PRICE FWE CENTS

West Orders
Rail Strikers
Back to Work
Unemployment
Pay May Cease
BERLIN - (W) - The Western
Commanders last night ordered
14,000 Berlin rail strikers to go
back to work.
They said the strikers would re-
ceive WOD per cent of their wages
in West marks, their No. 1 de-
mand, and said they would be cut
off the rolls for unemployment
compensation if they did not pick
up their tools by next Tuesday.
MAYOR ERNST REUTER said
the strike "probably will be set-
tled" on the basis of the West-
ern Commanders' plan drafted
last night at a stormy meeting.'
The non-Communist strikers, who
walked out 35 days ago causing
what amounted to a second block-
ade of the city, called a meeting
for this morning.
Blaming the strike for 'para-
lyzing Berlin's economic life,
the commandants said the high
direct cost to the city in un-
,#employment relief for railway-
men was 379,000 West marks
($109,100) a week.
The city was ordered to stop
relief to strikers who do not re-
sume work by Tuesday. An excep-
tion was made, however, for men
wlo are afraid to return to em-
ploymnent with the Soviet-con-
trolled railway system. They may
keep on relief by declaring in writ-
ing the intention of looking else-
where for work.
* *, * *
THE STRIKERS have been
drawing unemployment relief and
union benefits in West Marks.
This was better than an East mark
pay envelop when they were work-
ing. The West mark is worth
about four times the East mark.
The commandants said the
strike no longer was justified be-
cause:
Soviet Maj. Gen. Pavel Kvash-
nin had assured them that
former strikers would not be
victimized; because the foreign
ministers' Paris agreement ob-
ligated the four powers to re-
store Berlin to normal; and be-
cause the strike imposed "an
unwarranted burden" on the
Western Powers to bring in sup-
plies by air.
"They (the strikers) have got
everything that they struck for,"
declared British Maj. Gen. G. K.
Bourne.
Coal Mines
ay operate
Shorter Hours
WHITE SULPHUR. SPRINGS,
W. Va.-(P)-If the nation's coal
operators will agree to a three-
day work week, John L. Lewis was
reported willing yesterday to keep
the mines open while he debates
new contract terms with them.
That would mean at least some
of the 480,000 miners who yes-
terday began their annual holi-
day would have part time work
when the 10-day vacation period
ends July 5.
# # *
THE REDUCTION to three days
a week also would fit right in
with the United Mine Workers

President's expressed wish to sta-
bilize employment in the indus-
try.
But it would be a sharp de-
parture from the traditional
"no contract, no work," policy
of the union. The present con-
tracts between the bituminous
operators and the UMW expire
June 30.
The repcrt of the Lewis offer
was heard here while negotia-
tions with more than half the
soft coal industry were in recess
until Tuesday.
Lewis himself would say noth-
ing about the report, but a well-
informed operator source who de-
clined to be quoted by name said
that "there is something to the
proposal."
Operators who left here Friday
for the week-end presumably were
back home sounding out senti-
ment on a three-day work week.

"It is my endeavor to promote and place on a scientific foundation
the bonds of the spiritual comradeship and practical alliance between

That is the philosophy of Prof. Benoy Sarkar, chairman of the
economics and commerce departments of the University of Calcutta,
India.
Prof. Sarkar, a guest of the University this summer, conducts a
course on the peoples and cultures of India, under the auspices of
the anthropology department. The course is taught in conjunction
with the geography, history,, fine arts, economics, and political science
departments.

"poisonous and lying propaganda."

Art Cinema
League Opens
Season Friday
Prize-Winning Film
Is First Production
The Art Cinema League will
open its summer season this week
with the showing of "Torment."
"Torment," a Swedish prize-
winning film starring Mai Zet-
terling, Stig Jarrel and Alf Kjellin,
was shown here previously, in May
1948 and proved so popular that
student manager Mel Bondy de-
cided to bring it back this summer.
* * *
THE MOVIE DEALS with a
young student tortured by a sad-
istic teacher and involved in an
unusual love triangle. Bondy says
that the subtitles make the action
easy to follow.
Showings will be at 7:30 and
9:30 p.m. July 1 and July 2, at
the Architecture Auditorium.
Tickets may be obtained at the
door, but Bondy warns that the
seating capacity is limited.
The Art Cinema League has as
its purpose the bringing of fine
movies to campus, according to
Bondy, especially pictures of spe-
cial interest to students who would
not otherwise ordinarily be able
to see them.
* * *
ACL, A NON-PROFIT student
organization, has in the past co-
sponsored many movies that were
brought here at the request of
specialized groups, such as the
French and Spanish clubs.
The foreign films are especially
interesting and helpful to foreign
language students, for they pre-
sent an opportunity for students
to hear the languages as they are
actually spoken.
Most of the profits are turned
over to the co-sponsor. The rest
of the money goes toward buy-
ing better equipment and to
make. possible special events.
Last semester, for instance, ACL
brought a movie critic here for
a lecture.
In the selection of films, the
general audiencealso has a say.
Bondy intends to pass out cards
later on in the season so that
suggestions can be made.
Other movies that will play here
this summer are: "Pygmalion,"
8:30 p.m., July 8 and 9 in Rack-
ham Auditoriui, and three to be
held in 'Architecture Auditorium

