Judge Morris Insists
On Detailed Evidence
In Subversion Case
By Howard l. Dutkin

The Government must present
detailed evidence as to why certain
organizations were listed as sub
versive before legality Of its ac-
tions in this respect can finally
be determined, District Judge
James w. Morris ruled yesterday.
Judge Morris ruling was con-
tanned in an opinion rejecting a
Justice Department motion which
asked that an injunction suit
against it brought by three groups
on the subversive list be thrown
out.
The juriSt also rejected motion
by the three organizations for a
temporary injunction pending de-
termination of the suit for per-
manent Injunction on its merits.
Organizations Involved.
The organizations involved, who
are seeking to have their names
removed from the list are: Joint
Anti-FaScist Refugees Committee,
international Workers Order, Inc,
National Council of American
Soviet Friendship.
The groups had contended they
were listed illegally in that they
had been granted no notice or
hearing before the Government
acted.
Judge Morris refused to rule on
this aspect of the case. He cited
q Supreme Court action on the
same issue which he interpreted
as putting the issue in the lap of
District Court once the District
Court has chance to delve into
the exact reasons why the organi-
cations were placed on the list.
Commenting on the issue of a
hearing, Judge Morris wrote
THAT court (Supreme Court) did
not see fit to deal with that ques-
ton then, and see no reason why
this court should deal with it now
before it has an opportunity to
examine into the factual basis
upon which the designations Qist-
1ng) complained of were made" "
Probe Methods Outlined.
In its plea for a summary judg-
ment in its favor to throw out the
complaint, the Government had
asserted that the organizations
were labeled subversive after ap-
propriate investigation.
Aff1davitS from high Justice De-
partment officials filed at the time
Of the method of investigation
but declared national security
would not permit disclosure of
certain confidential information
or detailed evidence.
Judge Morris based his reason
for denying the organizations a
temporary injunction on the
ground that the groups had
already allegedly suffered Sub
stantially all of the injury" which
they claim resulted from the
action of the Government.
1T does not appear" the Judge
wrote, that injunctive relief, If
now granted. would or could af-
ford them the protection which
injunctive relief is ordinarily in
tended to afford"
The opinion leaves the case
open for trial on its merits to de-
eide if q permanent injunction
should be- granted. Under the
ruling. the Government, appar-
emily. would have to present con-
crete evidence against the organ
iZationS at the trial.

STORM RACES
over LAKE;
NO MISHAPS

Hundreds of small and large
craft raced for safety when a
vicious northwest storm lashed
Lake, Erie at twilight Monday.
High winds and drenching
rains whipped the lake violently,
with seas spraying clear over
launches, whose shippers sped
their motors through heavy
breakers for safety in the Por-
tage river basin.
One small craft, last to make
harbor, had been feared lost
when it went out of sight within
mile of shore. Winds had blown
it out in the lake but after an
hours struggle the unidentified
skipper won the battle with the
elements.
Plane service was grounded,
leaving a number of holiday Wis
itors stranded at Put-In-Bay un-
til the storm subsidized and they
were able to board ferry boats.

Capitol Dome Painting
Dispute Continues

Negotiations in the dispute over
who is going to paint the Capitol
Dome continued today in the face
of a Senate abor-Managemeht
Relations subcommittee hearing
coming up on the matter tomor-
row or Thursday.
Bryce P. Holcombe, national
organizer of the AFL Painters
Union. said he would seek to meet
today with L. r. Brown, the con-
tractor who holds the contract,
Capitol Architect David Lynn and
a representative of the subcom-
mitttee, to continue efforts to set
tie the dispute. The dispute arose
because Mr.. Brown does not have
union painters on his force.
Mr.. Brown says he is willing
to pay the union wage rates for
the area, but wishes to negotiate
further on other clauses of the
contract offered by the union. He
also is seeking to have the Gov
ernment pay an additional 81, 300
to cover the difference between
the union rates and the nonunion
labor costs on which his original
contract for the painting job was
based.
Mr.. Holcombe also announced
that, whether or not the dispute
was settled before the Subcom-
mittee hearing is scheduled, he
will try to have it held anyway
with a view to clarifying labor
policies for work done on the
Capitol.

