To Await Return Of
Congress for Funds

The Subversive Activities Con-
troll Board will organize Wednes-
day but await the return of Con-
gress before asking for money to
administer the law requiring
Communist registration, Chairman
Seth w. Richardson said today.
The head of the f1ve-member
board appointed last Monday by
President Truman indicated the
board is not worried by its lack of
funds at this time.
Other officials explained that
if the board needs money before
Congress reconveneS next month
it could follow the example of
Attorney General McGrath. He
recently asked the Budget Bureau
for an emergency 100000 outlay
for Justice Department expenses
under the new law. y.
The Internal Security Act au-
thorized such appropriations as
may be necessary to carry out
functions of the board, but it pro-
vided no specific sums. It set at
$12,500 year the salary of each
board member and empowered the
board to appoint and fix the pay
of a chief clerk, examiners and
other personnel it deems neces-
sary.
Machinery to Be Set Up.
The board members, subject to
confirmation when the Senate
meets again. expect to find tenn

Richardson said.
District Court was asked yes
terday to rule that the entire law,
especially the registration require
ments applying to Communist
action and front groups and Com
munist action organization mem
bers, is unconstitutional.
The suit filed in behalf of 1856
individuals was the same petition
that had been submitted last
Monday. The court refused to
accept it because street addresses
of the plaintiffs were not included.
While seeking to enjoin enforce
ment of the law. the petition did
not ask for an immediate restrain
ing order. 1t urged a prompt
preliminary hearing in the hope
of getting temporary injunc-
ton against enforcement proce-
dures. 1t also asked that three
judge court review the constitu-
tional questions.

case after careful investigation
and legal study. CAROLS office
is one which practices absolutely
no discrimination among persons
for any reason. and permits no
such unlawful discrimination in the
county he serves. The rare COM
plants of this nature have all been
investigated promptly, and full
reports prepared Immediately =
usually within 48 hours-a prac-
tice which is truly appreciated by
our interested organizations.
Everyone win recall that about
a year and half ago tremendous
and cruel pressure was put on
Mr.. Carroll to dismiss the cases
brought against persons who re-
fused to state whether they were
communists when testifying before
the Canwell Committee. Day after
day, hundreds of syrnpathizersI
marched into CAROLS office de-
handing dismissal of these cases.
They even went so far as to picket
the King County courthouse carry
ing signs denouncing Carroll and
villifying him for his refusal to
do so. 1t was to his everlasting
credit that he did refuse to dismiss
these cases. Last week the Su-
preme Court upheld all of the con-
victions which he obtained against
those persons who refused to tes-
tify.
Carroll has been willing and
ready to cooperate with all sincere
organizations which solicited his
help in programs for the reduction
of crime. He and the special dep
uty who handles cases of offenses
against children have spent many
hours travelling throughout the
County making hundreds of talks
before parents and community or
CARNATIONS pointing out the haz-
rds for small children and methods
for avoiding delinquency.
Nobody gets brushed Off in
Prosecutor CARROTS office. Every
legitimate complaint gets careful
courteous consideration. We know
that means lot of extra work,
Mr.. Carroll, but we think the
people will show you they appre-
ciate it on election day.
