|CIapp' S Work in iva
Praised by Starnes
Al Senate Hearing
BY the Associoted Press

Former Representative Joe
Starnes, Democrat, of Alabama
praised Gordon Clapp's work as
general manager of the Tennessee
Valley Authority yesterday, while
Senator McKellar, Democrat, OF
Tennessee demanded "the facts on
alleged illicit relationships" be-
tween two IVA employees.
The Tennessee Senator projected
the question of the relationships
into a Senate Public Works Com
mittee hearing on Mr.. Clapp's NOM
ination for promotion to the au-
thority's three member board of di-
rectors. He said the iva while un-
der Mr.. Clapp's managership, had
paid for the travel expenses of a
married man and unmarried woman
who were not identified.
Senator McKellar has questioned
Mr.. Clapp's fitness for promotion
and has suggested that he failed to
use diligence" in preventing COM
munistic ''infiltration" of the agency
The Senator often has been at odds
with David E. Lilienthal, whom Mr.
Clapp would succeed.
Starnes Tells Of 1910 Probe.
Mr.. Starnes testified that a 194C
investigation of iva employees which
he directed for the House Committee
on Un-American Activities failed
to develop lone iota" of evidence
connecting the agency board or those
working on higher levels" with
Communism "in any shape, form OF
fashion"
He testified only three employees
were found who professed ever nav.
ing been members of the party. Two
of them swore they resigned, he said
and the third, a woman, was fireo
by the agency on evidence developed
by the inquiry.
81 have known Gordon Clapp per-
sonally for more than a decade,
Mr.. Starnes said. I'm my judgment
he is a man of the highest integrity
calm, cool, efficient, loyal and court
eous.
People in the valley, and I live
in the heart of the valley, have been
highly pleased with his record as
general manager since 1885,"
Can't Recall Case.
Senator McKellar told the COM
mittee that IVA had paid $2,478 in
1889 for travel expenses of a
higher officer" of the agency and a
woman employe who, he said, en-
gagged in "illicit relationships" He
said the pair made 16 trips carried
on at IVA expense"
The committee asked Mr.. Clapp
for details" but he said he could
recall no such case offhand and
asked for the names of those in
volved.
Senator Mcclellan replied that
naming names would be rather
painful" and MIR. Clapp agreed that
he probably should be told Gin pri-
vate" because "it might save what
may be some innocent employees
from the effects of gossip"
Senator McKellar said those in
volved were a married man and an
unmarried woman. Then in what
he described as an attempt to "re-
fresh" Mr.. Clapp's memory, Senator
McKellar asked if the wife of the
man did not "horsewhip the other
woman" Mr.. Clapp replied he did
not recall the case.
He promised to "look up" travel
vouchers covering the $2,478 men
toned by Senator McKellar, but de-
clared that the agency would not
have authorized travel expenses 'for
any reason other than official
business"
