McGrath retorted.
Principle Is Involved.
The two officials emphasized
that a principle was involved and
they were strongly opposed to
turning over even FBI summaries
to the committee. Mr.. Hoover
said: IF we yield in one case
we open the foodgates."
Senator Lodge, Republican, OF
Massachusetts,, brought out that
some raw material in FBI files
became public in the Judith Cop
Ion espionage case. Mr.. Hoover
said emphatically that it was
made public over his protests and
at the direction of Associate JUS
tice Clark, then Attorney General.
Senator McCarthy's announce
ment that he would speak on the
Senate floor on his charges
was made in a memorandum sent
to Senator Hickenlooper and read
while Mr.. Hoover and Mr.. Nc
Grath were testifying.

Mr.. Truman would grant the in
vestigators limited access to the
files. ~ nj
The President was reported as
basing his refusal on the same
grounds that Mr.. McGrath and
Mr.. Hoover stressed before the
committee. ~ t4y .l ...:.
MIR. Hoover predicated, his OBJ
jections to- opening the files on
two principal grounds-the dam
age to national security in re-
vealing FBI confidential pro-
cedures and techniques, and the
possibility that disclosures might
smear" innocent persons.
IF spread on the record" Mr.
Hoover declared, criminals, for
eign agents, subversives and 9TH
ers would be forewarned and
would seek methods to carry out
their activities by avoiding detec-
ton and thus defeat the very pur-
poses for which the FBI was Gre
ated.
Would Reveal Informants,
"a disclosure of FBI reports
would reveal the identity of con-
f1dential sources of information
and, if it did not place the lives
OF such persons in actual danger
it would certainly ruin their fu-
ture value and effectiveness"
AS for the other danger, Mr.
Hoover emphasized there were
compelling reasons" why "the
files of the FBI should remain
inviolate." He said FBI could be
compared to a newspaper report
er's notes before he has culled
from them what is printable and
what is not printable.
The FBI files, he explained. dc
not consist of proven information
alone and must always be viewed
as whole. II. for one" he added
would want no part of an investi-
gative organization which had the
power of discretion to decide what
information should be reported
and what would be omitted" An
item unimportant at one time may
assume significance at another
time, the FBI chief pointed out.
Mr.. Hoover explained that FB1
reports set forth all details OBJ
Jained from a witness, and added
eff those details were disclosed
they could become subject to mis-
Interpretation, they could be
quoted out of context, or they
could be used to thwart truth, dis
tort half truths and misrepresent
facts"

committee of Congress and de-
clared that loyalty and investi-
gative files Should be preserved
in strict confidence. Most 10y
atty files, it was pointed out, con-
tain confidential FBI data since
that agency is charged with the
responsibility of conducting such
Investigations.
1t was during the questioning
that followed the formal state
ments of the two officials that
Mr.. Hoover gave what some con-
sidered to be a hint that there
was nothing in the files to sup
port Senator McCarthy's charges
against Mr.. baltimore, now in
Afghanistan on a United Nations
mission.
In reply to question by Chair
man Tydings, Mr.. Hoover said
that when the FBI completes a
case against any one it is sent
to the Justice Department for
prosecution if there is any evil
dence that crime has been COM
mitted.
baltimore Not Mentioned.
Mr.. Hoover said this was done
in about SO per cent of such cases
Sometimes, he added, cases are
held back from immediate prose-
cutlon in order to detect and in
criminate other persons involved
in the crime.
Mr.. Lattimore's name was not
mentioned at all in Mr.. Hoover's
testimony, but the inference was
drawn by some that if there had
been any evidence to support the
Mccarthy charges the FBI would
have acted. The committee has
seen an FBI summary of it's files
in the baltimore case and several
Democrats have indicated there
was nothing at all to support the
charges.
| Senator Hickenlooper, Republic
can, OF Iowa, member of the
investigating committee, made II
clear he was not satisfied with
the reasons given by Mr.. Nc
Grath and Mr.. Hoover for 10,
opening the files. "'-'-
He brought out that despite
precedents against such moves
the files had been opened for con-
gressional committees from time
to time.
Hickenlooper Points Out Cases.
1t was brought out that FBI
summaries of their reports GUS
comarily are made available to
the Senate Judiciary Committee
studying appointments to the Fed
eral judiciary. Under the law
creating the Atomic Energy Com
mission, the Senate House Atomic
Committee has access to con-
fidential data on Acc employees.
And, it was developed by >Sena-
tor Hickenlooper, the Senate Ex-
penditures subcommittee headed
by Senator Ferguson, Republican,
Of Michigan, received confidential
files in its investigation of the
Kansas City vote fraud charges
a few years ago.
Senator Hickenlooper wanted to
know if Mr.. McGrath considered
turning over the files to the COM
mittee was a hazard when other
committees had been given access
to FBI records.

