SoboIev Promoted
To Vishinsky Post

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y.
Mar. A. Arkady Alexandrovich
Sobolev has been promoted to
the late Andrei Vishinsky's post
of chief Soviet delegate to the
United Nations. He has been
serving as acting head of the
Russian delegation since Mr.
ViShinsky's death November %
Mr.. Sobolev's appointment by
the Soviet Council of Ministers
was announced in Moscow last
night.
A veteran of U. N. affairs, Mr..
Sobolev was appointed assistant
secretary general in charge of
the Security Council department
when the international organi-
cation was first set up here in
1916.
He gave up the post three
years later, repeatedly because
of illness in his family in Mos
cow. He later headed the Soviet
Foreign Ministry's U. N. desk
and then served as Russian Am
basSador to Poland.
In 1851, he was named a men,
Der of the Soviet delegation to
the U. N. General Assembly in
Paris and subsequently repre-
sented his government at other
assembly sessions.

scious Eisenhower administra-
ton.
In this case it is also a pa
thetic story Of personal tragedy
that has tested to the fullest
the sense of justice and political
wisdom of Secretary Humphrey
and Assistant Secretary H. Chap
man Rose.
We've tried to handle this
case and all cases in the way
that is right for the Government
and also fair to the individuals
involved Secretary Humphrey
said.
Treasury officials who talked
to this reporter said there we're
no indications that the Treasury
Departments loyalty security
program had been damaged.
The man involved said he felt
the department had tried to be
fair with me-"
Because Of this unsuitability
factor, / knew they couldn't
keep me as security officer. "
he said. They did give me some
time to find another job. I might
have objected to being forced
to resign. but l felt it would
only make matters worse"
He said he hoped that at some
subsequent time he will be able
to get hack in the Government
in some post that is not con-
nected with the loyalty-security
program, and is not regarded as
a sensitive job.
Why had the administration

given this man q boost from Q
civil service Grade 8 (about $4.-

800 a year,?
Mr.. Rose said the man had
security experience in the Coast
Guard as a commander. and also
had helped set up the security
program in the department.
On the question of whether
there was any laxity in the ac-
tons of Treasury. Mr.. Rose
pointed out that the man had
only been in civilian status as
alternate security officer" for
five months when his resigna-
ton was obtained.
II hope that nothing happens
that does him any further HARM"
Mr.. Humphrey said.

Treasury Security Official
Fired for Security Reasons

nate security officer in the Treas
ury Department was denoted
last September and removed
from his security post. On De-
cember 81 his resignation was
accepted by Secretary of Treas
ury George NJ. Humphrey.
There is no need to identify
the man. 1t was not his loyalty
that was in question. It was a
problem involving his personal
life. The facts in his background
were inconsistent with the Eli
senhower administrations secu-
rity standards.
1t all started last September
when Treasury officials learned
that a police call had been made
to the home of the security Off
GER. This brought to light the
first question of his suitability
for the job since his drinking,
and that of member of his fam

And in violation of the standards
of the Eisenhower program. Also,
there had been a period of past
conduct that had not been re-

Defense Will Call
Five More Witnesses
In Patterson Case
by the Asseeiofeo Trsss

BIRMINGHAM. Ala. March 4.
Defense attorneys had four
more alibi witnesses to ques-
ton today before putting Albert
Fuller on the stand to deny that
he had anything to do with the
killing of crime fighter A. L. Pat
terson.
Chief Counsel Roderick Bed
dow said yesterday he hopes to
complete defense testimony to-
day or tomorrow with the ex-
chief deputy sheriff himself as
the final witness.
The 35-year-old Fuller, who
has shown no sign of worry
throughout the almost three
weeks of his trial. is one of three
defendants charged with muir
dering the Democratic nominee
for Attorney General who had
sworn to smash the racketeering
empire for which Phenix City
was Infamous.
Arch Terrell. who was prose-
cutting attorney at the crime
ridden town which attracted

