Friday, December 10, 1954) Moscow cuenta Saved nad Papers (Utah Forgot : Warn Against [To Tell Him German Armin By RICHARD KASISCHKE MOSCOW — Moscow’s three big morning newspapers warned the West=and especially France— again today against putting into effect plans to rearm West Ger- many. Following up last night's Soviet notes to the Western Big Three powers, Pravda, Izvestia ahd Trud claimed that if France allied itself with 4 rearmed West Germany it would be scorning the French- Soviet mutual aid pact of 1944, All three newspapers. said the Frenth would fake that step at their own peril. A similar wafting was contained in the Soviet hote to Paris. Like those sent Britain and the United States, the note ‘to France also de- clared the rearming of West Ger- many would force the Soviet Union and its allies to increase their own military strength. and would bar any new Big Four talks on Germian reunification. The newspaper comment was pinned to the 10th anniversary ‘o- day of the signing of the French: Soviet pact. Pravda’s article was titled “Pacts Must Be Observed.” The Soviet Commuhist party news- paper claimed France’s defeat by Hitler's forees in. 1940 was due to the. breakup of a similar French- Soviet alliance, The newspaper articles also said Western suggestions for new Big Four talks with Russia after ratifi. tation of-the Paris agreements are aimed “only to deceive public opifion in the West.” > On this point, Pravda said that while the West is preparing ratiti- cation of the German tearmament pacts, “an indéseribable noise’ is being made with obviously inspired reports as though France, together with the Upitet! States and Britai:, ig preparing some sort of parallel negotiations for a four-power coi. ference after ratification of the Paris agreements. “But the false quality of this | game is too obvious since the re- | fusal of France and the other coun- | tries to participate in the Moscow | Security in Europe.” BIG WAGE BOOST F SEOUL #—The U.N.

Bobert B. Crosby shortly will ‘receive extradition papers naming the “escapee” as 29-year old Leroy Chapman, of Oga Utah, now a prisoner in Nebraska's Lincotn County Jail. But the papers may not tell the full story of the prisoner with a sore hand, of his plea for a writ of habeas corpus, and of the judge who set him free but didn't fay Anything about when or whether he si return. It’s as complicated a ‘legal wrangle as Utah has seen in many a year. And it all started last January when Dist. Judge Joseph G.

Millikin (R-Colo) said today there already is an “irresistable demand” among Republicans for President Eisen- hower to become a candidate again in 1056. ‘ Millikin, who heads the Confer: ence of All GOP Senators, dis- ef, | counted in an interview any major split in the party because of the attack by Sef.

They askea for Chapman's freedom so he could take treatinents at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn., at hig uicle’s expense. Jeppson let the prisoner g0. The Utah Supreme Court almost im- mediately set the writ aside, in af opinion that cotttained sen- tences like “We ¢annot understand why he ‘was: discharged at ail.” The court ordered Chapman back to the prison, but’ by then he was appatently too fat away to hear, While Utah officialdom was try: ing to figure out how to get him back, he completed his treatments. in Rochester and dropped from sight. Last Ovtober, he was picked up in North Platte, Neb., . for earty- ing a concealed weapon. Sentenced to 90 days in jail on the charge, his’ term will be up next mosth, Utah is trying to arfange for his time after that. But his attorneys at any extradi- tion hearing aré certain to point out that when their client left Utah, nobody said he had ‘to come back, Okla.

McCarthy said afterwards he plans to remain in the Repiiblican party “at the present time.” GOP Natiotial Chairman Leonard W.

Goldwater (R-Ariz), who opposed the Senate rebuke of Mc. Carthy, said he doesn’t foresee “any great split’ in the GOP, Sen. Flanders (R-VT), who wrote the original censure Tesolution, said that increased support for Ei- ‘er among members of his own party “would seém to me to be a normal result of the kind of attack the junior senator from Wiseonsin made.” Eleven persons pleaded guilty rday in Criminal Court before ir ae ae Caro, C01 é office of Harry Dongo, clerk of Criminal Court, showed the names of the defen: ants, the charge, and the disposi- tion of the case.
