Labor Leader Charges
BY The Associated Press

e NEW YORK, June 14.-Joseph
Curran, president of the CIO Ma
tional Maritime Union, said to-
night he and his delegation had
been invited out" of a confer
ence with shipowners and pre-
dicted his union would stop work
at midnight tomorrow. E.
Mr.. Curran termed the threatened
work stoppage lockout"
The NMU head told reporters
at headquarters Of the American
Merchant Marine Institute, where
conference had ended between
the NMU and the employers:
1--WE were invited out of the
meeting by the operators and ship
owners. They refused to discuss
any proposals made by the union.
They rejected all proposals-even
proposals to carry out what Is al
ready a part of an agreement--to
discuss wages in wage review.
"As the matter stands now, as of
June Is there is no contract"
Strike Preparations Begun.
Mr.. Curran's statement came
several hours after the Marine
Beneficial Association in
dicated it would not participate in
the threatened walkout of 100000
maritime workers tomorrow mid
night, but the NMU and three other
unions already had begun strike
Involved in the dispute are five
CIO maritime unions, but the engi-
neers notified the Labor Depart
ment today it would not strike inn
mediately because Of a new agree
ment with West Coast shippers.
Mr.. Curran told newsmen the
operators have refused consistently
in five consecutive meetings to nego-
tiate anything. They even have
said that benefits now existing
should be removed at a time when
their profits are at peak. The union
is available to negotiate at all times
the operators are prepared
to negotiate in good faith.

COP. Prepares Reply
In Event Of Tax Veto
BY the Associated Press

Republicans are oiling their guns
for a counterblast at President Tru-
man on the economy issue if he We
toes the tax reduction bill, as many
expect.
The White House announced that
Mr.. Truman will act tomorrow and
will send a message to Congress
whether he vetoes the bill or signs it.
The expectation of a veto is SO
strong in Congress that Republicans
already are preparing to fire back at
Mr. Truman in controversy they
believe will become major issue of
the 1948 presidential campaign.
Chairman Taft of the Senate Re-
publican Policy Committee told re-
porter yesterday the Republicans
are prepared to answer veto with
the assertion that the President
wants no tax reduction because he
is unwilling to have Federal ex-
penditures cut.
The President already has DEM
onstrated that he is against economy
in Government, Senator Taft de-
clared. He has resisted all efforts
to reduce his swollen budget and
has sabotaged, through the Govern
ment departments, every attempt of
Congress to effect economies.
Representative Grant, Republican
of Indiana, predicted the President
will sign the bill, saying a veto
would in effect be a usurpation of
the power Of Congress to levy taxes.
The bill would reduce income
taxes by amounts ranging from 80
to 10.5 per cent starting July l. The
saving to taxpayers over a full year
would be about $4,000 900, 900.

President Truman denounced
the Conlmunist-controlled gov
ernments of Hungary, Romania
and Bulgaria for oppression" of
their people as he completed for
NAL American action yesterday
for establishment of peace
with those countries and Italy.
His sharp statement on the Bal
kans contrasted with one extending
encouragement to the non-Com-
munist government of Italy whose
people, he said, "can look with hope
and confidence" to a new era"
Mr.. Truman issued the two state
ments after signing the instruments
of ratification of the Balkan and
italian peace treaties approved by
the Senate several days ago.
Also Ratified by Britain.
The treaties also have been rati-
fed by Great Britain, leaving Russia
and France the only ones of the
necessary Big Four signatories to
act. G n
Italians have been critical of
many of their treaty terms which
they consider too harsh. The Presi-
dents statement appeared to hold
the promise that the United States
would work with them to obtain
some changes through the United
Nations.
In his statement on the Balkan
treaties, Mr.. Truman said:
"At the time of the ratification of
the treaties establishing peace with
Hungary, Rumania and Bulgaria, ]
feel that I must publicly express re-
gret that the governments of these
countries not only have disregarded
the will Of the majority of the
people, but have resorted to meas
ures of oppression against them.

countries from the Nazi yoke and
the commitments undertaken by
the three Allies at Yalta, / had
hoped that governments truly rep
resentative of the people would be

LONDON, Sunday, June 15.-The
Moscow radio said today that Soviet
Foreign Minister Molotov had de-
MED charge attributed to British
Ambassador Sir Maurice Drummond
Peterson that Russia had engineered
the coup d'etat in Hungary.
The Moscow broadcast quoted a
communique of the information bu-
reau of the Soviet Foreign Ministry
stating the change ofrgovernment in
Hungary was made in a formal con-
stitutional way by the parliament
and president"
The communique said Mr.. Molo-
toy asserted that secret methods
attributed by the ambassador to
Soviet authorities in Hungary are
perhaps peculiar to British. organs,
but they are completely alien to
Soviet organs"
The communique was further
quoted:
Accusations put forward by the
British government against Soviet
organs in Hungary are void Of any
foundation whatever. 4

Fired Veterans Lose
u. ). Retirement Paw
Because ofWarC Credit
Ex-GIs Would Have Met
Requirement for Refund
Without War Seniority
By Joseph YOUNG

Thousands of war veterans
now losing their Government
jobs are being denied the right
to withdraw their retirement
fund contributions under regu-
lations which Civil Service Com
mission officials acknowledge to
be unfair.
Commission officials report they
are receiving many complaints from
veterans who urgently need the
money to tide them over until they
find new employment.
These complaints are coming from
men who have less than five years
of Federal service to their credit.
Presumably they should be entitled
to refunds under the law which pro-
vides that laid-off Government
workers with less than five years of
service have the right to withdraw
their retirement contributions.
War Service Is Counted.
But the Government has ruled
that, for retirement purposes. the
years spent in the armed forces
counts as time spent IN the Federal
service.
This results in pushing thousands
of veterans over the 5-year mark.
For example, a man who worked in
the Government for only three
years, and served for three
years in the Army, Navy or Marines,
would be credited with six years of
Federal service, and therefore would
be ineligible to withdraw his retire.
ment payments.
Commission officials say the pro-
visions originally was adopted to aid
the war veteran in getting a full
annuity when he reaches the re-
tirement age. But the provision has
backfired in the cases of the many
former seryicemen who otherwise
would be eligible to collect the
money they have put into the fund.
Each of these men would be en-
titled to at least several hundred
