CATHOLIC SENATOR

WASHINGTON, May IL - R =
Senator Chavez D-NM charged
in the Senate today that ex-Com-
munist Louis Budenz has used the
cross of the Roman Catholic church
"as a club" in the Senate Com
munist inquiry.
Nothing that he himself is a
Catholic, Chavez bitterly assailed
Budenz' roles in the investigation OF
charges by Senator Mccarthy
(R-Wis) that the State Department
harbors Communists.
p He said of Budenz:
"He has been speaking not just
as a private citizen. Budenz has
been speaking with special emphasis
as a Catholic, investing his appear
ances and utterances with an added
sanctity by virtue Of the fact that
he recently went through the forms
of conversion to Catholicism.
my ancestors brought the cross
to this hemisphere. Louis Budenz
has been using this cross as club
Budenz was managing editor OF
the Daily Worker until 1945 when
he renowned Communism and re-
joined the Catholic Church. He now
is on the faculty of Fordham Uni
versity, New York, Jesuit school.

DE N MS
ORDERED
TO JAIL
Communist Leader Sen
fenced for Contempfof
Congress in 1947

WASHINGTON, May IL = tR -
Communist leader Eugene Dennis
today was ordered to Jail immedi-
ately for contempt of Congress in
1947.
Federal Judge David A. Pine di-
rected that Dennis, Secretary Gem
eral of the American Communist
party, start at once to serve a one
year prison sentence.
Dennis had asked the court to
delay the commitment until June
%. On that date the Court OF APP
peals in New York is scheduled to
hear an appeal by Dennis and 10
other Communists convicted OF
conspiring to advocate the over
throw of the government.
In 1947, Dennis was convicted by
4 Federal Court here on charges OF
contempt growing out of his refusal
TO testify before the House I'M
American. Activities Committee.
Dennis appealed the conviction
The Supreme Court upheld it last
May /.
While the appeal in the contempt
case was pending, the government
lad brought the case against Dem
mis- and 10 other Communist lead
ers in New York.
Dennis was given a five-year sent
ence on his conviction in New York
He is free under bond pending hear
ng of the appeal.
Dennis acted as his own attorney
n the New York case. Joseph Forer
his attorney in the contempt case
argued to Judge Pine that Dennis
hould have chance to prepare his
appeal in the New York case and
FOR that reason should not go to
Jail now.
Forer said it would be unfair
| to commit Dennis now because OF
he fact that he will represent
himself.
Judge Pine told him:
IF I followed your suggestion a
criminal could stay out of Jail for
ever by committing another crime
and then representing himself"

RESTRICTIONS ON
West GERMANY
MAY BE EA5ED
Three Foreign Ministers
Discuss Proposal al
London Conference
(Ry the Associated Press

The Big Three Foreign Ministers
at their London conference today
discussed plans to give the West
German government fuller powers
The, Foreign Ministers OF the
United States. Britain and France
considered easing occupation re-
strictions on Germany during a dis
cussion of their overall problem
how to bolster Western defenses
against the threat of Communist
expansion.
The plan, presented by American
and British delegations, would give
the Bonn government full diplo-
matte voice abroad. 1t would give
the Germans power to issue visas
and control their customs.
The plan also would unfreeze i'm
portant internal controls, leaving
the Bonn government fairly free
to rule it's people. However, the
Allied High Commissions would re-
tain the power to veto legislation
conflicting with the international
aims of the occupation.
The French delegation was less
inclined to relax these controls.
A communique issued yesterday
said the basic problem is how to
step up plans for the defense OF
Western Europe without destroying
the two-year-old United States
plan for European economic recov-
cry.
The Big Three foreign ministers
today agreed on general policy
of incorporating Western Germany
into Western Europe. economically
and politically.
No details were given but it was
understood to be continuation OF
present policy projected into the
future.
The ministers also issued a for
NAL statement condemning the Sow
liet Union for its announcement
that it has repatriated all German
prisoners OF war.
The ministers have agreed that
they will take all possible steps
. to obtain information bearing on
, the fate of prisoners OF war and
civilians not yet repatriated from
the Soviet Union and to bring abb
out repatriation in the largest pos
sible number of cases.
The ministers also promised tc
do what they could about repatriat-
ing Japanese prisoners OF war.

