To Hunt Some Sleep

NEWARK. N. j., April Z (P.-
Federal Judge Irving r. Kaufman,
who sentenced two convicted
atomic spies to death Thursday in
New York. left by plane today for
Palm Beach, Fla, describing him
self as the most tired man in the
world"
The jurist and friend, Thomas
Dodd, a lawyer of Hartford, Conn,
departed at 8 am. on a plane from
Newark Airport.
Asked by reporters what plans
he had for the vacation, the jurist
replied. I'm just going to sleep
for four days in a boat"
Judge kaufman would not dis
cuss the sensational spy trial, nor
would be CON lent on the sem
tences.
He said he would return to New
York Wednesday to hear motions
in another case.
Mr.. Dodd was chief trial counsel
at the Nuremberg trials in Ger
many in 1945 and 1946.

as the confessed traitor stood be-
fore him as rigid as a statue.
Thursday the same judge SEN
fenced julius Rosenberg and his
wife. Ethel, to die for their part
in the wartime spy plot. Judge
kaufman gave another defendant,
Morton Sobell, 80 years.
It was the first time an Ameri-
can-born spy ever had been SEN
fenced to death in a Civil court
room.
Mrs. Rosenberg is sister Of
Greenglass.
Appeal Is Filed.
Attorneys for the Rosenbergs
filed an appeal from the guilty
verdict and death sentence during
the day with the United States
Circuit Court of Appeals.
The action probably will delay
their execution, scheduled by the
court of the week Of May 81. Ap-
peals often take months, especially
If carried on up to the Supreme
Court.
Judge Kaufman talked at some
length to the 29-year-old Green
glass before passing sentence.
"You. at least. had not added
to your sins by committing the
additional crime of perjury, I"
Judge Kaufman told him.
The judge referred to Green
glass willingness to take the wit
ness stand before a jury and help
weave a web of guilt around his
own sister and her husband.
Stationed at Los Alamos.
Greenglass testified during the
trial that Rosenberg talked him
into handing over atom bomb
secrets in 1914. Greenglass then
was a soldier stationed at Los
Alamos On. Mex.), cradle of
Americas A-bomb.
Greenglass' attorney, o. John
Rogge. pleaded for leniency for
the pudgy ex-sergeant and said
any sentence sitter than five
years was too much.
Mr.. Rogge claimed Greenglass
should be praised rather than pun
ished because of his trial testi-
mony.
Lets give him a pat on the
back" the lawyer said, 80 that
it will be an encouragement for
others to come forward to aid in
veStigative agencies.
"If the government wants help,
1t must give help"

the Presidents budget and a limit
Of IS billion in new taxes were
proposed today by the United
States Chamber of Commerce. a.
general sales tax. either at the
manufacturers level or the re-
t&il level, was advocated.
"A press conference yesterday
afternoon at the Carlton Hotel
was the prelude to drive by bus
iness to balance the Federal budget
and cut non-defense spending.
Telegrams from more than 40
chambers of commerce through
the country. posted about the
room, declared that business Isl
economy minded and wants Gov
ernment spending slashed.
Cuts Specified.
Russell c. Harrington Of Provi-I
dence, r. l., chairman Of thel
chambers Committee on Govern
ment Expenditures. told reporters
these cuts can be made:
Foreign aid, 50 billion; produce
tion and stabilization, 81 billion;
housing subsidies. $500 million;
Federal health, education and well
fare programs, $1.6 billion; agri-
cultural subsidies, 81 billion and
public works and similar programs,
$11 billion.
Ellsworth c. Alvord, Washing

the chambers committee onI
Federal finance. declared there
should be realistic endeavors toI
apply the principle of pay-as-we-I
90, first through reduction of non
essential expenditures. He declared:
I'VE can't run deficit financing
any longer"
6O% In Excise Taxes.
Mr.. Alvord declared q balanced
budget must be the object and
that new revenues of about $5|
billion should be adequate to
balance the budget for the coming
fiscal year. with feasible economies.
This IS billion the tax lawyer
asserted, should be sought through
about so per cent from excuses, sol
per cent from the. individual in
come tax and 10 per cent from
the corporation income tax.
Mr.. Alvord's views were laid be-
fore the House Ways and Means
Committee in a prepared state
ment.
He recommended against an at
tempt to seek additional revenues
BY increasing the excess profits
tax rates. He declared the tax
fayoritism given co-operatives is
even more unjustifiable. now that
educational and charitable organi-
cations had their favorable position
curtailed by the Revenue Act of
1850.
Rejection Proposed.
Mr.. Alvord urged that these
official Treasury Department pro-
pusals be rejected:
Providing for withholding on
dividends and interest; to increase
the capital gains tax; to- reduce
the percentage depletion allow
ances; to provide that capital
losses Of corporations arising from
sale or abandonment of business
assets not be allowed except to the
extent Of capital gains and to In
crease estate and gift taxes.
Mr.. Harrington estimated that
the Federal spending programs
planned for the coming fiscal year
will mean an average Federal tax
bill Of $3.50 for every family.

Pan Am Screening
 Hundreds of Immigrants Under New Walter Act

SEATTLE, March 29-Pan Am erican World Airways moved inn mediately today to clear a. back log of hundreds of passengers in Europe who now are eligible to Inter the United States under terms of the Walter Act signed yesterday by President Truman.
 These passengers have been waiting to come to the US. since last November, when the McCar- ren Act prohibited entry to per sons who had been members of or affiliated with" totalitarian organization.
 The Walter Act allows entry of persons who had been "mem- bers of or affiliated with such or ganizationS when under 16 years of age or for purposes of obtain ing employment, food rations or other essentials of living"
 The amended act bars only those whose utilization or membership is, or was, voluntary.
 Pan Am has started screening the backlog of passengers held in foreign countries and will give those who qualify space on the first available flights bound for US. ports, Seattle officials of the international airline said today.
 They added that transportation of these immigrants will be ex- pedited "to avoid further hard ship" for the families who have been waiting weeks for the immi- grafton bars to be lifted. Many of the immigrants have had their passage paid to the United States by families or friends in this coun- try and they will be cared for by Pan American until they arrive at their US. destination.
