|srae|'s U. N. Delegate
Saws Arabs Are Rearminq

Charges of "feverish rearma-
ment' and hostile propaganda
against Israel" in the Arab states
were voiced last night by Aubrey
S. Eban. representative Of Israel
to the United Nations.
Speaking at the Town Hall lee
ture series in Constitution Hall,
Mr.. Eban hinted strongly that
Israel may present such charges
against the Arab states to the
U. N.
"The continued juxtaposition of
heavy rearmament with a refusal
to negotiate peace" the U. N. del
egate asserted, would so increase
tension in the Near East that
Israel would feel obliged to bring
the scrutiny of world opinion and
Of the highest international Or
gans to bear upon the current
policies of the Arab states"
Mr.. Eban added that Israel is
now attempting to clarity" the
situation with the governments
concerned.

Acc Official AssaiIs
Atomic War Scares,
Asks Medical Plans

An Atomic Energy Commission
official today criticized "the cold
war we seem to be waging against
our people" with warning of
super-bombs and archaeological
warfare.
Brig. Gen. James P. Cooney
chief Of the Aces Pathological
branch, told convention of path
ologists here that the people are
getting jittery over talk Of bombs
that will destroy the world and
bacteria that will kill every one. "
The off1cial said he feels doctors
can handle medical care problems
posed by such weapons, but that
whether we take the easy or the
hard way will depend on U.S."
The easy way, he said. is for
doctors to develop a civilian de-
tense plan for medical care needed
''in case of any catastrophe" not
only one involving warfare.
Gen. Cooney told the doctors
that because of overemphasis,
many people think of the atomic
bomb "as a radiation bomb
When an atom bomb bursts in the
air, however. he said, most deaths
result from blasts and burns.
After such an air burst, he de-
clared. doctors can enter devas-
tated areas within two minutes
without danger from radiation.
This means we must get in, get
control Of the fire situation, and
get the wounded out" he said. IF
we don't, there could be another
Hiroshima-and 1t isn't necessary. J."
Gen. Cooney spoke at the first
session Of two-day joint confer
ence of the Middle Eastern Re-
gion. College of American Path
ologistS; the Baltimore PATHOLOGY
cal Society. the Washington So
ciety of Pathologists, and the Med
ical Society's section on pathology
and laboratory medicine. The
conference is meeting at the So
ciety headquarters, 1718 M street

Attorney 10 Produce
Erickson Accountant; !;
Two Others Sought
BY the Associoted Press

NEW YORK. May 9.-Henry
(Andy) Pellino, accountant for
Frank Erickson. multi million
dollar bookie. will be produced at
the district attorneys Office Fri
day.
At the same time it was dis
closed that investigators conduct
ing an inquiry into Erickson's ac-
tivities were seeking two other
men closely identified with the
gambling figure.
The two were identified as Al
Levy described as a cashier for
Erickson, and William Twin
whose real name was said to be
William Fernbacher and who was
described as q "confidante" OF
Erickson.
Reported on Vacation.
A spokesman for the district
attorneys Office said it had been
informed by an attorney that he
would produce Pellino at noon
Friday. Pellino has not been seen
since the day before a raid on
Erickson's Park Avenue Office
Neighbors told investigators he
had gone on a vacation"
Erickson recently admitted be-
fore a Senate subcommittee that
he operated a multi million dollar
bookmaking business.
Meanwhile, it appeared that the
Federal Governments new coast
forecast foray into gang-busting
was going to be more of a survey
than a shooting war for the
present.
This was made clear yesterday
by the two United States attor-
neys in New York. Irving H. Say
pol and J. Vincent Keogh.
Fact-Finding Survey.
Both stressed the idea that the
Federal Investigations combined
operation of most of the Federal
investigating agencies-will be
mostly a fact finding business.
The thought behind the plan
is that single facts on. crime
seemingly insignificant locally,
may fit into larger pattern that
has national significance.
The two United States attor-
neys have a "gilt-edge" list. of
$50 underworld characters to in
vestigate as their part of the cam
paign. they said at a news con-
ference.
Joining with the Federal attor-
neys in the investigation are the
FBI, the Secret Service, the Mar
cotics Bureau, the Alcohol Tax
Unit. the Post Office, the Securi-
ties and Exchange Commission
and the Treasury's intelligence
unit, which handles tax matters.

directly to Indo-C China-none OF
it will be channeled through
France. Furthermore, little of the
aid will be economic.
Conversations already are un-
derway in Paris, Washington and
Saigon on employment of the al
lotment. it was reported.
Use of Aid Discussed.
Mr.. Schuman, it was learned
from other sources, assured Mr.
Acheson that France soon will re-
lease the three associated Indo-
Chinese states in the French
Union from supervision by the
French Colonial Ministry by Gre
ating a new ministry for 'com-
monwealth relations"
This will be done, it was said
as soon as domestic political con.
ditions permit the changeover.
Mr.. Schuman's main argument
on behalf of military aid was that
the Soviet orbit is now pressing
hard against and within Indo-
China's frontiers because the
guerrillas in the jungle now car
get aid from China's Communists
particularly since the Communist
capture of Hainan Island.
In statement Mr.. Acheson en-
phasized that the United States
expects a steadily increasing de-
gree of self-government for the
three Indo- Chinese regimes with
in the French Union.

tice Burton, with Justices Frank
furter and jackson dissenting,
overturned a United Ctates Court
of Appeals ruling in st. Louis that
wartime employees of several such
plants were not covered by the
Wage-hour law and, therefore,
could not sue for overtime pay.
Chief Justice Vinson read the
31-page finding that the nom
Communist oath provision does
not unduly infringe constitutional
guarantees of free speech.
-Four separate opinions thai
would fill four full pages in a
newspaper also were handed down
in that case. Justice Black dis
sented on the ground that the
decision conceivably could be used
against either the Democratic or
Republican Party. Justices Frank
furter and Jackson disSented in
part. Justices Douglas, Clark and
Minton took no part in the case.
Decision Leaves Problem.
The cases reached the Supreme
Court on appeal by the CIO
United Steel Workers and the C1O
American Communications Asso-
citation. Most national and local
union officers have filed such aff1-
davits within the last year, but
the final court test had been long
awaited even by labor leaders
who have been active in ridding
their organizations Of Commu-
niStS.
While the decision settled the
constitutional status Of the pro-
vision, it left the Justice Depart
ment with o problem. The NLRB
has turned over aff1davits signed
by some 10 persons it wants in
vestigated to determine whether
they falsely swore they were not
Communists.
Justice Department officials
said the snon-Communist oath
provision is in the present tense
and that successful prosecution of
a perjury charge would require
proof that a person was a Com
muniSt at the time he signed the
affidavit.
Taft BIames Justice Department.
Senator Taft. Republican, of
Ohio, co-author Of the law, told
reporters today that the Justice
Department and not the law is to
blame that there have been no
prosecutions for taking the oath
falsely.
"They don't want to prosecute, I"
he asserted. They don't want to
do anything against union leaders.
The whole Government has taken
the same attitude. President Tru-
man had that attitude against
John L. Lewis"
Senator Mcclellan, Democrat,
of Arkansas, suggested that the
oath provision be frightened to re-
quire union leaders to say whether
they ever were Communists.
In another action yesterday
the Supreme Court refused to
rule on legality of movie censor
ship in Memphis. renn., where
a municipal board of censors de-
clined to permit presentation OF
a picture called "Curley" because
it showed white and colored chill
dren occupying the same school
room.
