MacArthur To
Be Heard Behind Closed Doors
REPUBLICANS INDIGNANT
Washington, Apr. 30.
Democratic Senators rode down Republican protests today, and decreed a closed door hearing for General Douglas MacArthur.
Republicans immediately raised a cry of "ter- rible injustice."
Gen. MacArthur will testify on Thursday about his dismissal as Far Eastern Commander and the host of foreign policy questions his ouster raised.

When the aircraft-carrier, HMS Theseus, which left Hongkong yesterday, arrives Home at the end of the month, the ship's company will be presented with the coveted Boyd Trophy, awarded the 17th Carrier Air Group for carrying out 1,400 accident-free landings during operations in the Korean war theatre.
Between October 8 last year when operations storted and April 19 of this year, the Theseus marle a tolal of ten trips to sea, and put in 86 dying days.
As a result, each of Theseus's 38 pilots can call himself a "Veteran of 60," for during that time 3,440 sorties were Itown-an average of 60 to 70 sorties per pilot,
