Let's OverruIes Order
Blocking Report on Reds
BY HOWARD L. DUTKIN

Federal Judge F. Dickinson
Let's last night countermanded
an earlier action by a fellow
Federal judge and dissolved q re-
straining order which had for
hidden the Public Printer from
distributing further copies Of a
Handbook for Americans"
The restraining order had
been issued earlier in the day
by Federal Judge Robert N.
Wilkin, a visiting Judge in this
jurisdiction, from Ohio.
In his unusual action, Judge
Let's termed the issuance of the
Irestrainer an "unwarranted and
unauthorized action by the
judiciary" that illegally inter-
fereS with the functions Of the
Legislative branch.
The handbook-thousands of
copies already have been dis
tributed-waS compiled by the
Senate Internal Security Sub
committee. 1t purports to show
how one may spot Communists
and CommuniSt-front organiza-
lions. Among groups listed in
the handbook as Communist
front organizations is the Meth
odist Federation for Social Ac-
ton.
Group Sought Order
That organization, with head
quarters in Gresham, Oreg., had
sought restraining order and an
injunction to prevent further
distribution of the handbook as
long as the organizations name
remained listed.
The Federation denied Com
muniSt affiliations and said it
merely espoused Christian aims.
It said it was listed in the hand
book illegally without a hearing.

PARIS, May 4 (P0.-YugoSlav
President Tito is due in France
Monday to begin a state visit. A
foreign office announcement said
the Communist chief of state

The foreign Office said the
Yugoslav chief would be ac-
companied by his wife Jovanka
who didn't make the British
trip-and Foreign Secretary Koca

New Red Policy
Dulles and Other
Ministers AnoIyze
Aims of Regime

PARIS, May 4 (P.-NATO's
foreign ministers agreed today
the Western world is facing a
new and dangerously agile So
Wet foreign policy based on eco
nomic and cultural penetration.
Reliable sources disclosed the
ministerial council of the North
Atlantic Treaty Organization
reached this conclusion after a
full, secret discussion of Rus
sian plans and intentions under
the new Moscow regime.
These informants said United
States Secretary of State Dulles
referred to what he called the
danger of Soviet domination of
newly independent countries.
They added:
Mr.. Dulles explained that
Russia had progressed indus
trially and set an example that
attracts these newly independent
countries. He said the present
Soviet leaders have not repudi-
ated the Communist idea the
Western world may collapse be-
cause of internal disagreementS
so that the Russians, with an
occasional shove, could pick up
the pieces without going to war.
Report on Reds Visit
British Foreign Secretary Sell
wyn Lloyd led off the discussion
with a detailed report on the
recent visit to Britain of Soviet
Premier Nikolai Bulganin and
Communist Party Boss Nikita
khrushchev.
Mr.. Lloyd and other ministers
who spoke. including Mr.. Dulles,
gave their interpretations of
Russian moves and advice on
how the West must meet the
Kremlin's new look. NATO Of
ficials maintained silence on the
ministerial appraisal of Russia
actions and Western reaction to
them.
Expansion of the 15-nation
alliance into political and eco
nomic fields is a topic in the
sessions, which will continue
through tomorrow. 1t appeared
final decisions on such proposals
will be postponed at least until
December.
Dulles Cautiously Optimistic
Mr.. Dulles was described as
cautiously optimistic that the
Soviet dictatorship might even
tually mellow into a sort of lib
eraliSm under the pressure of
mass education.
He called upon the allies for
unity to support the forces Of
liberalism which he viewed as
emerging within the Soviet
sphere.
Mr.. Dulles warned the other
ministers, however, that Russian
foreign policy tactics, although
they now give less Importance to
violence, might suddenly change
again. He urged them to keep
their guard up.
He explained that in his view
the education needed for the in
creasingly industrialized Soviet
society is giving the Russian peo-
pie more desire for freedom and
personal security.
Mr.. Dulles said there was a

Attorney General Brownell's
office had issued an order before
the investigation began instruct

