The President is returning from
his vacation at Key West, Fla..
today. He could invoke the emer
gency provisions of the Taf t-
Hartley Act, which call for an 80-
day cooling-oftperiod, if he thinks
that step is necessary to avert a
strike threatened for April 8.

Kefauver Tells
Truman to Let
Voters Alone
By the Assoc!ated Press
Senator Estes Kefauver called
on President Truman, in effect,
yesterday to keep ,hands off and
let the nation's democratic voters
choose their own nominee if Tru
man himself decides not to seek
re-election.
Kefauver spoke out, after read
ing reports—unccinfirMed but not
denied by the White House—that
Truman has asked Gov. Adlai Ste
venson of • Illinois to become the
administration's candidate for
President.
Truman withheld any comment
on the purported offer to Steven
son. Rettirning to Washington
fr o m his Florida vacation, the
President told newsmen he could
not say anything about it' at this
time.
Along with Kefauver's jab at
any king-malting move by the
President, a well-informed demo
cratic source in Washington sug
gested that Truman may have
little 'say about the choice of a
successor by the time the demo
cratic national convention rolls
around in July.
The President may find he will
have lost complete control of
everything by that time," the Cap
itol informant said.

Russia Offers Views
On German Peace
MOSCOW, March 27—(JP)—Diplomatic sources-said tonight Rus
sia has told the West that Germany should get the same military
deal as Japan got in the San Francisco peace treaty, even though
Russia still regards that pact as illegal.
Foreign Minister Andrei Vishinsky, in a highly unusual step,
gave his country's views Tuesday in a half-hour oral analysis of
American, British and French re
plies to Russia's proposal that the
Big Four sign a peace treaty with'
a unified Germany.
He talked to diplomatic repre
sentatives of the three western
nations after receiving the texts
of their replies, delivered jointly
to the Kremlin
Vishinsky t o 1 d the diplomats
Russia stands firm in rejecting
western proposals that elections
for an all-German government be
supervised by the United Nations.
He said such elections should be
prepared by the presently divided
East and West German govern
ments with whatever aid is neces
sary from the Big Four.
The West insists that United
Nations commission be permitted
to study whether conditions in
East' and Weft Germany are fav
orable for free all-German elec
tions. The West German govern
ment welcomed the commission,
but the Soviet-backed East Ger
man government refused to let
it in.
The Russian proposal is that a
united Germany, staying clear of
foreign commitments such as the
North Atlantic Treaty Orangiza
tion (NATO) and the proposed
unified European army, be per
mitted to build up her own army,
navy, and air forces for defense.

Railroad. Order
CLEVELAND, March 27—(?P)--
A federal judge today extended
to April 10 a temporary order
restraining unions of engineers,
firemen and conductors fr o m
striking against the railroads.
With the consent of both the
government and the unions in
volved, Judge Emerich B. Freed

expiration time of next Monday.

a three-day strike against the
New York Central lines west of
Buffalo and the St. Louis ter
minal association. About 5000
strikers walked off their jobs in
an effort to force action on their
three-year-old demands for work
rule changes, a 40-hour week for
yard duty, and pay raises.
