Bugas 10 Head Inquiry
Into Atomic Security;
Tate, Mullen on Panel
BY the Associated Press

The Atomic Energy Commission
has named a former FBI official
to look into, its security division,
which guards the Nations atomic
secrets.
Carroll Wilson. Acc general
manager, said an advisory panel
selected for the two-month job
will be headed by John s. Bugas
Of Detroit. Mr.. Bugas, vice presi-
dent in charge of the Ford Motor
Co.'S industrial relations, formerly
headed the FB1's Detroit Office.
With him will serve DR.. John
Tate, chairman Of the physics de-
partment Of the University of
Minnesota and former president
Of the American Physical Society,
and j. Arthur Mullen, president
Of Glenvale Products, Detroit.
Mr.. Tate served on the National
Defense Research Committee in
World War II. while Mr.. Mullen
q former Export-Import Bank and
State Department official-was
with Army Intelligence.
Others May Join Panel.
Mr.. Wilson said in an an
nouncement yesterday that one or
two more persons may be named
to the panel, adding that the
group also will be asked for ad-
vice on a successor to Rear Ad-
mtral John Gingrich, who quit as
atomic security director seven
months ago.
The Acc official gave no rea-
son for the survey of the security
division. The division Is re-
sponsible for protecting atomic
installations, granting personnel
security clearances, and guarding
secret materials and information
However, the Acc was reported
to feel that it would be good
thing to have an outside group
look into the subject to see if i'm
provements are possible. Admiral
Gingrich quit as director of the
division last May to return to &C.
tive Navy duty.
Lilienthal to Delay Move.
Mr.. Bugas and his colleagues on
the committee will not give up
their private employment.
Meanwhile, President Truman
announced that David e. Lilien-
thai has agreed to stay on until
February Is as chairman Of the
Atomic Energy Commission.
Mr.. Lilienthal gave Mr.. Truman
his resignation last month, to be
effective December 81. At that
time he said he would be willing
to stay on for while If Mr.. Tru-
man wished.
The President told a news con-
ference late yesterday he had
asked Mr.. Lilienthal to stay on
until mid-February and that Mr..
Lilienthal had consented.
It is understood that Mr.. Tru-
man wants Mr.. Lilienthal to re-
main in the post until he has
nominated a successor and the
Senate has confirmed the nom
inee.

Testimony Continued
By Western Union Oh
Messenger Wages

The Western Union Telegraph
Co. continues it's testimony at a
Labor Department hearing today
on its request for sub-minimum
wages for telegraph messengers
under the minimum wage law.
August Gleichmann, assistant
to the vice president, was to out
line in detail other means Of
transmission, besides messengers,
which the company may use, If
the request is not granted by the
Labor Department.
Mr. Gleichmann was the last
witness at yesterdays hearing.
which adjourned after he told of
the various means Of delivery now
in use. These are messengers,
telephone, counter operations and
direct lines to offices.
Other Officials to Testify.
Several other company officials
are to testify, before cross-ex-
animation by attorneys for the
AFL Commercial Telegraphers
Union and the American Com
munications Association of the
CIO.
The hearing will be recessed at
3 pm. today until 10 am. Wednes-
day.
The new minimum wage law,
which goes into effect January Is,
provides that messengers pri-
marily engaged in delivering let
ters and messages may receive
wages below the 75-cents an hour
minimum, if necessity is estab-
lished.
Whether such necessity exists is
the center of the argument be-
tween company and union coun-
sci.
Contention Of Company.
The company contends operat-
ing costs will be increased by
$l.100.000 If 5000 messengers
throughout the country must be
paid the new minimum. They con-
tend this will force increased use
Of phones. direct lines and other
transmission means and will cur
tail opportunity for employment
OF messengers.
The company Is asking q 65-
cent minimum, as provided for in
present contracts with the unions.
Union attorneys have asked for
detailed records on company A.
nances since 1898, when the mini
mum wage was Is cents an hour.

said Police Supt. Edwin Morgan
After the attempts on the lives
Of Walter and Victor Reuther,
police guards were placed at the

Walter was shot and seriously

|Anen Due 10 Tell Titc
U. 5. Is Opposed 10
Any Aggression

George v. Allen, new Ambas-
sador to Yugoslavia, will inform
the Tito governments major
target Of the Soviet-that the
United States is opposed to ag-
gression against any nation.
Instructions to this effect were
given to Mr.. Allen yesterday by
President Truman, who later told
his news conference that NO
change in American policy is in
volved, that the United States has
been against aggression. no matter
where, for q long time.
When q reporter asked whether
the anti-ageression policy woulc

The Yugoslav matter was brought
up by the imminent departure for
Belgrade Of Mr.. Allen. who plans
to leave Wednesday to present his
credentials to Marshal T1to's gov
ernment.
Tito has been under heavy pres
ure from the Russians since his
break with Moscow more than a
year ago. There has been specu-
lation that the Russians might try
to break his power by means Of
guerrilla warfare.
The United States and other
Western nations have given Tito
economic and political assistance
since he stormed out Of the Soviet
camp. But there never has been
any official statement Of what this
sountry's policy would be in the
event Of q Soviet Communist at

suited in a situation which finds
the demand for Government jobs
far exceeding the supply.
When jobs were plentiful and
applicants hard to ind, the Civil
Service Commission, in many
cases. waived the apportionment
quota, whereby each State is en-
titled to a certain number Of Fed
eral jobs based on population fac
tors. This meant that Washing
tonians, who before the war had
been considerably hampered by
the Districts rather small quota,
could easily get Government jobs.
But all this is changed now.
CLERICAL JOBS The new
policy is apparent in the clerical
job situation.
Quite a few persons here who
made a high grade in the COM
MISSIONS first permanent status
clerical exam nearly a year ago
still are waiting in vain to be
certified for employment. The
reason they have not been called
is that persons from out-of-town
are being selected ahead Of them
under apportionment require
mentS.
This situation also will affect a
considerable number Of applicants
who took the commissions second
permanent status clerical exam
several months ago. Apportion-
ment quotas will permit only the
allotment Of q certain number Of
clerical jobs to applicants who live
In Washington.
The situation affects not only
outsiders here desirous Of Govern
ment employment, but war-serv-
ice employees as well. The war
service people are trying to get
status and be certified for per-
manent employment before their
Jobs are eliminated.

REAL REASON-White House
officials say the chief reason be-
hind President Truman's forth.
coming recommendation to Con-
gress that the position Of assis-
tant secretary for administration
be created for each department
and major agency is the Presi-
dents belief that only through
such q move can reduction OF
excess personnel and improved
efficiency be achieved in Govern
ment.
Administration officials say the
President is convinced that q
career official, completely divorced
from politics, should be in charge
OF each departments day-to-day
administrative affairs. They
pointed out that Cabinet officers
and agency heads, for the most
part, are concerned primarily with
policy matters and, in most cases.
do not have much administrative
experience.
Another way Of saying it Is that
most Cabinet officers are political
appointees who often are more
concerned with increasing the size
Of their particular department
