100000 Veterans
Still Ignore Pleas 10
|Reinsfafe Insurance
By Edword NeIIor

Despite wholesale liberalizing of
CT National-Service Life Insurance
benefits. 100000 veterans, all for
mer policyholders, continue today to
ignore Veterans Administration
lpleas urging them to reinstate the
valuable coverage.
In effect, the veterans are kicking
around an estimated 500, ,0O0, 900 900
in economic security. according to
Gen. Omar N. Bradley, VA admin
istrator, who recently made another
appeal to those who permitted their
policies to lapse since leaving the
services.
Gen. Bradley told me that he was
especially anxious to make it clear
that veterans now are required to
pay only two premiums, or monthly
payments, in order to have the
policy fully reinstated."
Gen. Bradley's insurance troubles
are following the same pattern as
developed after the first World War.
Then, as now, veterans in a ratio of
four to one abandoned the coverage
that protected their kin and them
selves during the conflict. The diff
ference this time, however, is that
many millions more are affected.
In all 100000 veterans retained
their CT policies and now are eligi-
BILE for the new benefits which Con-
gress approved this session at Gen.
Bradley's insistence.

long as the disability exists. Pay
ments of this nature are not sub
tracted from the full face-value of
the policy at maturity or at prior
collection.

be made in installment or in lump

UnomeFic0n Hearing Set
 Atomic Spy Ring
 To Be InvesFic0ted q

washington, March 23-(BUP)- Members of the House unAmerican activities committee said today that they will decide next week whether to hold hearings in their investiga- ton of an alleged atomic spy ring.
 Committee counsel Ernie Adam son said yesterday that he planned to hold committee hearings within month in Knoxville, Tennessee, Chicago, New York and Atlanta. He made the statement shortly after his return from an Investigating trip to the atom bomb plant at Oak Ridge, Tenn.
 His announcement, however, was a surprise to committee members. They emphasized that Adamson must get committee approval be- fore he can go ahead on his hear- ings plans. As yet, they said, the committee has taken no such action.
 "rt's all news to me-" said Rep. Karl B. Mundt, R., 8. D. Maybe there will be hearings but the issue will have to be decided on the evid- ence Adamson gives the committed" "
 He said that Adamson is sched- uled to make Q report on his trip at the next committee meeting Wed- nesday.

 Police on Guard
 Tn another major industrial con- troversy, state police stood guard over the Westinghouse Electric Companys Pittsburg plant to pre- vent reclrrance of Thursdays rioting Federal conciliators withdrew from conferences after reporting that negotiations had broken down and that there appeared no possibility for compromise"
 Mediator W. H. Davis said the company's final offer involved cer- tain deductions from the IS 1-2 cent national wage increase pattern The C.I,O. United Electrical Wor- kers Union said the offer constituted a raise of 9.7 cents, while the com pany contended 1t would raise wages IS cents per hour.
 The west coast shipping contro- versy appeared likely to develop into 6 nationwide dispute on the basis of Currans telegram, which said:
 "The experience of maritime wor- kers since our earliest days has proved united action wins the best wages and working conditions and defeats the most formidable com- bination of ship owners"
 It was believed the union would delay Q decision on whether to post pone the strike pending the out come of current wage discussions.

