Dfixiecratis 'See Victory In Filibuster WASHINGTON --(P)-Southern Democrats tonight claimed a whopping majority to beat down an expected Administration- backed attempt to choke off their five-day-old filibuster in the Sen- ate. Senator Russell (De., Ga.) told a reporter that a private poll taken by the Southerners indi- cates they have 58 votes. ALL THEY NEED is 49 votes, a simple majority, to override an expected ruling by Vice-President Barkley in favor of ending the debate quickly. "We have enough votes to de- feat the effort to break the fili- buster against this proposed rules change," Russell said at a late hour. An Associated Press survey showed the Southern bloc gaining support, but less heavily than Rus- sell claimed. The score Thursday was 38 to 17. Yesterday it stood: 42 to 18. World News Round-Up By The Associated Press LONDON - The Moscow radio said tonight Russia wants peace and "unswervingly conducts a policy of cooperation among all democratic countries, regardless of their internal social system." The broadcast, which was in English, was heard here. The Soviet radio monitor said it came just before the announcement of the change of Russia's foreign minister. WASHINGTON - Ign o ring angry Republican cries of "high handed" action, the Democratic majority today rammed the Truman labor bill through the Senate Labor Committee with- out changing a word. The vote was 8 to 5 on party lines. WASHINGTON - The House Banking Committee today ap- proved a compromise bill to con- tinue rent controls another 15 months and give the government power to prevent any mass evic- tion of tenants.

Pnitmnfnr nr o_ OSU Ahead By 10 Points In Tank Meet Weinberg Oily iMiehio in. Winner By MERLE LE'VIN (Special to The Daily) LAFAYETTE, Inca. - Showing tremendous strength in the divi ng department and picking up inexpected points in two other events, Ohio State swept into a ,ommanding lead in its bid to re- tain the Western Conference swim rown here last night. The Buckeyes swept the first our places in the low board dive .o pile uip 15 points in this event done and gain a 41-31 lead over Vlichigan's defending champions. IOWA WAS A close third with 25 points while Purdue and North- western picked uip 18 and ten points respectively to round out the scoring. Michigan's Dick Weinberg sent the Wolverines off to a flying start as he dumped de- fending champion Keith Carter of Purdue in the 50 yard free style. Weinberg, who in the after- noon's semi-final heats had tied the Western Conference record in the dash with a 23.1 timing, grabbed the lead from Carter in the last 25 yards to come home in a comparatively slow 23.4 sec- onds. BUT THE WOLVERINE lead was sliced badly as Bob DeGroot and Ralph Knight took an ex- pected one-two in the backstroke while favored Duane Draves of Iowa could do no better than third. Bernie Kahn was Michigan's only qualifier for this event but he faded in the last 25 yards and finished sixth. Two new records were set as the Buckeyes piled up their ten point margin but the Ohioans had no part in either record. Appro- priately enough however it was an Ohioan who turned in the finest See MANN, Page 5 VYACHESLAV M. MOLOTOV ... loses post House Told To Cut Talk On Spy Bill WASHINGTON - OP) - The House Rules Committee was urg- ed yesterday to hold talk down to a minimum when the House takes up a mysterious American spy bill which one member said involves somewhat "dirty business." Among other things, the mea- sure permits the highly secret Central Intelligence Agency to of- fer sanctuary in this country to foreigners who may risk death to aid our agents. Up to 100 a year would be allowed to enter each year without regard to immigra- tion laws. THE CIA ALSO could train its agents in public or private insti- tutions here or abroad, and ar- range for their training by various associations, business firm, or the armed services. Members of the Armed Ser- vices Committee went before the House Rules Committee to seek clearance for the bill under y procedure calling for only min- imum discussion. Majority leader McCormack (D- Mass.) later told the House that it may be called up Monday under rules suspension preventing amendments and limiting debate to 40 minutes. Vishinsky Named As Successor in Ministerial Job Foreign Trade Minister Mikoyan Also enoved in Russian Shake-up LONDON--(/P)-Vyacheslav M. Molotov, the man who many thought might replace Josef Stalin as ruler of Russia's millions, last night was released from