Hearing Sci for Thursday
On Red Party Registration

A Subversive Activities Control
Board panel will hear final argu-
ments Thursday by Government
and Communist Party lawyers on
whether American Reds should be
forced to register as a foreign
dominated Communist action"
group.
The arguments had been set for
last Thursday before a two mem
ber panel headed by Board Chair
man Peter Campbell Brown, but
were postponed a week. They now
are set for 10 am. Thursday, with
3 hours Of argument to a side.
After the arguments, the panel
will recommend a decision to the
full board, based on hearings
which have lasted more than a
year. The board then will decide
whether to order the party regis
|tration, under terms of the Nc
Carran Act Of 1850.
Registration would force the
|party to open membership rolls
land other data to inspection. An
affirmative board order, however
would be certain to set off 9
lengthy court fight.

U. 5. and Britain Open
Talks This Week on
Mossadegh Proposal
By John M. Hiehtower
Assoeicsod Press Sicff Writer

The United States and Britain
win seek a new approach to the
Iranian crisis in consultations be-
ginning tomorrow or Tuesday on
Iranian Premier Mohammed Mos
Sadegh'S latest proposal for oil
negotiations with the British.
The question is: What to do
about Communist threatened Iran
and how to strengthen the un-
predictable Mossadegh,s govern
ment as the best means of saving
the country from the Russian
bloc.
Information from top official
forces here and initial reaction of
London authorities is that Mossa-
degh's unexpected note to London
on renewing Oil negotiations
makes a completely unacceptable
proposition.
Would Eliminate British.
Mossadegh proposed to elimi-
nate the British government from
the talks and do business on an
unequal basis with the British
controlled Anglo -Iranian Oil Co.
He also would set up list of
Iranian claims for payment by the
company which would virtually
wipe out the company's own
claims for compensation for prop
erty seized by Iran in March of
last year. @
However, American policy max
ers believe Mossadegh's note opens
the way for the British to make a
counter proposal setting forth a
more reasonable basis to get nego-
tiations started. Therefore, Off
cialS here feel the Irian move
offers a new and unforeseen OPP
portunity to find new approach.
Hope To Get Oil Flowing.
If any immediate political good
can be got out of Mossadegh's
latest move, authorities here Sug-
gested. it would consist of getting
negotiations started again and
then discovering some means by
which Britain could permit Iran
ian oil to begin flowing once more
into world markets.
So far Britain and the United
States have stood firm on one
point. It is that Iran must pay for
the Anglo-Iranian oil properties,
which the ranian government has
taken over under naturalization
program. This is unquestionably
the critical issue in the counter
moves to be planned this week in
response to Mossadegh's proposal.

Canned Food Costs Less
Than 1851, Heinz Asserts
BY the Assoeiaied Pres,

PITTSBURGH, Aug. 9.-Fred
c. Heinz, president of the Ma
tional Gamers Association and
vice president of the H. j. Heinz
Co., said today canned food prices
are lower than last year and will
remain relatively stable.
Mr.. Heinz. in q statement,
sharply disputed a contention by
Ellis Arnall. Office or Price Stabi-
lization said, that the summer
drought and the lifting of price
controls from processed fruits and
vegetables will account for a
boost in prices of canned goods
mfr. Arnell seems to think that
current conditions make it possible
for Gamers to go the limit on
price increases" Mr.. Heinz de-
clared. THAT man just doesn't
know the grocery business and its
real boss-the housewife. Nor does
he appear to know that she is
actually paying less for canned
fruits and vegetables today than
she did at this time last year."

Iran 5 Senator's Show
Unexpected Defiance
OF Mossadegh Plea
By the Associated Pres.

