Attlee Decides To Call Halt To
Further Industry Nationalization
London, Mar. 2 (U.R) Prime
his new socialist cabinet today that he has decided to call a halt
for the time being in the nationalization of British industry.
Attlee made his decision in the face of opposition from the left
wing of his labor party and the danger of a substantial revolt later
on.
He was believed to have interpreted labor's narrow margin of
victory in the general election last week as a sign that the country
had had enough nationalization for the present. Labor won a ma
i jority of only seven seats over the combined opposition in the new
parliament.
No Plan To Carry Out Election Program
The labor party had campaigned for the general election on a
platform promising nationalization of the cement and sugar indus
tries, meat distribution and water supply.
Attlee's decision means that the new government will make
no attempt to carry out that program.
The new cabinet, meeting today for the first time, was under
stood to have endorsed Attlee's decision to proceed with a policy
of less rather than more socialism.
High on the agenda for today's meeting was preparation of
the speech with which King George VI will open parliament form
ally next Monday. The king's speech traditionally is written by
the government in power and outlines its legislative program for
the coming year.
As now envisioned, the speech will not mention nationalization.
Acquittal Motion Denied By
Sander Judge; State Rests
Manchester, N. H , Mar. 2
(U.R) A defense motion for a
directed verdict of acquittal was
denied in Dr. Hermann N. San
der's mercy murder trial today.
"The defendant's motion is de
nied." said Superior Judge Har
old E. Wcscott who had excused
the all-male jury while the mo
tion was argued.
The action came soon after
the prosecution had rested its
case at 2:01 p.m. (EST).
Motion Argued
The motion was argued pro
and con by Chief Defense Coun
sel Louis E. Wyman and Assist
ant Attorney General William S.
Green.
Wyman contended the state
had failed to prove the corpus
dclccti that Mrs. Abbie C. Bor
roto, 59. a dying cancer patient,
had been killed by an injection
of air administered by Dr. San
der. Dr. Sander, 41, being tried
for firrt degree murder, was ac
cused by the state of injecting
40 cubic centimeters of air into
her veins in order to hasten her
death. She died at Hillsborough
county hospital December 4.
Claimed No Evidence
Wyman argued that the stale
had based its case largely on Dr.

MEDFORD, OREGON,
Minister Clement R. Attlee told
Sander's admissions without pre
senting corroborative evidence.
Green contended "we have a
situation here where the state
has presented evidence of Dr.
Sander using a deadly instru
ment . . . and we have corro
borated that evidence by another
witness."
He cited several cases from
other courts in which is was held
unnecessary to prove from the
body of the deceased "that death
was cased by a criminal means."
"In this case.'VGreen said, "we
have presented all the elements
to enable the jury to decide the
innocence or guilt of Dr. Sander.
"It would be a gross miscar
riage if Dr. Sander could state
to the whole world what he had
done and the jury would not
have the opportunity to decide
his guilt or innocence."
Law Books Used
The defense had brought two
large cases of law books into the
courtroom to back up its motion
for a directed verdict.
The motion was based largely
on two points:
1. Failure of the state to es
tablish a corpus delccti, mean
ing specifically that the death
was of a felonious nature.
Planned
en a chance to air their views
to voters.
The state board of the junior
chamber of commerce has ap
proved unanimously the plan,
and Jossy, its creator, has been
named chHirman of the local
and state committee on "opera
tion economy."
Letters mailed to Oregon con
gressmen last week asked for
their attendance this summer at
a series of Oregon forum meet
ings tentatively slated for Bend.
Klamath Falls. Medford. Eugene.

