German Magnate To Part with Share of Money
BORN, Germany (A7)—German magnate Hugo Stinnes has been ordered to get rid of a large portion of his multi-million-dollar holdings before Dec. 31, 1952. Even after he does it, he still is expected to be one of western Europe's wealthiest men.
The high commission of the three western allies yesterday ordered the 54-year-old German tycoon to sell or dissolve 61 different holdings—coal mines, iron works, shipping companies and history hotels.
The action culminated six years of investigation to decide whether the Stinnes group was an excessive concentration of power. Stinnes himself submitted the finally approved plan for deconcentration of the vast holdings.
Stinnes, who still lives at his birthplace, Mulheim, in the Ruhr, was described by an Army press announcement "as one of the very worst" forces in Hitler's Germany after British security officers arrested him. He was interned for several months, but on his release was clashed as a minor Nazi offender by a German denazification court.

Swedish Ship Causes Damage In LB Harbor
LONG BEACH (A8)—A 7500 ton Swedish motorship went out of control in the harbor today, crashed into two docks, created a lot of consternation and finally was halted amid damage estimated running unofficially to $150,000.
The ship's master blamed a mechanical failure in the vessel's reversible twin propellers.
Rear Adm. Frank L. Higbee, port warden, said this is what happened:
The Los Angeles, of the Johnson Lines, here to pick up cargo enroute from San Francisco to Sweden, was just being moored at its dock when suddenly it lurched forward. Crossing the channel, it rammed into the Matson Line's pier where only a few hours before the Lurline, loaded with Hawaiian-bound vacationers, had been docked.
It knifed into the dock, cutting a pie-shaped gash 12 feet wide and collapsing the pier for 30 feet. It hit a transit shed, moving it out of line and setting off a sprinkling system which soaked some stored cargo. It cut cleanly through two railroad tracks. The impact sent it backwards and across the 1800-foot channel toward its own berth.
It hit that pier with a wrenching crash, although its alert crew had dropped two anchors in mid-channel. This dealt with the damage caused by the ship's collision.

MONTGOMERY, Ala. (P)—Police Lt. T. H. Goins said numerous women students rioted and caused considerable damage at a dormitory at the Alabama State College for Negroes early today.
College officials refused police aid after first calling for officers. Goins said. No indication of what caused the disturbance was given, he added.
Detectives answering the call said broken glass was very thick on all floors of the portion of the building they entered. A night watchman fired a pistol while police were on the scene, Goins reported.
College officials were unavailable for comment. There was no report of any injuries nor was there an estimate of property damage.

These included one on school costs and referring to limitations on night schools and adult education classes and decrying "the great number and variety of course offered... which are of no direct benefit economically to the students, or which do not provide basic education...".
Another set forth the need for revision in requirements in school construction in the light of present knowledge and economy, stopping destruction of usable buildings through inadvisable condemnation activities.

the Bacon plan because consulting engineers had said it could not be built with the available bond money. Then, at a later meeting, with newspaper publishers present, Chairman Warner revealed that the Bacon plan might be approved if the JOS purchase agreement were revised, as presented last evening.
Not all comment on District 11's course was private. Stuart McPherson, president of the Santa Ana Chamber of Commerce, remarked caustically that it had been stated District 11 opposed the Bacon plan because the bond money would not cover its cost and "now we are told" that District 11 will agree to the Bacon plan if revisions in the JOS agreement are made. McPherson said he wondered whether the inflation had suddenly been taken out of the cost estimates.
Harmony Maintained
Sanitation district directors, however, carefully retained the harmonious tone of the meeting. Robert Boney of Anaheim, chairman of the executive committee, reported that the committee had studied the proposed agreement revisions and recommended their approval by the boards. Approval was immediately voted by all districts. If the bond attorneys and JOS directors approve, the bonds can be sold at once and the long-stalled sewerage program set in motion.
Adolf Schopee, president of Anaheim Chamber of Commerce, urged early agreement on matters before the boards so the critical sewerage problems of the various communities can be met.
Revisions Requested
The revisions proposed include a clause that JOS shall not start any more construction in its system before the sanitation districts take over, that title to the system will not pass to the sanitation districts until a certain point in construction has been reached, including completion of the ocean outfall line and new treatment plant; that a time-table of operations shall be set forth and Texas Farmer Joins Marines to Extend String to 100
ABILENE, Tex. (F)—A 23-year-old west Texas stock farmer left today for boot camp to begin what he hopes will be the last stretch on 100 years in the Marine corps.
M. B. Parks already has received plenty of help. His brother and 35 first cousins got the string of years started shortly after the Pearl Harbor attack.
Parks, of Paducah, Tex., signed up in the Marines here yesterday. He will go to Dallas, and from there will be sent to the San Diego boot camp.
His brother, Leon Parks, Afton, Tex., and the 35 cousins have amassed more than 97 years of service in the corps. When he completes the two years for which he signed, the Paducah stockman plans to re-enlist or have his enlistment extended so he can make it an even 100 years.
He, his brother and his surviving cousins already have planned a reunion when he can obtain his first leave after completing boot camp.
Six of the cousins died in service—two on Okinawa, two on Tarawa, one on Saipan and one on Guam.
All of the cousins saw overseas duty and all were in the Marine Ground Forces except four who were in the Air Arm.

Margaret Truman Has Animals Shut Up as She Sings
NEW ORLEANS (UP) — Shrine circus animals were moving into Municipal auditorium today after being banned because Margaret Truman is allergic to animals.
Seals, horses, dogs, and elephants, which had been expected to spend the night in the building, were put on a nearby parking lot last night while Miss Truman gave a concert.
William Coker, auditorium manager, said he ordered the animals kept out of the building yesterday after a secret service man told him Miss Truman is allergic to animals—especially elephants.
Some of the animals had already been taken inside by their trainers, however, and had to be removed. The circus opens tomorrow.
Coker even removed his Doberman Pinscher from the auditorium where it usually stays. He said the dog is named "Harry" for President Truman.
"I certainly wasn't going to have her voice interfered with," Coker said.
