Eisenhower Proposes
u, S.-Phi|ippine Pacts
Providing Air Bases
American Military Power
In Islands Is Declared
Dependent on Agreements
BY the Associoted Press

MANILA, May 4.-Gen. Eisen-
hover tonight said American
military strength in the Philip
pines would depend on political
agreements between the United
States and the Philippine Re-
public. He added that the United
States hopes arrangements can
be made for air bases in the
archipelago. --
His reference to bases was regarded
as significant in the light of state
ment to the Associated Press last
Thursday by President-elect Manuel
Roxas assuring the United States oi
close cooperation for defense.
II will so arrange the defense oi
these islands," Mr.. Roxas said. that
it may be intimately co-ordinated
with the plans of the United States
for maintenance of defensive bases
in the Philippines
Mr.. Roxas plans to fly to Wash
ington May with High Commits
sioner Paul V. McNutt for talks witf
President Truman and other off
cials.
Hits Speed of Demobilization.
Gen. Eisenhower's statement on
the Philippines was made at press
conference after a tour of military
installations in the Manila area.
The speed of demobilization has
seriously handicapped the mainte-
nance of vital American military
bases in the Pacific, he said.
There are millions of dollars
worth of equipment to be taken care
of, and no one to take care of it,
he added, citing the shrinkage of the
7th Air Force at Honolulu to only
404 men and remarking, "the same
general conditions apply elsewhere
in the Pacific"
Gen. Eisenhower plans to fly to
Shanghai Wednesday and then to
Korea and Japan.

laration cabled to the Associated
Press in Washington today, reiter-
ated his previous assurances of sup

PIebiscite Proposed
By Byrnes 10 Settle
a|o-YugosIay Line
Russia and Brituin Won't
Bollot to Cover Entire
Area Under Dispute
BY the Associoied Press

PARIS, May 4.-Secretary of
State Byrnes tonight proposed
holding a plebiscite in the mo
Mans Land" between boundaries
projected by the Americans and
Russians to settle the Italo>
Yugoslav border dispute, an
American source reported.
He was opposed by the Soviet
and British Foreign Ministers, who
said any plebiscite should cover the
entire area claimed by both Italy
and Yugoslavia. But Mr.. Byrnes
asked the other ministers to think
over his proposal before another
meeting tomorrow, it was said.
Earlier, Foreign Minister vyache-
slav M. Molotov received a cold re-
ception on an offer to meet Italian
interests halfway" on colonial and
reparations questions if the dis
puted city of Trieste was given to
Yugoslavia, British informants said.
But on this point Foreign Secre-
tary Ernest Bevin declared you
cannot bargain away peoples lives"
these sources added.
Yugoslavia Issuees Warning.
The whole question of the dis
puted border area of Venezia Giulia
with its main city of Trieste, was
pointed up by Yugoslav Deputy
Premier Edward Kardelj, who as
serted Yugoslavia would take "any
measures it might judge necessary"
if the foreign ministers put Slo-
venes in that territory under Italian
rule.
He told a news conference at
Soviet headquarters that Yugoslavia
could never accept Big Four de-
cision giving Yugoslav peoples to
another country"
Russia insists on a boundary CIV
ing Trieste and most of Venezia
Giulia to Yugoslavia. Britain and
France have proposed boundaries
roughly similar to the American
one.
The foreign ministers argued the
border question three hours this
and again this afternoon
in a two-hour meeting. Then they
scheduled a session tomorrow.
Byrnes Wants Machines Returned.
Before making his plebiscite sug-
gestion, Mr.. Byrnes said he could
accept the British line, which runs
west of the American line at the
tip of the Istrian Peninsula, pro-
vided Yugoslavia would return to
Italy the modern coal-mining ma
chinery around Alberna, informants
said.
The American line would give AL
berna and its coal mines and the
port of Pola to Italy, whereas the
British line runs straight down Is
tria, leaving those two localities to
Yugoslavia.
British sources said Mr.. Bevin
had objected to the whole idea of
a plebiscite on the ground that ii
was contrary to the London decision
to draw an ethnic frontier, and
would reopen the whole dispute.
The British also reported that
French Foreign Minister Georges
said he had no objection in
to Mr.. Molotov's idea for
a plebiscite covering all Of Venezia
Giulia, but he wanted complete de-
tails on how the vote would be taken
before he could agree.
British sources said Mr.. Molotov
had insisted that Yugoslavia's
claims, including the city of Trieste.

