TO FILE REPORT
President Truman Ends I'm
munity Granted Allies
During War

WASHINGTON, Oct. g. ~
Agents of Russia, Great Britain
and other wartime allies will here
after have to file public statements
of their activities in this country.
Attorney General Tom Clark dis
closed this Tuesday. During the
war, allied representatives were
not required to make such state
ments, but Clark said President
Truman put an end to the wartime
policy Sept. 30.
Accredited diplomatic represen-
tatives and commercial agents are
not affected by the action. Those
who are affected must turn in
statements which will lbe available
flor public inspection at the Justice
department.
Clark said in a statement:
THE Foreign Agents Registra-
ton act was designed by Congress
to enable the American people to
ascertain theidehtify of foreign
agents so their statements and ac-
tons may be appraised in the light
of their associations and their acti-
vities.
THE war time conditions which
warranted special disclosure pro-
cedure no longer exist"
In a separate statement, a Justice
department spokesman said the de-
partment had asked II Europeans
who attended the recent American
Slav congress in New York to reg
lister as agents of a foreign power.
The II included six Russians, five
U~krainians, three Bulgarians, two
Poles and one Czech.
In New York, the Russian con-
sulate general said that the six
Russians and five Ukrainians had
acknowledged receipt of the req
uest ''but they have not register
ed" One of the Ukrainians was i'd
entitled at the consulate as Alex
ander Korneichuk, a playwright
and former Ukraine foreign COM
missar.
Vice Consul Anatol Yakovlev said
the Soviet embassy in Washington
had made representations to the
State Department on behalf of the
II Russians and Ukrainians. He did
not state the nature of the repre-
sensations.
Under Secretary Of State Dean
Acheson was asked about the reg
istration request at his new confer

for agreement.
Hopes Blasted
Accord was within grasp for a
few hours earlier, but nearly van
ished when it came to writing out
terms for preferential hiring.
Capt. Harry Martin, president OF
the AFL union, blamed government
subsidies for what he called the
"present arrogant attitude OF the
Pacific American Shipowners as
ISOLATION"
because they are obtaining sub
stantial money payments from the
u, S. Treasury, the West coast op-
orators are protected against loss
from the current strike" Martin
said in a formal statement.
He said they are receiving up to
$50 per day for each vessel operat-
ed under an agency agreement.
He estimated this totaled $1,000
daily cor almost 500, 600 since the
beginning of the strike for the Pa
cific coast alone"
because of this financial back
ing by the u. S. Treasury, the
Pacific shipowners feel that they
can defeat the union in a long,
drawn-out battle" Martin said.
.Eowever 7 am confident that an
informed public opinion will sup
port the union by demanding inn
mediate action by the U. S. Mari
time commission TO suspend these
subsidy payments during the
