| A striking new development in
volving the 1945 Amerasia case
brought q fresh dispute today be-
tween Senator Mccarthy, Repub-
lican. of Wisconsin, and the Sen
ate group investigating his charges
Of communism in the Government
The new development came in
the form Of a statement by a
former Government prosecutor
that the Justice Department case
against the Amerasia defendents
all but fell apart when some OF
them learned that the major evil
dence against them had been OBJ
tanned Illegally.
The defendants were charged
with unlawful removal Of hun
dreds of secret Government docu-
ments. some of which were found
in the offices Of Amerasia maya
zine, a now-defunct publication
which dealt with Far Eastern
affairs.
The Government prosecutor in
the case was Robert NJ. Hitchcock
who read his statement behind
closed doors yesterday to the Sen
ate Foreign Relations Subcom-
mittee studying the Mccarthy
charges.
Mccarthy Protests.
In releasing the statement lat
er, Chairman Tydings said addi-
tional testimony by Mr.. Hitchcock
was not being made available be-
cause there was not time to pre-
pare it.
That prompted a sharp COM
ment from Senator Mccarthy,
who has called the Amerasia case
key part of his charges that the
State Department harbors Com
munists and Communist sympa-
thizers.

Transfer Of Voorhees,
Said 10 Emphasize
Military Interest
by the Associoisd Press

American military interests will
play a vital part in White House
development of q new global eco
nomic program to succeed the
Marshall Plan.
Officials said today this fact is
reflected in the appointment Of
Tracy Voorhees,, former Undersec-
retary Of the Army and now a
consultant to Army Secretary
Frank Pace, as a member Of the
staff Of Presidential Assistant
Gordon Gray.
Mr.. Gray, himself a former
Army Secretary, was named by
the President earlier this year to
direct a Government wide study
Of what the United States should
do to keep an adequate supply of
dollars in the hands of friendly
nations when the multibillion-
dollar European Recovery Pro-
gram ends in 1852.
Strategic Imports Mentioned.
Involved in this project are
three matters having an impor-
tant bearing on national defense:
(a) The necessity of insuring
imports for the Nations stockpile
of strategic materials; (b) the
effect of United States economic
planning on the occupation of
Germany and Japan, and Co the
need to protect vital American de-
tense industries from the possibly
harmful effects of European COM
petition.
Mr. Gray has now substantially
completed the organization of a
staff which includes top-fiight ex-
perts on this country's defense
needs, as we'll as. some of the
Nations leading economic author
tiles.
This group hopes to complete
report to the President sometime
in August. It is expected that
recommendations and a general
non-partisan program Of action
will be ready in time for Mr.. Tru-
man to present the matter to
Congress in his State of the Union
message next January.
Imports to Be Increased.
The present speculation, based
on information already in the
hands of the Government, is that
Mr.. Gray will find two main lines
of American action desirable when
the Marshall Plan ends.
The first is an increase in i'm
ports, particularly from the Mar
shall Plan countries, in order to
give them more of the dollars
they need to buy the products
which this country can supply.
The second speculative line of
action is that some new American
Government loans or grants will
be required to further build up
dollar supplies abroad.
Favors Markets for Japan.
In the matter of stockpiling
strategic material, Mr.. Gray-act-
ing on information received by Mr..
Voohees from military sources
presumably will try to see that the
United States is assured in future
programs as it has been in the
Marshall Plan agreements of ac-
cess to strategic materials.
As for the effect of the project
on occupation policies, Mr.. Voor-
hees is known to favor the. Develop
ment Of markets for japanese
goods in Southeast Asia as
means of cutting the cost of Amer
ican support for the japanese
economy.
The third factor of military i'm
portance concerns increased in
american imports from Western
Europe. Secretary Of State Ache
son has said that this will newt
ably disrupt some American busi-
nesses. Military leaders want to
be sure that no United States in
dustries are affected which might
be essential in any future war.

Allies Will Consider
Adenauer's Views
On European Army
By the Associated Press

BONN, Germany, Dec. 15.-The
Western Allies planned today to
calm German opposition to re-
armament by consulting Chan
cellor Konrad Adenauer's govern
ment before final plans are made
for the European army.
A spokesman for the three
occupation powers in West Ger
many said Atlantic pact Foreign
Ministers meeting next Wednesday
in Brussels would not complete
plans for the use of German con-
tingents on a take it or leave 1t
basis. Instead they will keep in
mind possible German reaction to
the proposals.
A communique said the high
commissioners of the United
States, Britain and France assured
DR.. Adenauer yesterday that plans
approved in London this week for
Germany's contribution to the
proposed army would not be final
until approved by the Foreign
Ministers.
Reports of the London decisions
to use only scattered German
contingents of less than 5000 men
each-brought the quick an
nouncement from DR.. Adenauer
that West Germany would reject
any plan that did not give Ger
man troops equality with other
nations.

dustrial plants. dismantled and
moved from Manchuria.
The magazine did not give the
source of it's report. 1t said the

of any foreign power which might
become involved in war with Red
China"

Russians May Invoke
Alliance With China,
u. 5. Officials Imply
BY the Associated Press

The State Department said
yesterday Moscow may be build
ing up another big lie" about
Japanese rearmament as an ex-
cuse for military aid to Commu-
mist China.
With a bristling counterattack
on Moscow's charges that the
United States and Japan have
taken first steps to revive the
japanese army, the department
suggested that Russia may be
getting ready to put into full eff
fects its war alliance with the
Peiping regime.
BY this 10-month-old treaty,
the Soviet Union and Red China
agree to give each other military
aid If they were attacked by
Japan or any power "allied" with
Japan.
Answer to Pravda Story.
cit would look as though they
were building UP another big lie,"
the department said in a sharp
statement. Japan has no army
and the effort is being made to
hoodwink the people of the world
into thinking that Japan has an
army"
The occasion for the unusual
blast was publication by Moscow's
Pravda of a Tass agency dispatch
datelined Shanghai. It asserted
that the Tokyo foreign ministry
had presented Gen. Douglas Mac
Arthur with a report on the crea-
ton of a japanese army to serve
with the United Nations forces in
Korea.
Earlier, similar charges of Jap
anese rearmament had been made
by Russian representatives on the
13-nation Far Eastern Commits
sion. These were twice denied by
United States representatives on
the commission. To clinch the
denials, the State Department ig-
nored diplomatic niceties to brand
such charges as a naked lie"
Police Reserve Building Up.
With the help of Gen. Mac
Arthur as occupation commander,
Japan is currently building a new
75,000-man police reserve force,
but the State Department de-
clared its function will be that of
police only.
Press Officer Michael ]. Nc
Dermott read the statement at
a news conference. He said in
response to a question it is a
possibility" that Moscow through
the Communist propaganda ma
chine" is building up an excuse
to invoke the Soviet Chinese al
lance. What this would mean
was not suggested.
Mr.. McDermott said he did not
know whether japanese sailors
have manned minesweepers since
the Korean fighting started. but
contended even if this were so the
action would not mean they were
waging war. Minesweepers are
being used. he noted. to deal with
free-foating. unanchored mines
which are forbidden by interna-
tional law.