his post as Foreign Minister and replaced by the fiery Soviet lawyer, Andrei Y. Vishinsky, the Moscow radio said. A brief announcement, released by the Soviet monitor in London, said only that Molotov has been released "from the duties of Minister of Foreign Affairs." VISHINSKY recently returned to Moscow after treatment for what was described as a serious illness. He had been treated in Czecho- Alovakia. Molotov, foreign minister of the Soviet Union since 1939, was known the world -over as the number two man to Stalin in the Russian hierarchy. For- eign observers who worked in Russiaseemed agreed that he eventually would rise to the forefront as top man in the U.S.S.R. Vishinsky, the man who has taken his place, gained interna- tional renown as one of the most vitriolic orators ever to take part in United Nations debates. He first won fame as a prosecutor in the pre-war Soviet purge trials. S * 4 THE TEXT of the Russian broadcast as transcribed by the Soviet monitor said. "The Presidium of the Su- preme Soviet has released the Deputy Chairman of the Coun- cil of Foreign Ministers of the U.S.S.R., Comrade V. M. Molo- tov, from the duties of Minister of Foreign Affairs of the U.S.S.R. and has appointed A. Y. Vishinsky Foreign Minister of the U.S.S.R. "The Presidium of the Supreme Soviet has released the Deputy Chairman of the Council of the Minister of the U.S.S.R., A. I. Mi- koyan, from the post of Minister of Foreign Trade and has appoint- ed M. A. Menshikov in his place." THE SUDDEN announcement of the major shake-up in Russia's high command struck foreign dip- lomatic circles like a bolt. In some quarters, such as the UN in the United States itself, delegates were astounded by the news. In the noisy corridors of Lake Success foreign representatives huddled and wondered what it meant. Diplomatic circles in London, stunned by the news, speculated as to whether the promotion of Vishinsky might have some con- nection with the current move by Western nations to formulate a North Atlantic defense pact. And while they were speculating on this, they also were trying to figure out the significance of the switch which found Menshikov, formerly Vice-Minister of Foreign Trade, taking over the post of his boss, Mikoyan. A BIG QUESTION was what will happen to Molotov now. No one knew, from the terse Moscow radio announcement, whether he had been given another job. All that was known was that no men- tion was made of Molotov's sec- ond post, that of Deputy Premier. Some quarters believed it possi- ble that releasing him from his Foreign Ministry duties might be tantamount to his appointment by the 14-man Politburo to an even greater responsibility. ., Reds Seek Gallows for' Churchmen SOFIA, Bulgaria -(P) -Com- munist prosecutors demanded to- day that four Bulgarian Protest- ant ministers be hanged as trait- ors and that heavy prison sen- tences be imposed upon 11 others. The trial of the 15 on chargeq of treason and spying for the Unit- ed States and Britain neared its final stage in Sofia's district court. The prosecution declared the min- isters were servants of "Anglo- American imperialism and the Western church mission boards." WESTERN capitalism and American chtrch missions also were attacked in defense summa- tions. The defense lawyers, ask- ing mercy for the group, said the ministers were "the poor, unfor- tunate victims" of Western Edu- cation and that the lure of West- ern gold had made them the tools of American Anti-Communist propaganda and espionage. Bulgaria's supreme prosecutor, Moscow-trained Dimiter Geor- giev, called for the death of the four defendants who were mem- bers of the council of the United Evangelical Churches of Bul- garia : The Rev. Vassil Ziapkov, 48, Congregationalist. The Rev. Yanko Ivanov, 48, Methodist. The Rev. Nikola - Naumov, 49, Baptist. TheRev. Georgi Chernev, 46, Pentecost. Council Okays Israel Bid for UN Entrance LAKE SUCCESS-(/P)-The Se- curity Council yesterday approved Israel's bid for United Nations membership. The application now goes to the General Assembly where a favor- able vote is taken for granted. Is- rael thus is expected to become the 59th member of the UN soon after the Assembly meets April 5. * * * THE SECURITY Council vote was 9 to 1, with Britain abstain- ing. Egypt cast the lone negative vote. Egyptian delegate Mahmoud Bey Fawzi fought the Israeli ap- plication to the last. At the end, however, he announced that Egypt was ready to wash her hands of the whole affair.
