FOLLOWING is the teTt OF
President Trumdn's message
explaining his ueto of the So
called anti-SubverSiUe bill:
To the House of Representatives:
I return herewith, without my
approval, H. r. 9490, the proposed
internal Security Act of 1880"
I am taking this action only after
the most serious study and reflec-
ton and after consultation with the
security and intelligence agencies
Of the Government. The Depart
ment of Justice, the Department of
Defense, the Central Intelligence
Agency, and the Department of
bill would seriously damage the
security and the intelligence oper-
ations for which they are respon-
sible.' They have strongly expressed
the hope that the bill would not be-
come law.
This II an omnibus bill contain
ing many different legislative pro-
posals with only one thing in COM
mon: They are all represented to
be anti Communist" But when the
many complicated pieces of the bill
are analyzed in detail, startling
result appears.
Would Help Communists.
H. r. 9490 would not hurt the
Communists. Instead, it would help
them.
1t has been claimed over and
over again that this is an "anti-
Communist" bill "a Communist
control" bill. But in actual opera
ton the bill would have results ex-
actly the opposite of those intended
1t would actually weaken our
existing internal security measures
and would seriously hamper the
Federal Bureau of Investigation and
our other security agencies.
1t would help the Communists in
their efforts to create dissension
and confusion within our borders.
1t would help the Communist
propagandists throughout the world
who are trying to undermine free
dom. by discrediting as hypocrisy
the efforts of the United States on
behalf of freedom
Specific Objections.
Specifically, some of the principal
objections to the bill are as fol-
lows:
l. 1t would aid potential enemies
by requiring the publication of a
complete list of vital defense plants,
laboratories, and other installations
2. 1t would require the Depart
ment of Justice and its Federal Bu-
reau of Investigation to waste i'm
mense amounts of time and energy
attempting to carry out its un-
workable registration provisions.
3. 1t would deprive us of the great
assistance of many aliens in intelli-
gence matters.
4. 1t would antagonize friendly
governments.
S. 1t would put the Government
of the United States in the thought
control business.
6. 1t would make it easier for SUBJ
versive aliens to become natural
lied as United States citizens.
| 7. 1t would give Government Off
cials vast powers to harass all OF
our citizens in the exercise of their
right of free speech.
Would Hinder, Not Help.

quences is not necessary to meet

Child Day Care Center Bill
Waits Truman SIGNATURE

The SIT billion supplemental
supply bill, including a provision
to extend the Districts day-care
centers for several months, today
awaited White House signature.
The Senate yesterday approved
a grant of $50,000 to permit ex-
tension of the child day care
center program until Deem
ber 81.
This was a compromise with
the House which had sought to
.liquidate the program October /.
The Senate had previously held
out for a full 100000 needed to
carry the program to next
June 80.
In other actions on the supply
bill, the Senate accepted a COM
promise figure of 81 million to
start a second major airport here
and granted SO million to provide
extra office space for additional
defense employees.
The bill carries $500, 900 to put
into effect the already legislated
f1ve-day work week for Washing

the work, and I will contact him.

HE would say So" answered
the prisoner. But he is dead.
All through the war he went
and now, within a few weeks of
victory-he has died" He shook
his head.
The Germans got him?" I
asked. THE Gestapo."
Dead" Agent Is Named.
Nah! Not him. Too smart,
this fellow! He died in his bed
which he would not have done if
the Gestapo ever put their hooks
on him-nor the S. S. either" he
added thoughtfully. "Nah-they
did not kill him. He died a bad
death, though - cancer in the
stomach"
It sat down. I had an eerie
feeling that I knew what was
coming.
"It should make no difference. "
said quietly, "if he is dead or
alive, will make few inquiries
and we may still be able to get
you out of here. What was this
officers name?"
The Dutchman unhitched the
button of the S. S. collar that
pinched the fat red bulges of his
neck. His name was Pinto" he
said. "Col. Oreste Pinto. He was
we'll known. A good officer"
I kept my face straight. "You
worked closely with him, them"
"Ja-close enough. I did many
risky jobs for him"
could you describe him?"
The Dutchman rumpled his chin
with a huge fist, thinking.
"Ugh-er, nondescript, he said.
''He had many DISCUSSES. But
knew him we'll enough. I could
always pick him out. We had
beer together, more than once.
He trusted me with many secrets.
He thought much of my work"
Dutchman Meets "Ghost."
The prisoner was silent, gazing
into the rosy past of his imagi-
nation, where he and Col. Pinto
had withstood war and storm to-
gether like good comrades, for
the glory of Holland.
I rose. 1--WE must deal with
your case at once" I said.
Your services to your country
must be properly rewarded"
The prisoner nodded. "Ja-
that would be only justice"
At the cell door, I said:
There's just one thing-while
you are alone here with time to
think, will you jot down for me
all those details about the S. S.
that it might be useful for me
to know? You will know, as an
espionage man, what would be
useful"
He nodded eagerly. "Will you
come back for it, sir?"
II don't think So" said
"Just give it to the warden =

Danger to INSTITUTIONS.

