A new challenge to. treaties developed today when the opposi-1 tion Socialists announced they are filing a suit in the Constitutional Court against the Saar pact. They charge it violates the constitution. The Socialists said they have recruited sufficient parliamentary support for the suit.

They need the signatures of at least one-third, or 163, of the Bundestag members. If accepted by the court, the suit could jeopardize the entire Paris treaty package. The Saar pact is tied to the rearmament treaties. And the French have been insistent on approval of the whole bundie, or nothing. The 38-member Bundesrat took just 68 minutes to pass the treaties.

There was no debate. After the vote, Chancellor Konrad Adenauer proudly declared: "This away with Yalta." His government said in a statemention significance of the Paris treaties postwar policy is particularly' emphasized by the publication of the Yalta agreement. The ratification of these treaties signifies the obliteration' of Yalta."

The said books by- Prime Minister Churchill, and Former U. S. Secretaries James Byrnes and Edward R. Stettinius had made known all the essential facts on the Yalta meeting of President Roosevelt, Prime Minister Stalin and Churchill.

Churchill, the only survivor among the Yalta principals, told the House of Commons in London yesterday Britain disapproved of the American publication, He said there were "serious mistakes" in the U. S. account. But American Dulles said it is his the action, amounting to a fourth publication, will not do any harm than the preceding three. 'A reporter commented that the State Department is still holding up documents on events before Dulles said this is true, but that American policy, in view of the tremendous volume of such papers, is concentrating on episodes which have particular historical interest.

He asserted that each nation must feel free to publish diplomatic relations in the interest of public knowledge and historical accuracy. He suggested that by simultaneous action of other countries the full picture could be, better learned. He said he knew of no intend tion by the United States to denounce the Yalta treaty. Dulles touched on various other subjects. His comment: Far Eastern Policy He would not be pinned down on whether the United States will fight for the islands of Quemoy and Matsu.

This is a decision which will be made at the proper time by President Eisenhower. The United States recthe right of the Communists to claim Formosa, but not to take the' Nationalist stronghold by force. As to recognition of Red China, the United States withholds such action because the Peiping regime refuses to abide by accepted standards of international relations.

After Capehart's harassment accusation, Fulbright advised the Indiana senator to confine his "attacks on the chairman" "to executive sessions of the committee. Capehart is the ranking Republican member and headed the Committee in the last. Congress.

With his spectacles resting far down on his nose, Fulbright looked over the big crowd of spectators and said icily: "These people aren't. interested in what you think of the chairman." After the hearing Fulbright- told reporters: injection of politics has taken most of the enthusiasm out of the hearings, The administration has made up its mind not to do anything but criticize." While Capehart took sharp ception to Fulbright's questions, Curtice didn't. "I hope;" Fulbright saia, "that you don't think I am harassing you." "Not at all," Curtice replied, "I 1 am enjoying it very And Curtice, -whose intimates still call him "Red" although his hair and close-cropped mustache are white now, actually seemed to have a good time. He smiled often and had ready vigorous answers most of the questions put to him. When he didn't he called on one of three high-ranking GM officals who flanked him.

Curtice testified that GM, which makes about 50 per cent of the cars produced in this country, pays: no attention to stock market fluctuations in its planning. "Our forward business planning has always been based upon our evaluation of economic conditions in general and the automobile industry in particular," he said. "Stock market operations, as such, have no effect on our forward planning." Curtice told Fulbright, "Don't worry about any monopoly in the industry as far as we are concerned." Fulbright obviously has been worrying about that, since he has speculated several times as to whether GM, through "old-fashioned competition," particularly price reductions, could wipe out its competitors.

By Emile Genest In the fashionable area around Mayflower Hill Drive and First Rangeway, no one walks, alone by night these days. Normally quiet in the daytime, that neighborhood is quieter still at night. The men there won't drive home after dusk without first warning their wives by phone that they are on their way. No one is about when the street lights are burning except students in small groups walking back up the drive to the college on the hill. Why? The answer is "the prowler." exaggerated? Like the beginning of a familiar mystery program? Perhaps.

