Bookshop Hits Clark,
Then Is Questioned
On Subyersive LIST
By Robert K. Walsh

D.! A Washington Cooperative
Bookshop spokesman today asked
the Senate Judiciary Committee
to reject the nomination Of At
torney General Clark for the Su-
preme Court and in turn was
questioned sharply about activities
that caused Mr.. Clark to list the
bookshop as a subversive organi-
Zation.
Alfred Henley, an optical engi-
neer, spoke for the bookshop. 10
Gated at GIG Seventeenth, street
NV. He denied the bookshop is
subversive or has Communist
leanings.
Another Washington witness,
Attorney James J. Laughlin, sup
ported Mr.. Clark against asser-
tions yesterday by former Assist
ant Attorney General o. John
Rogge that Mr.. Clark violated
civil rights.
Laughlin Criticizes Rogge.
Recalling that he represented
two of the defendants in the 1914
mass sedition trial prosecuted by
Mr.. Rogge as a special assistant
to the attorney general. Mr..
ILaughlin declared that Mr.. Royce
did everything conceivable to vio-
late civil rights OF defendants at
that trial"
Mr.. Laughlin said Mr.. Clark was
not a perfect subject for the
Supreme Court" but that he
would adjust himself to the tri-
bunal and be a good judge.
Charges that Mr.. Clark is anti
Negro and anti-labor were de-
scribed by Mr.. Laughlin as "a
Communist cover-up and all
bunk"
While Mr.. Henley was on the
stand, he was asked by committee
members why he believes Mr..
Clark included the bookshop on
the subversive list.
Mr.. Henley replied: HE gave
absolutely no reason, and that is
a reprehensible thing. I believe
that he blacklisted the bookshop
because it encourages people of
all races and opinions to get to-
gether and discuss issues and per-
haps adopt resolutions on such
matters as self government for
Washington. if1ter-racial affairs
and opposition to some aspects of
the administrations foreign pol
icy.
Final Session Set Today.
In a determined effort to wind
up the public hearings that be-
gan last Tuesday and included
three-hour session last night,
Chairman McCarran arranged
final session for two remaining
witnesses late this afternoon.
The other witness at the morn
ing session was the Rev. Clarence
Parker, a retired Episcopal min
lister of Chicago. He said he is
co-chairman of the Illinois branch
OF the Civil Rights Congress, an
organization on the Attorney
Generals list of subversive organ
izations.
He said Mr.. Clark was unfit for
a Supreme Court position if only
because of his preparation of such
list without giving organizations
an opportunity to be heard.

She didn't notice that the car
she picked up had white sidewall
tires and a radio.
But the owner did. When John
P. Graham of Colmar Manor, Md,
came to pick up his car about two
hours later. he noticed that the
attendant gave him an ordinary
model green 1949 Plymouth sedan
instead of a de luxe model. From
the tag number of the Luddeke
car, he found that Mr.. Luddeke
lived in Cumberland.
He called police who broadcast

Strong New Shocks
Felt in Ecuador Area
Ravaged by 0uakes

QUITO. Ecuador, Aug. H.
Strong earth shocks were reported
last night in already-ravaged Am
bato. center of the area struck by
series of disastrous earthquakes
which began last week.
A broadcast from Ambato said
the remaining inhabitants of the
town were panic-stricken as a few
more houses. weakened by previ-
Gus tremors. collapsed. The broad
cast did not say whether there
were any new casualties.
Meanwhile. relief forces pushed
additional supplies into the
stricken area. where the govern
ment estimates 5000 persons were
killed last week.
Additional tents and canvas
we're shipped to the region. about
90 miles south of Quito. by truck
and plane. The American Red
Cross said 10 United States Air
Force transport planes were en-
route here from the Canal Zone
with tents to house some 5000
persons.
Maurice Reddy, assistant ad-
ministrator of disaster relief for
the American Red Cross. said:
I'VE believe that this, with tents
and shelters already provided 10
cally, will take care of the most
urgent cases of homeless. While
this seems small, in view of the
fact it is estimated 100000 lost
their homes, it is generally true in
such instances that most of the
homeless are taken in by friends,
relatives and others wishing to
aid the distressed. The food dis
tribution system also has been
improved"
Witnesses reported one of the
most fantastic pranks Of the
quake-the little village of Liber-
tad and it's surrounding fields
sank 1900 feet straight down into
the earth.
The town, with a population of
about 100 persons, just disap-
peared.- Where it once stood is
gaping hole half-mile in
diameter and 1900 feet deep.
Most of the top soil in the
sunken area was scrambled by the
sudden drop. but in a few places
crops continued to grow just as
they did before.
