British Agreement to Give U. S. Fuchs
Doto Reported. Page All
Fuchs sufficient for it's avowed
purpose of probing to the bottom
of the atomic spy situation drama
tized by the arrest and conviction
of Britain's A-bomb scientist.
There is no doubt, however,
that the Fuchs case remains a sore
point in British-American rela-
tionS and continues to block all
progress toward reviving the war
time atomic partnership. which
those two countries and Canada
shared.
British Cleared Him.
1t was as a result of that COL
laboration that Fuchs came to
this country to work with other
scientists cleared by the British
government during the war-and
helped to produ.e the atomic
bomb even while informing Rus
sian Communist agents of what
was going on. He made another
trip here about two years after
the war;,
These facts plus Fuchs subse-
quent arrest, confession and con-
viction in Britain-he is an ex-
patriate German-shook the very
foundations of American-British
cooperation on any future atomic
partnership.
The FBI, according to informa-
ton which came out at the time.
had hand in breaking the Fuchs
case, but after the original facts
were developed, chiefs of the
American security force evidently
felt they were not sure of OBJ
tanning all the information neces-
sary from Fuchs to give leads on
possible other Russian spies.
Wanted Free Talks With Him.
In addition to requesting full in
formation from the British on the
case, therefore, it appears today
that the United States had also
asked for the right of unrestricted
access of it's agents to Fuchs with
full opportunity to question him
on his operations and connec-
tions.
The British apparently were re-
luctant to accede to this request
for reasons which do not show
on the surface. But they now
repeatedly have informed the
American Government that FBI
agents can question Fuchs under
certain conditions These condi-
tions are not known outside Off
cial quarters.
The British Embassy, the State
Department and the Federal Bu-

Majority Leader Lucas OF Illl-
nois warned the Senate today
that if the United States turns
back to isolationism it will have
to "live in a garrison state" and
spend more than $25 billion a
year for defense.
With voting due to start this
afternoon on a score of amend
ments to cut the $3.3 billion for
eign economic aid bill, Senator
Lucas called this economic aid
"our greatest asset at the peace
table"
Nevertheless, there were strong
indications the Senate will make
some changes, including the pos
sibility of a $3.50 million cut ir
the $3.1 billion earmarked fol
Marshall Plan help to Western
Europe.
Overseas PeriIs Cited.
Senator Lucas said he wished
those who favor curtailing eco
nomic aid would tell the country
whether they also want to aban-
don Berlin to the Communists
bring American troops home anc
pull out of Japan. If those steps,
were taken, he said. you can gel
ready to spend not $13.9 billior
a year. but $25 or maybe $50 bill
lion for national defense"
Answering Senator KEN, Repub
Ican, of Missouri, who has pro-
tested American aid to socialism
in England, Senator Lucas sale
nothing is ever said about "Nor.
way, Sweden and Denmark, which
have more socialism today thar
Great Britain"
Senator Lucas said the reason i!
that there are more Scandinay-
ians who vote in Illinois, Missouri
and other parts of the Midwest.
Spending Test Is Near.
The balloting on the size of th'
Marshall Plan fund today ma.
throw some light on whether th'
economy advocates have enough
support to reduce spending gen
orally when the big omnibus
budget bill reaches the Senate ir
about two weeks.
The House is still struggling
with the 1924 billion omnibus
measure, and up to now the econ
omy bloc has lost ground. Th'
bill carries more now than wher
it started.
AS in the House, the Senate
drive to reduce foreign economic
aid is mainly on the Republican
side of the political aisle. With
a party lineup of 81 Democrat.
and AZ Republicans, the outcome
of today's battle depends on how
many conservative Democrat!
support reductions.
COnnally Claims Votes.
Senator Connally, Democrat, O.
Texas, in charge of foreign aid
said he has the votes to preven
a cut 'if they all show up" HI
predicted if there is. any reduc.
tion it will be the $3.50 millior
cut. the House already has ap.
proved.
Senator Bridges of New Hamp.
shire, top-ranking Republican or
the Appropriations Committee
said he is pretty sure" of the
$3.50 million reduction goins
through, and added "a great many
people believe a $500 million cut

