McCarran 10 Seek
More Powers in Hunt
For Reds in u. n.
BY the AssoeIoted Press

NEW YORK, Dec. 27.-The
Senate Internal Security subcom-
mittee probably will seek in
creased powers in it's hunt for
any subversive United States en-
ployes of the United Nations. Sen
ator Pat McCarran. Democrat. of
Nevada, said yesterday.
Senator McCarran, chairman of
the group, urged this move in an
nouncing that the subcommittee
was temporarily thwarted and
halted in its recent hearings in
New York.
The basic problem. said Senator
McCarran in a statement, is the
State Departments refusal to give
the subcommittee the names of
department officers who evalu-
ated United States citizens hired
by the United Nations.
Had 3 Evaluators.
"The subcommittee heard from
three high State Department Of
f1cials of an arrangement whereby
the State Department was sup
posed to warn the U. N. of the
bad security risks in the secre-
tariat." Senator McCarran said.
"The evaluations made by the
State Department were shown
to be as faulty and so defective
from a security standpoint as
prima facie to justify, if not re-
quire. interrogations to determine
II they were made as a result
of subversive influence.
Names Withheld.
Accordingly, the subcommit-
tee asked the State Department
officials for the names of the
officers responsible for the evalu-
alton. They refused on the
grounds that the Secretary of
State had directed them to with
hold the names of the evaluation
officials.
Il am urging the subcommit-
tee to recommend to the United
States Senate that the Senate
reasSert its inherent powers under
the Constitution to compel the
production of documents and to
compel and direct an unequivocal
response to proper inquiries and
to punish for contempt"

Concessions on Laws
To Southern Backers
OF G. 0. P. Proposed
BY the Assoeiotsd Press

Southern State backing of Pres
ident-elect Eisenhower in the No,
vember 4 election should be re-
flected in his legislative proposals
to the new Congress. Senator
Republican. of South Da-
kota, said today.
In an interview, Senator Mundt
predicted the 83d Congress, which
convenes one week from today.
will reach its major decisions
through "a working combination
of Republicans and Southern DEM
ocrats."
Although the session will be-
Republican controlled, he said,
any legislation projected by Gen.
Eineshower must depend upon
support Of conservative Southern
Democrats"
If Senator Mundt is right-and
many members of the new Con-
greSs agree with him-any broad
civil rights measures, like Federal
anti-discrimination or fair en-
ployment practices commission.
would have as tough shedding as in
President Truman's administra-
tion.
Pioneer in Drive.
Senator Mundt's views attract
attention because he was a pioneer
as early as 1949 in the Repub-
lican drive for voting support in
the traditionally solid Democratic
South.
Gen. Eisenhower reaped a rich
vote harvest last month by carry
ing Texas, Florida, Virginia and
Tennessee in the presidential elec-
ton.
Senator Mundt said this politi-
cal fact should be reflected in the
Eisenhower legislative proposals.
For nearly four years the
actual majority in Congress has
cut across party lines" the Re-
publican Senator said. 1T has con-
sisted of Republicans and South
ern Democrats"
He added. speaking Of the
coming session:
"The margins in both the Sen
ate and House are so thin that
major decisions will depend upon
Democratic support"
Hairline Senate Majority.
Republicans will have a hairline
majority in the new Senate with
48 of the 96 seats. There are At
Democrats and one independent,
Senator Morse of Oregon.
In the House, there will be 221
Republicans. 211 Democrats, one
independent and two Democratic
vacancies.
Senator Mundt said a Repub-
can-Democratic coalition will de-
eide such major issues as the
depth Of tax reduction, sharp
economies in Federal spending,
and the all-important issues re-
garding Federal versus State or
local controls. including FEPC.
tidelands oil land ownership,
health and education programs.
Members of both parties in
Congress have been called to
separate caucuses in Washington
next Friday. when they will
choose their leaders. No serious
battles over organization are ex-
pected in either camp.
Apparently neither side sent a
notice to Senator Morse. who
bolted the G. o. P. to back the
Democratic election ticket but
who says he will vote with the Re-
publicans in organizing the new
Senate.
