Victim in Plane Crash
Still Unidentified
Speeiol Dispoteh 10 The S:or

LURAY, Va, June 2O.-Page
County Sheriff j. A. Brubaker said
this morning that the body of the
pilot of the single-seater plane which
crashed on Racoon Head Mountain
about 16 miles from here, yesterday
was still unidentified.
In Washington, the Civil Aero
nautics Administration said that the
plane, which bore the serial number
NC 25520, was owned by the Reeds
burg Foods Corp. Reedsburg, Wis,
but that no further information was
known yet.
The body, burned beyond recogni-
ton, was brought from the desolate
mountain area to the Bradley
funeral home here. Apparently
there was no other occupant of the
plane, according to Mr.. Brubaker.-
The plane, CAA officials said, was
a BIT 13 surplus Army trainer.
Marvin Cubbage, who was working
on another mountain peak, heard
the crash, and was first to arrive at
the scene. He said the weather was
foggy and the pilot apparently did
not know where he was going.

Maxi former japanese army
major, tried to commit hara-
kiri today on the steps of the

The 68-year-old Maxi, who

wrote two scrolls explaining
that he was overcome by the
woes besetting the Emperor and
by the Grimes of the war
criminals"
The suicide attempt was
planned to atone for Maki's own
"sins" and as a prayer "for the
divine protection of Japan" but
in falling against the hara-kiri

Belgrade Police ChieI
Tesfifies He Obtained
Forced Mine Labor
BY the Associated Press

BELGRADE, Yugoslavia, June
20.-Dragi Jovanovic, police prefect
for Belgrade during the occupa-
ton and a co-defendant with Gen.
Draja Mihailovich, testified in the
treason trial today that he OBJ
tanned forced labor for Yugoslayia s
copper mines.
The man who was accused of
carrying out many repressive meas
ures during the German stay offered
a not guilty plea and asserted that
Il wanted to serve my people who
were under occupation"
Was it conscious collaboration"
the court president asked.
mo, I can't say that" Jovanovic
replied, Il was mediator between
Belgrade and the occupier."
He said his action in obtaining
mine labor was favor to our peo-
pie" because it prevented their being
sent to Germany for forced labor
He admitted meeting a representa-
tive OF the Gestapo before the war
Jovanovic was a member of the
puppet government of Milan Medic
who committed suicide. He was the
first of group of accused Quislings
brought to trial with Gen. Mihail-
ovich, his Chetnik commanders and
members of the Yugoslav govern
ment in exile. The government of
Marshal Tito, recently returned
from Moscow conferences, sought to
show a connection among the three
groups.
Jovanovic testified he had per-
sonal contact in 1912 with Gen
Mihailovich, former King Peters
War Minister and commander in
chief, and supplied his Chetnik
units with ammunition, clothing
and money. He said his first con-
tact with the Chetniks was in 1941
Marshal Tito's court accused Gen
Mihailovich and the Chetniks with
collaborating with German and Ital-
ian occupation forces and with the
Medic regime and with fighting the
Partisan forces which Marshal Tito
himself commanded.
why did you connect yourself
with the Mihailovich organization?'
Jovanovic was asked.
A. Because I understood they
were doing national work of uniting
the country and liberating our coun-
try.
@. But why did you link yourself
to them?

side is trying to authorize the draft
ing of 18-year-olds as last resort,
while the House group wants to
exempt 18-year-olds and start the
draft at 10.
Representative Andrews, who IA
vors the Senate move to start the
draft at ID, is on the Pacific Ocean,
en- route to the Bikini ATOM bomb
test. .....
Senator Gurney, Republican, of
South Dakota, who is leading the
Senate fight to retain the 18-age
limit, admitted he wired Mr.. An
drews to ascertain his position on a
Senate compromise offer to permit
the induction of 18-year-olds as a
last resort after volunteer recruiting
and higher age groups have failed to
meet War Department requirements
Mr.. Andrews wired his approval, and
his vote would have put the plan
over this morning.
Chairman Thomas announced,
however, that when another poll
was taken among the House con-
ferees this morning to see how they
stood on the 18-year-old issue, 1t
resulted in a three-to-three tie.
Andrews Proxy Not Used.
Senator Thomas explained that
the Andrews proxy was not included
in this vote because the House men,
ber who held it took the position
he was released from the obligation
to use it by the second message OBJ
tained from Mr.. Andrews in the past
few days. Mr.. Andrews originally
had left instructions that his vote
be cast for the straight extension OF
the drafting of 18 and 19-year-olds
If his proxy had been cast for the
compromise this morning it would
have carried.
1t was reliably reported that In
the course of the heated discussion
over the proxy incident this morn
ing som criticism was aimed at the
War Department for forwarding the
new communication from Mr.. An
drews.
Chairman Thomas admitted that
one House conferee had discussed
the advisability of eliminating all
proxies, but did not make a formal
motion. Senator Thomas said he
would oppose any such move be-
cause proxies have already been
used in the negotiations when men,
bers have been busy on other legis-
lation.

lCharfer Committee
|AssaiIs Morgan for
Political Activities

The Montgomery County Char
ter Committee today criticized Jc
w. Morgan, county civil service
commissioner, for his political ac-
| tivities."
Declaring that in the past many
county employees have been forced
to "electioneer" during working
hours and to make political con-
tributions to the organization in
power because of fear for their
jobs, the committee asserted:
"The county is now engaged in q
political campaign in which heavy
expenditures are being incurred by
the political faction in control OF
the county government.
Call for Neutral Stand.
zone would think that the
county's civil service commissioner
should observe a neutral position
so that county employees could be
more certain Of fair treatment in
the event they should be asked by
political leaders to do political
campaigning or to make party con-
tributions and should refuse.
Instead, however, Mr.. Morgan
has accepted appointment as chair
man of the organization of precinct
4 OF the seventh election district for
the powerful Brooke Lee machine
and has been working in that
capacity in recent days"
Describing the charter groups
criticism as without merit" Mr.
Morgan emphasized that under the
regulations made by him as civil
service commissioner, mo interfer-
ence of any person under the merit
system can be had because of politi-
cal activities"
He pointed out that any county
employe covered by the merit sys-
tenn may engage in political activ-
tiles for the Democratic, Republican
or Charter party" provided they
do not use the time or facilities
of the county government.
During my own and I might cal
my free time, when I am not en-
ployed in my official duties" Mr.
Morgan said, II reserve the right
to engage in any political activities
that seem best for me and will con.
tinue to do so.
II consider it the duty and the
responsibility of every citizen oi
Montgomery County to take ar
active part in politics and to ad-
vance the cause of that party thai
to his mind will better promote the
welfare of the county and his owr
