Commander Crabb'* disappearance touched off one of the postwar era's biggest s py mysteries. He vanished in Portsmouth harbor while a Soviet cruiser, which look Nikita Khrushchev to England, was there. i The book, Frogman Extraordinary by Czech-born Bernard Hutton. claims Crabb now is serving as a lieutenant in the Soviet navy. But four former Royal Navy friends of the frogman said Saturday they are convinced he is dead. They said in a statement that a headless body dressed in a frogman's suit, which was found later in the area, was definitely that of Crabb. Hutton claims a Soviet sub-1 marine dumped a body near the, shore to mislead the world into thinking Crabb was dead. The, writer said Russia believed; Crabb was acting as a U.S. navy] spy when he was caught by four! Soviet frogmen near the cruiser; Ordzhonikdze. Hutton said his book is based on a secret Russian police dossier sent to satellite security for- j ces to teach them how to break; down prisoners without drugs or. violence.

TEHRAN. Iran 'AP'-A heavy earthquake rocked thc city of Shiraz in south Iran Saturday night but caused no damage or casualties. Slight damage was reported in the neighboring towns of Dashtarjan and Ardekan. _ camps, part of a small team sent by Israel for his abducation. Between the time of his capture and his appearance before a magistrate in Jaffa, there is only guess- work to go on since the government insists that the details never will be disclosed. Thc accusations against Eichmann would make him one of the most bloodthirsty, hate - filled murderers of all history. As head of the Jewish department of the Gestapo in Berlin, Eichmann in 1942 told senior officers he had mapped plans for the complete annihilation of European Jews. According to evidence given to the allies after the war. Eichmann told associates that spring his plan had to go into action quickly since "the end of the war is near." "We must hurry for this is thc last chance to free Europe of the Jews. After thc war it will not he possible to utilize such methods."

Thc first U.S. census, in 1790, showed a total of 3,929,214 persons living in the 13 original states 5,000 Homeless In Manila Flood Long, Hot Summer Of Debate By JAMES NELSON Canadian Press Staff Writer OTTAWA (CP) - lt now appears that members of the Commons will have to settle down to a long, hot summer of debate. Forecasters of a July 1 prorogation are being regarded on parliament hill as optimists. The' government served notice Terming Menderes and former president Celal Bayer "honor-1 able," Gursel said: "We remain bound by our promise to the nation to protect their security and their lives." yesterday il would ask the House | to extend its sittings by six hours j a week starting Wednesday, June | 1, in an effort to speed the workj of the session. j Reliable informants said the! government has no intention calling a summer recess or of withdrawing any legislation now on the order paper. More legislation, in fact, is to be introduced in the next few weeks. Some members, particularly! the non • lawyers, hoped that if the Commons could not complete] its work by July 1 it would start a summer recess then and re turn in September to finish the session. However, the lawyer • MPs— who form the biggest occupational group — prefer to sit through the summer and have autumn months free of parliamentary duties so they can re-] turn to their law offices for the fall court terms. One informed . guess on the prorogation date is July 22, but its originator said he wouldn't be' surprised if it were later. The current session opened Jan. 14. The 1959 session opened | Jan. IS and prorogued July 18. Legislation still to be introduced this session includes Prime Minister Diefenbaker's bill of rights, which is to be studied by a Commons committee. A rules committee has been set up, but has not yet begun its meetings,; and a scheduled committee on; broadcasting has yet to meet. Debates on the bill of rights and anti combines legislation may prove to be the major ones of the session. Opposition Leader Pearson in January singled out these two as subjects on which the Liberals would mount a| strong attack. MANILA (Monday!

It swept through squatter areas along lhe river banks on the outskirts of Manila, tearing apart clusters of makeshift shanties. The bodies of 77 victims drowned or electrocuted, have been recovered. Wallowing in the wake of trop-1 ical storm Lucille, the rain also sent floods pouring down thc suburban foothills into Quezon City, Caloocan Town, San Juan and two other emmunities. With waters.receding, government agencies and the Red Cross were able to step up relief operations. The last bad flood, 13 years' ago, washed away thousands of shacks in the war-destroyed city, but there was no official record of the death toll.
