Tito Assures West

In Case War Comes
Reorming Of Germany
lndorsed by Marshal
In ToIk With Press
BY the Assocjoted Press

BELGRADE, Oct. 31.-Premier
Marshal Tito declared today he is
willing to cooperate Without
not to join-the Atlantic pact
and said the West could count on
him as friend in the event OF
World War III.
Tito, wearing his marshal's uni
form, met with 125 foreign and
local newspapermen in a four
hour news conference, his largest
and longest since becoming CHIEF
of state, and answered a barrage
of questions.
These were some of his an
swers:
He hopes for better relations
soon with Italy and Greece.
Backs German Rearmament.
He supports the rearmament o1
Western Germany.
He warned repeatedly that there
is danger of war, but said the
people should mot despair" OF
preventing it.
He felt that the future of stra-
tegic Trieste on the Adriatit
probably will be discussed di.
rectly, very soon, between Yugo.
slavia and Italy,"
Speaking in Serbian through
tranSlatorS, Tito told the reporter!
the Atlantic pact was "a logica
consequence of Soviet policy" Al
a result of that Russian policy
he added, there could be no neu.
trality on the part of a European
country in the event of Worlc
War III.
Sticks to Policies.
"On all questions of economi.
and cultural relations. on al
questions of international affair,
that do not conflict with Yugo.
Slavia, we will be willing to CO.
operate with the countries Of thu
Atlantic pact" Tito said, but HI
made it plain he would not joir
the pact. and that arms aid from
the United States would no
change his policies.
"Our policy is in the interest,
of the security and independence
and the strength of Yugoslavia
There is no essential change il
policy. It is a logical continuation
of our policy since our break (ir
1948 with Russia and the Com
inform countries. That is to Sc
cure Yugoslavia, without politica
considerations"
He said Yugoslavia needs heav,
artillery, tanks and planes from
the United States. but is "nca6,

required to take out a $50 occupa-
tional license, pay 10 per cent of
their monthly gross income to the
Federal Government and publicly
list all their employees and places
Iof operation.
Not a single gambler in the
Washington area has applied for
the occupational license stamp, al
though more than 1000 applica-
ton blanks have been issued at
the Office of the Deputy Collec-
tor of Taxes for this area.
Many Blanks Picked Up.
Many of the application blanks
were picked up by lawyers, news
|papermen, accountants and others
interested in the operation of the
new tax law. Revenue officials
said they had no way of knowing
whether any gamblers actually
called for the blanks.
Special Agent John r. Cox, who
supervises the Washington, Mary
land-Virginia area for the Special
Intelligence Unit of the Internal
Revenue Bureau. said the collec-
tors of taxes in Baltimore and
Richmond had asked him for lists
of all known gamblers as a step
toward enforcing the new law.
The special intelligence unit
has quietly been gathering evil
dence against gamblers and other
racketeerS for use in income tax
violation cases.
Legal Fight Readied.
Meanwhile, two well-known
Washington criminal lawyers re-
vealed they are preparing a legal
fight against the new law which
may ultimately reach the Supreme
Court.
Charles E. Ford and Myron
Ehrlich, both of whom have rep
resented big-shot gamblers in
court cases here in the past. Wis
tied Internal Revenue offices to
familiarize themselves with the
new law yesterday.
Both said they thought provi-
sions Of the law requiring gam
blers to list the correct addresses
OF all establishments where they
carry on illegal operations as well
as the names and home addresses
of all employees are unconstitu-
tional.
Cite Fifth Amendment.
The attorneys said the Fifth
Amendment protects citizens from
possible self-incrimination. All of
the information required on the
gambling tax reports would be-
come a matter Of public record
available to local law enforce
ment authorities, the attorneys
said.
Both Ford and Ehrlich refused
to divulge the clients on whose be-
half they will test the constitu-
tionality Of the act. Mr.. Ehrlich
represented William "Snags" Lewis
in recent gambling trials. Mr.
Ford is attorney for Emmitt War
ring, numbers game kingpin.
Refers to 1927 Decision.
Mr.. Ford pointed out that the
late Justice Holmes in a majority
opinion for the Supreme Court in
1927 held that while revenue from
illegal sources is taxable, the Gov
ernment cannot compel a citizen
to supply information on his tax
return which could be used against
him later.
Meanwhile, gambling operations
are being drastically curtailed here
while bookmakers and numbers
operators nervously await a show
down on the tax question. Some
large operators have suspended
operations entirely until the mat
ter is clarified. Others are re-
ducing odds paid numbers game

