and Mrs. Mary P. Mcfarland of Han
over, N. j.. D. A. r. members. who
have charged that the national officers
of the society have "blackliSted" some
of Americas most prominent speakers,
could be accused of diSloyalty," 1t was
declared here today by Mrs. A j..
BroSseau. president general OF the d.
A. r.
Mrs. BroSseau denied existence of a
black list, so far as the national society
is concerned. although she upheld the
right of the organization TO bar any
speaker not in accord with its pa
triotic, all-American" policies. She
denied also Mrs. Macfarland's charge,
made public yesterday, that the nation
al officers Of the society have white,
washed" those involved in the oil
scandal "the organization taking on part
in politics"
"All these outbreaks are the result
of the appearance before Congress Of
Mrs. william Sherman Walker OF the
national society In support OF the Navy
BILL" Mrs. BroSseau asserted. They
are the outcries of minor members OF
our order who are not entirely in SYM
pathy with our stand for national de-
tense. The charges they are making
are either ill-founded or without any
basis OF fact whatever"
Refers to Marvin Speech.
Mrs. Brosseau said that Mrs. Macfar-
lands charge regarding the oil scandal
is based on a speech delivered recently
before the Hanover Chapter of the d.
A. r. by Fred Marvin. head OF the Key
Men Of America, an organization which
is fighting Communism and all forms
of radicalism in this country.

scandal during the course OF his speech

chapter he had documents 70 show
subversive forces were involved in the
oil scandal. Perhaps he should not
have made such statements unless he
could produce those documents-but /
believe he claims that he can produce
copies Of them"
Critical Of Mrs. Macfarland.
Mrs. Macfarland did not attend
the meeting at which Mr.. Marvin spoke,
She is very inactive member and
thinks so little Of the organization that
she does not even attend its meetings
When she heard about this speech. she
immediately protested TO me about it,
