Figure in Spy Case
Rouse Canada S Ire
By Peter Lisoqor

The Harry Dexter White spy
case has spilled across the border
to nettle Canadian American re-
lationS, less than week after
President Eisenhower's goodwill
mission to Ottawa.
The Canadians, who always
bristle when a congressional
committee inquiries into their af-
fairs. have politely tried to con-
ceal their irritation over a SEN
ate groups plea to question Igor
Gouzenko.
Gouzenko. a former Soviet
Embassy clerk, was the prize wit
ness in disclosures of a Russian
atomic spy ring back in 1946.
A few days ago, Ottawa turned
down a request from Chairman
Jenner Of the Senate Internal
Security Subcommittee that
Canada permit Gouzenko to be
questioned by his investigators.
The State Department made the
request.
New Refusal Expected.
A second request has now
gone forth again with the sup
port of Secretary of State Dulles,
that the Canadians relent in
their refusal to allow Gouzenko
to tell what he might know about
espionage activities here during
and after the war.
Canadian External Affairs
Minister Lester B. Pearson has
indicated he will repeat his re-
fusal unless Senator Jenner has
some new information or new
factors bearing on the case"
Committee sources have said
there is such new information in
the second request, but this point
is disputed by diplomatic sources
here.
Meanwhile, the Canadians are
more than a little miffed by
what they regard as breach of
confidence arising from Attorney
General Brownell's testimony
before the Jenner committee
last Tuesday.
Disclosure by BrOwneIl.
Mr.. Brownell declassifed a
top-Secret letter from FBI Chief
j. Edgar Hoover to the White
House February 1, 1916, relating
to the White case, in which Mr..
Hoover spoke of Canadian
sources of information.
The Canadian Embassy here
has made what one source calls
a verbal inquiry into the mat
ter at the State Department.
The pursuit of Gouzenko, who
Is a ward of the Canadian gov
ernment and reportedly under
constant guard, was started
when a newspaper account of
an interview with Gouzenko
quoted him as saving he had
additional information on United
States espionage.
Viewed as Intrusion.
Mr.. Pearson, in rejecting the
first request, said Gouzenko said
he was miSquoted, that he had
no more information than that
he gave the royal commission in
1916. This, Senator Jenner dis
putes.
Canadian sensftivity to what
Is regarded as an unneighhorly
intrusion, to put the most polite
construction on it, goes back to
1851, when the Internal Security
subcommittee brought out the
name of an official in the foreign
Office in Ottawa.
A second refusal by Ottawa
will amount to more than just a
rebuff to the Jenner committee.
because it has the sanction of the
State Department acting for the
Government.
In any event, the atmosphere
of good will which the President
left in his wake last week has
been more than a little disturbed
by the affair, diplomatic inform
ants here agree.

er day and we had chat about the
times when he sent all over the
country for the college teams to
come to Chicago to play at the new
Savoy Ballroom. Had he kept 60
ing, he might have been the Abe
Saperstein of basketball.
Let's go back to the days when
the Black Yankees played at 145th
Street and Lenox Avenue, and they
had a kid playing second base nam
ed Kindle, direct from Springfield
College where Ma Yergan and Pug
Gibson also attended classes :.
About that same time the Lati-
more brothers had the Smart Set
Club, promoting track meets at
one of the big armories here in
New York At that time Pete
White was star Splinter d. And
Roy Morse, Irving Howe, Sol But
Ter and Howard Drew dominated
the sprints. Remember the time at
the National A.AU. Meet in New
York when Joe LOOMS came from
Chicago and ran away from all of
US in the final of the 50-yard dash
one Of the few times Howard
Drew was ever beaten. Do you re
member the rhubarb at the 1882
Olympics when Ralph Metcalf and
Eddie Tolan ran a terrific race in
the 20O-yard meters? Who won is
yet a problem as they had no
photo finish cameras in use at
that time.
AND DO YOU REMEMBER
Percy Verwayne, the now retired
actor, running those 800 yard races
at the New York A. G. games on
that hard cinder track, and how he
complained about his feet? And
the late Hunter Johnson who was
trainer of the famous Pittsburgh
track team and who went to all
the track meets and took care of
all the colored athletes just for
the kick he got out of it . . and
without pay too! He caught me
eating peanuts just before one OF
the big meets and would't let me
go out with the boys to see the
sights of New York which were
new to me then. Those were the
days WREN all the boys spent
their time at Jesse Ship Pool
: Room. on Seventh Avenue near
134th Street to keep away from
the girls, and the fighters trained
in back of Mrs. Whites Place at
2O5 w. 134th Street. 1t was the
only place they had to train at that
time. That's where l first met the
great Harry Willis =. And Frank
Forbes, now scout for the New
York Giants, was the greatest all

statement at the committees
biennial meeting in Richmond,

The bishops called on Cath
olics to undertake the elimina-
ton of all un-C Christian practices
and patterns in the South.
Urging Catholics to "set the pat
tern" in improving race rela-
tions, the prelates said:
"We sincerely hope that the
day will come when the ideal
of Christian brotherhood will
displace from our southern scene
all traces of the blight of rae
ism"
But despite the signs Of prog
ress, religious leaders continue
to point out that the fight for
equality is still in its early stages.
A report adopted by the Cen
eral Assembly Of the Presby-
terian Church in the United
States Of America described the
racial situation in the United
States as still explosive"
1--WE should remember" it
said, that every instance of
racial discrimination is detri-
