Union and Phone Company
Sign New WAGE Contract

The telephone operators union
and the Chesapeake & Potomac
Telephone Co. have signed a new
contract which shortens the time
necessary to attain the top wage
scale but continues the present
starting rate.
Telephone girls start at $50 a

of $50 a week after eight years
employment. Under the new con-
tract the $50 is reached after six
and half years.

drastic reductions because of the
previous exchange of demands
between Prague and Washington.
Espionage Is Charged.
Czechoslovakia, charging that
Americans have been involved in
espionage against the Communist
regime, last month ordered the
Prague and Brataslava STATS cut
from a total of rs to 26.
The American response on May
13 was to order a proportionate
reduction by the Czechs in this
country. The closing of the Cleve-
land and Pittsburgh Consulates
followed.
Last week Czechoslovakia de-
manded a further cut, to a maxi
mum of IL Americans and To-
cally employed aides.
The travel ban against the Ro-
manianS was announced yester-
day by Undersecretary Of State
Webb.
While he indicated there might
be still further reprisals in the

Adler
Continued From First Page.l

Greenwich Time, an afternoon
newspaper.
1t accused both Draper and Ad-
Ter of openly supporting" Com
munist-front organizations.
The wiry, red-haired Draper and
his harmonica playing concert
partner filed their suit the day
after their Greenwich concert.
All Property Attached.
Under Connecticut law, every
thing Mrs. Mccullough owned was
attached-that is, she was for
hidden to transfer or dispose of
any property pending the outcome
of the suit.
The case attracted Nation-w
attention. About SIG, 900 in con-
tributions was sent to Mrs. Nc
Cullough. wife of Time maga-
zine editor, from all parts of the
country. Draper and Adler lifted
the attachment on her property
before trial of the suit began last
month.
In the trial itself, Mrs. McCul-
Tough contended the entertainers
had no cause for action because
Cd she acted from a sense of
duty to her country and not from
malice. and (2) the charges she
made against Draper and Adler
were true.
Among the witnesses for Mrs.
Mccullough were two who have
played prominent role in Wash
ington Investigations of Commu-
mist activities-Louis Budenz, ex-
Communist official who now
teaches at Fordham University
and John Huber, former FBI un-
derground operative.
Both said Draper and Adler had
the reputation of serving Commu-
mist causes.
In addition, there was evidence
linking both entertainers with
various organizations which have
been cited as subversive by the
Attorney General, the House Com
mittee on Un-American Activities
or other Government bodies.
Draper and Adler testified that
they appeared at benefits for many
of these organizations and other
wise aided some of them. Each
denied, however. that he was a
Communist or that he knowingly
aided Communist causes.
