U. 5. Restates Position
On 111ssues Urged by
Stalin for Direct Talk
•y Ik* Aitecial*d Pr*u
The State Department today com
pleted a survey of 11 specific issues
which Prime Minister Stalin put
forward as subjects for direct Rus
sian-American negotiations.
The department concluded that on
virtually all 11 the Soviet Union
for the last two years or more has
stood in the way of agreement.
Many of the issues are still hanging
lire in the United Nations or the
Big Four Council of Foreign Min
isters.
The idea of a direct Soviet-Amer
ican settlement was turned down
cfflcially yesterday after Mr. Stalin
had said Russia is prepared to use
s suggestion of Henry A. Wallace
that agreement be sought in this
manner. _ _
Official View Summarized.
The State Department’s survey
summarizes the American official
view on the subjects listed by Mr.
Stalin as follows:
1. Arms Reduction. — This has
been under consideration by the U.
N. Security Council’s Commission
tor Conventional Armaments since
the problem of regulation was dis
cussed in the 1946 General Assem
ulv.
2. Atomic Energy.—Agreement on
in effective international control
plan has thus far been blocked by
Russia. In 220 meetings of the
U. N. Atomic Energy Commission,
17 nations have agreed on basic re
quirements of effective control. The
Soviet Union, Poland and the Uk
raine alone have disagreed.
3. German Peace Settlement.—
The two long meetings of the Coun
cil of Foreign Ministers failed to
break a deadlock, with Russia op
posing virtually every proposal put
forward by the United States, Brit
ain and France.
4. Japanese Peace Settlements.—
Of the 11 Pacific Allies, eight are
ready to go along with the United
States on Procedure. Russia has
insisted that the Big Four foreign
ministers must deal with the treaty.
China also has raised procedural
objections.
Evacuation of China.
5. Evacuation of Troops From
China.—American forces are there
at the request of the Chinese Na
tional Government. On March 31
they numbered 1,496 Army and 4,125
Navy and Marine personnel.
6. Evacuation of troops from
Korea.—the U. N. General Assembly
last November 14 adopted a plan
for early Korean independence to
be followed promptly by decontrol
of all foreign forces. Russia and
the Ukraine refused to go along.
Russia barred any election in its
occupation zone and is pushing its
own plans which threaten to lead
to civil war among the Koreans.
7. Respect for national sovereignty
of individual countries and nonin
terference in domestic affairs.—
American and Russian actions in
policies speak for themselves.
8. Military bases—In retaining
armed forces in the territory of
other U. N. members, the United
States is governed by a 1946 reso
lution adopted unanimously by the
U. N. General Assembly. This Gov
ernment has filed its agreements
with other countries with the United
Nations. Russia meanwhile has re
jected an American proposal to the
Security Council that armed forces
acting under the Council have un
limited rights of passage and rights
to use bases wherever located.
Soviet Ignored Trade Parleys.
9. International trade—Represent
atives of 23 countries attended a
U. N. conference on trade and em
ployment at Geneva last year. Fifty
six were represented later In a sim
lar session at Havana, where an
International Trade Organization
and elimination of trade barriers
ivere agreed on. Russia refused to
ake part in either.
10. Assistance to war-devastated
:ountries—World-wide American aid
speaks for itself. The European
:ountries themselves proposed the
present European Recovery Pro
tram, which Russia opposes.
11. Human rights—The United
'Jations' effort to work out a cov
mant la well advanced. This is by
ts nature an international problem
tnd both Russia and the United
States have an adequate forum for
heir views in the United Nations.

