BrOWder Gives Lie To BudenZ' Testimony

ASHIN GTON, (H) - Earl BroWder, former Communist par ty chief, told Senate investigators yesterday that "the the best of my knowledge and belief" there are no communists in the state de- partment
 BroWder, who was expelled from the communist party in l946, said that if he knew of any communists in the department he would say so but that he doesn't know of any.
 Edward Morgan, counsel to a Senate foreign relations sub-com- mittee, asked him if he would give names if he knew them.
 Browder: said: No, would not give you the names"
 Morgan: "If you knew there were any communists in the state department would you tell me that?"
 Browder: "Yes. To the best of my knowledge and belief there are not any in the state depart ment."
 Browder also told the commit tee that he has never met Owen Lattimore but knows him by rep utation "as a person of anti-con- munist views of a very profound character"
 Specifically and flatly. Browder contradicted testimony from Louis F. Budenz that Lattimore'S name came up at a meeting of com munist leaders in New York City in October, 1887.

Paul came out for three encores.

For easy example, take, say, the
great tragedian, Junius Brutus
Booth-a name to conjure with and
make faces at.
JUNIUS BRUTUS was born in
England a few years before the
18th century made its bow, and by
the time he was 10 a servant girl
had accused him of being the faith
er of her out-of-bounds baby. Dur
ing the next four years, among
other things, he took a crack at
being a sailor, a sculptor and the
husband of two ladies, without the
customary divorce in between.
None Of this stunted his growth,
however, because by the time he
was 20 he had become one Of the
great stars of the London stage. He
appeared at Covent Garden as
Richard III, and the following sea-
son at Drury Lane as Iago to
Keane's Othello. And, unless the
