Suspicion that too? overdue checks might well ha*e been stolen.
LITTLE PROVISION Houses largely left distrtbutton ot mail to pigeon-hole boxes or merely placed all mail on the front room table to be picked up later. About half of the houses stated that treasury checks were withheld by house managers. Little provision was made for checks from other sources.
Sigma Phi Epsilon reported its second robbery of checks following the Thanksgiving vacation. Four government subsistence checks disappeared from the house. During the Christmas vacation 10 checks were stolen.
Kappa Alpha reported the the/t of five or six checks from a movie studio and declared that more might be missing as investigations are made of other late payments. The fraternity has lost no subsistence checks which were handled through the house manager.
SIGMA CHI Sigma Chi stated that there had been no definite evidence of stolen checks but that their suspicions had been aroused by an unusual delay in subsistence payments. Some members have yet to receive their April checks.
the educators stressed that the long-established principle of prohibiting federal control over the institutions be maintained.
