Red 'Slavery ' Charged in UNESCO Talk GENEVA, Switzerland - (A) - British charges of a new slavery in Russia, organized on a mass production basis, yesterday touch- ed off a bitter debate in the Unit- ed Nations Economic and Social Council. Amazasp Arutiunian, Soviet delegate to the 18-nation council, immediately accused British dele- gate Corley Smith of trying to emulate the late Nazi propaganda minister, Joseph Goebbels, "by re- peating the same lies and slanders which Goebbels disseminated." THE RUSSIAN spokesman gave several reasons for the British charges, most startling of which was that the accusations were a smokescreen to cover the activities _ _ ECONOMIC CHAIRMAN: Nourse Endorses 'Brannan Plan' GOP Favors Gabrielson As Chairman Truman Wins ERP Fight, By PAUL BRENTLINGER Edwin G. Nourse, chairman of the President's Council of Eco- nomic Advisers, yesterday endors- ed several of the principles of the controversial Brannan farm plan. Nourse is here as a lecturer in the University's summer session lecture series on "Natural Re- sources in World Affairs." * * * IN A SPECIAL interview, Nourse told The Daily that "it is highly desirable that the parity formula be brought up to date, and that it be kept up to date as conditions change." The Brannan plan would U.S., British Hold Talks On .defense LONDON-(A') - Plans for de- fending the Atlantic Pact nations of Western Europe took form yes- terday at the first conference of top-level British and American commanders here since the end of the war. Following a closely guarded, four-hour conference, Admiral Louis E. Denfeld, U.S. Chief of Naval Operations, said the com- pletion of a defense setup under the North Atlantic Treaty "might be done before the end of the year.'" "I SHOULD NOT THINK it would take too long," Denfeld said, reporting "considerable progress" by the joint chiefs of staff of the two nations. Denfeld, Gen. Omar Bradley, army Chief of Staff, and Gen. Hoyt S. Vandenberg, U.S. Air Force Chief, met formally for three hours, then chatted infor- mally an hour longer with Brit- ish commanders. They were ac- companied by Maj. Gen. A. M. Gruenther, U.S. Joint Staff Sec- retary. The four Americans flew here after talks in Germany with Ital- ian and Luxembourg military chiefsand U.S. occupation com- manders. They will see Danish and Norwegian armed forces lead ers here today, then proceed to Paris for talks with the French, Belgians, Dutch and Portuguese. DETAILS of yesterday's discus- sion at the British cabinet offices in Whitehall were not disclosed. It was known, however, that they centered on two problems: 1. The type and size of land, sea and air forces necessary to keep the peace in Europe against any threat of Communist aggres- sion. Laing Cites Party Patterns In Canada Liberals Represent Compromise Spirit Any party which seeks to come to power in Canada must rise above narrow secdionalism and base its appeal upon national in- terests." That was the opinion of Prof. Lionel H. Laing, of the political science department. He spoke last night on "Sectionalism in Cana- dian Politics." CANADA'S LIBERAL party has been almost continuously in power since 1921. Last month's election resulted in a landslide victory for the Liberals and its leader Louis St. Laurent, who heads the Cana- dian government. Prof. Laing pointed out that the representation of the Liberal party does not rest upon any single province or section. "The Canadian Liberal party represents the spirit of compro- mise." Striking contrasts in the geo- graphic regions of Canada tend to create economic differences, Prof. Laing said. * * * THE RETURNS of the last eleetinn illutrat the wdenmna O.- bring about such a change in the parity formula. Parity refers to the adjust- ment of current farm prices so that they bear the same rela- tionslip to certain lion-agri- cultural prices as did farm prices to the same non-agricultural prices in a base period which was reasonably prosperous for the farmer. "Economically, the principle of having income support rather than price support is a sound one," Nourse said. The Brannan plan calls for just such income support. * * * NOURSE added that "the level at which farm income is to be supported must not be so high as to affert the government's budget adversely, nor so rigid as to pre- vent shifts from surplus produc- tion areas." The economist described the current employment picture as "encouraging." This comment was based on figures released yesterday by the census bureau, which showed that employment this month was high- er than that for any other month this year, with only a slight in- crease in unemployment. NOURSE also answered an at- tack which Sen. Harry F. Byrd (D.