1t will be noted how wide and
varied are the Communist con-
spiracies inside trade unions.
Not long ago the Senate In
ternal Security Committee, of
which Senator McCarran of
Nevada is chairman, issued re-
port describing a Communist
conspiracy inside an A. F. of L
union known as the Dining Car
and Railroad Food Workers
Union. In that report, issued by
Senator Eastland, Democrat of
Mississippi. and signed by Sem
ators McCarran. Democrat Of
Nevada, and Watkins, Republic
can of Utah, appears this state
ment:
THE subcommittee is con-
cerned over the fact which is
clearly established by the testi-
mony that the Communists have
gained a foothold in the rail-
road industry. Although the in
stant testimony reveals abso-
lutte Communist control Of only
a small segment of the railroad
industry. plus efforts to expand
that control, in view Of the i'm
portance of the railroad industry
to the whole national economy,
it is imperative that this Com
munist control be broken"
Maybe the answer to some Of
the sporadic, unauthorized
strikes in recent years will come
out some day as these inquiries
are pushed by congressional
committees.

President Truman, Democrat
ic circles are saying. is shocked
and angered by the unfolding
scandals in the Internal Reve-
nue. Bureau and the Justice
Department. His new national
chairman, Frank Mckinney, is
on the job here and Is assuring
one and all that he. too. is
Mortified by the situation and
will protect no evil-doer.
The result of all the CONVEX
sation is a rash of speculation
about changes within the ad-
m;nistration. Burnt offerings
to atone for the administration
sins are also freely suggested,
some of them from the very
highest levels. There Is no sub
stance to these reports, accord
ing to officials named in them,
nor have influential Democrats
in Congress any word to that
effect.
Barring some unexpected, di-
rect accusations against his
principal aides, the President
has this month to consider in
relative tranquility and secrecy
what steps, if any, will restore
confidence in the Truman ad-
ministration. 1t would be in
character for him to try to
ride it out. The Truman say
ing most often quoted by a ma
jor beneficiary of his stubborn
ness, Maj. Gen. Vaughan, is:

All the previous Red often
sives have failed. despite their
enormous numerical superiority,
because they did not have the
necessary air cover. They had
neither close bases nor the mod
ern aviation to fight our own

1t has been definitely estab-
lished now that Moscow has
pfoVlQeQ tnem Win manned air
planes. A conservative estimate
places these at $500 MICS and
modern bombers. It is suspected
that the flow of planes from the
USSR is continuing at least to
replace the losses the enemy is
suffering in the present fencings
with the American and Allied
air forces. Once the Reds have
an edge Of superiority over our
own air, they expect to push
ahead successfully. This ex-
plains the rapid buildup Of their
ground forces and reported
stockpiling of large quantities of
arms and munitions behind the
present buffer lines.

and the purposes Of the Com
munist Party rather than the
objectives set forth in the con-
stitution Of the CIO."
In the face of this explicit
finding, another statement in
the report also becomes peril
nent. For. In the officers report
to the 1948 convention of the
United Public Workers, the dis
tribution of members by civil
service status is given. The CIO
Executive Committee. which con-
Quoted the inquiry, sums up the
data as follows:
This distribution shows that
II per cent Of the total union
membership had Federal civil
service status, 81 per cent Of the
membership had State, county,
municipal civil service status,
and the remaining Is per cent
Of the membership, comprising
members working for private
employers, according to the re-
port, had no civil service sta
tus."
1t is stated by the CIO that
the Federal section of the mem
bership has been dropping and
may now well be below II per
cent" and that probably many
individual members "are fooled"
and are innocent of the purposes
of the union. But one wonders
how any such Federal employees
can continue to get their pay at
all in view of provisions in the
appropriation laws which forbid
payments to any Government
employe who is a member of a
subverSive organization.
1t will be noted that Senator
Mccarthy of Wisconsin had
nothing to do with all this and
that the report is sponsored in
Congress by Senator Humphrey.

way back in the Biblical era.
The reason for their Importance
is somewhat explained in another
source in the Bible plumbers
3:13) wherein it is written "For
all the firSt-born are mine on the
day when I smote all the first
born in the land of Egypt" It is
thus obvious that the first-born
received special consideration be-
cause they were saved from the
hand of the angel of death who
snaote the first-born of the Egyp-
tians during the last of the ten
plaques of the land of Egypt.
The Lord is said to have spared
them for a priestly role in the
sanctuary. The selection of the
first-born particularly has at least
two important reasons. First, it
was a general tendency of the
Jewish faith to dedicate the first
fruits of any producing elements
as a sign of the fact that what we
have came from the Lord Eternal.
Hence the first fruits of the earth
were always taken to the Temple.
1t would be likewise fitting to
extend this ritual to the first
fruits Of the animal and man, as
a symbol of recognizing that CID
is the source of all production.
Secondly, it was a custom in old
en- times amongst the idol wor-
shippers to defy the first-born.
Some even went as far as Offer
ing the first-born children Of
humans as sacrifices upon fire
affairs. The Lord destroyed the
first-born of Egypt to show that
they were not deities. He asked
the Israelites to dedicate their
first-born as an example of the
fact that one can serve CD with
out killing ones self, i. e., by
dedicating ones life to CD.