Nations Command. It brought the
two sides closer together than they
ever have been on the question.
Differences Noted.
Hopes scared In this truce camp.
But u. N. Command spokesman
said there were two important diff
ferences between the new Red
offer and the Allied proposal:
/. The Reds want to keep
Kaesong. former truce talk site.
The Allies want to take it over.
2. The Communist version of the
battle line is 2 or 3 miles south
Of where the Allies place it.
These differences were pointed
out by Col. Andrew j. Kinney,
chief U. N. liaison officer.
Col. Kinney said there were Ger
tain other things the U. N. nego-
tiators could not accept imme-
diately.
Suspicion Expressed.
But. he added, the Communist
offer brought the buffer zone ques-
ton nearer to solution than at
any time since truce talks first
started July 10.
Even should the buffer zone
question be settled. three tough
problems remain to be solved be-
fore truce can come. These
are: Supervision of the truce,
which means behind the lines in
spection, exchange of prisoners,
and agreement on recommends
tons to be made to governments
concerned.
Red negotiators submitted their
plan Unexpectedly near the close
OF Wednesdays meeting of truce
subcommittee in a rain-soaked
tent at Panmunjom. The plan was
outlined on a map.
The subcommittees will continue
their discussions Thursday at II
am. 60 pm. Wednesday EST.
Three times, Col. Kinney said.
the Red delegates said this was
their last and best proposal"
This makes us very suspicious, ;"
Col. Kinney said.
Nevertheless, he said, the new
Red proposal "is the biggest step
I've seen" for solving the buffer
zone question.
Differ on Line of Contact.
The Communist proposal was
based on their version of the cur
rent battle line. Negotiators call
1t the line of contact" The
buffer zone would be 21a miles
wide.
The o. N. Command has in
sisted all along that the cease
nre line pc paSed on the battle
front. The current Allied pro-
posal is for a buffer zone 21a
miles wide.
Originally. the Reds demanded
buffer zone on the 38th Parallel.
Last week they modified their
plan to a demarcation line run
ming S to Is miles south of the
battle line.
Wednesday morning, as rain
trickled through holes in the con-
ference tent, subcommittee nego-
tiators argued over what should
be done about Kaesong.
Communist newsmen outside the
tent said there would be no agree
ment if the Allies insisted on TAX
ing over KaeSong. In their origi-

NEW YORK, Feb. 13-R-Almost unnoticed in the seething, two-team battle between Kentucky and Okla homa A&M for National Basketball honors has been the steady ascend ancy of Kansas State.
 The K-Staters are ranked No. 3 in the current Associated Press poll marking their highest standing q he season.
 The Kentucky Wildcats, driving for their second poll victory in three years, edged out Oklahoma A&M again for the top spot.

CHARGES HURLED
 IN GOLF CIRCLES

MEXICO CITY, Feb. 13-R-The Mexican Golf Association accused the United States PGA today of going back on it's word and urged fair treatment for U. S. players entered in the Mexican Open tourn- ament.
 "The PGA has no right to class ify our national open" the body added in formal statement grow ing out of the squabble over par ticipation of U s. pros in the Mex ican event, beginning Thursday.
 The PGA tournament committee told it's transforming members last weekend at San Antonio, Tex, not to play in the Mexican Open. The PGA said this isn't championship event because entries are obtained by invitation rather than disquali- fication.
 Seven players, including Jimmy Demaret of Ojai, Calif., and former PGA champion Vic Ghezzi of New York, decided to play in the Mex ican Open anyhow.
