East German Soldier
Trains Tommygun on
Adlai Stevenson
BERLIN, Itf) — A Communist
East German People’s Army sol
dier held a tommygun on Adlai
Stevenson in East Berlin Satur
i day and said in English “You
move and I shoot.”
Stevenson held still. For 20 min
utes, Red police and soldiers de
tained the defeated Democratic
U.S. Presidential candidate and
his party of seven persons who
had set out to tour the Soviet
sector of Berlin.
Before letting them go, the po
lice seized all the pictures the
group had taken of Stevenson
clambering around the bunker on
Wilhelmstrasse where Hitler is be
lieved to have committed suicide.
Then Stevenson completed his
tour of East Berlin without fur
ther incident—but with no more
picture taking.
Before crossing over, Stevenson
had commented, with reference
to the June 17 rebellion, “The
flame of resistance to tyranny
burns ever bright” in East Berlin.
“I pray for the day when Ger
many will rise again in freedom
and unity,” he told Lord Mayer
Ernst Reuter and other Western
city officials as he signed the
Golden Book at the city hall.

Democrat Senators
Refuse to Serve on
McCarthy’s Group
WASHINGTON, UH — Three
Democratic Senators ktood fast
Saturday in their refusal to serve
on Sen. McCarthy’s investigations
committee — a walkout described
by a Republican member as a
possible “magic formula to stop
all the work of Congress.”
At the same time, J. B. Mat
thews, whose ouster as committee
staff director is at the heart of
the dispute, said he can name
7,000 Protestant clargymen he
contends form the biggest single
group supporting the Communist
apparatus in America.
Matthews told a reporter he has
names of Catholic priests and
Jewish rabbis, too. But he said
he didn’t mention that in his Am
erican Mercury magazine article.
Chairman McCarthy announced
he will accept the resignations of
all three Democrats—Symington
of Missouri, McClellan of Arkan
sas, and Henry Jackson of Wash
ington.
But Sen. Mundt (R-SD), next in
line for the chairmanship, said he
hoped the Democrats “woiild re
consider their somewhat impetu
ous action.”
“We can’t stop them from quit
ting, but I would hope that in a
calmer and more objective mood
our Democratic friends would . . .
return to their responsibilities as
minority members.
“If the precedent were set that
they could stop the work of a
committee by walking out, they
would have found a magic formu
la to stop all the work of Con
gress.”
McClellan, Symington and Jack
son gave no indication of receding
from their stand yesterday that
McCarthy and his fellow Republi
can members had put them in
“the impossible position of having
responsibility without any voice,
right or authority.”
Martial Law Lifted
In East Berlin, But
Unrest Continues
BERLIN, (#)—Soviet Maj. Gen.
P. T. Dibrova announced Saturday
that martial law imposed on re
bellious East Berlin June 17 will
be lifted at midnight.
During 25 days of martial law,
the Russian military commandant
in Berlin had confirmed the ex
ecution of one Berlin worker by
his firing squads. More than 4,000
Germans have been arrested in
the Soviet sector of the city, where
more than a million persons live.
Allied officials said the impor
tant industrial cities of Megde
burg, Halle and Erfurt are known
to be still under martial law, how
ever.
East Berlin- still seethed with
discontent. Many workers contin
ued to be held in overcrowded So
viet and state security police jails,
awaiting trial and stiff sentences
as rioters.
But the Russian general, who
broke the June 17 revolt here
with 25,000 armored troops, ap
parently was convinced that
thousands of East German soldiers
could now maintain the Commu
nist grip without further direct
Soviet intervention.
There was no concrete evidence
that the crisis in Moscow over
Police Boss Lavrenty Beria’s
downfall had speeded up issuance
of Dibrova’s order. East German
Communist newspapers clearly
showed fear and cbnfusion.
Ben Hogan Wins British
Open Golf Championship
CARNOUSTIE, Scotland, UP! —
Ben Hogan has proved, even to the
skeptical Scots in this birthplace
of the game, that he is the modern
wonder of golf.
The Texan, four times winner
of the U.S. Open, shot a magnifi
cent 282, four strokes better than
anybody else at Carnoustie, to
win the British Open Champion
ship Friday with a par-busting
final round of 68.
Through the stretch drive he ig
nored chills, influenza and aches
from old injuries received in a
1949 auto accident to capture the
coveted title in his first try —
something no other American ever
was able to do.
The great Bobby Jones, winner
in 1927 and 1930, was among the
also-rans on his first attempt.
The old master, Walter Hagen, a
four-time winner, finished 55th on
his first trip and Gene Sarazen,
who took the 1932 title, failed to
qualify in his first attempt.
Antonio Cerda of Argentina fin
ished with 286 for a four-way tie
for second with Frank Stranahan,
Toledo, Ohio, amateur; Dai Rees,
chubby, good-nature^ Welshman;
and Peter Thomson, Australia’s
promising young golfer.
Social Security Urges
Brides to Notify Agency
On Change of Name
“June, the month of brides, is
over,” says 'James G. Browne,
manager of the Social Security
field office in Juneau. “Only the
Bureau of Vital Statistics can tell
us how often during the.,month a
MISS became a MRS. Actually,
we do not care.”
“However, the Social Security
Administration does care if you
change your name. We want to
know about it so that we can
change OUR records and YOUR
card.
“A Social Security account is
something like a bank account,”
says Browne. “If it belongs to Miss
Jones, we cannot post credits to
it for Mrs. Smith. Unless we have
been officially informed, we really
do not know that MISS Jones and
MRS. Smith are the same person.
Mrs. Smith may work and pay
Social Security tax, but we cannot
credit her account since it was
issued to Miss Jones.”
“It is very easy to change your
name in the records,” Browne
states. “A simple form, which
takes a couple of minutes to com
plete, is all that is required.
These forms can be obtained at
any Social Security Administration
field office. The Juneau office is
located at 104 Front Street, Ju
neau, Alaska. Those who cannot
come into the office should write
to the Social Security Adminis
tration, Box 1331, Juneau, Alaska.
