U. 5., Britain, France
Confer in Singapore
On Asiatic Defense
By th« Auociated Press
SINGAPORE. May 14. — To]
British, American and French mil
ltary officers gathered in Singa
pore today for high level talks 01
the common defense of Southeas
Asia against any Communist on
slaught.
The discussions, termed “o:
great importance” by a high Brit
ish source, will be held tomorrov
and Wednesday in the well-wallec
seclusion of Bukit Serene, th<
palatial official residence of Mal
colm MacDonald, British higl
commissioner for Southeast Asia.
• It was doubtful that any state
ment telling of any major militarj
policy would be made at their con
clusion. It was stressed the dis
cussions will be strictly military ir
nature—not concerned with the
formation of a Pacific pact or
other political matters.
Commanders Attending.
Attending the discussions will
be:
British—Gen. Sir John Hard
ing, commander in chief, Far East
land forces; Admiral Sir Guy Rus
sell, commander in chief, Far East
Naval Station, and Air Marshal
Sir Francis Fogarty, commander
in chief, Far East Air Forces.
French—Gen. Jean de Lattre
de Tassigny, commander in chiei
of French forces in Indo-China
and high commissioner there;
Gen. Fay, chief of staff of the
French air force, who came here
from Paris via Saigon, Vice Ad
miral Ortoli, French naval com
mander in chief in Indo-China,
and Lt. Gen. Pelissier, air officer
commanding in Indo-China.
United States — Vice Admiral
Arthur D. Struble, commander
1st Fleet and former commander
of the 7th Fleet in Korean and
Formosan waters during the early
months of the Korean fighting,
and Brig. Gen. Francis G. Brink,
chief of the United States military
aid and advisory group in Saigon.
All were accompanied by aides
and advisers.
Struble Refuses Comment.
• Admiral Struble arrived late
today by Navy transport plane
from San Diego; Calif., and Ma
nila. He said he had nothing
to say about the coming talks.
Gen. de Lattre reached Singa
pore yesterday and was joined to
day by the rest of the French
contingent.
The suddenly developed mili
tary parley started a crop of
rumors of varied natures in Singa
pore circles ranging from talk
of a Pacific pact to establish
ment of United States air bases
at strategic points in Southeast
Asia. Highly placed sources said
tnese were pure speculation, how
ever.- -
One qualified spokesman said
the situation in Southeast Asia
had eased in recent months. It
was clear, however, that the con
ference would take up plans for
defense of the area should the
Chinese Communists unleash an
attack in force against Indo
china, Thailand or Burma.
Carr Says He Will Run
Against Sasscer Again
Thomas S. Carr. Annapolis Re
publican. planned today to file as
a candidate for the House seat
held by Representative Sasscer,
Democratic dean of the Maryland
congressional delegation.
The election for the 5th district
seat will be run in November, 1952.
Mr. Carr, 38, is an executive of
a radio station. He was the Re
publican nominee against Repre
sentative Sasscer last year and
polled about 40 per cent of the
vote.
He said today that by announc
ing his candidacy so early he
hoped to get a head start in the
campaign, which he failed to do
last year.
“On the basis of the last run,”
he said, “I have been encouraged
to go after it again. In the last
case, however, I began my cam
paign too late to win.”
Since the 1950 election the
Maryland Legislature has redis
tricted the State so that the 5th
district lost most of voting pre
cincts it had in Baltimore City.
Final PTA Meeting
The Parent-Teacher Association
of the Patrick Henry School, Ar

President Signs Bill Allowing
Mrs. Kasenkina to Stay in U. S.
President Truman today signed
a bill to grant permanent resi
dence in the United States to
Mrs. Oksana Kasenkina, the Rus
sian teacher who “leaped to
freedom” from the Soviet Con
sulate in New York.
The bill, sponsored by Repre^
sentative Coudert, New York Re
publican, requires Mrs. Kasenkina
to pay visa charges and a head
tax totaling $18. Upon making
the payment she will qualify for
permament residence under the.
Russian quota.
The bill does not grant her
citizenship.
An International Issue.
Mrs. Kasenkina became a liv
ing symbol of the meaning of
freedom when she jumped from
the third floor of the Soviet con
sulate on August 12, 1948, rather
thah return to Russia.
The seriously injured woman
was picked up from the concrete
courtyard. She wTas taken to
Roosevelt Hospital where no one
expected she would live through
the night.
But she survived and promptly
became a raging international is
sue. The United States granted
the Russian school teacher politi
cal asylum and the then Soviet
Consul General in New York was
expelled from the United States.
Even before the spectacular
leap, Mrs. Kasenkina was the cen
tral figure in a diplomatic tug
of war. She had fled to a retreat
at Valley Cottage, N. Y., from
which she was brought back to
New York in a Russian consulate
car.
She Settled Controversy.
At the time, police were told to
hunt for a “kidnaped” Russian
woman but the then Soviet Consul
General Jacob Lomakin said she
had been “rescued.”
Then the House Committee on
Un-American Activities tried to
subpoena her but couldn’t as long
as she stayed inside the consulate.
New York police tried to get into
the consulate to interview her but
were turned away.
Common Cause, Inc., sought a
writ of habeas corpus in the State
Supreme Court to get Mrs. Kasen
kina out of the consulate. That
was still pending, amid diplomatic
exchanges, when Mrs. Kasenkina
settled the question in her own
way. She leaped to freedom—and
later wrote a book entitled "Leap
to Freedom.”
Billions to Be Asked
For Military Building
A new military building pro
gram, costing several billion dol
lars, is scheduled to be submitted
to Congress within a few days.
When President Truman sub
mitted his detailed Defense De
partment budget for the 1952
fiscal year several weeks ago it
contained a $4.5 billion Item for
public works. Officials said at that
time that the details of the pro
gram would be sent up later.
There were some reports that
the program would run as high
as $6 billion to $8 billion.
It will call for work at almost
every State and at overseas bases,

