Chambers Shows Strain.
For the first time since the
cross-examination began last
Thursday afternoon, Mr.. Chambers
exhibited signs of emotional strain
when the lawyer made him admit
to having given false answers and
knowing they were false. Mr..
Chambers voice became loud and
sharp as he stepped on the heels
of Mr.. Stryker's questions with
monosyllabic admissions.
Mr.. Stryker recalled that when
the witness made earlier admis-
sions of perjury-committed in
the period before he broke with
the Communists-Mr. Chambers
was relaxed and smiling as he
told the jury frankly. Certainly

Are you smiling now at your

MIR. Stryker asked tauntingly.

Mr.. Chambers paused a mo-

Judge Kaufman interposed to
instruct Mr.. Stryker not to argue
with the witness. The clerk read

Quiet Political PURGE
0usting Thousands
Reported in Russia
sy the Assoeiofsd Press

NEW YORK, June 6.--The New
York Times said today a political
purge is taking place in Russia.
A Paris dispatch from c. L.
Sulzberger said evidence can be
assembled showing at least 300,-
900 members have been expelled
from the Communist Party and
that membership in the Kom-
somol-Communist Youth League
has fallen.
The Times listed several i'm
portant party leaders as having
disappeared quietly. These in
il. cluded:
N. A. Voznesensky, former Po-
litburo member.
A. A. Kuznetzov, Central Com
mittee secretary.
p. 8. Popkov. member of the
Presidium of the Supreme Soviet.
Yri A. Zhdanov, son of the late
Politburo chief.
I. T. Golyakov, former chief of
the Soviet Supreme Court.
Mr.. Sulzberger said it appeared
those now suffering were members
of the so-called "Shdanov fac
tions," persons who were close to
or followed the line of Andrei
zhdanov who died August 81.
194s. at 50.
The cause of his death was
listed officially as heart failure.
but there were worldwide rumors
that he had been 'liquidated."
He had been Stalin's favorite
and regarded as the generals
simo's most likely successor.
However, the Times said, he had
fallen from favor before his death
and been replaced by his reputed
rival, Georgi M. Malenkov.
Mr.. Sulzberger's dispatch said
persons relegated to ooscurity un-
der Zhdanov are being "rehabili-
tated" and cited G. F. Alexandrov,
one OF the party's propaganda
chiefs. as an example.
This purge can in no sense be
compared to that series of up
heavels which shook the entire
structure of the U. s. s. r. during
the 1905, the Times said.
Widespread ExpuIsions.
Nevertheless, the newspaper
continued, there have beer wide
spread expulsions from the Com
munist Party for theological rea-
sons. 1t said party membership
had fallen from 100000 in Sep
tember, 1947. to 100000 last
January.
Allowing for the admission of
new recruits during that time. the
article said, it is probably that
more than 100000 explosions
have occurred.
Besides the five men definitely
listed, the Times said several
other top Communists have been
ousted. including a former Prime
Minister of the Russian Soviet
Federated Socialist Republic.
Membership in the Komsomol
fell from 10.500.000 in 1941 to
s.2S3. .28s in March Of this year,
the Times said.
In a1l sections Of the party,
efforts are being made to enforce
q rigid orthodoxy, the story de-
clared.
It said that in no sense can
the current purge pe related to
other recent Soviet personnel
shifts such as the relief OF v. M.
Molotov and A. !. Mikoyan from
the cabinet.

Retail Prices Up
As Shorter Hours
Cut Take Home Pay

Washington (LPA)-With econ
omic conditions, by all the meas
ures used here, just about staying
on the same level for several
months, the experts were looking
to the small shifts one way or an
other to indicate whether drastic
steps to stop either initiation or re-
cession might be needed in the
weeks ahead. Here are some of the
indicators:
1-Employment. The number of
jobs in non-agricultural establish
ments was lower in March than in
February, but was nearly balanced
by pickup in farm work. The num-
ber of unemployed, according to
Bureau of Labor Statistics, still is
about 100000 for the second sue
cessive month. Unless there are
some mass layoffs in industry dur
ing late April, it is likely that any
| g e-scale unemployment has
been avoided for a while.
Work-week. While joblessness
hasn't increased sharply, there is
more "work-spreading" in industry,
as evidenced by the drop in aver
age number of hours worked a
week from 1914 in February to 38.9
in March.
3-Wages. While hourly wages
in March were only 12c lower than
in February, the shorter work
week resulted in cut in the aver
age weekly paycheck from $54.25
to $53.37.
Planners income. While farm
ers are expected to produce just
about as much as last year, farm
income will be off about 10ao as a
result of lower prices. This has al
ready been demonstrated in early
1949 figures compiled by Commerce
Dept.
5-Cost of living. It's up again.
Between mid-February and mid
March, retail food prices rose 1% /,
resulting in an increase in the cost
of-living index of the Bureau of
Labor Statistics of 0.3%. This is
the first advance after five straight
months when the consumers price
index has gone down slightly each
month. Rising rents also contri-
buted to the increase; in Mime
apolis and Boston, even the BIS
very faulty calculations showed
rents had risen an average of III
in three months, and in Boston this
will be greater if the allowance of
$50 individual rent boosts to COM
pensate for higher taxes goes thru.

Anyone who will go back to the
record of the war years will find
that the steel industry really ought
to be cheering any Government
proposal to survey the need for
building more steel plants. The rea-
son is that all wartime activity in
this business turned out TO be a
great boon and windfall to private
industry.
"In all, $50 steel-making facil-
tiles were built at Government ex-
pense. Fifty-two were iron and
steel making plants proper. Fifty
were foundries, 16 were forge
plants and 32 were alloy furnaces,
mines, coal and coke plants, and
so forth.
"The government built these
plants at premium prices. Often
the government units were inte-
grated with existing facilities own
ed by the private steel companies.
In short, the government merely
expanded their capacity to make
money, for free.
"The government then gave these