FEWER HUNTERS
GOT MORE DUCKS
IN Essays FWS

WASHINGTON May 12-Rt-The
Fish and Wildlife Service estimated
today that hunters killed 1880, 900
ducks and geese last fall. 500, 900
more than in 1913.
Albert NJ Day, director OF the
service, said liberalized hunting
regulations accounted for the in
crease. The number of hunters in
the field in 1949, he said, was
1,676, 400, about 10 percent fewer
than in 1913.
I'm addition to an increase OF 10
days in the length of the shooting
season. hunters had greater hunting
opportunity last fall because large
flocks were concentrated in the
steadily diminishing areas still suit
able for migratory waterfowl" Day
said.
ALSO, millions of ducks and
geese remained in the United States
during the mild fall instead of win
tering in Mexico or other southern
points, which is their normal pro-
cedure."

RUSS FUR IMPORTS
up 80o%, KILL OFF
FARMS, TRAPPING

WASHINGTON, May IL = ZAP -
Rep. Tollefson (R-Wash) told the
House during discussion OF Russian
imports that few years ago there
we're 200 fox fur farms in Wash
ington State while today there ass
only three.
He said imports of Russian flrs
have increased 800 percent in re-
cent years.
There are some 400 mink farms
producing furs and nobody knows
how long they will last" Tollefson
continued. "In Alaska the fur trap
ping industry has dropped consid-
erably, largely because of the i'm
portation of Russian furs."
He said Russian furs make up 80
percent of the total fur imports
and because they are produced by
slave labor they can undersell any
fur on the market and control the
raw fur markets"

RED RIVER
LEVEL IS
UNCHANGED
We Are Still in Danger
Is Warning Issued in
Greater Winnipeg

WINNIPEG, Man., May 12-tR-
The level of the Red River remained
unchanged for six hours today but
a high Army official warned resi-
dents of Greater Winnipeg I'VE are
still in danger"
Brig. j. w. Brice, Deputy Army
Commander of Red River flood re-
lief, said there is mo proof that the
peak river level has been reached.
He urged those who were planning
to join the stream of refugees out
of the stricken area to proceed i'm
mediately with their plans" The
river was stationary for six hours
at 297 feet.
There were light early morning
showers-.07 of an inch in the six
hours ending at a.m.-but the
weatherman said that wouldn't
complicate the situation.
The Red River at Winnipeg was
at its highest in more than CEN
fury. One-eighth or more OF the
70-square-mile metropolitan area,
and $40 square miles of Southern
Manitoba, were under water. The
Winnipeg Tribune estimated that
10000 residents of the flooded areas
had taken refuge in the twin cities.
Authorities said unless more rain
or snow fell-and that was not eX-
pected-any further increase in the
river level should be small and OF
short duration.
The threat remained critical for
several residential areas.

The W ashington
Merry Go Round
By DREW PEARSON

lcopyright. 1850. py Bell Syndicate. Incl
WASHINGTON-One of the most
significant primaries in the country
takes place in Pennsylvania next
week. And long-range political OBJ
servers believe it may help to de-
eide three things:
/. Whether the Republicans can
cast off the old-fashioned leader
ship which lost them five straight
Presidential elections.
2. Whether the Republicans can
elect President in 1852.
8. And to some extent the Penn
sylvania primary may help to pick
Presidential nominee for 1852.
The issue in Pennsylvania is not
whether Jim Duff, scrappy red
headed, liberal governor, will get
the senatorial nomination. OF that
he is almost certain. The real is
sue Is whether the famed Grundy
machine and the Pennsylvania
Manufacturers Association, which
for years have exploited the states
natural resources and the states
political vote, can be unseated.
That's what COP leaders in
other states will be watching. For
if Grundyism is definitely and
categorically defeated in Pennsly-
vania, then it may mean a con-
tagious, progressive turning point
in the Republican party.