Fuchs io Be Freed to Work
On Atoms, Newspapers Say
By the Associated Press
LONDON, May 14. — Reports
that Dr. Klaus Fuchs, convicted
atom snv mirrht hr* rplpacpri tn
continue atomic research work
under guard were published by
two local newspapers yesterday.
The Reynolds News and the
Sunday Chronicle both carried
such speculative stories on Fuchs,
and the Chronicle added that Dr.
Alan Nunn May also might be
released under a similar arrange
ment.
Because of the Whitsun holiday
week end. government officials
were not immediately available
for comment.
Both men are serving prison
terms for disclosing atomic secrets
to Russia.
The two newspapers said that
if Fuchs is released, he will be
guarded to make certain no secret
information gets out this time.
A third paper, the Sunday Dis
patch, quoted the warden of Staf
ford Prison as denying reports
that Home Office officials have
interviewed Fuchs with a view
to obtaining his release.

A roofer, captured a few min
utes after a woman Government

what police said was an attempted
criminal assault, was arraigned in
Municipal Court today.

of the 1700 block of Seventeenth
street N.W., was caught after a
foot chase around the apartment
building at 1721 P street N.W.

Wage Stabilization
Not 'Absolute Freeze,'
Board Chairman Says
By Francis P. Douglas
Dr. George W. Taylor, chair
man of the new Wage Stabiliza
tion Board, told Congress today
that "stabilization does not mean
an absolute freeze.”
“Effective stabilization,” he tes
tified before the House Banking
Committee, "brings the general
wage and salary level under con
trol, but allows sufficient flexibil
ity to permit the necessary ad
justments, which a dynamic and
growing economy requires.
The House committee, in addi
tion to hearing Dr. Taylor, heard
Edwin T. Gibson, acting defense
production administrator, and
Jess Larson, general services ad
ministrator. The committee is
considering proposed amendments
to the Defense Production Act,
which must be renewed since it
expires June 30.
Basic Policy Studied.
Dr. Taylor said the Wage Sta
bilization Board is beginning this
week to tackle basic policy ques
tions. He explained that one of
the problems is to determine
whether, when the ceiling of 10
per cent above the wage levels of
January, 1950, is exceeded, this
is an exception or is contrary to
oasic policy.
He told the committee that the
10 per cent “catch up” formula
was but the first step.
"We now have to take additional
steps to round out a full wage
stabilization program,” he said.
“There are, for example, nearly
450 cases where inequities are al
leged.”
The board chairman said it is
clear that the present board lacks
the authority such as was exer
cised by the World War II War
Labor Board.
To Expand Board’s Staff.
Dr. Taylor said the board now
has a staff of about 200 and ex
pects to have about 2,000 when it
develops an effective wage sta
bilization program.
He said he does not know
whether many disputes threaten
ing defense production will be re
ferred to the board.
Meanwhile, Washington was
watching to see what the board
will do about the pressures for
wage increases which would carry
wages in some industries through
the ceiling of a level 10 per cent
above the January, 1950, rates.
Some looked on this as a de
mand by labor for a "sixth round”
of wage boosts since the end of
World War II. Labor, on the
other hand, maintains that the
concept of “rounds” is inappli
cable now that wage increases are
negotiated at different times and
in different amounts.
Some Got Increase in 1950.
Some unions obtained increases
early in 1950. It is maintained
now that these increases were to
meei conditions tnat had occurred
by them and that the wages do
not compensate for the general
price rise since that time.
Other unions which have not
won wage increases since the fall
of 1949 argue that the 10 per cent
level adopted by the former Wage
Stabilization Board should- not
apply to them and that they
should be permitted to exceed the
10 per cent limit on the hardship
case basis. The Capital Transit
Co. union demands are an ex
ample.
Another pressure on the wage
"ceilings” comes from the pro
vision in some agreements to com
pensate for the “annual improve
ment factor.” This amounts to
about 2 per cent in the automobile
industry and 4 to 5 per cent in
some other industries. It is in
tended to compensate for im
proved productivity.
Labor argues that it has been
granted in so many industries it
would be inequitable to withhold
it from others. It Is also main
tained that since this factor is
designed to compensate for great
er productivity it would not
throw the wage-price relationship
out of balance because wage costs
would be unchanged.
Equal Representation Now.
The board now has equal repre
sentation of industry, labor and
the public. The composition of
the board was recommended by
labor and indorsed by the public
members, but with the industry
segment in opposition. The board
was given authority to recommend
settlement terms in labor disputes
in defense industry although in
dustry members wanted its juris
diction confined to fivlntr limit.
for wage increases under the wage
and price stabilization program.
Senator Taft said that under
the present tripartite system,
management and labor groups
could combine to scuttle the whole
stabilization program. He said
Congress may want to consider
revising the board’s composition
so that public members would he
in the majority.
His statement was made in a
supplement to a report by the
Senate Labor-Management Sub
committee. This report unani
mously approved giving organized
labor a full share in industrial
mobilization.
Hearing for 'Scientisf X'
Postponed Until Thursday
A hearing for Dr. Joseph W.
Weinberg, held under bail for con
tempt of court, today was put off
until Thursday.
District Court Judge Alexander
Holtzoff delayed the hearing,
which had been scheduled for to
day at the request of counsel for
both sides.
Dr. Weinberg, known as "Scien
tist X’’ in connection with an
investigation of atomic spying,
refused to answer questions put
to him by a Federal grand jury.
Judge Holtzoff, last Friday, gave
the scientist, a professor at the
University of Minnesota, a last
chance to answer questions. When
he refused the judge ordered him
held in $1,000 bail.
Dr. Weinberg, whtf worked on
atomic bomb research at the
wartime University of California
radiation laboratory, has been ac
cused by the House Un-American
Activities Committee of slipping
atomic secrets to Communists.

