pected to complete work on the

In City After July IS
BY the Associated Press

| WESTERN FRONT, Korea
Sept 8.-An Allied source said to-
night Reds have a number of
troops and tanks in Kaesong, site

that Red tanks had been reported
moved into Kaesong.

Veterans Home Loan
Provisions Widened
BY the Associafed Press

Some 2 million World War II
veterans who previously used all
or part of their CT home, farm
and business loans are entitled to
additional home loans under the
new Defense Housing Act, the
Veterans Administration said to-
day.
Comparing the new schedule
for CT loans with the one in eff
feet previously, the minimum down
payment on a $1,000 transaction
lis $3.50 instead of $500, VA said.
"At $4,000 it is $500 instead
of $1,000. and at $4,000, it is
$3.50 instead of $1,000"
The new law grants to most
veterans who used all or part of
their guaranty rights the diff
ference between what they used
and $500 for home loans only.
However, if the veteran obtained
a home loan after April 20, 1850,
no additional guaranty is pro-
iVided.

Nelson Move 10 Regain
Records Given 10 Fay
To Be Argued Friday
Numbers Becker Claims
Rights Were Violated
By Senate Committee

A bold move by Charles E. Mel
son to forestall possible prosecu-
ton on gambling charges today
had the Government on the de-
fensive in its campaign against
thriving rackets.
Nelson, who has admitted back
ing a numbers operation, late yes
terday asked District Court to di-
rect the return of his personal
records, which are being studied
by a grand jury, and to suppress
this data as evidence in any GRIM
inal proceedings against him.
Originally, the records were OBJ
tanned from Nelson by the Senate
Crime Investigating Committee,
under subpoena. Before it went
out of existince August 81, the
committee turned them over to
United States Attorney, George
Morris Fay for use in the District
gambling investigation. Mr.. Fay
made them available to the jurors
Claims Committee Assurance.
Nelson declared in his motion
for recovery and suppression OF
evidence that the papers were in
tended for the exclusive use OF
the Senate committee. He saio
the committee gave definite assur-
ance that the records would be
returned to him "at the very ear
liest date" and that he never gave
permission for other persons
groups or tribunals to examine
them.
Nelson argued that the commit
tee violated his constitutional
rights agains unreasonable search
and seizure by turning over the
records to the United States at
torney.
The motion stated further that
Nelson believes it to be Mr.. Fay'S
intention to use the records as
evidence against him before the
grand jury to obtain an indict-
'ment against him and, if the in
Idictment is returned. to use it as
evidence against him on trial.
Nelson also said he believes the
papers would be made available
to prosecuting authorities in
Maryland for criminal proceed
ingS against him in that State.
The motion will be argued next
Friday, according to Mr.. Fay, but
it is not yet known before which
judge.
Mr.. Fay said the Government
has been successful in defending
its position in numerous similar
motions and hoped to do so in this
instance.
Leo A. Rover, attorney for Nell
son in Washington, said the prin-
ciple of the motion is not new but
the facts in this case differ from

BY the Associated Press

HONG KONG, Sept. 8.-Arch-
bishop Anthony Riberi, papal in
ternuncio, arrived in Hong Kong
from Red China today under
Communist orders to stay out of
Communist China forever.
His expulsion severed mainland
China's last link with the Vatican.
The Chinese Communist gov
ernment announced a "perma-

him Thursday. Peiping radio said
last Tuesday the archbishop
would be banned for alleged espi-
onage activities and for encourag-
ing Catholics to oppose the Com
munist government.
Archbishop Riberi, 81, was es-
corted to the Red China Hong
Kong border by three armed Chi

Regime 10 Boost

Prague Reds Creute
New Office to Crack
Whip on Producers
BY the Associated Press

LONDON, Sept. 8.-The Czecho-
Slovak government has been shak-
en- up to boost the output of in
Idustrial goods which Moscow de-
mandS and new ministry of state
control is being established to
crack down on laggard producers.
The changes in governmental
organization were made at a spe-
cial session of the cabinet in
Prague yesterday and were an
nounced today in a Czech news
agency story broadcast by Prague
Radio.
They followed Immediately after
Thursdays shakeup of Communist
Party officials.
In the party shifts, tough little
President Klement Gottwald, who
spent the war in Moscow, added
the duties of secretary-ge general to
his job as party chairman. The
party also abolished the title of
secretary general, always the key
post in Communist setups-a move
which caused considerable puzzle
ment to Western dilomatic OBJ
servers.
Slansky Gets New Job.
Rudolf Slansky, the hard bitten
Moscow-trained revolutionary who
had been Secretary-general, was
set aside for another important
state post" which was not named.
He remained as one of seven men,
bers of an elite political secre-
tariat."
The new minister of state con-
troll was not named in today's dis
patch describing cabinet changes.
A Foreign Office expert in iron
curtain affairs expressed belief the
was part of a radical
to make sue Czecho-
the most industrialized
of all countries in the Russian
orbit, moves faster to fill Russian
orders for machinery.
He said he believed the new Job
was an important one to Moscow,
probably had been ordered from
the Kremlin, and speculated that
Slansky has been tagged for it.
Slansky has been ore of Mos
cows most trusted agents in
CZechOSlOVakia, a country that has
been the most restive of all the
Russian satellites, apparently be-
cause it was the only one to have
a good taste Of Western-type free

Red coup.

thought the rather mysterious
moves relating to Slansky may
fall in the same pattern as the
