Both East, West Falling Apart, Reporter Says
"Since the death of Premier Stalin a year ago, both the Communist world and the Western Alliance are falling apart at the seams." Leon Pearson, European correspondent for the National Broadcasting company, said yesterday in Topeka.
He spoke at Washburn university and was sponsored by the League Fund and the Washburn department of citizenship.
"The responsibility of saving the Western Alliance rests with the United States," he said.
"I will not be surprised if at the Geneva conference, Mr. Molotov tries to make an agreement with the other nations that Russia use its offices in Red China and Indo-China to call a halt to fighting there if all the nations represented at Geneva will agree to recognize Red China and admit her to the U.N.
"This offer will be very attractive to France and to Great Britain, who already recognize Red China, but the United States will probably be pressured at home into saying no.
The European Defense Community would never come into being, Mr. Pearson said. "It is my guess that France will never ratify it because she is too busy in Indochina to be concerned about it," he said. "Italy wants a Trieste settlement made before discussing it.
"When John Foster Dulles returned to this country after the foreign ministers' meeting he was criticized by majority leader Knowland as well as others for having agreed to a conference with Red China.
"But it is my guess that Mr. Dulles made a gentleman's agreement with Premier Bidault of France that the United States would talk with Red China if France would ratify EDC. Nevertheless, I am forecasting that EDC will never become a reality.
Mr. Pearson said he thinks Americans are exaggerating the
Haugh to Speak At State Meeting
Dr. Haugh is a member of the teacher load committee of the National Council of Teachers of English under whose auspices the study was conducted. A study similar to the one just completed in Kansas is now under way in California.
Oscar M. Haugh, associate professor of education, will open the annual state meeting of the Kansas Association of Teachers of English in Wichita tomorrow with a talk on "The Teaching Load of Kansas English Teachers."
A rainbow trout that migrates from fresh to salt water changes in coloration and becomes a steelhead when it returns to fresh water.
The talk will be a preliminary report of the findings from a study made at the University of Kansas, under Dr. Haugh's direction, in which the teaching duties of English teachers in the state were sampled and studied.

importance of recognition of Red China and he doubts Chiang Kaishek's troops will ever be able to retake the mainland. Mr. Pearson pointed out that some authorities are saying recognition of Red China by this country might help to bring about a split between that country and Moscow.
"We have injected too much emotion into the question of Red Chinese recognition and, as a result, Mr. Dulles might have to hesitate about making an agreement that could be in our favor." he said.
"Premier Stalin committed atrocities cruel enough to hold the West tightly together, but Mr. Malenkov is freeing the Misses Gilmores and permitting foreign students and reporters to visit Russia, and as a result, distracting us from our defense goals."

How nerves operate and the mechanism that is involved in such important processes as various types of narcotic action was discussed yesterday by Dr. Henry Eyring, dean of the graduate school and professor of chemistry at the University of Utah, speaking before the University chapter of Sigma Xi, national society for the encouragement of scientific research.
La Tertulia, beginning Spanish club, recently elected officers for the second semester. They are Harold Compton, president; Jim Uhlig, vice president; Colette Peterman, secretary, and Elwood Armstrong, treasurer, all college freshmen.
Spanish Club Elects Officers
Dean Eyring, a leader in the study and application of modern reaction rate theory in physical chemistry, explained that the resting potential of a nerve apparently arises from a selective pumping of positive ions, notably sodium, from the inside to the outside of the nerve. The resting potential involved in the "messages" that the nerve sends that determine physiological action, including what happens in the brain.
When some disturbance suddenly increases the nerve permeability at a point, the potential starts leaking away, he said, adding that this causes the permeability to increase at the neighboring points.
Dean Eyring explained that the dependence of the equilibrium between permeable and impermeable nerve membrane on the electrical potential and the composition of the surrounding solutions together with present knowledge on reversible and irreversible enzyme denaturation is suggestive with respect to various types of narcotic action.
McCarthy Says Murrow Was Moscow University Adviser
Washington—(U.R)—Sen. Joseph R. McCarthy (R.-Wis.) charged last night that CBS commentator Edward R. Murrow once advised students to attend Moscow university.
Those who signed up for the school, he said, traveled in Russia that summer. Although he did not accompany them, he noted that this "was not then and is not now" illegal.
A Pittsburgh Sun-Telegraph story on Feb. 18, 1935, Sen. McCarthy declared, listed Mr. Murrow as assistant director of the National Advisory council of the Institute of International Education. As such, he said, Mr. Murrow advised students to attend a Moscow university summer school which, the story said, teaches "the violent overthrow of the entire traditional social order."
Mr. Murrow sharply criticized the Wisconsin Republican's methods in a full-length television feature earlier this week.
Sen. McCarthy fired the accusations in a national radio program made available to him to reply to the recent heavy criticism he has received from Mr. Murrow.
In New York, Mr. Murrow said the institute sponsored an exchange of students between the United States and foreign countries and that the summer school cited actually was cancelled by Russian authorities before it began.
Sen. McCarthy confessed he never saw the program because "I never listen to the extreme left-wing bleeding heart elements of radio or television." But he had done some research on Mr. Murrow, he said.
Sen. McCarthy charged Mr. Murrow was being untrue when he said Sen. McCarthy once erroneously listed the American Civil Liberties
