shaping up plans to take an ac-
tive role in the campaign to oust
the Nationalist Chinese and seat
Red China in the United Nations.
The campaign is headed by
U. N. Secretary General Trygve
Lie as a common sense" means
of getting Russia to end the boy

organs in anger over the China
representation question.
Mr.. Lie announced at Lake Sue
cess last night that he is return
ing to Europe shortly to make a

visit the, summer session of the
Economic and Social Council in
Geneva.
The decision of Britain's new
policy may emerge at the Geneva
meeting If Russia or her satellites
again challenge the right of the
Nationalists to sit for China.
In the past Britain has alb
stained in votes on the China
question although the British rec
ognized the Red regime at Peiping
last January after severing rela-
tlons with Chang Kai-Shek.

the presence in the restricted resi-
Dental area of what was termed

eign visitors. They said they
feared it would depress property
values. and some said they were
disturbed by the noise of guests
arriving late at night in taxicabs
Chisman Hanes, attorney fol
the committee, declared he did not
believe the house was a detriment
to the neighborhood and that the
service it rendered far outweighed
any possible detriment
The board took the committee s
application for a variance to the
zoning regulations under advise
ment.
The board also took under con-
Slderation ten cases in which ex-
ceptions were sought by residents
in the first block of Tuckerman

Unemployment compensation
One controversial amendment

the power of the Secretary OF
Labor to withhold unemployment
compensation funds from the

are governed by State laws, sub

The Secretary may withhold un-
employment tax funds if he be-
lieves a State law falls short OF
Federal standards.
The amendment curtailing this
authority grew out of dispute

Agent lmpersonator
Awaits Sentencing

A man convicted yesterday is
awaiting sentence in District
Court on two charges of falsely
representing himself as a naval
intelligence agent.
The defendant, Herman Axel-
bank. 49, of New York, told a
State Department employe he had
$12, 900 worth of microfilm SNUG
gled from behind the Iron Cur
tain. Some of the film, authorities
said, was represented by Axel-
bank as dealing with Russian
handling of prisoners.
Later Axelbank said the film
was cut from old newsreels and
actually had cost him SITS.
The indictment, containing two
counts, did not accuse him of ac-
tually offering the film for sale,
but only of representing himself
as an agent for naval intelligence.
The representations, it was
charged. were made to Perry
Laukhuff of the State Depart
ment's German Political Affairs
Office.
Axelbank. also said to have
been known as Carl Norman, was
convicted by a District Court jury.
He was prosecuted by Assistant
United States Attorney Arthur j.
Mclaughlin.
Judge Jennings Bailey, who
presided at the trial, did not set
a date for sentencing. The maxi
mum possible sentence Axelbank
could receive on the two charges
is from two to six years in prison
and fines totaling $4,000.
