Orders
F federal Prosecutors
To LIST Outside Work
Officials Told to Report
If Attempts Were Made
To Influence Cases
By james {. Roper

Attorney General McGranery
today ordered all United States
attorneys to report on how much
time they spend on outside work.
He also instructed the attorneys
to report on each case in their
offices-how the case originated,
how it was disposed of and wheth-
er any outsiders tried to influence
the outcome.
Mr.. McGranery gave the orders
to 81 Federal prosecutors during
"a blunt speech at the Justice De-
partment. Then he and the attor-
'neys began three days of closed
conferences.
Mr.. McGranery told the attor-
neys they must carry out a pro-
gram of "alert, fair and vigorous
prosecution to protect the
Integrity of the Government"
Starting With Own Offices.
He said the attorneys must give
special attention to wrong doing
in the Government, crime syndi=
Gates and subversives.
But the Attorney General de-
manded the first inquiry be aimed
at the Offices of the prosecuting
attorneys themselves. This was
a milder form of the controversial
QUESTIONABLE which the ousted
cleanup director, Newbold Nor
ris wanted Government officials
to answer.
Mr.. McGranery's predecessor
j. Howard McGrath, fired Mr.
Morris and President Truman in
turn fired Mr.. McGrath. Today's
conference was called to allow Mr.
McGranery to get acquainted with
his prosecutors stationed through
out the country.
Calls for Files Since 1947.
Mr.. McGranery said that BY
June q, every United States at
torney and his assistant must re-
port how much time he spends on
Government business and how
much on outside work. No law
bars an attorney from handling
outside law cases provided he gives
first attention to his Government
job and does not take part in a
private case involving the Gov
ernment.

torneys to dig up their files ON all

Mr.. Barrett said his decision
was based upon the constitution
al rights of being a witness
against myself"
Attorney Charles E. Ford OBJ
served that Mr.. Barrett's tax re-
turns are being examined by the
Federal Internal Revenue Bureau,
adding that he advised the former
chief against responding to any
questions bearing upon finances.
Hearings Adjourned.
The committee thereupon ad-
journed all hearings which have
been going on for five months.
Earlier, the probers undertook
to AK responsibility on Mr.. Barrett
for the conduct of several subor-
dinates now under fire. They
brought out that he supervised
the police narcotics squad for the
last 10 years of his administration.
and failed to discipline 1t. H. H.
Carper, the squad chief who is
under indictment and suspension,
for reported dereliction of duty.
The retired superintendent
blamed his successor Maj. Robert
v. Murray and Inspector Robert
Bryant for his decision to take no
action against 1t. Carper, after a
study Of complaints involving
Carper.
Most of the special hearing to-
day was devoted to questions OF
Mr.. Barrett's supervision of the
narcotics squad and two inspectors
recently suspended after failing to
explain their finances to the Sem
ators. There are Albert I. Bullock
and Beverley c. Beach.
When the probers turned to the
former chiefs finances. they ran
into firm resistance and the hear
ing was terminated abruptly.
Previous Testimony Questioned.
Chairman Nicely asked Mr.. Bar
rett about previous testimony he
had given concerning $4,000 he
said he had obtained from his
mother. Senator Nicely read part
of the transcript of a former hear
ing in which the former chief was
questioned about the transaction.
Last January, Mr.. Barrett told
the committee he once obtained
$4,000, which his mother took from
a paper bag in an unlocked drawer
in her unlocked home at 813 Sixth
street NE.
The Senator asked Mr.. Barrett
If, in view of the record of crime
in Washington at that time. he
still felt it was prudent for Mrs.
Barrett to keep money in that
fashion.
Mr.. Barrett said, II decline to
answer that on the grounds of
testifying against myself" This
exchange followed:
Attorney Charles E. Ford-May
I advise the committee that I
have in my hands. that I am go
ing to submit official statements
from Internal Revenue that his
entire income tax returns are now
under investigation by the bureau.
There also have been statements
in the press that all material be
turned over to the District tax
assessor for investigation. From
that time until now, they are so
doing.

stand that as of this time you are
refusing to answer any questions

change working conditions as well
as provide "just compensation" to
steel management.
Mr.. Truman's appearance at the
joint session was hastily arranged
in mid-morning. He acted after
the collapse last night of White
House efforts to end the eight
day strike in settlement of the
long steel wage dispute.
Taft Act Use Opposed.
Mr.. Truman argued strongly
against use of the Taft-Hartley
Act 80-day injunction process as a
means of ending the strike. He
said this approach would be "un-
wise, unfair and quite possibly in
effective" He pointed out that
the coal miners successfully de-
fed a similar injunction during
a 1850 strike.
But if Congress insists on use Of
injunction against strike, Mr.. Tru-
man asked for legislation which
would enable him to get a court
order Immediately. Taft-Hartley
machinery provides for a report
from special fact-f finding board
before an injunction may be re-
quested.
Stressing the Importance Of
ending the strike quickly, the
President said:
"The issue for peace or war
hankgs in the balance and steel
Is vital element in the outcome"
Mills Seized April 8.
Mr.. Truman seized the strike
threatened steel mills April 8. But
the Supreme Court a week ago
struck down the action on the
grounds it was unconstitutional.
That seizure was made without
specific authority in law.
Mr.. Truman said Congress
should act with three objectives
in mind.
l. To secure essential steel pro-
duction.
2. To assure fair treatment to
both the steel companies and
steel workers.
3. To encourage the parties to
settle their differences through
collective bargaining.
He said these objectives can
best be attained through a law
which would provide for lust
compensation to the owners for
the use of their property during
"a seizure. and fair and just COM
pensation for the work of the
employees"
Owners Rights Protected.
He pointed out that the Con-
stitution protects the rights Of
owners under Government oper-
alton.
In order to be fair, Mr.. Truman
continued, any seizure law should
protect the rights of the workers
as well. He said that changes in
wages and working conditions
Should not be barred under seizure.
He said that fair treatment to
both parties can be assured by
establishment of special boards
