Case Bill Supporters
Shift Efforts 10 Push
Truman Labor Plan
BY the Assoeioted Press

Backers of the vetoed Case labor
disputes bill reported yesterday they
have called off their fight to revive
the controversial measure until
probably next year.
They said they will! work instead
Tor passage of a modified version
of President Humans emergency
strike control legislation, which
would give him power to take over
essential Strike-bound industries.
Added to the presidential pro-
posal, they said, will be only such
sections of the Case plan as the
Chief Executive indicates he will
accept. At present they have no
assurance he will agree to any such
addition.
Opponents of the Case measure
held the decision of its sponsors
to withhold their fight as "a smash
Ing victory" for Mr. Truman.
Not Surrender.
This Interpretation of the move,
which came from Representative
Biemiller. Democrat of Wisconsin
and others who fought the Case leg
islation, was promptly disputed by
its hackers.
I'VE are not surrendering to the
President in any sense" Representa-
tive Case, Republican, of South Da-
kota, author of the measure, told
reporters.
But there is no sense in the
President and Congress making
faces at one another. We are seek
ing a constructive result and we
could not achieve it now by sending
him another bill he would veto.
The issues still exist. however :
and sooner or later we will have to
meet them with legislation such
as ours"
Will Support Joint Committee.
Representative Cox, Democrat, of
Georgia asserted that his colleagues
will go along with creation of a
Joint Senate-House committee, as
requested by Mr.. Truman, to draft
permanent labor regulation legisla-
ton.
The Georgian reported some leg
islators want this committee to
speed up its work and recommend
action before Congress quits in July.
but he doubted that this could be
done.
Mr. Cox said that it thus probably
will be next year before new
strike control bill will be adopted
unless some new major industrial
dLpuSe develops.
Case bill supporters said that for
the present. surveys have shown it
would be impossible to get the nee
essary two-thirds majority to pass
thd legislation over another presI-
dential veto.
They said they have been told
Mr.. Truman would veto the plan
again, even if it were tied to his
emergency bill, as planned earlier
this week

Air National Guard
To Complement AAF
Warning Network

A proposed plan by which the Air
National Guard will complement the
radar warning and control system
of the Army Air Forces in peace
time service that may be used in
war was announced yesterday by
the War Department.
The operation will fit into the
eventual expansion of the Air Ma
tional Guard into u wings, or tao
teal commands. corresponding to
those of the 9th Air Force which
supported landings in Normandy.
Each of the - wings, geographic
cally scattered over the country,
will be assigned several fighter or
light commandment groups of air
craft, as previously announced, but
now it is planned to provide for each
an aircraft control and warning
group.
1t is planned TO train and organize
these groups similarly to those of
the regular AAF. Each group will
consist of 10l officers and 1,048 en-
listed men formed into a head
quarters, one control squadron and
two aircraft control and warning
squadrons. The control squadron
will not operate radar equipment,
its function being merely to operate
the plotting and communication
equipment necessary to consolidate
information received from the two
aircraft control and warning squad
ronS
The wing commander requires
this information "a hours a day so
that he will be aware of all air &C
tivity within his area.
One of the II Air National Guard
Wings, the proposed SD, would
function from Philadelphia and
Washington. The 18th Aircraft
Control and Warning Squadron has
been assigned on paper to Wash
ington, with Boiling Field as it's
base.
These National Guard groups, 1t
was said, will afford an opportunity
for radio amateurs and others in
terested in electronic equipment to
operate and maintain expensive
radio equipment which otherwise
would be beyond their reach. The
National Guard Bureau hopes to en-
list hundreds of these amateurs for
this training

