New Sesqui Fair Site

Ruling by McGrath
Leasing Of Private Lond
Is Fovored Rother Thun
New Appeal to Congress

The next move in the SeSqui-
centennial Commission efforts to
insure that a Freedom Fair will be
held as a part of the city's birth
day celebration will be a quest for
a new 200-acre level site.
Attorney General McGrath
ruled yesterday that the commits
sion plan to set up a non-profit
corporation to bring the fair into
existence is of doubtful legality" :"
The commission will turn next
to a plan for fair to be located
in a place where. private exhibitors
can erect their own buildings
without Government expense.
They would need larger site than
the Anacostia Park location, which
had been under consideration
under the original plans.
Meeting Monday.
The whole Sesqui program will
be reviewed at meeting at 3 pm.
Monday at the District Building.
Attorney Joseph c. McGarraghy.
who is chairman of the commits
sior's Executive Committee, said
cIlairmen of the various commit
tees that have been appointed will
attend.
Although Attorney General Nc
Grath suggested. In his opinion
made public at thea White House
yesterday, that Congress might be
asked to amend the commission S
legislation to permit setting up a
corporation. there seems little
chance that this could be done
speedily. The plan to have the
exhibitors put up their own struc-
lures seems to be the alternative
now, officials said.
Chairman Mcmillan of the
House District Committee, a COM
mission member, said he thought
any new legislation would have no
chance in the near future. He
pointed out the House will be oc-
cup;ed with the big omnibus ap-
bill probably all of
next week. Even the regular Dis
trict day--next Monday-will be
with, because Of the big
supply bill, he said.
Quick Action Doubtful.
Chairman Neely of the Senate
District Committee. also a COM
member. doubted any
early chance for enactment Of new
Sesqui legislation. The Senate
calendar, he said. faces an ex-
tended battle over the Fair EN-
ployment Practices Commission
proposal. But the Senator said

Contemplation
Asked on Field
And Browder
Senute Probers Plan
To Begin Examining
Loyalty Files Monday
By Cecil HoIIond

Senate investigators of charges
of communism in the State De-
partment today received recon-
mendation from their chief
counsel, Edward P. Morgan, for
contempt citations against Earl
Browder and Frederick Vanderbilt
Field.
Mr.. Morgan said he was sub
mitting the recommendation to
the Senate Foreign Relations
Subcommittee, headed by Sena-
tor Tydings, Democrat, of Mary
land. The subcommittee is ex-
pected to pass the recommendation
on to the full committee imme-
diately.
He added he expected the mat
ter would be considered at a
closed committee meeting Mon
day.
Browder, former Communist
leader. and Field, wealthy young
New Yorker, refused to answer
many questions when they were
testifying in the investigation last
week.
Called in baltimore Case.
They were called as the COM
mittee looked into the Owen Lat
timore case as part of its investi-
CATION of charges by Senator Nc
Carthy, Republican, of Wiscon-
sin that the State Department has
been harboring Communists, fell
low travellers and security risks.
Senator Mccarthy has accused
Mr.. baltimore, a Johns Hopkins
University professor. of being a
Communist and Soviet agent who
has influenced American policy
in the Far East. Mr.. baltimore
has denounced the charges as
lies"
Browder and Field were called
as witnesses after Louis F. Bud
enz, a former Communist, testi-
fed they had told him Mr.. Latti-
more was a member of a Com
munist "cell."
Both Browder and Field denied
that but they refused to answer
many questions and Field fatty
refused to say whether he him
self was a Communist.
Urges Contempt Citations.
During the hearing Mr.. Morgan
urged the committee to consider
contempt citations against them
since they had refused to answer
questions coming within the scope
of a Senate inquiry.
Senator Tydings later directed
Mr.. Morgan and the committee
staff to prepare the citations and
submit them with recommended
tions for consideration of the
committee.
In his announcement today Mr..
Morgan said:
II am still recommending that
they be cited for contempt"
He said Harold Cramer of New
York, representing Field, had
submitted long letter citing rea-
sons and precedents why he con-
sidered that Field was not in con-
tempt. Mr.. Morgan said this
letter would be submitted to the
committee.
Will Plan to Examine Files.
Conviction for contempt of a
Senate committee carries a pen
atty Of $1,000 fine or a year in
prison or both on each count.
At the meeting Monday the
committee is expected to make
plans for examining State De-
partment loyalty files covering 81
persons accused by Senator Nc
Carthy of being Communists, fell
low travellers or security risks.
After first denying the Senate
Foreign Relations Subcommittee
access to any executive files, Presi-
dent Truman changed his mind
and said those in the 81 cases
outlined by Senator Mccarthy in
. February 20 Senate speech could
be seen.

The administrations big for

of a quarter of billion dollars
but otherwise fairly intact.
There were prospects, however
that the 1922, ,45o. 900 figure ap-

trouble when Congress gets
around to supplying the money
for the aid programs.
The measure that emerged
from the Senate in an extra-hours
session merely authorizes the pro-
grams and fixes a top limit to be
spent on them during the 1851
fiscal year that begins July l. The
actual money must be provided
separately in an appropriations
bill.
The House previously had voted
$40 million less for foreign aid
with the extra cut made in the
point-four program. That anc

to be ironed out by a Senate.

While any Senator who votec
with the administration coulc
claim partial credit for the mar

consent to Senator Taylor, Demo-
crat, of Idaho.
Marshall Plan Critic.
Senator Taylor, who was vice
presidential candidate on Henry
Wallace's Progressive Party ticket
IN l948, had been one of the SEN
ate's most vigorous critics of the
Marshall Plan and other aid pro-
grams. He had argued in the past
that such projects should be ad-
