Tucker Tried 10 Conceal
Expense Data, Trial Told
BY the Assoeiofsd Press

CHICAGO, Nov. 18. Preston
Tucker attempted to conceal ex-
pense records, a former Tucker
Corp. executive testified In Fed
eral Court yesterday.
And, Herbert Morely testified,
when he attempted to get a
breakdown of $780, 900 in ex-
penses, Mr.. Tucker swore at him
and threatened to fire him.
Mr.. Morely, a former vice presi-
dent Of director Of the Inflated
auto company which planned to
produce q rear engine car, was
the Governments 24th witness in
the trial Of Tucker and seven as
sociates on charges Of mail fraud
and conspiracy.
Mr.. Morely said he and Fred
Rockelman, then executive vice
president and now defendant In
the case, had sought to learn how
the company spent some $780,
900 not specifically accounted for
In monthly balance sheets or ap-
proved by the Board of Directors.
He said he went to Mr.. Tucker
late In October, 1948, to find out
about the expenses.
Tucker called me a double
crossing --," Mr..
Morely testified. "He told me I
hadn't run my department
efficiently and he didn't want me
around any more.
II told him he could fire me as
vice president and director of pur-
chases, but I had been elected a
director by the stockholders and
I'd stay around as long as I

Religious Intolerance
Bars Closer Spanish
Ties, Robertson Says
BY the Associated Press

ROME, Nov. 18.- Senator
Robertson, Democrat, of Virginia
said yesterday religious intoler-
ance in Spain blocks closer Ameri-
can ties with the Franco regime.
Senator Robertson. a member
Of the Senate Appropriations
Committee, told a news confer
ence here:
II sincerely feel that if the
Spanish government would again
interpret the religious tolerance
section of its 1945 constitution as
It did between 1945 and 1947, it
would remove one of the road
blocks on the path to closer unity
between the United States and
Spain"
Quotes Constitution.
Mr.. Robertson, a Baptist, said
one section of Spain's 1945 con-
stitution provides a program of
religious tolerance. but couched
In ambiguous language"
For the first two years." he
added, "the Spanish government
interpreted this language in a
manner satisfactory to Pro-
testants. For the past two years,
however, terrific pressure has
been brought to bear on the
Spanish government to interpret
it differently.
"As a result" Senator Robert
son claimed, during these past
two years the Protestants in
Spain have not received the kind
Of treatment they had expected
and felt entitled to under the
new constitution"
Re- Established State Religion.
The Franco government re-
established Catholicism as Spain's
state religion. A vast majority of
the population is Catholic.
Mr.. Robertson and other men,
bers Of a Senate appropriations
subcommittee now touring Europe
are scheduled to leave Saturday
by plane for Madrid.
Senator, Chavez, Democrat, of
New Mexico, another member Of
the subcommittee, told reporters
he thought Spain should partici-
pate In Marshall Plan aid.
IF we are going to be con-
sistent in our fight against COM
munism," Senator Chavez de-
clared, certainly the one country
that started the fight should
participate in Marshall Plan aid
II 1t needs such help"

Defense Secretary Forrestal to-
day made a personal appeal to
5000 young physicians and den
lists who were given wartime draft
deferments to accept armed serv-
ices commissions to fill a critical
medical personnel shortage.
He told a news conference he

expense and had thus far given

Another 1000 were deferred so

Finnish Cabinet Crisis
Grows on Reports Of
Soviet Troop Moves
Opposition Chiefs Warn
Norwoy's Pro-Western
Stund Raises Perils
BY the Assoeidied Press

HELSINKI, Finland, Feb. 25.-
The threat of a cabinet crisis grew
today. Opposition party leaders
warned there is mounting danger
to Finland because of Norway's
pro- Western stand and demanded
that the government step down
in favor of a coalition.
A report that additional Rus
sian troops were moving toward
the Soviet Unions border with
Norway came from an authorita-
tive Finnish source. This source
said the movement was observed
last week end and apparently was
in connection with Norway's stand
in favor of the proposed Atlantic
Alliance. Finland's frontier touches
those of Russia and Norway in the
north.
Regime Still Unsteady.
Premier Karl A. Fagerholm' S
minority government. still in Of
fee by virtue of a two-vote mar
gin Wednesday. appeared to have
little chance to survive. Key
members of various parties also
dismissed the chance that Eager
holm himself might head q coali-
ton. although he seems willing to
do that.
All parties except Mr.. Eager
holm's ruling Social Democrats
have raised demands for a coali-
ton because of Norway's stand on
the Atlantic Pact.
The Social Democrats have only
81 of the 200 seats in Parliament.
The party is said to want to con-
tinue the one-party government
rather than risk losing influence
among the working class. More
over, some of its cabinet members
are loathe to resign.
The Popular Democrats (mostly
Communists) bitterly oppose MIR.
Fagerholm as pro- Western. The
conservative Agrarian Party is
against him as head of a coali-
ton. Between them the two
parties have 81 Parliament seats.
The Agrarians, the largest party.
holding Sc seats, feel entitled to
the premiership in a coalition.
Moved From Murmansk.
A high source. who would not
be quoted by name, told of the
Russian troop movements. He
gave no estimate Of the number
of troops, but said the men had
been moved close to Norway's
122-mile frontier from the Muir
mansk area.
Russia gained a common from
tier with Norway in the peace set
tlement with Finland in which
Finland ceded the Petsamo region
to the Soviet Union.
The informant said there was no
sign of similar troop movements
to the Finnish border. Norway
has a 450-mile border with Fin
land in the north, also.
