Senate Civil Service Committee
Slated for Drastic Revision

portant bills beneficial to Federal
employees.
Active in Pay Raise Measure.
Senator Long handled the 1949
Federal pay raise measure in the
Senate. Senator Humphrey also
played an important role in the
bills enactment. Both also had
important parts in the enactment
OF bills involving retirement, as
well as other employe benefits.
The reason they are leaving the
Civil Service Committee is to take
more assignments more important
to them. Senator Long was as
signed both to the Banking and
Currency Committee and the In
terror and Insular Affairs Com
mittee. while Senator Humphrey,
was assigned to the Agriculture
and the Labor and Public We'll
fare Committees.
Despite their transfers the two
Senators are expected to continue
to show interest in civil service
matters.
While serving in the House, Mr..
Monroney and Mr.. Smathers were
familiar with civil service legisla-
ton. Senators Pastore and Glenn
ents also are said to be interested
in employe matters.

Lowell MeIIett:

The most wholesome Incl
dent in the opening week of our
new Congress occurred in con-
nection with the seating of
John NJ. Butler as Senator from
Maryland. "The greatest legis-
lative body in the world" to use
Vice President Barkley's slightly
unoriginal description, attached
a good strong string to the seat
Mr.. Butler was permitted to take
and reserved the right to yank
it out from under him later.
The belief in the chamber as
this was being done was that in
due time the Senate will exer-
else this right.
This is due to the fact that
the Marylander has come to the
Senate through the operation of
peculiarly foul politics. His vet
eran and well-respected prede-
cessor was defeated in a manner
to give other Senators grave
misgivings. These Senators. as
they watched Senator Millard
E. Tydings depart. said to
themselves, There. but for the
grace of God and good luck, go

of some of them, lay in their
not being candidates in the
year of triumphant Mccarthy
ism and so not exposed to the
kind of campaign that brought
Tydings low. And the now du-
bious Senators are not all Demo-
Gratis. Many Republicans are

TAIPEI, Formosa, Jan. 5.-Press

Mr.. WI, who is. I believe, a
product of Moscow training
schools, did make some accurate
statements of fact. Even DR..
Goebbels occasionally told some
truths.
But Mr.. Wu's speech, in sub.

insulting TRADE, punctuated
with MARKHAM cliches, showing
warlike spirit and most un-
Chinese discourtesy toward a
people among whom he was an
invited guest, and without a
single conciliatory gesture,
falsely accusing the United
States of imperialist designs.
There was not the slightest

can ever be.
Finally. I believe we should use
the same methods of infiltration as
have the Russians. We need a much
more effective intelligence force. We
need to study the methods by which
those millions who yearn for liberty
in satellite countries may be organ
lied to seize power wherever they
have the support of their fellow
citizens. =.
Points Summed Up.
Conclusion:
The threat of Communism is real.
Those who are directing its affairs
are, brilliant and unprincipled.
America must be the leader in the
battle to prevent the spread of
Communism and preserve the lib
erty of the world In the field Of
military operations. our strongest
position is in the air and on the
sea, and we should not attempt to
be also a controlling power on the
land. We should not be a military
aggressor or give the impression of
military aggression or incite war
which might otherwise never occur.
Operations on the continents Of
Europe and Asia, if any, should be
undertaken only with the greatest
ere and under careful limitation.
We must not so extend ourselves as
to threaten economic collapse or
imitation, for a productive and free
America is the last bastion of liberty.
And finally, the policy we adopt
must be approved by Congress and
the people after full and free dis
cussion.

The lineup OF Democrats
on the Senate Civil Service Com
mittee has been revised drastically
with three members taking other
committee assignments.
Missing from the committee will
be Senators Long of Louisiana
Humphrey of Minnesota, and
Frear of Delaware.
Taking their places will be
freshman Senators Monroney OF
Oklahoma. Smathers of Florida
and Clements OF Kentucky. Sen
ators Monroney ana Smathers
previously served in the House.
Another new member will be
Senator Pastore of Rhode Island
who succeeds Senator Leahy OF
the same State, who did not seek
reelection.
Three Are Held Over.
Holding over on the committee
from the 81st Congress are Chair
man Johnston of South Carolina,
and Senators Mcclellan of Ten
nessee, and Neely OF West Vir-
ginia.
The new lineup of the commit
tee was revealed last night by
Senate Majority Leader McFar-
land after a meeting of the Demo-
cratic Steering Committee.
Republicans will meet next week
to make their committee selec-
tions. Because of the Republi-
can Senate gains in the November
elections, they will get more COM
mittee posts, with the result that
there will be seven Republican

Remington Persuaded

Witness Relates
BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Jan. Cone OF
his former Dartmouth College
chums testified yesterday that
William w. Remington once was
a member of the Young Commu-
mist League. However, the pre-
siding judge ruled that such mem
bership does not constitute Com
munist Party afflliation.
Remington, 33, former Com
merce Department economist, is
being tried on Federal perjury
charge that he lied in denying
under oath before a grand jury
that he ever was a Communist
Party member.
The witness, Roscoe C. Giles, 81
a Berkeley (Calif) court reporter,
testified that Remington and two
other students at Dartmouth Col
lege recruited him into the Young
Communist League while he was
at the school in 1878.

Mr.. Giles said the trio assured
him they were members of the
YCL.
When Mr.. Giles had finished his

ney William C.. Chanler moved to
have it stricken from the record
as irrelevant.
Federal Judge Gregory F. Moo
nan agreed and commented:
Membership in the Young
Communist League as such is not
proof of membership in the Com
munist Party as such. and as such
has no probative value"
Sensing the chance for making
a point, Mr. Chanler and his aids
Immediately decided to withdraw
their objection. Mr.. Giles testi-
mony then remained on the court
record, thus giving the defense
the opportunity to cross-examine
the witness.
Says He Quit YCL.
In the cross-ex Mr..
Giles testified that he finally quit
the YCL in his senior year, never
going on to become a Commu-
mist Party member.

YCL relationship to the party.
United States Attorney Irving H.
Saypol recalled that on Thursday
another witness had testified to
the close ties between the party
and the youth league. The wit
ness was Paul Crouch, a former
high party official.
Another witness yesterday, Ern-
est Danzi, assistant postmaster at
Hanover, N. H., presented a record
showing that Remington rented
post Office box 912 in Hanover be-
tween 1887 and 1888.
This was the same Hanover box
listed for Remington on a sub
scription card to the Southern
Worker, a Communist newspaper.

dicated Remington first received

munist post Office box" in Knox

transformation came when they
realized that the U. N. forces no
longer were fighting the army
of a small Soviet satellite
North Korea-but the vast
forces of the most recently Gre

They were willing to label a
small country as the aggressor.
But when a large country was
guilty of an unprovoked act of
war. they began to hesitate.
Under ordinary circumstances
an attack against American
