Hero's Widow !
Loses Savings In
Refund To Govt.
MINOT. N. D.. May 26 UP)
Congress will be asked to act no
that Mrs. Mary Osadchy can
finally settle her account with the
federal government.
The elderly widow mistakenly
accepted $2,350 in dependent's
benefits after ber son, serving in
the air force, was killed in 1943
while flying over the North sea.
She thought when the $50 monthly
checks kept coming, it was some
sort of pension.
The government insisted she
refund the overpayments. So Mrs.
Osadchy returned $1,250 her life
savings, plus proceeds from poul
try produce she raised. She said
she simply couldn't pay any more.
George Bertelsen, Veterans ad
ministration investigator in the
Minot office, discovered the widow
should have been drawing a $60
monthly pension since the death of
her husband in March, 1944. That
pension was recently approved,
retroactive to last February.
"I'm so happy, except for that
$1,100 I owe the government,
said Mrs. Osadchy.
Floyd Henderson, North Dakota
veterans' affairs commissioner.
assured her he will ask Congress
the only agency that can do it
to cancel the debt otticialiy.

Use Koch Faces
New Indictment
For War Crimes
MUNICH, Germany, May 6.
UP) A German court indicted Use
Koch Thursday for crimes against
German and Austrian concentration
camp inmates. She will be brought
to trial late in July.
Mrs. Koch, 42, infamous mistress
of the Buchenwald concentration
camp, was accused specifically of
instigating the murder of -5 prison
ers and the attempted murder of
135 others. She was charged also
with mistreating the prisoners.
She has been held n a German
jail since last October, when she
was released Dy u. s. autnonuc:
after serving a four-year term on
war crimes charges. She had been
sentenced originally to life, but
Gen. Lucius D. Clay, as U. S. mili
tary governor, ordered the sentence
reduced to four years. He said ex
amination of trial record and re
ports from lawyers showed the
charges were based on "hearsay
and not on actual evidence."
The reduction in sentence pro
voked protests in the United States
and became a subject for U. S.
Senate inquiry. German authorities
announced they would try her and
she was put in jail immediately
after her release by the Americans.
Hans Ilkow, the Bavarian prose
cutor, said he will call 200 witnesses
at the forthcoming trial, including
three from the United States. He
: would not give the names of t..e
American witnesses.
She is the widow of the former
Buchenwald commandant. She be
came pregnant in jail while she
was a prisoner of the Americans.'
The baby was turned over to a
welfare agency.
labor Perils U. S. Political System, C. Of C. Claims
WASHINGTON iP) The U.S.
Chamber of Commerce says the
American labor movement is
threatening the stability of the na
tion's political system.
In a pamphlet on "labor in pol
itics," the chamber said:
"The American public may well
ask itself 'shall the labor bloc be
allowed by default to dominate
American politics?"
The booklet noted that politics
is a major interest of organized
labor, and added:
"The movement has become so
large that it is a constant threat
to the stability which has charac
terized our two-party system.
There is always the danger that
it may become a powerful third
party movement, or that it may
actually capture and use for its
owr purpose one of the major po
litic il parties."
The fact that both the CIO and
AFL have taken an active and
sometimes effective part in politic
cal campaigns, the chamber said,
poses this question for "the forces
outside labor."
"Whether business can continue
in this country unless it and its
friends dejl effectively with politi
cal issues all the way from the
'grass roots' to the national level."

Error On Oregon Highway
Job Costly For Bidder
. PORTLAND, May 26 UP) If
a bidder makes a mistake that
is no fault of the state of Oregon,
the highway commission decided
Thursday in refusing to let a
Seattle firm withdraw its bid for
bridge piers over the Willamette
river at Salem.
The firm, State Construction
company, bid $172,966. That was
about $60,000 under the next low
bidder. The company said it had
made an error and asked that it
be allowed to withdraw its bid
and its check for 5 percent of the
amount.
The commission said it would
keep the check.
New bids on the Salem bridge
job are to be called Tuesday, and
the Seattle firm is bidding again.
