China 10 OK Formosa
|nquiryif U. n. Probes
Charge Against Russia
BY the Assoeiaied Press

TAIPE1. Formosa. Sept. g.
Chinese Nationalists, from all in.
dications. will allow the United
Nations to make a first-hand in
spection of Communist charges o1
an American invasion" of For
mosa only on one condition.
That Is for a U. N. commission
first-or at least simultaneously
to look into Nationalist charges o1
Soviet Russian aggression against
China.
These Nationalist charges are
to be pressed to the utmost at the
United Nations General Assembly
at Lake Success opening Septem-
ber 10. g
The Nationalists, it seems, are
determined to bar access to For
mosa to any U. N. commission in
vestigating solely the Chinese
Communist charges. h
Want Reds to Participate.
(Chinese Communists in an
official radio broadcast from
Peiping have announced that
unless Chinese Reds participate,
they do not want a U. N. COM
mission to investigate their
charges that United States
planes attacked Manchurian
territory. The broadcast was
heard in San Francisco by the
Associated Press.)
Unofficial but well-informed
quarters at Taipei say the Chang
Kai-shek government is consider
ing use of the veto in the Security
Council on Red China's charges
against the United States. The
charges are considered in Taipei
to be Soviet Russian propaganda
device.
1t also is reported that National
list Foreign Minister George Yeh
might not go to Lake Success after
all to head the Chinese delega-
ton at the General Assembly
Should Yeh remain in Taipei, the
Chinese delegation would be
headed by DR.. T. F. Tsiang, who
the Nationalists on the
Security Council.
Nothing Definite.
Yeh's secretary told the Asso-
ciated Press that nothing definite
had been decided and so far as he
knew the foreign minister would
leave for the United States in time
to head the delegation.
While the Nationalists feel o
Communist invasion of Formosa
this year is unlikely, they are
nevertheless worried over the
buildup the Reds are making.
Highly placed quarters COM
planned privately that since Presi-
dent Truman's June 81 ban on
Nationalist air and sea action
against the Red China mainland
the Communists have been able
to rebuild airfields. construct new
ones and make other unmolesteo
preparations for an invasion OF
Formosa.

They say that an attacking

against atomic attack by disper-
sion, unless strong allied ground

The combination of tactical

State S Motion 10 End
Butler Poll Tax Case
Arqued in Alexandra

A motion to dismiss a suit to
give q Negro the right to register
to vote in Virginia without pay
ment Of the poll tax was argued
in Federal District Court at Alex
andria today.
Mrs. Jesse Butler. Arlington, has
petitioned Judge Albert v. Bryan
for a mandamus to compel the
State Board Of Elections and the
Arlington County registrar. Mrs.
Mary Thompson. to register her.
She has not paid her poll tax.
One of her counsel is John Locke
Green, Arlington County Republi-
can treasurer. who has attacked
the poll tax for years and who at
one time sought to unseat the late
Senator Carter Glass with the
argument that Virginia was not
adequately represented in the SEN
ate during the legislators illness.
Punitive Damages Sought.
Associated with Mr.. Green are
Frank Ball. ST., and j. Foster Ha-
gan, both Of Arlington. State At
torney General j. Lindsay Almond
Jr., was an observer and his as
sistant. Walter E. Rogers, was de-
Tending the State. Mrs. Thomp-
son was represented by John w.
Jackson.
Mrs. Butler also seeks punitive
damages.
Mr.. Rogers argued that Federal
courts have declined to intervene
in questions involving conduct of
elections. ANY changes, he con-
tended. lay with the legislative and
executive branches of State gov
ernment. The issue, as he saw
it. was the validity of the State
constitution and statutes relating
to payment of a poll tax as a
prerequisite to voting.
Mr.. Jackson said the complaint
represents only an essay" on poll
taxes and that the allegations are
weak as water"
Commissioner Not Cited.
If, he continued. there existed q
conspiracy to deprive Negroes of
the vote by not assessing them for
a poll tax-as charged-then why
was not the Arlington commits
sioner of revenue. who makes the
assessments. named a defendant
in the suit?
THE complainant would rather
spend more than $50 to litigate
than $3.50 to vote" Mr.. Jackson
said. The poll tax is $1.50 a year
with a maximum of three years
assesSable.
Mr.. Green argued that the reg
istrar's refusal to qualify Mrs.
Butler was a violation of the 18th
Amendment to the Constitution
and an act of Congress of 1870
forbidding abridgement of suf-
frage because of race.
Judge Bryan asked all sides to
submit memoranda within 10 days
and indicated that he would ask
that two additional judges sit
with him when the case is heard.
