Civil Defense Chief
Tells Of Funds Sent
For Hunts Campaign
BY the Associated Press

TALLAHASSEE, Fla, Sept. %.
Millard Caldwell. United States
civil defense administrator, said
today he sent $4,000 in Demo-
cratic Party campaign funds to
Wyoming to help elect Senator
Lester Hunt.
He said he sent similar contri-
buttons to four other Democratic
Senators who had stiff Republican
opposition.
Senator Caldwell, Governor of
Florida at the time, said he
raised the money to help Demo-
cratic candidates.
He was asked about the contri-
button to Senator Hunt by re-
porters who were tipped by Loyal
Compton, press secretary to Gov
ernor Fuller Warren, that a copy
of Senator Hunts campaign ex-
pense statement showed it.
Warren Hits Hunt.
Governor Warren recently has
issued several statements attack
ing Senator Hunt, a member of
the Kefauver-O'Conor Senate
Crime Investigating Committee,
which was critical of his campaign
expenditures and his administra-
ton as Governor.
He has sent investigators into
home States of some members of
the committee to get information
to use against them.
Governor Warren also is gen.
orally on the opposite side of the
Democratic Party political fence
from Mr.. Caldwell in Florida.
Sent Direct Help.
Mr.. Caldwell said he collected
the Democratic campaign money
in 1948. but instead of sending it
to the Democratic National Com
mittee he asked Senator Holland,
Democrat, of Florida, to advise
him which Democratic Senators
needed help in their campaign.
He said one contribution went
to Senator Hunt and he thought
others went to Senators Green of
Rhode Island and johnson of
Colorado. He couldn't recall who
got the others.
Mr.. Caldwell said all the money
he collected was kept in a trust
fund and that he signed all the
checks sent out as trustee.

men and three foremen digging
a hole approximately three feet
| square"
On a project as large as this,
the newsman conceded, some loaf
ing and wasted effort is inevitable
But, he added, through a COM
pick workload index the closest
possible check is maintained on
each individuals productivity.
Sometimes unavoidable delays in
delivery OF materials or technical
problems may leave workers with
nothing to do temporarily, Mr.
IShockley observed, but careful
planning and double checking keep
such instances at a minimum.
Employees who delay work with
out just cause are not tolerated
he asserted, adding:
Those who do choose to dc
this end up as did four electri-
clans yesterday morning who were
fired for holding up progress on
a certain job"
Similar wedding out of unpro-
ductive employees occurs every
week. he said.
| Although Dupont is doing the
building, the Acc keeps a small
corps of specialists on the project
THE Acc keeps an accurate
check on costs at the project
through its finance division" Mr.
Shockley wrote. This division
actually exercises supervision over
costs and expenditures by employ
ing the commercial cost account
ing method. This accurate system
assures the Acc that it is getting
its dollars worth from procure
ment onto the finished job"
All Phases Double Checked
Every phase of development at
the project is checked and re-
checked by engineers or other spe-
clallsts before estimates of needs
III materials ana manpoWer are
fixed. Then, said Mr.. Shockley
these estimates are run through
the mill again to see if they can't
be reduced.
Neither the Acc nor the Dupont
company advises job applicant
whether he must or must not join
a union, Mr.. Schockley said.
The newsman said his investiga-
ton showed Rep. Wheelen never
actually filled out an application
blank for a carpenters job. He
also reported that the Carpen.
ters' Union initiation fee is, and
has been for IL years, $50, and not
$lO8 as the Congressman said.
In the MAN," Mr.. Shockley
wrote, This reporter found that
charges of large scale loaf1ng ano
waste on the Savannah River
are without foundation"
He added that officials of both
the Acc and Dupont said they
would welcome any congressional

