Courts refusal to issue an order
requiring the Secretary OF the
Treasury to pay an American lawyer
for his services in connection with
establishing Pershing Hall in France
as a memorial to American forces
in the World War.
The lawyer, Julian M. Thomas

services and expenses. At the time
he was practicing n Paris. Gov

The Secretary of the Treasury re-

The Court of Appeals decision

Vatican Paper Reptile,
To Soviet Charges on
Naming Of Cardinals
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
VATICAN CITY, Jan. 2s.-The
accusation in Izvestia that the ap-
pointment of seven new English
speaking cardinals had the polit-
ical purpose of Strengthening the
influence (of the Catholic church)
in Anglo-Saxon countries" drew a
retort from the Vatican City news
paper L'Osservatore Romano yes
terday that similar observations
might be made of the appointment
of rs other cardinals.
THE Vatican must have taken
other iniquitous' decisions" Los
servatore Romano said, to increase
its influence in the Latin world
where the increase in cardinals
was still more notable - and also
in China"
Replying to the Soviet govern
ment newspapers criticism of Arch
bishop Francis J. Spellman of New
York, cardinal-designate, on
grounds that he defended the Vat
lean for receiving the japanese
Ambassador, L'Osservatore Romano
pointed out that Archbishop Spell

that, In their desire to control the
atomic bomb, the nations have for
gotten that they we're using many
other weapons of vast destructive
power In the recent war. He argued
also that agreements to outlaw the
atomic bomb would not hold once
another war started. Summing up
his plea for more complete method
OF preventing World War III, the
Marylander said:
Why, I ask, Is the Charter silent
on eventual world disarmament
on the indispensable requisite for
the use of the UNO rather than the
battlefield for the settlement of in
ternational disputes?
IF all the nations of the world
mean what they profess, then why
do the United States, Great Britain
Russia, France, China and SO on
through the long roll call, continue
to mass at home military power
greater than the world has ever
heretofore seen? All the while their
delegates to- the UNO talk only of
the control of the atomic bomb. Is
war without the atomic bomb a
bearable institution? Does it be-
come unbearable only when the
atomic bomb is added to the other
weapons of destruction?
If World War III comes, and this
bomb is to be used anyway, why
not try to avoid that war by the
process Of total world disarmament
save for small and appropriately
armed forces in each nation suf-
ficient to keep the peace. and save
for such forces as are pledged ex-
clusively for the use of the UNO
together with an international in
spection force capable of maintain
ing this state, once it is reached.

Distribution Of Posts
In Cabinet Unsettled
AtChungking Meeting
By the Associated Press.

CHUNGKING, Jan. 29-Govern-
ment concessions today solved a ma
jor problem of the Political Con-
sultation Conference, but a subcom-
mittee on government reorganiza-
tion concluded its work without set
ting another major question.
The concessions increased the
authority of a projected reorgan-
ized state council. 1t previously had
been decided that the Kuomintang
party should have 20 council seats
and other parties and nonpartisans
20.
Distribution of seats in the Execu-
tive Yuan, or cabinet, was the un-
solved major problem. 1t was left
for settlement by negotiation among
different parties after conclusion of
the conference.
Meeting Tonight.
A subcommittee, deadlocked on
the question of distribution of Ma
tional Assembly seats, scheduled a
meeting tonight to attempt a So
luton.
At this mornings meeting, both
the Communist party and the Dem
ocratic League demanded a guaran-
tee that the draft of the constitution
which is to be revised by a 35-man
commission representing all parties
and nonpartisans be adopted with
out change by the Assembly.
The Communists also demanded
that they should have half the num-
Der of Assembly seats held by the
Kuomintang, which now dominates
that body.
Lo Lung-chi, Democratic League
spokesman, predicted there is a
good chance of agreement tonight.
He said that if settlement is
reached, the conference virtually
would be ended. The only remain
ing task would be for a Steering
Committee to compile in proper
form all decisions reached. for nor
NAL passage by a full session of the
conference, which will be held as
soon as Chou En-lai, No. 2 Com
munist, returns from Yenan. A
plane was to fly there today to
fetch him.
Decisions Listed.
simultaneously, it was announced
that the National Defense Council
had passed a resolution for repeal
or amendment of all laws and de-
crees restricting the fundamental
freedoms of the people"
Decisions on the State Council, as
agreed on by a unity conference
subcommittee this morning and re-
ported by government sources, were:
/. The power of appointment will
be transferred to the council from
the, Central Executive Subcommit-
tee'of the Kuomintang.
q Emergency powers of the Presi-
dent of the republic must be ap-
proved by the council before they
are exercised.

overridden by the council by three
