their intrinsic worth. Moreover,
though II Is local In character II
gives adequate report Of national

columns are especially we'll rea-
soned and hard hitting. All In all,
II Is u pleasure to read your news

would be proud to read.
Particularly must I compliment
Nell Dodson Russell on her jour
nalism. Speaking frankly, l must

ployed by Mr.. Tucker.
Mr.. fuckers statement said:
Last June I understood he (SCn-
ator FerguSon) had completed the
Tucker investigation. At that time
he issued a number of statements
TO the press. Some of them proved
incorrect because. we were told, they
were based on an unofficial repcrt
by discharged WAA Chicago zoue
employe.
James Daley and Henry O'Brien,
mentioned III the Ferguson an
nouncenlent, were employed by the
tucker Corp. some time ago when
they applied -. positions in the
Chicago COZ. -. Both had re-
signed from ~rnment service a
month or 50 before they made ap-
pllcation here. Both have national
regulations as business executives.
Oscar Beasley, widely known
Government executive, Is a Tucker
43 distributor in Richmond, Va,
sales territory. He was employed
some time after severing his Gov
eminent connections to draw up
plans for the Standardization of

Get Cases Reviewed

Federal employees dropped as bad

Previously the commission has re-
viewed such cases only on request
from an agency willing to hire the
dismissed worker, a spokesman said
The new Civil Service order also
gave the fired workers a limit of
SIX months in which to apply for
the review. In the past there has
been no time limit.
Officials said the new order NAV
open the door for future employ
ment to workers dismissed on secur-
ity risk charges from the State De-
partment and Central Intelligence
Agency. The latter agency has
dropped at least II employees fo1
security reasons, it was disclosed
yesterday.
The two agencies have the power
to drop any workers for security
reasons, without giving any details
The commission spokesman said
each case would be considered on Its
individual merit. Wee never as
