Mrs. Luce Says U. 5. Puts
Reds on Peace Defensive
BY the Assoeioted Press

NEW YORK, April 9.-Clare
Boothe Luce, Ambassador to
Italy, says the Eisenhower ad-
ministrations foreign policy has
forced Soviet Russia to adopt
a peace defensive"
At an America Italy Society
dinner last night, Mrs. Luce said:
This administration reflects
and holds the view that, once the
Communists fully appreciated we
intended to get strong and stay
strong, and had done with ap-
peasement, the Soviet would
back down.
To-day Soviet Russia, in the
face of the Eisenhower and
Dulles foreign policy. has gone
on the peace defensive.
ut has not acted in the face
of weakness. It has reacted in
the face of strength. It is now
our task to keep Soviet Russia
on the peace defensive every
where"
The new Ambassador is sched-
uled to leave for Rome Tuesday.

Spencer Urges Steps
To Prod District
On Civil Defense

Commissioner Spencer today
declared that steps must be taken
to make the city's civil defense
program more alive"
Mr.. Spencer made the observa-
ton after hearing from John E.
F'ondahl, District director of Civil
Defense and three members of
the practically defunct Civil De-
fense Advisory Council.
Purpose of the call was to get
the Commissioners ideas on
whether the Council should be
reactivated. In the course of
the discussion. Mr.. Fondahl de-
plored the complete apathy
throughout the city, that exists
toward civil defense.
John Lemp, of the Washington
Board of Trade and a member of
the old council, said he favors
disbanding the group because OF
the public apathy and because
the council hasn't anything
to do.'
Mr.. Lemp was opposed by two
colleagues, Herbert P. Leeman,
of the Federation of Citizens AS
Sociations, and Richard F. Ware,
jr., representing the Federation
of Civic Associations. They ar
gued that residents should be
constantly prepared for civil de-
fense, and that the Advisory
Council offered a means for ef-
fective participation. Mr.. Ware
added that the whole civil de-
fense program is handicapped
also by a 1ack of enthusiasm" on
the part of the Federal Govern
ment, which. he complained, con-
sistently fails to appropriate
enough civil defense funds.
Mr.. Spencer declared that, if
the civil defense program is stim-
ulated, as he thinks it should be,
there will be a definite need for
an advisory council. Mr.. Spen-
Ger and his fellow commission
ers agreed to go into the subject
further at another conference
later this month.

tenn where leave could be ac-.
cumulated without any restric-
tions, subject only to the so or
80 days leave maximum.
Mr.. Rees and others feel that,
while many agencies have busy
periods when employees cannot
be spared for vacations, there
are other times during the year
when things are slow and the
employees can take a good por-
ton of their leave.
OF course, this could result in
some inconvenience to employees,
since they could not always take
their vacations at the exact time
they wanted them. But it's felt
this would be better for the en-
ployes than having the Thomas
use-it-or- -lose-it leave ban re-
main on the books. At least the
employees could accumulate some
leave under the plan proposed.

Liberation OF East Germans And
Armed Alliance With West Are
Platform OF Reelected Adenauer

BONN, Germany ,R-Germany's
victorious Adenauer Tuesday be-
gan welding new German gov
eminent dedicated to the ''libera-
ton" Of East Germany and close
armed alliance with the West.
The 77-year-old Christian Dem
ocrat chief opened talks with poll
teal leaders on the shape of his
new administration after thanking
West Germans Monday night for
the votes that put him firmly in
the saddle for another four years.
Speaking to huge victory rally
gathered in the Bonn town square,
Adenauer spoke of his desire to
release the Is million East Ger
mans from the yoke of Soviet
oppression and slavery"
The chancellor's consultations
on his new government were ex-
pected to be short. Some sort of
coalition seemed inevitable.
The voting Sunday gave 48
Bundestag seats to the Free DEM
ocrats and Is to the German Party,
both members of Adenauers gov
eminent bloc since 1949; 3 to the
Centrist Party, which henceforth
said it would vote along with the

Chancellor; and 81 to the new
Refugee Party formed by the mil
lions of fugitives from Communist
occupied East Germany.
The opposition Socialists gar
nered the other $50 seats.
Adenauer certainly again will
include the Free Democrats in
the government, giving him a
safe majority of 81 votes.
He limited to reporters Monday
night that he might also continue
his previous alliance with the
German Party, telling the news
man the election had shown the
peoples faith in the old grouping
and that would be borne in mind
in the building Of the new gov
eminent.
There was also speculation that
Adenauer might try to bring in
the refugee faction. Its 27 depu-
ties would give the chancellor the
tWo-thirds majority necessary to
change the constitution and auth
orize German rearmament if the
West German supreme court de-
cides the projected German par
ticipation in the European Army
is unconstitutional.
The refugees are interested
chiefly in one thing-getting back
their homes in Soviet occupied
East Germany and in the German
territories Poland and Russia have
held since the Potsdam conference.
The elections, which went off
in complete calm, left the extreme
right fhe neo-Nazi German Reich
Party and the extreme left (the
Communists without a seat in the
Bundestag.
More than IS percent Of the 50
million eligible voters went to the
polls.
The West hailed the triumph of
Adenauer's forces with obvious
relief and pleasure Official state
ments from Washington, London
and Paris expressed great salts

cal issues.

This is Mr.. Manley's first visit

He was surprised to see for him
self that Alaska is already COW
erred deep in snow and its people

Miss Stiegelmeir, leaving for the
