He's Loyal at Trial
OF Suit for Film Job
BY the Associafed Press

LOS ANGELES, Dec. II. Lester
Cole, film writer who refused to tell
the House Un-American Activities
Committee whether he was Com
munist, says he is a loyal Amer
lean"
Mr.. Cole is suing Metro Goldwyn-
Mayer for reinstatement to his
s1,350-a-week writing job. The
studio suspended him in 1947. after
he and nine other Hollywood figures
baked at answering the committees
question.
A Federal Court jury yesterday
heard a record of Mr.. Coles testi-
mony before the committee in which
he asked Representative Thomas,
Republican, of New Jersey for per-
mission to read a prepared state
ment. This was refused. After
some pickering Mr.. Cole was excused
when he did not answer the question
on Communism.
Statement Read by Judge.
The prepared statement was read
yesterday by Federal Judge Leon r.
Yankwich. In part, it said:
II want to say at the outset that
I am loyal American who up
holds the Constitution, who does not
advocate force and violence and who
Is not an agent of foreign power.
After years of failure by James
Kern McGuinness executive pro-
ducer at MGM), Rupert Hughes and
others of your friendly witnesses to
disrupt the Screen Writers Guild,
and with it the industry, desperate
appeal was made to Martin Dies,
former chairman of the committee.
"Or maybe Martin Dies made the
appeal; at any rate, the investiga-
ton (of HollywoodD began"
Says New Tactic Was Tried.
Mr.. Cole said a new tactic was
employed" when the Dies Committee
failed to disrupt the Screen Writers
Guild.
Willie Bioff and George S.
Browne" the statement said, were
called into the fray. These two
men, Browne and Bioff, who ran the
International Alliance Of Theatrical
Stage Employees took on
the job of creating chaos in the in
dustry."
The statement continued that later
Browne and Bioff went to Jail for
the extortion of huge sums of money;

Labor Seen Adopting
|DictaforiaI Attitude
Toward Congress
Bv Frank r, Kent

Though the contribution OF the
labor bosses to the election result
was certainly no greater than that
of several other groups supporting
Mr.. Truman. 1t Is not surprising
that they are throwing their weight
around and adopting a dictatorial
tone toward the Congress and the
President.
For undoubtedly they are getting
every possible encouragement from
the administration politicians to do
exactly that. The astute Victor
Riesel reports that the big Boys"
of the labor world think they are
on the glory road" and that all
they have to do now Is 60 to Wash
ington and tell EN-" This frame
of mind is the natural result of
two things. One was the speed
and enthusiasm with which Dem
ocratic leaders, without regard to
realities, have accepted the labor
leader boast that labor did it." An
example OF this was given immedi-
ately after the election by Chair
man -McGrath of the National
Committee
Labor did it, joyfully echoed
Mr.. McGrath and his faithful
followers. With equal truth they
could have said. The farmers did
it" or "The Negroes did it" or 'The
veterans did it," They could have
said those things, but they didn't.
All the credit was given to labor,
apparently for the reason that the
labor bosses claimed it all. The
second cause for the strutting at
titude of the big Boys" is the
unanimity with which administra-
ton spokesmen are interpreting the
Truman victory as a mandate" to
give labor bosses anything and
everything they ask.
Mandate" Talk Ridiculous.
OF course, the popular Truman
plurality was so thin and the total
vote so astonishingly small that it
is ridiculous to talk of a mandate.
You do not get a mandate from
the American people when barely
half of the potential voters 60 to
the polls and of them the winner
gets a bare plurality. In this case
it is particularly absurd to talk
about the mandate" for labor
because it is too well known to
deny that during the campaign the
labor bosses were wholly unenthu-
siastic about Mr.. Truman, whom
they had violently opposed for the
nomination. Like great many
others. they had no idea he was
going to win and concentrated their
time and money upon defeating
candidates for Congress who had
voted for the Hartley Act.
In this certainly they were not
markedly successful, as shown by
the fact that in the next Senate
there will be 81 (out of 96) Sena-
tors who voted to override the
Truman veto on the Taft-Hartley
bill. OF this number 80 are hold
overs, II were reelected and 4

House there will be So reelected
Democrats and I'll reelected Re-
publicans all of whom voted to
override the veto. That hardly
means a mandate" for labor.
Rather it means that in both House
and Senate there will be a major
ity with a pro- Taft Hartley record.
It means that no repeal of the
Taft-Hartley Act is possible except
through White House and labor

publication of these documents now.
If the dispatches found on the
microfilm removed from Mr.. Cham
bers' farm in Maryland were re-
vealed to the public they would
cause many red faces among former
and present high officials OF the
Government.
Secrecy of diplomatic and military
correspondence between Washington
and its representatives abroad is
maintained in many cases in order
to prevent foreign nations from
learning what we have been plan
ming or now plan in the field OF
international relations.
Original PhOtOstats.
The available 200 documents show
clearly that this secrecy has not
peen preserved. According to we'll
informed sources which have had
access to the Chambers documents
our most secret dispatches were
photostated in their original form,
and without paraphrasing.
Moreover, to make sure that the
Moscow cryptographers would not
bungle, in the corner of some of
the documents appear notations OF
the number of code groups in the
dispatch and the number of the ci-
pher in which the dispatch was
coded. These notations were in
the handwriting of the individual
VINO transmitted the dispatch to the
Soviet agents This meant that all
our codes could be broken without
effort.
Specialists in cryptography say
that while it is sometimes a long
and difficult proposition to break a
code by technical means, it becomes
almost childs play If the code
breaker has at his disposal the un-
paraphrased text of the dispatch
and the type of code in which it
was sent.

 Chairman Butler R-Neb) of the Senate Committee on interior and inSular affairs also found much in the message which I heartily endorse" But he added:
 Coming at this late day, near the close of the session, I suspect the message is closely akin to a campaign speech. Our committee has worked very hard to do every thing possible to open Alaska for development and will continue doing all we possibly can to ac- complish that objective"

 The Alaska trip will mark the culmination of plans laid by a committee headed by Wallace Campbell, a member of the Board of Trustees of the Seattle Cham Der of Commerce, which was named last year by Moyor William F. Devin of Seattle to consider the possibilities of a Gold Rush celebration in Seattle.
 After lengthy consideration, the suggestion for a Seattle observ- ance was abandoned, principally because of the fact that Alaska it. self would undoubtedly play a comparatively small part in such a show.
 The committee, however, con- tinued it's efforts and finally set tied upon a plan to send the Glee Club north in commemoration of the Gold Rush days and as a sal ute to Alaskans. M.
