Swedish Expert Says U. S. Plane Victim Of Reds STOCKHOLM, Sweden, April 26 UP) A Swedish naval staff ex pert expressed the opinion today that the Russians shot down the missing U. S. Navy Privateer filane 28 miles outside the 12-mile imit claimed by the Soviets in the Baltic. The officer, Cmdr. Stellan Her melin, head of the shipping section of the Swedish naval staff, aaid in an interview he believed the wrecked undercarriage of a plane found in the Baltic yesterday was from the missing navy patrol plane. He said he based his estimate of the crash spot on prevailing water currents and winds in the Baltic at this time of year. He estimated that the plane was shot down almost 40 miles straight west of Polangen, on the coast of Soviet-occupied Lithuania. The United States has charged that the unarmed patrol plane with 10 men aboard, was shot down on April 8 over the Baltic. Russia contended a B-29 trying to photo graph Soviet military installations exchanged fire with Soviet figh'ers which chased it away from Latvian territory near Libau. A yellow rubber suit, possibly from the missing plane, was found today on the beach of the Danish island of Langeland. The suit, wrapped in a rubber bag tnat could be used as a hood, had not been in the water very bog, po lice said. The aircraft undercarriage, picked up by a Swedish fisherman south of Gotland island, waa due in Stockholm tonight for forward ing to American authorities at Port Lyautey, Morocco, the home base of the missing navy plane. An informant who saw the plane undercarriage aboard ship, said he noticed one hole in one of the 'ires but could not say what caused it. The Stockholm newspaper Dagent Nyhter said the tire was riddled by bullets.

AprU X-IJP) Two unions battling bitterly for control of the nation's electrical workers wind up hectic campaigns today to woo Westinghouse Electric corporation's 55,000 employees. Tomorrow, the National Labor Relatione board will poll the West inghouse workers at 40 plant! in 32 cities. That vote marks the first big test of strength in the six-month feud between the United Electrical Workers (U) (independent) and the CIO International Union of Elec- trical Worker (IUE). The result may well decide which union the other quarter-million worker in the industry will side with. For more than a decade the UE was the top union in the industry which turns out America's radios, washing machines and other sloc trical units. Like the steelworker and many another union, the UE was attiliated with the CIO. i Then last year the CIO chopped off ita electrical arm. The CIO ac cused the UE of left-wingism. Af-i ter casting the UE adrift the CIO ' formed a new electrical workers union the IUE. The IUE went out to enlist the UE's members. That' when the fight started. Foreign Aid Cut Demanded By Taf t WASHINGTON, AprU IS UP) Senator Taft (R-Ohio) called to day for a test of Congress' willing ness to save money with a move to cut at least $500,000,000 off new foreign aid spending. Taft told a reporter that if the senate won't vote to alice at least that amount off a pending bill which authorizes $3,372,450,000 in foreign recovery funds, "there won't be any substantial cut in the President's budget." The senate resumes debate on the bill today with leaders hoping to reach a final vote before the week-end. Chairman Connally (D Tex) of the foreign relations com mittee has predicted approval of the full amount. The measure only puts a ceiling on foreign aid spending, with con gress to provide the actual money in later appropriations bills. But Taft said that if the authorization win approval in the full amount, there won't be much chance to aave in the later money bills. The Weather Fair and warmer today. Partly cleudy Thursday.
