Vincent Asks Hearint
Before First Of Year
To Answer Budenz

John Carter Vincent. United
States diplomatic agent. has asked
the Senate Internal Security Sub
committee for public hearing
before January to reply to false
testimony" that he was Com
munist.
In the absence of Senator Nc
Carran. Democrat, of Nevada,
subcommittee chairman, officials
said they did not know whether a
hearing could be arranged at this
time. Senator McCarran. to whom
Mr.. Vincent sent a written request
November 8, is i'll in Nevada.
It was recalled, however, that
the subcommittee has announced
it would hold hearings whenever
possible for persons named in
testimony in its investigation of
any subversive influences on
United States policies in the Far
East.
Mr.. Vincent on Leave.
The request by Mr.. Vincent,
who is diplomatic agent and con-
sui at Tangier, was disclosed yes-
terday by the State Department.
Mr.. Vincent is here on leave but
expects to return to his post soon
after Christmas.
Mr.. Vincent declared he wanted
an immediate opportunity to reply
publicly under oath to what he
called false testimony" given to
the subcommittee by Louis Bu-
denz. former Communist editor.
Mr.. Budenz, now a Fordham
University professor, testified last
August % and October 5 that he
had heard in official party circles
that Mr. Vincent and Owen Lat
timore, Johns Hopkins University
professor, were Communists who
accompanied former Vice Presi-
dent Henry A. Wallace to China
in 1914.
Influence Efforts Denied.
Mr.. Wallace, in testimony be-
fore the subcommittee last month,
denied that any effort was made
to influence his recommendations
resulting from that mission to
China. He contended that his
suggestions to President Roose-
velt would not have helped the
Communists.
The State Department, in dis
closing Mr.. Vincent's letter, ex-
planned that no reply has be>n
received from Senator McCarran.
Believe me. this is not simply a
matter of self-defense," Mr.. VIM
cent wrote, THE issue far trans
cends personal considerations. We
cannot defend democracy with
perf1dy or defeat communism with
lies"
Mr.. Vincent said that since his
return to the United States he
read the Budenz testimony and
was shocked at the devious man.
ner In which he attempted to sup
port his false testimony"
Mr.. Vincent as well as Mr.. Lat
timore had previously denied they
are or were Communists.
