much real corruption" when he
took over at the Justice Depart
ment, Mr.. Brownell replied:
1--WE found more incompetence
than we had anticipated. We
found that the overwhelming
number of employees were honest
workmen. but that the leadership
was very poor, and that meri-
torious service was not sufficient
ly rewarded. and, by leaving in
competents on the job, others
were discouraged from doing
their best professional work"
Mr.. Brownell said he thought
the deterrent power" of Gov
ernment officials to fire poor
security risks has tended to dis
courage some Communists from
attempting to get Government
jobs.
The Civil Service Commission,
he said. has been given new au-
thority to check the various
agencies to make sure they carry
out security orders when they
have been furnished derogatory
reports on an employe by the
FBI.
The Attorney General defend
ed Congrss' right to investigate
loyalty matters if there is a
, breakdown in Executive De-
partment enforcement of secur-
ity orders.
I'VE believe there is a very
legitimate place and a very i'm
portant place for congressional
investigating committees because
evidence Of subversion may not
show up until the statute of limi-
tationS has rum" he said.

Attorney General Brownell
said today domestic Communists
are "a greater menace now than
at any time" and that "I sup
pose there are more in labor un-
ions than anywhere else" -
Not concentrated in the
clergy?" he was asked during a
copyrighted interview with the
magazine United States News
and World Report. Mr.. Brownell
replied. mo"
There was no mention of the
name of j. B. Matthews, former
staff director of the Senate In.
vestigationS Subcommittee head
ed by Senator Mccarthy, Repub-
lican. of Wisconsin.
Shortly after Mr.. Matthews
was hired by Senator Mccarthy,
the American Mercury published
an article in which Mr.. Matthews
wrote that "the largest single
group supporting the Commu-
mist apparatus, in the United
States today is composed of
Protestant clergymen." In the
uproar which followed. Mr.. Mat
tllews resigned.
Says Reds Are Underground.
Mr.. Brownell said the Reds
have gone underground since
the Smith Act trials started"
They are better organized,
and detection is more difficult" I"
he said.
Interviewers asked Mr.. Brow
nell:
In what field do you think
most of those Communists can
be found now? Are they spread
through all organizations, or are
they concentrated in some par
ticular field?"
Fails to Elaborate.
Mr.. Brownell replied: II sup
pose there are more in labor
unions than anywhere else"
He did not elaborate.
Under further questioning, Mr..
Brownell said two or three unions
are on an old Justice Depart
ment list Of subversive organiza-
tions. but they are not big AFL
or CIO unions"
"Are you thinking about put
ting any former CIO unions on
the list?" he was asked.
There's nothing immediate
on that" Mr.. Brownell replied.
Eleven top Communist officials
were convicted in 1949 of con-
spring to violate the Smith Act,
which makes it a crime to teach
or advocate forcible overthrow of
the United States Government.
Mr.. Brownell said the Com
munist party has lost about u.s.
900 members, bringing it down
to about $4,000, since that trial
and several which followed it.
But the $4,000, he added, "are
obviously subject to the propa-
ganda of the Communist agents"
The party members who re-
main, he said, are organizing
their forces more effectively
their espionage activities are
much more underground than
they were"
No Letup in Enforcement.
Mr.. Brownell said there was
no early prospect that any of
the unions expelled from the CIO
several years ago on grounds
that they follow the Communist
line would be put on the Attor-
ney Generals list of subversive
organizations.
Mr.. Brownell pledged there
would be no letup in enforce
ment of civil rights and anti
trust laws.

EXCEPT FOR historians. few people are
IL aware that the Fourth of July marks not
only the anniversary of the Declaration of
Independence but the anniversary Of the
Confederate retreat from Gettysburg, where
the decisive battle of the Civil War was fought
On that fateful Fourth, just 80 years ago, the
Confederates gave up their proud plan to
invade the North and headed wearily back
to Virginia. This retreat foretold inevitable
victory for the Northern forces and for the
new birth of freedom" immortalized by
Lincoln in his Gettysburg address.
Out of a total of about 5000 men, the South
suffered some 10000 casualties in the battles
that began July and lasted until July 5, by
which time the Southern Army was in full
flight. Pickett's charge. the high point Of the
Confederate surge, was broken on July g. and
on the Fourth. Gen. Lee. recognizing the futility

of continuing the engagement. issued the order
to fall back.
The Union side, under Gen. Meade had
about $4,000 casualties out of $4,000 electives,
but their stand put an end to Confederate
hopes in the East. Meanwhile, on that same
Fourth of July, Grant eliminated successful
Mississippi campaign by capturing Vicksburg
with its garrison of $4,000 men, thus stimuli
taneously turning the tide in the West. On
that one day the South lost all hope of victory,
even though the war dragged on for another
two years.
Today the field of Gettysburg is q national
park, whose 24OO acres contain more than
1000 plaques and monuments erected by
States and regimental associations These