COP. ,r

(Continued from Page D 7s9 votes although the party's pri- mary list as stated, shows a regis- tration of 19,199. Tn turn Ray mond P. Snyder unsuccessful COP mayoralty candidate received to- tai of l3,465 votes although his party's primary list has but S,299 pledged party voters.
 These primary figures have not altered too much down through the past eight years although slight gains have been made by both par- ties. Tn view of this a review of the past few city elections substan- tiates this analysis.
 Other Results
 Tn the 1943 city election Mayor Monagan boiled a total of 15,372 votes as against 1l,16s for unsuc- cessful COP mayoralty candidate John J. Kearney. Tn the 194l election the late Mayor Vincent A, Scully redeemed the party's glory" by gathering in 20,909 votes as com. parted to the 13,92o of former Mayor Patrick Perriello. In 1889 the late Mayor polled le,sso as against the Republicans Charles c. FoS- ter's 14,965 and the Socialists can- didate John Rings 4,390. This was the election following right on the heels of the famed conspiracy trial and perhaps therefore is indicative Of the hope that the inherent strength and constitution of the Democratic Party Is sound when the chips are down and the going is rough.
 State and the Congressional (speciaO elections again show that perhaps the registered Democratic voters are not being drawn out in full strength during the campaigns For example, the 1922 state elec- ton resulted in but 14,357 Democra- tic votes boiled for former Cover nor Robert Hurley (again that of- ficiel primary registration of ap- proximately l9,000 party support CTS point to) while COP Governor Raymond E. Baldwin polled ll,S76.
 In the special Congressional elec- ton of 1922 in the 5th District won by Cong. Joseph E. Talbot, Mayor Monagail-then not Mayor-polled but 9,Ss6 Democratic votes in Wa terbury as compared to Con. Tal- bots 6986. Tn fairness 1t should be stressed that primary contest votes always are low.
 Tn 1888 former Democratic Gov. ernor Wilbur L. Cross boiled but 12,9l9 votes here as against Gov Baldwins S,454 and Socialists Jas per McLevy's 1882.
 Percentage breakdowns of thu past few elections show that thu Democratic vote has been just abovC the 50 per cent mark in most in' stances. The 1924 national elect!or showed the Democratic vote in Wa terbury as 53 per cent of the tota cast. The 194S election Democra tic results were ST per cent of thu total vote; the 1941 city election wa 59 per cent; the 1889 46 per cen and the 1885 was an even 50 per l.cent.

 Factory Closed

Hartford, Conn, March 23-- (UP)-The Pratt-whitney division of Niles s-Bement-Pond Company closed down by orders of mangae- ment today because of refusal of the C.I.O. United Electrical, Radio and Machine Workers Union to allow tank cars to be moved from a railroad siding.
 The union spokesman for the 5000 strikers said that the union offered to permit oil to enter the plant If the company would agree to certain conditions. The com- pany refused to agree to thse con- ditions or to negotiate them"

 The Treasury sent up lists of articles still in it's warehouses, such as the 10 barrels, or the 995 pounds of baby pantieS and bands, orig inally destined for African infants. It had l,840 pounds of mems shirts in cases with Africa labeled as their destination, plus 25 barrels, or 2,337 pounds of what it's old-faShioned statisticians called women's under shirts for Tunis. Twelve barrels of panties still on hand, the Treasury said, had been ordered for the ladies of Algiers. It mentioned 25,- 232 pounds of sheeting for the beds of Algiers and Casablanca.
 The list was long one, includ- ing such items as 115,719 pounds of writing paper for France, 40, no pounds of tires and tubes for Ta- hiti and other French isles in the South Pacific, 18,7l0 pounds of light bulbs and 5000 pounds of storage batteries for Casablanca, and 4e,l69, ,46S pounds of farm ma- chinery, parts and tools (such as e4 bundles of rakes for African agriculturists.

 1. Secretary of State James F. 1yrnes' decision to argue the Unit ed States case on Iran indicated the importance this country places on that issue. Byrnes considers the basic iSsue-removal of Soviet troops from Iran according to treaty 80 vital a part of American for- eign policy that he wants to argue 1t himself rather than leave 1t to Stettinius, the permanent U. s. Representative.

His statement lessened some of the tension which had been increasing on the eve of the Council meeting because of Russia's policy in Tran. 3. President Trumans decision to postpone the atomic bomb test in the Pacific was immediately in- terpreted by Council delegates as @ move designed to help them con- centrate on problems of peace rath- CT than the spectacular effects of mans new instrument of destruc- tion. The Soviet press has been criticizing American plans to flaunt it's monopolistic weapon in such period of international crisis. Test Case
 None of these developments, h0w~ ever, lesSened the determination of the United States to make a test case of the Iranian dispute with Russia or to insist at the earliest opportunity for immediate consider ation of 1t. Present plans call for devoting next Mondays meeting to formalities-a message from Presi- dent Truman, a statement by chair man Quo Tai-Chi.
