Freedom Airliner L •T . • Relumed To Czechs Plane Returned By U.S. Commission BERLIN, (UP)—The U. S. high commission returned to Czechoslovakia today the “freedom airliner” used by Czech anti-com-munists’ in their escape to the west two months ago. A six-man took off from Airfield for Prague on the Czech National Air-,linesfC-47 transport at 2:50 a. m. C.S.T. The commission returned the plane to its owners three days after the Czechs released American newsman William N. Oatis from imprisonment on “espionage charge.” However, the commission emphasized there was no connection between the release of Oatis and return of the plane. In answer to a question, Czech foreign office spokesman Cdenek Trhlik, who formally took possession of the airliner, said he did not know “if there is any connection between the return of the plane and release of Oatis.” Four Czech anti - Communists commandeered the airliner on March 23 while it was on a regular flight from Prague to Brno, Czechoslovakia. They skimmed across the Iron Curtain at tree-top level and landed at the U. S, air force Rhine-Main base outside Frapkfurt. I The ringleaders and two passengers asked for and were granted political asylum. Other passengers on the airliner elected to return to Czechoslovakia. I Woman Killed As Train Hits Auto . RENSSELEER.

Mother Kills Three \ Children And Self Tragedy In Barn On Illinois Farm < ATLANTA. 111. UP — Authorities said today they believed a mother, who bated her young son, put the torch to the hoy, two other children and herself in a murdersuicide plot.! They quoted the grief-stricken father as saying the woman “hated the sight of the little boy” because his birth had been difficult and he was delivered by caesarian section. The charred bodies of Mrs. Esther Paulin® Foley and her chil-‘ dren, (Michael Lee, 5. (Mary Lou, 3, and Frances Gale, 10 months, were found in a burned garage and tool shed near their farm home Monday. < i Logan county sheriff Clair W. Smith said “it evidently was a murder-suicide although we don’t know quite how she did it yet.” “We are not through with our investigation — and we are not quite satisfied.” he added. Smith was asked if there was any evidence that the 33-year old mother had tied her children in the shed add answered “that’s what we’ve been looking for so bard.” (He said containers of gasoline and other inflammable liquids had been stored in the shed. (Mrs. Foley’s 66-yt-ar old husband, Don, told Smith and county coroner Donald G. Holland that the wopian had previously threatened to kill her children and herself. Foley said his wife’s dislike of Michael Lee arose from her difficulties during hi& birth. Four other Foley children escaped death in the blazing garage. They were at school at the time of the tragedy. The building was damaged so thoroughly in the fire that the four deaths were not discovered for some time. Farmer Elvin Karrick and a neighbor woman both saw the flames, and the woman called Atlanta firemen who extinguished the fire. When Foley returned from a visit to town he discovered his wife and children were missing and a search was begun. Smith said ah inquest would be held later this week.

President Os AFL Hits Isolationists May Take Initiative From Eisenhower \ CHICAGO, UP — President George F. Meany of the American Feedration of Labor said today that “reactionaries” and “isolationists” may seize the initiative from President Eisenhower in shaping foreign and domestic policy. j - Meany, addressing the annual convention of the Interational Ladies Garmet Workers Union, said, “We can’t help wondering whether the President or the isolationists in congress will control oqr foreign policy.” “We can’t { help wondering whether the President or the business leaders in his administration and the reactionaries in congress will shape our domestic policy,” he said. He said labor must be ready “to mobilize our full political strength for the congressional elections next year.” Labor, he said, “cannot afford to sit back and wait four years” to find out who is going to shape the nation’s policies. Meany said the department of labor, the smallest of all cabinet departments, already is “unable to render adequate service to the nation’s workers.” Yet he said the congress “is now in the process of cutting its appropriation to the point where it will be almost Rmpossible for it to protect the nation’s workers from employer exploitation.” “This seems to be the present purpose of those on Capitol Hill who do not believe in protective laws for workers,” Meany said. Meany said Mr.\ Eisenhower urged continuation of the public housing program at a rate of 35,000 units a year, but the GOP-controll-ed house “refuses to appropriate one cent for it.” He said a forward step was taken in creation of the department

