Alternative 10 Communism
Urged by Justice Douglas
By the Asseeiated Press

CHICAGO, May 22-America
should fight for correction of con-
ditions that breed communism
says Justice Douglas of the Su-
preme Court.
THE fact is" he said, that
America has been so engrossed
in providing defense against
communism that we have lost the
initiative. Our great weakness has
been our negative attitude.
yet no matter how feverish
our efforts, the Red tide of COM
munism seems to spread abroad
So we rush to the support of every
group which opposes Soviet COM
munism. That puts us in part
nership with the corrupt and re-
dictionary groups whose policies
breed the discomfort on which
Soviet communism feeds anc
prospers."
Justice Douglas, who has made
two trips to Asia, said the people
of Asia have specific complaints,
including absence of medical care
and schools, need for land re-
form, a desire to learn modern
farming methods and the right te
vote. They also have new sense
Of nationalism, he said.
"We cannot remake the worlo
In our image" Justice Douglas
said, "but we can help those who
are seeking an escape from
squalor to find alternatives tc

House Cuts Out Fund.
IFor Afraid Shelters
I'm Civil Defense Bill

The House yesterday cut all
funds for air raid shelter construc-
ton from its civil defense appro-
priation bill. allowing only SAL
750. 900 to run the agency for the
remainder of this fiscal year.
The House action marked what
may be the end Of drastic
whiting operations by both
the House and Senate on the
original administration request for
$843 million for a large number
of agencies. of which the FCDA
was to receive q lions share of
$403 million.
AS finally approved by the
House, the overall bill was
trimmed to $65 million-which
Chairman Cannon Of the House
Appropriations Committee called
ian unprecedented decrease"
Some of the provisions of the
civil defense money had FCDA Of
ficials scratching their heads.
The bill provides that $3.50. .00l
of the total shall be used for op-
erations of the agency; S. million
for a procurement fund to match
State appropriations for organiza-
tional materials, and $25 million
for Federal contributions to State
for medical supplies and educa-
ton.
Provisions Confuse Oflicials.
It is the last Of these provisions
that confuses FDCA officials. The
approved language Of the money
bill specifies that the SIS million
shall "be equally matched with
State funds, Of which $40 million
shall be for medical supplies and
equipment and S. million shall be
for training and education"
The confusion arises from the
fact that under the national
civil defense law stockpiling Of
medical supplies is the exclusive
responsibility Of the Federal Gov
ernment and no provision fol-
matching funds for training and
education is made.
AS originally passed by the
House, the bill would have pro-
vided for $75 million for shelters
and other protective facilities" on
a matching basis with the States
This provision. however, was
stricken by the Senate and the
House agreed to withhold the
sum.

ticularly liquor dealers. shared in
terest today in Supreme Court
opinion that apparently strength
ened investigating committees
and weakened fair trade laws
against price-cutting.
General interest. however, CEN
tered on what the tribunal did
not do at yesterdays session,
which was scheduled as the sec
ond last of the current term. On
opinion day next Monday. how
ever, it may announce a final
meeting for June 4.
The Supreme Courts ruling yes
terday on State so-called fair
trade laws does not directly affect
this city, because the District,
Vermont, Texas and Missouri are
the only jurisdictions that have
not adopted such laws.
In a 6-3 opinion written by
Justice Douglas the court held
that fair trade agreements under
the Miller Tydings Act of 1887,
designed to prevent price cutting,
do not apply to stores that refuse
to sign agreements Of that kind.
The case was carried to the Su-
preme Court by a New Orleans
dealer who refused to sign fair
trade agreements with the Cal
vert and Seagram companies.
Attorneys have declared that
such a decision would ultimately
kill fair trade laws, which apply
generally not only to liquor. but
to household appliances. clothing
and the like. This raised the
possibility that the District might
be affected indirectly by any de-
velopments in nearby Maryland
and Virginia.
Contracts or agreements con-
vey the idea OF. a cooperative ar
rangement," Justice Douglas
wrote, land not a program where
by recalcitrants are dragged in
by the heels and compelled to
submit to price-fixing."
Frankfurter Dissents.
Justice Frankfurter, joined by
Justices Black and Burton, de-
livered a dissenting opinion. He
declared the majority view is
contrary to the words Of the
statute and to the legislative his
tory"
In the only other major opinion
yesterday, the court ruled 8 to l
that the California State legisla-
tive committee on un-American
activities cannot be sued on a
charge that it violated the civil
rights of a prospective witness
William P. Brandhove, who had
admitted he was a former Com
munist, sued for $250.000 dam
ages because he was arrested for
refusing to answer committee
Questions, after he circulated a
petition protesting against legis-
Ilative appropriations for the
committee. The jury disagreed
and the case was dismissed.
The majority opinion. writer,
by Justice Frankfurter, declared
that legislative freedom must be
carefully protected. It said the
Constitutional privilege relating
to legislators would be of little
value, if legislators could be sub
jected to the cost and incon-
Ivenience and distractions Of q
trial or to the hazard of a judg-
ment against them based upon q
Ijury's speculation as to motives. .

asserted that this opinion meant
that legislative committees have
no limits in the eyes of the
law"

Swedish Trade
With Russia Is
Below Set Mark

Russian contracts with Swedish

credit granted by Sweden in 1916.

March 81. of which goods valued
at POI million kronor had been de-
livered. 1t is probable that not
more than one-half of this credit,
which is due to expire on Deem
Der 10, 1851. with one years re-
spite for certain deliveries, will be
utilized.
Regular trade between Sweden
and the Soviet Union, outside the
credit agreement, in 1851 is ex-
pected to total about 40 million
kronor in each direction, or APP
proximately the same as for 1850,
according to negotiations recently
concluded in Moscow. This means
that Russia will maintain the same
modest position in Sweden's for
eign trade that she occupied last
year, when the Soviet Union and

all Swedish exports and sent only

Value OF Swedish
Social Welfare
Benefits Dropping

The concern of Swedish house.
wives over the rising prices is
emphasized in a statement issued
by the Social-Democratic Women's
Association. 1t points out that al
though large sections of the popu-
lation are able to find compensa-
ton in higher wages. such groups
as families with many children and
self-supporting mothers must reck-
on with a reduced living standard,
partly due to the fact that the
real value of social welfare cash
benefits has decreased more than
one-fifth since the beginning of
1917. The Association expresses
the hope that the real value of
such benefits may be restored as
soon as possible, as has been the
case with old age pensions. These
have been increased for the first
half of this year by a twenty per
cent compensation to meet the ris-
ing living costs. The basic pensions
are 1000 kronor a year for every
single person over siXty-seven
years of age, and LOGO kronor for
each married couple of the same
age.
