East Reich Reds S
Foreign Minister
Reported Held
Aides of Dertinger
Seized as Western
Espionage Agents
BY The Assoeioted Press


BERLIN, Feb. 1.-THE British
controlled newspaper Die Welt
said today that East Germany's
foreign minister. George Dert-
niger, is held by Communist police
under house arrest.
Dertingers arrest, Die Welt
said, followed police seizure this
week of his personal Office as
sistant, his chief of protocol and
his girl secretary as agents for
the American and British secret
service"
A member of the Christian
Democrat Party, Dertinger has
orally supported the Communist
line OF the East German govern
ment to the limit. When he was
absent from two sessions this week
of the Volkskammer east Ger
man Parliament), officials said he
was Ill from heart attack.
Die Welt said Communist Wal
ter Ulbricght. the acting Prime
Minister of the Soviet zone re-
gime, was directing the investiga-
ton of Dertinger and his staff.
Documents Taken From Files.
All documents in the files OF
Dertinger's Office and at the
homes of his aides under arrest
had been seized. it added.
Die Welt said Dertinger's arrest
occurred three days ago on sus-
picion of "neglecting his respon-
sibility as a minister"
The paper said East German
government circles nevertheless
expected him to resume his po-
litical career and to continue to
pressure his Christian Democratic
Union to follow the Communist
line.
The West Berlin Tagesspiegel
reported Gen. VASTLY Chuikoy
Soviet chief of East Germany, had
lodged the gravest complaint
against Dertinger. The paper said
Chuikov accused him of letting
news leak out of Dertinger'S talks
this winter with Soviet Foreign
Minister Andrei Y. vishinsky.
Dertinger is the second cab
met minister to come under a
reported cloud since the East Ger
man government was formed by
Soviet decree last October. Prime
Minister Otto Grotewohl, a So
cialist turned Communist, has
been on a mysterious sick leave
for more than a month.
Until Communist agents began
ransacking Dertinger's office, he
had been touted in political circles
as a likely successor to Otto
Nuschke as chairman of the East
German Christian Democrat
Party.
Nuschke repeatedly incurred
Communist disfavor by lukewarm
support of the plan to have only
a single list of Red-selected can
didates in the zone-wide election
next October.
In recent weeks Dertinger had
carried out Communist orders to

cHANuTE AIR BASE, ILL.,, Feb.
l1.-Some activities at Chanute
Air Base, where $4,000 men are
stationed, were curtailed today
because of the fuel shortage re-
sultirlg from the coal walkout.
A request for an airlift to fly
coal here from Canada was sent
to Air Force headquarters in
Washington. but at Ottawa Ca
madam officials said they had not
received any request for the coal.
They added, however. they could
supply some coal from the Alberta

chased his attackers 9 miles in
his own automobile before losing
them on the outskirts of London.
The attack came as Britain,
shocked by the atomic spying case
of DR.. Klaus Fuchs, touched off
one of the greater counter -espion-
age and security checkups since
the start of World War II.
Fuchs, German born scien-
tlst, confessed to giving valuable
atomic secrets to Russia for a
seven-year period. a court prose-
cutor said: He is being held for
trial on charges of violating the
Official Secrets Act.
Silent on Role in Probe.
Various branches of the military
intelligence took part in the in
vestigations which led to the ar
rest of Fuchs. A spokesman for
Prime Minister Attlee said he
could not speculate whether Ad-
miral Longley-Cook had played
any role in such Investigations.
The rear admiral as director of
naval intelligence is in charge Of
security for Britain's latest an
nounced atomic. project - the
building of atomic energy plants
for ships.
Two bullets drilled through the
windshield of the adniraFs car
as he drove through Uxbridge, on
the northwest outskirts of Lon
don. He sped after the car. but
it eluded him near Action, a West
London suburb.
Link to Cleanup Seen.
Admiral Londley- Cook told re-
porters, Il cannot imagine any
motive for the attack" He added
thoughtfully: But one never
knows"
Despite absence of any official
information, there was immediate
speculation that the big atomic
security cleanup and the shooting
might be connected.
Informed sources said Scotland
Yard and MI5-military intelli-
gence-are checking all the way
from top ranging scientists down
to the charwomen at Harwell, the
nations atomic research center,
SO miles west of London.
Intensive Search Begun.
All police cars in the area were
alerted by radio and an intensive
search of the West Side of the
city began.
EARLY developments are expect
ed" a police spokesman said.
The attack followed by only a
few hours another shooting in
which a bullet narrowly missed
Lord Moynihan, chairman of
Britain's Liberal Party.
A bullet went through the wind
shield of Lord Moynihan's car last
night while he was driving through
Epping Forest on the East Side of
London.
Admiral Longley- Cook, who is
81, was appointed director of naval
intelligence two years ago. He

