22 ‘American Spies’
Sentenced by
Red Chinese
LONDON, GPI—Red China an
nounced Tuesday the condemna
tion of 22 “American spies,” in
cluding a colonel and major of the
U.S. Air Force, to death or impris
onment. Peiping Radio said the
defendents included 13 American
citizens.”
The broadcast said the defen
dants were involved in two espio
nage cases “jeopardizing the se
curity of China.”
It said one group was led by
Col. John Knox Arnold Jr., of
Washington, who was captured by
the Chinese after his B-29 was
reported shot down in North Kor
ea Jan. 13, 1953.
Arnold was presumably the
colonel referred to in the report.
Under him, the broadcast said,
was Maj. William H. Baumer, 32,
of Lewisburg, Pa., described as
the operations officer of the 91st
Strategic Reconaissance Squadron
of the U.S. Far East Air Force.
He was aboard the downed bomb
er.
They were sentenced by the
military tribunal of the Supreme
People’s Court, the Peiping Radio
said.
Greek Shipping Tycoon
Sued by U.S. in Alleged
Misuse of Surplus Ships
WASHINGTON, (/PI—The gov
ernment Tuesday filed a suit ask
ing 20 million dollars from Aris
totle Socrates Onassis, the Greek
shipping tycoon, and his associ
ates for alleged illegal use of Am
erican war-surplus vessels.
In the suit, the government
seeks the earnings of 16 ships ob
tained by the Onassis group from
the U.S. surplus fleet in the years
1848 through 1951.
Under the law, the surplus ves
sels could be sold only to bona
fide American citizens.
The government now has crimi
nal indictments pending against
Onassis and his associates, charg
ing fraudulent acquisition of the
vessels through misrepresentation
that the purchasing corporations
were controlled by American in
terests, and so were eligible to
buy the ships.

> WASHINGTON, (41—President
Eisenhower said Tuesday the
greatest mistake America could
make would be to lose sight of
Russia’s quest for world revolu
tion and domination.
His statement at a news confer
ence was in reply to a question as
to whether there is any real indi
cation the Soviet Union’s talk of
peaceful cqixistence means a
basic change in attitude.
Eisenhower said Russia lately
has been talking in a somewhat
different tone—apparently mean
ing less belligerently.
But everything he has ever read
about the Communists makes it
clear that their ultimate objective
is world revolution and domina
tion of a centrally controlled state,
the President added.
Eisenhower’s discussion of the
international situation was
touched off by a request for com
ment on fears expressed by Sen.
Knowland of California, the Sen
ate Republican leader, that Russia
is promoting a policy of peaceful
coexistence as a Trojan horse to
lull the United States into a false
sense of security.
Eisenhower said you have to
distinguish between peaceful co
existence and just coexistence.
And, he said, he wanted to em
phasize there is no tendency on
the part of the United States to
take anything for granted in con
nection with relations with Russia.
A reporter asked Eisenhower
for comment on “the propriety”
of Knowland’s publicly questioned
administration foreign policy.
The President laughed and told
the newsmen he must have spent
most of the morning thinking that
one up.
Then he said that under the
Constitution the President is
charged with the conduct of for
eign affairs, and the secretary of
slate is his chief aide in that field.
Later in the news conference, a
reporter asked Eisenhower wheth
er the Senate majority leader,
who is elected by party members
in the Senate, is not a Senate
agent rather than a representative
of the executive branch. Eisen
hower replied he though that was
so.
The President said he tries his
best to get legislative consultation
and approval in advance in the
international field. He also noted
that what he called binding agree
ments, such as treaties, must be
approved by two-thirds of the
Senate.
