the Enola Gay. the plane that
dropped the atomic bomb on
Hiroshima. said today that spies
tried to sneak into the B-29 base

training. He said the spies were

flight crew trained for hiStory's
first A-bomb mission on August
6, 1945.
Col. Tibbets told reporter
that agents of two foreign coun-
tries were arrested near the
closely guarded base at a time
when only handful of scientists
and high military men knew about
the A-bomb. He did not name
their nationality.
The foreign agents, he said. did
not get into the base itself. They
were apprehended in the general
area. he said. adding that he was
sure they did not gain access to
secret information.
Not Personally Concerned.
Back in 1914 and 1945 when he
was commanding officer at Wend-
over. Col. Tibbets said, he was
chiefly concerned, with the prep
arations for the dropping of the
A-bomb and delegated base
guarding problems to his chief
security officer. He did not per-
Isonally handle the spies, Col.
Tibbets said. noting that my
security chief was alerted that in
all probability these people were
headed our way" He added:
Il was informed they were
apprehended and turned over to
the Manhattan District tmilitary

know what happened to them. and
I am not at liberty to say how
many there were or what coun-
tries they represented"

Truman Hits Campaign
To Discredit FTC Over
It's Oil Cartel Report

FreSlQenC truman DelleVeS that
the Federal Trade Commission is
being subjected to an organized
campaign of misrepresentation"
because of a staff report purport-
ing to bare existence of interna-
tional oil cartels.
In letter yesterday to Federal
Trade Commissioner Stephen j.
Spingarn, the President said that
this campaign "is a good illustra-
ton of attempted coercion and
intimidation" He added that sit
does not contribute to the Nation S
security for propaganda of that
kind to be spread all over the
world in an effort to discredit the
Government of the United States" "
Probe by Grand Jury.
Mr.. Spingarn has been charging
that some oil companies are try
ing to discredit the trade COM
mission because of it's report. The
President has directed the Justice
Department to look into accusa-
tions of cartel practices by q
number of large United States,
British and Dutch controlled oil
companies and a grand jury in
vestigation is under way. The
companies are resisting orders tc
produce certain records for the
grand jury.
The American companies in
clude California Texas, Ltd; So
cony- Vacuum. Inc: Standard Oil
of California, the Texas Co. and
Arabian American.
The Presidents letter to Mr.
Spingarn was in reply to one from
the commissioner forwarding a
collection of newspaper clippings
and other material. Mr.. Spingarn
said they related to an ''ethics-in-
Government issue"
Would Intimidate Judge.
Mr.. Truman wrote, without
mentioning any names, that "a
few people who would not offer q
judge money see no harm in try
ing to cajole him by influence OF
intimidate him by threats. ex-
Ipressed or implied"
MANY more people see no harm
lin using such tactics against
judicial commissions" the
President continued. Attempts to
control Government decisions by
pressure or influence are far more
common than by bribery. Where
they are successful. they prevent
government to private ends in the
same way.
THE evil of bribery lies not ir
the gain received by an official but
in the destruction of justice anC
the undermining of government;
the evil of influence or intimida-
ton is the same"
"No Excuse" for Attacks.
He said he thought there could
be no excuse for the vitu-
operative attacks upon the motives
and even the loyalty of those
responsible for the report"
Mr.. Spingarn said in his letter
to the President he was sending
similar letters to President-elect
Eisenhower and the chairmen OF
the Democratic and Republican
National Committees.
A spokesman for Gen. Eisen-
hover said there was no COM
ment from the President-elect.
In Chicago, Democratic Ma
tional Chairman Stephen A
Mitchell said he had not received
the material, but commented
I"Certainly Federal agencies should
be permitted to perform theil
functions without pressure from
contestants"

When Mr.. Ring Joined Mr..
Ihlder in 1884 the organization
was known as the Alley Dwelling
Authority, which had been formed
to rid the city Of alley slums. In
1943 the name was changed to the
National Capital Housing Author
ity and its scope was increased
to take in property other than
alley dwellings.
Started With $5OO,O00.
When the organization was
started in 1884. Congress appro-
priated $500,000, and many
thought it would be only a flash
in the pan because many other
organizations had for many years
tried to rid Washington of its
alley slums.
In four years, the organizatio
had built low-income houses in Ia
squares. Alleys were made into
commercial developments, because
the authority did not want to
build homes in alleys.
One of the alleys it developed
was in O'Briens Court, where q
parking lot was started. This
alley was between Nineteenth and
Twentieth streets and between E
and F streets NV. The property
has since been sold and is now
the site Of the Red Cross building
The authority received in excess
of the original 100000 for the
property.
Loans Broaden Work.
In 1887, the authority was, by
congressional amendment, per-
mitted to borrow money from the
Public Housing Administration
and started work on a larger scale
It's work was slowed down by
World War II. However, the au-
Ithority built about $500 rent
houses and about 1000 units oi
temporary housing.
The present plans under the
1949 Housing Act is building about
1000 more dwellings. The Stan
ton Dwellings, at Stanton road
and Alabama avenue Sc, de-
signed to accommodate 348 fam
lilies. Isl about completed and two

Mr.. Ring started in newspaper
work on the Washington Time;
and, after going to the Herald
for a short time. returned to the
Times. In 1929. he left to be-
come secretary to the Senate Dis.
trict Committee and remained
there for four years.

When the Democrats came intt
Office, the then Senator King, who
became head of the committee
recommended him to the Public
Utilities Commission to make 9

ton. His survey furnished the
basis of the Alley Dwelling Act
Mr.. Ihlder was appointed director
of the organization and Mr.. Rims
was appointed his assistant.
Mr.. Ihlder, who is retiring, ha!
long been an outstanding housing
expert. He served as special con.
sultant to the National Capita

Income axes Bad?
|Excises Take Real
Bite, Chamber Says

If you think income taxes are
bad, you don't know the half OF
lit, the United States Chamber OF
Commerce says.
It reported last night income
taxes make up less than half the
taxes you pay. The heaviest bite
the chamber said. is in hidden
taxes.
"Myriads Of excise taxes at both
the Federal and State levels are
a heavy burden on the low and
middle income groups in particu-
lar" the chamber said.
"Most people are still blissfully
unaware of the fact that large
corporation taxes. excises and
sales taxes have been a major
cause of the high postwar cost
of living"
These conclusions came from a
tax study made for the chamber
by Richard A. Musgrave of the
University of Michigan and Rufus
S. Tucker, economist for General
Motors Corp.
This study found that a person
with $500 annual income pays
about 81 per cent of it in taxes;
a man earning about $4,500 pays
about 33 per cent in taxes; $4,000
about 35 per cent; $500, about
38 per cent, and $1,000, about
43 per cent.
