Three Quints
Arrive Home
MONTREAL Three of the
Bionne quintuplets were driven
homeward over Icy roads today
for a New Year's reunion wilh the
family they were accused of snub
bing at Christmas.
Yvonne, Cecile and Annette left
here last night in a car driven
by Ihclr 19-year-old brother. Ollva
Jr. They were bound for the family
acme at Ccllaudcr, Ont.
L.- M. Edwards, trust company
executive v,ho advises the. 21-ea;
old gills In handling the (800.000
fortune built up during their mi
mrlty, said Marie, the fourth sur
viving quint, remained In Montreal
because she is convalescing; from
a recent Illness. The mm sister,
Emille, died in August 1954.
"The girls are gcing to see their
parents to prove that there is no
question of them drifting away
from their family," Edwards said.
The girls' father said Tuesday
that for the first time in their lives
tbev had failed to spend Christmas
at home. He added they had not
even telephoned. He charged the
girls were "drifting away from
their family" and blamed "outside
ers" he would not identify for the
alleged rift.
Edwards said the girls were con.
cerned over their father's state
ment and "that's why they are
going to see them." He scoffed
at reports that romances may have
had a part in the misunderstand
ing, saying that none of the four
sisters has any serious romantic
interest. -
Kutcher Fights
For Vet Pay
WASHINGTON l-0ames
Kutcher. a legless veteran accused
of disloyal activities, carried to
Washington today his fight to save
his S329-a-month federal war in
Jury compensation.
A hearing before the Veterans
Administration Central Committee
on . Waivers and Forfeitures waa
called to determine whether he
should be stripped of his veterans
oenelits. -
Kutcher, who lost both legs un
der mortar fire In World War II,
was fired In 1948 from his job as
a file clerk in the VA's Newark,
N.J., office. He was charged with
membership in the Socialist Work
ers party, listed by the attorney
general as a. subversive organiza
tion. He Is still fighting that case
in court.
Then the VA announced Dec. 23
that a regional office had sus
pended Kutcher's $329 payment
Nov. 30. but that the payments
were being restored pending an
investigation.
Kutcher's attorneys, Joseph L,
Rauh Jr. and John Slilard. de
manded that today's hearing be
nncn to the public and that he be
allowed to confront his accusers.
VA officials indicated the pro.
cecdings would be open but that,
as usual in federal loyalty-security
cases, the unnamed accusers would
not appear to testify.
Kutcher has denied making what
ne called "wild statements"
against the government, but says
he favors a peaceful approach to
socialism.

