Communists Campaign For Refugees' Return

\ By KAROL THALER United Press Staff Correspondent LONDON (UP) — A call is going out from behind the Iron Curtain these days to those who fled Communist oppression. It is: “Come Home, all is forgiven.” It is a worldwide catnpagin, costing the Reds a great deal of money. It is a strange campaign. Somehow it fits into the new "smile’’ technique of the Communist world, but just how is not yet completely apparent. There are well over one million exiles from Communist • ruled lands living in the West. (Russia and her satellites are doing their best to lure back these native-born with promises of clemency, good jobs—and threats of what will happen to relatives if they don't return. Numerically, the campaign has nqt yet had much success, with the exception of South America. But it is making inroads and it got a good propagadana push this last weekend when a former premier of the Polish government-in-exile announced he was returning to Warsaw. He is Stanislaw Mackiewicz who has been living in London for more than 10 years, working for the day when the Communist government of Poland would be overthrown. Mackiewicz last week attacked the United States ahd Britain bitterly, said he had "lost hope of freeing Poland” and, while he was still anti-Communist, had decided to go home. But the campaign is not directed alone at such intellectuals and politicians as Mackiewicz. It is aimed at all refugees. Why do some of them return? A Ukrainian nationalist leader in Buenos Aires, who says Russia is having "tragic success” with its campaign in South America, has this explanation: “It's a mixture of patriotism, ignorance, threats, propaganda and just plain homesickness.” The Soviet embassy in Buenos Aires has chartered several Argentine liners for the “refugee run” to Odessa. Two shiploads of 780 persons each sailed in April and May. It is estimated that by the end of the year, 30,000 will have gone back to Russia and satellite countries. The propaganda is, carried out by mailed publications, letters, movies, personal visits by agents. The United States government recently expelled a Soviet diplomatic aide because he engaged in

such activity. The emphasis is on “home, sweet home," not on Marxist doctrines. There are glowing descriptions of the life and work In the “New Russia" or “New Bulgaria" and a strong appeal is made to the patriotic sentiment. The campaign is being conducted vigorously in the United States; also in Candaa, Australia, Israel and continental Europe. In those places it has not had much success. Available estimates are that only some 300 to 500 Czech refugees have returned. That is less than half of 1 per cent of those who fled. Some 2,000 Romanians (less than 1 per cent of the refugee total) have been lured back. Russia has made one of Its most urgent attempts in Germany, starting with an appeal by Soviet premier Nikola Bulganin to chancellor Konrad Adenauer last fall to repatriate 100,000 Russian citizens alleged to be “retained" in West Germany. This was followed by a Soviet amnesty for political crimes at home and abroad and an unsuccessful move at the United Nations last October to obtain unlimited propaganda access to refugees. Why do the Communists want these people back so badly? The most logical answer seems to be that they want to whittle down and demoralize the centers of anti-Comraunist activities thia side of the Iron Curtain. The Communists believe the nucleus of counter • revolution to overthrow them would be these countrymen in the West. Then, too. the Communists gain a propaganda weapon when a refugee show his disappointment with the free world and his attraction to the "reformed” Communist regimes. But whatever their motives, the Communist nations are putting a lot of work into this "come home” campaign. Power Failure Fatal To Polio Patient ' I Efforts Os Firemen, Neighbors In Vain CHICAGO (UP)—An area-wide power failure singled out a helpless polio patient for death Tues-' day. The chest respirator whichkept him breathing went dead and he died with it. Firemen and neighbors worked frantically to save Marcel Bucher, a 33-year-old ex-professional wrestler. But he was pronounced dead less than an'hour after the power went oft. Bucher, a bulbar polio victim paralyzed from the neck down since 1954, was only one of 125,000 Chicago and suburban residents whose electricity was cut off when a 207,-000-kilowatt generator broke down. For most of the 125,000, the power breakdown meant they had to endure record-breaking heat without fans or air conditioners. For Bucher it meant death. Bucher’s wife, Jeanne, 35, said afterwards "The power went oft twice before, but he never seemed to suffer from it." This time, she sent her 7-year old daughter Alice hurrying to an attendant at a nearby gas station. The girl asked that he come to Bucher’s cleaning shop and connect a battery "jbo the chest respirator. William Hulska, 25, had the respirator on battery power within minutes. But the battery did not operate a suction device which kept Bucher’s mouth free of mucus. The frantic wife tried to call the Commonwealth Edison Co. for help. But the line was busy. Company officials said they were flooded at the time with calls from complaining customers. The next call for help went to the fire department. An inhalator squad worked over Bucher for half an hour. Then he was pro nounced dead. The power failure was felt through seven Chicago areas and six suburbs. Rowboat Overturns, One Youth Drowned MARTINSVILLE, Ind. (UP) — Walter Groce, 16. Indianapolis, drowned in Patton Park Lake Tuesday when a rowboat contnihing four boys overturned. Authorities said a fifth boy was hanging onto the boat from the water and it apparently capsized because of horseplay. Groce was a non-swimmer and his companions tried unsuccessfully to save him. His body was recovered nearly four hours later. One Man Killed In Headon Collision PUTNAMVILLE, Ind. (UP) — John Harris, 61, Springfield, Ohio, was killed Tuesday In the headon collision of two cars on U, S. 40 just east of the Putnam-Clly

