Russia Calls For
Speedy Conclusion
Austrian Treaty
By STANLEY JOHNSON
MOSCOW, (A*)—The Soviet gov
ernment called today for the
speedy conclusion of an Austrian
independence treaty and with
drawal of all occupation troops
not later than next Dec. 31.
A joint Soviet - Austrian com
munique said Austrian Chancel
lor Julius Raab had assured
Soviet Foreign Minister V. M.
Molotov that Austria will not join
any military alliance or permit
the establishment of any foreign
military bases in its territory.
The Soviet government also'
pledged: (1) to settle its repara
tions bill against Austria for the
equivalent of 150 million dollars
in Austrian goods; (2) to return
to Austria all former German
property in the Soviet Zone in
cluding the Danube Shipping Co.,
and (3) to return the Austrian oil
fields and refineries which the
Russians have been operating
during their 10-year occupation.
The joint communique summed
up the results of negotiations be
tween Molotov, Raab and their
aides which began here Tuesday.
It was issued two hours after the
Austrian government chief, dep
uty chancellor Adolf Schaerf and
their party left in a Soviet mili
tary plane for Vienna.
“We leave here happy people,”
said Raab as he boarded the
plane.

Demos Fearful
Ike Will Run Again
WASHINGTON S e n a t o r
Bridges (R-NH) said Thursday
Democrats seem to be “very fear
ful” President Eisenhower wdll
l run again in 1956 “and I am very
certain he will.”
Bridges, chairman of the Sen
ate Republican Policy Committee,
said a Democratic National Com
mittee suggestion that Eisenhower
might not be “invincible” as a
candidate next year indicates ta
him the opposition fears the out
come.
“When they go to the lengths
of building up a strawman and
trying to knock him down a year
and a half ahead of the voting,
they must be very fearful that
Eisenhower will be a candidate
again, and I am very certain he
will,” Bridges said in an inter
view.
Bridges made it clear his refer
ences to a “strawman” was direct
ed at Democratic Digest efforts to
depict Eisenhower as an advocate
of “government for the few” and
as responsible for an “A.W.O.L.
Administration Without Leader
ship.”
The Digest, monthly publica
tion of the national committee,
suggested Eisenhower might not
be any more “invincible” in 1956
than former * Gov. Thomas E.
Dewey of New York was in 1948
when he lost to former President
Truman.
I he Digest listed several issues
! it said paralleled those of 1948,
including taxes, farm prices, Taft
Hartlev labor relations act revi
sion, economic and power-reclam
ation subjects. It said new issues
included the Dixon-Yates power
contract, school aid and highway
programs.

Labor Secretary
Asks Minimum
Wage Hike to 90c
WASHINGTON, Wl—Secretary
of Labor Mitchell testified yester
day that boosting the statutory
minimum wage to $1.25 an hour
would be “unsound” and raising
it to $1 “would cause very serious
adjustments in some industries.”
Under questioning by a Senate
labor subcommittee, Sec. Mitchell
stuck tightly to the 90-cent figure
recommended by President Eisen
hower earlier this year. It would
be a 15-cent rise from the present
75-cent minimum wage.
Mitchell said he knows of “no
sound reason” why the minimum
wage should not be extended to
employes of interstate chain
stores, interstate hotel and motion
picture chains, and some other
workers—about two million in all.
“Prosperity enjoyed by the
overwhelming majority of Ameri
cans should not blind us to the
minority of workers of low in
come,” Mitchell told the subcom
mittee.
Eisenhower proposed in his
State of the Union message in
January that the minimum wage
be raised to 90 cents and coverage
of the law extended to some addi
tional workers. He did ^ot specify
what workers he had in mind.
Labor unions have been urging
a minimum wage of $1.25, a fig
ure which has drawn public sup
port from Sen. Ives (R-NY) and
some northern Democrats.
