in the. case and that the other
eight justices were equally di
vided.
The case was argued only a
week ago. Counsel ,for Martinez

evidence was produced to show
the Communist party advoated
the violent , pverthrow of the
American government at the time
belonged to it. -

For College
VATICAN CITY, - Jan. 12 (A))—
Twenty-four new princes were
added te-the College of,Cardinals
today in the richly colorful tra
ditions of the Roman Catholic
church. '
The majesty of the ritual was
tempered by sorrow, with Pope
Pius XII expressing his grief
that two of the new cardinals
were unable to leave Communist
dominated; lands to receive their
honors in person. They are Alo
jzijc Cardinal Stepinac of Yugo
slavia and Stefan Cardinal Wys
zynski of Poland.
The 24 new cardinals are from
13 nations and include-66-year-old
James Francis Cardinal Mclntyre
of Los Angeles, a native New

Street to study for the priest
hood. The College .of Cardinals,
the senate of the church, tonight
represents 27 countries - and is at
its full strength of 70 for the first
time in two centuries.
The Pope, robed in red and
white, spoke from his high throne
in the stately marble Consistorial
Hall• of Vatican. Palace ...to 22 pre
viously named members of the
college, garbed in ermine-trimmed
scarlet. Briefly, he explained his
reasons for choosing new cardi
nals and then intoned the ancient
question, "Quid vobis videtur?"
What do you think of it?
The assembled princes silently
rose, removed their red skull
caps and bowed their heads in
sign of_ homage and agreentent.
Disloyalty Action
Begun by-U.S., km
UNITED NATIONS, N.Y., Jan.
12 (10—The United States and the
United,Nations began a co-opera
tive effort today to rid .the world
organization of any possible dis
loyal American employes. •

request that he refrain from hir
ing any more Afnericans until
applicants have been checked by
the U.S. Civil Service Commission
or the, FBI.

Russia Asked to Join
In Austrian Settlement
WASHINGTON, Jan. -12. (IP)
the Western Powers" called on
Russia today to join in a new
Four Power effort to reach agree
ment on' a -post War settlement
with Austria.
The U.S., lAritain and France
said in notes delivered in Moscow
that a new meeting of Four: POW
er deputies will be suinmoned
shortly- in London.
The meeting was decided on,
the Western notes said, "rather
than to continue, the sterile ex
change of notes" over the Aus
trian situation.
,Be Sore to see. 4 •
• Martinez was admitted to the
United States for permanent res
idence • May l i 1924, at the age of
20. 'He said' he joined the 'Com
munist party, in 1932, remaining
a member for four, or five months,
before voluntarily withdrawing.
, The deportation proceeding was
started in 1949 on the ground he
become a member of an organi=
ation advocating
- the overthrow
of the governmet by force and
violence after his entry.
The Court of Appeals, in ruling
against Martinez, did not rely on
the 1950 Internal Security Mc-
Carran Act. It held that Mar
tinez's admission that he had once
been a member of the Communist
party- was sufficient to sustain a
deportation order against him un
der the law as it existed before
1950.
- But the court observed the Mc-
Carran act provides -for the de
portation of an alien _who at the
time of his entering the United
States or thereafter is affiliated
with the Communist party.
In other actions today, the Su
preme Court:
1. Upheld a set of rules by the
Interstate Commerce Commission
to regulate the leasing and inter
changing• of vehicles by_ truckers
operating under its permits.
2. Approved a controversial Na
tional Labor Relations Board • for
mulu for -computing on a quar
terly basis the back pay due cer
tain employes it found were un
lawfully dischargpd.

civil anti-trust suit against them.
Attorneys for the companies
insulting.
Arthur H. Dean, - counsel for
Standard Oil of New Jersey,
called it "outrageous blackmail."
Lawyers for other companies
agreed.
As the next step in the fast
moving drama, the Justice De
partment promptly announced
that unless the companies unan
imously accept the terms, the
government will go ahead with
the criminal action based on alle
gations that the companies have
set up a world-Wide price-fixing
monopoly. The companies have
repeatedly denied engaging in any
such conspiracy.
International Reasons
Truman had conditioned his of
fer by • stipulating that in return

produce their records as a basis
for a civil suit.