Mihai|ovich Agrees
To Courts Refusal
To Hear Yank Flyers
BY the Assoeioied Press

BELGRADE, June 15.-A defense
request that American ayiators be
permitted to testify for Gen. Draja
Mihailovich was refused by the mill
tary court today after the Chetnik
leader himself declared he did not
agree in principle" with such a
move.
Gen. Mihailovich also repudiated
his testimony yesterday admitting
collaboration, telling the court to-
day Il never collaborated with the
enemy. That means agreement with
the enemy. That was never" He
said he was exhausted when he
answered yes" to questions put to
him by the prosecutor the day be-
fore.
In an oral decision denying the
request to summon the American
witnesses, the president of the court
trying Gen. Mihailovich on charges
of treason and collaboration said:
I'VE have many documents and
witnesses from our country and wit
nesses are not needed from foreign
lands"
Not Valuable Witnesses.
The court president asserted that
men who were in Yugoslavia only
short time would not be as valua BILE
witnesses as those who knew the
situation thoroughly.
The decision was not a surprise,
since the Yugoslav government
previously had turned down a re-
quest that Americans be permitted
to testify as to the antiNazi atti-
tude of Gen. Mihailovich.
Defense Attorney Jovan Djonovic
had proposed that the court sum-
mon as witnesses Capt. Walter
Mansfield of New York, a member
of the United States military mis-
sion attached to Chetnik hesdquar-
tiers: Mike Merlun and j. K. Levin,
airmen rescued by the Chetniks, and
w. L. Rogers, president of the Com
mittee for the Defense of Mihailo-
vich. Capt. Mansfield, was the. first
American officer parachuted into
Yugoslavia. 81
Under court questioning. Gen.
Mihailovich said he would like
time to consider" the proposal, but
the court replied, This is matter
which does not need reflection Do
you agree that these witnesses shall
appear or not?"
In principle I do not agree with
the proposal Gen. Mihailovich an
SWered.
Denies Cola boratiOn.
Gen Mihailovich made it plain
today he did not feel that he could
be accused of collaboration, even
though commanders of his Chetnik
units had pursued such a course.
The Chetnik leader asserted that
he had sought mediation by the
Red Army in Yugoslavia, just be-
fore the wars end and also in 1914.
The prosecution asked Mihailovich.
Did you fight against the national
liberation movement tof Tito as a
fight against Communism or for
some other reason?"
Il have nothing against Com
munism," Mihailovich replied.
The court president prevented
Gen. Mihailovich from answering a
question as to how his capture took
place-something that has not been
revealed.

U. n. Approval Of Plan
For Atomic Control
To Be Slow Process
BY the Associoisd Press

NEW YORK, June 15.-Members
of the United Nations atomic en-
ergy Commission generally agreed
today that approval of an atomic
control plan would be long process
and that Russia's attitude would be
the key factor.
There also was agreement on an
other point: That the plan offered
yesterday by United States Repre-
sentative Bernard NJ Baruch prob
ably would be the only comprehen-
sive plan submitted and that the
other nations would merely offer
amendments.
Don't expect the plan to be ap-
proved next week or next month, "
said one delegate. This plan is of
tremendous Importance. 1t is revo-
lutionary: 1t raises many questions
which will have to be answered"
No Official Comment.
Members of the commission
awaiting instructions from their
governments, indicated there was
not likely to be any official comment
before Wednesday, when the r.
nation body will meet to resume
discussions.
Under the Baruch plan the
United States would stop producing
atomic bombs, destroy its stockpile
Of bombs and turn its atomic secrets
over to an international atomic de-
velopment authority if the world
would join in setting up safeguards
to make sure that the lethal
weapon would never again be used
as an instrument of war.
Mr.. Baruch insisted, however, that
these steps would be taken only
after the Ave major powers on the
Security Council agreed to give up
their veto rights on matters related
to atomic energy and provided for
suitable punishment of nations
which violated strict control regula-
tions.
Basis for Discussion.
British circles said Sir Alexander
Cadogan. British delegate, was ready
to accept the plan as a basis for
discussion, but he might propose
some additional safeguards.
These sources said, however, that
the Baruch report left unanswered
number of important questions
such as the relationship Of the
atomic development authority and
the Security Council
What Russia's reaction would be
still was undisclosed Andrei A.
Gromyko, Soviet delegate, remained
silent pending instructions from
Moscow.
A delegate, representing one of
the major powers, expressed belief
that at least four of the five per-
manent members of the Security
Council would be willing to sur
render their veto power on atomic
questions.
Russia Might Block Plan.
1t was generally believed, how
ever, that this would be the most
dificult proposal for Russia to &C
cept, in view of her previous in
sistence on broad veto powers. Rus
sian refusal to surrender veto rights
might block the entire plan.
Delegates to the Security Coun-
Gil planned to meet at 100 pm
Monday to try to dispose Of Poland s
charges that Franco Spain threat

term regime.
The informant declared that "once
again Britain has been forced
against its will to take decisive
action. These weeks of miSunder-
standing and failure to agree
among the contending factions
cannot go on indefinitely"
The Moslem League. the other ma
jor Indian party, has accepted the
ID ltiSll independence pAoPoooii,,
while making it clear that the
league still sought its ultimate goal
of a separate Moslem state Paki-
STAN.
Letters explaining the position of
the cabinet mission, which came
here to arrange for independence,
will be sent today to leaders of the
Congress party and Moslem League,
the informant said
Details of the new plan were not

Lord Wavell might either attempt
the formation of a new government
or call on an outstanding member
of the Congress party to name Hindu
members Of cabinet to serve with
Moslems nominated by the head Of
the Moslem League, Mahomed Ali
Jinnah.
