nagel was commander In chief of
German troops In Occupied France
from october as, 1870, until June,
1912. He also was military COM
mander of greater Paris.
Tried Suicide Before.
He was accused of ordering the
execution of % hostages in August,
1941, after a German officer was
killed in the Paris subway, and SO
hostages at another time, after dis
turbances at Bordeaux and Nantes.
Military authorities at Reuilly
barracks said he had tried to kill
himself once before. That was aft
er he first was questioned in France,
they said.
The French Committee of Ma
tional Liberation said August, 1914,
in Algiers that Stuelpnagel had
committed suicide in France after
failure of a generals plot to assassi-
nate Hitler with a bomb.
A week before, the Berlin radio
had said that French terrorist"
had wounded the general severely.

the general whose orders had put
him in prison. He was Maurice
Albert Aubry, an Associated Press
photographer who was member OF
the wartime French resistance.
Stuelpnagel's suicide came little
more than day after another Ger
man general, Johannes Blaskowitz
plunged to his death at Nuremberg
to avoid a trial for war crimes.
Stuelpnagel also faced charges Of
war crimes, the greatest of which
was authorizing the shooting OF
French hostages in retaliation fol-
sabotage and assault by the French
resistance.
Faced Trial in Summer.
A spokesman for the army court
which was to try him said he would
have gone on trial early this sum-
mer. Brig. Gen. Jean lie Gorguillier
who had been preparing the case
against Stuelpnagel, said he was to
have questioned the German general
this afternoon.
Stuelpnagel's cousin, Heinrich
who replaced him here in 1912, was
executed in Germany in 1914 for
participating in the Munich bomb
plot against Adolf Hitler.
His defense counsel, Marco
Heraud, said:
II saw him few days ago ano
he seemed depressed. I tried tt
convince him that his case was moi
so desperate as he thought"
Arrested in 1916.
Stuelpnagel was arrested on his
estate in the French occupation
zone of Germany December II, 1916
He had been sought by the French
since Germanys' defeat in the spring
of 1915. He was brought to Paris
to be tried.
Heraud said an investigation o.
his clients case still was in progress
and would have delayed the trial fol-
some time. -

Decision to extend such an in

of this committee is Representative
Allen, Republican: of Illinois.
In the invitation that will be sent
to the Pacific commander, he will
be asked to report to Congress on
his administration of Japan and
on the international situation in
the Far East.
UNIT Issue Is Involved.
From committee sources, however
1t was learned that there are several
other detectives behind the plan to
bring Gen. Macarthur to Washing
ton under congressional auspices
1t was indicated that the controver.
stal issue Of universal military train
ing and the G.. o. P. presidential
campaign also are involved:
A report has been current ir
Washington for several months that
Gen. Macarthur Is opposed to UNIT

DR.. Lleras reviewed at length the
20-year history of the case since
Congress approved construction Of
the annex on the triangle bounded
by Constitution avenue, Virginia
avenue, Eighteenth and Nineteenth
streets NV. Plans prepared by the
late Paul P. Cret were approved by
the Fine Arts Commission in 1884
on November IT, 1889, and again or
February %, 1916.
Objections Overruled.
He added: "The reasons for these
successive combinations are clear
the Governing Board of the Pan
American Union was unwilling to
order work begun on the annex in
spite of the urgent need for add.
tional Office space, until the Fine
Arts Commission had had an oppor-
tunity to study carefully various
objections that had been raised to
the project, and 1t was only after
the Governing Board was fully con-
WINGED that the commission had
considered and overruled these OBJ
jections that the board decided to
start work on the new building"

past have repeatedly suggested that
the annex building be placed on the
grounds of the main Union building.
DR.. Lleras today took up this point,
reminding Mr.. Krug of the action
of the Fine Arts Commission. That
body had informed the Union that
it "hesitates to advise locating ad-
ditional buildings" on the square,
because "the buildings and land
scape of the Pan American Union
are among the most admired of all
sites in the National Capital"

Like several members of Congress
who already have testified before
the ,un- American activities subcom-
mittee working on anti-C Communist
legislation, Mr.. Richberg favored o
law requiring Communists to regis
ter as agents Of foreign power.
Disagrees With Clark.
But he disagreed with Attorney
General Clark, who testified yester-
day that it was difficult to prove
Communists were foreign agents.
Mr.. Richberg said the Attorney
General was inclined to be ultra
conservative in anything where he
might appear to be criticizing the
Supreme Courts decision.
Openly critical of the Supreme
Court, Mr.. Richberg said he be-
lieved the courts decision In the
Schneiderman case had been q
considerable deterrment" to prose-
cutting Communists under the pres.
ent laws. This case concerned a
naturalized citizen whose citizen
ship the Justice Department tried
to cancel on the ground he was,
a Communist Party member. The,
Supreme Court ruled for the de-,
PENDANT.
Mr.. Richberg added, however,
that the circumstances Of the time
the fact that when the case was
decided in 1913, Russia and the
United States were allies-had
much to do with the courts deci-
sion. Since the complete unmask-
ing of the wolf" Mr.. Richberg
added, the attitude of the court
might be different. An article in

Newman went on to state
that Scouting could accomplish
these goals only if every boy is
given an opportunity to know
Scouts, every parent of a boy