Strike Threat Arises
As High Court Refuses
Ruling on Hiring Halls

Legislators as well as Govern
ment labor experts today weighed
chances of warding off a possible
maritime strike as result of
the Supreme Courts second re-
fusal to rule on a ban on hiring
halls.
Bills aimed at assuring legality
of the hiring hall system have
been pending in Congress for
some time and now may be pushed
more vigorously.
But as things stand, the hiring
hall for Great Lakes seamen is
illegal under a decision by the
United States Court of Appeals in
New York. Supreme Court un-
willingness yesterday to review
the matter leaves the lower court
decision in effect.
A hiring hall is an arrangement
providing central place for ship
owners to obtain crews. Lower
courts, in the Greak Lakes case,
held that the hiring hall system
might discriminate against nom
union Seamen and thus violate the
closed shop provision of the Taft
Hartley Act.
Union Request Rejected.
The Supreme Court, last Febru-
ary 13. announced it would not
consider, the appeal. The union
asked for reconsideration, but the
tribunal yesterday rejected the
request.
After the February action,
maritime union leaders declared
that, if the decision prevailed,
there probably would be strike
of 100000 maritime workers to
preserve the hiring hall.
Other Court Rulings.
In other rulings yesterday the
Supreme Court:
l. Refused to intervene in the
convictions of seven white per-
sons on charges of conspiracy to
disturb the peace and cause riot
by attempting to stage an inter-
racial tennis tournament in a Bal
timore public park in July, 1948.
The seven, including some mem
bers of the Young Progressives
of Maryland, received suspended
sentences, ranging from three to
l8 months. The Maryland court
OF Appeals upheld the conviction.
2. Agreed to review West Vir-
ginia court decision, which dis
missed custer proceedings against
two Webster County Board of
Education members. The mem
bers, w. L. Court and Raleigh
Gregory, were charged by IL Web
ster County citizens with proiting
from purchases by the school
board.
3. Sent back to lower court
for further study an oil company's
claim against the Government for
wartime losses in the Philippines.
Ihe 80 opinion, written by JUS
t1ce Minton, reversed a Court of
Claims decision that the Socony-
Vacuum Oil Co. could not sue the
Government for $263,132 to cover
losses to oil stocks and equipment
taken by armed forces for mill
tary purposes in December, 1941.
The Court of Claims rejected
the case on the ground the COM
pany did not file its claim within
SIX years. The Supreme Court
held, however, that the Court of
Claims considered facts which
were hot in the pleadings.

LET'S DEMAND BETTER POLITICS
ANY DAY NOW the fireworks characteristic Of the cam
paign will begin to fly in all directions. Ever since 1888 a SUBJ
tie, vicious system has crept into local politics which work I'M
due hardship on the public and in consequence many vote
is misdirected. Issues are rarely important, candidates rarely if
ever concern themselves with real problems, and as is always
the case, the entire matter bois down to one grand, hilarious
and highly enjoyable circus performance to some, while deep
hurt is inflicted upon others. Na
AWAY OPTIMISTIC we look forward hopefully to an
awakening of a new and brighter day-a day when political
maturity will start coming into its own. 1t is time, and the
sooner the better. Under local conditions it should be posi-.
BILE to conduct a campaign which will do credit to the leader
ship and the electorate alike. The place is small. Everybody
knows everybody else, and the issues, while sometimes. not
simple, should be clear enough to cause candidates to clash
head-on as to these. This is what the candidates should work
for, and furthermore, this is exactly what leaders owe the
people.
THE / is also here when the public should stop al
lowing this grand circus play and demand something serious
and sincere. There comes time when enough is enough, and
an effort to continue playing on the lighter side of life can be
as disgusting as it is monotonous And the public has every
right to demand that the men who represent them face the
serious problems of island life seriously. With conditions as
they are leaders should assume the responsibility Of facing the
issues squarely and doing something about them, and no time
is better to begin doing this sort of campaigning than the
present.
WITH SOME % candida ties seeking nine seats it is ma
tural that the fight will be stiff one, since each candidate,
anxious to retain his seat or get one for the first time will be
doing all within his power to win. However, this should mean
a good, stiff fight. Yet that does not justify some Of the meth
DDS which have been engaged in during past years. Leaders,
political and otherwise have an excellent opportunity to raise
standards, and the public should demand that candidates
come straight from the shoulder, and clean.

their work, and the fact that
their trail blazing has influenced
all activities which followed
them. But, you cannot make me
think that the greatest pianists
could play on the four-legged,
six octave instruments as the
performers of today play on the
stream-ined three-legged crea-
tions. Nor can you make me be-
lieve that the human voices of
the past excelled those of today.
1t is not in keeping with the
Creators program. Truly, there
were outstanding trail blazers in
all walks Of life. But the man
OF today is, and should be, SUI
perior to the man of yesterday.
We have, now, individuals who
stand out among us, and seem
to be living before their time,
and so it will ever be. Look
about you, apply true analysis of
conditions, past and present. The
Universe is not created; it is in
process of creation. Hence, the
law of evolution is immutable.

ing a perfect Universe.
