Refusal OF Service
Ruling by FEC Goes
Against Phone Co.

The Federal Communications
Commission ruled today that the
American Telephone g. Telegraph
Co. and the Chesapeake & Po-
tomac Telephone Co. are not auto
matically exempt from liability
when they refuse to serve a SUBJ
scriber on the request of a law
enforcement agency.
The FEC decision was in a case
brought against the phone COM
Ipanies by Harry and Bertha B.
Katz after they were threatened
with removal Of their telephone
on the strength of the advice OF
George Morris Fay. then United
States attorney for the District,
TO the telephone company that
he was in possession of "compe-
tent evidence" that the instrument
was being used for gambling pur-
poses.
The ruling said the defendants
could not claim automatic exemp-
tion from liability simply because
they include in their tariff a
sentence which reads as follows:
Service will not be furnished if
any law-enforcement agency, act
ing within it's Jurisdiction, advises
that such service is being used or
will be used in violation Of law,
or if the telephone company re-
ceives other evidence that such
service is being used or will be so
used"
The FEC said, on the other
hand, that its ruling should not
be construed as precluding the
companies from considering all
evidence it may have in deter
mining if it should provide service.

Sfricter Standards
Urged on Loyalty Of
Hearing Examiners

The Civil Service Commission
urged today that Congress make
administrative agency hearing ex-
aminers subject to the reasonable
doubt" standard that applies to
other Government employees in
vestigated by loyalty boards.
Disclosing that some 10 hearing
examiners have been questioned
by loyalty boards, the commission
noted that an Administrative Pro-
cedure Act provision relating spe-
cifically to such examiners make
it almost impossible to remove a
hearing examiner who is disloyal." )"
The law provides that hearing
examiners may be removed by
their respective agencies only after
an opportunity for hearing and
ON disclosure OF the record and
possible scross-examination at pro-
ceedings resembling a court trial.
Under the loyalty board pro-
cedures, the detailed complaints or
sources Of such information as
compiled principally by the FBI
do not have to be disclosed.
The commission pointed out in o
letter to Congress today that an
executive order by the President
last May set reasonable doubt"
of loyalty instead of reasonable
as a standard for pos
sible dismissal Of an employe. The
Loyalty Review Board earlier this
week reopened 565 cases to de-
termine whether they met the
reasonable doubt" standard.
'The commission believes" an
official said today, that the situa-
ton can be remedied by an amend
ment to the Administrative Pro-
cedure Act to provide that hearing
may be removable on
charges Of disloyalty in accordance
with the procedures that are ap-
plicable to all other Federal officers
and employees"
The official said also that the
proposed amendment being sent to
congressional leaders is satisfac-
tory to the Budget Bureau.

Failed Mental Tests
To Be Re-exumined
By George Beveridqe

District draft boards will order
new mental tests during January
for 90 men who have been classi-
fed 4-F because they previously
failed to meet mental standards
for induction.
District officials disclosed the
plan today, as Selective Service
Director Lewis B. Hershey an
nounced that an estimated 800, 900
men throughout the Nation who
previously failed the mental tests
will be re-examined during 1852.
About $4,000 men each month will
be re-checked, he said.
Passing Score Reduced.
The vast re-examining Job in
compliance with a provision of the
new draft law, passed last June,
which reduced the passing score
on the controversial mental tests
from 70 to IS. However, officials
said. all men who were deferred
because they made scores below
70 will be re-checked. even If their
scores were under IS.
Nationally. Gen. Hershey said,
military doctors examined 1,828,-
600 men between July, 1850, and
November, 1851, and rejected As
per cent Of them. OF these re-
jected, he said. about 800, 900 were
turned down solely for failure to
meet the mental standards.
There was no estimate Of how
many of the 5000 may be found
eligible for induction. Among
those who do qualify, however, the
Oldest will be indicted first.
The 90 listed by District boards
as 4-Fs will be re-examined on
January II. 1s and Is. officials
said.
1,200 Rejected Since July.
1t is not possible, they said, to
estimate accurately how many
DlStrct men Will be re-checked
during 1852.
Since July, 1850, the officials
said. about 1900 men have been
rejected for mental reasons alone.
However. some of them became Is
before the new draft act was
signed last June. and no longer
are eligible. In addition, many
others-even if they now could
qualify under the mental tests
may be eligible for deferment on
grounds of dependency or for
other reasons.

sentative Javits, Republican-Lib-
eral, of New York said Marine