oil Talks Break Down
After British Move
For Premier's Custer
BY the Associated Press

LONDON, Sept. 7.-Oil talks
between Britain and Iran reached
a complete breakdown today fol-
lowing a thinly yelled British de-
mand that Iran throw out Pre-
mier Mohammed Mossadegh.
The Foreign ONCE. stung by
DIR. Mossadegh.s threat to expell
$50 British technicians from the
shutdown Abadan refinery area,
unless Britain came up with new
proposals within Is days said last
night:
''The recent speech by the Per-
sian Qranian) Prime Minister in
the Senate shows conclusively
that no further negotiations with
the present Persian government
can produce any results. His
Majesty's government therefore
now consider that the negotia-
tions begun by the Lord Privy
Seal Orchard r. Stokes) are no
longer in suspense, but broken
off"
Issue Squarely Up to Iran.
This was regarded here as put
ting it squarely up to Iran to
produce entirely new proposals
as a basis for negotiations or
bring in a new government to
tackle the difficult problem.
DR.. MosSadegh could lose the
premiership by parliamentary &C
ton, or he might be decisively
voted out of Office in the Iranian
general elections scheduled for
next month. 1t is doubtful. how
ever, that the implied British ulti-
matum will be helpful to DR.. Mos
sadegh's opponents in Iran con-
sidering the inf1amed Nationalist
feelings there.
The Foreign Office statement
also indirectly warned that Brit
ain would not sit idly by if Iran
carried out her threat to expel
British employees of the national
lied Anglo-Iranian Oil Co.
LAS regards the threat to with
draw the resident permits of Brit
ish company employees. it is evi-
dent that any attempt by the
Persian Qranian) government to
evict them would be a further
breach of the interim decision of
The Hague International Court, !"
1t said.
The top government leaders
have previously intimated that
Britain would use force if neces-
sary to keep toe-hold at Abadan.
Premier Suffers Setback.
Her major hope for avoiding
trouble, however, is the courts
recommendation to both countries
to keep the industry working until
settlement is reached.
Britain's bare-fisted blow at DR..
Mossadegh came soon after the
Iranian Premier had suffered a
serious political setback in the
Malls dover house of Parlia-
menD. He was unable yesterday
to round up quorum to vote ap-
proval of his ultimaturn to Britain
which had already been approved
by the Senate.
The next session is scheduled for
Sunday.
Lord Privy Seal Stokes returned
from talks in Teheran August "a
after failing to bulge DR.. Mossa-
degh from his stand that Iran
must take over complete control
of assets within Iran of the $1.4
billion Anglo-Iranian Oil Co. The
British government owns a con-
trolling interest in the company.

Republican Victory
In Texas House Race
Feared by Democrats
BY the Assoeiesed Press

House Democratic leaders, none
too happy over their party's
skimpy nominal majority, fear a
Republican may slip through in a
special Texas election tomorrow to
add to their woes.
This is one of five-and possible
eight-Special elections to be held
before the first of the year to fill
existing and prospective va
cancieS.
The free-for-all in Texas 18th
district tomorrow, administration
stalwarts fear, may see a repeat
performance of the May, 1850,
special election in which a Repub-
lican. Ben H. GULL. beat 10 Demo-
Gratis in the 18th Texas district
for the first G. o. P. victory in
Democratic Texas in years.
Seven Democrats in Race.
Mr.. GULL polled only 8,151 votes
against a combined Democratic
total of 26,694. Under the law,
he needed only plurality.
And so it could be tomorrow
when a lone Republican, Joe
Jackson of Wichita Falls. runs
against seven Democrats, includ-
ing> former Representative w. D.
McFarlane, described as closer to
the administration viewpoint than
the other Democrats.
Mrs. Edith WilmanS, a prohibi-
tion advocate, and Walter Jenkins,
former administrative assistant to
Senator Lyndon johnson, also are
candidates.
Texas law does not provide for
q primary or other method of
selecting candidates for special
elections. They are open to all,
thus permitting a lone Republican
to split the opposition and win
without majority. When faced
by single opponent in the regu-
lar November election in 1850,
Mr.. GULL lost by $4,000 to 25,O00I
for his Democratic challenger.
The 18th district election is to

sentative Gossett, Democrat, who
resigned to take a job with the

is now 232. Democrats, 1877 Repub-
hcans and l Independent. A ma

seat will be filled October %. A
successor to Mr.. Gillette will be
elected November s, and the same
date may be chosen to fill the
Vaughn seat.

Of health, effective October /, but
1t is yet to be made official.
Whether a special election will be
held to fill his seat is questionable
because his district is involved in
reapportionment.

Three other House members are
candidates for public office In New
York in November 6 elections.
They are Representative Latham,
Republican, for president of the
New York City Council, Repre-
sentative Quinn, Democrat, for
prosecuting attorney of Queens,
and Representative Delaney, Dem
ocrat, for president of the Borough
of Queens.
If the three New Yorkers are
elected their House seats would
have to be filled by special elec-
tions.
Saturdays Texas special elec-
tion will be the fifth for the House
this year-all involving Democratic
seats. Three Democrats were
elected, one each in Pennsylvania,
Kentucky and West Virginia. And
a Republican captured a former
Democratic seat in Missouri.
