Unions Postpone Railroad
Strike Planned for Monday
NEW YORK-(A')--Bowing reluctantly to the federal govern-
ment's wishes, three big unions yesterday postponed their Monday
strike against New York Central Railroad lines east of Buffalo.
They notified Washington that the strike was off "for a reason-
able period"-without hinting how long that might be.

Bulgarians
Send Strong
UN Protest
Condemn Greek
Shelling of Island
By The Associated Press
Bulgaria sent a vigorous protest
to the United Nations yesterday
against what it called aggressive
action by the Greek Army on Bul-
garian territory.
The protest followed Thursday's
Greek shelling of Gamma Island
in the Evros River which separ-
ates Bulgaria and Greece. The
Green general staff announced the
disputed island had been shelled
after Bulgarian troops had occu-
pied it.
* * *
BULGARIAN Foreign Minister
Mintcho Neytchev told the U. N.
the shelling followed a series of
provocative acts on the part of
Greece along the border. He
charged that shells andmines fell
on Bulgarian territory during the
attack.
Neytchev called on the U. N. to
transmit the protest to the Greek
government and circulate it
among U. N. members. This was
done promptly by the U. N. Sec-
retariat.
A copy also was sent to the U. N.
military observers stationed in
Greece.
IN ATHENS, jittery Greece re-
covered its calm gradually yester-
day in the wake of the brief but
ominous clash.
The official attitude of the
government appeared to be to
tone down the seriousness of the
incident, but there were strong
evidences here that the clash
caused genuine fears of a Bal-
kan flareup.
Acting Premier Sophocles Veni-
zelos told a packed news confer-
ence that Greek forces have been
alerted to keep Bulgarians off the
tiny, deserted island until Greek
sovereignty over the piece of fron-
tier real estate is officially rec-
ognized by the United Nations.
BUT LATER Venizelos sought to
minimize the incident. He told re-
porters "the uproar created in
America" over the clash could be
attributed to the "inexperience" of
observers of the U. N. Balkans
subcommittee.
Justice Dept.
Posts Filled
WASHINGTON -(A)--Some of
the numerous vacancies in top-
level positions in the Justice De-
partment were filled yesterday.
The new appointments, made
by President Truman on Atty.
Gen. McGranery's recommenda-
tions, were:
* * *
ROSS L. MALONE Jr., 42-year-
old attorney of Roswell, N. M.,
never before in the federal gov-
ernment, to be deputy attorney
general. In the No. 2 post under
McGranery, Malone succeeds A.
Devitt Vanech, who resigned as
deputy last week to run for the
U. S. Senate from Connecticut.
Charles B. Murray, 52 years
old, an assistant U. S. attorney
for the District of Columbia for
the last 25 years, to be assistant
attorney general in charge of the
Criminal Division..
He will step into the post held
since 1950 by James M. McInerney,
shifted by McGranery yesterday to
become head of the lands division,

which handles the purchase and
sale of government lands and liti-
gation connected with these prop-
erties.

Too Hot
NEW YORK -(A'P)- Tirza, a
well stacked platinum blonde,
pleaded in court yesterday to
be al owed to reopen her Coney
Island girlie show, in which she
does a "wine bath" act.
"My presentation," she ex-
plained, "takes us back to the
year 200 B.C. in the city of
Athens. Greek mythology. Very
beautiful and educational."
Maybe so, said city inspec-
tors who closed her act last
Friday, but it's too hot for 1952.

Senators Hit
HIST's .Plan
For Session
WASHINGTON-()-Chairman
Maybank (D-S.C.) of the Senate
Banking Committee joined other
Democratic senators yesterday in
throwing cold water on President
Truman's suggestion that he might
call a special anti-inflation session
of Congress.
"I do not see what results can
be gained," Maybank said in a
statement.
REPUBLICANS privately called
the idea a political move designed
to cast the Democratic administra-
tion in the role of defender against
rising prices.
Some GOP critics made it
clear that if Truman does call
a special session, they will use
it as a forum for all-out attacks
on the President and the Demo-
cratic nominee, Gov. Adlai Stev-
enson of Illinois.
Truman told his news confer-
ence Thursday he was worried
about rising prices-now at an
all-time high on the government
cost-of-living index-and indicat-
ed that if further increases occur
he may call Congress back in ses-
sion. He said he is awaiting de-
velopments.
* * *
TWENTY-FOUR hours earlier,
Price Stabilizer Ellis Arnall had
suggested to Truman that it might
be necessary to reconvene Con-
gress to enact tighter price con-
trols.
On Capitol Hill, Democrats
and Republicans alike gave the
ide a chill reception-for dif-
ferent reasons.
Even administration supporters
said it might be a tactical error
that could boomerang against the
Democrats. They reasoned that
Truman could scarcely blame a
Democratic Congress if it failed to
hold down prices without giving
the Republicans a hefty charge of
ammunition for use in the politi-
cal campaign.
* * * -
IN ADDITION to Maybank, Sen.
Josph C. O'Mahoney of Wyoming,
chairman of the Senate-ouse Eco-
nomic Committee, and Sen. A. S.
Mike Monroney of Oklahoma, head
of the - Democratic Campaign
Speakers Bureau, spoke out against
a special session.
O'Mahoney told newsmen he
thinks it would be futile to call
congress back to Washington in
the thick of the political wars.

