Maryland May Droft
10 -Yeor-OId Youths
BY the Assceiotsd Press

BALTIMORE, Jan. 25.-Mary-
land draft boards may call up
some 20-year-old youths during
February despite a Washington
directive to avoid where possible
drafting persons under 81.
Col. Henry c. Stanwood, State
selective service director. said the
policy at both the Federal and
State levels has been to take older
men first, land until now only a
very few Marylanders under 81
years have been drafted"
However. it was necessary to
dip down into the lower age group
to meet the February call for ap-
proximately 900 inductees," Col.
Stanwood said.

COP. Move eiorProbe
OF McGrath Gets Some
Democratic Support
BY The Associated Press

Some Democratic sentiment was
reported today for a limited"
congressional investigation Of At
torney General McGrath.
This word came from both Re
publican and Democratic sources
as the House Judiciary Committee
put over until next Tuesday its
final decision on a Republican
backed resolution to spotlight
Justice Department activities.
The committee has before it a
proposal by Representative Keat-
ing, Republican, of New York to
inquire into what he charges are
Justice Department failures to
prosecute criminal cases. and into
charges of influence and ia
voritism." a. sss $ $

Mr.. McGraths has been desig-
mated by Mr.. Truman to direct a
campaign aimed at, cleaning out
any wrongdoers in the Federal
Government. Some Republicans,
Mr.. Keating among them, contend
that Mr.. McGrath himself should
be investigated rather than be
placed in charge of a cleanup
drive. ...

Gratis would go in backing an
investigation of President Tru-

clear.
But some Democratic members

make case" and prove it is no
fishing expedition"
The same view was reported by
several committee Republicans.
Mr.. Keating said he was confident
some Democrats probably will
vote for the resolution"
Keating Wants Full Probe.
The question appeared to rest
on the extent Of the inquiry. Mr..
Keating wants a full-scale inves-
|tigation, and yesterday said he
presented nearly a dozen cases in
volving "misfeasance or NAL
feasance, or BOTH" in support OF
his proposal.
AS an alternative, at least one
Republican was prepared to offer
a resolution limiting the inquiry
to certain specific cases-pin-
pointing the inquiry to geographic
cal locations, such as Justice De-
partment activities in the tax
scandals at st. Louis and San
Francisco. This might be accept

The charges came over efforts
by Chairman Celler to hear Joseph

Mr.. Heating called it ''highly

called it an effort to kill the in

MIR. Keating said his presenta-
ton to the committee involved
allegations concerning the han
ding Of alien property, irnmigra-

In another development, Repre-
sentative Bramblett, Republican,
of California made public later a
letter to Mr.. McGrath asking the
appointment Of Charles O'Gara of
San Francisco to head the Gov
ernment's cleanup drive.
AS the Judiciary Committee
argued the matter, Representative

told the House that Max Lowen-

widespread program Federal Jobs Government
workers who lose their positions through
to the Civil Service Commission
by the Federal Personnel Council
council advisory the commission
Evening star., 1952-01-25

The council feels that Federal
employees who may lose their jobs
need more help in getting new
jobs than the present program
gives them.
One of the most important OF
the councils proposals is that the
commission not permit new en-
ployes to be brought into the
Government when experienced
career employees are available.
This has long been advocated
by a group of progressive person.
mel officials in Government, but it
was not until now that their views
were adopted.
Among the councils other pro-
posals for the career rehiring pro-
gram were these:
l. Close co operation among
agencies so that. when a bureau
has a surplus of employees. it can
arrange for the transfer OF those
it no longer needs to other agen-
cies that can use them. This
would facilitate the orderly alb
sorption of employees released from
their jobs without requiring the
of present employees
who are rendering satisfactory
service.
2. Career employees who lose
their jobs will be eligible for one
wear for unemployment without
loss of status or tenure and. dur
ling that year, will be entitled to
uniform benefits (retiremen MT
leave, service credit, etc..
The council also asked the
commission to work out pro-
lcedures whereby the services OF
these employees may be better
brought to the attention Of the
various Government departments
and agencies. For example, 1t was
pointed out that one way this
could be done would be to ofier
the employees name to various
Civil Service Boards Of Examiners
which could best place him in one
of the vacancies for which 1t is
recruiting. The councils recon-
|mendations were drafted by a
committee headed by Rear Ad-
miral w. Mel. Hague, chief OF
Navy,s office Of industrial reia-
tions.

discover that our youngsters are painfully

between the ages of Is and Is were asked by
school psychologist to list the moral charges
that are most frequently made against teen

They scribbled them off in short order. The
offenses most often mentioned were crime,
narcotics, reckless driving and sexual delin-
quency. These four indictments constitute
the case against our teen-agers, as their par

- see it.
