This experience clearly shows
that the only way we can get cheap
and abundant electricity is for the
people to do enough of the job
themselves through public agencies
and co-ops to provide an effective
standard of costs and service.
1--WE know how to make cheap pow
er. We've had plenty of experience
in the Tennessee valley, at Grand
Coulee dam, at Bonneville, on the
Skagit river, and in Boulder can
yon And despite all the misleading
statements and the confusion that
has purposely been created, we know
that these publicly-owned power prof.
ects are economically sound. eve
know that theusers of unbelievably
low-cost power from these projects
are retiring the public's investment
over the reasonable lifetime of the
properties, meanwhile paying all ex-
penses of operations.
I'VE know that not one of these
projects is supported at taxpayers
expense. They have helped create
vast new industries and expanded
agriculture. AS only one result,
they have increased the tax base
of these areas by amounts far
greater than the cost of the ia
cilities.
These projects in themselves are
sound from every viewpoint. No one
seriously doubts that Hells Canyon
would be, too
Commercial utilities are not en-
lowed with a God-given right to gen

The difference, Voorhis said, is
$8.40 a ton of 1870 concentrated
superphosphate-a saving of ST.
100000 year for one fertilizer
company "owned by the farmers
themselves through their local and
regional co-ops." This saving is
passed back to the farmer himself
who owns the coop and buys the
fertilizer"

NOTES OF INTEREST

A group of people, imbued with ar
idea, formed credit union in 1910
Their growth, in those early years
was not great but they continued to
Spread the idea to their neighbors,
their friends and their associates I'M
til, finally, after seven years of OPP
GRAFTON they paid their first divi-
dend, thus reaching an important
milestone. Their first dividend? Ac-
tually, some two years prior to 1947
they accepted loan insurance which
provided their members with a non
cash dividend. This step was follow
ed by acceptance of share insurance
another far-seeing advance.
The assets of this credit union was
100000 Tin round figures) after
seven years of operation. One year
ago their assets totalled a little over
S28,000.00, and today their assets
amount to well over $52,000.00
In the space of few lines of
type we have given you a thumb
nail sketch of a growing credit I'M
ion, but who, save the officers and
members, can know of the struggle
and energy expended by those
good people.
This could be the story of any
credit union in Montana. 1t shows
what can be done in credit union ac-
tivity when the officers and men,
bers have a deep interest in their
credit union-a profound faith in
their ability-and, finally, the will
ingness and know-how to push their
energies in the right direction.
We would like to congratulate the
officers and members of that credit

Talks Resume Today
In Newspaper Strike;
u. 5. Acts 10 Aid
BY the As.oeiossd Pres.

NEW YORK, Dec. 3.-Pub-
fishers and AFL Photoengravers
Of New York's six silenced news
papers still were deadlocked to-
day in negotiations which may
set a pattern for other union
contracts.
Talks broke down temporarily
about midnight and will resume
this afternoon-sixth day of the
strike.
In Washington, the Govern
ment set up three-man panel
of mediators to help settle the
walkout.
Federal Mediation Director
Whitley p. Mccoy told publishers
and strikers in a message:
"It is my earnest hope that
renewed efforts by you with the
aid of these representatives of
the service will serve to bring
about an early settlement and
resumption of publication"
Other Considerations.
The talks appeared weighted
by considerations far more rang
ing than the $3.75-a-week pack
age wage difference that is
blocking agreement between the
six publishers and approximately
400 striking photoengravers.
Contracts with five other
newspaper unions expired Octo-
ber 81, the same date as the
photoengravers' contract. and
whatever settlement is reached
with the engravers may have a
bearing on the type of new pacts
to be reached with the others.
The publishers made the same
$3.75 offer to each union.
While these AFL unions are
not on strike. they, along with
the CIO-American Newspaper
Guild, backed the engravers'
walkout by refusing to cross the
engravers' picket lines. They
number about 10000.
Drops Daily Editions.
The New York Enquirer, a
Sunday tabloid, which began
printing daily editions during the
strike, announced it was drop
ping its daily editions.
Lack of newspaper advertising
has caused department store
Christmas shopping to fall off.
Pay was stopped last night
for most of the 20,000-odd en-
ployes of the six struck news
papers whose action in honor
ing the photographers picket
lines forced the papers to close.
The Herald Tribune, which has
been going through the motions
of putting editions together, is
continuing regular pay.
During yesterdays develop
mentS the photoengravers turned
down the appeal of their inter-
national president, Edward j.
VolZ, who had urged the union
to accept the publishers request
for arbitration.

; Spy Suspects Kept
u. 5. Jobs After FBI
Report, Probers Told

The Senate Internal Security
subcommittee today received
FBI summaries indicating that
Frank Coe. Solomon Adler and
Victor Perlo stayed with the
Treasury Department long after
their suspected Communist spy
activities were reported to top
Government officials.
The summaries did not dis
close the details of information
gathered by the FBI and fur
nished to the White House, JUS
tlce Department, Treasury De-
partment and several officials
between late 1945 and mid L 948.
The material read into the
record at an open meeting to-
day was an elaboration of
charges by Attorney General
Brownell last week that the Tru-
man administration retained or
promoted the late Harry Dexter
White and several others despite
FBI warnings in 1945 and 1916
that they might be spies.
The subcommittee earlier to-
day held a long closed session
repeatedly to discuss plans for
an intended interview with Igor
Gouzenko in Canada.
The subcommittee late yester-
day announced that it would
comply with terms laid down by
the Canadian government con-
corning any testimony by the
former code clerk at the Soviet
Embassy in Ottawa.
Seek Spy Ring Links.
The subcommittee hopes to
talk with Mr.. Gouzendo to de-
termine whether the Soviet spy
ring he exposed in Canada had
any links in the United States.
The Canadian government de-
clared that publication of any
testimony he might give should
be subject to approval of Cana
dian authorities and the sub
committee yesterday agreed to
this after Secretary of State
Dulles sided with the Canadian
stand.
In making public the dates on
which FBI summaries concern