TEHERAN, Iran, Aug. 9.-Iran-
ian senators Unexpectedly baked
today at a bill granting Premier
Mohammed Mossadegh almost
dictatorial powers. They put of
final action until the Premier
"clears up doubts" and tells them
exactly what he plans to do with
those powers.
Surprise opposition was voiced
during debate on the third read
ing Of the bill, which would per-
init Mossadegh to rule nearly
every phase of Iranian life by
decree for q six-month period.
Five senators spoke against the
bill. even though one of them
said by opposing 1t he probably
had committed political suicide. /"
Only two defended it on the
grounds such powers are granted
in all countries where "extraor-
dinary situations" exist.
Assurances Sought.
After arguing, the Senate went
into secret session and decided to
name a 10-man delegation to get
first-hand clariflcation and as
surances from the fiery Nationalist
leader.
BY passage of the third read
ing in the Senate the bill would
have become law and the legisla-
tive arm of the Iranian govern
ment would have lost its voice
for the next six months. The
lower house (Majlis) gave its
final approval earlier this week
and the Senate had passed two
readings of the bill in rubber
stamp fashion.
Mossadegh's single-article bill
was drawn up in only the broad
est general terms, pledging to
effect economic, financial, social,
industrial and military reforms.
It provided that Mossadegh could
ask Parliament to make into law
any of the decreed measures he
thought had shown good results
after the six-month period was up.
Some Show Wariness.

Fellow Probers
Coueht Off Guard
By Stevenson Choice
BY George Bevendqe

All last week, Stephen A.
Mitchell kept from even close
associates his impending switch
from Capitol Hill cleanup man to
the Democratic Party's top ad-
Iministrative post.
This was disclosed yesterday as
Representative Chelf, Democrat.
of Kentucky, named the probably
successor to Mr.. Mitchell as chief
counsel Of bipartisan House sub
committee investigating the JUS
tice Department.
Mr.. Mitchell. 49-year Chi
|cago lawyer and close friend Of
Gov. Adlai Stevenson, was named
Friday as the Governors choice
for Democratic National Chair
man.
To take over his job with the
House group, Chairman Chelf Sc
lected Robert A. Collier, SO, q
former FBI agent who has served
Jas chief investigator and assistant
Counsel for the group. Mr.. Chelf
|said he would send kilograms to
other subcommittee members dur
ing the week end, asking them to
approve Mr.. Golfers appointment.
Anticipated the Appointment.
Mr.. Chelf told a reporter he
knew he had lost myself q chief
counsel when he watched Gov.
Stevenson win the Democratic
presidential nomination in Chica-
'go last month.
II felt that way because I knew
how close the two were," he ex-
planned. Knowing Mr.. Mitchell
las do, I was sure Gov. Stevenson
would have a job for him to do.
The only question was what it
would be and when"
Mr.. Mitchell got word last Mon
day that his appointment was
likely. and was distressed about
leaving the committee, Mr.. Chelf
said. But I convinced him the
major organization work already
was done. We were we'll on our
way and the reorganizations al
ready have started in the Justice
Department"
Certain to Be Tabled.
In Chicago, Mr.. Mitchell told
reporters that he had not been
notified of his selection by the
Governor, although he had talked
with Gov. Stevenson by phone
three times last week.
Among Mr.. Mitchell's staff as
sociates in the subcommittee, the
general feeling was that he was
certain to be tabled for q big job
if Gov. Stevenson were elected
President.
But the announcement late
Friday caught most Of them fiat
footed.
They know their boss had
caught a plane for Chicago at
S o'clock. But he had flown to
Chicago on week end trips a few
times previously.

they were lucky. White, after
leaving Darlene, had gone to his
sisters home and fallen asleep in
a chair.
When the Juvenile Squad de-
tectives walked in, he apparently
thought they were picking him
up because the Juvenile Court was
looking for him. 1t. Ryan believes
that is why the youth made no
effort to get out of the dead mans
shoes or get rid of the watch and
ring before going to headquarters.
The tangled story of how White
"a reform school escapee arrest
ed for June assault and rob-
bery-happened to be at, large or
why the police were looking for
him also was cleared up last night.
The Juvenile Squad and the
Receiving Home both say White
was. arrested at 2:30 am. June 4,
shortly after the assault, and was
taken to the Receiving Home at
sos am. by Detective Bernard
Johnson Of the Juvenile Squad
The squads records also show that
Detective Johnson noted that the
boy was not to be released al
this time, pending Juvenile Court
action.
ReIeaSer by Home.
The Receiving Homes records
show he was released at 1:50 pm
that day in custody of his sister,

1t. Ryan said Detective john

authorized the release but the
lieutenant considers it doubtful

case out Of police hands, further
