The United States may break
a three-year deadlock on Japa-
nese reparations by taking the
decision into its own hands
away from the 11-nation Far
Eastern Commission.
An official of the commission who
refused to be quoted by name said
today that the United States takes
the position it can settle the prob
lem through an interim directive"
to Gen. Macarthur if disagreement
persists in the commission.
He said the American Government
believes it is legally entitled to take
this action, provided the subject of
the interim directive is an urgent
one on which the commission has
not yet acted.
The question came up yesterday
in connection with publication of
a commission report, indicating that
reparations and the future level of
Japanese industry are the only mat
ters of major Importance still pend
ling before the commission.
4 The spokesman said Maj. Gen.
Frank R. Mccoy, American delegate
and chairman of the commission,
is hopeful that the II nations
concerned will reach agreement on
the reparations question this year.

day and then robbed him of
S1,8l6 in cash and checks, police

Railway Executive Found
Dead in Pullman Here

Benjamin F. Parsons, St, vice
president and secretary of the Chi
'cago Great Western Railway, was
found dead in his Pullman berth
shortly after his train arrived at
Union Station this morning.
Station officials said Mr.. Parsons
was discovered in his berth by the
train conductor, C. T. Didiwick,
after the porter failed to arouse
him. The train reached the sta
ton at 9:24 am.
The railroad man, whose home is
in Chicago, was pronounced dead
by DR.. Paul Kemp, a terminal
physician. Death apparently was
due to natural causes, Dr. Kemp
said. The body was removed to
the District Morgue and police were
trying to notify Mr.. Parsons fam
lily.
Mr.. Parsons was believed to have
made the trip to Washington to
attend a hearing at the Interstate
Commerce Commission scheduled
for $50 am. today, involving the
Chicago Great Western.
Mr.. Parsons was born in National
City, Calf, in 1881. He started
his railroading career in 1901 with
the Alton Railroad and had been
connected with the Chicago Great
Western since 1910.

Truman Accusation
FaIse, Pravda Says
ky the Associoted Press

MOSCOW, Jan. 4.-The Commu-
mist Party newspaper Pravda de-
clared today that President Tru-
mans recent statement that Russia
had failed to carry out her agree
ments was "a complete contradic-
ton to the truth and generally
known facts
The Soviet press mentioned for
the first time the declaration on
Russian American relations deliv-
cred by President Truman in Kan
sas City December a.
This declaration was necessary" !"
Pravda said, 'in order to cover up
the too obvious illegal decisions on
the Ruhr question which were
adopted before the new year at the
London conference of the United
States, France, England and the
Benelux countries-crude violations
OF the Yalta and Potsdam agree
ments."
The six-power plan to establish
an international control authority
for the Ruhr was announced De-
cember %. Diplomatic authorities
said Russia hight get a voice in
controlling Ruhr industries if the
East-West quarrel was settled.
The high point Of President Tru-
mans December 27 speech was his
report that certain leaders in Rus
sia are exceedingly anxious" to
reach an agreement with the United
States to end the cold war. This
angle apparently was not empha-
sized in the Soviet press.

Civil Service Denies Busing Pay
On Number of Jobs Supervised

The Civil Service Commission to-
day issued denial that Government
supervisory employees are paid on
the basis of the number of persons
they supervise and that this is one
reason why Federal employment re-
mains so high.
The commission declared such a
practice is prohibited both by law
and by its own regulations.
The statement was taken to be a
reply to some members of the Hoover
Commission who have charged that
supervisory employees seek to build
up their Offices 50 they can take ad-
vantage of the practice of raising
the supervisors grade and salary as
the number of employees supervised
increases.
Representative Brown, Republican,
of Ohio, a member of the Hoover
commission on Organization of the
Executive Branch of the Govern
ment, charged in a speech last
month that the Federal payroll was
padded because of the practice of
salary grading of supervisory en-
Evening star., 1949-01-04

ployes on the basis of the number
of persons working under them.
Several other members of the
Hoover group have also made this
criticism to reporters.
While not mentioning the Hoover
group or any of its members by
name, the commission left no doubt
that it was referring to them in its
statement. 1t pointed out that Con-
gress has enacted legislation for
bidding the payment of supervisors
salaries solely on the basis of the
employees in their groups or sections.
That is only one factor involved,
the commission said. The i'm
portance, responsibility and COM
plexities of the assignments given
supervisors are the major factors
in determining their salaries.
The Civil Service Commissions
statement today marks the first
time that a Government agency
has officially disputed some of the
Hoover Commission findings. The
Administration is reported to have
cautioned bureaus not to enter into
public controversy on the issues. \