Unfortunately, these provisions
are not merely ineffective and un-
workable. They represent a clear
and present danger to our institu-
tionS.
In so far as the bill would require
registration by the Communist
Party itself, 1t does not endanger
our traditional liberties. However,

Section 81 of this bill makes it a
crime to attempt to influence a
Judge or jury by public demonstra-
tion, such as picketing. While the
courts already have, considerable
power to punish such actions unde,
existing law, I have no objection
to this section.

Exemptions Already Denied.
1t Is claimed that this bill woulc

is that the Bureau of Interna

exemptions to such organizations.
1t is claimed that this bill woulc

fact is that the Government car
and does deny passports to Com.
munists under existing law.
It is claimed that this bill woulc
prohibit the employment of Com.

ment of Communists by the Fedora
Government is already prohibited
and, at least in the executive
branch, there is an effective pro.
gram to see that they are not EN-.
ployed.
1t is claimed that this bill woulc
prohibit the employment of Com.

is that it would be years before this
bill would have any effect of this
nature-if it ever would. Fortunate
ly, this objective is already being
substantially achieved under the
present procedures of the Depart.
ment of Defense, and if the Con.
gress would enact one of the pro.

The Reds have 10000 troops
massed along the 120-mile front
and possibly another 10000 in

bombarded Reds who attempted
to land yesterday in Pullman Bay
northwest of Tongyong.
On the northeastern front, Cor
respondent Price said the two
pronged Red Korean thrust south
of Kigye put the Reds in a posi-
ton to whirl westward against
Taegu and eastward to cut off
Pohang port.
Mr.. Price said the Reds were
bombarding the vital Pohang-
Kyongju road with mortar and
point blank fire. The latter pre-
sumably was from tanks.
The Red drive was made in a
sector where Americans have
thrown the new 4712-ton Patton
tanks with -millimeter guns
into the battle. The United States
Oath Division, first in Korea, has

Tending this sector.
Field reports to United States
9th Army headquarters in Korea
said tank-supported American
troops this afternoon drove back
to Angang, highway town miles
southwest of Pohang.
Tanks Battle Around Town.
Confused hting swirled
through the area. Fragmentary
reports said a tank battle ragged
around the town. The Americans
lost three tanks during the fight.
An 9th Army spokesman said
Angang tonight was a no-man's
land. He said the town was less
important than the road junction
to the west, on the Pohang-Taegu
artery. United Nations forces
still hold the road hub, he said.
There were no later reports on
the Red units that knitted deep
inside the Allied lines toward
Kyongju. American staff officers
said the Red spearhead was in
force of at least two battalions-
about 1900 men.
The battle roared on in mud
and slime left by torrential rains
which partially halted most ac-
ton last night. Rain, wind and
lightning on the fringe of sum-
mer typhoon whipped the battle
front. But the weather had
cleared enough today SO that Al
lied aircraft roared back in close
support of ground forces.
Jets Strafe Tanks.
F-80 Shooting Star jets strafed
and rocketed Red Korean tanks
and artillery along the northern
front. B-26 light bombers and
F-82 twin Mustang night fighters
took over at dusk.
Bomber crews fired more than
81 900 rounds of machine-gun bull
lets in straf1ng attacks and
dropped more than $50 bombs in

Beating The Gun

DdlZo.
I'd personally like to see artists
like Mosconi, Irving Crane or Jim
my Caras try a stunt that Evans
performed. 1t consists of trying to
pocket Is balls without permitting
the cue ball to touch a cushion.
Twice he has performed this vir-
tually impossible feat.
In 1885, the late cartoonist-re-
searcher Bob Ripley sketched a
picture of Evans performing this
stunt syndicating it thruout Am
erica and many foreign countries.
| Mr.. Evans did the act once more
at the West 135th St. Branch Of
the YMCA., when I was Boxing
teacher there.
Folks tell me that the other
evening Evans clicked off four
frames ga balls) before missing
on the big table. l, myself saw him
pocket three frames, proving con-
clusively that he still retains a lot
of his former artistry.
I've never asked Evans if he
entertains ideas about a serious
comeback. | do know that until
Franklin Galloway requested him
to practice one day, he had for.
sworn the game.
What a pool instructor Evans
would make. Intelligent, wise, and
a domonstrator par excellence, I'd
like to see him coach any of the
kids who after proper tutoring
would justify our campaigning fol
