Freedom for Greece
Must Be Maintained,
Taft Tells Ahepa

The United States and the United
Nations must see to it that Greece
which sacrificed greatly in the war
receives the liberty it deserves anC
the means with which to defend
that liberty, Senator Taft, Repub-
lican, of Ohio, told approximately
1000 members and guests of the
Order of Ahepa at its national
banquet at the Statler Hotel last
night.
Speaking on the 125th anniversary
OF the declaration of the independ-
ence of modern Greece, the Senator
said: In the case of too many small
nations since the war, we have seen
our ideals go down before the i'm
pact of force or succumb to the lure
Of expediency. 1t must not happen
in Greece"
Would Adjust Boundaries,
Senator Taft said Greece de-
serves a strategic adjustment of its
boundaries which would enable it
to defend "the freedom which it
should be our task to see they have
for all time to come
His audience included so many
members of Congress that Rep
resentative Mccormack, Democrat
OF Massachusetts,, who followed Sen
ator Taft to the rostrum, remarked
that "as majority leader, I have
wished many times I had as many
Democrats on the floor of the House
as 1 see here tonight. On the other
hand, I have also often wished !

Fotitch Urges Byrnes
To Aid MihaiIoyich
In Getting Fair Trial

A plea has been sent to Secretary
Of State Byrnes urging the United
States to use its influence to see
that American officers who worked
with Gen. Draja Mikhailovich dur
ing the war be permitted to testify
In Belgrade at the forthcoming
treason trial of the Yugoslav guer-
rilla leader.
The appeal was contained in a
telegram from DR.. Constantin A.
Fotitch, former Yugoslav Ambassa-
dor. Secretary Byrnes also was
asked to use his influence to estab-
lish Gen. Mihailovich's right to
choose American or other Allied
counsel for the trial, result of which
is frankly stated by representatives
of the Tito government to be fore
gone conclusion.
The trial can be something more
than mockery of justice if Amer
leans are permitted to testify, DR..
F'otitch declared. Without their
testimony, he said, the general will
certainly be found guilty despite
the fact that up until the very end
OF the occupation the Germans had
price of 100000 gold marks on
his head"
Captured March Is.
| Capture on March Is of the for
mer Chetnik leader, described by
DR.. Fotitch as the symbol" of the
Serbian peoples struggle against
tyranny" was announced yesterday
by the Yugoslav government.
DR.. Fotitch reminded Secretary
Byrnes that Gen. Mihailovich's con-
tribution to the Allied cause had
been recognized by appreciative tel
egrams from numerous Allied COM
manders, including Gen. Eisenhower
He named American officers who
witnessed the bearded guerrilla's ef-
forts and urged that their reports be
made public Immediately.
DR.. Fotitch also asked that reports
OF Americans attached to Marshal
I1to's partisans, be made public at
the same time.
Aided American FLYERS.
Aou aic Ho OOupJ aware. Mr..
Secretary, that Gen. Mihailovich
and his men, at heavy cost to them
selves, rescued and turned over to
military authorities over 500 Amer
lcan airmen shot down
over territory under his control" the
Fotitch telegram said.
Two letters. said to have been
received from American airmen
rescued by Mihailovich, were quoted
by the former Ambassador.
They Cthe Chetniks) saved me
from the Germans not once but six
or seven times, and l do not think

Mlhanovich's forces were collabo-
rating with the enemy" said one.
The other read in part: If onlv
some one could open the poor ewes
OF the blind American public. a
wonderful group of people might
receive their due recognition. I.
l vowed to myself that if l could
ever possibly begin to repay those
people for all they had done for me

Dangerous Hole
Opens On Ground
Central School

A dangerous and rather myster-
ious hole opened On the playground
1t Central school on South William
street today, and aroused some
speculation as to its cause.
\ boy romping around on the
ground felt the earth give under
his feet, but was in no immediate
peril Of sinking into the cavity. The
opening extended downward at an
angle of about As degrees, and an
aight-foot iron bar pushed into the
hole was not long enough to touch
POTION.
Some observers specialized that
underneath was a void where once
there was an ice storage some forty
years ago before the school was
built. II this theory should be cor
rect. there would be the uncertainty
as TO why it was not filled al the
time the school was erected. Central
is the oldest white school in Hon
derson and has been continuously in
use more than a third Of a century.
The opening somewhat resembled
the caVe-in of a discarded we'll, but
but was no certainty as to what lies
beneath. Meantime, school children
were steered away from the danger
spot.

the past 50 years had been bull wark of reaction, the A. F. of l.. leader said 1t "had opposed every effort on the part of the working people to obtain beneficial legiSla- ton. The N. A. M. fought all child labor bills, opposed unemployment insurance and other social security bills and the National Labor Rela- tions Act. It even opposed the eight hour day, calling it vicious, needless, preposterous.
 Now 1t sends high-priced lobby ists to Washington to oppose the broadening of minimum wage and social security legislation. works against the bill that would speed housing construction for veterans at prices they can afford to pay and seeks to emaSculate the Ma tional Labor Relations Act on the spacious grounds that it does not protect employers.
 "The long history of employers coercion of labor their setting up of fake unions, their interference with the efforts of workers to or ganize, their use of yellow dog con- tracts and their employment of la- Dor spies resulted in the passage of that Act to protect workers in their right to organize But when did workers ever coerce employers or prevent them from establishing their associationS?"
 MT. Rourke declared that many progressive induStrialiStS of the type of Henry J. Kaiser are repelled by the tactics of the N. A. M. and are announcing that "the extremists in control of that organization do not represent their viewpoint"
 The speaker announced that plans were being made for a statewide labor rally in the near future to support the continuation of price and rent controls, and expressed the hope that the Norwalk Central Labor Union and it's affiliated local unions would send representatives to this meeting.
