Clare ' Bootha Luce, R, Conn., said last night that Rus sian communism, employing ter roristic techniques similar to that used in Naziism, was sweep ing Europe. Mrs. Luce urged the United States to use all its power to sup ' port anti-communist govern ments in nations to which it has military or diplomatic access. Speaking before the men's faculty club of Columbia univer sity, she said the world had nothing to fear from the Russian people. She said they themselves are victims of communist tech niques. But it Is time, she added, that "we drew a moral balance sheet on communism." Russian policy in Europe, she said, has meant "exile or death to everybody in every country occupied by the Soviet, regard less of that person's political be liefs, if he does not follow the Soviet program."

"For the men of the Kremlin, truth is what Stalin says it is on Monday, and it may be some thing else again on Tuesday, she said. Mrs. Luce recently re turned from a tour of European battlefronts. "No bloody Nazi nonsense darkens our mind about the fact that what the Nazis did was murder," she said. 'Nor should any gory twaddle of the com munists deceive us that such deeds are not murder too. And murder is evil." Mrs. Luce said 13 nations In central Europe already were controlled by communists.

They based their opinion on his behavior at his hearing Satur day. The man whose name came to mean traitor seemed intent on fighting for his life, probably by trying to shift the blame on Josef Terboven, Navi governor of Norway. Oslo authorities announced that the body of Terboven, who committed suicide, definitely had been Identified in the air raid shelter at the Skaugum pal ace of Crown Prince Olaf. Ter boven and SS Chief Wilhelm Reidess blew themselves up with dynamite on May 9. The decision delivered Satur day to hold Quisling until Aug. 25 gives the state three months to prepare its case against him. He may appeal that ruling be fore next Sunday to an informal court consisting of three mem bers of the supreme court.

Dis patches from the Levant today reported bloody skirmishing be tween the French and natives at Horns and Hama, with an unspe cified number of casualties on both sides. The tension in Syria and Leb anon exploded in violence, ac cording to Beyrouth advices, coincident with a report in diplo matic quarters here that Pres ident Truman might be called upon to mediate the dispute. Reports that French troops were withdrawn from Home, Hama and Aleppo to camps on the outskirts were followed by dispatches which said shooting had broken out in the first two towns. She combatants were natives, demonstrating for the full independence of the Levant, and unspecified French groups, apparently the troops. Damascus reports relayed through Beyrouth said telephone linss to both Horns and Hama had been cut, and details of the bloodshed were lacking. PRESIDENT ASKS Washington, May 28. (U.RI President Truman today urged congress to close what he de scribed as a major gap in the reconversion program "the lack of adequate benefits for workers temporarily unemploy ed during the transition from war to peace." He proposed that congress act at once to assure war workers, through supplementation of state unemployment benefits, of 26 weeks of payments in any one year if they are jobless that long. He proposed at least $25 a week for unemployed workers with dependents. He recommended specifically that congress: 1. Take emergency action to widen the coverage of unemploy ment conpensation and to in crease the amount and duration of benefits at least for the dur ation of the emergency period of reconversion. 2. Extend unemployment com pensation coverage to include federal employes, maritime workers and other workers not now insured. 3. Provide supplementary emergency funds to assure each eligible worker 26 weeks of benefits in any one year, if un employed that long. CLAlTMEDGE Washington, May 28 flJ.R) U. S. support of Argentina's admit tance to the United Nations con ference at San Francisco violat ed a pledge given by the late President Roosevelt to Premier Josef Stalin, according to Her bert Elliston, associate editor of the Washington. Post. Elliston asserted in a broad cast last night that in a conver sation at Yalta on the projected conference, the Soviet premier said to Mr. Roosevelt, "You're not planning to name Argentina, I hope." The late president's answer, Elliston said, was "Cer tainly not." Elliston said a "deal" to bring Argentina into the San Fran cisco meeting was "made in a smoke-filled room in Mexico City" during the Chapultcpec conference. Russia, he said, was not consulted. Washington, May 28 (U.R) The U. S. navy -la building an additional 20,000 warships to give it a total of 127,000 ships of all types to complete the final phase of .the second world war.