The Federal Spotlight*
Employe Groups Hitting Back
At Move to Reduce Leaves
By Joseph Young
Federal employe groups are hitting back at the administra
tion’s contention that they are. receiving too much leave benefits.
* Tbe Civil Service Commission and the Budget Bureau have
joined in the move to have Congress reduce Federal employes’!
present 26 days’ leave privileges.
But employe groups as well as individual workers contend that
uicj cue uui, receiving 100 mucn
leave., %
The“ employes make the fol
lowing points:
1. Government workers don’t
actually get 26
days’ vacation
time, since they
are charged
leave every
time they take
an hour or two
off for person
al matters. Such
things as visits
to the doctor
or dentist, fam
ily illness, at
tending fune
rals or wed
dings, personal
errands and *•»»«•
tardiness, deducted from their an
nual leave. In contrast, most
private employers allow their em
ployes such time off without tak
ing it out of their regular vaca
tion time.
2. The Government’s salary;
scale in many cases is below thati
of private industry and a liberal
leave system offsets this to some
degree. As a result, the Govern
ment has attracted many out
standing employes, particularly in
the scientific and professional
Held, who otherwise would not
have accepted Federal positions.
3. If Government employes’
leave benefits are placed on a par
with private industry, it would
pose the problem whether Federal
workers can be given some time
pff as in private enterprise, for
personal business without being
charged leave for it. This would
pose countless headaches for su
pervisors and would lead to favor
itism, jealousy and lax adminis
;ration.
4. The Government should al
ways be the model employer and
set the standards for the rest of
the country. A liberal vacation
system should be the goal of all
employes and employers in this
country. Therefore, the Govern
ment, rather than reducing its
leave benefits for its employes,
should set the example for private
Industry in giving workers ^nough
time for rest and recreational
purposes.
5. By reducing leave benefits,
Congress and the Government
would reduce the incentives for
Federal employes to do the best
job possible.
6. It would be in direct contrast
to current labor - management
practices adhered to in private
industry of not reducing employe
benefits but gradually improving
them.

agencies to filling only 25 per cent
of all job vacancies caused by
normal personnel turnover.
“I used to feel that such riders
were unscientific and therefore
were bad, but I have changed my
mind,” the official said. “It's the
only way to cut employment. If
you wait for the agencies to take
the initiative, you’ll never get
anywhere.
“The beauty of the Jensen
amendment is that it would re
duce employment without caus
ing the dismissal of present Gov
ernment employes. While the 25
per cent limitation in filling
vacancies may be a bit too re
strictive, it certainly is a step in
the right direction.”
This official, incidentally, is
definitely in the minority as far
as the rest of his colleagues are
concerned. They shudder at the
mention of the Jensen rider.
