- CHICAGO LPV-Democrata rallied Sunday nieht in advance of a
two day party conference, with Harry S. Truman urging them "to
save the country and Adlai Stevenson declaring It may be neces
sary to start a Democratic "crusade" against the Republicans. .
And National Democratic Chairman Stephen A. Mitchell slapped
at Democrats who might try to get elected by riding President Eisen-
mmm
We have heard little about it
here on the western rim of the
, continent but New York City is
luring its primary election Tues
day. The principal office at stake
in the final election in November
is the mayoralty. The incumbent,
Vincent ImpeHIterL is a candi
date for the Democratic nomina
tion. His chief opponent is Robert
F. Wagner, Jr., borough president
for Manhattan, son of the late
Senator Wagner. Though Wagner
has the backing of Tammany, the
mayor is given a decided edge in
-the Tuesday contest. The Tammny
tiger is now pretty well moth-
eaten and toothless.
The real battle will shape up in
November. Other candidates an
ticipated for the finals1 are Ru
dolph Halley, independent Liber
al, president of the city council,
and Harold Riegelman, Republi
can, acting postmaster. Of these
Halley has the advantage of the
publicity he gained as counsel for
the Kefauver committee on its
crime investigations. He is rated
as the television favorite, and will
give this new medium of commu
nication a good workout in the
coming campaign. The Nation de
scribes him as young, intelligent
and honest, each of which would
have been a handicap to a candi
date in the "bad old days."
Roy V. Peel points out in a
recent Nation article the decline
of the city bosses. Only a few
relics remain, like Ed Crump in
Memphis. When government start
ed handing out relief now' made
sermanent as "welfare" the lev
erage the bosses had on the city

machines still operate, but

Shah Orders
Courtmartial
Of Mossadegh
TEHRAN (JH The Shah of Iran
Sunday officially ordered a court
martial to try former Premier Mo
hammed Mossadegh. ,
The Monarch's action removed
Mossadegh from the jurisdiction of
the Tehran military government
under which be has been undergo
ing preliminary questioning in se
cret for about a week.
The move placed him formally in
the hands of a courtmartial before
which he roust defend his actions
during the four August days in
which he defied the Sha's degree
removing him from office in favor
of Fazollah Zahedi.
A government spokesman said
the courtmartial members have al
ready begun questioning Mossa
degh, 72-year-old nationalist lead
er, in secret
The spokesman said Mossadegh's
trial "will not be secret unless
the court decides otherwise.
Army, government and court of
ficials are still debating whether
the trial should be open or secret
Those seeking secrecy point out
that Mossadegh, throughout his par
liamentary career, was renowned
as more dangerous in opposition
than when leading a majority.
Many Zahedi supporters openly
admit Mossadegh's weeping, faint
ing and other long familiar dra
matic tactics could have consid
erable impact on Iranian public op
inion now regarded as pretty solid
ly anti-Mossadegh.

Rocket Engineer Says Russia
Working on 'Space Satellite'
DENVER IA One of the n
uoni foremost rocket engineers
says the Russians plan to fire a
"fantastic" man-made rocket satel
lite into the stratosphere which
could accurately relay information
back to earth.
George Sutton, 33, of Los Angeles
said in an interview that Soviet sci
entists are "definitely planning to
shoot a man-made "dead star" -to
a point 200 miles above the earth
'within our generation.
If launched properly, he said, the
mechanism would remain at that
altitude and circle the earth at a
speed of 23,000 feet per second, or
one every- two hours.
The 500-ton satellite observation
platform would hover about the
earth in the same manner as does
the moon. Sutton said, although the
moon, macn - nigner. circles tne
globe In a day-long cycle.
Sutton, supervisor of propulsion

India Troops
Control P0W
'Escape' Try
By SAM SUMMERLTN
MUNSAN, Korea (A The com
mender of Indian troops guarding
Communist war prisoners who re
fuse repatriation Monday praised
his soldiers for "magnificently"
controlling an "attempted break
out" of some 500 North Koreans
last Thursday.
It was the first indication that
the disturbance touched off when
the violently anti-Communist POWs
spotted two Red officers was more
than a rock throwing incident.
Maj. Gen. S. P. P. Thorat, in a
message complimenting his Indian
troops guarding the reluctant pris
oners, said that in dealing with
them, often in the face of grave
provocation,' you have shown much
patience and great tact."
An Indian spokesman said last
Thursday the disturbance started
when the North Koreans spotted
two Communist observers outside
their barbed wire compound at In
dian village near Panmunjom. -He
said the prisoners threw
stones at the Reds, but that no
one was hurt The Indian troops,
be said, "pacified' the prisoners
and the rock barrage stopped aft
er about five minutes.
The U.N. Command had no im
mediate comment on Thorat's
statement.
Another statement by the Indian
Command said a note had been
received in Chinese from the balky
POWs promising that "from now
onwards we will cooperate with
you in everything."
The Communists, meanwhile, an
nounced they will turn over to In
dian custody next Sunday about
300 Koreans and 20 non-Koreans
who refused repatriation during the
recently concluded prisoner ex
change. The non-Korean group pro
bably will include a number of
Americans..
PWs Seek to
Return to West
PANMUNJOM CR Communist
correspondent Wilfred Burcbett said
Monday some of the Allied pris
oners of war still in Communist
hands had changed their minds and
now wanted to go home.
He did not specify their number
or nationality.
The Reds have said they bold
more than 300 Korean POWs and
more than 20 non-Korean captives
who refused repatriation. They an
nounced Sunday they would hand
over these POWs to Indian guards
in the neutral zone next Sunday.
some of the balky POWs already
have arrived at Kaesong, the Com
munist collecting point near Pan
munjom, Burcbett said.

Opposition to the proposed one

from the Capitol Planning Com
mission's chairman, Robert W.
Sawyer of Bend.
A public hearing on the grid
plan is to be held in City Hall
tonight beginning at 7:30 o'clock.
text of the letter will be pre
sented at this hearing. Specifi
cally, Sawyer writes: "On behalf
of jthe Capitol Planning Commis
sion I urge that the original
recommendation against the use
of streets in the capitol area as a
part of the grid be followed at
leafct to tbe extent of taking
thrpugh traffic off Summer Street
in tbe area."
Proposals in the grid expansion
involving the Capitol area include
continued use of Summer Street
for, southbound traffic, changes in
flow on East Summer and West
Summer Streets, erection of poles
and installation of a traffic con
trol light signal at the junction of
East Summer and Court Streets.
Sawyer points out that, "the
routing of traffic in the capitol
area as provided for in the pro
posed city ordinance and the in
stallation of poles . and traffic
lights on East and West Summer
Streets would detract from rather
than enhance and preserve the
beauty and dignity of the capitol
area.

TOKYO un Qmmunisi China
Sunday night proposed that the im
pending Korean political confer
ence be expanded to include Rus
sia, India and three other Asian
nations as neutrals but the new
Red plan immediately drew strong
American opposition. 1 !
The Chinese Reds asked for an
invitation to the U. N. General
Assembly meeting this week in
New York to discuss their; plan.
But U. S. Assistant Secretary of
State Robert Murphy promptly
served notice in a New York speech
that the American idea of a confer
ence between the two warring
sides, approved 43-5 at the U. N.
Assembly meeting last month, must
be carried out. j
Previously Rejected !
Murphy told the American As
sociation for the United Nations
there was no reason at all for tbe
Chinese to be invited to New York
to discuss the question. He said the
Red plan was only a "minor varia
tion" of previously rejected Soviet
proposals.
In Washington other topi Ameri

considered the Red demands "com