tion."
The committee said that not
only does the Slav Congress toe
the Communist party line but it
is "a Moscow-inspired and di-
rected federation of Communist-
dominated organizations."
The committee put out a 11
page report about the Slav Con-
gress, which it recently investi-
gated.
It wound up with 10 recommen-
dations, including a proposal that
foreign Communists be barred
from admission to this country.
It said citizenship of alien Com-
munists should be revoked and
they should be reported.
A red label is nothing new for
the Slav Congress, whose head-
quarters is in New York. Attorney
General Clark has listed it as
Communist and subversive.
THE SLAV CONGRESS state-
ment in New York was issued by
executive secretary Pirinsky.
Denying all the committee
charges, he said they stemmed
from testimony before the com-
mittee by Circuit Judge Blair F.
Gunther of Pittsburgh. Pirinsky
said Gunther quit the Congress
after it decided to support Pres-
ident Roosevelt for a fourth
term, and that Gunther is a Re-
publican who supported Thomas
E. Dewey in the 1944 election.
Gunther testified that the Con-
gress is "subversive" and that its
main aim is to "cripple our na-
tional defense apparatus." Gun-
ther helped found the organization
and was chairman of its board. He
got out, he told the committee, on
the grounds the organization had
come under Communist domina-
tion.
* * *
PIRINSKY TERMED "ridicu-
lous" the committee's accusation
that the American Slav Congress
was following the Communist
Party line. In rebuttal, he cited
the Congress' record during the
war, drives to sell defense bonds,
and encouragement of the thou-
sands of Slavic American workers
to incease their production in war
plants.
The Slav Congress was organ-
ized in Detroit in 1942. The an-
nounced purpose, the House
committee said, was to mobilize
Slav workers in basic industries
behind the war effort, after
Hitler attacked Russia.
It said the "guiding star of this
movement" is Russian Lieutenant-
General Alexander Gundorov,
chairman of the all-Slav commit-
tee with headquarters in Moscow.

Vote Pending
On Proposed
TwH Changes
Both Sides Claim
Edge inSupport
WASHINGTON - (A') - Both
sides scrambled yesterday for a,
handful of key votes in the Senate
battle over whether to keep Taft-
Hartley Law injunctions against
national emergency strikes.
And both sides claimed a slight
edge in the showdown slated for
Tuesday. The Senate has agreed
to vote then on the issue.
SENATOR TAFT (Rep., Ohio),
leader of the pro-injunction forces,
told reporters he is standing by
his prediction that "in the final
analysis, I think we will win."
His plan provides for both in-
junctions and government seiz-
ure of struck plants.
. In the other camp, Senator
Douglas (Dem., Ill.) said the ottt
come may hinge on how three Sen-
ators decide to vote. Douglas add-
ed that those opposed to injunc-
tions feel they can swing "those
crucial votes."
He was talking about the Tru-
man Administration bill to repeal
the Taft-HartleyLaw and replace
it with a slightly modified version
of the old Wagner Act. Douglas
favors some amendments to that
bill, but wants to get rid of all the
basic Taft-Hartley features.
The amendments the Senate
will vote on Tuesday give the
laymakers a definite choice be-
tween:
1. An amendment by Senator
Holland (Dem., Fla.) which pro-
vides for 60-day injunctions. That
plan is sponsored also by Hoey and
Republican Senators Schoeppel
(Kan.) and Bricker (Ohio.)
2. An amendment by Senator
Lucas (Dem., Ill.) which would
strike the injunction section out
of Taft's proposal and keep the
60-day seizure provision.
