Bill To Sell Rubber Plants Passes House • Synthetic Plants To Private Interests WASHINGTON, (UP) —The house passed and sent to the senate Thursday a bill , to sell the government’s 28 synthetic rubbermaking plants to private interests. Passage was by voice vote after the chamber defeated, 317 to 58, a motion by Rep. Wright Patman, D-Tex., to send the measure back to committee. The legislation provides for a three-man presidential commission to take bids and negotiate sale of the World War H plants which have a book value of about 1172.000,000. Reps. Paul Cunningham and H. R. Gross, both lowa Republicans, scrapped over whether members of the commission Should be allowed to, have any interest in rubber or oil firms. The bill provides that no member of the commission shall get a “substantial” part of income from oil or rubber interests. Gross introduced an amendment to bar any one who gets any income at all from those sources. Cunningham claimed the Gross amendment would “cripple” the plan and “we could scarcely get any one competent to handle this kind of work.” The Gross amendment was defeated on a standing vote of 49 to -19. \ If you have something to sen or DMUDS for rent, try a Democrat Want Add.

Soviet Tanks, Troops Stand By In Berlin Ready In Event Os Any Rioting During Red-Enforced Rally BERLIN UP t — 'Russian tanks and troops stood by for action today in case another riot develops during a Communist - enforced “rally” of East Berlin workers. Soviet soldiers kept close watch on Communist people’s police, who proved so unreliable during last week's uprising that the Russians junked plans to incorporate them in a big East German army. There were numerous reports reaching West Berlin which told of a sweeping purge against the people’s police force for its part in aiding angry rioters who were tired of Communist oppression. . The big mass meeting scheduled for the afternoon primarily was designed to show the Western world the Communists had .nbt lost their authority over the East Germans. Higly-ranking U. S. sources said Soviet troops in and around Berlin for the “rally” now outnumber Allied forces almost three to one. Russian forces holding the eastern sector under rigid martial law were identified as the first and fourteenth mechanized divisions which rushed into East Berlin last week, und the 12th guards armored division j brought in this week. Total strength of the three divisions was estimated at 35,000 men and 700 tanks. Some of the tanks were pulled back to the eastern sector’s suburbs. |i i The Communist regime announced the demonstration was organized to “support the carrying out of measures for the improvement of the population’s living conditions.” | j Reports reaching West Berlin said 826 people’s policemen had been sentenced to long prison terms for joining demonstrators or refusing [to shoot them. A number of policemen were shot, the reports disclosed, | West Berlin authorities said 187 people’s police had fled to the west since June 17, Including 41 Thursday. Communist police chief Major Gen. Vincenz Mueller informed the Soviet high commission that the east zone army-could not be 1 relied upon \in an emergency against the west. After abandonment of the army plan was disclosed, the Soviet zone cabinet announced a minor reshuffle which might be the forerunner of a big purge. r
