Jackson REP. Calif). all of the
House Committee on Foreign AZ

A number of organizations affili-
ated with the National Civil Liber-
ties Clearing House endorsed the
suggestion.
In accepting the invitation, Ma
ssoka said that as an American CT
tizen he is delighted that this coun-
try is taking the lead in welcoming
Japan back into the family Of ma
lions with a just and non-punitive

can Of Japanese ancestry he Is
hopeful that this conference will be
the beginning Of a new and more
friendly era of international rela-

phraseology, Mike Masaoka. nation

Nisei workers who were once men,

would be subject to dismissal.
Although this measure, like Sc
many others of recent date, is aimed
at the Communists. so long as the

fear that 1t may be used against

cC1arran Plan Giving
Employers the Power of
Firing Subs Studied

WASHINGTON. D. c.. Aug. Ia
tADC)-A plan introduced by Sc
nator Pat McCarran (Dem.. New.
chairman of the powerful Judiciary
committee, to give employers power
to fire workers listed as members of
subversive groups Is under study by
the JACL ANTI Discrimination Com
mittee. It's Washington office re-
ported this week.
Offered in the name of coopera-
ton with the Go and AFL at
tempts to purge their ranks of Com
munism. the major labor organiza-
tons in the country are considering
the proposal.
The new plan is incorporated in
to bill which would amend the In
ternal Security Law Of 1850, also
authored by Senator McCarrsn.
The amendment has two main
provisions.
The first would extend the non-
Communist oath concept in the
Taft-Hartley Act so as to strip the
benefits of that law from any union
which has an officer or represen-
tatiye who Is member of Com
munist-front or Communist-a action
group, as defined in the McCarran
Act.
The second Is much more far
reaching.
The key paragraph reads:
Nothing in this act or any sta
tute of the United States shall pre-
clude an employer from discharsing
without liability an employee who
appears on the records, in the pos
session of the Federal government
or State government, as member
of an organization designated by the
Attorney General Of the United
States as subversive, or who has
concealed his membership in such
organization, or who has refused to
state to a duly constituted 1egisla-
tive committee whether or not he
Is or has knowingly or willingly been
a member Of such an organization"

Baltimore Grand Jur,
And McKeIdin Clash
lover Bribery Story
By the Assoeiated Press

BALTIMORE, Sept. 8.-A series
of quick exchanges over Balti-
more's crime situation among ~
the retiring grand jury (2) Gov.
McKeldin and go the chairman
of the State Crime Committee has
observers wondering who did what
to whom.
1t began yesterday with the
report of the Baltimore grand
Jury, which said it had received
sworn testimony that gamblers
had bribed police. And the jury
limited it didn't receive the CO.
operation it expected from the
Governor.
The Governor retorted that the
jury had hardly scratched the
surface, admitted that it didn't
have enough information on the
bribe assertions to warrant prose-
Icution and was just passing the
buck.
Senator Omar Crothers, Demo-
crat, of Cecil County, chairman of
the legislative councils crime COM
mittee, said he was happy to
have the grand jury's findings"
He added that now is the time to
call on Gov. McKeldin for the
money to finance a complete in
veStigation of crime in Baltimore
and Southern Maryland"
Hearings Scheduled Tuesday.
Senator Crothers' committee
will hold hearings in Baltimore
Tuesday.
The grandjury said it received
sworn testimony that gamblers
had bribed police officers to. escape
arrest. 1t urged Police Commls-
sioner Beverly Ober to 'look be-
meath the surface" in his own in
vestigation of the force.
The report added that Gov.
McKeldin had not been available"
ito the jury and suggested that
future grand juries that want to
talk to Gov. McKeldin should use
their power of subpoena"
The Governor, within a few
hours, released a 600-word state
ment saying the grand jury was
retiring after scratching the sur
face of crime conditions in Balti-
more, and without being sure of
what it has found underneath.
The result seems to be passing
of the buck, with little concern
about who intercepted the pass" !"
Denies He Was Unavailable.
He denied being unavailable to
the grand jury. He said his secre-
tary had received one telephone
call from the body. and he had
answered the jury'S request for
his appearance with an invitation
to meet with him in his Office.
Senator Crothers said the Gov
ernor has stated "he would CO.
operate with us fully and that if
funds are needed to hire investi-
gators, he would help us get
them"
He indicated his committee had
been "hamstrung" so far because
of lack of such funds.
