District Reds Avoid
Eviction byPoying on
Back Rent on Office

The District Communist Party
has been in danger of losing it's
one-room Office at SGT Ninth
street NV. because of non-pay-
ment in rent, it was disclosed to-
day.
However, payment of $25 of
the $50 owed the Atlas Invest
ment Corp. $40 F street NV,
for two months rent of the room
probably will result in the cor
poration's dropping of an eviction
suit they had filed against the
Reds.
Joseph B. Stein, attorney for
the real estate firm, said the
complaint would be dropped be-
cause the Communists have paid
for one month and the company
expects they will pay the balance
shortly.
The attorney said the Com
munists first had three rooms
then dropped to two and now have
but one. e -

|Censure Motion Filed
AGAINST AttIee for
Exports 10 Red China
BY the Assoeioted Press

LONDON, May Am inde-
pendent member Of the House Of
Commons filed 'censure motion
against the Labor government to-
day for permitting export of stra-
Itegic materials to Red China.
Adoption of such a motion
would bring down Prime Minister
Attlee's cabinet and force a new
national election.
The move, by independent Ray
mond Blackburn. was the latest
of series of parliamentary blasts
against the government for its
attitude toward such exports.
Mr.. Blackburn charged in the
house Wednesday that the Chi
nese are getting from Britain ard
its colonies supplies for the Red
armies now killing British soldiers
| in Korea. This was denied by
Mr.. Attlee and Defense Minister
Shinwell.
Still Licensing Exports.
Mr.. Attlee admitted yesterday,
however, that Britain is still
licensing some rubber exports to
the Peiping Red government.
Deputy Conservative Leader
Anthony Eden demanded a halt
on all such shipments. At the
same time he called on Mr.. Attlee
to make public next Monday up
to-date figures on all exports Of
strategic material to the Chinese
Communists since the fighting in
Korea began.
Mr.. Blackburn's motion, citing
Colonial Office and Board of
i Trade figures, accused the gov
ernment of having authorized
or permitted" the export to China
[of 10000 tons of rubber between
July, 1850, and March, 1851. Be-
tween January and March this
year, the motion added, Britain
sent China these goods:
3,430 tons of iron and steel
and manufactures thereof"
Other Stategic Materials.
Metal and manufactured metal
ARTICLES other than of steel worth
EST 900 ($149,6 5000.
Vehicles worth Ell 900 Cor $780,
5000.
"Other strategic materials, in.
Guiding electrical goods and ap-
paratus and other machinery"
The motion asked the House to
say that it particularly censures
the Minister of Defense for his
Ignorance of the facts set out in
this motion and for persistently
denying their truth"

(Ed. NOte-While Drew Pear son is on brief vacation, the Washington. Merry -go-r0und is being written by several disting- uished guest c0lumnists, tOday's being by Stefan Osusky, former Czech statesman and diplomat, now in exile).
 WASHINGTON. = The lowering of the Iron Curtain after the close of World War II was not only a national tragedy for those coun- tries which thus found themselves segregated from the rest of the free world, but a human disaster which tore the heart out of man.
 Soviet Russia did her devils best to impress upon the nations of central and eastern Europe that they had been forsaken by the West. The Iron Curtain limited contacts tc official representation, reliable party members and fellow travellers, making it possible for the Kremlin to demonstrate con- vincingly to these unfortunate peoples that they had been com pletely abandoned and forgotten by the West. There resulted loss of sense of belonging to the West, which paralyzed the peoples will to resist, and which was thus the Kremlins most effective tool in the establishment of its dominion over the central and eastern Eur opean nations. Despairing of their future, they lost all will to stand fast by their own past.
 So far. the crusade for freedom by "ballooncasting." championed by Drew Pearson, has brought the
