Four Reds to Die
For Speculation

MOSCOW, FEB. 20 (AP).-
Four Soviet citizens were con-
victed today of specializing in
foreign currency and ordered
shot by firing squads.
The sentences we're decreed
by the Supreme Court of So
Wet Lithuania, which found
four other persons guilty Of the
same crime. They received
prison sentences ranging from
four TO 10 years.
Tass news agency said the
defendants bought and resold
currency for large sums and
lived as parasites. BY their I'M
lawful activity they facilitated
the smuggling of currency out
of the Soviet Union and dam
aged the national wealth"
According to earlier reports
in the Soviet press. several of
the eight had dealings with two
Lithuanian Roman Catholic
priests who were sentenced last
month for specializing in Amer

Russia Raises
Threat Of Pact
BY the Associated Press

The Soviet government was
reported today to be keeping
alive a vague threat to sign
a peace treaty with East Ger
many unless the Western pow
|ers agree to some new status
for West Berlin.
Informants said this theme
has run through the exploratory
talks in Moscow between
United States Ambassador
Llewellyn Thompson and So
Wet Foreign Minister Andrea
Gromyko.
Their latest meeting was
Friday. Mr.. Thompson sent a
report to Washington and AS
sistant Secretary Of State Foy
D. Kohler gave an account yes
terday to British. French, and
West German embassy repre-
sentatives here.
Mr.. Gromyko is understood
to have given Mr.. Thompson a
memorandum of the Soviet
demands on the Western pow-
ers with respect to West Berlin.
In an earlier session Mr..
Thompson had presented the
Western stand on various is
sues to Mr.. Gromyko in written
notes.
Mr.. Gromyko's memorandum
was reported to give no indi-
cation Of Soviet readiness to
compromise. Informants said
the Russians still are aiming at
getting the forces Of the West
ern powers out of West Berlin,
giving East Germany conrtol
OF West Berlin supply lines,
banning close West German
West Berlin ties and otherwise
doing everything possible to
give West Berlin a new status.
Western diplomats said the
Soviet position still affords no
basis for formal negotiations

Government employe leaders
are sharply critical Of the JUS
tice Departments move 70 con-
test the right of Federal en-
ployes freely to petition men,
bers Of Congress on grievances
and other employment matters.
They express confidence,
however. that the United States
Court Of Appeals will uphold
this right if Justice goes
through with its appeal from a
District Court decision.
Last December District Court
Judge Alexander Holtzoff ruled
illegal the firing of a Marine
Corps civilian employe at Bar
stow. Calf. who was dismissed
because he wrote and collected
signatures on a petition sent to
his member Of Congress COM
planning of working conditions
at the Marine base there.
Judge Holtzoff declared that
Federal employees not only have
the right to write to members
Of Congress and congressional
committees. but that they do
not have to first show these
letters to their superiors as the
Marine Corps had demanded
that their employees do. Also,
Judge Holtzoff said these pc
titions can be circulated on
Government time as long as
no serious work production
problem is involved.
Age Cites 1912 Act
The case was financed by the
American Federation of Gov
eminent Employees, which con-
tended that the Lloyd-La Fol-
lette Act of 1912 specifically
gave Federal employees the right
to petition members of Con-
gress on working conditions and
other matters. The AFGE also
declared that the Constitution
specifically gives all American
citizens the right to petition
members of Congress.
Judge Holtzoff agreed with
these points in making his
decision.

Terry said he had been in

ordered by the Navy Depart
ment's chief Of information to
appear at a Phoenix (Ariz.)
function. The admiral, it was
said, was then censored because
he appeared on the same plat
form with Senator Goldwater,
Republican of Arizona.
Mr.. Buzhardt said as far as
he knew, the incident involving
Admiral Ekstrom had not been
checked out. This would be,
he explained, a part of the sub
committees third phase of in
quiry relating to participation
by the military in activities to
acquaint the public about the
menace Of communism.
Terry Is Concerned
In his letter to Senator
Thurmond, Mr.. Terry expressed
concern because he had ex-
pressed personal views on the
letterhead of the Copley news
papers. However, Senator Thur
mond placed in the record a
letter from James S. Copley of
the newspaper chain to Gen.
Shoup.
The Copley letter said: "You
will be interested to know that
I fully subscribe to the state
mentS of Mr.. Terry =. :" in
his January "a letter to Sena-
tor Thurmond.
Senator Thurmond said he
called Gen. Shoup about the
matter, explaining, IT said,
General, who in the world
took this paper that is ad-
dressed to my legislative as
sistant in care of my office out
OF the brief case of the official
investigator. Mr.. Hartel, when
ne was over in the Pentagon."
Gen. Shoup said: II cannot
reveal that information. The
Secretary of the Navy has d.
rected me not to reveal that
information"

information has not been furn-
ished to this day. He would still
like to know.

