Supersonic telegraphic messages intercepted by several submarines among the fleet of 25 vessels participating, in the search led to the discovery of the submarine early this morning. THE ADMIRALTY said the A the sea at a depth of 33 fathoms (1 of Wight in the English Channel. W age Body P'lan Halted By Industry WASHINGTON - (R) -- Econo- mic Stabilizer Eric Johnston said' last night that a proposed dis- pute-settling wage stabilization board cannot be established le- gally over industry's objections, By vote of 12 to 4, the Advisory Board recommended that Presi- dent Truman immediately set up an 18-man board to dispose of the scores of wage disputes which hav been piling up since the first board was scuttled Feb. 16, The four industry representa- tives objected. THE MAJORITY recommended thatthe Board have broad power to settle labor disputes recom- mended to it by the President.

Rescue crews ordered to con- verge on the area said the site was shallow enough to permit divers to descend to the sunken sub. THE RESCUE crews said the use of supersonic telegraphy in- dicated the Affray's control room was not flooded. Ships and planes of four na- tions took part in the search for the Affray after the admiralty announced yesterday that the sub had failed to report its whereabouts. American, French and Belgian naval vessels joined with British ships crisscrossing the English Channel throughout last night. The Affray, a submarine of 1,200 tons, normally would carry a crew of 60, but its crew was augmented for the training cruise by sailors and marines from a submarine training school. The British submarine Sea Devil reported the first word from the Affray early in the morning. But the Sea Devil said the supersonic telegraph messages were too faint to be understood. Other submar- ines in the area then reported they, too, had intercepted the message. The Affray was en route from Portsmouth to Falmouth, 180 miles . to the southwest, and had been ordered to travel underwater all the way except between 8 and 9 a.m. each day, when she was to send a radio message. Welke Given Jail Sentence DETROIT-Former University student William F. Welke was sen- tenced to five to 15 years yester- day for extorting $3,500 from the mother of a fellow student. A Detroit jury convicted Welke of threatening Mrs. Katherinel Vasu, wife of a prominent phy- sician, in telephone conversations on May 31, 1949. The jury found that he had told' her that her son, Cordell Vasu, '52, would "never see her again" unless she paid the money. Mrs. Vasu testified thatshe met Welke in Detroit and gave him $3,500. Recorder's Judge John Maher granted a motion by Welke's at- torney for a 20-day stay pending a retrial hearing. He placed Welke under $5,000 bond during the 20- day period.' Bradley Hits MacArthur's ChinaPolicy 'Nation Must Aim For World Peace' CHICAGO-(P)-General Omar N. Bradley spoke out yesterday against General MacArthur's sug- gestions that the Korean war be extended to China. Bradley' was the first of Mac- Arthur's fellow five-star military men to raise his voice publicly against the proposals since Mac- Arthur was ousted from his far east posts last week by President Truman. GEN. BRADLEY, Chairman of* the joint Chiefs of Staff, did not mention MacArthur's name. But he said, "There is little immediate danger of this country being over- run-but our way of life, our free- dom and our nation have the best chances for survival by keeping peace in the world. "This is the over-riding con- sideration of our national for- eign and military policies. Any recommended course of action which would enlarge the present war is contrary to our best in- terests, and by jeopardizing world peace, ultimately would threaten our security." Bradley spoke at the conven- tion of the National Association of Radio and Television Broadcasters. The section of his address opposing expansion of the Korean fighting was in direct conflict with Mac- Arthur'sdviewsconfthat subject. MacARTHUR'S POLICIES had been set forth in a series of state- ments and in a letter to Rep. Mar- tin (R-Mass.), House Republican leader. MacArthur had recom- mended that the solution to the Korean situation is to use Chinese Nationalist forces on Formosa to carry the war to the Chinese main- land and to bomb Manchurian bases. Gen. Bradley supported Presi- dent Truman's stand against MacArthur's ideas and defended the Administration's policy of limiting the war in Korea. "There is no early end in sight to the Korean war under present conditions," Bradley said. "As far as we can see now there is nothing transitory about the Communists' determination to drive us out of Korea and, if possible, to destroy our forces completely. We may strive for peace and a cessation of hostilities, but while so doing we must continue to fight." Student Draft Law Backed DETROIT-(P)-David D. Henry, president of Wayne University, defended deferment of college stu- dents last night but said the pro- gram had two serious weaknesses. President Henry, in an address prepared for delivery before the American Association for Health, Physical Education and Recrea- tion, said that under the program "college students are not avoiding military service, but preparing for it" The president said that the de- ferment order should be amended to provide for (1) federal scholar- ships and (2) a plan for the uti- lization of people of special ability after college training.

Asian-Arabs To Discuss Peace UNITED NATIONS, NY.-(P)- The Asian-Arab group in the United Nations will meet today to consider a North Korean peace feeler and "otherhdevelopments" in the Korean situation. Plans for the meeting were dis- closed last night by India's Sir Benegal N. Rau as some Eastern European quarters described the message from the North Koreans as a serious bid for peace talks. At the same time unconfirmed reports circulated in diplomatic circles that Rau had received a new communication from the Chinese Communists. Rau denied this. Soviet Delegate Semyon K. Tsarapkin said he knew nothing of the North Korean peace feeler. And Western spokesmen reported it looked like just another Com- munist propaganda stunt. The North Koreans sent their long message Monday to the Presi- dent of the Assembly and the President of the Security Council. min ton lked To 1.ad_..RFC SHINGTON - (R) - Presi- ruman last night named W.

China Issue Unleas ;Furious Partisan D 6 WASHINGTON - (P) - Angry debate rang out in the Senate last night over the Truman-Mac- Arthur issue, with Democrats and Republicans hurling the label "war party" at each other in a running argument that brought tempers to the boiling point. Sen. Kerr (D-Okla.) touched off Law School Receives Gift The University Law School will receive a $1,300,000 scholarship aid fund from a late Cleveland lawyer and University alumnus, State Representative Arnell D. Engstrom announced yesterday in Lansing. The gift, nearly double the amount thought to have been be- queathed last December, will come from the estate of Freder.ck L. Leckie, a 1904 graduate of the Law School. The fund was origin- ally set at $700,000, until an in- ventory was taken of the complete estate. Leckie, who died Nov. 29, pro- vided that the money be used "for the education of needy students as may be selected by the dean, of the Law School." Rep. Engstrom disclosed the grant in connection with the pas- sage of a tax reciprocity bill by the House. The bill if it becomes law, would establish a reciprocity agreement among Michigan, Ohio and Illinois, retroactive to May 1, 1950, and would also provide that those states would be exempt from Mich- igan taxation if a Michigan resi- dent should bequeath funds at his death to educational or charitable institutions there. the uproar by char Taft (R-Ohio) an( GOP colleagues are otage the bipartisa icy and in doing sc strated that the Re is the war party."
