White
Continued From First Page.)

tee countered this argument with
a statement that the White case
has been under investigation by
the committee for five years.
The rule against new investiga-
tions clearly did not apply, he
said.
A committee spokesman ex-
planned how it happened that
the SubpoenaS were issued over
the signature of Chairman Velde
while Mr.. Velde was out of town
Mr.. Velde issued orders for the
subpoenas by telephone he said.
The Washington staff had on
hand a number of blank SUBJ
poenas already signed by the
chairman and the clerk of the
House. This is normal proce-
dure, the spokesman said, for ex-
pediting the work of the COM
mittee.
AS it turned out, a committee
investigator in New York on other
business, also had in his posses
sion several blank subpoenas
signed by Mr.. Velde. He was
instructed to fill in Mr.. Truman's
name and serve the ex-Presi-
dent.
Meeting Expected.
1t was thought shat Chair
man Velde might call an execu-
tive meeting of the committee
later today if a sufficient number
of members were available. If
not, this meeting will be held to-
morrow morning.
Members of the Internal Sc
curity subcommittee also had
their eyes on Mr.. Truman as a
prospective witness.
Both committees were after
former Secretary of State Byrnes
and Mr.. Truman's one time mil
itary aide, Maj. Gen. Harry
Vaughan. Gen. Vaughan got
subpoenas to appear before both
committees tomorrow. Gov.
Byrnes agreed to answer a series
of written questions for the In
ternal Security Subcommittee of
Senator Jenner, The Un-Amer-
ican Activities Committee issued
a subpoena for him to testify
personally.
Clark Acceptance Uncertain.
Justice Clark, who served as
Attorney General under Presi-
dent Truman. received his SUBJ
poena at his Office late yester-
day. Mr.. Brownell has said that
the FBI report on White also
went to Mr.. Clark in 1945. Like
Mr.. Truman, Justice Clark is
scheduled to appear before the
committee on Friday.
There was some question
whether he would appear. So
far, Justice Clark has declined to
comment on the White case. One
of his former subordinates lin
the Justice Department, T. La
mar Caudle, has stated that he
received a copy of the White
report and consulted Mr.. Clark
about it.
There is no precedent for sub
poenaS by congressional COM
mittees either for former Pres
idents or Supreme Court JUS
ticeS. Some former Presidents
have testified voluntarily. Ear
lier this year. Justice Clark de-
clined an invitation-not an Of
fetal summons-from another
House group investigating past
Justice Department operations.
Byrnes Liability Uncertain.
So far, there has been no COM
ment from Justice Clark or Gov.
Byrnes as to whether they will
comply with the subpoenas. AS
Governor of a sovereign State
and as a delegate to the United
Nations. there is doubt whether

this country Is at the mercy of
Russia or any other country
because it may have a few bombs
is not a fact. The spreading of
such dire conclusions has the
tendency to destroy our will to
defend this country"
He asserted that too much
stress is put on these bombs. and
the main reason for advertising
what we have and what Russia
has is to keep the people pre-
pairing for war" He emphasized
that food surpluses, so long as
they do not drain the fertility
of the land, "are a national
defense of the most powerful
kind any country can have"
These surpluses," he ex-
planned, "can be used to feed
people who are hungry. Instead
of giving foreign nations cash,
give the hungry people of those
countries food and see that it
goes directly to the people.
Starving people will follow any
ism that promises food. Com
munism grows where people are
hungry. If we desire to stop the
spread of communism, then stop
the spread of hunger"

Food SurpIuses Held Key
To Victory in Future Wars

Napoleon'S maxim about an
army travelling on its stomach
took a modern turn today when
a House member urged the Ma
ton to think more about food
than about atom bombs.
MY guess" Representative
Burdick, Republican, of North
Dakota stated, "iS that war be-
tween Russia and the United
States, if it finally comes, will
not be settled by the atomic
bomb. 1t will be settled, as wars
have always been settled, by food.
The country that has an in
exhaustible Stockpile of food has
a defense that no war machine
can conquer. Food could stop
Communism in it's tracks"
Mr.. Burdick cautioned against
exaggerating the power of an
atomic or H-bomb attack to
knock out a country. He never
theless urged greater defense of
strategic points, including not
only vital manufacturing and
governmental centers in cities
but also hydroelectric power pro-
ducing dams and similar eStab-
lishmentS.

Beans Raised
On Liquid Diet

OUT AT THE Hartford plutonium
manufacturing plant near Richland,
Wash, botanists are growing kid
ney bean plants in liquid food, with
out speck of dirt in sight. These
scientists doing research work at
this Atomic Energy Commission in
stallation, use chamber or "Clima-
tier" as it's called, to control all
the environmental factors affecting
the growth of specimen plants
placed in the chamber.
The chamber itself is about nine
feet long, and three feet wide. A
control cabinet regulates light in
tensity, temperatures, simulated day
and night lengths, and humidities.
The first step in the process takes
place in termination dish. Here
the beans are placed in nutrient
fluid among small glass beads which
form foundation in which roots
can anchor. After 10 day germina-
ton period, the plants are large
enough for the stems, which are
swathed in cotton, to be fitted into
notched lucite holders in the growth
chamber. This is when their life of
controlled environment begins.
The next step is the primary pur-
pose for the existence of this lab
oratory bean patch. Various radio
active isotopes are added to the nu-
TRENT solutions and the plants are
kept under close surveillance to de-
termine the effects of radioactive
materials on these specimens. From
this, fundamental knowledge is ac-
CURED for use in general biology,
botany and atomic research.
One surprising result is that each
plant develops the same as its broth
ers in the chamber. After rs DAYS
each plant will be Identical in the
number of flowers, and 10 days la
ter they all will bear the same
amount of fruit.

