U. S. Places 84 Finnish
Companies on Blacklist

TWENTY ATTRACTIONS:

Two Firms Are Head ed
B Cabinet Members
By The Associated Press
WASHINGTON, June 3. - The
United States, seeking to force Fin-
land to break its alliance with Ger-
many, tonight blacklisted 84 Finnish
firms including two headed by mem-
bers of the Helsinki cabinet.
The action, the most drastic taken
against Finland in many months
means the Finns will suffer economic
penalties after as well as during the
War under the new policy of continu-
ing the blacklist in operation in the
post-war period. The 84 firms are
the first to be placed on the American
blacklist.
One of the firms listed bore the
name of Bruno rProcope, identified
ing official +quarters as the cousin
of the Finnish minister here, Hjal-
mar J. Procope.
The two cabinet officers in-
volved in the blacklisting operation
are the foreign minister, Henrick
Rarnsay, and the minister of de-
fense, Gen. Rudolf Waldexn.
Ramsay was named in official
quarters as chairman of the Board of
Finland-Hamburg Befraktningskon-
tor which was described here as a
shipping agency and center of Nazi
propaganda in Finland. Walden was
described as owner of a paper and
carton firm called Paperituote.
The same blacklist supplement
issued tonight also listed 53 Swedish
concerns. It was announced several
days ago that 38 Swedish firms would
be on the list. The additional 15, it
was learned, consist of eight firms
previously put on the British black-
list but not on the American list and'
seven others described here 'as among
the important business organizations
in Sweden.
Americans are forbidden to deal
with blacklist companies.
It was thus brought out that the
United States in the last few days has
reinforced its policy of playing a
strong hand with the Swedes. j
The effect of the action was viewed
here as an economic knife slashing
into the vitals of Finland's early
post-war recovery and trade pros-
pects.
Meanwhile the United States
continues to maintain diplonatic
°elattions with Finland and has its
legation in Helsinki although no
minister has been on active duty
for many months. The question of
breaking relations has come up for
consideration ion one or two occa-
sions but the decision has been
negative in the hope that by con-
tinuing to remain friendly with
F'inland the United States might
be able to pry her loose from Ger-
many.

Orchestra and Little Symphony, will
conduct the Concert Band in the
University's football March, "The
Victors" by Louis Elbel. This num-
ber, from which the familiar "Hail
to the victors valiant," comes, was
composed by, Elbei nearly 50 years
ago, following a 7-6 football victory
over Chicago. Capt. Gilbert received
his Master's degree from the School
of Music in 1941; he also studied
with Marcel Tabeteau and served on
the School of Music summer session
faculty for several seasons. He will
arrive here today from Fort Custer.
A symphonic paraphrase of Jer-
ome Kern's "Smoke Gets in Your
Eyes," from the operetta "Roberta"
will also be played. This selection
was transcribed by the well-known
composer and arranger, Erik Leidzen,
who has been a guest faculty mem-
ber of the School of Music summer
sessions.
"A Little Symphony"
A woodwind quintet, composed of
Barbara Litchfield, flute; Mary
Laughlin, clarinet; Doris Reed, oboe;
Ann Choate, French horn; Sylvia
Deutscher, bassoon, will play Carl
Eppert's "A Little Symphony." This
group, organized last fall, is rapidly
becoming one of the feature musical
attractions on campus and in the
state. Recently the quintet played
6 programs to more than 6,000 stu-
dents and musicians of the Grand
Rapids high school and junior col-
lege.
Another feature of the band, a
saxophone quartet, composed of Pa-
tricia Brown, 1st alto; Margaret
Southworth, 2nd alto; Dwight Dailey,
B-flat tenor; Anthony Desiderio, E-
flat tenor, will perform the "Quartet
No. 5" by Ramsoe-Voxman. This
composition is considered an unusual
departure from traditional literature
for the saxophone.
"Moto Perpetuo"
Paganini's famous "Moto Perpe-
tuo" (Perpetual Motion) will be
played by the first clarinets and I
woodwinds. This will be the first
band performance of the usual violinj
show piece.1
Other numbers on the band con-
cert program include Overture,1
"Obero'n," by von Weber, Gustav
Hoist's "First Suite in E-flat, Op.
28," "Elsa's Procession to the Cathe-T
dral" from Wagner's "Lohengrin,"'
"El Relicario," rythmic Spanish piece1
by Jose Padilla, a selection froms
Sousa's suite, "Three Quotations"
and "March Americans" by Marcel
Ackerman.
The public is invited to attend the
concert.

up the banner. Prime Minister W.
L. MacKenzie King maintained that
no Canadian immigration official
had the right to take such action.
But the Minister of Mines and
Resources T. A. Crerar went so far
as to deny that the incident ever
occurred. He declareA, "The lady
was not asked to leave the train:
by any Canadian government off i-
cial. . . . She was not at any time.
on Canadian territory . . . Appar-
ently no official of a Canadian;
railway had anything to do with.
the matter, any more than had
any official of the Immigration
Department."
In reply to this flat denial, The
New Republic in its issue of May 15
printed a sworn statement by Miss
Chong, declaring that she had been
forced to get off the Wolverine by
a man who "led her to believe by
his words, uniform, and conduct that
he was a Canadian Immigration of-
ficer."
The fight continued in the Cana-
dian Parliament, and The Globe and
Mail for May 15 included an article
by Kenneth Cragg who declared,
"Today's temporary order is designed
specifically to correct a condition un-
der which an Ann Arbor, Michigan
student, a girl of Chinese origin, but
an American citizen, last summer
was taken off the Michigan Central
Wolverine Express at Buffalo. Pub-
lic notice of the incident described
today by Mr. Crerar as being "most;
egrettable" was made public by The
.ew Republic." r
