Ex-FederaI Official,
Accused Of Loyalty 10
Reds, Defends Record
BY the Associaied Press

Max Lowenthal, New York at
torney and former Government
official accused in Congress of 10y
atty to Russia. says he has served
the United States Government
with honor.
Mr.. Lowenthal was questioned
in private by the House Commit
tee on Un-American Activities on
September Is after he was at
tackled in the House by Repre-
sentative Dondero, Republican, of
Michigan. The testimony was
made public last night.
MIR. Dondero told the House that
evidence of MIR. Lowenthal's 'un-
swerving loyalty to Soviet Russia
Is clear and unequivocal."
No Direct Questions.
Mr.. Lowenthal was not asked to
answer this directly. However, in
the course of questioning about his
employment during the war with
the Board of Economic Warfare,
the witness said that his record
"had already been passed upon by
some of the leading men in the
United States Senate, and by men
who had been present, both on
the Democratic and Republican
side"
Mr.. Dondero said Mr.. Lowen-
thals record was "one of attack
on any American institution which
stands four square for the Ameri-
can way of life" He charged the
attorney had worked "relentlessly"
to destroy the effectiveness of the
FBI in its campaign against Com
muniStS.
The Congressman said that Mr..
Lowenthal pulled strings to become
adviser on disposal of Jewish prop
erty under the American military
government in Germany, and had
as an assistant, George Shaw
Wheeler. "the American traitor
(who) denounced the land of his
birth and asked Communist-con-
trolled Czechoslovakia for asylum" ~
Denies Having Aide.
Mr.. Lowenthal testified he had
no assistant, and said he saw
Mr.. Wheeler in Germany only |
once in a public dining hall.
The attorney described his du-
ties in Germany as an adviser on
restitution of stolen property.
Mr.. Lowenthal said Mr.. Wheeler
worked under him briefly at the
Board of Economic Warfare In
1941, transferring from another
Government agency. But he de-
MED he had anything to do with
getting him into the Government.