Hebrew in the
American Public
Schools
BY JUDAH LAPSoN

Copyright, 1850. Jewish Telegraphic
Agency, Incl
With New York City now mar
king the completion of twenty
years since the opening of He
brew classes in the public schools,
it may be fitting to assay the pro-
gress made not only in New York
but nationally, for this period has
witnessed similar attempts in
many of our leading cities.
The opening of the public
schools to Hebrew instruction
brought glowing hopes, BODIED
the promise of a pioneer educa-
tional development, whose intrin-
sic values to the Jewish commun-
ity could scarcely be overrated.
What have been the actual a.
chievements and how does the
future look?
In the past twenty years, more
than $4,000 students have studied
Hebrew in the New York City
public schools. This fall finds
more than 1000 students enrolled
in the public high schools and
municipal colleges in New York
City. These are distributed a.
mong thirty-six high schools and
junior high schools and four city
colleges. In addition, there are
about 300 students taking modern
Hebrew in the non-municipal
colleges and universities of the
metropolis.
Outside of New York, six other
cities, including Boston, Newark,
Pittsburgh, Rochester, st. Louis
and Long Beach (N.Y.) offer
courses in modern Hebrew in
their public schools to combined
register of about $50. About 700
colleges, universities and profess
sional schools throughout the
country have recognized modern
Hebrew for admission purposes.
But outside of the New York
scene, the picture is more that of
an abstract victory than a con-
crete gain. AS against the 1000
students availing themselves of
the Hebrew courses in the public
school system of New York City,
the register of $50 students in the
six cities mentioned pales into
insignificance.

prices on the military defense
budget. Representative Sheppard,
Democrat. OF California said that
lack of price controls retroactive
to June already had cost the de-
fense rearmament program $50
billion. He is vice chairman of
the House Armed Services Com
mittee.
And the Senate Appropriations
Committee issued a statement
sharply criticizing the coaring
prices of rubber tires, uniforms,
parachutes and other items that
make up the military budget.
The committee estimated in
f1ation has cut the value of de-
tense appropriations since start
of the Korean war by about SO
billion. 1t told the armed serv-
ices that contracts should be let
at once and delivery speeded to
avoid additional price increases.
Program Hit by Both Sides.
Both labor and industry also
were sharply critical of the Gov
ernment's anti-inf1ation program
based on voluntary compliance
and mandatory rollback orders in
selected industries. Organized
labor said it wants across-the-
board price curbs. a change in
the law TO permit tight controls
on food and rents and a gradual
approach to allow wages to catch
higher prices.

{ Initiation Control Plans
Face Examination by
Congress Tomorrow

The Governments imitation con-
troll program. already under heavy
fire from labor and industry
comes up for close examination by
Congress late today.
The Wage Sterilization Board
meanwhile, was laying plans to
hold automobile industry wages in
line, a companion move with the
five-day-old order freezing and
rolling back car prices to the De-
cember l level.
1t was understood that the wage
board, which heard day-long testi-
mony yesterday from car manu-
facturers and the unions. will tel
the industry to hold down wages
and salaries until March l, termi-
nation date of the car price freeze
This would give the board time
to draft more permanent wage
formula.
New Officials to Testify.
The congressional inquiry into
the Governments whole price
wage control program will be
conducted by the Senate-H House
Committee on Defense Mobiliza-
ton.
This watchdog" group sum-
moned Charles E. Wilson, new
head of the Office of Defense Mo-
billzation, for questioning at 4:3O
pm. today. 1t also expects to
hear, probably tomorrow, Stabili-
zation Director Alan Valentine and
Price Director Michael C. Disable
Most of the criticism in Con-
gress was along the line that the
Government was moving too
slowly to impose tight controls on
prices and to clamp accompanying
lids on wages as required by the
Defense Production Act.
Valentine Asks Price Notices.
In another of the gradual steps
to hold down prices, Mr.. Valen-
tine asked $50 large corporations
to give the Government at least
seven days notice before raising
prices of any major products. The
producers represent nearly every
industry except automobiles.
Mr.. Valentine said this would
give his agency time to study the
price increase proposals and de-
eide if they were justified. If
the boosts are found to be un-
justified the Government could
ask or order their abandonment.
The Valentine telegre ms asked
the companies to give advance
notice of price increases on any
line in which they do an annual
business of $500,000 or more.
The Government did not reveal
the names of the big companies,
but three of them-International
Harvester. Socony Vacuum Oil
and Sinclair Oil-announced they
would comply. International Har-
vester said it was withdrawing
