LOS ANGELES (AP) — The federal conspiracy trial of 15 California communist leaders recessed today until Monday because of the illness of a defense attorney.
The court was informed that attorney Alexander H. Schullman was ill with the flu.
Another of defense counsel, A. L. Wirin, assured Federal Judge William C. Mathes that Schullman would be on hand Monday.

Elizabeth II
Proclaimed New Queen
(By The Associated Press)
LONDON — With a prayer and a vow, Elizabeth II was formally proclaimed Queen today and then sped through a chill winter's afternoon to the bier of her father.
In age old ceremonies the young ruler prayed that "God will help me to discharge worthily this heavy task that has been laid upon me." She promised to "always work as my father did" for the happiness of her people.
Then after the fanfare of trumpets, the medieval pageantry, the booming artillery salutes and the anthems of "God Save the Queen," she hastened to pay her first respects to her dead father, King George VI. She and her husband, the Duke of Edinburgh, drove the 130 miles to Sandringham, the royal estate where the king died in his sleep Wednesday while the Princess Elizabeth — now queen — was in East Africa. Today was the first chance she had to visit his bier since her arrival home. As her limousine turned in at Sandringham the queen had a faint

Woman Receives Hard Shock, Glad Surprise
Mrs. Huldah L. Balzar of 145 Mt. View dr., Tustin, had a hard shock yesterday, followed by a glad surprise.
The shock came when she discovered that somewhere in Santa Ana she had dropped a manila envelope containing 82540 in currency.
The glad surprise came when she rushed breathless into Santa Ana police headquarters to ask if someone had found and turned in the money.
Someone had. The envelope, all money intact, was placed in her hand.
Park Superintendent Dale Griggs had been first to notice the envelope, lying in the gutter beside the Security-First National bank, just across the street from police headquarters.
Griggs didn't pick up the envelope. He called police headquarters and Officer Roger Flagg was dispatched to bring the treasure in. The name of Otto Balzar, with no address given, was found in the envelope.
While police were tracking down his address, his distraught wife arrived and reclaimed the money.
Communists Plan To Gear Delivery To Allied Rate
MUNSAN, KOREA (U.P.)—Allied spokesmen said today the communists apparently plan to gear delivery of war prisoners to the Allied delivery rate.
The U.N. commune said there were indications that the reds "will no longer adhere to their previous offer of completing the return of U.N.C. prisoners within 30 days after the armistice."
Instead, the communists said the two-month time limit included in their prisoner exchange proposal of last Sunday applies equally to both sides.
Last Monday Rear Adm. R. E. Libby said the Allies would need 90 days because the U.N. has 116,000 prisoners. U.N. spokesmen indicated the Allies subsequently cut 30 days off their figure and asked the reds who have only 11,559 prisoners, to do the same.

Chancellor Warns People to Prepare
BONN, Germany (T)—Chancellor Konrad Adenauer warned the West German people today that a vast Russian military machine is pressed against the Elbe and can march against West Europe "within 24 hours" if the Kremlin gives the signal.
Interrupting debate on his proposal to raise 12 German divisions for the European army, Adenauer said the first shock of a Russian attack would have to be borne by American, British and French forces in West Germany but the Germans could not expect the Allied troops to do everything for them.
German soldiers, he declared, are essential to counter-balance the Soviet power.
