Kaufman was prejudiced, Mr..
Nixon said Prosecutor Murphy
worked against great odds"
Among other things, he criticized
the Judge for allowing Mr.. Stryker
to question Mr.. Chambers about
the suicide of his brother-"as If
that had anything to do with the
case on triaI'-and not letting
Mr.. Murphy ask Mr.. Hiss about
any similar event in the Hiss
family.
Mr.. Patterson, himself former
Federal judge, came to Judge
Kaufman's defense in these words:
T have known Judge Kaufman
for many years and esteem him
highly. have followed his career
on the bench and I am convinced
that he is an able and consciefl-
tious judge.
His rulings in the Hiss trial and
his charge to the jury. as reported
in the public press. struck me as
eminently fair.
Sees Blow to judiciary.
"It would be>a blow to the in
dependence of the judiciary and
to the sound administration of
justice If q judge were to be in
vestigated by a committee Of Con-
gress whenever the committee
didn't like the ruling made by the
Judge or did not agree with the
outcome Of the case tried by him.
The statements of Congress-
men critical of the judge are
therefore to be deplored.
The Hiss trial was the first
major case for Judge kaufman
who has been on the bench only
five months.
Mr.. Hiss himself was in seclu-
sion after the six-week trial.
Looking haggard and exhausted
when he left the courtroom, he
said he expects to visit his mother
in Baltimore and then go to his
summer home at Peacham, VT,
for long rest.

Ladies and gentlemen Of the
jury, there has been a long dis
cussion about the testimony Of
one Mrs. Hede Massing. The
court has ruled that her testi-
mony is not admissible. She will
not be called as a witness"
Last Tuesday, Mr.. Murphy
asked him to reconsider but the
request again was rejected.
Mr.. Nixon, who spearheaded
the committees attempt last year
to decide whether Mr.. Hiss or Mr.
Chambers was lying, said Mrs.
Massing should be called by the
committee now so the committee
and the public can determine
whether she has any information
bearing on the Hiss-Chambers
ease.
In a transcribed broadcast over
the American Broadcasting Co
network last night. Mr.. Nixon said
1t is important that Mr.. Hiss
guilt or innocence be completely
established and not left in doubt
because of technicalities."
He said the testimony of Mrs
Massing and William Rosen. who
was also barred from testifying
might have made a great differ
ence in the minds of the jurors.
Mr.. Nixon added, however, that
he saw no use in the committee
recalling Rosen. The committee
sought to question Rosen last year
about a 1929 Ford once owned by
Mr.. Hiss but Rosen refused to
answer on grounds he might in
criminate himself. Last March,
Rosen was sentenced to six months
in prison for refusing to answer
grand jury questions in the Hiss
case. However. the Supreme Court
overturned the conviction.

GRADUAL PRICE
DECLINES NEEDED

WASHINGTON. ID. c. The
American Federation of !. a b or
Monthly Survey declared that "a
gradual and orderly decline in high
prices is greatly needed now to IN
crease buying power OF workers and
other consumers and bring them
back into the market"
The danger OF initiation is grad
ually disappearing, the survey said.
"The need at present it said is
rather to make up the serious lag
in workers buying power so that
business can reach normal peace
time balance without sliding oil into
a recession
The present business situation was
characterized as "prccarious.' I'm
employment could increase or IN
ilationary policies might check
the normal downward adjustment
Of prices" the survey said
Much depends on the wisdom
OF union leaders, business execu-
tives. government officials, It
added.
Suggesting that buying power OF
workers must increase each year
in order to absorb the country 5
outpu, oi goods, the AFl said it
could be accomplished "by contin-
ued downward adjustment OF prices
or BY raising wages without IN
creasing prices as productivity
rises"

three fourths oi the workers were
