Convention Here With
Blasts at Communism
Stotes Urged to Require
Loyalty Ooths From
All in Legal Practice

The American Bar Association
today concluded it's 73d annual
convention with three vigorous
blasts at communism.
In the final session of it's five
day meeting at the Hotel Statler.
the ABA:
/. Recommended that loyalty
oaths be required of every mem
ber of the bar.
Q. Voted to create a special COM
mittee to analyze Communist
methods. strategy and tactics and
to advise lawyers and judges of
effective measures to combat Red
activities.
3. Urged approval by President
Truman of the Wood-McCarran
anti-sdbversive bill now on his
desk Mr.. Truman is reported
ready to veto the measure, but
congressional leaders predict that
such action would be overridden.
Could Be Disbarred.
Under the loyalty oath resolu-
tion, the ABA urged that each
State require each member of
it's bar to file an affidavit stating
whether he is or ever has been
member of the Communist Party
or of any organization espousing
overthrow of the Government.
If the affidavit reveals such
membership, the ABA says an in
vestigation should be made to de-
termine the persons fitness to
continue as an attorney. And
should there be willful false
swearing as to any facts, the per-
son should be disbarred. The
loyalty oaths would be executed
annually.
The ABA House of Delegates

luton aimed at what was called

ago to help pay for American re-
armament against Communist ag-

Estimates are that it will pro-

than the IS billion Mr.. Truman
asked. But he was reported to be
pleased with the measure; his sig

Indications were that the House

Big Discusses

Chiefs Study Proposal
To Include Germans
BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Sept. 22.-The Big
Three foreign and defense min
listers convened today to discuss
formation of an integrated North
Atlantic defense force against
possible Russian aggression.
A State Department source
said prime questions before the
officials were, first, whether such
a force should be created, and,
secondly, whether to include Ger
man units in it.
The position taken by the con-
ferees at today's meeting will be
placed before a session of the 12-
nation North Atlantic council
here next week for further action
Americans Take Initiative.
Participating in the meeting
were Defense Secretary Marshall
British Defense Minister Emanuel
ShinWell, French Defense Minis
ter Jules Moch. Secretary of State
Acheson, British Foreign Secre-
tary Bevin and French Foreign
Minister Schuman.
The American officials, who re-
portedly favor inclusion of Ger
man units to fill a gap in Western
Europe's defenses. took the initia-
tive in the closely guarded session
on the 37th floor of the Waldorf
Astoria Tower.
A State Department spokesman
said the conferees would talk over
the United States analysis of GER
tain defense problems which came
up in discussions among the three
Foreign Ministers this past week. "
Some observers interpreted this
as meaning the United States
will attempt to sell the idea of
German units to the French and
British representatives.
French Reluctant.
A State Department source
said the French, particularly
were UNDERSTANDABLE reluctant to
rearm Germany after being in
vaded three times by that coun-
try, but that the United States
analysis did not envision a re-
arming Germany in the usual
sense of the term.
He said that in the United
States view German units would
be directly under control of the
supreme commander of the in
tegrated force and would not be
subject to any control by the
German government at Bonn.
Sources close to the meeting
said no tangible results toward
creation Of an integrated defense
force could be expected quickly
because even if such force were
agreed on there remained many
technical problems. These prob
lens would include raising, train
ing and equipping the men and
deciding on the proportions to be
borne by the various nations in
men, equipment and costs.
The six high officials went into
session at 1870 am. Later they
were joined by about half a dozen
advisers from each of the three
nations.
