By fhe Assoeiotsd Press

CHARLESTON, w. Va, April H.
The international Executive Board
of the CIO United Gas, Coke &
Chemical Workers of America an
nolnced today it would stand on the
principle that Communists as such
have no place among the leadership,
no matter how minor, OF this union. :
Z The policy on Communism was
adopted by the I5-member board as
lone of the last official acts Of a two
day meeting presided over by Martin
Wagner of Washington. president.
VIII Not Have witch Hunt"
To-day, the Nation is aroused at
the threat to our Government and
our domestic freedoms from Com
munisna," the statement OF policy
said.
"This union does not propose to
engage in any witch hunt, but 1t
owes duty to its members, its Gov
ernment and the American people
to make sure that we are a force for
strengthening Democracy and ex-
tending its benefits and privileges
to all who strive for freedom and
security.
"This means that the United Gas,
Coke g. Chemical Workers of Amer
lea cannot and must not be used as
an instrument and tool OF those who
would destroy our Government and
our democracy
Subversion viii Not Be Tolerated.
ANY such move which is SUBJ
yersive and designed to destroy our
American Democracy and our Amer
lean freedoms must not be tolerated.
Peaceful and lawful changes can
and should be made through a
strong and vigorous Democratic cit
izenry. Violent overthrow of our
Government must be resisted at all
costs.
I'VE call on all members to use
their strength and power to resist
and repel such intrusion. For this
reason, members must exercise ex-
treme care in selecting groups and
organizations for moral and f1nan-
cial support.
"We must guard against aligning
ourselves with so-called front or
ganizations by examining carefully
the objectives, the membership and
the leadership of all groups who seek
our assistance"

British Deny Gen. Patton's Charges

NEW YORK, (P)-Strategy pro- posed by the late Gen. George s. Patton, Jr., and subsequently, al- tered by Jhe Allied high command over his protests "would not have shortened the war but would have made it more difficult to win," the wartime chief of staff to field marshal Viscount Mont gomery said yesterday.
 The change in battle plan which called for an all-out thrust of his Third Army armored columns across the Rhine into Germany, Patton said, was in his opinion "the momentous error of the war"
 Writing in his war journal, pub lished in part yesterday by the Saturday Evening Post, Patton declared his belief that the change in strategy was supplemented by Montgomery, resulting in length. ening the war and the loss Of thousands of additional lives.
 War office spokesman in Lon don delined comment on Patton's charges but in Capetown, South Africa, Montgomery's form r chief of staff, Gen. Sir Francis w. de Guingand, disputed the color ful Americ can commanders claims.
 II think that if Patton had been allowed to go rushing into Ger many on the axis proposed by him, a very awkward situation would have developed despite pos sible initial successes" de Guin- gand commented.
 'Such a move, leaving very vul- nerable Hanks, would not nave shortened the war but would nave made it more difficult to win"

Industry Pied ges 35,OOO,OOO Bushels To Aid Europe

WASHINGTON, (P)-The citi- zens food committee yesterday es- timated that it is 35 per cent along the way toward President Tru- mans goal of saving l00,O0O,OOO bushels of grain for the relief of winter distress in Europe.
 Industry pledges will account for some 35,O00,000 bushels in the next 90 days, a committee official said, but most of the rest must come from public self-denial and in farm savings of grain fed to livestock.
 In the hope of tapping another industry source, committee chair man Charles Luckman will meet shortly with meat packing repre- sentatives, the official disclosed.
 Meanwhile the White House and legislators of both parties made plans for the Nov. l7 special session of Congress which MT. Truman hopes will furnish about

Bartlett Attacks Hydaburg Indian Reservation

Continued from Page One) derstatement"
 The Delegate said the question of Indian reservations in the Southeastern Alaska region was of vast importance to the people and the final decision will have much to do with the economy of the region.
 The Alaska Native Brotherhood, representing the Indians of the re- zion, has gone on record as oppoS- ing reservations, Bartlett said.
 He continued:
 "Unhappily there remains a class of people motivated doubt less by the best intentions in the world who believe they and they alone are qualified to take the h. dians by the hand and lead them through the pitfalls of our modern life with the white people. ..
 50 far as l know there has never been previously in the whole history of the interior de- pertinent an attempt made to eff feet such a far reaching change in Alaska's status without at least in forming the Alaska representative in Congress of what was contem- plated.
 'Emphatically I wish to suggest tha; no proclamation creating ny reservation at all in the Territory be signed until the interested peo- pie there of both races have aH opportunity to make their views known"

Patton Blamed
 Gen. Montgomery For War SlOw-Up

NEW YORK, (P)-Gen. George s. Patton, Jr., stormy wartime commander of the United States Third Army, vigorously criticized Britain's Field Marshal Montgom- cry and also directed barbs at top American officers in an abridge- ment of his war journal published yesterday.
 In pungent, crisp phrases, Pat ton declared his belief the war m Europe would have been shorten ed and thousands of lives saved but for "the tremendous error oi the war" which he blamed or Montgomery's influence wi h SHEAF, Gen. Dwight D. Eisen- hower's headquarters.
 Excerpts from the informal journal, written during the Third Army's campaigns, were publish ed posthumously yesterday in the Saturday Evening Post. They GOV cred only the fighting in France and Germany.
 Supporting views of some other officers and observers who have written of the Third Army's his toric dash across France as far as Verdun in August, l944, Patton asserted his forces would have pushed across the Rhine in 10 days had it not been for change in high command strategy ''imple- mented, in my opinion, by Gener- al Montgomery"
 "The twenty-ninth of August, Q944 was, in my opinion, one of the critical days in this war" Pat ton wrote. "It was evident at this time that there was no real threat against us as long as we did not allow ourselves to be stopped by imaginary enemies"
 He reported ordering attacks on Verdun and Commercy, then con- tinued:
 Everything seemed rosy, when suddenly it was reported to me that 140,000 gallons of gas we were to get that day had not ar rived. At first I thought it was a back-handed way of slowing up the Third Army. I later found that this was not the case, but that the delay was due to change of plan by the high command, implement ed, in my opinion, by General Montgomery.

Danes well-proven drama, "A Bill

the rural Maryland playhouse, the
piece essentially is romp for the
couple with members Of the regular
company giving rather unobtrusive
but generally competent support.
The role Of shell shocked Eng

gains his reason after 10 years is
suited to Mr.. Carradine's volatile

foil as the daughter who foresakes
her own happiness to stay by him

first husbands confinement.

tial role Is Ruth White's-the wife
who must decide between wifely
