    Swiss Officer
Arrested for
Wiretaps Sale
Egyptian Embassy
Information Said
Supplied French
BERN, Switzerland (AV-Swiss
police have arrested Federal Po
lice Inspector Max Ulrich on
charges of selling wiretaps of
Egyptian Embassy telephone con
versations to the French.
Examining ' Magistrate Hans
Walder, who has been making an
investigation for the Swiss gov
ernment, said the evidence
against Ulrich was "heavily in
criminating." He was suspended
from duty in March after a se
cret investigation threw suspicion
on him.
Ulrich is believed to have given
Col. Marcel Mercier,. chiei of
French intelligence services in
Switzerland, information leading
to a series of arrests of Algerian
nationalist leaders. Many of these
had been. in frequent touch with
the Egyptian Embassy in Berlin.
Under Switzerland's strict neu
trality laws, espionage against
foreign countries is almost as se
rious a crime as espionage
against Switzerland.
The Egyptian Embassy com
plained to the Swiss government
last November that it thought its
phones were being tapped for the
benefit of the French. Atty. Gen.
Rene Dubois killed, himself March
23, after the investigation impli
cated him.
The investigating magistrate
last week had Associated Press
correspondent Michael Goldsmith
arrested for 24 hours because he
would not reveal the sources
from which he obtained the first
news published on March 20 of
the investigation against Ulrich.
Numerous Swiss papers criti
cized Walder for "arresting the

RED CHINA BRUTALITIES
TOLD BY FREED PRIEST
.SAN FRANCISCO (fl A Cath
olic priest who spent six years in
Chinese Communist prisons says
he has "no use" for Americans
who condemned U.S. prisoners in
Korea for "confessions" of germ
warfare or spying.
"I would say' let those who con
demn go to China and experience
just three months of interroga
tion," said the Rev. , Fulgence
Gross Sunday after his arrival in
this country from Tokyo. "Then
they would understand that those
methods of interrogation force you
to make confessions that you
know are nonsensical."
Father Gross, a Franciscan
missionary from Omaha, Neb.,
was released six weeks ago. He
said it was "humanly impossible
to withstand brutal beatings ad
ministered by the Chinese Reds.
"I confessed, yes, I did," he
told a press conference. "They
beat me with straps, sticks and
their fists and held a sword over
my neck to make me confess. . .
I was forced to stand for hours
at my trials."
The slender 53-year-old mission
ary, who spent 18 years in China,
said "faith" enabled him to en
dure the mental and physical
tortures.
After the beatings came trials
and interrogations, he said.
"As best I can remember,"
Father Gross said, "I was taken
230 times to trial. They would last
from five to eight hours, and often
they were at night."
Father Gross said he doubted
whether much would be gained by
allowing American newsmen to
visit Communist China.
DOROTHY DIX COLUMN
Promise Made on Death Bed
Would Be Better Broken
DEAR DOROTHY DIX: Six years ago I lost my husband and
was left with two children. I made a promise to their father that
I would never marry again. The children think I should keep a promise
to a dying man.that it s something sacred. How
ever, I'm only 34 years old and would like a com
panion. The children say I owe them all my love,
but when they have dates they go out, never con
sidering whether I'll be lonesome or not. Fred-
1 ericka.
DfiAK rnttliCKllllA: many promises are Det
ter broken than kept; deathbed vows, in my opin
ion, fall into this category. They are given and ex
acted under emotional stress that leaves no room
for reason.
Your children, selfishly but naturally, want all
your care and attention tor themselves. Ask them If they Intend to
give you the same whole-hearted devotion they are asking.
Young people can be very self-centered, but when situations are
explained lo them, they're remarkedly understanding. I'm sure your
youngsters will react favorably if you discuss the matter seriously.
I suggest that 'you all have a conference with a clergyman who will
explain the moral obligations of a hasty deathbed promise.
DEAR DOROTHY DIX: I'm a girl of 18. I wartt to go somewhere
and get a job, but my parents say I'm too young. Miserable.
DEAR MISERABLE: A girl of 18 certainly should be doing some
thing, be It studying or working. Mom, evidently, wants to keep her
little girl close to home, but she's working aganlst nature.
If there are no job possibilities in your home town, head for the
big city, armed with references, recommendations, the address of the
"Y" and as much business school training as you have or can get.
Oh, Mom's approval, too, of course and that's the difficult part. Get
a teacher, clergyman or relative to help you talk her Into the Idea.
DEAR DOROTHY DIX: After gomg steady with Albert for nine
years, I have gotten the impression that he doesn't want to marry
me. I decided to let him know what he's been missing, and am now
'expecting a child. I'm 35, and guess I should have known better.
Betsy. .
DEAR BETSY: Isn't approaching fatherhood an Inducement for
marriage? Or has Albert walked out on you, leaving no forwarding
address? '
Yes, my rlear, you were old enough to know better, but hope (es
pecially the hope of a wedding ring) springs eternal at any age.
You munt now face the fundamental reality of life. Handle this
more sensibly than you have the problem leading up to it. Make the
experience strengthen' your character; don't weaken any more.
Send yonr problem to Dorothy Dix. Or write for her free leaflet
D-29, "To Marry Or Wait?" In all cases, be sure to enclose a stamped,
self-addressed envelope, and send request lo her, care of this news
paper. Dorothy Dix is a Trademark registered in the U. S. Patent Office

