said that Mr.. Caudle stressed
"persuasively, to the subcommit-
tee"-that these interventions by
attorneys and also by members OF
Congress involved no direct i'm
propriety."
Caudle Bypassed.
The subcommittee cited a num-
ber of cases in which Mr.. Caudle
was bypassed in the Justice De-
partment. In one of these, the
Rips Mitchell case in Alabama,
the subcommittee said that it is
of the opinion that charges thai
Mr.. Caudle and Representative
Boykin, Democrat. of Alabama,
intervened were "unwarranted.' =
1t added that the Intervention OF
Mr.. Ford in the case "as in other
instances. was unjustified and i'm
proper"
The report noted that Mr.
Caudle complained that he was
sometimes attacked in the press
for what he characterized as halt
truth" In this connection it was
mentioned that he was sharply
criticized for delaying the tax
prosecution of Warning and Beard
The subcommittee said the facts
and evidence in these cases were
genuinely shaky' and added:
1T can be fairly argued that
losing criminal cases in open
court against notorious lawbreak-
ers like Warning and Beard is
more harmful to the cause OF
good law enforcement than with
holding prosecution altogether.

and $4,000 from persons inter-
ested in cases before him. How
'honorably motivated' can one
man get?"
Mr.. Rogers said the subcom-
mittee for days permitted Mr..
Caudle to "relate every suspicion,
rumor and gossip in Washington"
and blamed everyone but Caudle. u
Refers to Mink Coat.
Mr.. Rogers, in his statement,
referred to a mink coat bought
by Mr.. Caudle's wife through an
attorney having tax cases pend
ing, and his acceptance of a S.
900 commission on the sale OF
an airplane.
Both matters were brought out
a year ago when Mr.. Caudle tes-
titled before the House Ways and
Means subcommittee investigat-
ing tax scandals. This subcommit-
tee disclosed that the man through
whom the $4,000 commission was
paid was interested in a fraud
case involving two New York
taxpayers.
The subcommittee in its report
reviewed Mr.. Caudle's Washing
ton career from the time he came
from his position as a United
States attorney in North Carolina
to become Assistant Attorney
General in charge of the Justice
Departments Criminal Division
soon after Mr.. Clark became At
torney General.

Saying that he had "the naive
code of a country lawyer" which
did not serve him we'll in the
.corrupting sophistication Of the
Washington he knew" the SUBJ
committee added that he made
errors Of judgement, some OF
which played their part in de-
stroying public confidence in the
Government he served" and that
he swallowed more in the name
,of personal loyalty than any man
should stomach"
The report added:
But Caudle never sold himself
for riches or for power. If, indeed
he so much as skirted the edges
of venality and corruption, he did
more soul-searching about it than
many of his associates who have
emerged with unscathed reputa-
tions. And in every instance
where the choice was clearly
black or white, Caudle'S choice
appears to have been impeecably
correct.
THE career of this man, from
his start as an eager young United
States attorney to his final de-
mise as scapegoat, is the most
accurate reflection of decay within
the Justice Department that the
subcommittee has come upon"

Three Political Groups
Unite 10 Fight Ma|an
On White Supremacy
BY the Associated Press


CAPETOWN, South Africa, April
'17.-Three angry political groups
formed a united front last night
against Prime Minister Daniel
Malan's plan to keep courts from
upsetting his stringent white su-
premacy program. The groups
asserted they will use force if DR..
Malan does.
Together in the new front were
the United Party, DR.. Malan's big
gest legislative foe: the Labor
Party and the Torch Commands,
an organization intent on knock
ing DR.. Malan's nationalist gov
ernment out of office.
The three groups proclaimed
their front at a mass meeting in
Capetown City Hall, where j. G. N.
Strauss. parliamentary leader of
the United Party, declared they
intend Ito fight for restoration of
democratic government in South
Africa"
Mr.. Strauss indicated a belief
the Prime Minister'S followers
might attempt to stir up incidents
to excuse government use of force
to strengthen the nationalist grip
on the country.
Our struggle is against self
seeking politicians who are abus-
ing their powers =. in a desperate
attempt to entrench themselves in
power" said the declaration es-
tablishing the united front.
The declaration followed ad-
I Ijournment of a hot parliamentary
/ debate on DR.. Malan's intention
to give his legislative majority au-
Ithority over the nations courts.
His nationaliSts hold Ill of the
207 seats in the Senate ard House
of Assembly. but the courts have
ruled that South Africa's basic
law can be changed only by a
tWo-thirds majority of both
houses sitting together, not just
a simple majority.

after the appeals court, South

strates again the preoccupation with the peace

take full advantage of its opportunity for serving
the cause of culture among more than a thousand

where the warmongering psychology has prompt
ed our Government to limit our stations to

scarcely more than 67 per cent of the homes of

privileged today to own sets.

a way may soon be found to transmit the in

Contest Over German Youth

For three years one of the most i'm
portant phases Of the cold war between
Russia and the United States has been
the contest over German youth. Russia
has exerted herself to the uttermost.
She has sought to show in an engaging
manner that the Communist rule full
f1lls the desires and the ambitions Of
growing boys and girls. Her efforts
have extended far beyond her rationed
zone Of Germany. "'
To underestimate the effect OF all this
would be foolish in the extreme. To
counteract it insofar as possible is of
the highest Importance. 3s1 80
The principal agency working on be-
half Of our people and our Government
in the struggle to win the German youth
has been the G. Y. A.-the German
Youth Assistance Program inaugurated
by our Army. 1t has done valuable serv-
ice and has achieved real results, but
much remains to be accomplished.
The 10 Youth Centers established by
G. Y. A. are Mecca for 300, 900 boys and
girls each month. These youngsters at
an impressionable age are thus given
a real picture of American life. Amer

can draw their own contrasts as between
the American way and totalitarian

Aside from a small amount set aside
from counterpart funds for rent and
the employment of limited personnel,
there is no appropriation for G. Y. A.
Out Of their own pay our officers and
enlisted men in the American Zone of
Germany have contributed a large part
Of the money necessary to maintain the
centers. The need is very great. It
embraces large assortment of articles

contributions have been those he has made as

This background offers good evidence that Mr.

one OF those who have been instrumental in per-
suading him to take on the job has been Gen.
