almost identical foreign policy and

to the forum on the basis of charac-

Senator Cain insisted he supports
it as the realistic" way out of the

Senator Johnston reiterated his
previously announced position that
the Federal Government should in

Other taxes, such as those on
luxuries, amusements, tobacco and

by some speakers as possibilities to

Tsinan Is Surrounded

SHANGHAI, Aug. 2.-Communists
ringed Tsinan, Shantung Province
capital. with some 100000 troops
today in what appeared to be an
all-out effort to take the city. o.,
Reports from Tsinan said the city
was cut off from the outside except
by air, and that the situation was
tense. Americans there have been
warned to evacuate. -
Meanwhile, top Chinese generals
gathered in Nanking for a confer
ence on new military steps against
the Red Army. -
National forces claimed to have
dispersed 1000 Red troops In a;
battle outside of Peiping. Further
north in Manchuria, national re-
ports said railroad bridges between
Dairen and Anshan were being
blown up by Red troops. 50

taken by Mukden nationalist troops

members.
Discipline in the party is such
that it cannot be conveyed to the
normal American mind" Mr.. Bud
enz declared. 1T is discipline OF
accepting orders without question"
1T is travesty to call it politi-
cal party. It's sole purpose Is to serve
Soviet Russia"
Asked by Senator Aiken, Repub-
lican of Vermont, whether he be-
lieved American Communists would
desert the party III event of a war
between this country and Russia,
Mr.. Budenz said he believed there
would be "a certain measure OF
desertion." Later, he said there was
no doubt that the majority Of party
members would line up against the
United States-"a large enough per-
centage to be a problem on the
United States, particularly when SO
many of them are underground"
Senator Ives, Republican, of New
York mentioned that Miss Bentley
said she had taken, no oath of al
legiance to the Communist Party.
He wanted to know If there was
such an oath.
Mr. Budenz said no oath was nee
essary because Communists are
persuaded to remain loyal to the
party not only through fear Of
blackmail if they desert, but also
because of constant conditioning to
believe that socialist state is in
evitable.
Officials to Be Called.

rights. American Legion counselors
attending the sessions said the CIVIL
rights planks in both parties were
considerably watered down"
The parties were fundamentally
in accord on the Taft-Hartley LABOR
Act. The Federalists supported the
anti Communist provisions OF the
law, and said the controversial law
should be repealed "only when a
more comprehensive bill is pre-
sented." The Nationalist recon-
mened that present methods for
solving labor disputes be used to
the fullest"
The Federalists called upon Con-
gress for immediate action" to curb
imitation, but made no specific rec
concentrations.
Saturday night the Nationalist
Party nominated G. Oliver Samp-
son, IT, of Oklahoma as its presl-
Dental candidate, and Albert d.
Hlldreth, jr., II, of Houston, TEX
as its vice presidential candidate.
On the Federalist ticket, William l..
Geary, IS, of New Orleans was NOM
mated for the presidency, with Ken

At a hearing yesterday by the
Judiciary Committee" Represen-
tative Mundt, Republican, OF South
Dakota, author of the Mundt-Nixon
bill to control the Communist Party
came in for "going-over" by forum
Senators"
/ one member of the committee asked
Mr., Mundt how he reconciled his
definition of the Communists as an
ordinary party and sought, at the
same time, restrictive legislation "a
little sitter" than that which con-
trolls the two major parties.
Well" said the South Dakotan,
ST meant that the Communist Party
claims to be a legitimate political
party. Actually it is not; it operates
underhandedly to undermine the
Government.
At another hearing, Senator Fer
guson, Republican, of Michigan tes-
tilted before the Foreign Relation
COMMITTEES on a bill to lend the
United Nations S65 5000 to con-
struct a headquarters in New York.
Senator Ferguson's enthusiasm at
the proceedings was evident and at
the close of the session he ex-
claimed: This is wonderful world.

and learn about your Government
in this way" .
Tonight at 7 o'clock the boys will

tions for immediate action. de

gram as partisan.
Concerned Only With Action.
IT am not now concerned as tc
where responsibility lies for the
immediate and disastrous threat
that hangs over every American
citizen. I am concerned only with
whether measures can be agreed
,,pon to attempt to do something
about meeting the situation-a crisis
which cannot tolerate inaction.
On the bank credit control bill
the only argument is whether II
should affect only Federal Reserve
Board member banks, about nall OF
the Nations commercial institu-
tions or include all banks. Mr.. NC
Cabe said the board. at a meeting
this morning, agreed the inclusion
of nonmember banks is essential
to make the proposed legislation
fully effective"
The measure would permit the
Reserve Board to order an increase
in bank reserves of another 10 per-
centage point on demand deposits
and 4 percentage points on time de-
posits. Mr.. McCabe estimated for
reporters, before today's hearing
began, the measure could increase
bank reserves by as much as S9,0OO,-
O0O,0 900 for member banks and an
other ,5OOO00,000 for nonmember
banks.
The extent of credit contraction,
however, is impossible to estimate,
because it depends upon the re-
action of individual banks and their
own reserve situation, he added.
Wants Steel Executives Called
Before Mr.. McCabe testified to-
day, Representative Spence Of Ken
lucky, the ranking Democrat on the
committee, referred to a newspaper
report of a proposed further price
increase by the United States Steel
Corp. He suggested that leading
steel executives be called before the
committee to explain the recent in
crease of over 50 a ton on steel and
any proposed new increase.
Chairman Wolcott replied that
possibly later on this week" such
a move might be made, although
he did not think "any of us know
enough" about the last price in
crease to Judge whether 1t was
justified.
Mr.. McCabe, in discussing the
effects of the proposed bank credit
measure, pointed out that IAN in
crease in requirements immobilizes
reserves and makes them unavail-
