SENATOR'S QUESTION

Ridgway was unable to shed much
new light on the Koje incidents
although questioned extensively.
He told us he had left before
detailed report was received on
what actually did occur"
Robertson said the general CON
firmedz areports that the Chinese
Communists "have been building
their troop strength" during the
truce talks.
Sen. Bridges (R-N. H. quoted
Ridgway as saying the prospects
for eease-fire agreement are not
bright and that Communist forces
have grown relatively stronger dur
ing the parleys.
Bridges came TO the hearing
primed with some questions for
the general.
Russell's statement 10 Ridgway
called for breakdown where

OF the Koje incident.

That sense of shock deepened
into shame when | learned that

been avoided.

In S2,S5O,OOO Lias Claim

The Government has decided to
tight out in court its $2,85O, 900
tax claim against William G. Lias.
This was disclosed by the Jus
tice Department yesterday in an
nouncing that it had turned down
q Lias offer to settle for 81 ,600, 900.
Lias, target Of attacks by Senator

and his family own the Wheeling
Downs race track in Wheeling, w.
Va. and have varied other in
terestS.
Lias was acquitted in 1949 of
criminal tax fraud charges. The

was rejected. He explained that
lit was made to put the track back

House Unit Approves
Bill for Dealing With
u. ). Workers Union
: By Joseph Young

The House Civil Service Com
mittee today approved the So
called Little Wagner Act" bill
requiring all Federal departments
and agencies to deal officially with
lemploye unions on all personnel
issues and grievances.
Chairman Murray voted against
the bill.
Mr.. Murray declared the legis-
iation is not necessary. The Ten
neSsee Democrat said Federal en-
|ploye unions already enjoy in
formal working relationships with
the various government agencies
and that any formalization of this
status would not do either side any
good.
Representative Rhodes, Demo-
|crat. Of Pennsylvania, the bills
sponsor. argued successfully that
the measure was necessary. He
declared that while most agencies
did deal fairly with employe
groups there were some exceptions
in which bureaus had anti-union
policies.
The bill would require depart
ments and agencies to deal with
and consult with employe unions
on such issues as grievances, safety
programs, in-service training,
labor : management cooperation,
appeals. granting Of leave, promo
tions, demotions and pay matters.
Also the bill provides that union
officials may organize employees
and collect dues in Federal build
|ings without intimidation or coer-
cion as long as this is done dur
ing non-working hours.
In approving the bill, the COM
|mittee deleted a provision that
would have provided prison terms
and financial penalties for Fed
eral officials found guilty OF dis
couraging union activities in their
agencies.
No action on similar legislation
has yet been taken in the Senate.
