BERLIN. Aug. A Filipino
Professor who Travelled half way
round the world believing he was
coming to a United Nations
sponsored fair" today was put
straight in a hurry when he saw
the Communist trappings of the
world youth festival in Berlin.
"All those red flags and Stain
pictures, " exclaimed Prof. Antonio
Albert, head of the Civil Engineer
ing Department of the University
of the Philippines. THE adver-
tisement I saw in Manila didn't
say it was Russians sponsored"
Prof. Albert, a bespectacled
smiling man and father of six,
said he saw a notice about the
democratic youth meeting in
Berlin" in the United Nations
building at Manila. He said in

close that it was Communist.
So, having a sabbatical leave

"and the clerk looked at me
sharply and said: Why, that's in
East Berlin. In the Russian sector.
DO you want to go there?
"That word Russian made me
suspicious, so I called the Ameri-
can consulate and they gave me
an idea what this festival was.
Then some Americans kindly
came around with car and took
me down to the Brandenburg gate
at the Russian sector border
where I could see for myself all
those Red flags and Communist
slogans.
THAT was all / needed to see.
and I wouldn't go near them be-

sented my credentials to them
they would have propagandized
me as a friend of theirs come

But Prof. Albert said he thought
the trip was well worth while,
anyway.

Compromise Is Rumored.
A hearing on the Harrington
nomination was put off last Fri
day for one week at the request
of the Justice Department.
There were reports that the de-
lay was asked in an effort to work
out some sort of a compromise.
1t was being hinted that Mr.. Tru-
man might withdraw the nomina-
ton of Judge Drucker and substi-
tute that of Judge Benjamin Ep-
stein, one of the men recon-
Imended by Senator Douglas, in re-
turn for the support of the Har-
Irington nomination.
Senator Douglas said, however,
he was sticking by his original
nominations. His other choice for
the disputed appointment is Will
liam H. King, jr. He and the
President have agreed on a third
choice-Joseph Samuel Perry for
another Federal district court ap-
pointment.
Judge Drucker, who testified
briefly at the hearing yesterday,
is a nephew of Representative
SABBATH. Democrat. of Illinois, 85-
year-old dean of the House and
chairman of its Rules Committee.
SABBATH Urges Drucker Approval.
Mr., SABBATH urged approval of
Judge Drucker's nomination and
said he had made a fine record
as a municipal court judge in
Chicago.
Il regret that the President has
not consulted with the Senator, f."
Mr.. SABBATH said and then a round
OF laughter when he added:
Il was wondering why the Sen
ator has not consulted with the
President. Are they both SO proud
and independtn? I can't under
stand it. They belong to the same
party. Both are progressive and
liberal"
Judge. Drucker related his ex-
perience as a lawyer and judge