oriier.
Meanwhile, Ralph Rohweder.
national vice president of the
junior chamber of commerce,
said "operation economy" stood
a good chance to spread into a
national program if it succeeded
in Oregon.
Text of the resolution passed
by the Bend and state board
junior chambers of commerce
includes:
Invitation Extended
"Whereas the opportunity for
the average citizen to see and to

tact with his congressional dele
gation is very limited, and
whereas the congressional dele

the summer of 1930. the subject
of such forumt to be "operation
economy,"
THURSDAY, MARCH 2,
The conservative opposition
the subsequent debate by moving an amendment deploring the
failure of the government to ask repeal of the act to nationalize the
iron and steel industry, effective next January 1.
Reliable sources said that, as a matter of fact, the government is
looking for a graceful way out of the steel act.
It would be too embarrassing for the government to sponsor a
repeal act, which was one of the key planks in the conservative
party's campaign platform, these sources said.
It was considered possible the steel nationalization act would
be repealed through- a private member's bill, not a bill sponsored
by the labor party. A limited number of private bills are allowed
for each session of parliament.
Attlee May Face Full-Fledged Revolt
Further nationalization which the labor party has promised
sugar, cement, distribution of meat and water will be forgotten
because of the narrow margin in commons given tjie labor party
in the election, the sources said.
When the time comes for repeal of the steel bill Attlee may be
in the middle of a full-fledged revolt within his own party. The
revolt broke into the open at a private meeting of labor members
of the house yesterday.
A left wing faction headed by Health Minister Ancurin Bevan
demanded ful! speed ahead on nationalization despite the labor
party's virtually powerless position in commons.
The revolt was beaten down by Attlee and Deputy Prime
Minister Herbert Morrison, but it is expected to grow as time goes
on.
2. Failure of the state to show
that the air and not cancer killed
Mrs. Borroto.
When court reconvened after
the luncheon recess, County So
licitor William H. Craig rose
and said:
"The state rests, your honor."
Through its 16 witnesses the
slate had attempted to prove:
Admissions As Evidence
1. That Dr. Sander injected 40
cubic centimeters of air into the
veins of cancer - doomed Mrs.
Abbie C. Borroto The physi
cian's written record of the in
jection plus his alleged admis
sions to hospital officials and
investigators were allowed as
evidence.
2. That the air embolism not
cancer was the cause of death.
Two medical experts were used
to support this. t
3. That Mrs. Borroto was alive
when the injections were made.
The state used the testimony of
bedside Nurse Elizabeth Rose to
the effect she heard a "louder
gasp" just before or at the time
the needle was injected.
4. That the motive for the
murder was mercy. This evi
dence was introduced through
admissions allegedly made to in
vestigators by Dr. Sander.
Government Rests
Coplon-Gubitchev
Conspiracy Case
New York. Mar. 2 (U.R) The
government rested its espionage
conspiracy case against Judith
Coplon and Valentin Gubitchev
today.
Chief Prosecutor John M. Kel
ley Jr. announced tersely. "The
government rests," after Fed
eral Judge Sylvester Ryan de
nied the government motions to
expunge from the records ref
erences to FBI investigative re
ports which did not pertain spe
cifically to the case.
The names of several persons
investigated by the FBI on in
ternal security matters were
read into the record when Abra
ham L. Pomcrantz, defense at
torney for Gubitchev, asked FBI
Special Agent Cortland J. Jones
to identify his notes on his
search of Miss Coplon's Wash
ington office.
Ryan ordered the notes read
into the record. The witness was
stopped midway when Kellcy
objected that government secrets
were being exposed. Ryan told
him not to read the remainder of
the notes but later refused to
expunge from the record the
names that he had read.
Jones had been recalled by
Pomerantz in what appeared to
be a defense attempt to prove
the government secret papers
found in Mis Coplon's purse at
the time of her arrest were only
her "homework."

Rathbone Told
Bridges Was Red,
Testimony Claims
San Francisco, Mar. 2 (U.R)
Mervyn Rathbone. professed ex
communist and one-time close as
sociate of Harry Bridges, said
today he was once told that the
longshore labor leader was a
member of the communist party
national committee.
Under cross-examination by
the defense in the Bridges perjury-conspiracy
trial, Rathbone
said that in 1937 Roy Hudson,
previously identified as the com
munist trade union director, told
him Bridges was.a member of
the national committee.
Elected In 1936
Two other government wit
nesses said Bridges was elected
to the committee at a national
convention in New York In 1936,
but the defense introduced docu
ments indicating that at the time
of the convention Bridges was
on the west coast.
Some of the defense documents
are minutes of union meetings,
signed by Rathbone as secretary
of the district council of the
now-defunct Maritime Federa
tion of the Pacific.
Rathbone said that if any of
the minutes bearing his signa
ture indicated Bridges was pres
ent, then Bridges was present.
Working On Cat
He said he was "working dili
gently" on the Bridges case, but
had never marie any effort to
persuade witnesses to testify. He
said that he had, however, giv
en the immigration department
the names of persons who might
be willing to appear.
The defense announced today
that it will recall Bridges to the
stand to refute the Rathbone tes
timony. Rathbone testified yes
terday that he attended at least
40 communist party meetings
with Bridges.

