WASHINGTON R-Investigating
senator's aimed a new pocketbook
blow today at trade between the
free nations of the West and Com
munist China.
Sen. Mccarthy (R-Wis) and his
Senate investigations subcommit-
tee, avowedly seeking by indirec.
ton to crimp the flow of Western
goods to Red China, scheduled the
start of public hearings today on
the issue.
However, one member of the
committee voiced qualms that the
public session might upset White
House and State Department policy
making.
Frankly" Sen. Jackson Cd.
Wash) said in advance of the hear
ing, Il am worried about the wis
dom of public airing unless we
have assurance from the White
House or the State Department that
we are not interfering with broader
plans to do the same job, and to
do it better, perhaps"
Jackson said he would take I'D
that question with Mccarthy.
Kenneth Hanson, a deputy to mu-
tual Security Director Harold E.
Stassen, was scheduled as an early
witness. Representatives of other
government agencies were expect
ed to be called for testimony about
ships used in hauling Mutual Sc
curity Administration (MSA) car

Mccarthy said his inquiry is de-
signed to produce new orders de-
nying u. S. government charters

to any foreign-registry ships whose
owners also haul goods to or for
the Chinese Reds or North Ko-
reans.
U. S. flag ships already are
barred from such. commerce. Bril-
tain, France and other Western
nations permit ships flying their
flags to touch at Communist ports
but not to haul war goods.
Sen. Mundt (R-SD), q member
of the subcommittee, said he ex-
poets the hearings twill present a
weight of evidence so overwhelm-
ing-so clear that this trade harms
the Western interests-that execu-
tive agencies won't say mo- to it.
I don't think they want to say mo-
to it now"
Mccarthy said testimony in the
hearings win show that Chinese
Communists are at least part own
ers of ships flying the British nag
which haul cargoes to Red China
useful to Communist fighting fore
es in Korea.

WASHINGTON R-State owner
ship of offshore submerged lands
is defended by advocates as 'equi-
ty and justice" and denounced by
opponents as "giveaway" Of an
area extremely yich in oil.
Advocates say the states should
have the underwater coastal lands
because they held them and devel-
oped them In good faith for a cen
fury. Opponents say the Supreme
Court has upheld the federal claim

row. Passage is as certain as any
legislative question can be. In pre-
liminary tests, the highest voting
strength opponents Of the admin

up was IS.
Major arguments for the state
ownership bill have been:
i. That the doctrine of para
mount rights applied by the Su.
preme Court to offshore lands Is

beds Of rivers, lakes, harbors,
bays and filled land reclaimed

2. That the law Of state owner

Court for more than 100 years