ers have this right.

fight, because it affects all of

REASONS-Justice Depart
ment officials would not COM
ment on what reasons they
would advance in their appeal,
If they go through with it.
However, it's known that
while the Justice Department
does not contest the right of
Federal workers to write and
petition members of Congress,
it feels that there should be
some restrictions as to how
this should be done.
Justice apparently feels that
employees must show these
letters to their superiors and
get their permission to send
the letters to members of
Congress before taking such
action. This is strongly con-
tested by employee leaders, who
declare that the right to petit
ton Congress under such con-
ditions would be meaningless,
since the superiors in many
cases are the people COM
planned about.
Second, Justice feels that
writing or circulating such
petitions should not be done
on Government time. Employe
groups have not made much
of an issue of writing such
letters on Government time,
but declare that circulating
petitions should be allowed on
Government time since it
would be difficult to obtain
such signatures after regular
working hours.

Senator Erwin. Democrat of
North Carolina, chairman of
the Senate Constitutional SUBJ
committee. issued a statement
complimenting the jurist on his
decision and declaring that it
was essential that the rights of
Federal workers to petition
Congress be protected.
Could Drop Case
Federal employe leaders
thought from all this that
everything had been settled,
But last week Justice Depart
ment officials notified AFGE
attorney Edward Merrigan that
they were filing a notice of
appeal. This doesn't neces-
sarily mean that Justice will
go through with the appeal.
1t could decide to drop the
case. But the very fact that
it has filed a notice of appeal
is indication to employe leaders
that Justice at least is seriously
considering such a move.

The present parliamentary pic

A minor bill pending in the
Senate was used by Senators
Mansfield and Dirksen as q
vehicle for a proposed substi-
tute amendment. This is essen
tally the Kennedy administra-
tons recommendation to per-
NIT literacy tests by States only
if applied equally to all voters

dent and members of Congress.
1t also provides that q sixth

as proof of literacy for voting.
For the last two week S
Southern Democratic Senators
have spoken at length against
this proposal. Senate sessions
have not been prolonged but
no other business has been
transacted.

Senator Mansfield will make

Ito the Senate by Vice President
Johnson as follows:
Evening star., 1962-05-06

"Is It the sense Of the Senate
that the debate shall be
brought to a closer"
A two-thirds majority vote
would invoke cloture but Still
leave each Senator one hour to
debate If he wished.
Another Motion
The leadership disclosed that
another motion might be made
Iif the cloture motion is de-
defeated Wednesday. Senator
Mansfield would move to table
the Mansfield Dirksen substi-
tute amendment. Neither Sena-
tor, of course, wants to table
and thus kill the substitute.
They therefore win urge their
party colleagues to vote against
the tabling motion which would
not be debatable.
They hope for an impressive
vote against tahling. This
would lead to a second effort
| to invoke cloture. perhaps in
another week or so. II q sec
ond attempt failed to end the
filibuSter the Senate would pro-
ceed with other business and
take no further action this year
on hteracy tests.
Senators especially active In
behalf Of the Mansfield-Dirk
sen amendment were somewhat
doubtful about success. They
say, however, that good-sized
votes for cloture and against
tabling would strengthen
chances for Senate rules
changes and a civil rights bill
next year.
Southern Democratic Sena-
tors meanwhile relied on their
daily three -man teams" to
keep the debate going. They
contend that the iteracy test
regulation proposal is uncon-
stitutional, impractical and
would discriminate against
many citizens it proposes to

No such move to cut off de-

tempt to invoke cloture and
vote on q Senate rules change

AS the Senate prepared for

Mansfield served notice he

of the cloture motion would
require votes Of at least two

with a 7-foot birdie putt on the

On the front side Bassler
birdied the second and third
by holing puts Of s and Is
feet and the fifth was a 10

footer on the ninth.
BasSler said he is playing
better this year and believes an
