Louis Lyons, curator of the Me

fundamental problem of journal

Secretary of State has done a real
good job since the Korean war

His mistakes are Of the past
but they are going to hang on to
his coat tails for a long time"
Senator Flanders said.
Senator Knowland's opposition
to the proposal to provide about
$85 million in economic aid to
Yugoslavia was not shared by
Senator Flanders. The latter said
he believed it was a good idea for
this country to promote every
opening We can find in Communist

human contacts are involved"
President Truman has asked

drought-stricken Yugoslavia. The
Communist government of Mar

Comparing the administration S
attitude toward Yugoslavia and
toward the Chinese Nationalists
on Formosa, Senator Knowland
said:
The Republic Of China offered
33 5000 troops to support collective
security in Korea. Yugoslavia
has offered no troops.
The Republic of China has
voted consistently with free ma
tions in the United Nations rela-
tive to aggression in Korea. Yugo-
slavia has seldom done so.
There Is freedom OF religion,
press and speech in Formosa.
This does not exist in Yugoslavia.

Cut in Rehearsals Wanted.
He said the companies had Of

or more on 15-minute shows, $40,
including six hours rehearsal;
Commute show, S125, including
IA hours rehearsal; hour shows,
SITS, including 24-hours rehears-

The union, he said, wants to
cut rehearsal time to five, 10 and
20 hours, respectively, with IS an
hour for extra rehearsal time.
Mr.. Heller said both sides
agreed on pay for actors speak
ing less than five lines; l5-min-
ute shows, $50. with five hours
rehearsal; half-hour shows $62.50,
with seven hours rehearsal, and
hour shows, $75, with nine hour

He said the union wanted re-

CORES cut to three and six hours,
respectively.
He made the following COM

at a peaceful solution"
He said the other four took
an "adamant position" that left
the TV Authority with no other
recourse" than to strike.
These four companies issued a
joint statement expressing regret
at the suspension of negotia-
tions and declaring they made
what they consider generous
proposals covering wage, hours
and working conditions for the
performers"
The companies said union pro-
posals led them to conclude that
unreasonable and harsh penal
ties would be placed on an in
dustry that is still in the devel-
opment stage"
They said the union demands
would place such burdens on ad-
vertisers and networks that "a
number of important programs
might be forced off the air.
Movie Restriction Demanded.
Mr.. Heller said a major issue
was a union demand for a clause
restricting the reuse OF kinescope
programs (films taken of original
shows.
He said such reuse reduced
employment in the industry. The
union insisted. he said, that per-
formers be paid their original fee
every time a program was repeated
in film from an area where it al
ready was telecast.
Mr.. Heller said the union also
wanted the same pay-scale for
commercial and sustaining pro-
grams. He said the networks Of
fered IS per cent of the CONNER
cial rate for sustaining programs,
which are sponsored by the net
works themselves.

Sees Discrimination.
Many of the witnesses who have
testified before the House COM
mittee during four days Of public
hearing, emphasized that the
administrations proposal, unless
modified, would discourage and
work a hardship on new enter
prises. Mr.. Reed took the same
position and said:
Under the Presidents proposal
productive enterprises with the
same amount Of income would pay
entirely different amounts of tax.
This is obviously fragrant dis
elimination"
The New Yorker said his propo-
sal would not result in the
thousands of hardship cases en-.
titled to relief" that would occur
under the Administration propo-
sal. In addition, he added, his
plan, unlike the Presidents recon-
mendation. would not bring high
er costs to the consumers of basic
serYlces-such as gas, heat, light,
water and transportation.
lnflationary Effect Charged.
After three days of public hear
ings IL which witnesses from in
dustry, labor and commerce have
testified Mr.. Reed continued, "it
is perfectly clear that the enact
ment Of Mr.. Truman'S proposals
would cut the heart out of the
productive capacity Of our coun-
try and seriously impede our de-
fenSe program.
MY proposal. on the contrary,
would permit our economy to ex-
pand and at the same time pre-

tax burden without establishing a
tax barrier against our produc-
tive growth
Opposition of retailing, hotel.

the Administrations proposed tax
program was voiced by witnesses

foreign policies and "re-examine'
them. He compared them to q
, farmer who pulls up his crops te
see if they are growing. In an
obvious reference to Senator Taft
he said these 're-examinists'
seemed the same to him as isola-
tionists.
Senator Taft. in Cincinnati,
had no comment.
Ferguson Blasts Acheson.
Senator Ferguson told a re-
porter Mr.. Acheson appears to
believe that anyone who differs
from him on foreign policy or
seeks to find out the facts behind
decisions is an isolationist. The
Michigan Senator said this won't
deter him and others in seeking
this information.
Il regret the administration
defense of its foreign policy has
degenerated to name calling
Senator Ferguson said.
This. leads to the conclusion
that the secretary's conception OF
bipartisan policy is his own policy.
In contrast there are others of
us who believe bipartisanship
means constructive cooperation
in the formation of policy as well
as its execution and that only
that kind of bipartisan policy can
serve the Nations best interests "
Senator Flanders, who has sup
ported major administration for
eign policy moves in the past,
sided with Senators Ferguson and
Taft in calling for new look at
American commitments abroad.
Senator Flanders said the elec-
ton results indicate there is 60
ing to be a re-eXamination Of for
eign policy by Congress"
THAT is just simply one of the
facts of life and the Secretary Of
State had better take cognizance
of it," the Vermont Senator said.
II shall be 're-examinist'-if
that is what Mr.. Acheson wants to
call us-because I think the people
made it clear that is what they
want.

setting of the program for Europe

Permit Crime Reports Here During Strike

When the television network
strike starts today, Washington
outlets of the three affected net
works were confident that TV
screens here would suffer few if
any blackout periods-for the
present, at least.

casting Systems outlet here, and

parently based this confidence on
the parent networks ability to

here, announced last night there

be called. He added that the

ed network shows drop out.
The National Broadcasting Co.'S
station WNBW, is not affected by
the strike.
Too Early for Planning.
Spokesman for all three sta
tions agreed last night that it
was still too early to know Just
how normal TV operating hours
may be maintained should strike
become prolonged.
Shows originating locally for
non-netWork distribution will not
be affected by developments in the
network centers. Likewise, pro-
grams involving non-professional
performers will still 60 over the
network.
The original WTOP listings for
this afternoon, for example, are
expected to remain unscathed by
strike since all either originate
here, or involve network non-
professionals. From $50 pm. to
l1:15 pm. however, network
movies are the only apparent So
luton.
The programs for WMAL-TV
today are predominantly local.
with a couple of exceptions like
the Paul Whiteman show and
Super Circus.
Local Programs Will Fill Gap.
Immediate prospects for the
WTTG scheduling hinged on the
networks ability to get together
enough movies to fill a few Sum
day evening gaps. It was expected
that a large number of local pro-
grams. and sporting events woud
substantially take care Of the
weekday scheduling.
WNBW faces no problem now
since the network still is nego-
tiating with the performers union.