"MEDIATION efforts under the

without satisfaction to the work-

est, we are asking reluctantly that
our members bear the brunt of an-
other round of the same process."
In their wire to the mediation

forced to leave this country be-
cause he paid 90 cents in Commun-
ist dues 18 years ago.
The attorney general told a news
conference that'he is going to have

SEOUL-(P)-The Allies applied
relentless aerial pressure to North
Korea yesterday for the fifth
straight day, raking it with bombs
and shooting down three Migs.
In five blistering days of air
combat-as hot as the tempera-
tures onithe ground below-the Al-'
lies have knocked 18 MIGs from
the skies and damaged 19 more,
the Air Force said. Allied losses
are listed weekly.

THE AIR battles broke out high
over Northwest K o r e a after
swarms of fighter-bombers once
more roared out in the bright sun-
shine, chewing up enemy targets
with bombs, rockets and jellied
gasoline.
Protecting U. S. Sabre jets
took on the MIGs, which tried
to challenge the bombers, and
turned back the Russian-built
fighters in a series of dog fights
that produced another U. S. jet
ace.
Capt. Clifford D. Jolley, a na-
tive of Cleveland, Ohio, who now
makes his home at Salt Lake City,
got one of the three enemy planes.
With the two he bagged the day
before, that gave him a total of
five, the number needed to qualify
as an ace.

In U.S. Says
JusticeDept.
WASHINGTON-(M)-The Jus-
tice Department said yesterday an
investigation had established that
about 100 Canadians who entered
the United States and settled in
the Detroit area obtained immigra-
tion visas through fraud. \
Attorney General McGranery
said deportation proceedings have
been started in one case with a
hearing scheduled at Detroit for
next Wednesday. He said other
cases will receive "appropriate ac-
tion."
THE ANNOUNCEMENT said
that most of the Canadians in-
volved had obtained their visas
through misrepresentations made
to -the American consulate at
Windsor, Ontario.
"It appears," the department
said, "that these visas were ob-
tained by presenting to the con-
concerning bank deposits and
supporting documents, such as
knowing that the information
contained therein was false.
McGranery said the inquiry was
carried out by the Immigration
Service and that the Windsor Con-
sulate and the State Department
cooperated in the inquiry.

tics since 1936. Except for a
four year period during the last
war when he worked for the gov-
ernment on Middle Eastern af-
fairs, conventions and routine
party work have been the form-
er University student's steady
diet.
His own entrance into the poli-
tical scene came in 1950 after G.
Mennen Williams (another of his
former students) had been elected
governor.
THE PROFESSOR had known
Williams for a long time and the
resulting great interest in his
work as governor and in building
the state Democratic party soon
led Dawson into a "strenuous,
though extraordinarily interesting"
campaign against Meader for Con-
gress.
During that time he engaged
in nearly every conceivable type
of political activity from round-
the-clock speechmaking to dis-
tributing campaign literature
and soliciting funds.
Prof. Dawson recalled the time
when a southern Michigan cam-
paign stint accidently led him
across the state line into Ohio-
far from his Second Congressional
District. Although he had always
enjoyed meeting varied groups of
people during his political career,
this time he cut his speeches short
when a road sign showed him his
Sen. McKellar
Loses to Gore
NASHVILLE, Tenn.-()-Late
returns from scattered precincts
Friday rolled up a wider margin
of defeat for veteran Sen. K. D.
McKellar in Thursday's Tennessee
Democratic senatorial primary.
With unofficial returns complete
from all but a few of the state's
2,300-odd precincts, hard-hitting
Rep. Albert Gore had a decisive
lead of more than 75,000 votes
over the 83-year-old dean of the
U. S. Senate. McKellar was seek-
ing an unprecedented seventh
term.
McKellar's defeat, which he
smilingly conceded today, was
only a part of the political un-
heaval that swept Tennessee in
the Democratic and Republican
primaries Thursday.