and the United States could now be
considered ‘'dead." His only reply
was: “A thing has to be alive first
before it can die.”
A touch of humor was injected
into the news conference interview
when a reporter recalled that Pres
ident Truman had said several times
he would be glad to see Mr. Stalin
if the Russian leader came to Wash
ington, and asked whether Gen.
Marshall would be glad to see Mr.
Molotov if he came here.
‘‘Well,” the Secretary replied, “I;
would certainly see him.”
Real Hope Doubted.
Amreican officials generally are
inclined to discount the possibility
that Mr. Stalin’s latest statement
presents any occasion for real hope
of improved relations.
While the State Department called
the statement ‘‘encouraging,” it is
clear that if any negotiations are to
come out of ihe current round of
Moscow- Washington pronounce
ments, some basis must be found
other than that suggested by Mr.
Stalin.
The State Department in a state
ment yesterday said Mr. Stalin’s
show of interest in reaching agree
ment is “encouraging,” but that the
real questions to be decided embrace
the Interests of many nations—not
just the United States and the
Soviet Union.
British Back U. S. Rejection
Of Soviet Peace Talk Offer
LONDON, May 19 <£■).—1The Brit- j
ish Foreign Office expressed its com
plete solidarity with the State De
partment today in rejecting Russia's
second offer to “talk peace” with the
United States.
A spokesman told a news confer
ence that Britain regarded the
American arguments for not wish
ing to negotiate a direct settlement
with Russia on a basis suggested in
an exchange between Henry Wal
lace and Prime Minister Stalin as
"indisputably true.”
The State Department said yester
day the specific issue Mr. Stalin;
named could not be discussed bilat-'
erally because other countries are
involved.
Stalin Seen Insulting
Truman in Statement
SYDNEY, Australia, May 19 (/PI — '
The Sydney Morning Herald com
mented today that Prime Minister
Stalin’* reply to Henry A. Wallace’s I
"open letter” was “an open insult to I
President Truman and his Govern
ment.”
"Stalin,” the Herald said, "could
hardly have devised a better way of

Bank Gives Government
Miss Kellems' Tax Money
iy the Associated Press
WESTPORT. Conn., May 19.—
Miss Vivien Kellems lost a round
:oday in her one-woman battle
against the withholding tax law.
Her bank notified her it had turned
sver $1,685.40 of her money to the
Government.
The Internal Revenue Bureau had
filed a lien in that amount against
the bank account of her Cable Grip
Manufacturing Co. here.
The Westport Bank & Trust Co.
acknowledged a warning from Miss
Kellems that she would take "legal
steps” to recover the money if it
were paid over to the Government.
It said, however, that it had decided
to satisfy the lien “upon the advice
of our counsel.”
A receipt from James C. Healy,
deputy collector of internal revenue
for Connecticut, was inclosed.

operators that the breakdown In
negotiations might precipitate a
new crisis in the coal fields.
Mr. Lewis and the UMW are still
under a District Court injunction
against a strike resulting from the
recent dispute over miners’ pen
sions. But Government attorneys
do not believe the injunction would
prevent a strike over another issue.
Justice Department attorneys
asked Justice T. Alan Goldsbor
ough yesterday to dismiss the pen
sion strike injunction. The judge
refused, and asked Federal attor
neys to submit a brief outlining
why the order should be dissolved.
Had Issued Warning.
Mr. Lewis had warned before to
day’s session that there would be no
wage conference if the operators
Insisted on seating Mr. Moody.
Mr. Lewis said he would recog
nize Mr. Moody if he obtained indi
vidual representations from the 14
local operators’ groups that make
up the Southern bloc. Hie associa
tions signed the present contract
Individually.
Operators supporting Mr. Moody
were taking the position that Mr.
Lewis should not be allowed to dic
tate who the negotiators for the
mine owners should be. They held
that if the union head chose to
stand on such a technicality it
shows he did not want to negotiate
a new contract. Several operators
described the dispute as silly.
Mr. Lewis described the Southern
Association as "a holding company”
and said it always had thrown ob
stacles in the path of past industry
wage agreements.
In addition to Mr. Moody’s per
sonal fight, the operators maintaih
that under the Taft-Hartley law Mr.
Lewis could not dictate who may
represent the employers in bargain
ing sessions.
But Mr. Lewis said that the 14
Southern groups had signed the
1947 contract which requires them
to negotiate a new one if the miners
want it. He added that failure to
be represented at the bargaining
conference would be a violation of
the contract.
The Southern association was
Formed in 1943 to handle labor re