House Unit May Bar
Discharge Penalty
In Reservist Bill

Representative Brooks. Demo-
crat. of Louisiana said today a
House Armed Services Subcom-
mittee probably will refuse to
permit a discharge penalty for
draftees who fail to keep up
their Reserve training.
The subcommittee, which Mr.
Brooks heads. winds up hear
ings today on an administration
bill designed to strengthen the
military reserves. The group
then will rewrite the measure
and present it to the full COM
mittee next week.
The Pentagon has proposed
that service secretaries be
granted authority to give
drafteeS and others discharges
other than honorable if they
fail to keep up to required
standards in the Reserves.
Hard to Stomach"
Draftees now are obligated
to six years Reserve duty after
they finish two years active
service. No effort has been
made to force them to continue
Reserve training, however.
Mr.. Brooks said in an inter-
view the penalty provision would
be pretty hard for Congress to
stomach" and predicted the
subcommittee would strike it out
before sending the bill to the
full committee.
Army spokesman testified
they need some form of COM
pulsion to keep their Reserves
up to minimum strength.
6-MOnth Provision.
The measure also would pro-
vide that youths under 1872
years old can volunteer for six
months training, instead of two
years duty, if they agree to re-
main in the Reserves for
nine and one-half years.
The chairman indicated the
subcommittee has no intention
of indorsing an American Legion
plan to start UNIT now.

ceeded Mr.. Garrett when the
latter's term expired in January
of this year. His son. John Pat
terson, became, attorney general
in his place.
Even if the defense closes its
case this week, however, the
trial might drag on several days
longer. Chief Prosecutor Cecil
Deason has said he plans to call
Is or 80 rebuttal witnesses.
The first three alibi witnesses
questioned yesterday testified
that Fuller had been at the
county Jail 80 minutes or so
before Mr.. Patterson was shot
down outside his Phenix City
law Office June Is.
But Mr.. Deason and two at
sistants from the attorney gen.
erals Office, Macdonald Gallon
and Bernard Sykes. brought out
discrepancies in their testimony
on cross-examination.

U.N. Studies CHARGES
By Egypt and Israel
On GAIA Fighting
by the Associated Press

UNITED NATIONS. N. Y,
Mar. 4.-The United Nations
Security Council turned today
to Egyptian charges and Israeli
countercharges touched off by
Monday nights bloody border
fighting near GAIA.
The explosive tension result
ing from the clashes-in which
80 Egyptians and 8 Israelis were
reported killed-was heightened
by militant statements from the
Egyptian and Israeli Premiers
and Egyptian progress toward a
new Arab military lineup against
Israel.
There was some expectation
the Council would postpone its
discussion of the rival charges
until after a report from the
Egypt Israel-U. N. Mixed Armi-
stice Commission in Palestine.
The commission, which super
vises the 1949 truce along the
Egypt-Israel border, is expected
to meet Sunday on the GAIA
fighting.
Report Sent to Council.
In Jerusalem a spokesman for
the truce organization said its
chief, Canadian Maj. Gen. E. L..
M. Burns, had sent the Security
Council a report on Mondays
clash. Gen. Burns visited the
scene of the incident yesterday.
Should the Council decide to
take up the complaints at once.
either jointly or separately. Am
bassadors Omar Loutfi of Egypt
and Abba Eban of Israel both
were ready to speak when invited
to the Council table. Neither
nation is a member of the IL
nation group.
The urgent meeting was called
after Egypt on Wednesday
charged Israeli forces with "vio-
lent and premeditated agrees
sion" in the 60-mile-long GAIA
coastal strip occupied by the
Egyptians.
The Cairo government charged
Israel's troops with attacking a
military camp near the ancient
city of GAIA, 2 miles inside the
territory, and with ambushing a
truckload of reinforcements.
Israel Files Complaint.
Israel's countercomplaint,
filed yesterday, made no men
ton of the GAIA battle but &C
cused Egypt of continuous
violations" of the armistice
agreement and council resolu-
tions. 1t charged:
Cd Armed attacks on Israeli
troops, 90 raids on Israeli
citizens. 80 Egyptian failure to
prevent such acts. "a assertion
OF state of war and exercise
of active belligerency against
Israeli, including a blockade;
60 "warlike propaganda and
threats and 90 refusal to
negotiate a peace treaty to re-
place the armistice.
The complaint was in line
with Israel's usual strategy of
trying to shift such council de-
bates from particular incidents
to the general Arab Israeli
situation and the need for an
overall, long term solution.

