NAVAL BASE, KEY WEST
Fla, Mar. president Truman
today got his first real break from
White House routine since the
busy January days when he pre-
pared for the convening of the
81st Congress.
There was nothing formal
scheduled at the little White
House on the secluded key be-
tween the Atlantic Ocean and the
Gulf of Mexico where the Presi-
dent was taking it easy. but he
still had a certain amount of pa
pers to go over and he was never
more than a couple of feet away
from the phone that keeps him in
constant touch with the White
House.
That wire, incidentally. will get
a good workout in the two weeks
the President plans to stay here
as he maintains contact with ad-
ministration leaders in Senate
and House whose task it is to
drive his program through.
Tomorrow. the presidential holi-
day will be interrupted as he flies
to Winter Park to take part in
a long-deferred ceremony at Rol-
Inns College where he accepts an
honorary degree of LID. and
makes a brief "off the cuff" talk
in which he is expected to en-
phasize the obligations that citi-
zenship imposes on the youngsters
who are coming of age.
Mr.. Truman arrived here early
yesterday afternoon. after a fight
of about four hours from Wash
.ington. d, AS usual, Key, West
turned out en- masse - which
means men. women and children
to welcome Florida's favorite
cjtjzen

Senate Unit Approves
Bill for Safeguards on
Encoded Security Data

A bill to provide new safeguards
for encoded security information
was approved today by a Senate
Armed Services subcommittee
after Undersecretary of the Navy
w. John Kenney had suggested
amendments to protect legitimate
neWsgathering efforts from PEN
atty.
The measure would punish will
full disclosures of the Nations
cryptographic techniques, or Of
information obtained by such sys-
TENS.
The amendments offered by Mr..
Kenney were accepted by the sub
committee. They, would require,
as a basis for prosecution, that
the person making the disclosure
knew the information was CLASH

aware it had come from a COM

breaking, activity.
wartime rear.
AS an example of the need for
Legislation, Mr.. Kenney said in
telligence officials we're in constant
fear of long period during World
War II that some one would pub
lish an article reporting the United
States success in breaking Japa-
nese codes.
He told the subcommittee the
only existing protection for en-
coded material or cryptographic
methods is provided by 1917
Espionage Act. which requires
proof of intent to injure the
United States, and a 1888 law
establishing penalties for willful
publication of material transmit
ted in diplomatic code. if the
person doing so had access to it
through Government employment.
There has been no means, he
said, to penalize people who, for
reasons of personal prestige.
vanity, misguided motives or. a
desire to profit pecuniarily, dis
close vital information. perhaps
without any intent to lnjure the
United States"
No Opposition at Hearing.
His suggested amendments. he
continued. were designed to pro-
tect the reporter who might OBJ
tain a story arising from cryptic
graphic operations lust because
somebody at a party talked too
much"
Mr.. Kenney placed in the rec
ord editorials from The Star and
the Washington Post indorsing the
Legislation in principle
There was no opposition at to-
days subcommittee hearing. 1t
was announced that executives Of
the American Society OF News
paper Editors had Informed the
subcommittee they saw no objec-
ton to the measure as amended,
although the society's Board of
Directors had not taken action on
the bill
The legislation, advocated by
the three armed services, the State
Department and the Central In
telligence Agency. is similar to bills
which failed of passage IN the last
two CONGRESSES.

Quick Approval Asked
Without Questions on
5uper-Secret Agency

The House was to be asked
today to give quick approval
without asking embarrassing ques-
tions-to a bill providing statu-
tory status for the super-secret
Central Intelligence Agency.
The measure will be considered
under a rule limiting debate to
one hour with amendments from
the floor barred.
Chairman Vinson of the Armed
Services Committee said the House
would not be offered any informa-
ton other than the bill itself.
Because the legislation deals
with spying on behalf of the
United States. administration
leaders were hoping the House
would not manifest its curiosity.
They'll just have to trust us"
Mr.. Vinson commented.
Would Admit 100 Aliens.
In general the bill merely sets
up the CIA as a permanent agen-
cy and authorizes the extraordi-
nary accounting and personnel
policies which it has been follow
ing in its present executive-order
status.
The provision which has at
tracted special interest, however,
is the one to permit entrance to
the United States annually Of 100
persons of the highest intelli-
gence potential" without regard
to immigration quotas.
Grants Asylum in U. S.
Committee members. loath to
talk about this, have said only the
provision would enable the intelli-
gence organization to give asylum
in the United States to persons
who have given information of
great value to American opera
tives.
Presumably. these persons large
ly would have fled the Iron Cur
tain nations with important dat.
After disposing of the CIA
measure, the House will take up
bills to authorize a $161 100000
early warning radar network
around the United States, au-
thorize a 3,000-mile- long guided
missile proving range, ultimately
to cost 5000 100000. and create
post of Undersecretary of National
Defense.

Bomb Kills One, Hurts
40 at Talk by Nehru
By the A,soeiotsd Press

CALCUTTA, India. July 15.-
A bomb explosion during an ad-
dress by Prime Minister Java
haral Nehru, in which he de-
nounced Communism, killed a
policeman and injured more than
40 persons yesterday.
When Nehru condemned Com
munist terrorist activities in Cal
cutta, Communists attacked other
listeners in the audience estimated
to number 100000 persons. A
man identified by police as Com
munist fired a revolver three times
at a police officer, but missed.
Extensive precautions had been
taken beforehand. Nearly 1000
police were on duty. Nehru asked
them not to interfere but let the
people quiet the hecklers.
After the address, disturbances
were resumed in various parts of
the city. Nehru had told his
audience he could not understand
how a handful Of people could
terrorize Calcutta's 100000 in
habitants. He characterized In
dian Communists as the greatest
enemy of their own movement.
Meanwhile, at Monghyr. in
Bihar Province, Socialist Leader
J. P. Narain charged Nehru with
being a tyrant and pushing the
country steadily toward Commu-
nism. He said the first symptoms
of anarchy were appearing in CAL
cutta and some districts of South
ern India.
