LABOR POLICY

Byrnes Receives Brunt Of Attack; Big Four Attitude Rapped.

- LONDON, June 3 (U. P.).—Russia implied strongly today during an unprecedented assault on American foreign policy that it considered President Truman's anti-strike bill and other congressional restrictions on labor part of a plot against world peace. The Moscow radio denounced American anti-strik¥ legislation and added, “It is evident the govern-

ment has returned to Wall Street.” |

“The events have more than domestic political significance,” the radio said. “Organized workers represent a barrier against ‘the new world war which most reactionary imperialist circles are preparing. “Encroachment of reaction on the

rights of working people is a plot!

against world peace.”, Radio Moscow said May would go down in American political history as a month of reactionary anti-labor legislation.

Byrnes Assailed

The blast against American labor policy was the newest twist to a

week-end of press and radio abuse! Towa voters go to the polls today cratic tickets, permissible under

heaped upon the United States government, and Secretary of State James F. Byrnes in particular. A

parade of commentators sounded: Voters in California, New Jersey,

variations on the theme that the United States has begun “open violation and unilateral renunciation”

of the Potsdam and other Big Three|

decisions. Part of the Soviet press campaign was aimed at the British, but the bulk of it was directed against the United States. The newspaper Izvestia devoted

Berlin. > Treaty Plan Hit

“The measure outlined in the American plan for control over German disarmament is nothing

but a weaker form of Germany's in-|

strument of surrender,” ' Izvestia said. the treaty plan “undoubtedly reprecents a step backward.” The newspaper blamed the United States for the breakdown of a fourpower plan to investigate the state of German disarmament, as proposed by Lt. Gen. Clay at Mr. Byrnes’ instigation. “One can easily see the attempt to substitute investigation of the state of armed forces, which can be carried out easily and effectively, by the broad investigation of the economic system would plainly sidetrack the solution of urgent tasks . ..", Ivestia said.

“By suggesting an economic sur-|

vey of Germany, American authorities, far from adopting the course of realization of the Berlin decisions on the destruction of Germany's military and economic power, on the contrary adopt a path of open violation and unilateral denunciation of these decisions.”

Defend Demands American action halting shipment of reparations payments from the American zone of Germany was assailed, as were Mr, Barnes’ objec-

tions to Russia's “exceptionally moderate” reparation claims against Italy.

The next phase in the international battle of words resulting from the Paris conference was in preparation in London. Foreign Secretary Ernest Bevin prepared for British cabinet approval the statement he will make in commons tomorrow. It was expected the statement would redefine the British attitude on outstanding questions preparatory to the next conference session June 15. Among the Russian blasts at the so-called Anglo-American bloc was one in the magazine New Times. The publication condemned Anglo-American policy in Iran and Palestine, charged the United States with participating in the Chinese civil war, and said the British plan for India was only a scheme to divide and weaken the Indians.

COURT RULING SAVES INDIANA $3,000,000

WASHINGTON, June 3 (U, P.)— The supreme court today upheld validity of South Carolina's 3 per cent business tax on -dut-of-state insurance firms. Justice Wiley B. Rutledge read the court's unanimous decision, The issue was appealed by the

its business is carried on in many states. These facts, it said, placed it in interstate commerce and outside the reach of state tax laws.