of health, education and welfare, but the American medical association was permitted to name one of its representatives to a key post “where he can veto any progress toward an effective national health insurance program.” Meany said the President asked congress to extend social security, but Sen. Robert A. Taft branded social security as “the greatest advance toward socialism yet made.” \ He said the President urged amendments to the Taft-Hartley act to “merit the respect and support of both labor and management,” but he charged that “big business” is putting pressure on congress to let the law remain as it Is. \ Meany said the director of the federal office of education resigned to protest budget reductions “which would lower the standards of education for the nation’s children.” "Yet right in the midst of the economy wave congress votes to give away to four states more than >50,007,000,000 worth of oil reserves off bur Coasts,” Meany said. Lewis Openly Feuds With Administration Opposes Lyon As Bureau Director WASHINGTON UP — John L. Lewis* first falling opt with the Eisenhower administration wa s warming up into a first class feud* today. \ • L l / The United Mine Workers chief charged that secretary of interior Douglas McKay “is willing tp have the blood of coal miners on his hands” by recommending | Tom Lyon to be director of the bureau of mines. H esaid he hopes President Eisenhower “reads the papers and may get to know something” about the situation before formally nominating Lyon. , Lewis, ire could result in a nationwide coal strike similar to the twd-week “memorial” walkout he called in the spring of 1949 to register his displeasure oyer former President Truman’s nomination of Dr. James Boyd to head the bureau of mines. After failing to change McKay’s mind about Lyon at a conference late Monday, Lewis met with newsmen and assailed Lyon as “a political hack” who is “not competent”' and “obviously . has no Qualifications” for ! the post. He said his nomination would be a “diabolical outrage” and a “political crime” against coal miners. Lewis said McKay told him he will stand by his recommendation, of Lyon. A spokesman for McKay quoted the secretary as saying after conferring with Lewis: “I am just as much interested in humanity and the welfare of the miners as John L. Lewis.” The spokesman said McKay would have no further comment. Assistant secretary Felix Wormser, who attended the conference, declined to discuss the situation. Lyon said only that “I don’t want* to get into a fight with Lewis unless I really have to.” Lyon, now acting deputy admin- 1

istrator of the defense materials procurement agency, for 22 years was geologist for Anacqnda Copper Mining Co., Waterbury, Conn. He later rose from chief geologist to assistant to the general manager of international Smelting and Refining Co., Salt Lake City. He also is president of the American Mining Congress. Lewis has accused the two com-’ panies and the mining congress*'of being “notoriously anti-union and antl-UMW.” He said after seeing McKay that “we will continue to oppose the appointment of Lyon at the instigation of Anaconda, International Smelting and Refining, and other companies.” Lewis said he and McKay “discussed the relative merits” of Lyon and John J. Forbes, present bureau director whom the UMW supports. ——4l—_• . p Corporation tax ] Cases Under Probe Say Snyder Aided Tax Settlements WASHINGTON, UP —The name of former secretary of the treasury John W. Snyder is expected to figure prominently next week in a congressional investigation of the settlement, of several corporation tax cases. Members of the house ways and means subcommittee investigating tax scandals said evidence already placed in the subcomhiittpe record indicates that Snyder helped the corporations get favorable tax settlements from the internal revenue bureau. f « . , . One committee source 1 said the corporations involved had been (friendly toward the Truman 'administration in which Snyder served as a cabinet officer for about seven years. Members of the subcommittee refused to go into details at this time abopt the handling of the corporation tax cases. JJowever, it was reported that the subcommittee has been told of at least one case in which revenue bureau officials agreed to give a corporation tax relief only after Snyder intervened. The revenue bureau is an agency of the treasury department. t T' ’' The subcommittee planned to go ihto the corporation tax cases after virtually abandoning hope of obtaining further testimony from Henry W. Grunewald, the selfstyled private investigator with important connections in congress as well as In the internal revenue bureau and other executive agencies. Subcommittee chairman Robert W. Kean (R-N. J.) said he would like to have Grunewald appear for further questioning, but that he would not insist on it. Grunewald. now awaiting sentence for contempt of congress, has been before the subcommittee a- dozen times trying to explain the interest he took in many tax cases. He was excused from further questioning last week after he pleaded illness. * , H > ■ Trade in a good Town —Decatur