been "a springboard for Fascist ex-

BY the ASsocioied Press

SAN FRANCISCO, May A.
The siege of Alcatraz ended to-
day with the official announce
ment that the last of the con-
spirators had been taken into
custody.
Two guards and three convicts are
known to have died in the struggle.
but the total number of convict
casualties was not made known i'm
mediately. Fourteen guards were
wounded.
James v. Bennett, Federal Prison
director, and Warden James A.
Johnston announced that the last
Of the conspirators were taken into
custody when the three ringlead-
ers-Joseph Paul Cretzer. Los An
geles bank robber; Bernard Coy,
Kentucky bank robber, and Marvin
F. Hubbard, Tennessee kidnaper-
were found dead and their weapons
recovered.
Resistance Ended.
The announcement came from
the two officials in the form of an
swers to questions which had been
asked by press services.
"At the end of the battle this
morning" the statement read,
there was no resistance"
The statement said Cretzer, Coy
and Hubbard probably died as a
result of gun shots in the tunnel
or utilities corridor in a cell block.
Hubbard. according to the doctors
report, probably died this morning
around 8 o'clock The others died
earlier. Probably Coy died last eve
ming and Cretzer somewhat later"
The officials said the total number
of conspirators who had taken part
in the riot had not yet been finally
established, but added that in addi-
ton to previously named men Miriam
Edgar Thompson, Texas murderer
and kidnaper, and Sam Shockley
Oklahoma bank robber, were ring
leaders. The statement added that
there were two or three others
whose names we cannot yet reveal"
Previously. Warden Johnston had
included Clarence Carnes, Oklahoma
murderer, among the ringleaders,
but he was not named in the latest
statement.
Investigation Begun.
The statement did not clarity
whether the search of the cell block
which the conspirators had held
against deadly gunfire for 40 hours
had been completed.
Daniel c. Deasy, Assistant United
States Attorney, and seven FBI in
vestigators landed on the island this
afternoon to begin an investigation.
Mr.. Reasy said the death sentence
would be demanded for all who are
indicted by the Federal Grand Jury
as result of the investigation.
The attempted break, perhaps the
most spectacular in the history of
Federal prisons, was a complete fail.

The riot began, according to un-
confirmed reports, when Coy hooked
a T-square around the neck of a
guard and gained access to weapons,
the exact number of which still has
not been revealed by prison officials.
Opened Fire on Guards.
The convicts then dashed through
the cell block, rounding up guards.
These they herded into cell, where
they opened fire on the helpless
men. At least one of the survivors
named Cretzer as the man who shot
him.
One guard, Harold P. Sites, was
kicked to death. 1t was believed

DR.. w. A. Wiser t Hooft, of Holland, gen.
eral secretary of the World Council of
Churches, comprising 80 denominations in
80 countries, says that 'all the evidence
is that the Russians themselves are giving
the churches, as such, freedom"
The fact that the early revolutionary
movement seemed hostile to religion is un-
doubtedly based upon the enmity express
ed toward the churches in Russia as organi-
cations. 1T is we'll known that the Russian
church and its, ddighitarieS were part and

1t is always necessary. to distinguish
hostility to church organizations from hos
tility to religion. There is vast differ
ence. Very often in the past, in various
countries, church organization has arous-
ed the hostility of the people. Rarely,
however, have any people been actively
hostile TO religion.