President Never
i To Go To Moscow
While In Office
Door Still Open
For Discussions
Washington, Mar. 2 (U.R)
President Truman said today he
favors any move that would con
tribute to world peace, but that
he will never go to Moscow
while he is president.
Mr. Truman added as he lias
said many times in the past
that the door is) always open
here for discussions on any sub
ject. Declines Comment
He declined at his news con
ference to comment specifically
on a proposal advanced yester
day by Sen. Brien McMnhan (D .
Conn.) that the Atlantic council
lay cut a program for atomic
peace and that the UN assembly
then meet in Moscow to consider
it.
Mr. Truman did say, however,
that he would cooperate whole
heartedly with anything that
would contribute to world peace.
The president was questioned
amid speculation that the admin
istration may yield to congres
sional demands for new action
to assure the world of this gov
ernment's peaceful aims in world
affairs.
Would Lika To Visit
A reporter asked if his deter
mination never to go to Mos
cow applied only to the current
period of touchy issues between
this country and the Soviet un
ion. Mr. Truman said firmly he
would never go to Moscow while
he is president. He said he was
putting it as plainly as possible.
He added, however, that when
he quits being president he
would like to go to the Russian
capital and see the place.
It was learned at the news
conference that these two moves
arn definitely in the wind:
1. A big three foreign minis
ters conference, at which the pro
posal of Sen. McMahan for a new
approach on atomic controls may
be discussed. It was believed
likely the conference would co
incide with a spring meeting of
the council of the Atlantic Pact.
2. A personal appeal to Presi
dent Truman from his congres
sional lieutenants for a nation
wide radio address that the
United States as always is
ready to explore in the United
Nationals any sound proposal
for ending cold war differences
with Russia.

Representatives from several
Oregon and Washington cities
appeared before a hearing by the
U. S. civil aeronautics board
here Wednesday on whether
West Coast airlines should re
place United air lines in Salem
and several other cities of the
two states.
Some favored retention of
UAL. Others expressed dissatis

neutral as long as their commu
nities get adequate air service.
Authority Challenged
The one-day preliminary hear

Crisis Left Up To
President Truman
Likely To Ask
For Power Seizure
Washington, Mar. 2 (U.R)
John L. Lewis' United Min
Workers union was acquitted
today of civil and criminal con
tempt charges growing out of tha
miners' refusal to call off their .
strike.
Federal Judge Richmond B.
Keech's "not guilty" ruling left
the next move in the coal crisis
squarely up to the executive
branch of the government.
Called Emergency
Barring an unexpected con
tract agreement, President Tru
man is likely to ask congress for
power to seize the struck mines
and thus end a crisis which the
president himself today described
as a very serioua national emer
gency. Keech's ruling apparently up
held the union's claim that the
unior's officers had done their
best to comply with his no-strike
order issued February 11.
Union attorneys contended
that 370,000 miners have re
mained away from their jobs
"individually" by their own in
dependent action.
Assistant Attorney General H.
Graham Morison said the gov
ernment "undoubtedly" will ap
peal the acquittal on the civil
charge. It cannot, appeal the
criminal charge.
Would Taka Tim.
But an appeal would take time
and time is running out in the
coal crisis.
Keech's action cleared the way
for President .Truman to taka
drastic action to get the miners
back to work. Barring an early
contract settlement w h ie h
seems unlikely Mr. Truman
is expected to ask congress for
power to seize the mines.
Many miners have said they
would resume digging under a
"bona fide" government seizure
with the miners worktag for
the government and the profits
going Into the federal treasury
instead of to the mine owners.
