Newsmen Claim
Kansas City
Ballot Fraud
KANSAS CITY, Sept' 26 -(P)
The Kansas City Star aaid to
night that evidence of voting
frauds In the August primary
had been uncovered in an inves
tigation conducted by two of its
reporters and the information had
been turned over to Sam Wear,
United States district ' attorney,
who forwarded them to the at
torney general for his analysis.
The alleged frauds were not
city-wide, and represented only
a fraction of the ballot corruption
which came to a heed ten years
ago with convictions of 239 per
sons on vote fraud charges, the
Star said. The paper added that
"only the opening of the ballot
boxes will reveal whether the
frauds changed the results of any
of the primary contests."
In the torrid primary battle.
Fifth district Congressman Roger
C. Slaughter was defeated for re
nomination by Enos Axtell who
had the active support of Presi
dent Truman and the James 11.
Pendergast machine.

Power Strike
-11 . i ; -n
By The Associated Press ,
Pittsburgh's striking power un
ion workers voted more than two
to one Saturday night against a
management proposal to end the
five-day-old strike which has
crippled steel output, transporta
tion and the water supply of sev
eral suburban communities.
On the west coast, new violence
marked a-' state of emergency in
the Hollywood movie strike, but
a i conditional AFX. offer- uf post
pone a threatened maritime strike
after the Monday midnight dead-
line brightened the nations labor
picture.
Pittsburgh's Mayor David L.
Lawrence said he would ask the
power union to remove its pickets
from the street car barns and bus
garages. Transportation workers
earlier had refused to cross the
lines, bringing the city's transit
system to a complete shutdown.

itution
PARIS.k Sundar. Sept. 29 -fJP)
The French legislature adopted a
new constitution for the fourth
republic early today by the over
whelming vote of 440 to 108.
The balloting, at 4 a.m. (10
p.m. Saturday, -eastern standard
time), came only a few. hours
before Gen. Charles 'de' Gaulle
wis to make his tensely-awaited
statement concerning his opinion
of the new basic law of the na
tion.. .
De Gaulle, his friends have
said, will ; speak directly to the
French people and urge them to
reject the charter In the referen
dum on the constitution to be
held October 13.
This unpredictable factor placed
the ultimate fate of the assembly's
new constitution in doubt, for it
was not clear how much strength
De Gaulle could muster in his
opposition ' if he flatly denounces
it: and urges that It be turned
down. .
The constitution received the
votes of France's three largest
parties the communists, the so
cialiits ttbd President Georges
Bldault's popular- republican
movement (MRP), which together
represent about 90 per cent of the
French electorate.

U. N. Scientists
Say A-Bomb
Can be Barred!
LAKE SUCCESS, N. Y., Sept
28 (P) Twelve International
scientists ., agreed today that
technically atomic energy can be
controlled for peaceful purposes
and put the issue of constructive
use up to the world's politicians.
"We do not find any basis in
the available . scientific facts for
supposing that effective control
is not. technologically feasible,"
they said in a 6,800-word report
prepared for the United Nations
atomic energy commission.
"Whether or not it is politically
feasible is not discussed or im
plied in this report nor is there
any recommendation of the par
ticular ' system ; or systems by
which effective I control can be
achieved." r
The scientists reperesenting
every nation of the 11 -member
U.N, security council and. Canada
said, however, that control can
be done step by step.
In their report . which was
agreed upon unanimously when
Russia signed it Thursday In a
dramatic climax to six weeks
hard work,' the scientists ex
plained the production of atomic
energy stage by stage.
They said there must, be safe
guards at every stage from
