Book Outdated, Needing Rewrite Before It's Out By BARMAN W. NICHOLS United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON A new book hit the stands today. But its chances of getting on the bestseller list are remote.

In fact, the Congressional Directory, Eightieth Congress, Second Session, June 1933, price $1.50, will be lucky if it's read at alL Tour Congress has beat it home do some pre-election tub-whacking. It may not come back until the first of the year. By that time, we'll have a new poll of the people and there will be some strange faces around. Calling, of course, for a new directory. May Need Rewrite For instance, the authors conceivably may have to whip up a quick rewrite of page 311, among others.

Right there it says "executive department, Harry S. Truman, Democrat, of Independence, President of the United States, born May 8, 1884, etc By the time Mr. T. cuts his next birthday cake, a fellow named Tom Dewey hopes to be sitting on the balcony the man from Missouri built Looking down across the rolling acres of the White House lawn at the shrubbery and flowers. And then again, of course, Mr.

Truman may stay there and or page 311. Some of the fixtures in the directory have been there since you and I were young. Senator Kenneth McKellar of Tennesee, since 1917. Senator Arthur Capper, the Kansas publisher, since 1018. He isn't running for another term and won't be in the next edition.

And there's the dean of the house. Rep resentative Adolph Sabath of Illi nois, who has been around since 1907. Anyhow, the little blue book which came out today was out of date before it was delivered. 7 hile the proofreaders were working on the thing, Clint Anderson packed his files on the corn borer and left for New Mexico to campaign for U. S.

senator. The writers left it like this: "Secretary of agriculture (vacant)." Charlie Brannan, Clint's successor as secretary, had to pencil in his name after press time. Space Empty The vice-president space, which has been empty since F. D. R.

died and Mr. Truman moved up a notch, remains empty. But a couple of other people have an eye on that. The new book is interesting read ing if you like to dig between the lines. A lot of folks are worried.

Some Republican; some Democrat. Maybe they'll be in the next edition maybe not. The people have a lot to say about that. Voters, after all, ghost-write the congressional directory for the most part. But one old-timer who is sleeping well and feeling pains is Bill Mann.

Atomic Bomb Said Russia's Second Fear SAN FRANCISCO The American Federation of Labor's delegate to the International Labor Organization charged at the I. L.

fourth plenary session that Russia fears American ideas more than it does the atomic bomb. Frank Fenton, International representative of the A. F. spoke during a discussion of Director General Edward Phelan's annual report to the I. L.

O. Most of the diseus- concerned the Marshal Plan. Nine of the 13 speakers discussing the report expressed appreciation, disapproval or need of the European recovery progran. "Those who describe the Marshall Plan as imperialistic," Fenton said, 'are trying to deceive someone, whether it's the public or themselves, or both. "The rulers of Russia are more nfraid of tlie ideas of free Ameri- than of the atoms in our arsenals." Henry K.

Altman, director of the ministry of labor and social welfare for Poland, attacked E. R. P. "The Marshall Plan provides for he reconstruction of heavy indus- in Germany and gives priority Germany which has not been de- nazified or democratized. Poland will never cease objecting to this," said.

He added that there has been 'discrimination against countries in eastern and central Europe." Port Chicagp Land Price Ruled Low SAN FRANCISCO The navy's price of $18 an acre for 2100 acres of land southeast of Port Chicago is not enough because the property apparently contains vast quantities of natural gas, the U. S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled Wednesday. The Appellate Court granted an appeal by the Cal-Bay Corporation, Maria, Joseph and Edward Faria and Mne K. Roche that they should be paid more than the navy price for the property, which now is being used as an ammunition dump.

The circuit court reversed a district court decision and sent the case back for retrial, ruling that if the navy wants to keep the dump it must pay adequately for the natural gas. The appellants claimed the gas deposits are capable of producing 125,000 cubic feet a day. Ex-Star Jailed After Marriage HOLLYWOOD Alberta Vaughn, 37, once a star of the silent screen, was sent to jail Wednesday for getting married without the permission of the county probation office.

Kawakita, 27-year-old Nisei, is on for treason and charged with 15 acts of brutality to Allied prison- at the Oeyaiua prison camp in Honshu, Japan. Master Sergeant-William Gage of East St. Louis, 111., testified Wednesday of a conversation he liad with Kawakita while a prisoner of war at the camp where the de- 'endant served as interpreter. "He boasted that he would come back to the United States and be a big shot because he knew the coun- ry, the people and the language," Gage said. Predicted Jap Victory Gage testifield Kawakita told prisoners that "the war will last 20 years and Japan will win it." Gage also supported earlier testimony that J.

C. Grant of had been beaten by Kawakita. "I saw Grant standing waist deep in a cesspool," Gage related. "He was shivering. The Japs were trying to make him sit down in the water.

He wouldn't do it." Gage said he saw Kawakita and two Japanese sergeants hit Grant with long bamboo poles. "Kawakita was smiling and laughing as he beat him," Gage said. Knocked in Snow Another government witness, Morton Feinberg of Philadelphia, testified that Kawakita knocked an American prisoner of war into the snow on New Year's Day of 1945 and left him lying there unconscious. Feinberg said he saw Kawakita attack Einar A. Latvala of Hibbing, after the latter was brought in as a straggler from a wood- carrying detail at the Oeyama camp.

"That was the last I ever saw of Latvala alive," Feinberg said.
