Wallace Called Ally
OF Reds by Dr.. Walsh

Dr.. Edmund A. Walsh. S. J., one
of the leading Catholic critics OF
Soviet Russia, declared last night
the Communist empire builders
had gained an amazing ally" in
Henry A. Wallace and charged the
former Vice President with "encour-
aging opposition" to his Govern
ment's policies on his tour of Euro
pean capitals.
''Mr. Wallace is engaged in as
semb,lng sort Of Fourth Interna-
t:onal, ostensibly to prevent a third
world war, but substantially to con-
done the expansionist program of
Marxian communism. Father Walsh
charged.
The Catholic clergyman told an
audience in the Mayflower Hotel
that Soviet penetrations into West
ern Europe ''have added 270,000
square miles to the Communist en-
plre." He was tracing the pattern
of Soviet geopolitics in sixth of a
series Of public lectures growing out
OF the recent Nuremberg trial.
DR.. Walsh referred particularly to
Mr.. Wallace's London statement on
tine lack of understanding which
will lead to World War III. In Mr..
Wallace's familiar thesis, the George
town educator said. this means that
"the United States should yield
everything. demand nothing, pay the
bills, renounce the ridiculous idea OF
reciprocity in international relations
and humbly take the observers seat
at this most crucial hour in the
history Of Western civilization"
Father Walsh's next lecture in the
series will be given at $3.50 pm. Mon
day in the MayfloWer.

1000 workers are out, the first de-
fection in the ranks was reported.
A spokesman at union headquarters
admitted "two or three" repairmen
in the Silver Spring area were urg-
ing about so others to return to
work. A meeting was set for pm.
and union officials were to urge the
men to hold fast.
The Maryland workers, who also
serve Bethesda and Silver Spring,
are members of the Maryland Fed
Grafton of Telephone Workers, but
their strike efforts were co-ordi-
mated with those Of District union
members.
J. B. Morrison, vice president and
general manager Of the Chesapeake
g. Potomac Telephone Co., reported
that 12,105 long distance calls were
handled here yesterday. 697 more
than were put through Thursday.
Mr.. Morrison added that the COM
pany was standing by its offer to
arbitrate basic wages or renew pres
ent contracts for three months, six
months or longer, and then to re-
open negotiations in "the light of
the then existing conditions"
There were no immediate pros
poets of further company union bar
gaining meetings, which have failed
to reach any conclusions whatever.

.Af Venezuelan Assembly
BY the Assoeiated Press

CARACAS, Venezuela, April H.
United States Ambassador Frank P
Corrigan, who quit National As
sembly session yesterday when a
Communist deputy referred to Presi-
dent Truman, said that listening to
the 'monotonous party line intoned
by puppets" was boring enough, but
that attacks on the United States
President were too much to take =
Mr.. Corrigan walked out after the
deputy, Juan Fuenmayor, told the
Assembly that former President
Eleazar Lopez Contreras had gone
to Washington as an agent between
Venezuelan conspirators and YAM
kee imperialism in accordance with
the Truman plan."
During the session the Assembly
granted the government of Presi-
dent Romulo Betancourt extraordi-
nary powers to cope with the threat
of civil war. Under the new setup
the government is empowered to
suspend constitutional guarantees,
with the stipulation that it report
Immediately to the, Assembly when
civil rights are suspended.
The Assembly also gave President
Betancourt the authority to inn
prison persons on existence of ''rea-
sonable evidence" that they are
menacing the security Of the state.