A Union Dream Comes True

There will be. moreover, a
new slogan in politics: whats
good for the CIO-AFL is good

While the Republican Party
will have to depend ON some
OBJECTIONS of local unions for
support and will be busy per-
suading housewives that the
big union will halt the salary
rises of the skilled worker, the
vast majority Of the Is million
members of the big merged
union will be forced to line up
on the Democratic side under
penalty OF losing their jobs.
Control of employment is in
many industries today exer-
cised by unions.
The Republicans will have to
look to the white collar en-
ployes and to more farm votes
for help at the polls. Already
there are farm organizations
crying out that the labor
union monopolies are forcing
up the prices of farm equip
ment and other things the
farmer has to buy. The merger
will not mean a separate labor
party, but it can mean a more
powerful bloc Of labor votes
than ever before.
President Eisenhower's mes
sage to the newly merged Or
ganization is significant. He
warns against any disregard
of the rights Of minorities"
and plainly challenges the
concept that the members of
a big organization of this kind
will think alike on political or
social problems. 1t is. Of course,
a bit of wishful thinking
what the Republicans hope will
happen. But Job control means
political control.

Politicians, of1icehplders and
prospective office-seekers who
hope to be elected on President.
Eisenhower's coattails feel that
their own political future de-
ponds largely on whether the
Chief Executive runs next year.
In their public entreaties
these people overlook the fact
that the burden of the presi-
dency in the United States
can be carried effectively only
by a person with unimpaired
health.
The exalted Office is unlike
that held by presidents In any
other country. The President
of France, for instance. is a
gentleman of leisure. His po-
litical responsibilities are con-
fined merely to consulting with
politicians in the event of a
cabinet crisis. The Parliament
decides whether his choice for
Premier is acceptable. 1t is the
Premier who has all the head
aches and responsibilities of
government. The French Presi-
dents chores are to attend
diplomatic functions. social
hunts in the forest of Ram
bouillet near Paris. lay corner
stones for public buildings and
unveil monuments.
The same thing applies to
other free republics. Very few
people even know the hame Of
the President of Switzerland.
The President of Germany is
a mere flgurehead, as are the
Presidents Of Italy and Por-
tugal or the monarchs in con-
stitutional monarchies. The
prime ministers are responsible
to their parliaments and carry
out their Official burdens with
the help Of cabinet members.
Also in the totalitarian
states the normal heads are
figureheads. The Soviet Unions

so in this capital secrets invite
investigation. The probable
result Of the privilege now be-
ing claimed. IL 1t is adhered to,
will be a Senate resolution
calling for special prosecutor
to unearth all the facts in the
Dixon Yates story.
Lacking all the facts, no one
has yet managed to put the
President in perspective on
yates except as
O'Mahoney sought to do it in
his examination of Strauss.
That is the way the issue will
go into the campaign next year
unless it is altered by events.
There is as yet no informa-
ton about who advised the
President to bring the Acc,
with all its vital work, into the
picture as a power broker or
who persuaded him personally
to order it to make the con-
tract after a commission ma
jority had refused to do so.
That the contract was bum
gled> in execution and subse-
quently is now admitted by the
administration decision to re-
pudiate it. But there is no
word that the President has
reprimanded those responsible
for his endorsements in the
matter, both personal and po-
litical.
The end result is to trans
form the contract from a pri-
vate versus public power fight
into at the very least a series
of bad blunders by the reform
administration. The present
hearings show what the Dem
ocrats are doing with it.

Strauss Refuses to Give on Inch
Under O'Mohoney's Direct Fire

Yates last month>on the ground
that 1t was worked out in vio-
lation Of the conflict of in
terest" statutes. The supposed
offender is Adolphe Wenzell, a
New York banker. who while a
consultant with the Budget
Bureau conferred with Dixon
on the contract financing. The
terms were later handled by
Wenzell's then employer, the
First Boston Corporation,
which declined a fee.
O'Mahoney recalled that the
President ordered a complete
chronology" of the contract
which omitted Wenzell's name
when it was released to the
public He read the Presidents
later assurances to reporters
that Dixon Yates is an open
book: you can go to the Budget
Bureau and the Acc and get
all the facts"
yet you plead technical
tiles" O'Mahoney said scorn-
fully. II suggest you go back
to your Office and pray over
your decision.
Whatever its legal status, the
privilege" claimed by Strauss,
Budget Director Hughes and
the Securities and Exchange
officials involved. puts them in
the position of seeming to
shield secrets. In their effort
to protect someone-the Pres
ident. Adams or whoever 1t
may be-they are exacerbating
the issue they would fervently
like to bury.

It is he alone, and nobody

According to knowing per-

He is said to worry less about
