Thurman Arnold Argues AQainsf Mason Bill al Hearing Today

WASHINGTON. May 5-lR-- Legislation designed to clarify the status of newspapers and press services under the antitrust laNs was opposted by Thurman Arnold today as class legislation which in effect endows them with the powers of private government,
 Arnold, former head of Justice Departments antitrust division, testified before the House Judi ciary subcommittee considering a bill by Rep. Mason (R-IlD which grew out of the Supreme Court de- cision enjoining Associated Press members from considering coni- petitive factors in acting on mem bership applications.
 Testifying as a representative of the American Civil Liberties un- ion, Arnold said:
 No excuse can te given for exempting the powerful news papers who as members are band- ed together in the Associated Press from the operation of laws whic-a apply to ordinary business
 From the record in the case, Ar mold said, Tt is clear that no first class newspaper, except per haps in the most unusual circum- stances, can have an even chance with its competitors or, for that matter, chance of survival, with out the services of the Associated Press" He added:
 The Associated Press is beyond question the greatest news gather ing agency in the world, and With cut it's franchise no newspaper has an even competitive chance. The United Press is the most impor- tant supplementary service"

China Needs Reform
.(DY Barnet Never,

The blunt statement issued by Lieut.. Gen. Albert C. Wedemeyer on the even of his departure from China will some as a severe shock to the Nanking government. But whether it will achieve its intend ed purpose of bringing about a wholesale housekeeping in China is far from certain. The news that President Truman was sending a new mission to China has been greeted with enthusiasm by min ions to the Chiang regime.
 They were convinced that it foreshadowed new flood of American dollars in China. The line of reasoning behind this belief was that since the United States is now pursuing an anti-Communist foreign policy and since the Man.

king government is fighting the Chinese Communists, this country had no choice but to help Marking.
 So Chinese stocks went up and the Chinese dollar, a very sick currency, indeed, began to show signs of improvement.
 To say the least, Wedemeyer's statement is a grievous disappoint- ment to the Nanking overlords.
 Nowhere in it does he hold out any conditional or unconditional promise of American aid. On the contrary, his contention is that de- spite years of war and revolution, China still possesses most of the physical resources needed for her own rehabilitation"
 China's recovery, he added, awaits inspirational leadership and moral and spiritual resurgence

While at time he might have been willing to enter, he does not want colaborate for he feels that the prestige of the government has sunk low that collaboration would be political suicide
 Sophoulis wants immediate change, for the govern ment has tried only violence in solution of the Com munis problem violence that is driving the Greek peo pie into the arms of the Communists.
 American influence in Greece force formation of another government-which could give real amnesty to the guerras those in jail and those exed for po litical That would virtually eliminate the Com munis threat but it cannot be done under the present regime which no one trusts.
 is significant that Sophoulis does not want the ad vice of United States Ambassador Lincoln MacVeigh in formation of government. Up to now the United States has fully supported the present regime and the Greeks know that But by inference Sophouis declared he would be willing to seek the aid of Dwight Grswold chief of the American aid mission in formation of unified Greek government.
 Perhaps the present government will realize that its influence is waning and be willing to step down. but if is not the United States should make its dspeasure known, for continued support of an unpopular regime can lead only to the animosity of the Greek people,
 When the Greeks voted this government into power they voting against Communism Now they have found and not too late that this way is better than the other If truly liberal government be achieved soon the basic problem will be solved and if the United States will help in this the Truman doctrine will have fully served its purpose.

Trading Freedom For Slavery

II
 (The Wyoming Eagle)
 ONE OF THE MOST disconcertng developments of this decade has been the increasing willingness of American freemen to swap their brthrght of liberty for the regimented fe-to exchange free enterprise for government enterprise.
 Public ownership of railroads, local public service companies, and telegraph and telephone lines may sound attractive, but the fact is the employee of gov corporation has less influence than has the pOyee of private corporation.
 Delegated power centralized power, can be and uSu ally yrannica in local government as well as in na tional government. The people can give but having given they find it difficult to take away.
 George V. Ormsby, American correspondent assigned to London recently wrote that naturalization of indus try is not proving the utopia the workers imagined it would be, but merely changing from private boss to state boss He cites instance where an exdrector o a natonazed coal mine met one of his former workers and asked him how he liked the new regime Mot so good" said the miner. "I thought was going to be where you were, but I've only got boss'
 good many million people must feel similar diS- usonment with the superstae It is thing to work for private boss, and very different thing to work for state boss The private boss can be controlled by law and public opinion He be forced to arbitrate with his employees and give them higher wages and better working conditions and other benefits to which they may be entitled The and the unions a ways ready to bounce on him if he steps out of line.
 The state boss, the other hand is bird of another feather When government becomes maSS-employer, it determines its employment policies. The right strike must be directly indirectly abrogated The decisions of the government must be final, and the worker who feels he is unjusy treated has redress The heads of government invariably become more and sensitive to criticism, and move in way other to silence it Every phase of the national life is tangled in red-tape and the freedom of the individual is inevitably limited It is notable fact that Eng land seriously considering what amounts in prin cpe to labor draft to force reluctant workers to cept employment in the coal mines.
 The super-states can have only one end-and that is total dictatorship Most of Europe is miserable r today private state boss is to risk trading freedom for slavery.
 Ain't funny? We ship millions of tons of grain, meat clothing coal and steel to needy Europe and pat ourselves the back for being good fellows But when British Foreign Secretary Bevn suggested that dig few billions in gold out of the pit at Fort Knox and share with needy friends, most of almost went into convulsions The question is, do and Mr. Bevn have a correct sense of values?

That leadership, the Wedemeyer statement indicates, is lamentably lacking in China. The Chinese Communists appear to be far more interested in imposing their ideol- ogy by force than in the well-being of their country. On the other hand, many of those who occupy positions of responsibility in the central government and even more in the provinces and municipali- ties are only too often greedy, cor rupt and incompetent individuals.
 As a parting shot, Wedemeyer had this to say:
 ITO regain and maintain the confidence of the people, the cen tral government will have to put into effect immediately drastic and far-reaching political and eco- homie reforms. Promises will no longer suffice. Performance is ab- solutely necessary. Ii should be ac- cepted that military force in itself will not eliminate Communism"
 The very circumstance that General Wedemeyer took the trou- ble to speak so bluntly of conditions he found in China shows the enor- nous interest and the grave con- cern we have in what is happen ing in that country.
 There is no possible way in which the United States can safely wash its hands of China. We can no more afford to do it there than we can afford to do it in Greece. Tn both cases, however, reform must come from within before it can be fostered from without. In the absence of such internal re- form our aid may merely mean throwing good money after bad
 Such plain speaking as General Wedemeyer permitted himself in discussing his findings in China our statesmen and representatives have hitherto avoided in the case of Greece.
 Yet by curious coincidence, so many of the things that Wede- meyer said about the present sit- uation of China and particularly about the present government of China apply equally we'll to the situation in Greece and the gov- ernments that have ruled Greece during recent years.
 Since the Truman doctrine was first proclaimed last March, very little has been done by the Greek authorities to meet the basic needs of the situation confronting their harrassed and war-torn land. The effort to restore order has failed. Corrupt, incompetent, greedy and reactionary individuals have con- tinued to sit in the saddle and Greece's economic situation has gone from bad to worse.
 To be sure, by no means all of Greece's trouble is internal. A good deal of it is due to outside | pressures, whose ill-concealed purpose is to saddle Greece with a regime similar to the Soviet stooge governments that rule the lands to the north. But the threat from without might ease up con- siderably if a broad-gauged and enlightened government were set up in Greece. For that reason our