Growing life for the bean plants be-
gins in these termination dishes. The
dishes contain hundreds of glass beads

added 10 promote growth. The beans
remain here for about 10 days until
they are large enough for the growth
chamber.

Does Soviet Trust Puppet Army?
twas Russian Division That Suppressed the Riotno
In East BerIn as the Reds Native Troops Stood by

that such a withdrawal would
react in their favor in West
ern Germany.
When the insurrection broke
out, the Russians decided for
good reasons that they had
better not trust the job of kill
ing fellow countrymen to the
German army itself.
According to reports from
West Berlin, the Russians were
justified in fearing that the
East German military might
make a common cause with
the insurgents. Nothing would
have been more embarrassing
for the Kremlin than If the
East German battalions had
opened fire on the Red troops
and given them a f1rst-class
licking. The Berlin workers
def1ed the puppet authorities
because they were certain that
the German army created by
the Soviets would not fight
them.
Am e ri C an diplomats are
looking, possibly prematurely,
at the effects on other Western
nations Of the slap in the face
administered to the Reds by
the East Berliners.

President Rhee Proves q Point
RECKLESS Release OF Prisoners Demonstrates Once Aquin
The Absurdty of War as Instrument of Civilization

The United States and the
United Nations may work
themselves out of the frightful
dilemma resulting from the dis
astrouS course of President
Syngman Rhee in South Korea.
Just how it is to be done it is
almost impossible to foresee.
The effect of his action in re-
leasing thousands of war pris-
oners, in defiance of the ma
tionS to whom his country
literally owes its continued ex-
lstence, will remain to plague
the free world, regardless Of
any immediate military truce.
If probable consequences
were not so tragic, the situa-
ton the aged patriot has Gre
ated could be viewed as one of
the ironic jests of history. 1t
reveals the absurdity of war as
an instrument of civilization.
This being so, and while our
Government and the U. N.
struggle with the problem Rhee
has presented, it might be a
good time for Congress to take
up a proposal, now awaiting
it's action, intended to hasten
the day when war will be re-
membered only as an institu-
ton of the past. Since early
this month the Senate Foreign
Relations Committee has had
in its hands a resolution call
ing for a universal disarma-
ment agreement. It was offered
by Republican Senator Flan-
ders of Vermont. Thirty-three
other Senators, Republicans
and Democrats, all practical
men by their own lights and so
generally regarded. Joined in
its sponsorship. It is a follow
up in a way Of President Eisen-
hower's electrifying speech of
April Is suggesting interna-
tional control of ornaments
and atomic weapons, with a
great part of the saving thus
achieved to be devoted to the
aid of countries in need.
The Senate listened with OBJ
vious sympathy to the reading
of the resolution when it was
Evening star., 1953-06-20

presented June 3. A number
voiced their support. Presid-
ing over the chamber at the
time was Republican Senator
Hendrickson of New Jersey.
Without leaving the chair, he
commended Senator Flanders,
an almost unprecedented ac-
ton.
Many things were said that
day that seem even more perth
nent now, a few weeks later.
Said Senator Case of South
Dakota:
The world learned. or
should have learned. as the
result Of World War II, that
war creates problems involv-
ing enormous expenses and
which are seemingly more diff
f1cult of solution than those
which existed at the time war
started"
Said Senator Martin Of
Pennsylvania: II have sup
ported and worked for a strong
military organization all my
life and have sincerely felt
that great military power on
the part of the United States
would result in peace for the
world. However, the last two
world wars Gin which, he could
have said, he took parD and
the possibility of q third, have
convinced me that it is i'm
possible for us to become suffi-
GENTLY strong to achieve that
goal; indeed, it Is almost i'm
possible to provide sufficient
money to assure an adequate
defense. The defense of a
people must be within the
minds of the people.
IF the present armament
race continues, all the nations
of the world will go bankrupt,
and that will mean chaos"

ton show the other govern
mentS of the world that the

received the maximum sentence.
Then came April 5, 1851,
RoSenberg'S jaw set grimly, his
wife's gay demeanor vanished
and she clutched a chair as
Judge Kaufman pronounced the
death sentence.

ion, the Communist aggression
in Korea, with the resultant cas-

knows but that millions more of
innocent people may pay the

Indeed, by your betrayal you
undoubtedly have altered the
course of history to the disad-
vantage of our country"
Sobell, classed a lesser cog in
the conspiracy, was sentenced to
80 years Imprisonment. The
next day Greenglass was reward
ed for his cooperation with the

eH the Associated Press

LOS ANGELES, June 20.-A
man who played a part in the
last stay of execution for atom
spies Julius and Ethel Rosenberg
was chased out of Pershing
Square by an angry crowd last
night.
Police said Irwin Edelman, 54,
veteran soapbox orator in the
Los Angeles midtown park, be-
gan a speech with the statement: /:
IF you are happy about the
execution of the Rosenbergs, you
are rotten to the core"
This enraged the gathering,
estimated by officers at 300, and
