equally pleases. ECkstine's pair

Fly Pushes Petition
To Probe Investigatiye
TecImiques Of FBI

A petition calling for a con-
gressional investigation of FB1
wiretapping and other 'lawless
conduct" is being prepared by
James L. Fly, former chairman of
the Federal Communications
Commission.
Mr.. Fly, reached by telephone
in New York; said he Is doing
everything he can "about the law
less conduct of the FBI." He
continued: II am trying to bring
about a recognition OF the Bill
of Rights. of the laws against
wiretapping, mail rif1ing, perjury
and the destruction of public
property"
Mr.. Fly said he sent a craft of
the proposed petition to Charles
A. Horsky, Washington attorney
and former member of the So]:ci-
tor Generals staff in the Justice
Department, asking him to circu-
late it.
dOrSky FOrWar0S II.
Mr.. Horsky said he sent the
draft to a dozen persons he hoped
eventually would sign it, asking
for comments and suggestions.
He said he had heard from almost
all of them and had received a
number of suggestions.
He said the persons to whom
he sent it are those with names
which will mean something to
Congress. He, himself, was not
asked to sign, Mr.. Horsky said,
adding, I'm not the kind of per-
son they're after.
Both Mr.. Fly and Mr.. Horsky
said the petition has nothing to
do with the Alger Hiss case. Mr..
Horsky pointed out that wire tap
ping did not figure in that case,
but called attention to the dis
closures of wire tapping in the
trial of Judith Coplon and Valen-
tin Gubitchev now in progress
in New York. ~
To Garry Fight Through.
Mr.. Fly said:
"I drafted the document myself.
and I'll take the responsibility and
claim the credit for it. I am try
ing to prevent the FBI from aping
the dictators. I am trying to save
the Bill of Rights and to bring
about decent and orderly admin
istration of justice.
This is fight have under
taken and will carry through.
Every citizen ought to do what
he can about such an ominous
situation. Congress ought to act.
At no time in the history of the
country has Congress sat so inert
at such convincing proof of unlaw-
full conduct.
I'm beginning to wonder if it
is getting too big for Congress.

News of Bergman Baby
Comes as Blow to HOLLYWOOD

HOLLYWOOD, Feb. 8 (P.-In
town not easily shocked, the
news of Ingrid Bergman's baby
stunned the film colony today.
The word quickly spread around
the studio lots and other hangouts
of the stars. Many Hollywoodites
had tended to discount reports of
her pregnancy when it first was
rumored some months ago. OFF,
cial statements by Miss Bergman
and Roberto RoSsellini that they
were ignoring" the rumors ac-
cented a widespread disbelief.
But, a top studio executive ad-
mitted today that the industry is
stunned"
This isn't the sort of thing we
prefer to let our stars make pub
lie statements about" the exeeu-
tive said. But I can tell you it
hit Hollywood with the greatest
impact I've ever witnessed. That's
all anybody is talking about"
Lindstrom Is Silent.
There was no comment from
DR.. Peter Lindstrom, the actress
husband. and none expected. He
had last seen his wife last May
when he visited her and Rossellini
in Italy after the news of her ro-
nance with the Italian movie
maker electrified the world.
He emerged from that confer
ence with statement that there
would be no divorce-no need OF
one.
Three months later Ingrid an
nounced she was going to divorce
him. She filed suit last week in
Juarez, Mexico. And attorneys fol-
DR.. Lindstrom say he will file suit
against her in California.
When Rossellini came here a
year ago, he was a guest at the
Lindstrom home for his entire
SIX weeks stay.
Miss Bergman, who had ad-
mired Rossellini's artistic success
es> in s'The Open City" and "Pai-
San." had written him fan letter
that said she would like to play In
one of his films "any time yot
