ant secretaries of labor has been held up by a dispute between the White House and the CIO, a dispute that now appears to have worked itself into a complete deadlock. Informed sources said presidential assistant Sherman Adams uas advised CIO president Walter Reuther that the CIO nominee for assistant secretary of labor, John Edelman, is definitely “unacceptable” to the administration. Reuther submitted Edelman’s name three months ago under a traditional arrangement whereby the CIO and AFL each are accorded at least one representative of their own choosing in the lalbor department high command. White House objections to Edelman, an official of the C?O Textile Workers Union, were said to •be based on fears that Republican congressmen would consider his background too “socialistic.” . Reuther, however, has refused to submit an alternate nominee, contending that the CIO will be represented by Edelman “or no one.”? Thus, the administration’s hopes of sending all three nominations to congress at puce appeared blocked indefinitely. The question remained whether an i attempt would lie made to fill the traditional CIO post with an independent union official or to - fill just two, of the jobs. Besides the CIO and AFL representatives, the original plan was to have a businessman as an assistant secretary. .Mean-while, labor secretary Martin IP. Durkin and undersecretary Lloyd A. Mashburn—both former AiFL officials—are the pnly two appointed top officials to the department by the Republican administration. Both men have been burdened with paper work th it would normally go to the assistant secretaries.. \ i \-

Britain Protests Syngman Rhee Move Strongly Protests Prisoner Release •DONDiON UP — Britain has sent a Strong note to South Korea expresing its “shock” at President Syngman Rhee’s release of antiCoinmppist war prisoners, prime minister Winston Churchill announced today. "As a member of the United Nations whose military forces are participating in the Korean action, her majesty’s government strongly condemn this treachers violation of the authority of the U. N. command to which the government of Korea had agreed in 1950,’’ Churchin sajd in a house of commons staterneut. Announcing that the British protest note was delivered to the South Koreans today, Churchill said the British government was "shocked” to read Rhee’s statement last Thursday in which he said he personally ordered the release of the prisoners. '* C'hm’chiH said the government noted “with deep concern” (he escape of the prisoners. j “Her majesty’s government are anxiously awaiting the course of events, which are fraught with serious consequences,” he said. “Unless there is a government in the Republic of Korea which will cooperate loyally with the U. N. command, the security and welfare of its people as well as cU the gains which have been made by the sacrifice of so many, including the galalnt Republic of Korea armys will \be jeopardized.” This prime minister, backing up the United States, said “nothing could be further from the truth” than ihe Communist allegation that the V. N. command connived in the prisoner escape.

Long Distance Toll j Calls To Be Speeded Install Toll-Dial Into Fort Decatur’s telephone subscribers Will this week be able to dial Fort Wayne faster than ever before, announced Charles Ehingen Citizens Telephone Co. president. : With the advent of toll-dialing Into Fort Wayne, it will hegteeforth be unnecessary for the Fort Wayne operator to intervene : in connecting local customers. Several months ago Decatur became one of the few cities of its size to install toll-dialing to some |OO points throughout the country who participate in toll-dialing, and with this latest announcement, the oity can boast the most modern of equipment to route calls lyk Ehinger explained that his company has installed circuits at the Home Telephone Co. building at Fort Wayne, entirely owned and controlled by the local firm. Tjtilß will, in effect, act to improve Service to persons in Fort Wayne dialing Decatur numbers. They likewise will be able to get their local parties without a Decatur operator but by merely telling the Fort Wayne operator the number here that they wish. ■, ■~- i . Ehinger explained 17 circuits, in all will be in by the end of the week, three to cut in Tuesday. Decatur’s extensive toll-diaMng puts the <?ity about four years ahead of Fort Wayne, which •is contemplting the move in t|iat time, according to a recent newspaper article in Fort Wayne. In addition to service to Fort Wayne proper, toll dialing will be in effect to all suburban Fort Wayne points as well. To date only a handful of |he larger cities are not served through the toll-dial method. They are, Detroit, Mich.; “Chicago, Ijl.; Toledo, O.; Milwaukee, Wis.; and Seattle, Ore. It will still toe necessary to go through Chicago operators for those points, Ehinger said. As for the cities to the soqth. said Ehinger. virtually all of them can be dialed direct He revealed that these calls go through Indianapolis but the caller is unaware of it because the call is routed through the equipment there, sprt of like an express highway with no stop over. Ehinger declared scinetific progress,' and in the electronic fi4d in particular, has advanced eo far that the time is not too distant when a telephone subscriber may dial faraway points without having <o contact the local oper ator. This would for example, make is possible for a persons to lift his phone, dial the proper code, and be connected immediately with a point 300 miles A difficulty is seen, however, jn billing, which would have to be as automatic as the call itself since no operators have any way of knowing who’s calling whom, unless they monitor the system.
