ION u. n. Assurance Of
Peace, Delegate Says
BY the Assoeiotsd Press

LAKE SUCCESS, N. Y, Jan. 81
The United Nations must assure the
world that it can maintain peace
before a single gun is scrapped un-
der proposed 55-nation arms re-
duction program. a Security Council
delegate said today. a.
This delegate, who refused to per-
init use of his name, said the first
step toward such security would
have to be the setting up of an
international military force by the
U. N.
He added that he would demand
that the Council ask a report from
the Military staff Committee, which
has been working on the global force
for nearly a year without apparent
progress.
This development came as the
Security Council was called into
session this afternoon to consider
taking up Great Britain's mine-lay-
ing complaint against Albania.
Forty-four sailors were killed last
October % when two British de-
stroyers struck mines of the Ale
banian coast. -
The case has been pending more
than a week awaiting the arrival
of an Albanian representative, but
U. N. said it still had no word that
an envoy actually had left Albania
en- route to New York.
Dissatisfaction over the progress
of the Military Committee has been
apparent in U. N. circles for some
time but the demand for . report
would be the first evidence Of direct
pressure on the group.
The Military Committee includes
representatives of Russia, the
United States, Great Britain, France
and China. 1t began sessions last
March and its latest communique
disclosed that it still was studying
the principles" surrounding the es-
tablishment of global forces.
1t was learned that the committee
has not at any time approached the
stage of discussing the actual
strength of the forces, the contribu-
tions OF any one country, or who
would command the units.

u. 5. and Reds Reach
Some Agreement on
Small States. Role
BY the Associated Press

| LONDON, Jan. 31.-Some agree.
ment between Soviet and American
diplomats on the, issue of small
power participation in framing tht
German peace treaty was indicated
today.
| Robert Murphy of the United
States, asked by a reporter at tht
four-power deputy foreign ministers
conference how much he believed
lesser powers should take part ir
writing the peace, said he Warlteo
constant consultation by the small
er nations" with all the deputies

This suggested that Mr.. Murphy
did not favor full participation BY
ally belligerents at all stages such as
the smaller nations, led by Britain's
dominions, have demanded.
+ Wants Testimony" Taken.
Soviet Deputy Feodor T. Gousev
who had opposed the demand from
the start, said he wanted the COM
mittees to take the testimony" oil
smaller nations.
Diplomatic circles speculated that
Britain and France, too, might tacit-
ly approve the Russian stand.
The development came as the
State Department In Washington, in
consultation with the American del
egation here, drafted a formal pro-
posal on treaty-making procedure.
Disagreement persisted over the
right of one Austrian delegate to
present his views before the deputies
Austrian section, but another -
Foreign Minister Karl Gruber-ap-
peared before that section agar,
today.
British sources said Mr.. Gruber,
questioned by MIR. Gousev about
"Austria's responsibility" for fighting
alongside Germany. replied: Aus
tria was forcibly annexed and it was
Austrian citizens, not an Austrian
government, who took part in the
war and most of these were forced
to do so. Most Austrisns were op-
posed to Hitler, and more than TO-
600 were sent to concentration
camps. 49, =.
Reds Step Up Propaganda.
The Moscow radio stepped up its
propaganda against Western propo-
sails for reorganization of Germany
into a federation OF small states.
In the sharpest of a series of COM
mentaries this week on the London
deputies sessions, the Soviet radio
pushed Russian plan for economic
and political unity" of Germany and
charged that the United States and
Britain were seeking permanent
Anglo American guidance in Ger
man political life"
Meanwhile, the deputies them
selves were embroiled in an argu-
ment over Yugoslav charges that an
Austrian delegate appearing before
the Council to oppose Yugoslay
claims for parts of Austrian Carin-
thia should be banned on the ground
he had "Nazi connections"

Steel Official Quotes
Scripture in Opposing
Union for Foremen
By J. A. OLeory

An official of Jones e. Laughlin
Steel Corp. turned to the Bible
today to support his claim be-
fore the Senate Labor Commit
tee that employers should not be
compelled to recognize unions
of foremen and supervisors.
H. Parker Sharp, general counsel
for the company, which is the fourth
largest steel producer, filed a brief
in which he asserted:
The experiences which the corpo-
ration has had in its coal mines
since the unionization Of its super
visors amply prove the correctness
of the Biblical statement that No
man can serve two masters 1t is
impossible for the supervisors to re-
main loyal to the management
group and at the same time please
the miners with whom they are
af1liated."
Backing, Restriction.
He was supporting one section of
the -Taft-Smith bill, which
would restrict the organization of
supervisors in industrial plants.
The question of whether foremen
and supervisors are employees within
the meaning Of the Wagner Act is
now before the Supreme Court for
decision.
Mr.. Sharp told the Senate com.
mittee that when the issue was be-
ing argued before that court several
weeks ago, in q case involving the
Packard Motor Co. counsel for the
National Labor Relations Boards
contention was carried to a logical
conclusion it would mean that ''the
vice presidents of the Packard Co.
could be included in an appropriate
unit" for bargaining.
Serious Objections Cited.
Mr.. Sharp told the committee it
Is not his purpose to indicate any
opposition to unions for production
and maintenance workers.
What I do wish to say most en-
phatically is that in my judgment
supervisory employees are manage
ment," he continued, "and there are
such serious practical, as well. rs
moral, objections to the representa-
ton of management by unions that
only q person desiring to change the
American way Of doing business
would promote such revolutionary
undertaking."
The committee also is scheduled
to hear testimony on the same is

.EisIer Contempt Trial
Is Slated tuesday

Gerhard Eisler, who has been
described as leading Communist,
| is scheduled to be tried In District
Court next Tuesday before Justice
Alexander Holtzof on a charge OF
contempt Of Congress for refusing
to be sworn in to testify before the
House Committee on Un-Amercian
Activities.
There was a probability Eisler's
trial might get under way a day late
because of a murder trial before
Justice Holtzof, which might not
end until Tuesday.
Eisler's case was left open to trial
when Justice Holtzof yesterday
overruled defense motion to dis
miss the contempt indictment against
the defendant. The indictment was
returned in February.
Among contentious of the defense
was one that Eisler had appeared
before the Committee as required.
Justice Holtzof, however, in over
ruling the motion for dismissal OF
the indictment, commented, that, In
his opinion, refusal to be sworn is
equivalent to refusal to attend.
Another defense argument was
that, in line with the Geneva con-
vention and subsequent agreement,
Eisler technically is in the category
of prisoner of war and should not
be required to answer any questions
except those an enemy soldier would
be required to answer. These would
include giving name, rank and serial
number.
The Government, through Assist
ant United States Attorney William
Hitz, contended, in reply, that even a
prisoner of war would not be i'm
mune from giving information, SO
long as it does not relate to his
"army" or country
Still pending against Eisler is an
indictment returned in April accus-
ing him of making false statements
when he sought an alien departure
permit in 1945 from the State De-
partment.
