RULES COMMITTEE KILLS
ELECTION REFORM PLAN

Washington (LPA)-The Lodge
Gossett plan for new presidential
election system is virtually dead
for the present. The House Rules
committee turned the constitutions

Rep. Ed Gossett Cd, Tex, the
House sponsor, had announced in

Fears of liberal Democrats that
the amendment would strengthen

McC CdrthY Wins Fight To
Present Charges His Way

washington (LIA) Sefldtoi
Joseph Mccarthy Or, Wis.) has
won his battle to present his
charges of Communism among
State Department officials his own
way-after a two-day battle with
the Senate investigating commit
tee. Plenty of innocent people will
be smeared, but the Committee has
agreed to give anyone labeled a
Communist by the Senator an Sim
mediate" chance to reply.
In accordance with this proce-
dure, worked out at a long execu-
tive session, the Committee agreed
to hear McCarthy's charges with
out interruption, or cross examina-
ton, and to hear those he has so
far named as closely affiliated with
Communists-Judge Dorothy Ken
yon, of New York, and Ambassador
at Large Philip c. Jessup the fol-
lowing day.
The decision was reached after
Judge Kenyon wired Chairman
Millard Tydings Cd, Md demand
ing a chance to be heard "at the
earliest opportunity" to answer
what she called McCarthy's "mal-
icious" charges.
Giving Mccarthy a chance to
present his charges without cross
examination, marked reversal of
the policy of fairness originally
adopted by the committee of ques-
tioning each bit of evidence as it
was presented. The switch meant
Mccarthy could smear State De-
partment employees to his hearts
content by "evidence" based on as
sociation. Those named might not
be able to reply until much later,
despite the committees best efforts
to protect their rights.
1t might, for instance, take the
committee several days to hear
Judge Kenyon and Ambassador
Jessup. Meanwhile, many witnesses
whose names had been disclosed by
Mccarthy would have no chance to
reply.
The reversal was agreed to by
the committee after it tried for two
days to make Mccarthy conform to
its view of how the evidence should
be presented.
At the second day of its open in
vestigation, the Committee had
Mccarthy on the spot, but he man.
aged to squirm out. He had charg-
ed a 'big State Department offic-
ial'' tampered with evidence against
some employees, but in another sec
tion of his charges indicated the
same man was highly patriotic
official. Apparently Mccarthy did
not realize that the man he charg-
ed with protecting bad security
risks was the very one he praised.
The committee tried to get him
to name the man, but Mccarthy
refused, saying he wasn't sure of
the name. The Committee asked
for his evidence, but the Senator
said that he had no evidence to
back up this charge-Committee
Democrats tried to show his whole
case was fishing expedition"

 Funds are provided for school building constructions in areas af- fected by Federal activities in Title II of the Act. As only $46,000, ,00000 is provided for this purpose it is anticipated little assistance will be given Alaska under this section of the act, pr. Ryan said.
 Alaska Schools Good
 pr. Ryan said that in his partici- patton of the Council conferences with chiefs of state school officers, he was particularly impressed with the fact that Alaska rates high in it's educational program. AS a mat ter of fact, he said, the program as administered in the Territory IS on a much higher standard than that in many sections of the states.
 The Council has membership of 52 and included chief school of- ficers of the 48 states, territories and possessions of the United Stat. es.
 The two main problems in the educational field in Alaska are also the two main problems in the states, those of lack of adequate school buildings and scarcity Of teachers, the Schools Director said.
 pr. Ryan said he found consld- erably more apprehension over the present serious international situa- tion is displayed in Washington ana also on the Pacific Coast than IS apparent in Alaska.
