Reparations
LONDON, <#>) — The Big Four
deputy foreign ministers formally
exempted Austria from having to
pay war reparations to the Allies.
Russia accepted for inclusion in
the Austria independence pact
which the deputies are drafting a
British proposal saying:
“No reparations shall be exacted
out of Austria arising out of a
state of war in Europe on Septem
ber 1. 1939.”
In turn the west approved a
Soviet safety clause which allows
Yugoslavia to keep all the Aus
i trian properties, rights and inter
I ests in Yugoslav territory—value
! of which has been set at about
$15,000,000.
Mrs. Richard Nershack and

i Olive had been injured by the po
i lice. The consulate said Thursday
! he was beaten and seriously in
i jured.
Pension Or Strike (
Say Steelworkers
PITTSBURGH, (/Pi—A nation
wide steel strike may begin next
Saturday although one segment of
the industry is ready to go along
partially on the CIO United Steel
workers’ demands for a pension.
Inland Steel Corp., of Chicago,
which employs about 16,000 open
ed the door on the pension issue
I Friday night. The steelworkers
promptly closed it.
Philip Murray, president of
both the CTO and the steelwork
ers, didn’t comment on Inland's
offer. However, another union
spokesman said the proposal was
“inadequate” and declared it will
be rejected.
Murray is believed willing to go
down the line on his demand for
pensions for the men who make
steel. He hasn’t said what amount
he desires but the spokesman who
' termed Inland’s offer inadequate
said the unior* wants SI50 month
ly pensions. I

Jury Hun": Order
New Perjury Trial
NEW YOKK, f/P)—The perjury
trial of Alger Hiss ended in a
hung jury Friday night, and the
government promptly ordered a
new trial.
The jury, split eight to four in
favor of conviction, was dismissed
after nearly 29 hours of fruitless
effort to reach an agreement.
Shortly thereafter, attorney gen
eral Tom Clark announced in
Washington: “The department of
justice will vigorously prosecute
the Hiss case again as quickly as
the docket of the court will per
mit.” At the earliest, that probab

ly would not be before next au
tumn.
A justice department spokesman
here said that big, mustached
Thomas F. Murphy, the assistant
U. S. attorney who handled the
prosecution, will have the same
job again when the case is retried.
Hiss was continued in $5,000
bail.
Failure of the jury to reach a
verdict left still in doubt the role
—if any—that Hiss had played in
an alleged prewar betrayal of his
country.
