Republicans Reluctant
To Exploit Issue Of
Communists in CIA

Republicans seemed to be re-
luctant today to attempt to make
any political capital out of Gen.
Walter Bedell Smiths statement
about Communist infiltration Of
the Central Intelligence Agency.
AS the latest furor in the 1852
presidential campaign eased off. +.
it became evident, however, that
Congress would look into the
statements by the head Of this
country's top intelligence Office.
Chairman Wood Of the House
Committee on Un-American Ac-
tivities announced that it had de-
cided to call Gen. Smith to ap-
pear before 1t October 13 in Phil
adelphia. In Los Angeles, Mr..
Wood said the committee had
voted unanimously to have Gen.
Smith testify on Communist
infiltration into Government
agencies.
McCarran Statement.
Senator McCarran, Democrat.
Of Nevada, in a statement issued
through his Office here, said the
generals statement "emphaSizes
the fact that communism great
est threat to this Nation is from
within our borders"
Senator McCarran is chairman
Of the Senate Internal Security
Subcommittee which has been ex-
ploring many aspects of Com
munist activity in the United
States. Often at odds with the
administration, he took slap at
those advocating less emphasis on
the Communist in Government is
sue by declaring:
"The attribudng of political mo-
tives to all those that seek ex-
posure Of Communist in Govern
ment Is a very dangerous
thing"
General Changes Plans.
Yesterday Gen. Eisenhower was
reported planning to press the
issue in future speeches. But after
Gen. Smith had read his ampli-
flying statement to the candidates.
an Eisenhower aide said the gen.
eral would not do anything to en-
danger the security Of the country
or of the intelligence agency.
Republican leaders appeared to
take a long second look at what
some of them thought would be a
rousing campaign issue before Gen.
Smith amplif1ed the statements he
made Monday. He said he must
assume there were Communists in
his own department and all other
of this country's security agencies.
But he added he did not actually
know of any Communists in the
CIA.
From Democratic leaders as well
as Republicans came statements
indicating a feeling that the CIA
should not be draw into the cross

1t was his melting sensation at her warmth
that made Ferris annoyed. Why should he be
irritated at the impatience of a lovely, fine
young woman to whom he expected to be
engaged? Underlying that, in his present
state of mind, was the wonder that he should
ever feel annoyed at Ty Bakers daughter,

he was standing with the receiver, feeling
somewhat foolish. From the open windows
the bleating of taxis on Fifth Avenue derided
him; as if in challenge Ferris dropped the
telephone and strobe across the room. Until
he heard Tom Mullen's sharp knock and
hearty entrance he did not realize he stood
there for several minutes with hand clamped
tightly at the back of his neck, staring at the
crawling traffic in anger directed generally at

start of a visit, Hammond

StdI Vi d NlSll, I1dlluIlOlIO
Ferris told himself as the tanscontinental
train dived for the tunnel beneath Grand Cen
trail Station. The big town never seemed
impressed by his progress between visits. This
time he had thought it would be different.
Perhaps his nervousness wasn't because of
his obvious uneasiness as a new Senator from
the West Tom Mullen, the old political
reporter who was his secretary, did not defect
the uneasiness with old Tom along, you'll
be okay," they told Ferris. But this New
York stop was Toms doing, and on the train
Ferris found Mullen's stream of advice was
actually increasing his - yes, tirnidity. That
was the word, Ferris admitted, although dis
tastefully; it reminded him of a rabbit "freez-
ing behind sparse sagebush.
The mirror in his Pullman bedroom had
assured him that he did not look like rabbit,
but rather like a tall young man turned
thirty, with competent shoulders who might
be ready for all Toms suggestions "One or
two men you ought to see before we hit
Washington" Mullen had way of indicating
powerful names without mentioning them, a
trick of the left eyebrow and significant gaze.
HAMMoND's habitual Manhattan tension
wasn't loosened by the insistent ringing as he
entered his suite at the hotel. He dived for
the phone ahead of the boy, more to throttle
it than to answer That the voice was Sylvia
Bakers was not surprising; what startled
Ferris was the absence of long-distance
operator wanting to identify him. 1nvolun-
tarily he exclaimed: You're here in town,
Sylvia!''
Really! You don't sound as if it's
pleasant surprise" she sighed. 'You do have
Fathers ways. For instance, not liking the
unexpected"

Remember when you were doing column
for Ty's paper?" Mullen reminded You got
a big offer from the feature syndicate, but
you said Ty picked you out of the sagebrush
and sent you to college, so it wouldn't be
right to leave"
THAT was my decision" Ferris replied
"Ty said knew instinctively my future was
out there He was right, wasn't hep
''You see? You contradict yourself. Was it
your instinct wondering if you'll be happy
with Sylvia, because after all she's a projec-
ton of Ty's -" Mullen stopped, crushing
out his cigarette. That shouldn't be- So

while" !" He wadded up the schedule sheet and
fired it at the waste basket Let's call it a
holiday tonight, take Sylvia to dinner and
meantime just mosey around town with

Ferris got to his feet grinmng. Who'd
think protege of old Ty's would be prima
donna? But aren't you afraid I'll get into
trouble? You gave me lecture on the train
about being seen buttonholed by the wrong
man in the wrong place"
Mullen clapped him on the shoulder Just

and hotel lobbies" He tempered his laughter
into sly SMILE why not take look at the
United Nations buildings over on the East
River at the end of Forty-second Street?

Technology for the building. ''You said keep
away from crossroads. -"
AGAIN Ferris found that even when Mullen
made suggestion lightly it was considered
one. YOU'RE not likely to encounter any
enemy wheel-horses down there, and if some
of your constituency have got curious about
it too, while in New York, no harm in being
equally curious, is there?"

reassuringly and sat on the bed, waiting.

protested. His expression came near sus-

with Sylvia because she's old Ty's daughter?"
Mullen laughed gently. 'Of course not,

Premier Mohammed Mossadegh
complained he interfered in Trans