McCarthy Job
Demos Vow Fight to
Refuse Governor
Appointment Power
By ARTHUR BYSTROM
MADISON. Wis. Wl-Wisconsin
Democrats are determined to
fight any effort to give the state's
GOP governor special power to
appoint a U. S. senator to com
plete the term of the late Joseph
R. McCarthy.
This was announced by State
Democratic Chairman Philleo
Nash after a meeting of Demo
cratic leaders. '
There has been no announce
ment that the Republican major
ity in the Legislature will attempt
to give the governor such power.
new denied him under Wisconsin
law, which says a special y elec
tion may be called. Such a move
has been suggested.
Yesterday Gov. Vernon Thom
son said he was "concerned
about the possible costs of a spe
cial election for a term expiring
at the, end of '1958. He estimated
the price at "one-half million dol
lars or more.
He told newsmen at Galesburg.
111., he hadn't given the question
of making an appointment much
consideration, and he declined to
say anything about his possible
candidacy in a special election.
If he were authorized to appoint
a successor, he could name him
self to the post.
Republicans have a two-thirds
majority in both the Wisconsin
Embassy and Senate, but a two
thirds vote would be needed to
get such legislation up for imme
diate consideration. Some Repub
licans would balk at the maneuv
er, and their votes with those of
the Democrats would be enough
to defeat the plan.
The possibility was further min
imized last night when Philip
Kuehn, state GOP chairman, re
ported at a 10th Dist. Republican
caucus that he believed Thomson
would order a special election.
Nash said that yesterday's
Democratic meeting was held
"because we want to continue to
operate on the premise that the
voters should have the right to
choose the man who should rep
resent them in the Senate."

Langley Gets
Further Delay
Of Office Loss
PORTLAND Wl Once again.
Dist. Atty. William Langley Mon
day won an extension of time
before being ousted from office.
Circuit Judge f rank J. Loner
ean said he would hear still
further arguments at 2 p.m. Tues
day on why Langley should not
be removed from office.
Langley was convicted on April
13 of failure to prosecute gam
blers, and removal is the penalty.
But Langley's attorneys say that
an appeal to the state Supreme
Court automatically' stays that.
Whether It does is the decision
Judge Lonergan is to make.
He said Monday, as he said
last week, he is going to order
Langley removed. But there still
will be the question, then, whether
an order will go Into effect or
whether an appeal will stop it,
The judge said he would let the
attorneys give him further argu
ment on that Tuesday.
Hearings on this were twice
postponed last week because
Langley was a government wit
ness in the federal wiretap trial
of gambler Big Jim Elkins. He
testified that some recordings
were of telephone conversations
he had.

Edwards appeared on The Mike
Wallace Interview over the ABC-
TV network. He wore traditional

Attorney for
Schrunk Hits
Jury's Report
PORTLAND wi Mayor Terry
Schrunk's attorney said Monday
the Multnomah County Grand
Jury's final report "contains
vastly garbled conclusions and
misstatements of facts applicable
to our mayor."
The attorney Edwin D. Hicks
said he feels the report will create
"passion and prejudice" in the
minds of people from whom
the trial juries must be chosen.
The report was critical of
Schrunk and Dist. Atty. William
Langley, botn under indictments
originated by the grand jury.
The report also recommended
Atty. Gen. Robert Y. Thornton be
removed from control of the vice
investigations. 1
Hicks said his position as
Schrunk's attorney made It impos
sible for him to make a complete
comment on the jury report, but
implied that it would be the sub
ject of future legal action.
He did not explain what form
the action would take, but added
his views would be presented "in
the course of court proceedings
which will involve the report."
