Justice Department Hits Move
To Allow German to Sue U.S..

Mr.. Halbach has started suit Il
set aside his settlement with the
Government of his General Dye.
stuff Corp. starting on January
%. 1851. In that suit, his attor.
neys attached Mr.. Crowley's affi.
davit, dated December IL, 1850.
I'm that affidavit" said the Jus.
tice Department memorandum
"Mr. Crowley made what amount.
ed to charges of gross misconduct
and duress exercised by the Gov.
eminent upon Mr.. Halbach."
In part. Mr.. Crowley said al
follows:
There was a powerful group
in Washington which continued
constant pressure upon me as the
alien property custodian to re.
move Halbach from any connec.
ton with General Dyestuff Corp
In my opinion. Halbach. in con-
cluding the. transaction, did not
feel himself in a position to dc
arm's-length bargaining. He acted
under compulsion. calculated tc
break his will by extra-legal meth
odS, and. in turn, Halbach exer-
cised extreme duress upon his
daughters to avow. for himself
and his wife, the impact of the
campaign against him. which was
one of the shameful injustices OF
the war;
The Justice Department memo
raridum stated:
tThe Attorney General was
most concerned over these charges
and directed the Office of Alien
Property and the attorneys as
signed to the case to make the
fullest investigation of the facts
to determine what, if anything,
there was to support the charges
When no basis for the charges
was discovered, the Government
sought to take the oral deposition
Of MIR. Crowley so that he could
his charges.
"Mr. Crowley's deposition was
taken in New York on April 8,
1851. In the course of his testi-
mony, he withdrew all of the
charges which had apparently
been made by his affidavit. The
only reconciliation between his
testimony and the affidavit seems
to be that the affidavit was pre-
pared for his signature, and that
he, not a lawyer. did not appreci-
ate that his general remarks
about the rights of American citi-
zens, and as to what Mr.. Halbach
had said. would be taken as state
ments that Mr. Halbach's rights
had been violated"
The departments memorandum
continued:
"The powerful group ! in the
Government referred to in the
affidavit turned out to be some
Government officers. Mr.. Crowley
Withdrew the word powerful.
These men unanimously recon-
mended that Mr.. Halbach not be
retained as an officer of the
vested corporation. Mr.. Crowley
apparently disagreed with them,
but he absolved them of any
wrong motivation: he never had
any reason to doubt their integ-
rity or their sincerity. 81. The

Mental Facilities Studied

Montgomery County Manager
Irving G. McNayr wants to find
"a short cut to enable immediate
placement of mental patients in
State institutions instead of
holding them in the county jail
until clearance is gained.
He told the County Council
yesterday that mentally i'll per-
sons have to be kept in the Jail
two or three days, and sometimes
longer, while they await lengthy
procedural paper-passing."
Mr.. McNayr reported that none
of the county hospitals wants, to
set up temporary confinement ia
cilities for such cases and said
establishment of temporary facil-
tiles would cost the county too
much.

pressure upon me- was also re-
pudiated. Mr.. Crowley testified
that these words of the affidavit
were maybe little bit too
strong"
The memorandum further
stated:
''Mr. (James E.) Markham, who
succeeded Mr.. Crowley in March,
1914. and held that position until
October, 1916. felt that he should
not discharge Halbach while Hal
bach was seeking a review and
until a court settled the matter.
In his affidavit. Mr.. Markham
states: On many occasions, mem
bers Of my staff urged me to sever
Halbach's connection with the
GDC General Dystuff Corp.) be-
cause they were convinced he had
been a cloak for the enemy. had
the highest respect for the ability,
judgment and integrity of these
men. I believe that their recon-
mendations were the result of
their honest convictions. My own
position with respect to Halbach's S
relationship with GDC was that
1t would be an injustice to Hal
bach to discharge him before the
courts had passed on the merits
Of his claims to the return of the
vested stocks"
Compensation Shown.
In almost scornful terms, the
Department of Justice dispensed
Of Mr.. Crowley's charge of coercion
in these terms:
I'm any event, Mr.. Halbach's
retention on the payroll does not
show that the Government was in
consistent or wrong in believing
his stock was enemy owned. It
does show that there was no vim
dlctiVeness by the Government di-
rected personally at Mr.. Halbach.
It shows. moreover, that when Mr..
Haloach settled his claim against
the Government in 1945, he was
not under pressure for money. Be-
tween the vesting and the time he
retired on pension, Mr.. Halbach
received a total Of $558,O00 as
compensation. The figures, year

However. the conferees also de-
clared that they favored establish
ing minimum OF $500 or more for
lower salaried employees. Under
the Senate's formula, employees in
the lowest grade would receive a
pay boost of only 1920.
Senator LANCER. Republican, of
North Dakota, declared he would
seek minimum of $500 for class
ified employes-the same as that
given postal workers. The North
Dakotan, ranking minority men,
Der of the Senate Civil Service
Committee, limited that he would
not sign the conferees' report un-
less this minimum boost is guaran-
teed.
Chairman Johnston Of the Sen
ate Civil Service Committee said
he favors some kind of a floor
to guarantee lower salaried work.
ers at least $500 raise.
Murray Also For Guarantee.
Likewise, Chairman Murray of
the House Civil Service Committee
said he also favored a mini
mum guarantee.
President Truman, last week,
summoned the conferees to the
White House and informed them
that a percentage increase was the
only type Of pay bill that he could
sign into law. ~ ...
This apparently swayed the
House confereeS to support the
Senate version. However, both
House ana Senate conferees ap-
pear inclined to insert some sort
of a floor provision in the bill to
insure lower-salaried workers at
least a $500 boost or perhaps more.
House-Senate conferees late yes
terday had no difficulty at all in
agreeing on a postal pay raise
Most postal workers
would get a fiat $400 raise. In ad-
dition. postal supervisors and post
masters would get additional sums
ranging to $400. which would give
them a total pay boost ranging
from $400 to $500 a year. n>5t
LEAvE-Following the session
on the classified employees pay
boost, the conferees viii meet later
this afternoon on the postal rate
increase bill. which includes the
Senate's 13-to-26-days graduated
annual leave provision. @S
The conferees already have
agreed on the graduated leave
rider. but still have considerable
difference over the rate aspects Of
the bill. Unless the entire rate
bill is agreed on by the conferees,
the. graduated leave provision
would also be stymied. That's why
