Can't

wv Sit on Scandals

Fo or. Much Longer

By Scripps-Howard Newspapers WASHINGTON, Feb. 2—Ahother Cabinet member's

in trouble,"

Agriculture Secretary Chiacles F. Braiinan has been trying to sit on lid of commodity. storage scandals, . but won't be able to much longer. He made his own investigation of charge that men under him teok bribes, has - refused to let anyone see reports he got.

But story's coming out anyway: No mink coats (so fag), but many valuable “gifts” —TV set, luggage, Buick,

$100 gift certificates, free trips to pleasure resorts, -ete:.

Profits businessmen

got “friends” were large.

through their government

"Both Senate Agriculture and House Appropriations Committees have been taking a look. House group is ready to report. Senators are hiring accountants, will

explore farther.

-

In, Dallas, where scandal first broke, two Commodity Credit Corp. (CCC) men, fired for “inefficiency”

by Mr. Brannan, are ready to «tell Senators they were acting on orders from Washington. They'll say top officials here didn't want them to check on disappearance of government grain in storage. They have transcribed telephone conver-’ .sation, they said, to back them up. First hint of trouble came when Congress found - Pendergast politicians in Missouri had leased government property for almost nothing, made big profits from storing government grain. Eighty such cases were found. - 8 = NEXT came disclosure that large amount of government , grain—supposed to be in storage—is missing. General accounting office found a $3.8 Ris shortage in Dallas Some officials . think tal shortage may be around

$300 million. Private storage. -

men have been speculating with government grain — trying to sell at peak prices, buy back at lower prices. There's been little or no inspection to check this. And government has been paying for storage of grain that wasn’t there. . 'There’s some evidence that one membér of CCC board of directors—helping direct government’'s purchase program was speculating too, using official job. to help him make profit. Look for disclosures involving production and marketing administrati (PMA), the CCC's operating - agency, in San Francisco, Minneapolis, several Texas cities, Colorado, Ohio and the Dakotas. They'll concern deals in rice, barley, flaxseed; pinto beans, as well as wheat. Charges against government men include leaking information on bids and favoring certain bidders, and permitting ‘Warehousemen to sell inferior grains to government.

= 2 »

TOP MEN in PMA doled out wrist-tapping punishment when subordinates were caught in deals like this, con-

gressional investigators say. Men involved are Brannan appointees.

At other end of the deal. businessmen made big profits on minor investments.

Grain trade is more and more upset as story leaks out. Firms that "have not been speculating = with government grain are hurt as well as others. Elevator men say nobody will buy their grain—for . fear government will attach it later on as stolen property. And farmers are angry over suspicion whole thing's been beating down their prices .for grain, adding to cost of support program. . Story’ll be on front pages from now on, will reach almost as many towns as tax scandals. PMA has 12,000 full-time employees, 80,000 persons on ~ community committees composed of elected farmers, 3000 county committeemen chosen by community committees, and state committeemen appointed by agriculture secretary. They're scattered turough every state.

Eyes Other States

LOOK FOR KEFAUVER to enter Democratic primaries. in other states where he held crime committee hearings, became TV hero. List may soon include Florida, New Jersey and Pennsylvania. He's already in California, Illinois and Ohio, where hearings were held, as well as Massachusetts,

Hampshire, - either, but that state heard plenty about crime committee because of its Qqwn member, Republican Senator Charles W. Tobey.

Vandenberg, former chairman of Senate Foreign Relations Committee, set forth his views on NATO and troops-to-Europe plan; which caused the great debate. Sen. Duff declined to make letter public, following Sen, Vandenberg’s death on- Apr. 15. Now he’s turned letter over to Arthur H. Vandenberg Jr., who wil include it in his father's memoirs, to ‘ be published in April.

Air Chief Unhappy

GEN. HOYT VANDENBERG, Air Force chief of staff, is not happy - about de-

cision to “flatten out” procurement. top officers.