Brief Glimpse
Of Sun Breaks
6Ddys Of Rain
Freak Conditions
Won't Be Cleared
Until Tomorrow

Alert observers caught a quick
glimpse of the sun today for the
first time in nearly a week, but
the Weather Bureau gave no hope
for a more brilliant display before
tomorrow.
After five days of almost con-
tinuouS rain, skies that refused to
be Wrung dry continued today
the SiXth-to ooze drizzle-fashio
Total rainfall for the period now
has reached 3.91 inches.
The long siege may start crum-
bling this afternoon, and tomorrow
the sun should make a longer
appearance, the Weather Bureau
said.
Bureau Explains Freak.
Bureau experts blamed the
freakish conditions on the ex-
tremely high altitude of the stuff
that makes for rain. Instead of
the normal height of 10000 or
$4,000 feet, the low pressure belt
pushed up about 10000 feet.
Thus it was slower in movement,
and much more erratic-"like the
end of timber pole weaving
around"
The rainy period also was COM
plicated by the fact that first there
was a movement of colder wet air
from the north, and when that
had about played out, a mass of
moisture moved up from the south.
As Hours With No Break.
Although the rainy spell has
continued we'll over 100 hours, the
Weather Bureau has made allow
ances for breaks of up to three
hours in computing records. The
longest official steady rain was
the 46 hours and Al minutes be-
ginning at 9:39 am. Saturday.
Fear of flood damage in the
immediate vicinity has abated.
The Potomac has overflown above
Chain Bridge, causing some in
convenience to river-edge dwellers.
Continued high waters are ex-
pected for several days.
Maryland and Virginia reported
the closing of some State roads
and damage to highways, base
ments, gardens and some winter

Slash in Natural Gas
Buying Rates Here
Ordered by FPC

The Federal Power Commission
today ordered a reduction in the
wholesale rates the Washington
Gas Light Co. must pay for the
natural gas it sells to its GUS
toners.
But, no immediate benefit to
the gas company will occur be-
cause of the complications Of the
proceedings before the FPC. The
findings were in a long pending
case involving two subsidiaries of
the Columbia Gas System. The
system sells the natural gas to
the local firm.
The cost of gas to the Wash
ington firm has gone up twice
recently-once last September and
again last month. Estimates are
that it will cost the company an
additional $2.5 million year.
These increases are one of the
used by the gas COM
pany in winning a boost in its
rates to local customers. The Dis
trict Public Utilities Commission
granted an II per cent increase.
The FPC said the rates put into
effect by the Columbia System for
Washington Gas Light Co. last
should be reduced by
$811 900. The Columbia System
has been collecting those rates
under bond, so that if the FPC
ruled against it a refund could be
made.
The increase put into effect last
also is being collected
under bond. Final FPC decision
on that increase is yet to be made.
The Columbia System was or
dered to file, within Is days, new
gas rate schedules to conform with
the FPC order. A number of other
companies in addition to the
Washington Gas Light Co. are
served by the Columbia System.

Maryland Enjoys Chance to Grasp The Hand

He spoke for a recorded radio
broadcast. In the presidential
suite of the Emerson he talked
privately with campaign workers
and by telephone to his headquar-
ters in Washington.
Off to Frederick.
Then he beat the pavements,
pumping hands and influencing
voters. After an hour his motor
Icade left for Frederick behind
|Wailing sirens. The party stopped
in midafternoon at Edmonson
Village. There, too, people found
themselves shaking hands with a
man who said, I'm Senator Ke-
fauver. I'm glad to see you and
I hope ="
The Senator reached Frederick
shortly after S pm. He went to
work again. While he changed
clothes his suite was thronged.
Downstairs 500 persons assembled
for dinner.
Maryland's retiring Democratic
Senator, Herbert r. O'Conor, was
on hand to introduce him. The
two Democrats who hope to Sue
coed Senator O'Conor were there,
too. But Representative Lansdale
G. Sasscer and George P. Maho-
ney were separated at the speak
ers' table. Candidates for the
House mingled with the party
faithful.
Senator Kefauver had fine
things to say about Jefferson,
Jackson. the Democratic Party,
his colleagues in Congress, the
turkey dinner, the toastmaster
and Western Maryland. The
crowds cheered as he visited each
of three dining rooms. They liked
what he said about the "re-invig-
GRATED party" They liked him,
too.

Weary but dauntless. he went
to Hood College for another big
meeting. He was still for the
party of jefferson and jackson
and still opposed to organized
Icrime.
He was also under pressure to
get home. He had to meet the
family and take off for Florida to
convince voters there why he
should be nominated for the
presidency.
Estes Kefauver won a lot of
friends yesterday with a sincere,
friendly approach. AS Mayor

Old Cosmos Club Urged
For Federal Workers Use

Representative Wier, Democrat,
of Minnesota, today introduced a
bill to turn the Cosmos Club
building, Madison place and Fiji
teenth street NV, into a recrea-
ton headquarters for Federal and
District government workers.
Mr.. Wier, a member Of the
House Education and Labor Com
mittee, said the Government was
far behind private industry in af-
fording recreation to its employees.
He argued also that Washington
has lots of clubs for "the elite
and well-born," but lacks such
facilities for Government workers.
His bill would create a COM
mission of Federal officials to take
charge of the proposed headquar-
terS,
