REDS ATTEMPT GREEK ASSASSINATION

Associated Press NewsfeatureS)
 The woes that go with being Greek political leader are being intensified by Communist terroriss who want to put on end to their woes-and them
 Hardly day passes that minister doesn't receive an anonymous telephone call that goes something lika hs
 You dirty fascist reactionary. You have only few days to live We're going to kill you Long live Markos!"
 Minister of Justice Christos Ladas had several such calls before the Greek communists ceberated May Day with his assassination The Greek police can't trace the calls because Athens has modern dial system.
 George Papandreou, who prime minister at the time Greece liberated and when the revolution of 1914 broke out, is becoming somewhat caoused to at tempts and plots his life Already twice hand gren- ades have been thrown through the doors of his home but he has escaped serious injury each time
 few days ago the OPLA, Communist execution squad had him scheduled for assassination at the time he would be attending the wedding of friend. re- pentant Communist, however, gave the plot away and he police arrested six persons.
 Papandreou, chief of the Republican Socialist Party is particularly despsed by the Communists because he summoned British troops to quel the 1924 rebellion
 Guerrilla Chief Markos has nominated virtually ev- cry Greek political leader for extinction He issues his sentences his radio and demands that comrades in the cities carry out his orders There is little doubt they are trying.

All that harms labor is treason to America" said Lincoln. No line can be drawn between these two If any tells you he loves America yet hates labor he is liar If any tells you he trusts American yet fears labor he is fool There is America without la- bor, and to fleece the one is to rob the other"

BRITISH RECOVERY PLAN

There is more comment on the four-year plan for British recovery and the Labor Daily Herald is conf-i dent that it will succeed with reasonable cooperation abroad and rejects Conservative doubts nigging and inspired by party anmosity." The Herald says:
 ''The plan gives the British people lead on fair shares and of united effort To the other nations of Western Europe the plan gives lead by which to frame their own recovery programs and fit them into the rebuilding of Europe which Marshall aid is meant to foster'
 The Financial Times says:
 After 1852 there will have to be much withholding of spending power in this country if the work of cry is to go without nflation It must be done by ings-forced or voluntary-and the Governments monetary policy must encourage voluntary ings those being much preferable to forced savings
 The Manchester Guardian says
 "Not only Britain but the entire Western world has been too optimistic about the time reconstruction would take. In their fouryear Marshall Plan the Americans assumed that full recovery would be near by 1852.
 'Britan's four-year plan formally admits that this assumption is wrong, and the West has think out a realistic pattern for trading after 1952.''
 The paper foresees what it calls 'new apparatus for yet another interim period before full recovery.
 Praise to the Miners
 The Daily Express praised the countrys miners and wished them good luck If their wages soaring be- of their extra efforts, the Express would like to miners wages getting higher every week. but the basis of dearer coal The paper says:
 'The National Coal Board has failed to offset wage increases by increased efficiency From this it launches an attack against Governmon management generally. London Hearings The News Chronicle comments the close of the London hearings into allegations against Ministers and Government servants The paper says:
 The tribunals very existence affrms the transcen- dent importance the British people attach to the nteg rity of their public service.
 It is necessary than to safeguard the trad ton of incorruptiby in these days when there is so much Government control over industry
 Ordinary people, reading the evidence given to the tribunal have been amazed at their glimpses of fho Of he haS| had to deal with some very tiny operations compared
 with the vast daily activities of both Government and private enterprise" The paper is confident the tribunals findings will keep matters to their proper proportions Britains Drink Trade

Mr.. Carlson, sponsor Of the
legialation, had written to the
University President about the
matter after reading the account
OF Mr.. Amberg's lobbying activi-
ties in the Minneapolis Spokesman
and st. Paul Recorder. DIR. Morrill,,
in his letter 20 Mr.. Carlson,
praised Mr.. Amberg as IAN honor
able, useful and devoted public
servant who holds the confidence
Of many members Of the legisla-
ture."
Amberg had described the anti
discrimination bin, IN a report to
hospital colleagues, as one that
had to be killed, and killed very
quietly"
In his letter, Mr.. Carlson raised
the question Of whether it was
proper for university experts to
act as pressure lobbyists on pend
ing legislation. He said that such
activities made the university ex-
perts unavailable to the law
makers as unbiased advisers.
DR.. Morrill, replied that Mem
bers Of the staff are citizens and
voters, with proper civic interests
and responsibilities, and any CEN
sorship Of their civic and political
activities Is unthinkable." He de-
clared that the hospital associa-
ton is a reputable professional
organization which by no means
could be described rs an example
Of special private interests.'"
Practically an private hospitals
in the Twin Cities area discrimin-
ate against Negro patients by
forcing they to take private rooms
whether they can afford the ex-
pense or not.
Ward Accommodations are not
generally open to Negroes.
The proposed bill sponsored by
representative Carlson would have
been a step toward hating such
practices.
Mr.. Amberg repeatedly told
legislators that no race or relig-
ious discrimination was practiced
in Minnesota private hospitals.

Legion Head Scores
Dangerous Attack on
IGl Benefits in Press
" the AssoeiGtse Press

/ Perry Brown. national comn1an-
der of the American Legion. said
yesterday dangerous. irrespon-
sible and. in some cases. greedy
attack" is being made on benefits
for war veterans.
Mr.. Brown said he has found
signs Of this attack in newspape
and magazine articles and in rec
concentrations Of the Hoover Com
mission and the American Hos
pital Association.
/ Writing in the current issue of
the American Legion Magazine
Mr.. Brown said
For the second time in Is
years. opposition to established
veterans benefits by special and
powerful groups contains elements
of a real crisis for all war vete-
rams. 1t represents a challenge
which may call for the full fighting
strength OF the American Legion. "
Hoover Group Criticized.
Mr.. Brown likened the situation
to 1888. when he said the in
famous, callous and cold -blooded
Economy Act"-repealed a year
later-and other legislation closed
Army and Navy hospitals to vet
erans and reduced other benefits.
He criticized particularly recon-
mendations of the commission
headed by former President
Hoover for reorganization Of the
Federal Government
| The commission proposed that
/ a general Federal hospital sys-
tenn be set up to take over hos
pitfalls now operated independently
by the Veterans Administration
the Army, the Navy, the Marine
Corps, the Public Health Service
and other agencies.
1T is the experience of the
American Legion and of thousands
| of veterans and many VA en-
ployes that there is already toe
much red tape confronting the
veteran who is eligible under law
for VA disqualification, Mr.. Brown
declared.
High Cost Seen in Change.
Removal of VA hospitals to O
brand new bureau will throw an
other wall of expensive paper
work, inter-office memoranda and
bureaucrats between the sick vet
eran and his hospital bed"
Mr.. Brown also attacked an
American Hospital Association
proposal to close VA hospitals to
some nom -service-connected dis
abled veterans and provide those
veterans with insurance
policies providing for care in pri-
vate hospitals.
Mr.. Brown said q propaganda
front" is preparing Americans for
an assault on veterans benefits.
THE enemies Of the veteran are
molding the public mind again
with phony statistics, misrepresen-
tations. exaggerations. distortions
and lf-truths-all aimed at
sabotating the veterans program
