John L McClellan (D-Arki offered Sat urday to give Indiana authorities tome good leads to back charges that labor leaders James R. Hoffa and Maurice A. Hutcheson plotted to fix a grand jury. "We have good leads they could follow up that should be produc tive," said McClellan, chairman of the Senate Rackets Investigating committee. The committee temporarily wound up hearings on Hutches on' Carpenters Union Friday . with a charge that Hiitchcson's late father embezzled $250,000 of union property and willed it to his heirs. Maurice Hutcheson sat poker taced and silent as committee counsel Robert F. Kennedy made the embezzlement charge against William L. IBig Bill) Hutcheson, whom the son succeeded as Car penters Union president. Kennedy said the omhrzzlement Involved some securities and Florida orange grovo property now in probate as part of the Hutcheson estate. A few minutes earlier the younger Hutcheson balked at tell ing whether he had used union funds to fix a grand jury in Lake County, Ind. That grand jury looked into In diana's 1957-57 highway land scandals, but declined to hand down any indictments on grounds It lacked jurisdiction. However, an Indianapolis grand Jury later re turned bribery and conspiracy in dictments against Maurice Hutch eson. two other Carpenters Union officials and several state high way officials. They are awaiting trial. Hutcheson. challenging the com mittee's authority to question him on such matters, also refused to ay whether he had "an arrange ment" with Hoffa, president of the candal-rocked Teamsters Union. Kennedy said the arrangement Called for lloffa to make himself useful to Hutcheson in return for the hitter's support on the "ques tion of his I lloffa) being ousted from Ihe AFL-C10." McClellan said the evidence in dicated a conspiracy to subvert justice in Indiana. He also told newsmen he would ask Ihe com mittce to consider whether Hutch' eson's refusal to testify was in contempt of Congress. Hutcheson did not plead the ritth Amend ment. Next week the committee launches hearings on alleged gangster infiltration of various business and labor groups, lloffa is hilled as an early utness. Meanwhile, the Justice Depart ment prepared to open a grand jury investigation next Wednesday into allegations of perjury and in fluencing a witness bclore the Mc Clellan committee.

It expelled him into the Reds' outer darkness, denounced as a "Deviationist," "Nationalist" and "Trolskyist." For 10 years of on-again-off-aeain feuding and love feasting it alternately blasted him with every black epithet out of the Marxist- Leninist word - book and wooed him as a long-lost ally. Today, 10 years after his first historic break with Moscow, rela tions between Tito and Stalin's Alaska Bill Backers See Senate Okay WASHINGTON (AP) Heart ened by preliminary victories, backers predicted Saturday the Senate will vote next week to make Alaska the 49th state. Sen. Henry M. Jackson ID Wash), floor manager for the statehood bill, said he expected Senate passage of the measure by a 2-1 margin without change from the form already approved by the House. Jackson forecast passage by next Wednesday. Sen. Mike Mansfield (D-Mont), acting majority leader, called the Senate to meet earlier than usual Monday. He served notice it would work late and promised an early starting hour again on Tuesday. Mansfield said he plans to stay wun tne admission bill until It is disposed of. The first test votes Friday came on a move by Sen. A. S. Mike Monroney (D-Okla) to sub stitute commonwealth status for statehood and on one of the con stitutional challenges raised by Sen. James O. Eastland (D-Missi. Monroney's proposal, beaten 50 29. would have given Alaska local self-government and exemption from federal income taxes, but would have denied it voting rep resentation in Congress. Eastland sought to throw out as unconstitutional a section of the bill which would permit the presi dent, without any showing of emergency or declaration of mar tial law, to withdraw certain areas of Alaska for national de fense purposes. His effort was turned down 53-28. Mansfield told the Senate he hopes to get a vote Monday on a second of Eastland's constitutional challenges. He said he understood a third point of order by the Mis sissippi senator would be with drawn. Still awaiting action is an amendment by Sen. Strom Thur mond (D-SC) to require congres sional concurrence before the president could make the land withdrawals permitted under the section challenged unsuccessfully Friday.

