STALIN ASKS. SIX BILLI0N N DOLLAR LOAN
Reaction of Congressional Leaders Is Reported
 in Washington

WASHINGTON, Sept 18-Russia may have to make some trade con- sessions and open her financial books to get loan from the United States.
 That was the reaction of Con- gressional leaders here today to reports Generalissimo Stalin had told group of legislators visiting Moscow that the Soviets want a S6,O00,0O0000 loan.
 Stalin was said to have informed a group of House members headed by Rep. Colmer (D-Miss) that Russia needs economic aid to re- store the damages of war and lift it's living standards. Senator Pepper D-Fla.) apparently heard the same story when he later talked with the Premier alone.
 There were some whistles in Con- gress at the amount involved.
 And Chairman George D-GaD of the Senate Finance Committee said any loan of that amount would have to be preceded with guaran- tees that this country would get real consideration in the economic field" so far as Russian trade goes.
 T think Congress is going to move cautiously in this matter, George told a reporter.

TRIAL AS WAR CRIMINAL IS ALSO WANTED
Senator Russell Introduces Resolution Putting
 Congress on Spot

WASHINGTON, Sept 18--Senator Russell CD-GD introduced a reso- lution today which would put Con gress on record as favoring trial of Japanese Emperor Hirohito as a war criminal.
 It would direct that steps toward that end be taken by the Command CT of the American forces and by American representatives on any in- ternational body dealing with Japan's future.
 Earlier, Russell had demended the Emreror's arrest as war criminal. The Georgia Senator decried, in an address prepared for Senate deliv- ny, which he described as a soft peace developing for Japan. He said if present policies are contin- ued, we are headed for complete failure and another war" in the Orient.
 Russell was the first to bring be- fore the Senate complaints about the arrangements under which Japan surrendered.
 Several of his colleagues have voiced similar dissatisfaction pri- vately since the peace terms were signed.
 Under those terms Hirohito re- mains on his throne but takes orders from Gen. Douglas MacArthur. No promise was made that he would not be tried for war crimes. The Japa- nese people are, to decide what form of government they want.
 Some senators who previously had called for Hirohitos trial as war criminal said they had not changed their minds. They added they had not renewed these demands publicly because of the delicacy of occupation operations. This factor caused Rus sell to delay his speech week,
 The Georgian said that by treating the Emperor with great deference" the Allies are failing to impress the Japanese people with the fact that they have lost the war.
 This treatment, he added, is lay ing the groundwork for the estab- lishment of a myth that the Japa- nese were not defeated. Japanese leaders already are trying to create the impression, he said, that The Emperor has done the Allies great favor by stopping the war"

OCCUPATION

No Elaboration of Mac Arthur s Statement on

TOKYO, Sept. 18-Gen. MacAr- thurs headquarters, newly estab- 'lished opposite the Imperial Palace, reported today that Japan has been permitted to maintain sharply restricted air transport service radi- ating from Tokyo, with no more than four planes in the air at a time and subject to cancellation whenever it ceases to further AL lied interests.
 The occupation of this defeated country proceeded quietly, with no further elaboration of MacArthur's statement of yesterday that 100000 Regular Army troops would be suf- ficient to rule Japan within six months, following complete de- mobilization" of Pacific draftees. Previous lowest estimates for the occupation force had been 100000.
 Occupation Policy
 Dispatches from Washington de- scribed the State Department as surprised" and concerned" at MacArthur's 100000 estimate, which drew favorable comment from the members of Congress. .i
 One Washington official said it was feared that MacArthur's state ment might spread the impression abroad that the United States was planning to withdraw 'at an early date" Leaving Japan largely in charge of her own affairs.
 There was no comment here on the Washington leacJlon or on tiis possibility that President Truman might have to define the American occupancy policy.
 It. Gen. Robert L. Eichelberger, Commanding U. S. Eighth Army occupation forces on Honshu, said recently that the occupation could end in year if it continues smoothly.

 Merry Go Round
By DREW PEARSON

WASHINGTON = No one on Capitol Hill will admit it openly, but President Trumans own con- fidential memo regarding the $25- a-week Kilgore Unemployment Bill was cleverly used backstage to de- feat the measure.
 The White House memo, SUD- posed to be secret, was read out loud by Chairman George of Georgia in the closed-door session of the Senate Finance Committee. This ended the battle. It gave an out to certain anti-administration Democrats Radcliffe of Maryland, Gerry of Rhode Island, Byrd of Virginia, Bailey of North Carolina, and George). They used the Tru- man name to defeat the bill which he had placed at the top of his message to Congress.
 Here is the inside story of what happened.
 Truman has followed the same procedure as FDR in sending Sen- ate Majority Leader Barkley memos on bills which he considers vital to his program. These memos are supposed to be secret, for the in- formation of Barkley and a few other leaders.
 The Truman memo on the Kill gore Bill was kept secret at first During one session of the Senate Finance Committee, Senator George had the memo in front of him and admitted that he had it, but did not read it aloud.

Oil Workers Join Those in Auto Industry Who Are
 Making Demands
(By The Associated Press)

Fresh fuel Was poured onto the nations burning labor issues today as the wave of postwar work stope pages, already keeping idle some 100000 workers, spread to the oil industry. tf
 As President Truman prepared to step into the turbulent labor strife in the motor industry, the hardest hit by tEe work stoppages with some o0,000 idle in the Detroit area alone, dissention among the rest of the country's labor front became more pronounced.
 CIO oil workers left their jobs in East Chicago, Ind, and in the Detroit area yesterday and strikes threatened all Gulf Oil and Texas Company refineries in Texas. Union officials said some 3o000 workers in six states had been alerted for a possible industry wide strike to en- force union demands for reduction in work-week hours from 52 to 40 with no cut in pay. They were in Michigan, Wisconsin, Indiana. Illin- cis, Ohio and Kentucky.
 In Detroit, CIO United Automobile Workers leaders proceeded with their plans for strike votes in Ford, General Motors and Chrysler Cor poration plants in their fight to ob- tain a 30 per cent wage increase.
 There was a similar demand in Chicago by the CIO United Farm Equipment and Metal Workers Union as it served notice on four major tractor companies employming 90,- GOO members.
