Auc. 29 (AP) The house campaign expenses committee today began a drive to uncover "slush funds" and find out who contributes how much to the campaigns of candidates in the November elections. ., Labor and industry will be called before the group. Yester day the committee quizzed Sid ney Hillman, of the ClO's polit ical action committee and drew from him a vigorous defense of charges that the PAC is "communistic-engineered from the top down."

The group the public against us," and that he, Hillman, woulS put his rec ord of fighting communism against that of Church at any time. "I'm opposed to communism be cause I'm opposed to all totalitar ianism even in industry," Hill man asserted. Hillman said the PAC is back ing the Roosevclt-lruman ticket and seeks to elect a "progressive congress." He emphasized how ever that it will not contribute funds to the democratic national committee. Ones Backed Dewey The PAC, he said, is non-partisan and might support a republi can In any given campaign. In fact, he said, the CIO in 1937 gave $5,000 to support Thomas E. Dewey In his race for district at torney in New York. With the assurance from Hill-1 man that he would give the com-1 mittee regular reports on the PAC's drive to obtain $5,000,000 from CIO members at a dollar each, the committee, headed by Rep. Anderson (D-N. M.) an nounced that officials of tho Na tional Association of Manufactur ers would be questioned at its next meeting, the date for which has not been set. The house group is merely seeking Information, Anderson emphasized, explaining that there have neen no com plaints about the NAM itself. What other groups will be ask ed to testify before the house committee has not been decided although Hillman, during his tes timony, urged the congressmen to extend their hearings to sever al groups. Hillman told the committee the PAC has spent $37I.0SG in the current campaign. Only S17.000 has been received in the drive for $5,000,000 he said, but the PAC would consider "quite satisfac tory" contributions of one dollar each from 'J.OOO.OOO CIO members. ilso extended their appreciation to Mrs. Patterson .for acting as host for the meeting. All club members attending the meeting expressed their intentions oi carrying garden projects again nexr year and hoped to have their same leaders. News of 4-H HI CLUBS .

I yes terdny asserted In the senai iha: British objections to a report in India by William Phillips led to the diplomat's recent resignation as political adviser to General Eisenhower. Chandler called up on President Roosevelt to submit t to the senate "a full report on conditions in India. A State department spokesman earlier had denied that the Uritish eovernment had asked for Phil lips recall from London, and re iterated Phillips was coming home for personal re.isons. "The statement is being made in some Uritish tirs, that what happens in India is none of our business, but 1 repudiate that statement," said ('handler, adding that conditions there have a bearing on the war with Japan Chandler said the liiitish had declared PhHlips "persona non grata" In London and in India because he submitted to President Roosevelt a report critical of Itril ish policy in India. Phillips was in India as personal represenia live of (lie president with the rank of ambassador. "it the British are eoinj to lie able to force the recall ot out dinloniats merely lier.mse they submit truthful reports, I think we ought to kium ;ilmut it." Chandler said.

The head of the CIO-PAC, ts- j ! tifying before the Anderson com- ! mittee set up to investigate 1944 i campaign expenses and practices, ' asserted: " We are not an appendage of either major political party nor have we any desite to cap : tore cither party we don't ! seek to influence thinking, the , I program and the choice of candi- ! j dates.

"It is not our concern how they ! register," he added.

(AP) Norman Thomas, socialist can didate for president, says a third world war more devastating than Its predecessors may follow the next peace. Such a war probably will begin In Asia, he predicted here last night. Thomas asserted the Dumbar ton Oaks conference is proceed ing on the assumption that peace ran be secured hv crushing Ger- many and Japan and establishing the United States, England and Russia as the powers of the world. "Wars will arise out of a puni tive peace and out of an organiza tion of the world in which a car tel of potentially rival imperial powers, Russia, Britain and America, will try to exploit, eco nomically and politically, the rest of the world," he said. Thomas suggested a world fed eration, broken down Into region al federations including a united statps of Europe. - . . .
