President Heuss Opposes
West German Army Plan
BY the Associated Press

BONN, Germany, Dec. 8.-Pres-
ident Theodor Heuss declared TO-
day current speculation over a
West German army is dangerous
to Germany's future. He said he
is against a West German army
even if the Allies should want one.
In this he was at variance with
his own chancellor, Konrad
Adenauer, who recently said that
while he does not favor formation
Of an army by West Germany, he
would be willing to form one If
the Allies insist and If it were
to be part of a larger West Euro
pean army.
President Heuss. leader Of the
conservative Free Democratic
Party, said In an interview he did
not believe all the reports about
rearmament in the East German
state set up under Soviet auspices.

STOW, Mass, Dec. 8.-Frank
Carney, SO, who started out as a

up as university librarian. died
yesterday at Marlboro Hospital.
Born in County Tyrone, Ireland,
Mr.. Carney came to this country
as a small boy and began working

he would meet one of them on a
street corner and turn over his
papers in brief case, in which
they would be returned to him in
the same way the next morning.
Mr.. Wadleigh worked in the
State Department from 1886 to
1943. He later went back to the
Agriculture Department, leaving
the Government in 1946 to take
a job with UNRRA.
The papers which Mr.. Cham
bers had produced against Mr..
Hiss date from 1887 and 1888, and
the last one is dated March 81,
1888. Mr.. Wadleigh embarked on
a trip to Turkey on March IL,
1888, and therefore there are a
number of papers which clearly
could not have come from him.
Other Information Brought Out.
With regard to the others. Pros
ecutor Murphy questioned Mr..
Wadleigh at length, and elected
this information:
l. That he supplied Mr.. Cham
bers and Mr.. Carpenter only with
actual State Department docu-
ments and did not make copies of
these documents for them. Most
of the documents in this case are
typed copies or summaries of Sc
cret material.
2. That with regard to the So
called pumpkin papers," which
are microf1lns of actual State De-
partment documents, he did not
remember seeing these papers or
giving them to Mr.. Chambers or
Mr.. Carpenter, but might con-
ceivably have done so.
3. That with regard to the type
written copies and summaries. he
might have seen the original docu-
ments on which they were based
in few cases, but did not re-
member giving any of those to
Mr.. Chambers or Mr.. Carpenter.
4. That he had never seen four
handWritten notes, which have
been introduced in evidence and
which Mr.. Hiss admits are in his
handwriting, and certainly never
gave these to Mr.. Chambers or
Mr.. Carpenter.
Denies One Point Positively.
One of the secret papers. con-
tanning two important dispatches
from Rome and Berlin, drew from
Mr.. Wadleigh q positive state
ment that he could not possibly
have seen it because it was so
important that he would have re-
membered it if he had.
1T would have given me quite
a sensation to find this on my
desk" Mr.. Wadleigh said.
Mr.. Wadleigh never joined
the Communist Party, but CO.
operated with the prewar Soviet
spy machine out of conviction and
inclination.
His appearance under subpoena
in the Foley Square courthouse
came yesterday as something of a
surprise to a number of observers,
including this one.
Effort to Bluff Defense.
In his opening statement to the
jury on November 10, Mr.. Cross
announced he intended to show
that it was Mr.. Wadleigh who
gave Mr.. Chambers. an admitted
ex-C Communist agent. secret pa
pers which the Government says
came from Mr.. Hiss.
It was widely predicted that
Assistant United States Attorney
Thomas F. Murphy might block
this line of defense by simply not
calling MIR. Wadleigh.
1t now develops that the Gov
ernment's failure to subpoena Mr..
Wadleigh at the time other wit
nesses were subpoenaed was part
of q war of nerves''-an attempt
to bluff the defense into calling
him.
