was told, in the Latin-American
division, Mr.. Duggan was killed
in a fall from a New York Office
building several years ago.
Mrs. Massing said it took about
nine months to get Field to agree
to serve with tie spy apparatus.
AS for Mr.. Duggan, she added,
He didn't require much time. "
After three or four meetings, she
explained, he agreed to help in
her work.
Used Anti-FasciSt Approach.
Mrs. Massing said she came to
Washington as a "recruiter" and
used the approach of enliSting
support in the fight against fas-
cism as worldwide menace.
She said Mr.. Duggan would not
agree to give the spy apparatus
any documents, but consented to
make verbal reports to a contact
about once a week. She added
that she never know who the
contact was.
"Was there any doubt about
Field or Duggan knowing you were
a Communist" Senator Ferguson,
Republican, Of Michigan asked.
"Oh, no." Mrs. Massing replied.
Met Barnes in Moscow.
In reply to other questions, Mrs.
Massing said she had encountered
Joseph Barnes in 1887 when she
was in Moscow under close surveil-
lance and questioning as to her
loyalty to the Communists.
Mr.. Barnes, one time official of
the American Council Of the Insti-
tute of Pacific Relations and o
former foreign editor for the New
York Herald Tribune, figured in
Tuesdays testimony by Alexander
Barmine, former Russian intelli-
gence officer, who is now In the
State Departments Voice of Amer

Mr.. Barmine quoted the head of
the Russian military intelligence
as referring to Mr.. Barnes and

more owing to the pressure of
other national legislation.
In the House, it's up to the
Rules Committee to clear the way
for action on the $400 measure.
chairman SABBATH of the commit
tee said today he favors the bill,
and he predicted that his group
will approve it.
Indications are, however, that
House sponsors of the pay bill will
wait until the Senate acts before
bringing it up for House action.
An analysis of the two bills
shows that Government employees
earning less than 5000 a year
would benefit more under the
House Civil Service Committee bill.
Those employees earning more
than $4,000 would fare better I'M
der the Senate Civil Service Com
mittee's measure. The great bulk
of Federal employees earn less
than $1,000 annually, so conse-
quently the $400 measure is the
more popular one.
Incidentally, the House commit
tee included all classified employees
in the bill, after deciding not to
cut of top-bracket employees from
its benefits.
The classified measure affects
about IL million Federal and Dis
trict Government employees, in
GLIDING about 235, 900 in the Wash
ington area.
In a surprise move, the COM
mittee also included in its bill
Washington policemen, firemen
and school teachers. In past pay
raises, these employees always were
included in separate legislation
handled by the House District
Committee. The civil service group,
however, felt these employees need
a raise as much as other Govern
ment workers do and that includ-
ing them in the one bill would
speed up matters.
| 4 X Il X
PERMANENT - Another well
come provision of the House COM
mittee's bill is the clause that
would make the raises permanent.
Several weeks ago. the committee
decided on a temporary increase
but then voted to reverse itself
The raise would be retroactive to
July l. If this retroactivity Is ap-
proved by Congress is not con-
tanned in the Senate Civil Service
Committees meaSure-it would
not matter too much to Federal
Iemployes when Congress got
around to passing the. bill since
eventually they would get back
pay to July /.
X X Il
ABSORB COST-Another pro-
vision adopted by the committee
would compel the Governments
non-defense agencies to absorb the
cost Of the raise by trimming its
personnel.
This is not as important as it
sounds, since, in virtually Of all
Of the previous Government pay
raises since 1945, the various
agencies were required by the
House and Senate Appropriations
Committees to absorb the in
creased payroll costs. This meant

Judge Frees HadIock
Of 2Charges After
Drunk Driving Trial

Gerald B. Hadlock, So, of 801
North Wayne street, executive di-
rector OF the Office of Rubber Re-
serve In the Reconstruction FL
nance Corp, has been freed of
drunken driving and hit and run
charges.
After listening to three hours
OF testimony and examining al
legged damage to two automobiles
involved in the dispute, Arlington
County Court Judge Harry R.
Thomas dismissed the charges for
lack OF evidence.
A neighbor of Mr.. \Hadlock,
%ichard Staley, of seq North
Wayne street. made the complaint
that resulted in the arrest. Mr..
Staley said his car was damaged
the night of July 10 when Mr..
Hadlock was parking in front of
the apartment building where they
live
On the witness stand, Mr.. Had
JOCK said he had not driven his
car that day and had not been
drinking. He said he was anxious
to have the judge examine the
Two cars to prove that scratches
and paint damage on the two cars
did not match.
Mr.. Hadlock's wife testified the
scratches on their car were the
result OF an accident at a WASH
ington garage.
This testimony was disputed by
Arlington Policeman Gilbert
stream. Each car bore paint marks
from the other vehicle, the officer
said, and dents in the tenders
matched.
Mr.. Stream also told the Judge
that Mr.. Hadlock was staggering
at the time Of his arrest and had
q strong odor Of alcohol.

gator there.
Both Men Deny Charges.
She said she expressed concern
about seeing Mr.. Barnes, whom
she knew as an American CORE

Mrs. Massing told the Senators
she was born in Vienna in 1900,

denied the charge in sworn testi-