whether to try to dispose of the
two long planned roads.
Asked if he personally favors
removing them from Park Serv-
ice control, Mr.. Wirth said he
had no comment.
About 10 days ago, however,
Mr.. Wirth told a reporter he did
not consider the two roads to be
true "parkways." as his service
uses that term.
He had mentioned this by way
of Illustration. in expressing op-
position to Federal approval of
nearby Maryland's inter-county
belt route as parkway" Under
Mr.. Wirths definition. a parkway
is IAN elongated park, with a
road usually used to connect two
or more parks" He said the
George Washington Memorial
parkway and the Mount Vernon
Memorial highway fall within his
parkway deIlnlClon.
Differences over definition of
the term are expected to play a
big part in a Federal court suit,
filed by three Montgomery
County. families, who are chal-
lenging legality of the belt route
They contend the National
Capital Planning Commission has
no authority to approve use of
parts of Rock Greek Park near
their homes for the belt road.
The planners had said they
were able to approve the road
tentatively with assurances that
it would be of substantially a
parkway standard"
Evening star., 1953-12-03
to the Park Service from the
Public Roads Administration.
Legislation Cited.

The legislation, one park Off
cial noted, stated that the park
way was to be an extension of
the park system of the District, f"
and was to be operated "aS a
limited-access road primarily to
provide dignified, protected,
safe and suitable approach for
pessenger-vehicle traffic to the
National Capital. :"
Park officials have held that
the legislation intended that the
intercity parkway be for passen-
ger cars only and have so ordered.
With the Federal portion nearing
completion, meanwhile, business
men and residents along U. S.
Route have renewed efforts to
get some trucks off the accident
laden "Old Bloody" and onto the
parkway.
The citizens. along with may
ors and councilmen for 10 COM
munities in the area, met last
night to organize as the Mary
land-U. S. l Safety Council. A
steering committee of II was
named to plan strategy in their
fight to open the parkway to
truck traffic.
After The Star learned of the
new Interior study, Mr.. Wirth
confirmed that he had been told
to draft the tentative legislation.
He stressed. however, that no
decision has been made on

ing Coe, Adler and Perlo were
sent to various Government Of
ficials, the subcommittee today
followed the same procedure it
began two weeks ago in the case
of Harold CHASER, a former
Treasury official who was asso-
clated with White and was de-
seribed by the FBI as a Commu-
mist spy suspect.
Coe, according to earlier evi-
dence, was brought into the In
ternational Monetary Fund by
White who was promoted to that
organization in February, 1916.
by former President Truman. He
was fired as secretary of the
fund one year ago today when
he refused to tell Senate inves-
tigators whether he ever engaged
in subversive activities.
Was Fiscal Adviser.
Adler held an important
Treasury post as financial ad-
wiser in China and elsewhere
before he resigned in May, 1850.
Perlo, who was described by
Miss Elizabeth Bentley, former
Communist agent, as having
headed a Soviet spy group here,
designed his Treasury post in
March, 1947.
The FBI summaries recorded
by the subcommittee today
showed that Perlo was men,

Adler Mentioned.
Adler, according to the FBI
summaries, was mentioned in
reports to many of the same off,
cials as early as February, 1916,
and as late as July. 1948. to the
Civil Service Commission for
transfer to the Treasury Depart

Only four of the summaries re-
lated to Coe. These were all

1946, and went to Gen. Vaughan,

GOuzenkO'S Move Uncertain.
Mr.. Gouzenko has been living
in Canada in anonymity under
protection of the Royal Canadian
Mounted Police.
Whether Mr.. Gouzenko will
agree to being questioned by the
subcommittee is in doubt. He
was quoted earlier this week as
saying he would decline to be
interviewed for fear of jeopardiz-
ing the safety of his wife. two
children and himself. Authori-
ties at Ottawa said last night
the mounted police would find
out from Gouzenko whether he
is willing to be questioned.
The Senate subcommittee
spent part of yesterday pressing
its hunt for Communists and
Soviet espionage in the Treasury
and questioning William Ludwig
Ullman. Ullman is one of the
former Treasury employees
along with White, Silvermaster,
Coe, Harold Glasser, Adler and
Perlo-named in FBI reports as
spy ring suspects.
Repeat Performance.
To a large degree, the session
with Ullman was repeat per-
formance of, his appearances be-
fore other congressional investi-
eating committees.
In even, unruff1ed tones, Ull-
man refused So times to answer
questions relating to espionage
or Communist activities. He said
the answers might tend to in
criminate him.
But the 45-year-old, chain
smoking witness declared he was
proud to say" he was a very
close friend of White. And he
said he knew Silvermaster, Glas-
ser, Coe and Adler.
Ullman refused to say whether
he ever got secret information
from White. CHASER. Coe or
Lauchlin Currie. a White House
administrative assistant under
President Roosevelt. to be turned
over to Soviet agents.
Nor would he say whether he
ever owned a camera or photo
graphic equipment or used them
in the Silvermaster home. where
he lived for eight or nine years.
