Gates Refuses 10 Tell
Whereabouts Of Reds
Who Fled Jail Terms

John Gates, imprisoned Com
munist editor, today refused to
say whether he knew the where
abouts of three Communist Party
leaders who fled from Jail sem
fences after being convicted Of
conspiring to advocate overthrow
of the Government.
Gates, one of the II top Reds
convicted, was brought from a
District Jail cell to complete tes-
tlmony before the Subversive Ac-
tivities Control Board.

Henry Winston.

Mr.. Paisley persisted.

shot back.

ed. He said he did not intend to
insist upon an answer to his
question.
Decision Made on Direction.
Later, Gates said, it was decided
that the two party National Com
mlttee members not convicted at
the 1949 trial, along with alternate
committee members. would direct
the party while its leaders were in
Jail. The two were William z.
Foster, party national chairman
who was excused from trial be-
cause of his health, and Mrs.
Elizabeth Gurley Flynn, now on
trial in New York on a charge.
The witness denied that there
was a decision among the II about
who would surrender. He said
his first knowledge that four of
the II had fled came after he was
in custody. One of the four later
was captured.
Earlier, Gates refused to con-
cede the existence of a world

Mr.. Kefauver also took a crack
at Gen. Eisenhower, again with

Rayburn Doubts Bill
On Steel Plant Seizure
Can Be Passed Now
BY the Associated Press

Speaker Rayburn, asked about
the possibility that Congress might
enact steel seizure legislation as
requested by President Truman,
said today he doubted if anything
on steel could be passed now.
The Texas Democrat was ques-
toned by reporters when he and
other Democratic congressional
leaders left the White House after
their usual Monday morning con-
ference with President Truman.
Vice President Barley and
House Democratic Leader McCor-
mack sat in on the conference.
Meanwhile, the Government will
try this week to start enough steel
flowing from the Nations strike
closed steel mills to prevent a Grip
ping halt in the production of
weapons.
The White House announced
that four-man committee of the
CLIO Steelworkers had been direct
ed by union President Philip Muir
ray to help work out an accept
able plan for meeting defense
needs for steel.
Both the union and industry
agreed when wage negotiations
collapsed last Monday to permit
sufficient steel production for
essential defense items.
So far the Government has an
nounced no specific plan for this
output. The White House said a
plan had been worked out to
transport steel stored in struck
warehouses to weapons manufac-
turers.
Already nearly 3h million tons
of steel has been lost since the
mills shut down, with SO per cent
of the Nations normal steel out
put cut of. Production had been
running just under 100000 tons
"a day.
The White House continued to
give no hint Of whether President
Truman will follow the recon-
mendation OF a Senate-adopted
amendment calling on the Presi-
dent to invoke the 80-day no.
strike injunction clause of the
Taft-Hartley law. The Senate
voted last week to tack the
amendment on q measure to ex-
tend wage. price, rent and pro-
duction controls.
The House still must act on the
measure and is expected to fol-
low the Senate. Presumably this
vote will come before the controls
act expires June 30.
