wrote a letter which was used by
McCarran and Mississippi Sena-
tor James o. Eastland against adj
vocates of a fair law. When Dis
placed rsons Commissioner
Harry Rosenfield opposed the
McCarran-W Walter Act, L'Heureux
inferentially accused Rosenfield
of abusing his government post
by lobbyingf.
LHeureux has not only lobbied
for restrictive legislation but has
displayed quaint ideas about list
ing descendants of the early
Teutons separately from Jews SO
that different groups could be
identified for Statistical pur-
poses" The L'Heureux record is
that of staunch proponent of the
McCarran ideas hic h include
racial theories reminiscent of the
Third Reich.
Herman Edelsberg, Washing
ton A. D. L. Director, wrote a
letter to L'Heureux which point
ed out that the Visa Divisions
racial inquiries were not in &C
cord with other government regu-
lations and policies. The letter
brilliantly explained how such
policies are not in the best inter-
est of the nation and how "the
abstract and theoretical statistical
considerations are outweighed by
the potentially discriminatory
character of the question and its
mischievous effect on the
strength of our diplomacy"
LHeureux. has not yet answer
ed Edelsberg's letter although
considerable time has elapsed.
Sections 100 through III of the
McCarran Internal Security Act
of 1850 provide for concentration
camps to hold persons who prob
ably" would engage in sabotage
or espionage. Aliens and natural
lied citizens are placed in parti-
cular jeopardy by this and the
later McCarran-W Walter Immigra-
ton Act. The Bureau of Prisons
of the Justice Department has
made known that work has begun
to prepare number of such
camps in anticipation of any
emergency. All this was de-
nounced by President Truman
when he issued two messages on
both McCarran acts which were
passed over his veto. He called
them "hysterical provisions" and
warned that ''the next logical step
would be to burn the books"

DeMille To Do
Moses
BY LEON GUTTERMAN
Copyright. 1852, Jewish
Telegraphic, Agency, Inc.)
HOLLYWOOD

HOLLYWOOD
Cecil B. DeMille, whose current
production 'The Greatest Show
on Earth" is setting theatre at
tendance records in the United
States and throughout the world,
tells me that he has definitely
scheduled as his next producer
director effort the motion picture
version of the life of Moses, titled
"The Ten Commandments"
The picture will relate the au-
thentic early life of Moses as a
handsome and fiery warrior
prince. "The romance of this
magnificent physical specimen
who conquered the lands and
armies to the south of Egypt, and
who attracted the love of the
most exciting women of the day,
is a powerful drama of one of the
worlds great spiritual leaders,"
DeMille says.
The picture will be produced in
Technicolor ON the same lavish
scale as Samson and Delilah,"
with cast of outstanding stars,
and will be budgeted to possess
the quality and spectacular
values that have earned for Mr.
DeMille the title of "Hollywood's
Master Snowman"
DeMille's famous silent film
classic, "The Ten Command
ments," produced in 1923, the
first feature picture to be filmed
in Technicolor and the first of the
Biblical spectacles, was an out
standing popular success.
The screen story of the new
picture will be based not only
upon the account of the life of
Moses as contained in the Bible,
but also upon the accounts in the
Torah, Koran, the Books of Jose
phus and other ancient writings
as well as the modern best-seller,
prince of Egypt" by Dorothy
Wilson and authentic research,
much of which has been unearth-
ed since World War l.
81 feel that the subject of Moses
and the Ten Commandments is
particularly timely today" De-
Mile explains. 'Not only does it
provide all the ingredients for
exciting and spectacular motion
picture entertainment for mass
audiences of all ages throughout
the world, but it is in line with
the spiritual reawakening of all
nations of the free world in these
troubled times.
"A constant stream of letters to
me from all parts of America and
from foreign countries for the
past few years, and particularly
of late, has proved this and has
largely influenced me to the SUBJ
ject of Moses, the heroic figure
revered by Jews and Christians
alike"
DeMille is. already deep in
preparation on "The Ten Com
m a d m nj s." Reproduction
work will require at least year,
he estimates, with actual camera
work scheduled to start in late
1858. The picture will be released

The Express publisher gave this
version of the abdication:
The King had threatened to
step down, but only as bargain
ing point in the hope Prime Min
lister Stanley Baldwin's govern
ment would approve a morgan
attic marriage with Mrs. Simp-
son. That would have made her
the Kings legal wife, but not his
queen.
Times Editor Dawson was closer
to Mr.. Baldwin than anyone in
the government and Mr.. Dawson
would have no morganatic mar
iriage for the King. He consulted
with Prime Minister Baldwin
throughout the discussions on the
marriage proposal, comforting
and encouraging him when the
Prime Minister lost his nerve"
Then Editor Dawson conducted
a campaign in the Times advocat-
ing the Importance of keeping
the crown and its representatives

scandal. Mr.. Dawson was intimi-
dating the King in code. He sue

Before Conventions

Senate Majority Leader McFar-
land said after White House
conference today that Senate prog
ress in the next two weeks will
determine whether it will be pos
sible to adjourn before the ma
tional political conventions.
The Arizona Democrat said the
Senate has started drive to clean
up the backlog of legislation and
is holding longer sessions. But
he added the results will not be
apparent until a little later.
Mr.. Mcfarland pointed out that
the Senate has the Mutual Secur-
ity bill up now: that extension
of the Defense Production Act is
a must. and that the continuation
of the presidential emergency
powers must be dealt with.
In addition there are several of
the big appropriation bills still to
be acted upon.
House Speaker Rayburn. who
also saw the President today, said
the House will have no difficulty
in being clear by the time Repub-
licans start their national con-
vention July 7.

SaItonstaII Hits Limits
On 1853 Defense Spending
BY the Associafed Press

Senator Saltonstall, Republican,
of Massachusetts,, said last night
that the House-approved ceiling of
$46 billion on defense spending
for 1858. If finally adopted, could
mean deliveries of airplanes with
out engines.
Senator Saltonstall, a member
of the Senate Appropriations
Committee which is considering
the House action, said the pro-
posed ceiling on arms expenditures
would not save money in the
long run"

Box Score on Bills.
The House is in good shape. As

the Senate. Here is the box score
on major legislation:
The Budget-The House has
passed a dozen regular appro-
priation bills. It has left only
the foreign aid money bill and &
final deficiency measure. Tht
Senate has passed only three ap-
preparation bills, and even these
are still in joint conference COM
mitteeS.
Foreign aid-The House last
week passed a SCI billion author
ization for next year. The Sen.
ate will pass it this week., but
both houses must then approve
a separate bill making tht
money available.
Economic controIs-Extensior
of price, wage and ALLEGATION con-
trols awaits action in both houses
The Senate Banking Committee
has reported a bill, but the House
committee is still celebrating.
