 WASHINGTON - Most encour- aging sign on th6 atomic-energy horizon is what the Russians are now doing in Saxony.
 Low-grade uranium deposits are found in this Southern German state, and the Russians have been working feverishly to mine them They have been using a great deal of labor, and going to great lengths to scrape up this uran- ium, which is so low grade that in Canada it would be ignored. The fact that the Russians are are taking all this trouble over such poor quality uranium in Ger many obviously means only one thing: They don't have any worth- while uranium of their own in Russia.

WASHINGON, Aug. 2-lR- Louis Budnez, repented Commun- ist, told Senators today that the Communist party gets "a very big financial. take" from Hollywood.
 The former managing editor of the Communist Daily Worker, who quit the Communist party and now is a Fordham University profess or, testified in Senate Expendi- ture subcommittee inquiry into Communist infiltrations into the government
 He described the Communist par ty of the United States as "a fifth column of Soviet Russia"
 He named the late Jacob Golos 'as head of highly secret Com munist party control commission in this country-an agency he said was used to discipline party mem- bers and keep them in line.
 GoloS was the chief contact with the party for Miss Elizabeth Bent ley, admitted one-time Soviet spy, who has testified that she got military secrets from government officials and workers which were channeled to Moscow.
 Budenz said that the control commission and the party's fi- nance committee were highly secret organizations, even witpin the par ty.
 Money From Hollywood
 Chairman Ferguson tR-Mich) asked how the Communists got money to finance their operations
 Budenz said that dues accounted for some funds, gifts from veal thy persons for others, adding:
 There was a very big take from Hollywood"
 The slight. balding former Com munist editor said that Golos, Clarence Derba and sometimes Biddleman, were mem- bers of the control commission.
 He said this commission had complete information on lCommun- ist party members including who they associated and talked with, who they borrowed money from and what their relations were with their families. This they used to "blackmail' any members who gave

(By The Associated Press

Noy 4AiC RooO(AotCa x1Cooy
 Western diplomats in Moscow have asked for an interview with Prime Minister Stalin and may see him shortly, qualified sources said today.
 Three London newspapers re- ported Stalin had agreed to talk tonight with the American, Brit ish and French envoys over the East-West crisis that includes blockaded Berlin.
 There were hints in the German Capital. the Russians were ready to talk business.
 MOSCOW Moscow reported the Western diplomats and Russians already have made progress and definitely contributed toward cas- ing the tense International situa- tion." The Ambassadors were standing by for a call from the Krcmlin and keeping their mouths shut. W
 Purposes of the Moscow talks were reported to be the easing of the Russian blockade of Berlin and establishing basis for future Fcsir-R Power talk v gaod asl- thority in Moscow said there ap- pears to the a good chance both objectives will be worked out.
 The Berlin blockade started in June. The Russians barred access through their surrounding zone by railway, road and canal. The Western Powers have been flying in enough food for their 10000 or more Berlin Germans, but coal has become increasingly short.
 BERLIN Russian newspapers in Berlin said the squeeze will con- tinue unless the anti-Communist elected city government yields to the minority Communist demand that accounts held in banks in the Russian sector by Western Ber- liners may never be released ex- cept at the pleasure of the Econ- omic Commission of the Soviet Zone.

By BILL ALEXANDER

T Asst WEEK we reported on
the M u u al Broadcasting
Systems suppression of four hard
hitting scripts exposing lynching
and other un-American violations
of civil rights and calling for leg
islation to outlaw these atrocities.
Mutual censored the scripts be-
cause it would rather ignore vio-
lations of the Bill of Rights than
the jim crow Southern Bourbons
and the acknowledgements
ing Wall Street financiers who
now rule the Democratic Party.
But radio listeners are bound
to ask: Why has radio so rarely
stood up for human rights? Is
the reason always fear?
THE ANSWER to the second
question is: No-not this kind of
fear, at any rate.
Radio almost always ignores the
struggle for human freedom not
because of pressure, but because
of profits.
The status quo is profitable to
Big Radio, just as it is to all Big
Business, and Big Radio is afraid
that the people, if told the truth,
might ask for themselves a better
share of our country's bounty.
q -
FOR THIS REASON Big Radio
fights the people and all too fire.
quently sides with reaction and
even fascism.
This story has never before
been told, but now at last book
has been published which exposes
the sordid structure of American
radio. The book is '"The Ameri-
can Communications Conspiracy"

Fight whipping
in public school

The Civil Rights Congress of
Illinois announced this week that
it will defend Mr.. and Mrs. Dam
iel Jensen of Griffiths, Indiana,
who are now out on bail pend
ing their trial on criminal charges
based on their refusal to permit
their son, Albert to attend public
school as long as Indiana teachers
are authorized to whip children.
Albert, during his absence from
school, is receiving instructions
at home from his mother.
Leonard Karlin, attorney for
the CRC, who is handling the
Jensen case, stated, 81 do not be-
lieve that the law justifies the
right of public school officials to
inflict corporate punishment on
children against the wishes of the
parents. This child is being de-
prived of his right to attend
school without fear of whippings."

CAPITAL PUNISHMENT ON
DECLINE, SURVEY IN N. u.
LAW JOURNAL INDICATES

Since the beginning of the
recent war, the trend has been
toward increased abolition of
capital punishment in most ma
tons of the world, a survey in
the current issue of the North
western University Journal of
Criminal Law and Criminolo-
gy indicates.
In an article, "Changes in
Capital Punishment Policy
Since 1885," Lee Emerson
Deets, member of the advis-
DRY board of the American
League to Abolish Capital Pun
ishment, writes: New Zea-
land abolished the death pen
atty in 1941, and Rumania in
1916, now in Russia. Brazil lib
eralized it's capital punishment
law in 1916 by limiting the
death penalty to military Of
lenses in time of war. Switzer-
land, in 1912, made a consti-
tutional change which extends
abolition of capital punish
ment to all cantons. The death
penalty is in effect for mill
tary offenses extremely dan
gerous to the state, but in Swiss
democracy the distinction be-
tween civil and military is
meaningful."
