He said DR.. Weinberg would be
paid for another school year, but
that his teaching and research
duties stopped as of yesterday.
The House committee in 194s
named DR.. Weinberg as the "Sci-
enlist x" alleged to have trans
mitted atomic secrets to Commu-
mist agents during the war. DR.
Weinberg, who was then employed
at the Atomic Radiation Labora-
tory at the University of Cali

He has several times been called
before a Federal grand jury in
Washington, but has never been
indicted. Last month, he refused
to answer certain questions put
to him by the grand jury.
DR.. Morrill, then suspended him
for refusing to cooperate with
Federal authorities. A Federal
judge later dismissed the contempt
charges, saying DR.. Weinberg was
within his rights in refusing tc
answer the questions.

"Of course we may have to agree

Mr.. Lewis and the UNIV. He

union fine to 100000.