They've been overruled by Air Secretary Thomas Finletter, are “going along.” Mr. Finletter insists he's not disturbed by lag in plane production. Army takes this stand, too. Air Force has canceled no orders, is placing new orders. But at same time, it's notified producers to reduce future perday production goals. More orders have been placed for T-33 jet trainers, ¥-94 interceptors, and B-47 jet bombers, but government doesn’t expect to take delivery until 1954 or 1955.

This means-—among other things—we have to tell NATO countries such as Belgium, France, Greece, Turkey to wait thrée more years for trainers promised in 1952 (though we're scolding them for not building own defenses fast enough). F-94 interceptors are used to protect Washington, D. C., and key industrial against air attack. Some were

Air Force says it's also

* placed orders for other planes _

which can’t be revealed for security reasons. But delivery schedules * for these are also being flattened out.

It means revision of employment schedules, industry

sources say; revision of train-'

ing plans, and suspension of plans to open new plants.

Statehood Bil}

IT'S A TOSS-UP whether Alaska statehood bill will pass Senate next week. could decide it.

Majority of Southern Dern ocrats will vote no, but virtually -all Northern Democrats are for it. Sen. Taft hasn't indorsed it, but several Republicans have. GOP support may hinge on possible agreement to let Hawaii in, too. Hawaii has been voting Ré

publican in recent: years, Alaska Democratic. Do More Work AIRPLANES cost more

nowdays, b they do more work. It took 1000 planes to provide supplies during World War II Battle of the Bulge. Same tonnage is regularly delivered from Japan to Korea by 68 planes, though they must fly greater distances.

500 Million Mos lems Ship Age- old Feters Of Fatalism to Rise Up Against Colonialism

By CLY DE FARNSWORTH

. CAIRO, Feb.

2—The Arab world is afire.

It's hot. a holocdust —yet-—but a smouldering of religion,’ nationglismi and other combustibles such as poverty, ignorance, hunger and just plain cussedness.

It leaps to flame, fanned by a. new concept of man's rela-

tionship to God in which the

Moslems more "and more see® themselves as’ the masters of their destiny. That's the new flame of Islam, That destiny may be a Tunisian appeal to the

tions, a Cairo mob. snaking Mr. Farnsworth through the heart of the city with clubs.and torches, the disastrous idleness of the world’s largest oil refinery at Abadan, or the endless debate about Kashmif. The Moslems more and more gee such things as their own and others’ doings, and not as Kismet, fate, or God's predetermined will For 13 centuries the idea of predestination dqminated Islamic thinking... The very word Islam means submission to the will of God. But now the idea is catching on that, within limits, a man can make his own fate— and nations likewise. This is the biggest thing that has happened within this world religious community of 500. million. Overlaps Arabic Race They live on two continen from the Straits of Gibral

and the northwestern head-

lands of Africa eastward to the Pacific islands, from Equa-

cesses of Asia. . Here, in the Mediterranean basin dominating the land bridge between Africa and Eurasia, wheré Islam-was born and reached its greatest temporal glory, the community is something special. Here it overlays and oveérlaps the Arabic race, country and language that gave it birth, and so here race, language, religion and nationality complement each other. Here Islam nurses - feverish new patriotisms- in nations that were lately or. still are fragments of old empires. Great Oil Reserves Here it is caught between the play and countérplay of big power strategy in a world grown smaller and more divided and distrusting than ever. Here it sits on a great part of the world’s oil reserves in an area crisscrossed by strategic land, air and sea routes connecting the East and West. Here it allows a forum of rival ideologies. Here are the greatest «¢ contrasts between wealth and poverty. Here is where the flame of [slam burns hottest:

+ Egypt The most articulate wish of 20 million Egyptians is that the British leave the Suez Canal Zone and abandon their protectorate: of the Sudan either to union with Egypt or maybe to Sudanese self-de-termination by vote. The Sudan, a vast area of the Upper Nile - (one-third as large as the United States), is inhabited by about 10 million people, mostly Moslems, It was ostensibly subject to BritishEgyptian rule until Egypt broke its agreement with the British last October and proclaimed union with the Sudan under the crown of Egypt.

KURDISH TRIBESMEN—Target of the Reds.