Marxism in Workers'
Course, GM Aide Says
•y *h« Aueciatad PrMi
A General Motors’ representative
said today that the University of
Michigan Workers’ Educational
Service is promoting “the Marxist
idea of class economics.”
Adam K. Strieker, jr.. Grosse
Point, Mich., employed in GM’s in
dustrial economics section, made
that contention in testimony before
a House Labor subcommittee hear
ing on a bill to establish a Federal
labor extension service.
He said he enrolled in one of the
public courses offered by the Mich
igan extension service. Mr. Strtck
er said his instructor was Sam
Jacobs, an assistant to Victor
Ruther, educational director of the
CIO United Auto Workers.
The witness said the instructor
showed his ‘‘apparent bias” by mis
leading, partial quotes from Gov
ernment documents and by using
UAW and CIO Political Action Com
mittee pamphlets for texts.
‘‘I was surprised,” Mr. Strieker
said, "to find a classroom where the
Marxist idea of class economics was
being presented with the support of
public furids.”
usea taruHm oi nusun.
Among other things, Mr. Strieker
called to the committee’s attention
to a cartoon in a UAW pamphlet
depicting C. E. Wilson, president of
General Motors, at a bullfight jovi
ally applauding and shouting “More,
more” to a bull labeled “Inflation.”
Mr. Strieker said the pamphlet
also had “derogatory cartoons and
inflammatory attacks” on various
Senators and House members.
The CIO-PAC pamphlet used in
the course, he said, urged readers
"to fight against Congressmen who
fought against us” and to "fight
back with a buck to PAC."
Mr. Strieker said he thought the
committee ought to know about his
experience, since other witnesses
have “advanced the Michigan pro
gram as a prototype for the kind of
educational service to be set up
under the proposed bill.”
In Ann Arbor, Alexander G.
Ruthven, president of the Univer
sity of Michigan, denied Mr.
Stircker’s contentions, and said that
on the contrary the extension
course in question had been "care
fully observed” and had been found
"objective.”
Call EfTort to “Discredit."
The testimony, he added, was an
attempt to "discredit” the Mich
igan extension service program and
similar services of other schools.
Dr. Ruthven said the testimony
of persons “thoroughly conversant”
with Michigan’s program has been
placed in Senate and House com
mittee records.”
we irusi, ne aaaea, wi*t mcu
testimony, together with that of
reputable witnesses and educators
from all parts of the Nation as to
the need for an extension service
for workers will constitute the basis
for favorable congressional action.”
Dr. Ruthven said Mr. Jacobs had
a “good educational background”
for teaching the course. He added
that Mr. Strieker’s criticism of Mr.
Jacob's use of UAW-CIO pamphlets
was unjustified. He said Mr. Jacobs
took the pamphlets into the class
room at the request of a student.
Tax Court Ruling Upheld
Against Mrs. Burks
By tht Associated Preil
RICHMOND, Va„ May 19.—The
Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals yes
terday upheld a decision of the
United States Tax Court which had
determined a deficiency of more
than $24,000 in reported and tax
able 1943 income of Mrs. Ethel
Burks of Washington.
The court’s opinion, writen by
Circuit Judge Armistead M. Dobie,
pointed out that Mrs. Burks owned
all the stock of Burks, Inc., and of
the Home Furniture Co. The latter
organization early in 1943 sold its
accounts receivable to Burks, Inc.,
which later in the year paid Mrs.
Burks $24,000 in settlement, the
opinion noted.