ie1t OF FfeSidentS Ofdef 10 Attorney
GeneroI Poge "A
less than an hour after a presi-
dental inquiry board reported to
President Truman that a resump-
ton of coal mining is imperative. !"
The order directs the union to
tell the miners to return to work.
Meanwhile, the Government
closed out another legal attack on
John L. Lewis and his United
Mine Workers. Judge Keech, fol-
lowing UP his opinion that Mr.
Lewis probably had made four
illegal contract demands on
the mine operators, signed an in
junction which prevents Mr.. Lewis
from pushing those demands until
the legal questions have been de-
cidedeby the National Labor Re-
lations Board. That order, how
eveL would not end the strike.
Effect on Production Unknown.
Whether Judge Keech's Taft
Hartley injunction will restore
coal production. however, will not
be known until Monday, the next
mipe work day. Mr.. Lewis has
warned that his miners might re-
fuse to work, or slow down, even
under a court order.
The To-day restraining order,
as well as the request for an 30
day Taft-Hartley injunction, was
directed against the mine opera
tors as we'll as the United Mine
Workers and Mr.. Lewis.
Assistant Attorney General H.
Graham Morrison, who filed the
petitions. with Judge Keech, said
the strike restraining order would
not take effect until necessary pa
pers are served on Mr.. Lewis and
the operators. Deputy United
States marshals will serve the or
ders.
Lewis Compliance Expected.
There was no immediate COM
ment from Mr.. Lewis or the oper-
ators on the days fast-breaking
developments. It was held prob
able that Mr.. Lewis would COM
ply with the court order and in
struct the 10000 striking soft
coal miners to return to work. He
and the UNIV have been fined a
total Of S2,13o,0oO for disobeying
two similar orders in the past.
President Truman instructed At
torney General McGrath to apply
for the strike injunction imme-
d1ately after receiving report
from his Taft-Hartley board of
inquiry that immediate resump-
ton of coal mining is ''impera-
tive" to the Nations health and
safety" The board had investi-
gated the 8-month old coal con-
tract dispute on orders from the
President. Mr.. Truman's subse-
quent letter to Mr.. McGrath read
in part:
In my opinion this unresolved
labor dispute has resulted in a
strike affecting a substantial part
of an industry engaged in trade
and commerce among the several
States and with foreign nations
and in the production of goods for
commerce which strike, if per-
mitted to continue. will imperil the
national health and safety

On disbanding the Continental Army, Washington

He will incline the hearts of the citizens to cultivate
spirit of subordnation and obedience to government
to entertain brothery affection and love for another

large. And finally that He will most graciously be
pleased to dispose all to do justice to love mercy and
to demean ourselves with that charity, humility and
pacific temper of mind, which the characteristics

newer operations for round shoul-

a large amount of extra bone. This
is difficult to obtain from other

comes necessary to search for an
other supply of suitable bone.
Studies by DR.. C. Bent CARRIER,
pathologist of the New York

that bones from other patients can
be preserved in a freezer and used
after weeks of storage.
The fact that bone bank has
been established in this hospital
means that many of the deformi-
ties caused by infantile paralysis
and various accidents can now be
corrected, improving the appear

patient and raising his morale. 1t
