NEW YORK, Aug 20.-Victor A
Kravchenko. author of the anti
Communist book, Il Choose Free
dom,' says he saved Michael Sama-
rine, Russian scnool teacher, from
falling into the handS of Soviet
authorities.
Mr. Kravchenko. who has repudi-
ated his Soviet citizenship, told his
story yesterday in a 3.000woro
statement He repeated it later ir
an ABC radio interview.
Hhe said he was the intermediary
who spirited Mr.. Samarine away
from a New Jersey farm last August
8 at a time when Soviet agents
were overrunning New York anc
New jersey on the trail' of the
teacher and his family.
Mr. Kravchenko said he then ar
ranged to have Mr.. Samarine
brought under the protection of the
House American Activities Com
mlttee.
/ The rescue took place, Mr. Krav-
chenko said, the morning after Rus
sian consular officials fetched Mrs
Oksana Kosenkina, another Rus
sian teacher. from an anti-Com-
munist farm retreat in New York
State. She leaped from the Con-
sulate.

however, that he had not been SUBJ
poenaed to appear next Wednes-
day when Mr. Hiss and Mr.. Cham
bers will face each other at a public
session.
When reporters persisted in ques-
ticning him, Mr.. Abt declared:
IF this so-called executive session
is like those in the past, I'm sure
you will find out all about it."
When a reporter suggested that
he might give his side of what hap
pened behind closed doors, he re-
torted, I'm lawyer and I don't
think I need your advice as to how
to conduct myself"
Asked if he had appeared before
the New York grand jury which has
been conducting Communist espio-
mage investigation, he replied that
he did not think that was a proper
question He went on to observe that
"a lot of grand juries are stalking
around the halls of Congress these
days."
Challenges Assertion.
Mr.. Nixon challenged President
Truman's news conference assertion
yesterday repeating what the Chief
Executive had said before-that
nothing had come out OF the spy
hearings that was not known to the
FBI and New York grand jury.
Il am amazed to learn from the
Presidents statement" Mr.. Nixon
said, that Mr.. Hiss had admitted
to the FBI and grand Jury he had
known Whitaker Chambers. And
am sure Mr.. Hiss will be just as
amazed as I am
Previously Mr.. Nixon had said
that the FBI never had established
that Mr.. Hiss knew Mr.. Chambers.
1t has also been reported that Mr.:
Chambers never testified before the

For Unity, Warren
Tells Illinois Crowd
BY the Associated Press

SPRINGFIELD, Ill, Aug. 90
Gov, Earl Warren of California de-
clared yesterday that the Republi-
can Party and its Dewey-Warren
ticket, without 'rleftist or extreme
right splinters," is the Nations only
hope "to put an end to disunity.'
The COPS vice president nominee
spoke before $4,000 persons at the
Illinois State Fairs Republican Day
rally.
He urged that Gov. Thomas E.
Dewey be elected president to re-
store to the Nation the political
philosophy of faith and freedom, -
and lead the people "out of the
. shadows of uncertainty and doubt.
Draws More Than Barkley.
He shared the speaking program
at the fair grounds grandstand with
Gov, Dwight H. Green and Senator
Brooks. Illinois Republicans seek
ing reelection.
The crowd total. estimated by fair
officials. was nearly twice that
which turned out Wednesday to
hear Senator Barkley of Kentucky,
the Democratic vice presidential
nominee.
1t was Gov. Warren's first major
campaign appearance outside Call
fornia since his nomination. He told
newsmen it would be a non
political speech.
He said the world is sick and
there is great danger of sickness
here in America, strong though we
are today. But if the American
people are united & there is no
problem that we cannot solve. =
Called Only United Party.
There is only one party in Amer
lea capable of achieving that unity
and that party is the Republican
Party"
In the COP, he said. there is no
leftist element to splinter off, there
is no extreme right to splinter off in
the opposite direction. There is no
disaffection in our center We are a
united party, and no other party in
America can honestly make that
claim today
He called for Gov Dewey's elec-
tion as President and said his keen
mind his sound judgment, his
courage, his executive genius make
him man competent to lead our
people out of the shadows of un-
certainty and doubt"

tear them out of the hands of the

that 1t. Dreher would be imme-

account of Mr.. McDermotts ver-
sion of the case. in which it said
the State Department press officer
claimed the Dreher case was man

1896. With former differential
in white and colored teacher
pay completely eliminated, and
with the showing of progress in
eliminating the differential in
school houses-and it is certain
that further progress has been
made since this 1945-46 report
was compiled-the state of
North Carolina can truthfully
say it is striving for equal JUS
tice among all school children,
regardless of race Or creed.
AGGREGATE-With estimat-
ed expenditure of more than
three millions this year for the
items covered in plant operating
accounts the state cannot be
justly accused of a niegardly at
titude toward the public schools.
Public education is very definite
ly big business, but it is not the

ment heads who have appeared

age on private owned cars. w.
P. Hodges, commissioner of in
surance, presented some actual
expense account figures proving
that it is impossible for employ
ees travelling on state business
to get by on the present al =
lowance of six dollars a day
for subsistence and six cents a
mile travel. Typical weekly ex-
pense accounts showed actual
living costs ranging from seven
dollars upward per day and car
mileage cost from six to eight
cents a mile for actual mainten-
ance of operation, leaving MOTH
ing for depreciation or replace
ment.
UPPED-The travel cost item
is only one of the many which
requirelSlarger appropriations to
meet, although in some respects
it is the most pressing. All
state workers need more money
for at-home living expenses, all
institutions need more to carry
on their respective functions.
and ever-increasing demands for
expanded state services call for
larger appropriations TO- meet
them. But all parties realize
that while it is bad enough to
expect employees to work for
less than proper salary, il is
even worse to require them to

SCHOOL PLANTS-During the
school year 1945-46, latest for
which figures are available, the
state of North Carolina spent ST.
7l7,290 on operation of school
plants. The items covered in
cluded wages of janitors n d
helpers; costs of fuel, lights
water and telephones, janitors'
supplies and other incidentals.
The amount does not include
maintenance of buildings, repair
painting and such matters
which also run into large money,
but which cost is borne largely
by the counties. The l945-46
operation of plant figures is
nearly three times the one mil
lion dollars spent on the same
item during the l933-34 term.
PER PUPIL-When the total
cost is broken down to basis of
cost per pupil in average daily
attendance, it is found that the
state spent for plant operation
an average of S3.78 for each
pupil attending school during the
year. The per pupil cost varies
widely, but is uniformly higher
in city schools than in the county
systems, and in practically
double for white as compared
with colored pupils. Highest
cost was the 1857 in the South
ern pines school. while lowest
was $1.63 in the Warren county
system. Top county was Dare
with $8,46 and lowest city unit
cost $1.92 in Morven.
