Due Next Week
HickenIooper Wants
Testimony by Clark
And J. Edgar Hoover
By Cecil Holland

OOIII4 =. OtIVICS, SCdL6 OeparC-
ment career officer, probably will
be called as a witness early next
week by the Senate Foreign Re-
lations subcommittee investigating
the 1945 Amerasia magazine case.
This was indicated today by
Edward P. Morgan, chief counsel
of the committee, as the Senate
group continued its inquiry into
the case as part of an investiga-
tion of charges of communism in
the State Department.
Mr.. Service was one of six per-
sons arrested in the case. After
the grand jury refused to indict
him and two others, he was re-
stored to duty in the department.
His name was brought into the
current inquiry by Senator Nc
Carthy. Republican. of Wiscon-
sin, who accused him of being one
of "pro-Communist" group
within the State Department. Mr..
Service has denied the accuSa-
tions.
Loyalty Check Nearly Ready.
He was en- route to a post in
India when the charges were
made. The State Department re-
called him for a new review of
his loyalty record and to give him
an opportunity to make a formal
reply to the Mccarthy charges be-
ing investigated by the Senate
subcommittee.
The State Department. loyalty
board, it is understood, will COM
plete it's check of Mr.. Services
record within a day or two.
Mr.. Morgan said no decision has
been reached on whether Mr..
Service will testify before Senate
investigators at an open or closed
hearing.
There were these other develop
ments bearing on the groups
investigation of the Mccarthy
charges:
l. Senator Hickenlooper, Repub-
lican, of Iowa, member of the
investigating committee, suggested
that Supreme Court Justice Clark
and FBI Director j. Edgar Hoover
be invited to testify in the Amer
asia inquiry.
Hickenlooper Has Witnesses.
2. The Iowa Senator also said
he would suggest the names of
five or six other persons as pos
Sible witnesses in the investiga-
ton. He did not disclose the
names of the prospective witnesses
he had in mind.
8. Democratic leaders made it
clear that a resolution introduced
yesterday by 81 Republican Sena-
tors seeking an investigation by
the Senate Judiciary Committee
of how the Justice Department
handled the Amerasia case would
make little headway.
4. The Senate Foreign Rela-
tions Subcommittee received yes
terday afternoon an excerpt from
the diary of the late James v.
Forrestal. Secretary of the Navy
at the time the Amerasia case
broke, showing he intervened in
the matter to be certain that
President Truman was fully in
formed of the facts and their i'm
plications before any arrests were
made. The quotation from the
diary, first disclosed by The Star
Saturday, showed that Mr.. For
restal asked Mr.. Hoover to have
Mr.. Clark, then an Assistant At
torney General, see that the
President knew about the matter.
Meanwhile. Mr.. Morgan was
studying the testimony of Philip
Jaffe, key figure in the Amerasia
case, to determine whether to
recommend contempt citations for
refusing to answer questions
when called before the investi-
eating committee Monday.
Jaffe was editor of the obscure

greSs next January adopts a Joint
resolution approving this.
In an earlier bill it had been
proposed that the extension for
the extra five months be left to
the discretion of the District
Commissioners. But since they
are appointive administrative off,
cials, the committee today made
the revision to leave the extra Pc
riod of control to the decision Of
Congress itself since it is the leg
islative body for the Capital.
A majority of the District COM
mittee membership was registered
against continued rent controls
when the House acted on extern
sion of the Federal law yesterday.
Close Vote Anticipated.
1t had been anticipated there
fore that the vote by the COM
mittee today on continuing Wash.
ington rent controls would be
close. A number of rent-control
opponents, however, voted today
to send the bill to the House for
action there since both the House
and Senate now have passed bills
for extending the Federal system.
Today's committee session was
behind closed doors and Chair
man Mcmillan did not announce
how members voted. Some mem
oers said the vote to report the
bill was IL to 6.
The exact language is yet to be
worked out. Committee Clerk
William N. Mcleod said it would
conform as nearly as possible to
the language of the House Federal
bill.
That bill orders rent controls
extended for seven months and
leaves an additional five months
to depend upon affirmative action
taken by governmental bodies in
the states.

rents. as to production of records
as proof Of cost and other factors
in the years from 1941 to l945.
They would be permitted to offer
the best available evidence If rec
ords are unavailable.
Chairman Mcmillan said he
would seek to get House action on
the bill at tomorrow's session, but
the House tomorrow will consider
business only by unanimous con-
sent and there was some thought
this might not be obtained because
OF the continuing controversy over
rent controls.
The House is to recess after to-
morrow until Monday.
Mr.. Mcmillan said II he fails to
get House action tomorrow he
probably would wait until a week
from Monday. which would be the
next regular District day.
The Senate District Committee
is scheduled to meet next Tues
day afternoon at the call of Chair
man Nicely. 1t was expected ex.
tension of District rent controls
would be considered at that time.
Chairman Nicely has planned to
let the House act first in the hopes
this would expedite enactment.
Representative Abernethy, Dem.
ocrat. of Mississippi. one Of the
District committeeman who op-
posed continuation of Federal
rent controls, was one Of the op-
ponents who voted to send the
District bill to the House, reserv-
ing his right to oppose 1t there.
He said he thought this was the
only fair thing to do" since the
House passed the Federal bill.
Several other opponents took SIM
liar stands.

cused the employers of refusing

The union completely ignored
six questions telegraphed yesterday
by Frank S. Sheehan, labor rela-
tions expert for the Safeway

Asked to Clarity Differences.
Mr.. Sheehan asked the union to
clarity what differences exist be-
tween the union and the three
dairies it claims are struck, that
do not exist between the union
and the other six dairies.
If no differences exist, Mr.
Sheehan asked, why does the un-
ion wish to work at six plants
while striking the other three?
Mr.. Sheehan also wanted an
answer as to what working con-
ditions are now desired by the
union now that you have ter
minated the contract and whether
it intended to continue to nego-
tiate on an industry-wide basis.
Result of the union rebuff was
expected to further postpone
