Justice Reed Confirms
Subpoena in Hiss Case
By the Assoeioted Press

At least one of the two Supreme
Court justices who testified as
character witnesses at the Alger
Hiss perjury trial in New York did
so under subpoena.
This came to light yesterday in
the wake of published reports that
both Justices Reed and Frank
furter appeared voluntarily.
Mrs. Stanley Reed telephoned
the Associated Press to say the
report was inaccurate so far as
her husband was concerned. Later.
Justice Reeds office confirmed
that he had been subpoenaed by
defense lawyers for the former
State Department official.
Efforts to check with Justice
Frankfurter we're not Immediately
successful. His Office is closed.
In New York the trial court
clerk said he had no record of who
was subpoenaed since the orders
are issued in blank. Defense
Counsel Lloyd Paul Stryker would
not comment.
The question arose after legis-
lation was proposed in Congress
to exempt Supreme Court men,
bers from any compulsion to tes-
tify in such circumstances, even
under subpoena.
The jury could not agree in the
Hiss case and the Government
ordered a new trial.

her head between two seats and
threw her bodily" off the plane.
Then I went through the pilots
compartment. which was torn off
the craft. I found two pilots
struggling and a third pilot ap-
parently dazed or unconscious.
"All three were entangled in
safety belts and wreckage. One
man. James M. Adams. the CO.
pilot. was pleading with me to
get him out. 1 pulled the wreck
age off him and picked him up
and threw him clear of the
flames"
Mr.. Heacock said he did the
same with the pilot, Capt. Merle
Edgerton. and Tony Guessing of
Oakland. the navigator.
Guessing pleaded with me to
be easy with him as he was injured,
but the flames were already closing
in on us and I had no other choice
but to throw him over a fence"
At least five homes were badly
damaged. The home of George A.
Cordes, where the plane buried its
nose, was smashed to the ground

all feel that the conduct of con-
gressional committees toward in
dividual citizens has been good.
But there have been exceptions;

ings or confusion may sometimes
be the cause here. it is on account
of these exceptions that action on
a resolution of this kind is neces-
sary. The fact that the principles
of fair play are not violated very
often is no reason why we should
permit a situation to continue in
which they can be violated at all. )"
Would Not Curb Investigations.
DR.. Condor emphasized he
would not advocate restrictions on
the investigative functions of con-
gressional committees and said he
recognized the House group which
criticized him was constituted to
make inquiries. But, he added. it
is his opinion that committee is
actually quite incompetent in do
ing the job that it Is supposed
to do" E'r
Chairman Myers of Pennsyl-
vania asked DR.. Condor what
would have happened if the pro-
posed resolution had been in effect
while he was having difficulties
with the House committee.
presumably. there never would
have been anything like the public
stir or excitement which they
made about my name" he replied.
He said he objected particularly
to succession of newspaper
leaks from the committee con-
tanning accusations against him
to which he never had been given
an opportunityto reply.
Never Saw Bill of Particulars. .sa|
More than a year ago, he said,
a member of the committee had
stated that I would be presented
with a 100-page bill of particulars
and would have to talk pretty fast
to explain what was in it. To
this day I have never seen any
such documents, formally or in
formally"
The Lucas resolution would re-
quire that no committee make
public any derogatory information
on an individual prior to giving
such persons a chance to make
his statement on the data.
Senator Myers asked DR.. Con-
don, beside the point of the hear
ing, whether he thought Com
munists should have ANY consti-
tutional right" to Federal employ
ment.
The scientist said he was not
an expert on constitutional law,
but was inclined to believe that
under the present conditions it
would be desirable that there
should be an Interpretation in
which they would not have any
particular rights in the matter -
Behavior Has Improved.
DR.. Condor said the House COM
mittee had shown "a great i'm
provement of behavior" this year
over that of its predecessor in the
80th Congress. He said, however,
it still was acting unfairly toward
persons coming under its investi-
cation.
He cited the case of Prof. Ber-
nard Peters Of the University of
Rochester, about whom, he said,
derrogatory material , had been
leaked" to newspapers by the
committee. Then, on June &, he
continued, Prof. Peters was given
hearing in closed session, which
lasted 40 or Is minutes" and lin
no sense did it resolve the issues"
DR.. Peters. feeling he had rot
been given adequate opportunity
to clear himself, wrote for a fur
ther hearing, but did not receive
reply. DR.. Condor said.

ignore the letters of the victim, :"