AUGUSTA, Ga, Sept. 22.-Is
there large scale waste and loaf
ing at the Governments gigantic
Savannah River H-bomb plant
project, or is it a streamlined op-
Grafton with maximum efficiency?
A Georgia congressman and q
Georgia neWspaperman give con-
fiictlng reports on the billion
dollar defense project.
Representative Wheeler, Demo-
crat, of Georgia, reported he
toured the plant dressed in over

standing around" He termed ii
a "WPA sort of thing" The Con-
gresham this week introduced
a resolution to set up a seven-man
House committee. to investigate
working conditions at all defense
plants, particularly those Of the
Atomic Energy Commission.
Stopped Only Once.
Mr.. Wheeler said that during
his wandering over the huge
plant, now under construction
he was stopped only at Offices
where paper work was going on
And. he added. when he applied
for a job as a carpenter, he was
told he would have to drive q
miles to Augusta and pay $108 tt
join a union.
After Mr.. Wheeler's criticisms
by Ray Shockley, state editor o1
the Augusta Chronicle, toured the
project and described it as 9
well organized operation with 8
minimum Of lost motion.
Mr.. Shockley chided Repre-
sentative Wheeler for his accu.
Sations. declaring the Congress-
man did not enter closely guarded
areas where the real work is
going on" The newsman said
Representative Wheeler rejected
an offer to be taken into the
major portions of the plant ano
observed only work done in fringe
areas
The Du Pont Co. is building the
plant for the Acc. The govern
ment will pay actual cost of con-
Struction. The Du Pont Co. viii

"As for waste" said Mr.. Shock
ley, THE Du Pont Co. is using
the same methods of efficiency al
are being used in its plants al
over the nation. Labor saving
time saving and money saving de-
vices are being used all over the
project by the 1900 workers now

To increase economy, Mr.. Shock.

the project is being financed, not
by Du Pont, but the workers owr

Ividual incomes which was adopted
by the House, with rates to bt
made effective November /, 1851

1 Another amendment would re-
store the withholding provisions

Likelihood of further Interrupt
tons"
Gen. Ridgway continued:
Since you are now ready tC
terminate the suspension of ar
mistice talks which you declared
on % August, my liaison officers
will be at the bridge of Pannun-
JON at 1000 hours on "a September
to meet your liaison officers and
to discuss conditions mutually
satisfactory for a resumption OF
the armistice talks"
Pannunjom is the Communist
checkpoint on the eastern rim of
the Kaesong neutral zone.
Earlier, today the Red China
Peiping radio called attention to
Gen. Ridgway's delay in replying
and accused him of pulling "a
new United Nations trick"
Ridgway Speaks Bluntly.
Gen. Ridgway was blunt in
blaming the Communists for the
breakdown in the armistice talks
He rejected all the Communist
claims of United Nations viola
tions of the neutral zone except
the two which the U. N. admitted
! One was an accidental Strafing
and the other was an unintendeC
entry into the neutral zone by g
South Korean medics' team.
I Gen. Ridgway referred to the
Communist message of Thursday
and declared:
your suggestion therein that
there are instances of alleged vio-
lations of the Kaesong neutra.
zone which remain unsettled il
rejected. Each of the several cases
wherein you reported an alleged
violation was fully investigated.
The supreme Allied commander
said that the Communists were
advised of every case where Unit
ed Nations forces were not in
volved and the cases were
closed"
Won't Reopen Old Charges.
Il have so instructed my repre-
ISentatives," he added, making
plain he had no intention of re-
opening discussions on the alleged
violations.
Il likewise rejected the charge
in your letter that the alleged
violations of the neutral zone by
IU.N. forces made it impossible to
continue the negotiations.
"The responsibility for the un-
necessary interruption in the arm
1Stlce conference is yours"
Other than arranging the ac-
tual meeting for tomorrow, Gen
Ridgway's message differed little
from the one he sent the Com
munist high command on August
IT. Even the wording was al
most the same.
In that one, Gen. Ridgway told
the Reds he was still prepared
to order my liaison officers to q
meeting at the bridge at Pan
munjom." Today's message was
mild in tone, in keeping with re-
cent message exchanges.
Ever since the Reds proposed re-
sumption of the talks, there has
been growing optimism that 9
cease-fire ultimately could be ar
ranged.
Gen. Ridgway took his time in
working on his answer yesterday
Possibly he wished to let the Reds
sweat it out"
The fact that the Reds askec
for the talks led some observers
IN Tokyo to believe the Com
munistS want a quick armistice
Another winter campaign in
Korean would be costly for the
already hard-hit Communists.