But talk to any person who lives in that area. Knock on any door there in the evening or walk beneath- a window, and presently the approaching siren of the police car may be heard, Those people are jumpy. For nearly a month now their principal topic of discussion has been the prowler. And well it might be. For in this neighborhood of substantial residents at least four housebreaks have been reported since February 19, and during that same time, many more inprowling.

enough by themselves. these incidents are especially frightening because they are apparently the work of pervert. Neither money nor vale uables interest him. Only women's underclothes. That's why those people west of the Messalonskee are especially concerned.

Some of thein also find it somewhat irritating that. their apprehension is not shared city-wide. In other quarters of the city some persons have doubted the existence of the prowler. "No one has ever seen the dubious say, "and it seems impossible he could enter several homes witnout leaving more clues. Some of those breaks were only imagined." The facts, however, indicate otherwise, As early as last December there were breaks on the south end of First Rangeway, near the Oakland Road.

On January 1 there was one reported from Mayflower Hill -Drive. Then late in February they came closer together. According to the police record, the first break that. month was. on February 19, a Saturday.

At 11.24 p. Albert Roderick, 1 160 First Rangeway, asked police to investigate a break in' his. home. Roderick said he and his wife were out to a dinner party that their evening. home.

There On was their no -return one Ron derick noticed that a garage door was open. He was puzzled because it had been frozen shut for weeks. Then he and his wife noticed that their back door was smashed and al the lights were on in their house. Entering, they saw footprints of snow on the floor. Roderick rushed upstairs.

There too all the lights were on. Closet doors and bureau drawers. were open. All of the men's clothes were still neatly arranged. The women's clothing was strewn everywhere.

In three places the burglar ignored money that had come before his eyes. That was clearly not what he had searched for so frantically. He had apparently departed haste. The Rodericks found women's underclothing that had come from another home. On a sofa they found a sackful clothing.

Roderick called police. Within a few minutes a nieghbor Mrs. Fernand Fortin told the Rodericks. that her house had been entered too. She and Dr.

Fortin had been out to dinner with the Rodericks and other friends and, returning to their home about three houses down 'the street from the Rodericks, they had found the same condi-Itions. That same night another resident on nearby Averill Terrace reported to police that a prowler was on his porch but ran away when the householder snapped the porch. light on. Tension in the neighborhood increased during the rest of that week and several other instances of prowling were reported to po, lice, as well as reports of anonymous telephone calls and ringing of doorbells. Similar reports also came from Franklin Street, in the southwest area of the city.

No more cases of prowling were. reported then, according to police, until last week. On March 10 Lemuel Leighton reported to police at 8 p. m. that his house had been while he his wife entered, that evening.

The bureau drawers were ransacked, Leighton said. The burglar's interest at the Leighton home was the same. Two women's underslips were found laid out on a bed. For three more days prowler activity was nil again. Then last Monday the phantasmic prowler struck in daylight.

Between 9:30 and 10 a.m. that day he entered the home of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Nawfel, Mayflower Hill Drive. "His modus operandi was the same as before," said Nawfel, an attorney and Waterville City Clerk for several years.

Nawfel is amazed at the prowler's uncanny stealth and knowing -approach. "It was the first time my wife left the house in three weeks," he said. "In. all the houses around us there was nobody home, He couldn't have picked a better time. You can bet he's a pretty smart cookie." Nawfel related the story of the break at his home to a reporter.

"That day my wife said she wanted the car. She drove me downtown -about 9:15 that morning, then did some shopping. She hadn't locked the side door because she figured she would be gone only a short time. "She got back home about 10:30 or 10:45. When she first went Into the kitchen she didn't notice, anything wrong, although she recalled later.

that she heard the back door slam as she entered but thought. It was only the wind. "Then upstant in the bedroom she found the closet door wide open and the light on. Two pair of panties were on the floor, one of ripped to shreds. The bureau drawers were Nawfel said his wife told him of the housebreak when he came home at about 5 that afternoon.

guy must have been watching when we left. If we had only looked back we might have seen who it was," he said later. Word of the break into the Nawfel home spread rapidly. That evening they received phone call after phone call. Everyone wanted to know the details.

