By the A,soe;oted pre.,

DETROIT, Feb. 27.-To hold

cided long ago, you need money.
So, Potter admitted to police
Saturday, he broke into about

He told officers after his ar
rest he felt he needed money to
keep his friends-about 500 of
them and all male-and spent
nearly all his loot on gifts for
them.
BURGLARY seemed the easiest
way to get money" Potter said.

BY the Assoeieisd Press

HOBOKEN, N. J.. Feb. 27.-
Long argument by minority groups
,, at special meeting Of United
States Steel Corp. stockholders to-
day delayed for more than: two
hours a vote on employe pensions
and insurance.
The spending of an extra $67,-
100000 annually for benefit pro-
grams was a part of a company
settlement with the United Steel
workers of America, CIO, at the
end of a 42-day strike last Novem-
ber.
About 800 stockholders were on
hand as the special meeting
opened at 10:30 am.
Two proposals by James Fuller
of Hartword. Conn. a minority
stockholder, were overwhelmingly
defeated by voice votes.
He proposed that no money
should be paid into pension funds
in any year in which the net profit
OF the company was, less than one
half Of the amount paid out in
dividends in .1949. !:
J, Irving Olds. board chairman,
explained that was contrary to
the companys agreement with the
union. ~.
Mr.. Fuller then proposed no
payment in any year in which
there was a net loss.

posals were turned down voting

New 1urbojet in Fighter
Has Power Of Big Enqine

EAST HARTFORD, Conn, Feb.
27.-The United States now puts
as much power in a single-engine
fighter as is used to drive q B-29
Superfortress bomber.
This was disclosed Jointly by
the Air Force and the Navy at a
weekend press showing of the
new Pratt & Whitney J-48 Turbo-
Wasp jet engine.
The engine has a normal rated
top output of $3.50 pounds of
thrust. making it the most power
full one flying in the United States.
Boosters make more than 5000
pounds available for emergency
bursts of power. A pound of
thrust equals one horsepower
when the airplane is going 375
miles an hour.
The J-48 is flying in a Navy
fighter. the Grumman F9F-5
Panther, and new Air Force
fighter, the North American F.
93A. The engine will go into full
production soon for use in both
types.

karpe Solution Doubted,
Suicide Is Ruled Out
AY the Associated Press

PARIS, Feb. 27.-The mysteri-
Gus death of Capt. Eugene S
Karpe probably will never be
solved" an American military
official said today. He ruled out
suicide, however.
Capt. Karpe. American naval
attache at Bucharest. Romania,
was killed last week when he fell
or was thrown from a train, in a
tunnel at Salzhurg. Austria
The official said: 1T is difficult
to say he was murdered because
none Of his official papers nor
money was missing. At the same
time it is hard to-, say he could
have fallen. The only thing we
are positive is that he did not
drink and did not commit suicide. /"
Investigation of Capt. Karpe' s
death switched back from Paris to
Vienna. Two investigators came
to Paris to question the, car porter
who serviced Capt. Karpe's car
and a young American student
who had dinner with the captain
the day he was killed.
Neither shed any light what
soever on the mystery" the Army
source said -. :,
Capt. Karpe was d close friend
of Robert A.. yogeler, 4 American
businessman, who was sentenced
to Is years in prison last week by
a Hungarian court on espionage
charges. ~ =

Refuses to Cross
AS the trial got underway again,
Mr.. Neuberger refused to cross
examine Government witnesses on
the grounds that he was not suffi-
ciently acquainted with the back
ground of the case. Judge Ryan
told him that all Government
witnesses may be recalled for
cross-examination after the prose-
cution rests its case if the defense
so desires.
Two FBI agents, Daniel Guarde
and John j. Ward. told of trail
ing Gubitchev and Miss Coplon
from midtown New York to
Greenwich Village on the night
of their arrest on March 4.
Mr.. Ward said he boarded a
subway train behind Miss eoplon
and Gubitchev. They eluded him
by dashing through the subway
doors just before they closed, he
said. The couple were found
about Is minutes later walking
together in Greenwich Village.
-, Tells of Policeman.
Mr.. Pomerantz drew from Mr..
Ward an admission that police
man approached the automobile
in which three Federal agents
were trailing Miss Coplon and
Gubitchev shortly before they
boarded the subway. The officer
turned away when the agents
identified themselves, he said.
: Mr.. Pomerantz sought to show
that Agent Ward had never told
any one else of the encounter with
the policeman, but Judge Ryan
refused to allow that line of ques-
tioning. Mr.. Pomerantz later told
the policeman incident
is critical" to the defense because
it supports Gubitchev's contention
that he was aware he was being
followed. Only Gubitchev could
have told him of the inciden5,
Mr.. Pomerantz said, since Mr..
Ward did not mention it in any
previous court proceedings.

Spy Trial

Evening star., 1950-02-27

after Federal mediators failed to
win agreement on a new work
contract between the union and
the mine operators.
One of the witnesses called by
the Government in the contempt
case is John Owens, secretary
treasurer of the UNIV. Judge
Keech recessed the trial when he
was told Mr.. Owens would be
unable to appear because he was
taking part in the contract talks.
The Government was repre-
sented in the case by a battery
of attorneys headed by Assistant
Attorney General H. Graham
Morrison.
The union is charged specifical-
ly with failing to comply with a
strike restraining order issued 16
days ago by Judge Keech.
Mr.. Lewis. who was fined an
aggregate of 100000 on the two
past occasions. was not a de-
fendant today. Government pro-
secutors held that he, at least for
the present. was clear of con>
tempt, because he twice ordered
the miners to end their strike.
In the coal fields, the miners
were holding to the position that
nothing short of a new contract
would send them back to work.
Over the country the fuel short
age was becoming more serious
hourly with much of the Nation
in the grip of a cold wave. The
number Of workers made idle by
the coal strike approached the
100000 mark.
For a time last night it ap-
peared the Government mediators
would be successful in settling the
strike before the trial.
At one point Mr.. Cole emerged
to tell reporters the talks had
raised more hope than ever be-
fore" of a settlement Of the nine
month-old contract dispute.
They're working-really work
ing" he said.
Operators Deny Optimism.
But hours passed and nothing
more happened. When the talks
broke up after midnight, Mr.. Cole
had lost some of his optimism.
They really negotiated on
every point" he said. but they
could not reach agreement" 4
Some of the operators later
denied that they actually were
very close to settling the differ
ences over wages and welfare fund
payments with the miners. Mr..
Lewis wants a wage increase of
IS cents a day and boost in well
fare payments of Is cents per ton
of coal. The miners now get
$14.05 a day and the welfare
royalty is 20 cents per ton.
In another development on the
coal front, Senator Murray. DEM
ocrat, of Montana said the Cows
ernmenJ eventually may have to
buy and permanently operate the
mines to achieve lasting peace |
and economic stability.
Morse Opposes Naturalization.
But Senator Morse, Republican,
of Oregon said naturalization Of
the industry would be "a bad mis-
take-a step down the road to
state socialism" .....
Senator Murray told a reporter
that in his opinion the only
choices are Cd naturalization or
CD creation of Federal commits
sion to control the production of
coal.
He added that some thought
should be given to shutting down
inefficient mines.
Senator Murray said that OBJ
viously no contribution to solving
the current mine dispute would
be made either by naturalization
of the industry or creation of
Federal regulatory commission.
Senator Morse, In objecting to
naturalization of the mines, said
the Government instead should
set up board of experts to study
what he called the economic ills
of the coal industry.