mistake and hurried back to Mich-
igan where his speech-making
might pay off in votes.
*, * *
SINCE HIS defeat in 1950, Prof.
Dawson's politicking has been vig-
orous, though "strictly extra-cur-
ricular." His work has been mostly
devoted to helping with loca elec-
tions and building the precinct or-
ganization.
The latter function involves
locating the registered Demo-
crats and getting them to devote
time and money to the party,
he explained. It also includes
forming "get-out-the-vote" com-
mittees and holding finance and
voter registration drives, he said.
"We are all strictly amateurs
and therefore have to rely on
many small contributions rather
than a fewr small ones," Prof.
Dawson continued.
LOOKING TOWARD Novem-
ber, he expects the Democrats to
make a much better showing in
the district, which includesRepub-
lican Washtenaw County and vi-
cinity than they have in the past.
This is because of the large reg-
istration and primary turnout
which is "most promising from a
Democrat's point of view." Prof.
Dawson pointed to Survey Re-
search Center and other polls
which he said have found that
Democrats form the largest per-
centage of that politician's head-
ache-the "non-voters."
Although his campaign will not
get into high gear until Septem-
ber, Prof. Dawson knows from ex-
perience that it will be strenu-
ous but he has no regrets about his
choice - "especially since Adlai
Stevenson is heading the ticket."
West German
Debt Payment
Plan Approved
LONDON - W) - A 26-nation
conference yesterday approved a
plan by which the West German
government will pay off virtually
all of Germany's huge pre-war
debts at generally reduced inter-
est rates.
Over a period of up to 42 years,
West Germany will gradually re-
pay to creditors the world over
some 22 to three billion dollars
in private pre-war debts.
THE DEBTS to be repaid in-
clude remaining principal on the
big Dawes loan of 1924 and the
even bigger Young loan of 1930
in which private investors, mainly
American, loaned Germany a to-
tal of some 300 million dollars.
Some 140 million dollars is
still owing to Americans on
these two loans.
By taking on the huge repay-
ment task, West Germany will
earn financial independence and
wipe out the debts run up by Ger-
many between the two World
Wars.

Stevenson
Names Dem
Chairman
Mitchell Replaces
Frank McKinney
SPRINGFIELD, Ill.- (P)-Gov.
Adlai E. Stevenson pulled a polit-
ical surprise yesterday by naming'
Chicago lawyer Stephen Mitchell
as Democratic National Chairman.
Mitchell - a newcomer to the
Democratic national scene - suct
ceeds.Frank E. McKinney of In-
diana.
STEVENSON'S choice was an-
nounced after the Executive Com-
mittee of the Democratic National
Committee had given' its approval
to Mitchell. He is expected to be
elected to the post formally at an
early meeting of the full com.
mittee.
The Democratic presidential
nominee-voiced his "utmost
gratitude" for the services of
McKinney who ias held the post
on a temporary basis since the
Democratic National Convention
in Chicago.
Stevenson said in a news re-
lease that Mitchell and MKinney
will meet with him here tomorrow
to discuss presidential campaign
plans. The Illinois governor's cam-
paign manager, Wilson Wyatt of
Louisville, Ky., also will sit in on
the meeting.

MITCHELL IS an old friend of
Stevenson's. He is Irish and a
Catholic as most of the Demo-
cratic national chairmen have
been for years. He is 49 years old 
and a native of Rock Valley, Ia
With this move, Stevenson once
again drew away from the old-line
Democrats in naming the men who
will play the leading roles in di-
recting his campaign.
IN CHICAGO the newly selected
National Chairman, told newsmen
recently that he is "not a pol-
tician" although he had worked
actively in three Democratic cam-
paigns.
Dulles Attacks
Administration
Policy Abroad
DENVER -- () - John Foster
Dulles said yesterday that he and
Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower agree
that Truman administration for-
eign policy is'tending "to put ou
nation in the greatest perilin the
entire course of our national his-
tory."
Dulles, chief author of the for-
eign policy plank of the Republi-
can platform, made the statement
at a news conference after a two
hour meeting with Eisenhower
the party's presidential nominee.
* * *
THE ]FORMER adviser to Sece-
retary of State Acheson, hit out
at administration handling of for-
eign policy in almost certainly
the strongest terms he ever has
used.
Yesterday's conference was
called to chart an attack on that
policy-and Dulles said it would
be the major issue of the forth-
coming campaign.
He volunteered that he, Eisen-
hower and Sen. Richard Nixon
of California, the GOP candidate
for vice president, are "all agreed
that the trend of our present for-
eign policies is to put our nation

in the greatest peril it has ever
been in the entire course of our
national history."
* * *
DULLES SAID Russia's leaders
"have been picking up the free
world piece by piece," and added:
"If this process goes on there
will be a balance of power
against us so great that I don't
think a general war can be
avoided, because the Communist
leaders will then have a good
hope of victory."
He went on to say that he be-
lieves Eisenhower alone, as presi-
dent, could check the trend he
outlined.

HE SAID he has the highest
personal regard for Gov. Adlai
Stevenson of Illinois, the Demo-
cratic presidential nominee.

all honesty say that he (Steven-
son) lacks experience, stature, the