Asked for a statement Wedof Police John D. MacIntyre said: "This type of criminal presents very tough problem. He's hard to get anything on. We don't know of anyone who has actually seen him or can give us a of him. "We are running down every possible We're questioning everybody we suspect might have tendencies toward this type of crime.

I can assure you the police are doing everything to get to the bottom of it." JOSEPH D. THERIAULT Joseph D. Theriault, young Winslow businessman, is announcing this week the opening of real estate office in Wins- low. Proprietor' of Hilltop Cleaners for the past nine years, Ther-1 fault will continue that phase of business will also include facilities for real estate transactions at his present plant, 38 Clinton Avenue. He plans to handle real estate not only in Winslow, but throughout the area as well.

A Winslow native, Therlault, is charter member of the recently-organized Winslow Community Club. He is active in the Waterville Lions Club, the Elks Club, McCrillis Rousseau Post, VFW, and the Knights of Columbus. He served in the U. Navy for three and one-half years during World War Two. For many years "Red" Therfault was Waterville as employe of Jimmy's Shu-Fix, Main Street.

He and Mrs. Theriault and their four children reside at 49 Ronald Gaulin Buys Gustafson's 21-year-old Waterville man made the decision Friday to go into business for himself and bought the stock and fixtures of Gustafson's Market on Kelsey Street. Ronald Gaulin of 31 Ticonte Street, said he will continue the business at the same place, under the same name and with substantially the same policies. The former owner of the store, Maynard Gustafson, had announced Monday of this week that the store was being closed and that all its stock and equipment was for sale. For Gaulin the decision meant giving up a Hollingsworth and Whitney Division job he has held four years, but it also meant the realization of a longtime ambition at a relatively early age; he has always wanted to be a grocer.

Gaulin admits, however, that despite his ambition, the business will be new to him. He has no experience, he says, other than "the retail selling training got in Waterville High School." He expects that training will now be very useful to him. Gustafson has agreed to remain with him three months to help ac-7 quaint him with the business. Gaulin, who was graduated from Waterville High School in 1951, is. married to the former Joan Quirion of Waterville and the couple have two children.

March 18 UP--A Strafford County Superior Court jury today awarded $9,250 to Stephen Sleeper Rochester for the amputation of a finger chewed by a carnival hyena in.

1952. The verdict was assessed 1 against World of Mirth Shows, owners of the animal. Spokesman for the firm said the company would appeal. Sleeper said he was feeding peanuts to the hyena when the animal pulled his hand into the cage and chewed his finger. Later, the finger was amputated.

Health officials said this had little significance from statistical standpoint, because the number of Maine children reciving the vaccine was comparatively small. Reports from all test areas went to Dr.

Thomas Francis of the University of Michigan, who. heads the staff of scientists evaluating the results of the field trial. The results, thus far, secret, are due to be announced in a few weeks. Taking a chance that results would be favorable, the National Foundation ordered a stockpile of the vaccine sufficient. to give nine million children three injections each.

This was done to prevent delay in making the vaccine available and allow. manufacturers to retain staffs and facilities for producing it. Dr. Fisher said planning will be done on the local level as far as possible. Organizational units may be individual cities or towns, groups of communities or school unions.

Each unit must arrange for personnel, supplies, equipment, schedules and payment for 'services, he said. Educational material will have to be local planning completed, consent slips returned and rosters of children made out before the middle. of April, Dr. Fisher said. If the vaccine report is favorable and comes before April 15.

as expected, first shots should be given during the third or fourth week of April, he said. Second shots would then be given the first week in May and final shots the first week in June, completing the immunizations before schools close for the summer. Who will get the vaccine? Subject to parental consent, all first and second grade children will receive it and those third and fourth graders. year's test areas who as controls but did not receive vaccine. These are the age groups believed most suceptible to polio and its frequently crippling Dr.

Fisher said vaccine will be available for other children normal commercial and professional channels, if the evaluation group gives its OK. Obituaries And Funerals FUNERAL OF MRS.
