most Of such cases, VA official
said, hospitals probably will close
off beds as patients now occupy

Waiting List to Grow.
The APA said cuts would in
crease waiting lists of patients at
mental hygiene clinics from 5000,
at present, to 10000. The move
will force some clinic patients to
be treated on a fee-basis by pri-
vate doctors, at a cost increase
from $3.50 to $12, 1t was reported.
The APA said only Is per cent
of 100000 eligible veterans with
mental ills have been treated so

stressed the Importance of the
clinic program in the hope that
early care would correct ailments
before they require costly hos

OF the $4,000 patients IN VA
hospitals, about $4,000 are in

The Agriculture Department
official identified. the firm making
the purchase as Kraft Cheese Co.
It is processing the cheese at
Pocatello. Idaho.
He said he did not know the
price paid by the company. but he
added: ''It's safe to assume 1t was

The official conceded the trans
action was reminiscent Of recent
imports to this country Of Ca

domestic supported potatoes. This
situation aroused members of
Congress, some Of whom have
sought to ban the Canadian prod

While the New Zealand cheese
sales are small in comparison to
total United States production of
all cheese (900 million pounds last

that this country. up to now, has

He said the program "is so sub
ject to abuses on the one hand
and to public misunderstanding
on the other, I feel strongly that
some other formula must be de-

Senator Lehman conceded he

Chairman Connally of the full
Foreign Relations Committee said
the investigating group should
first hear Mr.. baltimore before
we go off after any Of these mys-
terry witnesses" q
'He (McCarthy) said he would
stand or fall on the baltimore
case, didn't he?" Senator Con-
nally remarked.
This was a reference to Sena-.
tor McCarthy's recent statement
that he is willing to let all his
charges against the State Depart
ment stand or fall on the Latti-
more case.
Spirited Exchanges Develop.
:, Democratic Senators broke in
to the Mccarthy speech several
times with questions that brought
SplrlCeQ exchanges.
Senator Lehman of New York
wanted to know if Senator Nc
Carthy had presented all the
baltimore material to the inves-
tigating committee. When, the
Wisconsin Senator said he had
not, Senator Lehman said that if
the charges were made in good
faith Senator Mccarthy would go
before the committee with them.
He accused Senator Mccarthy of
making "a spectacle" Of the Lat
timore case and giving persons he
has accused no chance to answer
him.
Senator Lehman also wanted to
know why documents were not
placed in the Senate record rather
than just excerpts from some of
them. Senator Mccarthy replied
that some OF them contained ma
terial that should not be made
public.
He invited Senator Lehman to
look at them and see why "a fuller
disclosure would be completely un-
fair" Senator Lehman walked
over to look at them but Senator
Mccarthy refused to hand them
over and stuffed them into a brief
case as the galleries applauded.
Backs Away From Spy Charge.
Senator Humphrey, Democrat,
Of Minnesota asked why the docu-
ments had not been turned over
to the FBI for prosecution. Sena-
tor Mccarthy retorted that the
FBI had no power to prosecute.
In his Senate speech Senator
Mccarthy backed away from his
charge that Mr.. baltimore is a
Soviet spy. He said he may have
placed too much emphasis on
whether or not Mr.. baltimore "has
been an espionage agent"
The most important thing, he
added. is Mr.. Lattimore's aims
and what he advocates in view of
his position Of power in the State
Departments formation of Asiatic
policy-"whether his aims are
American aims or whether they
coincide with the aims of Soviet
Russia" He has said the State
Department consulted Mr.. Latti-
more on its Far Eastern policies.
Later, the law firm of Arnold,
Fortas & Porter. representing Mr..
baltimore, said the Senator's
speech was an attempt to support
his charges with welter of

not.
The Secretary branded as quite
untrue a charge by Senator Nc
Carthy that Ambassador Philip
c. Jessup had originated a
smear" campaign against Cen
eralissimo Chang Kai shek
through the Institute of Pacific
Relations.
Mr.. Acheson also was asked
about a document which Senator
Mccarthy described as a secret
current foreign relations" report.
and how the Senator obtained it.
He said he did not have the faint
est idea how the report got into
Senator McCarthy's hands. He
added that he thought the Sena-
tor might have been referring to
the title of a document periodi-
cally sent to missions abroad.
In his new attack on Mr.. Latti-
more, Senator Mccarthy also as
sailed the State Department in
geenral and DR.. Jessup. He de-
scribed DR.. Jessup as "a very
willing stooge" for Mr.. baltimore
in developing the State Depart
ment's Far Eastern policies.
AS the Wisconsin Senator held
the floor before crowded galleries
that applauded him at one point
President Truman in a news con-
ference in Key West, Fla, de-
nounced three Republican Sena-
tors for their attacks on the State
Department and said their at
tempts to wreck the bipartisan
foreign policy was "the greatest
asset that the Kremlin has"
Also Assails Wherry and Bridges
Mr.. Truman directed his scath-
ing remarks at Senator Mccarthy
and Senators Wherry of Nebraska
and Bridges Of New Hampshire,
who have taken the lead in at
tacking the State Department
The three Senators were quick to
issue rejoinders.
Senator Wherry said that the
Wisconsin Senator had made a
case that iss"clear cut" and that
it is up to the State Department
Ito refute the charges if it can"
Senator Bridges denied the
Presidents accusation and said
"the only sabotage I'm trying to
create is sabotage Of some of the
|subversive security risks so that
they are thrown out of key spots
in the Government"
Senator Mccarthy commented:
II plead guilty Of sabotaging our
foreign policy in the Far East. If
someone can disrupt the plans for
turning the rest of the East over
to Russia, it would be a good
thing"
Senator McCarthy's new bar
rage against Mr.. baltimore brought
new problems to the Senate group
headed by Senator Tydings, Dem
ocrat, Of Maryland, that is in
vestigating his charges.
After, completing his speech,
Senator Mccarthy did not turn
over the documents or the name
of the mystery witness to the
investigating committee and indi-
Gated he might not do so.
He had asked FBI Director j.
Edgar Hoover to have an agent
present to receive the documents.
Mr.. Hoover promised to do so, but
no agent was around when Sena-
tor Mccarthy left the chamber.
He said. however. that the FBI
'Is going to get every scrap of
evidence I have"
Senator McCarthy's Office said
all the information was turned
over to the FBI this morning.
The Senator was not at the Cap

Naval Medical Center for treat