© The British refused to recognize this or the simultaneous breaking of the 1936 treaty on the Suez Canal Zone, but stood on the . promise of Sudanese self-government this year and an undated self-determination. The British budged neither in the Sudan nor in the Canal Zone. ‘ Collides With Aims The British - AimericanTurkish offer of partnership in a vague security setup for the Middle East’ collided with Egypt's national aims and was summarily rébuffed” when the treaty was broken last October.

The United States is studying the Sudan situation for the first time and may be able to suggest a compromise if mediation falls to the Americans. : Kingpin of League Egypt, as the kingpin of the league of Arab states, has much to do with the trend they take on Middle East security.

Faces Internal Crisis

Iran's "action and Britain's

reaction has a profound effect on the course taken by Egypt's Wafdist government. It faced an internal crisis

which only social reforms and °

a general cleanup could cure, and needed popular action to perpetuate itself. The oil contract cancelation was ‘just the ticket. Iran, Moslem but not Arab, is a close, weak and exposed

up with a treaty allowing the Red Army to enter in opposition to any hostile base. There were no British bases in Iran. Iran's strategic.value lay not in lines of communication, but in oil, which the Communists probably never would be able to exploit and which could be replaced elsewhere.

Drift Into Chaos Iran was thus allowed to

her own making. Premier Mo--hammed Mossadegh, father of nationalization, is still in power and likely to remain so after Iran's present elections. But unless he gets an international economic lift and expert help to run the oil industry, Iran will continue her drift

into economic chaos — and probably communism. _ Communization of Iran

would pose an infiltration threat to the remaining oil arteries of the Middle East.

- Iraq

One of the great Middle East oil producers. bordering Iran's "fields and the Persian Gulf region in which the United States has such a heavy stake, Iraq has all the Middle East {lls — and then some. Unlike Egypt, she is severely harassed by a Communist fifth column. The Kurdish tribes that straddle the Turko - Iranian - Iraq frontiers are a principal target of Communist agitation, arming and manipulation.

Radio Moscow gives them pep

talks in the Kurdish language. Iraq has a constitutional boy monarch representing the Hashemite dynasty and a regent uncle who spin much of the maneuvering for a union of Iraq, Jordan and Syria. This i8§ an explosive idea in .Syria.: In December it helped precipitate the fourth coup: d'efat of Syria's post-war independence.

The thinly populated desert reaches of Saudi Arabia, the boom towns of the Persian Gulf oil fields and the older cities of the kingdom, now are the most peaceful part of the Islamic world. Lebanon, Syria, Jordan and Egypt all have extra preoccupations that exceed the threat of communism: in their estimates. They deal with the new state of Israel with which they still technically are at war. There are occasional border clashes and an incipient possibility of real trouble. Part of Islam Syria considers herself the most threatened by Israel. Any overall settlement that would arm Middle East states against communism might also arm them against Israel and Israel against Arabs unless their war can somehow be put to cool for good. urkey, of course, is part of the world of Islam, but is not so confused as her Arab neighbors. Communism -.is- next door but the Turks are strang and confident. The fevers of nationalism and religious fa-naticism-no---longer- shake: them. They caught the idea of self-made destiny a generation

" Maintain Liaison The recent arrival of Libya to nationhood and the hot nationalism and self-assertion in Islamic and Arabic regions at the opposite end of the Mediterranean probably had a lot to do with it.

Prosecutor's office recently dismissed preliminazy) charges of burglary against two young men for

as his clients.

Deputy, whose first responsibility is to public (taxes payers), filed letter of “intent” to sue City (taxpayers) for damages on charge clients were subjected to “false

arrest” in case.

However, Mr. Irwin said he later “dropped ae when further study convinced him that filing lawsuit -

as deputy prosecutor “might prove embarrassing.” b Prosecutor Fairchild didn’t censure deputy. “It's pretty hard to say sometimes what private cases a ‘prosecutor should take and what he shouldn't,” sald Mr. Fairchild. “You can't retire from law business just because you're on prosecutor's staff.”

Deputy prosecutors are permitted by law to éontinue private law practice while on public. staff. Most deputy prosecutors receive less than $300 monthiy for -parttime duty.
