Drew Pearson Denies
He Ordered Report 10
Justice on LitteI

Drew Pearson yesterday dis
claimed responsibility for re-
ports made to the Justice De-
partment that Norman M. Littell
had propagahdized in behalf of
the Dutch government.
Mr.. Pearson was testifying at
the trial of 100000 consolidated
libel and defamation suits filed
against him by Mr.. Littell, q
former Assistant Attorney Cen
eral under Francis Biddle.
Mr.. Littell asserts he was
libeled in a Pearson column
which stated that the Justice De-
partment was investigating re-
ports that Mr.. Littell was active
in behalf of the Netherlands
government. although not regis
tered as q foreign agent.
Earlier in the trial, it was
brought out that the Justice De-
partment had received reports
from other sources that Mrs.
Littell had introduced a repre-
sentative Of the Dutch 1nforma-
tion Bureau as a speaker before
the Women'S National Demo-
cratic Club here.
Complains Of Broadcast.
Mr.. Littell also asserts he was
DETAINED in q Pearson broadcast
which said that Mr.. Littell, then
an attorney for the Polish En-
bassy. had arranged to get Com
muniSt Polish officials aboard the
liner Batory ahead Of the United
States immigration agents in
veStigating the escape of Com
munist Gerhard Eisler in 1949.
At one point, speaking Of ef-
forts to get Polish representa-
tives aboard the Batory, Mr..
Pearson quoted Tom Clark, At
torney General at the time, as
telling him that Mr.. Littell was
frantic" to achieve his purpose.
During cross-examination by
Attorney Edward B. Williams,
Mr.. Pearson admitted that, dur
ing the taking of a deposition,
he had said he could not recall
details Of the conversation with
Mr.. Clark, now a Supreme Court
Justice.
The witness said that at the
time Of the deposition he didn't
want to testify as to that con-
versation with a man who is
now in the Supreme Court"
During the trial it has been
testified that a man identified
as Fred Blumenthal, said to have
been an employe of Mr.. Pear
son. had made the propaganda
charges against Mr.. Littell, to the
Justice Department.
May Have Volunteered.
Yesterday the columnist said
he did not authorize Mr.. Blu
menthal to volunteer any infor-
nation to the Justice Depart
ment. He said that the assistant
may have been an eager beaver,

nation"
The case is being heard before

By Ruth Dean

Erection of a bridge across the
Potomac River at e street was
opposed yesterday by the District
Federation of Women's Clubs in
q resolution adopted at its
monthly meeting in the Ward
man Park Hotel.
A bridge at the proposed
site, the federation maintained,
would jeopardize the conserva-
tion of the unspoiled wilderness
of Roosevelt Island, and would
cause an increase Of traffic from
the center Of the Nations Capt.
tai city.
At the same time, the fedora
ton heard Conrad L. Wirth, di-
rector Of the Interior Depart
ment's National Park Service.
list the proposed e Street Bridge
as one of the six problems now
facing the service.
Erection of the bridge would
do a tremendous amount of de-
struction to the central area Of
Washington" Mr.. Wirth de-.
clared. Furthermore" he said,
cit would go across Roosevelt
Island, which was given to the
Government with the under
standing its natural beauty
would always be preserved as a
memorial to Theodore Roose-
velt's efforts to conserve the nat
ural resources for all"
. The federation resolution was
introduced by Mrs. Elizabeth T.
Sullivan, director Of the legisla-
tion division of the department
of public affairs.
It recommended the building
of a bridge from Jones Point
at the southern end Of Alexan-
dria to a point in Prince Georges
County just outside the District
line, the bridge to be financed
by Government funds. It also
indorsed the proposed Nebraska
Avenue bridge between Key and
Chain bridges. which would
thereby complete the loop known
as "the intermediate ring around
the city" u
Mr.. Wirth spoke during a pro-
gram arranged by the fedora
tion's department Of conserva-
ton. headed by Mrs. Frank j.
Mulkern. Sharing the program
with him was Mrs. Margate S.
KienaSt, chief of women's ac-
tivities for the United States
Forest Service of the Agriculture
Department.
Mrs. KienaSt declared that a
big problem that faces the Forest
Service each year is misuse of
the recreation areas by holiday
and weekend picnic parties. Be-
cause the Forest Service is linn
tied in personnel and funds, with
forest rangers often doing double
duty cleaning up the mess left
by the visitors, she said, it is
promoting an educational pro-
gram to make people more con-
SciouS of forest conservation.
Following her talk, Mrs. Kienast
showed a Forest Service film,
woodland Manners" which il
lustrated her plea.
A highlight for federation
members was the novel hat show,
which concluded the program.
The hats were designed by Mrs.
Mulkern to represent conserva-
tion Of various natural resources.

they are on a cruise to Alaska

They usually shut their eyes to

Naturally, that makes them well
