The western powers pressed the
United Nations today for a probe
of slave labor in the Soviet Union.
The Russians countered that it
| was just a ruse to get spies into
their country.
I There appeared little doubt the
' United States would get the neces
l sary votes for approval of its res
olution calling for an investiga
| tion by the International Labor
Organization <ILOh
Delegates admitted the ILO
could send investigators into the
U.S.S.R. only with Moscow’s con
sent and the Russians indicated
yesterday that such consent was
hardly likely.
Diplomats of 33 nations ex
pressed to Pope Pius XII their
condolence on the sentencing of
Josef Cardinal Mindszenty of
Hungary. Of the diplomats accred
ited to the Vatican who were in
Rome today, onl ythe Yugoslav
Rome today, only the Yugoslav
the mass audience. He pleaded ill
ness.
The Pontiff, in an address of
gratitude, termed the mass audi
ence unique in the history of the
Holy See’s diplomatic relation
ships.
The Soviet trade union news
paper Trud claimed in Moscow
the Vatican and the United States
were involved in plans to form a
new Fascist axis and a Mediter
ranean bloc. A Trud commentator
said the efforts to form a new axis
were under the protection of the
“Papal crown.”
Strict secrecy surrounded the
opening today of the first of five
“Czech spy trials” before an eight
man U. S. military commission in
Munich.
The chairman of the military
commission, which is empowered
to impose the death penalty, has
ruled that revelation of the trial
testimony or even of the identity
of the accused would endanger the
security of the United States.
He said the court would not
make public its verdict in this
first trial. The charge is sale of
important secret information to
the communist-dominated Czech
government.
Emperor Hirohito formally in
stalled Prime Minister Shigeru
Yoshida and his new Japanese
cabinet today. The new govern
ment’s first job is to implement
increasingly strong American de
mands for economic rehabilita

in a bowling alley’s cash register
