Ut White tase
By JACK BELL
WASHINGTON tfi The chair
men of the Democratic and Re
publican National Committees dis
agreed Sunday on whether Com-munists-in-government
will be a
campaign issue next year.
Discussing - the Harry Dexter
White controversy in a TV inter
view (CBS "Man of the Week".
GOP National Chairman Leonard
Hall said Communism would be a
major issue in 1954.
- He particularly stressed that
in the four months under the new
security law, 1,436 security risks
had been ousted from government
employ.
But Democratic National Chair
man Stephen A. -Mitchell disa
greed. He told a Beloit, Wis., news
conference':
"I don't think the people will
eat warmed over spy."
He said Atty. Gen. Brownell's
oharre that tnrmur ProciHont
Truman promoted White despite
reports from the FBI that White
was a spy were "backed up by
all the tricks of propaganda and
party system.
Mitchell called it a plan very
deliberately conceived and care
fully sprung."
Meanwhile, veteran politicians
agreed that so far the Republicans
and Democrats have fought to a
political tie in the White case. Both
sides, however, were expected to
fire heavy barrages this week.
Shoulders
Returns From
Hawaii Trip
ST. LOUIS VFi Louis Shoul
ders former St. Louis police lieu
tenant who cracked the Bobby
Greenlease case, arrived back
home Sunday night after a va
cation in Hawaiii with the woman
he hopes to marry. I ,
Shoulders said he had not been
asked to testify in the kidnapers'
trial which starts at Kansas City
Monday.
Shoulders and Miss June Marie
George vacationed on the island
of Maui, where Shoulders' son.
Bruce, is employed.
The former officer, suntanned
and sporting a short haircut, ap
peared in a pleasant mood when
newsmen met him at the airport.
But when reporters questioned
him about the case he said:
"Go away and leave me alone,
I have been patient enough. Now
leave me alone."
Then Shoulders and Miss George
walked to a waiting car, where
his brother. Harvey, and an un
identified couple waited.
Shoulders said earlier he was
going to try to get a divorce from
his wife here.
"ITT make a settlement with
her, he said. We own a piece
of property jointly and 111 give
it to her."
Asked why he returned to St
Louis. Shoulders replied:
"Sometimes you got some bus!
ness things coming up." He would
not elaborate.
. He said his future plans were
indefinite.

Nations favored San Francisco,
Honolulu or Geneva, but "we are
open-minded about the place to
meet."
He said he stressed again to
the Reds the Allied determination
to limit the nations invited to the
conference to those who had par
ticipated in the Korean War.
The Reds want Asian neutrals
invited. Their list includes Soviet
Russia.
Deaa U Confer
Dean said he would meet with
the Chinese envoy, Huang Hua,
and the North Korean envoy. Ki
Sok Bok, on the subcommittee
charged with setting the composi
tion and site of the conference.
Edward Martin, State Depart
ment expert on the Far East, and
CoL Stanton Babcock will work on
the subcommittee which must set
the date.
Dean said South Korea would
be represented at the meeting on
composition and place by Vice
Minister of Foreign Affairs Cho
Chang Hwan and at the meeting
on tune by CoL Lee Soo Young,
veteran truce negotiator. Each
will attend as an observer.
Meet Uneventful
The U. S. ambassador said
Monday's meeting was "unevent
ful" with "no fireworks on -either
side."
The subcommittees will meet in
separate buildings astride the
demarcation line.
They will decide Tuesday
whether to keep their, work secret
or issue communiques after each
meeting.
Washington sources reported
that the United States would be
willing for India to sit in on the
conference provided it is agree
able to South Korea's President
Syngman Rhee who has been bit
terly opposed to this.
Russian position
The United Nations already has
decided Russia might attend on
the belligerent side at the invita
tion of the Chinese and North Ko
rean Reds.
Dean and U. S. Vice President
Nixon, who toured Korea over the
weekend, expressed satisfaction
over the agenda agreement. It was
the first progressive step since
Dean opened his talks with the
Communists Oct 26.
"This is just the key that opens
the door," Dean cautioned. "The
real hard work is just commenc
ing."
More Negotiations
The Allied camp is prepared for
more wearing weeks of negotia
tions with the North Korean and
Red China Foreign Ministry offi
cials.
So far. the Reds have dragged
their feet on even the smallest is
sues. It required three weeks for
the diplomats to even decide what
to talk about in preliminary con
versations.
There is a strong feeling that
the Reds may have in mind delay
ing the start of the conference
until late January. By such a
postponement, the Reds could es
cape having the embarrassing
prisoner of war question aired at
the public forum.
The armistice allows the poll
tical conference to discuss for 30
days the fate of thousands of form
er Red soldiers who renounced
Communism.
However, time runs out in late
January for these prisoners. By
then, the truce says, all prisoners
who have refused' repatriation
must be released to civilian status
and helped to go to a country
of their choice.

night in Santiago de Cuba. The

It also was reported from San
tiazo that police seized an unex

Morse Tells
pian to Curb
Excess Crops
Statesmaa News Scrrtc
FED EE Speaking to a pre
dominantly farm audience at the
Pedee Farmers Union Saturday
night, UJS. Senator Wayne Morse
outlined his plan to eliminate
farm surplus products. .
He proposed that the U. S.
form agreements with backward
countries which permit Ameri
can investors to develop resources
in those countries for private pro
fit In return American surplus
commodities would be exchang
ed, he said. : .
Morse renewed his demand
that President Eisenhower call
a special session of congress to
study farm problems. He added
that there is some thought in
Washington that if action is de
layed until next spring, it may
be too late to aid the farmer.
Not "Giveaway"
In his plan to reduce farm sur
pluses, Morse declared that it
would not be a "giveaway' pro
gram but rather a cooperative en
terprise among nations to in
crease world trade. He deplored
the storing of food as a way to
raise or peg prices. He said that
from 30 to 60 percent of stored
food came out of warehouses un
fit for human use.
The Senator was scornful of
talk that tagged farm subsidies as
"creeping socialism."'
Te Carry Fight
In discussing the Hells Canyon
issue Morse said he and other lib
erals in the Senate would fight
through to the Supreme Court if
necessary. "If this administra
tion continues the raid on natur
al resources of the nation, the
speech I'm going to make in the
next session will make my 22-
hour marathon of the last session
look like an introduction," he de
clared.
He said that only a federal dam
at Hells canyon would allow max
imum development of all the ri
ver s resources ana provide a
yardstick to keep private utility
rates down.
Dewey Cummins, president of
the Pedee Farmers Union, pre
sided at the meeting. Before his