Molotov thus far has declined to
give any figure on what the Rus
slams have taken In reparations.
Mr.. Molotov last night wtthstood
four separate efforts Of French For
eign Minister Bidault to get Russia
to agree Immediately to economic
integrattpn OF the Saar Valley with
France. Both Gen. Marshall land
British Foreign Secretary Bevin
have indorsed the proposal, under
which q commission would be set up
at once 10 make detailed plans for
the merger:
RuS6kS Believed on Spot.
The feellng among western diplo-
mats seemed to be that the Soviet
Union was on the spot in the
Saar issue. Their reasoning was
understood to be along this line:
Only by unexpectedly sudden
agreement on the issue can Russia
hope to recover lost prestige in
France. Yet any move in that di-
rection would risk conflict with
Soviet anti-dismemberment propa-
ganda in Germany.
In Withholding his decision on
the Saar proposal. Mr.. Molotov said
he wanted more time to think it
over. There was some speculation
that what he really wanted to think
over was the predicament In which
Soviet policy presently is caught
and that his consideration would
be directed toward figuring way
out with minimum loss of Rus
sian prestige from a political stand
point.

French Paper Assoils
'Moneuver' on Soor

PARIS, April IL (R.-The French
Communist newspaper L'Humanite
today charged that British-Ameri-
can consent to give France the
Saar was a maneuver "to accord
the secondary in order to refuse the
essential coal and repara-
tions.
The papers treatment of the
issue contrasted with that of the
rest Of the Paris press which head
ilined-"Molotov refuses France the
Saar" L'Humanite mentioned RUS
sian Foreign Minister Molotov's po-
sition in the 10th paragraph of It's
14-paragraph story on the Foreign
Ministers Conference.
The Communist organ said the
Saar plan fitted in with what it
termed "a long-range plan" of Sec
retary of State Marshall "to tor
pedo reparations, to put in ques-
ton Yalta and Potsdam, and to
favor certain reactionary plans in
France itself" 5s
TN reality, there has been a
maneuver to align France with
western policy and deprive her OF
support from the east" the paper
said.

white House today by flying to
Missouri to see his mother. Mrs,
Truman. .94, has been bedridden
since February Is, when she
broke her right hip In a fall. The
President has visited her twice
since the accident.
Chatting with reporters before he
took on at $40 am, Mr.. Truman
said that he was feeling fine. and.
that crises are just about as numer-
Gus as when he succeeded President
Roosevelt two years ago.
Accompanying the President on

would set up large army of secret

bound to promote the RECOMMENDATION
OF the independent thinking OF our
people. It would place unlimited
and underlined powers Of one person
- the Attorney General - to pro-
scribe organizations as .subversive'
without setting forth any standards
in this respect"
Concluding his letter, Mr.. Flaxer
wrote: The issues at stake are Of
vital consequence to the future
course of our democracy. Permit
me to close by urging you, on behalf
of every Government employe. to
revoke Order 1885 (the loyalty
order). Such an action on your part
would have enormous effect In
heartening the employees OF your
Government"
Mr.. Flaxer,s letter became known
after an American Civil Liberties
Union delegation called on Attorney
General Clark yesterday to ask that
freedom of expression and associa-
ton of Federal employees be pro-
tected In the loyalty check.
Justice Department ofilcials said
the Attorney General told the
visitors:
There will be no persecution.
The innocent will be protected"
The union delegation included
James Lawrence Fly. former CHAIR
man of the Federal Communications
Commission.
Mass Meeting Held.
Meanwhile, UPWA held mass
meeting last night in the Commerce
Department auditorium at which the
membership asked Congress not to
trim President Truman's 1948 budget
any further.
Eugene Cotton, CIO assistant gen.
eral counsel, lashed out at the ''un-
principled drive in Congress to de-
stroy essential public services"
Mr.. Flaxer cautions the right-wing
element Of the union, which so far
has been unsuccessful in getting
UPWA to take positive stand
against Communism, that they are
the "catspaws" OF "red-baiters" out
to destroy the union.
"Red-baiting within the CIO
should STOP" Mr. Flaxer declared.
1--WE have big job to do to gain
greater benefits for Government
workers, and we won't be able to do
1t If we have side skirmishes."
Mr. EJaYer rhurpad tfn ilr,inr,s
critics are raising the Communism
issue" against it and other CLIO
groups because 1--WE are fighting to
give the workers better break"
In what was interpreted as di-
rect warning to right-wing factions
in the union, Mr.. F1axer said: Il
hope this does not become subject
for further discussion at membership
meetings"