Historical Society
Hears Finnish Envoy
There was a Finnish majority in
the New Sweden Co.’s settlements,
begun along the Delaware River in
1638, which was 44 years before the
arrival of William Penn, according
to K. T. Jutila, Finnish minister,
who addressed the Columbia His
torical Society at the last meeting
of the season last night in the May
flower Hotel.
Dr. Jutila explained the back
ground in Sweden that led to the
presence of so many Finns in the
Swedish colonies. From 1580 on, he
said, there had been great migra
tions of Finns into Swedish forests
that had not known the ax and
Swedish fields never broken by the
plow.
At first the Finns were welcome
and happy in Sweden. Then as
the use of wood as fuel (Sweden
has no coal) and for the construc
tion of ships put forests products
at a premium, the Swedish peasants
tired to run out the Finns, and
there were massacres of the smaller
settlements. The head of the New
Sweden Co., Klaus Fleming, was a
Finn, Dr. Jutila said, so many Finns
sought sanctuary in the new world.
Scottish Clerics Criticize
Elizabeth for Paris Tour
By the Associated rress
EDINBURGH, Scotland, May 19.
—Scottish churchmen declared to
day that Princess Elizabeth and
Prince Philip set a regrettable ex
ample for the young by attending
horse races, a theater and a night
club last Sunday in Paris.
The Scottish Association of the
Lord's Day Observance Society sent
Prime Minister Attlee this tele
gram:
“We feel constrained to express
our profound regret that the
itinerary arranged for their royal
highnesses, Princess Elizabeth and
the Duke of Edinburgh (Prince
Philip), while on their official visit
to Paris, included attendance at
racing, theater and night club danc
ing during the Lord’s Day.
“This is contrary to the best
traditions of the British people, and
sets a regrettable example before
the youth of the nation.
"It is sincerely hoped that the
advisers of their royal highnesses
will in future respect the religious
convictions of this Christian na
tion.”

9 University Women
Ask Court to Order
End of Racial Ban
A minority group in the Wash
ington branch of the American
Association of University Women
has asked District Court to stop
the local branch from denying
membership to any eligible candi
date “on the ground of race, color
or religion.”
The Washington branch is en
gaged in court action against the
national association in an effort
to keep itself from being excluded
as a branch of the association.
The national group takes the po
sition that the branch has auto
matically excluded itself because
its bylaws are -in conflict with the
national bylaws on the question of
membership.
A preliminary injunction restrain
ing the national group from taking
action to oust the local chapter
is in effect, pending a hearing June
15 on the issue. The controversy
began 18 months ago over the
Washington branch’s refusal to ad
mit a colored college graduate.
Yesterday’s action was instituted
by a group of nine members, headed
by Mrs. Ruth V. Lyons, who said
they were elected as the temporary
officers of a prospective local branch
of the association at a meeting on
May 7 of members who disapproved
of the local stand.
The plaintiffs declared they repre
sented about 100 of the members
of the Washington branch and be
lieved they were acting in accord
ance with the wishes of about 300
members, or 40 per cent of the
voting membership.
Last month the Washington branch
conducted a referendum among its
members, and the vote was 448 to
297 to uphold the bylaws and mem
bership position of the branch.
Named defendants were the officers
and directors of the Washington
orancn.
“The Washington branch is a
group of university women dedi
cated to the furtherance of broad
'educational ends,” the suit declared.
"It has incurred widespread notori
ety as a result of conduct which
indicates a belief on the part of its
members that these purposes are
consistent with exclusion of emi
nently qualified women from mem
bership because of their color.”
The plaintiffs, it added, “cannot
preserve their personal reputations
of women who believe in education
and in democratic liberties for all,
without regard to race or religion,
so long as defendants persist in their
defiance of the national association
on grounds such as those here in
issue.”
In addition to Mrs. Lyons, the
plaintiffs include Mrs. Laura Puffer
Morgan, Mrs. Edward A. Chapin,
Miss Agnes Leisy. Miss Margaret
Fiery, Dr. Helen M. Strong, Miss

Charles E. Marsh, 73, retired sec

Mr. Marsh was secretary of the

Mr. Marsh was a lifelong Wash