STRIKE SETTLED PORTLAND (API-Settlement of a strike which has closed the Western Wirebound Box Co. since June 3 was announced Friday by the International Woodworkers of America union. Details of the settlement were not disclosed. fWKMI LooV For Yto "PKICI WIS!" U1& successor N i k 1 1 a Khrushchev .igain are near explosion point Many observers in the West be lieve the coming weeks may see the Communist camp strike to eliminate the lommunist rebel who retused to kow-tow to Mos cow. Tito's "cimr" was simnle and in Statin's Communist world it was unforgivable he was a Com munist who refused to take orders i rem the Kremlin. The red hatchet-men met in a secret ' kangaroo court" some where in Romania late in June, lWtt. All the members of the Red cominform were represented the Soviet Union. Poland, Czechoslo vakia, Bulgaria, Romania, Hun gary and the Communist parties of France and Italy. Ihe sentence was published on the morning of June 2b in Rude Pravo, organ of the Czecho slovak Communist party. Yugo slavia was expelled from the corn inform. When expulsion from the Co minform failed to bring Tito to heel, Stalin tried to crush him by a trade blockade. In June of 1949 all the satellites broke off trade relations with Yugoslavia. In August Russia withdrew her ambassador from Belgrade and on Sept. 28 she de nounced h er 20-year treaty of friendship and mutual assistance with Yugoslavia. The satellites dutifully followed suit. Alone, friendless and with his country laced with economic ruin, Tito refused to be intimidated Further, he remained a Commu nista truer one than the Rus sians, he claimed. It was his brand of Communism that was the real Marxism-Leninism, he as serted, while Stalin and the Rus sians were the "deviationists." But, if it had not been for the West, Tito probably could not have held out against the Soviet economic blockade, despite all his bold front. On Nov. 24, 1949, President Tru man announced he had allocated SI6.000.000 from mutual defense assistance funds to provide Tito for the Yugoslav armed forces. Five days later he asked Con gress for another $38,000,000 for food for the Yugoslav population. In all since then the U.S. has provided Tito's Yugoslavia with some $700,000,000 in economic aid and nearly $800,000, in military aid a total of $1,500,000,000 without any tsrings attached. Tito has accepted the aid but remained a Communist. Insecure UAW Truce Persists DETROIT (AP) The United Auto Workers Union Saturday com pleted four weeks of a shaky labor truce in the auto industry. Since June 1, some 400.000 UAW members have .been working with out contracts at General Motors, Ford and Chrysler. Many are not working full time because of cur tailed production. UAW members are under orders from President Walter P. ReuthT not to strike. An outbreak of incidents height ened tension Friday as the un ion continued deadlocked contract negotiations with all three com panies. No progress was reported as talks were recessed until Mon day. Chrysler said it plans to resume production Monday at its Ply mouth body and assembly plants in Detroit, where 5,400 employes were lnied Dy a labor dispute. General Motors charged a con tinuance of sabotage at its Fischer body plant in Kansas City. UAW members picketed a Ford Motor Co. office building in Dearbcarn. But GM and Ford said production was not halted at any of their plants. UAW Administrative Assistant Art Hughes said Chrysler was to hlame for the shutdowns at the Plymouth body and assembly plants. He accused the company of attempting to increase the pro duction quotas of employes. Chrysler said it had to close the plants on two shifts because of a work stoppage that followed a scuffle between two supervisors and two workers.

After leaving Klamath Falls Spokesman Blasts Tuncf SAN FRANCISCO (UPI) An official of the American Cancer Society Saturday declared open war with Community Chest groups for the American citizen's contribu tion to medical research. Dr. John W. Cline, a member of the cancer society's board of directors, said the community tund method of raising research money "would lead rapidly to the disintegration of the magnificent research programs now under way. i He praised the American Medi cal Association's House of Dele gates for its action in rejecting some $5,000,000 offered by the Na tional Community Fund organiza tion for medical research. The money, Cline said, was "tainted with spurious claims under which it was raised, the broken promises of professional promoters. . .and the certainty that freedom in re search will disappear." The cancer society has insisted on running its own fund-raising campaigns separately from com munity funds and has threatened to expel its San Francisco branch for associating with the Commu nity tund here. Cline said that in a desnerate. last ditch effort" to dispose of the S5.000.000 collected throughout the nation, the Community Fund or ganization nas set up research foundations in 13 cities "duplicat ing" other research work. The united funds. Cline enntin. ued, are not themselves bad. But ne said the professional organ izers" associated with them "have been attempting to take over the national voluntary health agen cies" and have "jeopardized the success of highly efficient health programs.
