TtTESDAY, MAY 5, 1953 Pakistan Command Sees Time Shortage For Armistice PA N MUNJOM, Tuesday, May 5 (JP)—The Allied com mand warned Monday that "time is . . . fast running out" in 'the revived Korean truce negotiatoris and urged the Reds quickly to accept Pakig tan as the neutral state to handle ,about 50,000 prisoners who refuse to -return to Com munist rule. Again the talks appeared head ed into a critical phase which threatened a new breakdown. The negotiations wer e' revived only 10 days ago after a six month rupture. "We are really trying to get an armistice," Lt. Gen. William :K. Harrison Jr., told newsmen after. Monday's 41-minute session. "But unless we are just dumb, the current negotiations as ,they are putting them cm are no 'different' from last summer." Harrison, , senior Allied nego tiator, took the initiative Monday when he nominated. Pakistan as the latest choice of the Allies to act as neutral custodian of balky Red captives. It was a concession. - Previously the UN Command had nominated first Switzerland, then Sweden. The Reds wanted an Asian country as neutral caretaker and talked of Pakistan, along with India, Burma and Indonesia, as four acceptable choices. But North Korean Gen. Nam li, the chief Red delegate, ignored Harrison's move. He failed 6i/en to acknowledge that the Allies had nominated Pakistan. Instead, the Red general de voted all his speaking time to a repetition of the daily Red de mand that no nation be picked for the neutral until both sides have agreed that unwilling , cap tives be shipped to neutral soil after an armistice is signed.

Supreme Court Outlaws Texas White Primariec- WASHINGTON, May 4 .(iP)— ' The Supreme , Court today out lawed "Jaybird primaries," open only to whites, in Fort Bend County, Texas. The decision broadened a 1944 ruling that Negroes may not be excluded from any election which is,a part of a state's election ma chinery. The high court ruled the exclu sion of Negroes from unofficial primaries conducted by the Jay bird Democratic Association in Fort Bend County violates the constitutional' guarantee' that no person may be .denied a vote on account of race. The association \ has been con ducting, all-white primaries since 1899. -The custom is to put the nominees of the "Jaybird pri maries" on the ballot in the reg ular Democratic primaries. Only Justice Minton, of the nine, dissented. He called it an "unworthy scheme," but took the position that the "Jaybird pri maries" were conducted separate and apart from the - Democratic party or the state and amounted to a "straw vote." Minton said the Supreme Court has power to redress a law under the 15th Amendment "only if the wrong is done by the state." Sees 'Unholy Trade ment = has never had any official policy to "refrain from aiding shipping companies that are aid ing the enemy." "Inconceivable—the most inex cusable thing I've ever heard of," McCarthy exclaimed as the story unfolded. At one point. McCarthy barked an order for 2 former foreign aid chiefs in the Truman admin istration—Paul G. Hoffman and Averell Harriman—to be called as witnesses. Later, however, the senator told his staff to hold fire on the order until he could get further facts on the situation. McCarthy's outburst came af ter Arthur S. Syran, director of transportation for the . Mutual Se curity Agency, which administers foreign aid, testified he called the THE DAILY COLLEGIAN STATE COLLEGE.

"I told them I thought it was wrong," Syran said. The witness said he understood that ,the National Security Coun cil is now studying the question and may come up with a policy pironouncement soon. "It is long overdue Many, many lives overdue," McCarthy said.

"SAVAGE TRIANGLE" DON TAYLOR "GIRLS OF PLEAPPRE mar loyalty Oath Declared Legal By Judge Bok PHILADELPHIA, May 4 (JP)— Common Pleas Judge Curtis Bok ruled today the Pennsylvania Loy alty Oath law is constitutional be cause similar laws in other states have been declared constitutional by the U.S. Supreme Cotitt. "Were it not for the federal cases we would unhesitatingly strike down this act," Judge Bok said. "But we feel bound by the basic constitutional law as de clared by the highest court in the country." Judge Bok's opinion upheld the dismissal of Mrs. Marie S. Fitz gerald, a nurse from her post at Philadelphia General. hospital last year. She refused to sign the oath required by law. This case was believed to be the first court test of the state act. The loyalty oath law enacted by the 1951 legislature was sponsored by Sen. Albert R. Pechan (R.- Armstrong) and requires all state employees and employees of state supported institutions to sign an oath stating they have not been and are not members of a sub versive organization. Mrs. Fitzgerald contended • she is "of the Roman Catholic faith, utterly opposed to Communism, loyal to the principles of the Unit ed States and Pennsylvania and is desirous that her rights under these constitutions shall not be infringed." In upholding th e dismissal, Judge Bok said hefelt it his duty "to declare the law as it is in the area affected by the case. We must leave to our appellate courts the possibility of expressing an other view as to the legal policy of the state." Sen. Wagner, Labor Law Author, Dies NEW YORK, May . 4 (JP)—For mer Sen.
