TUESDAY. OCTOBER 26. 1954 Adenauer Pledges Action on Pacts BONN, Germany, Oct. 25 (TP) —Chancellor Konrad Adenauer to night quick action to get'ratification of the Paris agree ments to make West Germany a partner in European defense. He made this pledge in a broadcast on the eve of his departure for the United States to. discuss West Germany’s new role in Europe, with President Dwight D. Eisenhower and Secretary of State John Foster Dulles. Adenauer said he will bring the agreements before Parliament as soon as he gets back. He arrives in Washington Wed nesday ,morning and. is due back in Bonn about Nov.-4. Adenauer told listeners to . the Northwest German Radio the new pacts guarantee. “we Will succeed in saving peace in Europe and the world and finally achieve German reunification.” The Chancellor toid the Ger mans these ' were the gains achieved at the Paris conference: • .1. After ratification, West Ger many will regain full authority over internal and foreign affairs. “The occupation period is ended, we are free,” he said. 2/ The seven-nation West Euro pean Union contains elements for integration of Europ e—“and thoughts of such integration have in no way. be,On given up.” 3. In joining NATO, the federal republic will become part of “the most powerful defense organiza tion .over known in history. 4. The wish for a French-Ger man reconciliation can be devel oped now that confidence has re placed mistrust and “nevermore shall the' two people tear each other to pieces in senseless war.” 5. In the Saar settlement both sides had made concessions to reach “a feasible,compromise 'hat every good German can support.” The last point was apparently the Chancellor’s answer to the storm of criticism leveled at the Saar accord by both his Socialist opposition and members of his own coalition. German critics of the Faris “package deal” have charged it will make German reunification more difficult, if not impossible, to achieve. Adenauer tonight retorted that reunification had “won powerful allies” in Paris. Earlier, Adenauer told reporters the Paris agreements give West Germany more power than would have been obtained under the re jected European Army pact. ike Loses Fight for Job Ruling . WASHINGTON, Oct. 25 (JP)— The Eisenhower administration today lost its fight for a Supreme Court ruling that'the President has broad powers to remove fed eral, jobs from Civil Service classi fications and make the holders subject to summary firing. Attorney ■ General Herbert Brownell had asked the high tri bunal to review and overturn a Court, of Appeals decision here holding that the White House lacks such authority. “Palpably,” Brownell said in his appeal, “the decision has a significance which goes far be yond the particular facts ... It places a broad limitation upon the capacity of the chief executive to manage the federal establish ment in the manner which-he be lieves will best promote effective administration.” Worker Fired The government worker specif ically is Leo A. RotH, a Justice Department lawyer who was fired from his' $lO,BOO-a-year job on July 31, 1953. ' The Appeals Court ordered Roth reinstated, but this was not done pending the, outcome of Brownell’s appeal. There was no immediate com ment from the Justice department or* its next move. Both is entitled under the Appeals Court decision —whicl* the Suprerne Court today left in effect—to back pay from the date of his dismissal, less any money he may have earned in private ’employment. The issue involved in the ap peal was whether the President may reclassify jobs from the class ified, of protected, status to the non-classified, or unprotected, sta tus. This was done in the case of Roth, whose .job was reclassified to the unprotected status, by an executive order.

Poland Claims Field Freed VIENNA, ..Austria, Oct. 25 (#>)—Communist-ruled Poland an nounced' fc&ay it has freed Cleveland architect Hermann Field, one of four members of the Field family who disappeared in turn behind the Iron Curtain in a five-year cloak-and-dagger drama. Twelve hours after the announcement was broadcast by Radio Warsaw, a U.S. Embassy spokesman in Poland said in a telephone interview ‘'We still don’t kn.Q'vyhis whereabouts.” But the release of Field apparently was no surprise to Washington Vienna! experts on affairs Jbe hihd the Iron Curtain said to night they had doubts that Field would ever return to the West, even though he may have been released from a Red prison. These, sources' based such speculation on the point that apparently Field's release was not the result of an agreement with the United States; and that the Communists may have reasons of their own for turn ing him free. Warsaw’s broadcast said an of ficial investigation had shown that Hermann Field, now 44, was the victim of a “frame-up by an American agent” in the Polish security service, and that there fore he has “been released and full satisfaction has been given him.” Polish Police Official This referred to the defection from Poland of Jozef Swiatlo, a too official of the Polish secret police. Swiatlo appeared at a news conference in Washington Sept. 28 and said Hermann Field had been arrested and held In a prison at Miedzeszyn, outside Warsaw. Swi atlo, who said he had been Field’s jailer, surmised that Noel Field apd his wife, last reported held in Budapest, Hungary, probably were dead. The Fields’ adopted daugh ter is believed a prisoner in a la bor camp at Vorkuta, in Russia’s far north. “Polish authorities,” the official Warsaw communique said, “last ■year ordered an investigation into a number of legal cases which revealed gross violations of the law. In the- course of the investi gation, authorities unmasked ah official of the Polish security ser vice as an agent of the American espionage system.” Swiatlo Is Agent : It ■ identified the “agent” as Swiatlo, who fled Poland last' De cember.

Vish ins'ky today lashed at the London and Paris agreements on West Germany and said they were lead ing to new threats instead of re laxing tension. “I say you can’t have new pacts which make for aggression while you are supposedly seeking dis armament in the UN,” Vishinsky declared near the end of a long speech on disarmament in the UN Assembly’s Political Committee. The Soviet deputy foreign min ister added that the Germans al ready “are dreaming of revenge and retaliation.' The immediate neighbors of West Germany will be the first to suffer from that.” He lashed out at the agrements on West Germany shortly after Moscow had set the pace with a quick attack on them. But at the same time, Vishinsky told the UN that the Russians had come closer to the West with their new look on disarmament and .challenged the West to make similar moves for agreement. India’s V. K. Krishna Menon, meanwhile, circulated to the dele gates a resolution calling on the UN Disarmament Commission to study ways and means of estab lishing an armament truce pend ing agreement on a disarmament convention. Menon also proposed that the General Assembly, scheduled to adjourn in December, recess in stead so it can come back into session quickly if the Disarma ment commission makes a report requiring fast action.