Department to IDEAL cautiously
with Murray Chotiner in what

The Senator asked Mr.. Chot-

after the Los Angeles attorney,
campaign manager for Vice
President Nixon in 1852, testified
he had visited the Justice De-
partment twice in the last two
years in behalf of a client in

Senate 10 Rush
Soil Bank Vote
BY JOSEPH A. FOX

The new House-approved farm
bill was headed for the Senate
today, carrying soil-bank pro-
gram devised by the Democratic
leadership which promises to
double the ante of the pay-in-ad-
vance plan urged by President
Eisenhower, for which it was
substituted
The timetable for Senate ac-
ton still was to be fixed, but it
was said at the Office of Chair
man Ellender of the Agriculture
Committee, which will handle
the important election year
legislation, that it will be moved
as quickly as possible.
The committee will meet Mon
day to decide on procedure.
The measure is essentially that
which was vetoed by President
Eisenhower last month, without
the support price-flxing features
to which he objected.
1t Incorporates mandatory
supports for small feed grains
rye. oats. barley and grain
sorghums-which the President
opposed, but the price levels for
these have been lowered. and
they are tied in with acreage
controls designed to curb the
overproduction he feared.

VETERANS PREFERENCE
John Burris, the director of en-
ployment of the Disabled Ameri-
can Veterans, taxes strong ex-
ception to those who contend
that veterans have an unfair ad-
vantage over non-veterans In
Federal employment.
In a recent speech. Mr.. Burris
took note of moves to modify or
repeal veterans preference. Mr..
Burris said veterans were en-
titled to special preference in
entrance and reduction in force
situations and said veterans as
ia group would not insist on
something that they felt was
injurious to the Government and
the country.
"As evidence Of this, may !
point out that the veterans
organizations did sponsor two
amendments to the Veterans
Preference Act" Mr.. Burris said.
"One required a passing grade
before preference points would
be added. and the other veteran
privilege Of going to the top OF
lists or registers was restricted
to service-connected compenSa-
bic disabled veterans.
] .Mr. Burris also took exception
to those who blame veterans
preference for all the ills in
herent in our merit system"
For example" Mr.. Burris
said. you have heard or read
the statement that you cannot
fire a veteran. May ! point out
that many thousands of them
have been fired, that the records
of the Civil Service Commission
show that since the passage OF
the Veterans Preference Act OF
1914, there have been 20,469
veterans appeal cases. OF this
total, less than II per cent have
been won by the veterans"

The l6-point legislation pro-
gram drawn up recently by six
liberal Senate Democrats in
cluded a promise to work for tax
relief for low income families
and small business.
But there are others in Con-
gresS, like Chairman Byrd Of
the Senate Finance Committee,
who believe taxes should be cut
only if it can be done without
unbalancing the budget or add
ing to the national debt.
Balance Sheet Awaited
Senator Byrd. whose commit
tee will handle any tax bills that
originate in the House. said yes.
terday he will have to await
later information on the Gov
ernment's balance sheet for this
year before deciding whether any
general tax relief can be voted
in 1857.
Senator Byrd said he would
like to see the tax burden re-
duced if the revenue to cover the
reduction is in sight. But he
pointed out that he still stands
for balanced budget as a con-
dillon to accompany tax revision.
In this connection, a Treasury
ofhcial told q House subcommit-
tee last week the administration
probably will have to ask for
another one-year extension of
the present excise tax rates,
which are due to go down IN
April unless Congress passes an
extension bill, The basic 30%
income tax rate on corporations
also will 60 down to $50 in April.
unless extended by the January

Counting the % per cent sur
tax, corporations now pay an
overall income tax rate Of 50
per cent. In view of the present
tense world situation, an extern
sion Of the present corporation
and excise rates is regarded as
almost a foregone conclusion In
reliable quarters at the Capitol.
Other Tax Work Cited
Any bill brought out in the
House to extend these existing
rates would open the door for
liberals in the House or Senate
to propose other tax changes af-