Stale Department" without Inter
ference from Roosevelt,
i The late Joseph Stalin plainly
tola Roosevelt scon after the 1945
Yalta cuulerer.ce that he intended
to neve hi Poland a governmcn'.
which would establish "friendly
telations" with the Soviet Union.
Moscow advised the United
States in advance of Yalta that It
tvauled to break up Garmauy into
smaller nations, "demilitarize Ger
man industry, and collect repara
tions in machineiy over a 10-year
PCI'IOO. !
These and other fragments of
history some o them shedding !
added light on the origins ol the;
colu war are disclosed in the pub-1
lication of more than 40 previously ;
seoiet uocumenis ueariug on me,
Yalla conference.
Tiie Slate Department printed
the documents together with vast
accumulation nf other papers in a
1,032-pase, volume put on sale by
the Government Pruning olllcc
late yesterday.
Only these 40 or so items are
new, and most of them deal with
minor developments of the 1944-45
period. The great bulk of. the Yalta
papers were mtde public .last
March. Now the whole collection
has become available in book form
at 15.50 a copy.
Joseph Reap. State Department
press officer, said the new papers
came from "scraping the barrel"
in the Roosevelt Liorary in Hyde
Park. N.Y.. and from various gov
ernment aources.
The new additions provided some
interesting footnotes to the history
of that period near the end of
World War n, and included a
humorous touch.
The late Harry L. Hopkins, spe
cial presidential assistant, wrote
Roosevelt from London in January
1945, shortly before the Yalta con
ference, that he had talked with
Prime Minister Winston Churchill.
Hopkins continued: '
"He says that if we had spent
10 years on research, we could not
have found a worse place in the
world than Magneto (code name
for (Yalta) but that he feels that
he can survive It by bringing an
adequate supply oi wnisKy. He
claims it 1r good for typhus and
deadly on lice which thrive in those
parts."
Labor Strikes
Guess Made
WASHINGTON I The Labor
Department estimated today that
4.200 strikes caused 28 million man
days of idleness In 1955.
The number of work stoppages
was 21 per cent greater thin the
3.468 reported in 1954. Lost time In
1955 was nearly 24 per cent more
than last year.
The review noted that while
strike Idleness this year exceeded
1954, it was the third best year
since the end of World War II. The
number of strikes In 1955 was about
20 per cent less than the postwar
peak of 5,117 stoppages recorded
in 1952.
Approximately i'4 million work
ers were involved in the 1955 stop
pages, nearly 80 per cent more
than the 1,530.000 In 1954. The de
partment said a substantial p.rt
of the Increase resulted from one
or two-day work stoppages In the
steel and automobile Industries at
the time of contract negotiations.
The 1955 estimates were given
in a preliminary review of labor-
management disputes by the Bu
reau of Labor Statistics.
Partly as a result of long-term
agreements expiring during this
year, the number of work slop-
pages Involving 10.000 or more
workers rose to 26 compared with
18 in 1954. The average worker
involved in these stoppages was
Idle about 11 working days in 1955
compared with 17 In 1954.
Disputes over wages and related
issues were a major cause in 19 of
the 28 largest strikes in 1955.

House Plans
More Hearings
WASHINGTON Ifl A House
committee pl-obing governmental
information policies announced to
day plans for further hearings on
a reported attitude In some agen
cies that the public "has little or
no right to know" what Is going on.
Chairman Moss (D-Calif dis
closed at the same time that four
agencies have been asked to ex
plain why they use the term "con
fidential" to restrict circulation of
nondefensc Information. An exec
utive order of Dec. 15, 1953, lim
ited use of the "confidential" clas
sification generally to defense ma
terial. Despite the order. Moss said, the
Interior Department, the Federal
Reserve Board, the Securities and
Exchange Commission and the De
partment of Health, Education and
Welfare "misuse" the term or va
rlatlons of it to keep wraps on
nondefense information.
Moss' group, a subcommittee of
the House Government Operations
Committee, conducted hear
ings last fall.
Moss said information gathered
by his committee indicates "many
federal agencies have little Inter
est In opening up the avenues of
acess to public Information."
Current plans are to hold the new
hearings shortly after Congress re
convenes next week.

Election Fight
PARIS i A government admis
sion that a gendarme shot down!
a rebel suspect in Algeria to make
a picture for a photographer mode
strife m the North Africa territory:
the undisputed top Issue today in!
the French election campaign. '
Ex Premier Pierre Mender
France's chief organ, the news-i
paper L'Expross, first made, the
atrocity charge. Premier Edgar i
Faure's at first denied it, but an
Interior Ministry statement finally
said a representative of the Amer
ican newsrecl firm Fox Movietone
bribed the gendarme to shoot the
suspected rebel in front of his
camera.
Faure accused L'Expresj of act
ing "for electoral ends" and of
"losing sight of the elementary
sense of national Interest."
Fox Movietone's Paris office Is
sued a statement protesting the
bribery charge. It said. "Our rep
resentative! receive orders lor
scrupulous and impartial informa
tion only. We have no knowledge
of iheir ever having failed In this
duty."
The photographer was not lden-j
tilled but he was understood to be
French.
The government admission fur-S
ther inflamed the bitter political!
rivalry between Fame and Mendesj
France, chief political rivals in the
Jan. 2 elections of a new National i
Assembly. j
The government accused L'Ex-
press of damaging army morale.
L'Express had reprinted five pic
tures of the shooting from the
newsrecl film which first appeared!
last summer.
The Interior Ministry said the
photographer had been charged
with corrupting a civil servant and
that the gendarme would be tried
by a military court.
