Program

By Fronces Lide

The aim of the State Depart
ment's personnel security pro-
gram will be the maximum Sc
curity that will permit us to get
the job DONE" R. w. Scott
Mcleod told the Rock Creek
Women's Republican Club yes
terday.
Mr.. Mcleod, who is admins
traitor of the Bureau of Security
and Consular Affairs of the State
Department. spoke at the clubs
last full meeting of the season.
held at the Woodward & 10th
rop auditorium in Bethesda.
At the outset, the speaker said
he would not discuss specific cases
or individuals, but would confine
his remarks to a general discus
sion Of the security program.
Pressed during the question
and answer period to state why
more jobs in the department had
not been turned over to Republic
cans, he reminded his audience
that there is great deal of diff
ference between security clear
ance and political clearance"
"As much as I hate to say it
before a Republican club" he
said with a laugh. New Dealers
are not necessarily bad security
risks"
Stressing that "our primary
purpose is to get a job DONE" the
speaker said that you can be
so secure" that you can't ac-
complish that aim.
For instance. he pointed out,
it would be desirable from a Sc
curity standpoint to make close
check on every one who came
into the State Department Build
ing. But. he added, to require
everyone to show a pass and to
sign his name, carefully check
ing the signature, would be such
q cumbersome process that no
one would get to work on time.
So employees are asked to
show a pass when they come in.
he said, and sign their names
when they work after regular
hours. ...
Mr.. Mcleod outlined the pro-
cedure to be followed in the
State Department under the new
security rules of the Eisenhower
administration.
He expressed the opinion that
the new standards are superior
to the Truman loyalty program
because the latter was based on
loyalty, which is hard to prove"
The new order puts the en-
phasis on security, he declared,
by trying to establish whether
an employe is a good security
risk and not If he is a good
American.
In answer to a question. Mr..
Mcleod said his Office would try
to investigate every one already
on the department payroll but
that it would take time. The
procedure, he said. will be to
review the security clearance Of
employees as they are promoted
or transferred and in cases
where old-time employees have
never been investigated.
The speaker was introduced
by Mrs. Winfield Weitzel, CO.
chairman Of the Program Com
mittee The club president, Miss
Louise Gore, presided.
f. During the business session,
it was reported that approx
mately $3.50 was cleared at the
recent benefit performance of
First Lady," staged by the club.

found that "they like to argue
back and forth. AS Communists
their main hope is to spread it,
But he said. you don't just
sit there and listen to that

talking back might have had
some effect. Communism, he
pointed out, "only has given
them death and hunger"
Pvt. Powers said that the Com

IF you could let them know
just what America means and
what democracy stands for, it
would have a terrific effect" he

On School Budget Cut

Hundreds of Montgomery
County parents and children this
week end will distribute fact
sheets supporting the school bud
get recommended by the Mont
gomery County School Board but
deeply cut by former County
Manager Irving G. McNayr.
The papers contain, besides
figures in school construction
needs and future enrolment. two
petition statements. one for each
side of the budget controversy.
Prepared by the Montgomery
County Council of Parent
Teacher Associations, the papers
are being passed around to coun-
ty residents by members of some
so PTA units and their children.
First Major Effort.
James @. Reber. president of
the council, said the present
campaign is the first major ef-
fort the council has undertaken
to educate" the public on in
creaSing enrolment, the need
for more schools and the teacher
shortage.
The present campaign comes
in the wake of protests over the
81 million recommended for
school construction in the county
managers budget. The Board of
Education has proposed that the
capital outlay for schools be $7.2
million. The program envisaged
by that figure included construc-
ton Of:
One junior high school, six
elementary schools. three high
school additions, 16 elementary
school additions and other cap
ital costs.
Concerns Tax Reduction.
One petition reads in part: II
am opposed to the reductions in
the boards budget because of
the immediate and cumulative
long adverse effects in the
housing. maintenance and op-
Grafton of this county's school
system.
g.. While I recognize that the
effect of the county managers
recommendations may reduce
taxes affecting me for fiscal 1854,
am willing to forego such re-
duction, if necessary, to meet
school needs"
The paper also contains space
for citizens to register the op-
posite view, in a petition which
reads in part:
II have read the petition on the
other side of this page and am
not willing to forego the reduc-
ton in taxes"
Other activities planned by
the council in its effort to restore
both the capital improvements
and the operating funds to the
budget will be assignment of
speakers to as many local groups
as care to have them.

PSC Backtracks
| On Sanitary Rates
| Authority Question

The Maryland Public Service
Commission has back tracked on
it's earlier assertion that it had
no authority over rates set by the
Washington Suburban Sanitary
Commission.
Albert l.. Deem, PSC executive
secretary, told reporters from his
Baltimore Office the whole ques-
ton of jurisdiction was being
reconsidered and had been
turned over to the commission s
general counsel for a formal
opinion.
The Star yesterday disclosed
Mr.. Deem had written a Mont
gomery County resident stating
that the commission would not
take any action on complaints
against the sharply increased
rates established last month by
the sanitary commission.
1910 Law Cited.
Mr.. Deem explained to report
erS this letter had been written
in the light of a 1910 State law
creating the PSC. Since the let
ter-writing action, he said, his
attention had been drawn to a
1918 Maryland local law creating
the sanitary commission and au-
thorizing the PSC to hear ap-
peals on the reasonableness of
assessments, tax levies and serv-
ice charges levied by the BIZ
county agency.
"This law may throw an en-
tirely different light on the mat
ter" Mr.. Deem conceded.
The PSC spokesman attrib-
uted the oversight to the fact
that he knows of no proceedings
being held by the PSC regarding
the 1918 provision.
"Hasty" Letter.
Mr.. Deen indicated he felt his
letter had been a little hasty
and said the commission would
be guided in the matter oy the
opinion to be rendered by Gen
eral Counsel Charles D. Harris.
He said an opinion IS not ex-
pected before the first Of the
week.
Some residents of suburban
Maryland have been up in arms
over a 60-cent-a-month increase
in trash collection rates and a
new sewer charge which will hike
water bills about so per cent.
Some civic groups and Prince
Georges towns. officials have
threatened court action to block
the rate increases.
Many Montgomery residents
have agreed to file appeals with
the PSC within the 30-day limit
set by the 1918 law.
