Soviet Diplomat's Wife Asks Asylum LONDON (UPD — Mme. Nina Dmitriev, 35, a -Soviet diplomat's wife who escaped to freedom with her five-year-old daughter, Lena, hid today from the secret agents she outwitted while the British government studied her appeal for asylum. Asylum is granted almost automatically in most cases. Her husband, Capt. Aleksandr Dmitriev, the assistant Soviet naval attache, was returned to Moscow late Wednesday by security agents aboard a Russian jet. There were two empty seats—for the mother and daughter. Madame Dmitriev apparently eluded the Soviet agents Saturday after they had seized her husband a long-time London resident. She fled to the home of White Russian friends. Later she formally requested asylum. There were conflicting reports of the cloak-and-dagger case. But a spokesman for the Home Office said early today, “Mme. Dmitriev has asked that she and' her daughter, Lena, be allowed to stay in this country and their application is being considered.” Dmitriev, who had served in London since World War II and returned here in-September with his wife and daughter, was reported seized by security agents Saturday in the apartment' the Soviet embassy has rented for 14 years. Mme. Dmitriev and her daughter fled shortly afterward, taking neither hat nor coat nor luggage. Capt. Dmitriev was escorted to a Soviet airliner. A British official at the airport asked Dmitriev if he wished to remain in England and he answered I wjsh to leave for Moscow.” Disappearance of thd woman and child was disclosed when the Soviet embassy arsked for help in ■ locating them and said they had disappeared instead of going to a Soviet embassy country retreat for the week end.

WARNS RUSSIA Cot ■,< from n« and management misdeeds exposed by the Senate Rackets Committee. Kennedy, a member of the Rackets Committee and chief sponsor of the Senate-passed anti-racket-eering bill, said Congress might as well forget about labor reform legislation until 1961 unless it approves a measure this year. Commenting on reports that prospects for House approval of any labor legislation were fading, Kennedy said there would be no chance to revive the Senate bill in the 1960 presidential election year. Sen. Sam J. Ervin Jr. (D-S.C.I. co-sponsor of the measure, said “the type of opposition to the Kennedy-Ervin bill indicates a pattern that defeated the Kennedy -Ives bill last session and that may well defeat effective labor reform legislation now.” The anti-racketeering bill, which the Senate passed 90 to 1, has drawn opposition from both labor and management. A rform mas--ur which cleared the Senate 88 to 1 alst year died in the House. Other congressional news: - Strauss: Sen. KUGENE D. McCarthy (D-Minn.) cautioned Democratic presidential hopefuls in the Senate that a vote to confirm Commerce Secretary Lewis L. Strauss would be viewed as' a voet for sweeping White House; power. jmcCarthy said in a state-I ment that a vote for Strauss I could be “fairly interpreted as approval of unwarranted extension of executive secrecy and the independence of the executive branch in determination of policy' and the administration of laws; passed by Congress.” Council: Sen. Alexander Wiley I (R-Wis.) proposed creation of a national economic council for security and progress to advise the President bn economic warfare against the Communists. The council would be headed by the. President and include the secretaries of labor, commerce and the treasury, the chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers and the budget director.

Cotton: Sen. Norris H. Cotton: (R-N.H.) said the Democratic-; controlled Congress is “killing time’’ and has not done half as much in five months as the GOP 80th Congress which former President Harry S. Truman called “do nothing.” Cotton said In a newsletter that only 30 bills had been passed by Congress and signed into law since January. I Taxes: Sen. William Proxmire (D-Wsi.) introduced a bill to cut; ‘the top personal income tax rate; from 91 to 65 per cent. He said the “confiscatory rates that now exact up to 91 per cent of a taxpayers income discourage, incentive, initiative and enterprise.” i Warehouse Fire Loss Estimated SIOO,OOO MICHIGAN CITY, Ind.

Los Angeles Union, Members Indicted LOS ANGELES (UPD-A Los Angeles Teamsters Union local and four union members, including an aide of Jimmy Hoffa, were under federal indictment today on monopoly conspiracy charges. The Justice Department said after the indictment was returned by a federal grand jury Wednesday that the case was one of the biggest in its current crackdown on labor racketeering. The indictment charged conspiyellow grease, which was described by the grand jury as a “substantial item in foreign commerce.” Among those indicted was Mayer Singer, business agent of the Los Angeles Meat and Provision Drivers Union, Local 626, of James R. Hoffa’s International Brotherhood of Teamsters. The union local also was indicted.

Singer formerly was a Teamster organizer in Hawaii. Last February he invoked the Fifth Amendment before the Senate Rackets Committee when called to testify on alleged extortion in the Los Angeles grease rendering business. Singer, one of Hoffa’s chief aides, was one of the men Hoffa recently sent to Puerto Rico to try to organize the island. Others named in the indictment were Lee Taylor, Hubart Brandt, and Walter Klein. Bond was fixed at $5,000 for each of the four men, with arraignment set for June 8 before Judge Harry C. Wsetover. Conviction on the charges, which accuse the four and the union local of price fixing and othei violations of the Sherman AntiTrust Act, could bring a $50,000 fine and one year in jail.