-Va.) made recently on the Council of Economic Advisers. Byrd had asktd if ideas expressed by the council were "American." In answer to this question, Nourse said "My family came to Massachusetts in 1642. I learned my economics at Cornell and the University of Chicago. "There are no foreign ele- ments in my economics, except in the sense that truth, is inter- national. According to Nourse, the func- tion of the Council of Economic Advisers is "not to develop par- ticular doctrines of its own, but to try to process the best of eco- nomic thinking for consideration by the President." Nourse will speak at 4:15 p.m. today in Rackham Lecture Hall on the Marshall and Truman plans, among other things. His general topic is "Quo Vadimus." ReportI1 NeW Polio Eases In Michigan LANSING-(A)COlnly 11 new cases of infantile paralysis were reported yesterday s- the lowest daily total since July 15. The additions brought the case load for the state to 426 for the1 year. * m THREE NEW DEATHS were re- ported, however, to bring the toll to 7. There were 67 polio cases' and eight deaths at this time last, year. Elsewhere-infantile paralysis totals are still mounting but there is some evidence of a slackening of the upward pace, the U.S. Public Health Service reported yesterday. The Service said new cases throughout the nation in the week ended July 30, totalled 1,963- more than 100 greater than the 1,839 reported during the worst week of the 1948 epidemic. That was the week ended Sept. 18-the peak week of the epidemic, after which the number of cases re- ported weekly began to drop. * * * SINCE THE beginning of the so-called "polio season," a total of 7,375 cases have been listed for this year, against 5,443 for the comparable 1948 period.I Committeemen Beats Down Funds Seen in Scott Job WASHINGTON -(P) - Repub- licans gathering for their "har- mony" meeting today reported yesterday it was Guy George Gab- rielson of NewaJersey against the field for election as National Com- mittee Chairman. All contended that the N'ew Jersey committeeman was in the lead to succeed retiring Rep. Hugh Scott of Pennsylvania. Whether he had enough votes was debat- able, however. WESTERN delegations were try- ing to find a candidate west of the Alleghenies who would com- mand substantial support in op- position. Members from the key 1948 Republican states of New York and Pennsylvania also were looking for a man, although pub licly they said they were not for or against anyone. All agreed that the new chair- man, who will hold office until the 1948 national convention, should have the backing of a substantial majority of the 102 member committee (there are three vacancies), not just a bare margin. Gabrielson's opponents were talkin gof committeemen Harry Darby of Kansas and Arthur E. Summerfield of Michigan, but both told reporters they were un- available because they feel they cannot leave their businesses for the full time committee job. * * * THE WESTERN opposition was discussing Axel J. Beck of South Dakota, a committee member, and A. T. (Bert) Howard, state chair- man of Nebraska. Friends of both were conducting open campaigns, but others said support for them was only scattered. The opposition to Gabrielson centered around the argument that he was for Senator Taft of Ohio for the Presidential nom- ination last year and that he comes from the east. The east is already represented by Sen. Brewster of Maine and Rep. Leonard W. Hall of New York, as chairme nof the Senate and House campaign committees. Gabrielson, when asked about this, told newsmen he was for Taft in 1948, but was not a dele- gate to the convention. He said he is "completely neutral" as to future presidential candidates, and. would not take the job if he were not. He also replied that he was born and raised in Iowa. * * * "NO ONE CAN unite the party unless he is neutral and the same goes for Republican factions in the party," he said. Gabrielson said he is available if the party wants him and added: "My friends tell me I have a ma- jority of the committee." Opponents disputed this and added Gabrielson's support was shaky in spots.

A similar amendment to so ob- ligate $450,000,000 of army funds for relief in occupied areas re- mained pending, but the Senate's decision made its chances dim. * * * THE FARM amendment went out on a point of order, upheld by e the Senate 52 to 32 when it was appealed.

