Aluminium Strike ChieI
Admits Having Gone
To Prison as Youth
BoIiont Says Charge
Wos Unjustified; Denies
Any Communist Ties

Records of the House Committee
on n-American Activities revealed
today the admission of Alex Balint,
leader of the G. l. o. Die Casters
Union, which called a strike at the
Cleveland plant of the Aluminium
Co. of America, that he was an alien
and had served prison term in
his youth for automobile theft.
Mr.. Balint, who testified yesterday
at special hearing which the
House group called hastily, denied
he had ever been a Communist, but
after he left the stand two witnesses
said he had represented himself as
party member and had urged
them to join.
The leader of the strike which was
settled last night did not return to
the stand to refute the testimony
of these witnesses, but, after listen
ing to them for a few minutes, left
the room with his lawyer, Edward
Lamb of Toledo.
Mr.. Balint testified that he was
born in Hungary and came to this
country in 1920 He has applied
for citizenship, he added, but has
not received his final papers. He
said he understood his naturaliza-

Mr.. Balint testified that he was
convicted of auto theft when he was
is years old ana served II months
in the reformatory.
He contended that he was unjust
ly accused. He explained that he
was riding with two companions in
have been stolen, He had not known
it was stolen when he got in, he
said.
MIR. Balint charged that company
agents provoked the strike while he
and other union officials we're here
to negotiate working conditions with
the Defense Mediation Board.
The union leader also accused a
manager of fomenting sabotage
charges against the workers. Mr.
Balint said he had witnesses who
saw the manager of the affiliated
magnesium company of the ALUMNI
mum Co. of America, at the plant
known as X walk in with photOg-
rapher and smash molds and
plumbing IN lavatory. Pictures of
the damaged machinery and fixtures
were taken, Mr.. Ballnt said This
happened about month and a half
ago, according to the witness.

ton had been blocked because of

Calls Question Smear Attempt.
Mr.. Balint said he never had
joined any party.
Would you be in favor of eX-
polling Communists from your
uniOn?' he was asked.
Our constitution" the witness
replied, provides that an laboring
men can join. l couldn't revise
our constitution"
Pressed further about his views on
Communism, Mr. Balint retorted: Il
resent being questioned about the
Communist party, because I don't
know anything about it. This ques-
ton is an attempt to smear our
organization and what we are striv-
ing for"
The testimony linking the union
head with the Communists was
given by Mrs. Vera Apergis, former
c. l. o. organizer IN the w. P. A,
and Andrew Balunek, a member of
the Cleveland aluminium plant
union which was on strike until
last night.
Mr.. Balint told me-" Mrs. Apergis
testified, that he'd been a member
of the party since he was II years
ola"
Mrs. Apergis said that in 1889 Mr..
Balint showed her a Communist
membership book and urged her to
sign up" She refused, she said.
Asked whether she still held her
w. P. A. union organizing job, she
answered: No. Balint and his
Communists got the best of me. I
wanted to see the w. P. A. cleared
of Communists. They had a 80 per
cent membership in the union. l
organized the union and then Balint
came in with 300 or 900 members
and took control"
Mr. Balunek said he often had
met Balint in a Communist hail in
the Hungarian section Of Cleveland.
They had worked together at the
Republic Steel Co plant, this wit
ness said.
HE said he was Communist and

get. TO be submitted to the legisla-
tors in January. Otherwise it's
foreseen that the taxpayers backs
will break.
That there's tremendous public
demand for economy there's no
question.
The difficulty is that each group
OF benehciaries Of their particular
taxation item want reductions
made at all the other groups eX-
pense. but not at their own. Con-
trariwise most of EN- want, for
their own especial selves, increases.
The committees problem is to
hit on a plan for granting larger
Individual allowances all around, at
the same time trimming down the
total. It's headed by Senator
Harry Byrd.

men Walter F. George and Robert

few Republicans are in the bunch,
too, among them Representative
Allen T. Treadway. who was ways
and means chairman when the G.
o. p. was in power. Treasury Sec
retary Henry Morgenthau and Bud
get Director Harold D. Smith are
on the list also. but they're ex-of-
ficio. It's essentially a congress
slonal committee. Morgenthau and
Smith are needed, though, as ad-
visers.
The pair last referred to aren't
on such hot spot. As appointed
executives, they can advise as they
like, and to heck with the voters.
The senators and representatives,
however, with future election days
to think about, are starting in on
a dozen bad headaches.
Morgenthau Says Billion
