Los Angeles Police on Alert
For Robson Talk Toniqhf
BY the Associated Press

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 3O.-Po-
lice are on the alert today as
Paul Robson arrives for a sing
ing-and speaking-engagement.
The left-wing Negro singer is
scheduled to speak tonight at
Wrigely Field, home OF the Coast
League Los Angeles Angels in the
heart Of this city'S Harlem.
The occasion is the 10th an
niversary celebration of the Cali
fornia Eagle. Negro newspaper.
Robson ia, honor guest, !
/ The City. Council has warned
all groups not having anything
directly to do with the program
to stay away from the ball park.
The usher concessionnaire refuses
to supply ushers for the occasion,
frankly fearing a riot.
Police Chief w. A. Worton has
ordered tight patrol of the park
by a large Gordon of uniformed
and plain clothes policemen. The
chief refused to give figures, but
estimates of police officers ex-
pected to be on hand ran over
$50.
There has been no indication
thus far, however, that any group
or groups plan to demonstrate
against Robeson's appearance. His
most recent talk, at Chicago,
created no disturbance.
But police and other authorities
point out that Los Angeles has the
largest group of Communist
SympathizerS outside New York
and chances of a pro or anti
Robson demonstration, similar to
that at Peekskill last month, are
greater here than in Chicago.

Threats on Red Policy
BY the Associated Press

The editor of a Hungarian news
paper at Bridgeport, Conn.,, told
Senate investigators yesterday that
two Office of War Information
employees practically swayed the

Paul Nadanyi, editor of the
Amerikai Magyarsag at Bridge
port, submitted this statement to
a Senate Judiciary subcommittee
considering legislation to bar sub
versive aliens from the United
States.
Mr.. Nadanyi said Moscow for
many years has been directing a
campaign to win America Hungar-
ians to communism. During the
war. he continued, he maintained
a policy of advocating all military
aid to Russia but keeping the
Communists three feet away. re-
minding them time and again
that they first must prove their
fterthe shooting phase
of the war is over." -.
Concerning the owl, Mr.. Ma
danyi said:
Alan Cranston, chief of the
foreign language section of the
Office of War Information, and his
first lieutenant, David Carr-fore-
merly David Katz of the Daily
Worker-came to my Office and
practically swayed the club over
my head to tone down all differ
ences with the Communists" Mr..
Nadanyi.
He added that he took his
quarrels with Cranston to Elmer

did not say what Mr.. Davis said.

PUG Studies Testimony
On Gas Rate Boost as
Hearing Is Concluded

The Public Utilities Commits
sion today was studying testimony
on the Washington Gas Light Co.
petition that it be allowed to in
crease rates Z per cent for District
subscribers.
The commission finished hear
ing testimony on the proposed in
crease yesterday. During the IL
days of public sessions, the group
heard l,500 pages of testimony
and admitted 81 exhibits for study.
One more public meeting is
scheduled for October 10. when
company officials will be ques-
toned on the new rate schedule
the company would put into effect
if the increase were granted. The
rate raise would increase revenues
by 100000 a year. The bill OF
the average" consumer not heat
ing his home by gas would be in
creased "a cents a month. Gus
toners using gas for heating
would face an approximate in
crease of SLOT.
The petition has been opposed
by the Federal Bureau of Supply,
which maintained an increase of
little more than 4 per cent
would be sufficient, if the COM
pany amortized its cost of con-
version to natural gas over a Is
year period. The increase also
was opposed by the Gas Consum-
ers and Independent Appliance
Dealers, which maintained the
company would save enough
money to make a rate increase
unnecessary, If it stopped selling

that she was in need Of any med
