High Court Receives Special Dollar Line Brief

The Supreme Court, In advance
of oral arguments later in the
term. has received q special brief
contending that Secretary of
Commerce Sawyer was improperly
held in contempt for his official
part In the legal fight between
the Government and the r. STAN
ley Dollar shipping interests.
Secretary Sawyer, Solicitor
General Philip B. Perlman and
several other present or former
Government officials and attor-
neys were judged in contempt by
the United States Court Of APP
peals here last spring.
The appeals court declared they
disobeyed its order to give the
Dollar group effective possession"
of controlling stock in the Ameri-
can President Lines. The Govern
ment officials were threatened
with Imprisonment unless they
complied with the order.
Reviewing Various Angles.
The Supreme Court last June
agreed to review appeals from
the lower court ruling on the
stock transfer question. Recently

the tribunal agreed also to review
the contempt judgments against
Secretary Sawyer and the others.
Today's additional brief in be-
half Of Mr.. Sawyer contended he
legally complied with the lower
courts orders. 1t insisted also
that he could not legally be held
in contempt for having performed
an official action on the written
advice Of the Attorney General.
'The order against petitioner,
tMr. Sawyer) has been fully per-
formed according to its terms, I"
the brief stated. "and the re-
spondents tthe Dollars) have not

Remedy Termed Too Severe.
Even II we are wrong in all
these contentious, the evidence Isl
clear that petitioner acted In good
faith in a confusing and am
higuous situation. Under such
circumstances the severe remedy
Of contempt Is not available"
The brief noted that Mr.. Sawyer
has repeatedly voiced his respect
for the courts. he also has great
respect for his own Office, the brief
added, and would not willingly
place that Office In q position
where 1t would be subject to criti-
cism for failure to recognize ALL

Important Proposals
For U. N. on Disarmine
Are Forecast byU. 5.
BY ,hs Assoeio,ed Press

| PARIS, Jan. 16.--The United
States announced today 1t will
have important new proposals to
make to the United Nations dis
armament commission when it be-
gins its work.
American Delegate Ernest A.
Gross made this announcement in
ia speech urging the U. N. Political
Committee to send new Russian
atomic proposals to the disarma-
ment commission. He did not
specify what the new United
States proposals would be.
A spokesman said the pro-
posals would be contained in the
first Of a series of papers on
atomic control and conventional
arms which the United States will
present to the commission. The
new group must start its work
before February 10. probably in
New York.
Asks Silence Of Vishinsky.
In his speech, Mr.. Gross also
called on Soviet Foreign Minister
Andrei Y. Vishinsky to keep hands
of the Korean truce talks now
going on at the front.
Mr.. Gross declared the talks
have been slowed since Mr.. Wish
insky first referred to them here,
and added:
IF there is a relationship be-
tween these two facts. then silence
by the Soviet delegate might con-
stitute a positive contribution to
the end of the fighting in Korea"
The American delegate also
probed deeply to find whether
Mr.. Vishinsky's new proposals
were "a step backward or a step
forward"
Says Place Is Wrong.
He said that the Political Com
mittee was hardly the place for a
full discussion of the plan and it
should be thoroughly studied by
the disarmament commission.
But. he added, 1t would be use
full to know just what the Soviet
Union yisualized by "simultane-
GUS" outlawing of the atomic
bomb and placing into effect in
atomic control.
MIR. Gross also wanted to know
Just what sort of international
control Mr.. Vishinsky meant, and
whether his insistence that in
spectors not interfere with do
nestle sovereignty would cancel
out" the apparent advance inl
Russia's new agreement to permit
on a continuing basis.

To Cancel

Murray And Board
May Recommend
That The Convention
Call Off The Strike

ATLANTIC CITY R-Delegates

today to decide whether to cancel
threatened industry wide steel
strike.
Philip Murray, head of both the
steel union and the CLIO itself.
called the SteelworkerS' Executive
Board together q p. m. EST to
nap plans for an extraordinary
union convention beginning Thurs

Murray and the board are ex-
pected to recommend that the con-
vention call off the strike threat I'M
ill the governments Wage Stahili-
cation Board (WSB) can come up
with compromise solution in the
steel labor dispute.
A walkout of workers in the steel
mills had been set for New Years
Day. But Murray-at the personal
request of President Truman who
said the nation can not stand any
stoppage of vital steel production
called il off temporarily.
The upshot of the meetings here.
while providing forum for airing
the unions wage and other de-
mandS, is expected TO give Murray
a free hand TO call strike some
time in the future if he thinks one
necessary.
Murray has asked for an 1912.
cent average hourly pay boost and
a score of other improvements.
The industry has said no pay or
other changes are justified at this
time.
The union seemingly has little
choice but 10 cancel its strike
plans Mr.. Truman has emphasized
he will use every law on the books
10 prevent walkout. This would
include the injunction provisions
of the Taft Hartley Act.
The administration has clearly
decided that with record steel out

not permit production stoppage.
