Visa Official Protests
Hearing Before Man
Who Brought Charges

Robert c. Alexander, assistant
chief of the State Departments Visa
Division. who is fighting charges OF
misconduct and dereliction of duty.
today protested department ar
rangements for hearing before the
same man who preferred the charges
against him.
He reiterated a request for an i'm
partial public hearing.
The charges against Mr.. Alex
ander grew out of his testimony be-
fore the staff of a Senate Judiciary
subcommittee last July to the effect
that subversive agents had entered
this country under cover of employ
ment with the United Nations.
Cites Protection by Law.
A three-man committee reported
to Secretary of State Marshall that
the testimony was irresponsible
and lacked factual support. Mr..
Alexander contends there was
ample factual basis" for his testi-
mony and that, in any event, he is
protected against disciplinary action
by law stipulating that civil serv-
ice employees shall not be interfered
with in providing information to
congressional committees.
The State Department set hear
ing in the case for next Tuesday
before Arch K. Jean, departmental
personnel chief, stipulating that it
would be informal and not public.
AssaiIs Dual Role.
Arthur j. Hilland. chief counsel for
Mr.. Alexander. wrote Mr.. Jean pro-
testing this arrangement He
pointed out that Nv. Jean had
signed the letter preferring charges
against Mr.. Alexander. Thus, he
said, Mr.. Jean would be in the dual
role of prosecutor and Judge"
In the circumstances he insisted
that Mr.. Jean would not be either
free or able to pass on the case in
an impartial manner.

'Thurmond Goes
To La PLATA for
Address Today
1,500 Hear Baltimore
Speech Amid Rebel
YeIIs and Cheers
By John v. Horner
S,ay S&sff rexrssnandsnt

BALTIMORE, Oct. 2.-The
States Rights Democratic cam
paign in Maryland gained mo-
mentum today as Gov. Thur
mond of South Carolina carried
his appeal for votes to La Plata
in the southern part of the
State.
His principal engagement Is the
coronation of the Tobacco Festival
queen at La Plata this afternoon.
I'm highly pleased with the re-
action in Maryland" Gov. Thur
mond said as he left Baltimore.
Everywhere we've gone the people
have shown genuine enthusiasm for
our cause. There is a great deal Of
misinformation about our beliefs
and our program. When this mis-
understanding is cleared up, the
people get behind us.
After all, what we advocate is
basic Americanism and the people
of the United States believe in that"
Sticks to Basic Theme.
Gov. Thurmond was in high
spirits as he set out for Southern
Maryland after attempting to WOO
Baltimore's regular Democrats away
from President Truman and to pre-
vent others from switching to the
Republican ticket. Maryland is the
farthest North that the States
Rights candidate is campaigning.
He is sticking closely to his basic
theme that the South has been sold
out by the Democratic Party and
that the principal proposals for civil
rights legislation are unconstitu-
tional and dangerous to all sections
of the country.
An audience of 1900 cheered
vociferously last night as he de-
nounced President Trumans adj
vocacy of Federal laws against the
poll tax, lynching and segregation,
and for a Fair Employment Prac-
tices Act.
AS the leading actor in a new
political drama, Gov. Thurmond Is
using sound effects and props strict
ly from the Confederacy.
Rebel Yells and Cheers.
During last nights speech he was
interrupted Is times by rebel yells
and cheers from an audience which
waved many Confederate flags.
A lad who said he was a reporter
for high school paper even turned
up at Gov. Thurmond's press con-
ference dressed in uniform of the
Army of Northern Virginia.
Greedy Bosses" Assailed.
Gov Thurmond told last nights
rally that greedy bosses" of three
political parties were making cheap
bids for the votes of minority fac
tions by indorsing force bills"
which they falsely call civil rights
bills. Later he identified the par
ties as the Democratic. Republican
and Progressive.
Gov Thurmond contended that
the States. not the Federal Gov
ernment, should deal with poll taxes,
antilynch laws and the Fair EN-
ployment Practices Act.
The States Rights candidate got

Through the Maryland Secretary
of State, Gov. Lane, Truman DEM
ocrat, sent letter of welcome to
the South Carolinian only as Gov
ernor of our sister State.
LAS you know" wrote Gov. Lane.
Il am strong believer in the two
party system that has made and
kept this Nation great. My welcome
must be to you as Governor of our
sister State of South Carolina and
not as candidate for the presi-
dency."

Violin Program
Given by Ritter at
National Gallery
By Elena de Soyn

One of the best arranged violin
programs of the season was given
in the National Gallery by Melvin
Ritter who played a return en-
gagement there last night. Since
his Washington debut year ago,
the violinist appeared as recently
as January in the Phillips Gallery
where he scored a legitimate sue
cess. He gains in accomplishment
continually. This eliminated yes
terday in his remarkable delivery
of Szymanowsky's second concerto
and Bach's first unaccompanied
sonata.
His ease of performing in public
has grown with every concert. 1t
was put to an unexpected test last
night when a small girl in the first
row seated herself suddenly on the
step almost at Mr.. Ritter's feet and
went through a long series of
stretching and rolling exercises
while he played the entire sonata.
The violinist was unperturbed.
What he got out of the number
places him on considerable heights.
The work can easily become dull,
meaningless tumble of notes, no
matter how f1awless the execution.
1t requires a touch of master to
make it alive and pleasurable.
With one orr two exceptions the
program consisted of numbers tax
ing the capacity of a violinist IN
more than one way. Haydn's Con-
certo in G Major" although not in
that category, was something of a
novelty. Within the knowledge of

kofieff, Stravinsky. Bartok or Szy-
manowsky. The modernists have
advanced immeasurably technical
perfection Without realizing it,
young violinists who play their
works undergo a rigorous training
which enables them to do full
justice to such monumental works
as Bach's unaccompanied sonatas
which never will grow old.
Szymanowsky's. concerto is some
thing of a fantasy. It's sensuous
melodies soar high and occasionally
work up to an anguished frenzy.
The concluding part has a barbaric
rhythm and swing. A tremendous
cadenza, vital and rich, could put
to shame any of the familiar ones
by the demands it places upon the
executant.
Mr.. Ritter gave a worlds premiere
to Edward Devils Song for Muted

Built along simple lines, it is be-
lieved to be an early opus. the first
essay of the master in that form.
1t does not exact the same amount
of skill required by the other two
Haydn concertos, yet, the edition
used last night was made notable
by singularly brilliant cadenza
which lent the necessary flourish to
make it effective. Z
The interest of the recital CEN
tered around Szymanowsky's Con-
certo No. 2, Op. 61' performed here
for the first time. In one movement
it is designed for a modern techni-
clan, full of passages which do not
lie comfortably in the hand. Com