Pirates Beat Redlegs, Take National .Lead By JOHN GRIFFIN (United Press Sports Writer) The Chicago White Sox escaped the humiliation of a no-hitter, but they’ll never win the American League pennant qptil they do something about Whitey Ford. That much was clear today in the wake of Ford’s four-hit. 4-2, victory over the White Sox at Yankee Stadium Tuesday night—the Yankees’ sixth win in six meetings with the Sox this year and Ford’s 16th triumph against only three losses to them during his career. The cocky, pint-sized lefty, who now has beaten Chicago three times this season, had the Sox hit less until Nellie Fox opened the seventh inning with a slow bouncer through the middle. With the pressure off, Ford allowed two runs in that frame before taking hold again to save the victory. Ford’s win boosted the Yankee’s American League lead to 4*4 games over the second-place Cleveland Indians, who dropped a 9-7 slugfest to Boston, and five games over Chicago. , Yogi Berra singled home a Yankee run in the first inning and Andy Carey’s two-run homer in the second made it 3-0. Carey singled home another tally in the sixth to offset Chicago's seventhinning runs singled across by Sber4nan Lollar and Walt Dropo. Cleveland bad a 5-4 lead over Boston after six innings on a tworun homer by Vic Wertz and a three-run blast by Al Rqsen. But Boston teed off for five runs in the seventh inning, including thzee on Ted Lepcio's homer, to clinch the win. The see-saw National League race saw the Pittsburgh Pirates regain first place with a 4-3 victory over Cincinnati, which dropped into second place, a half-game behind. Cincinnati scored three runs ia the first Inning with Gus Bell’s triple the key blow, but Jack Shepard and Bob Clemente each tagged Joe Nuxhall for a two-run homer in the fifth inning to give the Pirates a lead that relievers Roy Face and Nelson King preserved the rest of the way. The oncoming Brooklyn Dodgers took third plate away from the St. Louis Cardinals with a 6-4 victory. Duke Snider’s 14th homer, his third in two games, led Brooklyn at bat While Bobby Morgan and Ken Boyer hit Card homers. Carl Erskine was the winner in relief. In other National League games, the Philadelphia Phillies handed the Milwaukee Braves their 10th loss in the tast 13 games, 5-2, with a five-run fifth inning rally that included Willie Jones’ two-run hotner, and Monte Irvin drove in four runs with a homer and a double to give the Chicago Cubs an 8- win over his old New York Giant teammates. Under the Washington lights, Kansas City won the longest game of the year — four hours, 42 minutes —by scoring six runs in the 15th inning to down Washington, 9- Harry Simpson, who had homered in the 12th inning in vain, tripled with the bags loaded in the 15th. The time of game was only 16 minutes short of the American League record. Billy Hoeft of the Detroit Tigers gained his seventh win with a sev-en-hitter as the Tigers took advantage of * hits and fiye errors to beat Balthnore, 8-1. county line. George Schultz, 59, Canal Winchester, Ohio, 4 was hospitalized in critical condition and three other persons were hurt less seriously. State police said a car driven by Schultz Swerved across a divider strip and crashed into the second auto.
