Communist Spy Net Sensation
Paris, June 8.
Information revealing France's Southern naval base port of Toulon as the centre of a Communist spy net, organised to steal defence secrets. was examined by government lawyers today following widespread police raids on Red cells.
New seizures went on through the weekend to build the govern- ment's treason case against the Communist Party, although the police withheld details beyond admitting they were generally in the Toulon area. The Ministry of the Interior said it was "premature" to disclose the contents of documents taken in yesterday's raids, but numerous local reports said the papers included plans of the Toulon naval arsenal, blueprints of elec trical installations marked for destruction, and a photostat of the top secret naval dossier whose original rests in the French Admiralty safe.

Referring to the severe curfew he imposed on Tan-Paris' biggest sports stadium for jong Malim village curly this spring and his cutting off the villagers of rice ration because they sheltered guerillas, Gen. Templer told the United Press in an interview, "I am satisfied that the results achieved were worth-while. You ask whether I would repeat such operation. That is an hypothetical question. But as I am responsible for the conduct of operations in this country and while I remain in that position I shall certainly take such action as I may deem necessary. It is absurd to think that drastic action is taken light-heartedly in cases such as this. There is a deep consideration of many factors involved."

New York, June 8. The Governor of Pennsylvania, Mr John Fine, who is chairman of his State's powerful 70-vote Republican convention delegation, today discussed "practical politics" with General Dwight Eisen- hower for three hours, but declined to say whether the general had his support.
Mr Fine, who is said to control at least 25 delegates whose presidential preferences are un- known, said he had a pleasant chat with Eisen- hower at the General's home at Columbia University.
