superiors are trying to analyze
articles published in the govern
ment- controlled press and broad
cast on the radio.
The wide publicity given in the
Soviet press. and particularly
Pravda, to the Atlantic Pact is
not in keeping with the Soviet
methods of ignoring or barely
mentioning any kind Of treaties
or agreements to which Russia Is
not a party.
Western analysts interpret this
to mean that the Politburo, by
spreading information about the
Atlantic Pact to all Russian citi-
zens. is preparing it's own case in
an effort to demonstrate that the
Western world. under pressure
from America, is trying to encir-
Gle the u. S. s. r. and to stifle
her with an iron ring.
Hitler Used Same Method.
Hitler and Mussolini did the
same thing during the years which
preceded their aggressions. The
japanese warlords did so. too.
The wide publicity given to the
defense measures Of the Western
nations, and the attendant inter-
pretation by skilled Soviet propa-
gandists, is believed to be part Of
the Politburo's preparation Of its
position before its own people If
it decides on new aggressions,
either in Iran or in Northern
Europe.

Then he took the "a States of
the South Atlantic, East South
Central. West South Central and
Mountain States. Though they
have only IS per cent Of the popu-
lation of 45.100,000 in 1910, they
have exactly half Of the seats in
the Senate, 48, with the other IS
per cent Of the population having
the same number. Beyond that, he
pointed out that the eight Noun
tain States, with . population of
only 100000. have is Senate
seats. while his State Of Illinois,
with twice that many people, has
only two votes in the Senate.
I'VE Of the "a States Of the North,
Midwest and Pacific Coast pay 90

sonal income taxes Of the Govern
ment while the remaining "a States
pay only 20 per cent or one-flfth
Of the total" he said. "The two
States Of New York and Illinois
alone pay approximately a quarter
Of the entire income taxes Of the
country or more than all Of the "a

Mountain States combined.

more taxes. Moreover. We Of the

North and Midwest are OPEN

which We make for the people Of

States. We alone are giving In
excess Of q billion and . half dol
lars in the form Of Federal aid to
the States. The South and the
Mountain States are getting more
than their proportionate per
capita share Of this"
The Illinois Senator said he
favored a continuation Of such
aid; but he objects to having the
North, Midwest and Pacific Coast
treated as poor relations" in the
Senate. They. he said. ARE the
suppressed classes and second
class citizens in the Senate and
in the Nation.
"We~pay the taxes and what We
do decides whether we win or lose
the elections. But after winning
an election, we find it almost i'm
possible to get anything for our
selves or for the Nation. We do
not ask for position, as individuals.
but we do want to further the well
fare Of the people Of the United

Then, he concluded. on top Of
all that. the sections which profit
so much from the North, Midwest
and Pacific Coast insist on using
the filibuster. so that "a minority

Mrs. billings Libel Stuff
Against Rogge Dismissed
BY the AssoSioted Press

CHICAGO, June Federal
Judge Michael L. Igoe yesterday
dismissed 100000 libel suit filed
by Mrs. Elizabeth Dilling, anti.
Communist campaigner, against
o. John Rogge, former assistant
to the United States Attorney
General.
Dismissal was made on motion
of Albert billing, formerly Mrs
billings husband and now he,
attorney. Mr.. billing told the court
that the suit depended on testi-
mony from two men, Ralph Inger-
soil, former editor of the news
paper PM, and John P. Lewis
managing editor of the defunct
tabloid.
These men, Mr.. Dilling said, had
been expected to testify that Mr..
Rogge gave them permission to
publish articles which appeared
over his signature. Instead they
deposed that the material was
taken from a report Mr.. Rogge
made to his superiors and run
in the tabloid under his by-line
but without authorization.
Mr.. billing said this was a fatal
defect to the case, and that he
was thus asking dismissal.

ing satellite countries to Soviet
direction over their industrial and
commercial relations Is to run for
20 years.
He pointed out eastern Europe's
Moscow directed Economic Council
for Mutual Aid tECMA) was &C.
mented with treaty when it was
formed last January.
Reports reaching here, he said,
are that the 20-year period was
specified and it could be assumed
that Moscow industrial and COM
mercial experts would have the
final say on how the council
operated.
Time Limit Given as 20 Years.
"Of course, any such council had
to have a treaty or protocol to
make it effective. but we have
never seen any copy of the pro-
tocol," this expert said. 1T had
to have time to operate in, and
we understand that 20 years was
the stated time. But the time
limit Is really unimportant.
Our best understanding is that
the council was not to become
really effective until 1850 and that
this year was to be spent in
getting the council ready to work
Actually, the council has been OF
little value. so far as We can

PafaIyzing Rail Strike
Faces Britain on Eve
0fWhitsun Holiday
by IRE Asseeicfsd Press

LONDON. June "A paralyzing
weekend strike on most Of Brit
aims state-owned railways ap-
peared certain today as trainmen
defied both the Labor government
and their union leaders.
The imminent stoppage was all
the more serious this week end
because of the Whitsundde holi-
day exodus to resort areas. The
railway executive, operating the
railroads for the government. had
planned 1000 extra trains for the
week end.
Union leaders met with a COM
mittee of engineers and firemen
who threaten to tie up lines be-
tween London and Northern Eng
land and Scotland. They made a
final desperate appeal to the
trainmen to continue work.
Schedule Change Refused.
The trainmen got a blunt NO
from the governments railway
executive when they promised to
work tomorrow If work schedules
were changed. They are protest.
ing against schedules that require
them to spend night away from
home.
Meanwhile, Britons by the hun
dreds Of thousands went ahead
with plans to visit resorts or reia-
tives, taking their chances on be-
ing stranded before they reach
their destinations. The Whitsun-
tide holiday lasts through Monday.
The strike, third consecutive
24-hour Sunday only" stoppage,
would tie up all north-south
trains at the same time the rul-
ing Labor Party opens its Black
pool policy conference.
The snowballing labor unrest
got an energetic shove today
from 5000 London milkmen who
threatened they would quit work
tonight unless they get a pay
raise.
The milkmen are employees of
the United Diaries, which delivers
some 100000 bottles of milk a
day to Londoners. They are de-
handing that bonus payments,
now made at the company's dis
erection. be made a permanent
part of their salary.
Hospitals to Get Milk.
A spokesman for the milkmen
said hospitals would get milk even
If the strike is called.
Striking dock workers along
England's west coast went into the
18th day of their stoppage, begun
because some of them were sus-
pended for not unloading a strike
bound Canadian steamer.
Their union leaders called a
mass meeting at Bristol tomorrow
to try to settle the argument.
British soldiers and sailors I'M
loaded perishable cargoes from
some Of the nearly so ships lying
along wharves involved in the
strike. ..-....
Labor trouble struck close to the
hearts Of the government itself
today when leaders Of It's, 900 local
civil servants announced they
would demand pay increase and
equal pay for men and women"
The groups association covers
workers in Britain's state-operated

services, in addition to government