McCloy, American High Commissioner for Germany, opened a round of talks with top government officials yesterday on organization of a 10-man cabinet to handle American ACL Will Show'Prof. Mainlock' The Art Cinema League has chosen "Professor Mamlock" as its last offering of the summer season. The advance sale will start in the League lobby at 2 p.m. today and continue through Saturday. Tickets may also be purchased at the Architecture Auditorium, where the film will be shown Fri- day and Saturday. Times for the showings are 7:30 and 9:30 p.m. . * * * "'PROFESSOR MAMLOCK" is the best Russian film I have seen," according to Art Moskoff, who will take over the ACL manage- ment in the fall. "It is one of the films from the Museum of Mod- ern Art." The movie was made in the middle of the Thirties and deals with Germany at the time when Hitler came to power. It shows the Russian attitude of that time. The hero is a Jewish physician who avoids politics and devotes his whole life to curing people. The professor is finally made to rea- lize that he cannot ignore the surging tide of Nazism, but it is too late for him, and he dies. THE ART Cinema League has made tentative plans for a sub- scription series in the fall. Three or four foreign movies would be shown under the system. The for- eign language clubs would aid in the selection of French, German, Russian or Spanish films. Deadline Aug. 5 For Loan Prints All student loan prints rented for the summer session must be returned to Room 508 in the Ad- ministration Building by tomor- row, August 5. A fine of five cents will be charged students for each day that a picture is held after that date. The print loan office is open from 8-12 a.m. and from 1-5 p.m. Monday through Friday. I Vice President Barkley, the Senate's presiding officer, ruled that the amendment offered by Senator McClellan (D-Ark.) was an attempt to write new legis- lation into an appropriation bill, forbidden by Senate rules. Senator Lucas of Illinois, raised the point of order. Senator M- Kellar (D-Tenn.) appealed from Barkley's ruling. THE DECISION, taken late in the day, removed the biggest threat to final approval of the measure, now confidently antici- pated by its backers. A similar but somewhat more involved parlia- mentary dispute last weekad sent the $5,647,724,000 mrie&Yik back to the appropriations com- mittee. The bill contains $3,628,380,- 000 for Marshall Plan spending in the current fiscal year by the Economic Cooperation Admin- istration (ECA), as well as $1,- 074,000,000 EAC money for the last quarter of the 1949 fiscal year, $900,000,00 for the army's government and relief expenses in occupied areas, and smaller sums to furnish economic aid to Greece and Turkey. In a lengthy speech, McClellan insisted on consideration of his crop amendment. If adopted, none of the money set up for the pur- chase of surplus crops would have been used for any other purpose. McCLELLAN called his proposal a taxpayers' amendment. "It relieves them of paying out dollars for farm surpluses and the paying out extra dol- lars for Europe to buythose same products elsewhere," he said. The administration fought the proposal with everything it had. ECA administrator Paul Hoffman contended. its adoption would tie his hands and threaten the suc- cess of the entire recovery pro- gram. GOP Seeks Changes in Arms Plan WASHINGTON-(P)- Republi- cans predicted yesterday that pow- er for the President to arm any nation will be stripped from the Administration's $1,450,000,000 foreign arms bill before it gets out of the House Foreign Affairs Committee. The Committee spent today be-' hind closed doors, questioning Gen. Lyman Lemnitzer of the Army, Dr. Lloyd V. Berkner of the State Department, and a battery of assistants. When it quit for the day, two Republican members told report- ers that broad presidential pow- ers to decide what nations shall get arms and how much they will the House for action. Republican members said also that a full r1 nf tstimnv bye x policies in Germany. BATAVIA, Java-The Dutch and Indonesian Republicans formally ended their four years war yesterday, but both sides made clear it was an armed truce for the present. Republican President Soe- karno, in a fiery broadcast last night from his capital at Jog- jakarta, ordered his guerrilla armies to observe a cease-fire proclaimed yesterday, but to hold their positions. PRAGUE, Czechoslovakia - The Communist-led Czech gov- ernment announced yesterday sentencing of a Roman Catholic priest on charges of treason for allegedly refusing to administer the last sacrament to a sick old woman because she held a Com- munist membership card. The Rev. Alois Fajstl was sentenced by a state court to eight years imprisonment, the official Prague radio said. The priest denied the charge. INDEPENDENT TO BITTER ND: Mammologist Calls Chipmunks Isolationists' By JOHN NEUFELD "To each his own" is the by- word even in the chipmunk world. The average male chipmunk's domain is a strict 3.8 acres, and the female has to do with 2.36 acres. But they're more or less neighborly, because one won t friendly fashion with their re- latives, the ground squirrels, for instance. These observations were made by Harold E. Broadbooks, a former Horace H. Rackham special fel- low who is now finishing work on a doctor's degree at the University. He did his work on a 40-acre open range of yellow pine forest, in the Cascade Mountains of Washington, so that he could study the animals in their na- tural habitat. * * * DEER HUNTERS were often them like old friends.
