Congress Seeks
Communist Check
WASHINGTON, April 1 (AP) —
Immediate prosecution of the Com
munist party and its officials on
the ground that they failed to
register as foreign agents was de
manded Tuesday by Representa
tive J. Parnell Thomas (R.-N. J,),
chairman of the house committee
on UnAmerican activities.
Thomas wrote the justice de
partment that “beyond any doubt,
the Communist party of the Unit
ed States is now, and has been
since its inception, an agent of a
foreign government.”
Simultaneously, committee
members disclosed that they will
shortly issue a new report deal
ing with the “American Youth for
Democracy” organization. Wit
nesses have called it a communist
front and said it is active in
American colleges.
To permit expansion of the com
mittee’s campaign, the house ad
ministration committee approved
Tuesday a bill to permit the
spending of an extra $50,000.

ATHENS, April 1 (AP)—King
George II of Greece died un
expectedly Tuesday and his
brother, Prince Paul, will be sworn
in as monarch at 7:30 p. m.
The king, 56, died of a heart
ailment.
Immediately after the new king
is sworn in, the government and
monarch will issue messages to
the people.
Much Exiled
George, who spent many years
of his reign in exile, was returned
to his throne last Sepember by a
plebiscite.
Former Premier George Papan
dreou said the king died at 2:30
p. m. He said the king recently
had been complaining of pain
caused by angina pectoris.
Election Contested
The king, twice exiled from his
country, returned to Greece after
an election decided upon continu
ance of the monarch. This election
has been attacked as unrepresen
tative by Russia factions, but its
fairness was upheld by American
and British delegates who ob
served the polling.
The death brought a new angle
into the question of American aid
to Greece, now being debated in
Washington.

Set for Spring Release

N. H. Cornish, professor of busi

for its second edition in the spring
by Binford and Mort, Portland pub
lishers.

recommendations from the office
might get voluntary compliance.

the mine shutdown might extend
past the “mourning” period of six
days set by John L. Lewis, United

of the Interior J. A. Krug directed
