He said the committee headed
by Mr.. Douglas was gathering
data that Government officials
didn't themselves have time to
assemble and that if he has his
way, the committee will be a
continuing body.
The President replied, when
asked if he contemplated good

that he thought our relations
there were terribly important,

Velde Says Teacher
Who WouIdn't Talk
Has Reconsidered
sy the AsseeiGlsd Prsss

Chairman Velde said today the
House Un-American Activities
Committee expects Wendell Fur
ry< Of Harvard to. make q COM
plete accounting of his alleged
Communist connections.
Mr.. Velde. said Prof. Furry re.
quested an opportunity to ap-
pear again before the group to
change testimony he gave on
February 26. He said Mr.. Furry
will get his new chance on April
16. after a committee excursion
to Los Angeles to wind up its
probe for SubversiveS in the en-
tertainment field. The West
Coast hearings are scheduled to
open Monday, with witnesses
who were Subpoenaed but not
heard last year.
Mr.. Furry refused, as witness
on February IS, TO say whether
he is a Communist or ever was q
member Of the Communist Party
in the late 30S.
Robert G. Davis, a Smith Col
lege professor who renowned his
Communist connections, told the
committee he knew Mr.. Furry as
a member of Red cell at Har-
ward from 1887 to 1889.
The Furry. case came alive
again after Abraham Chaser, a
Rutgers University law professor,
testified yesterday. Mr.. CHASER
said he is, not now AN official,
card-carrying member of the
Communist Party"
Mr.. CHASER. 37-year-old for
mer Justice Department lawyer,
refused, however. to answer queS-
tons about any Communist con-
nections from 1885 until 1871.
He contended he was cleared
in 1941 by q special Justice De-
partment hearing committee of
charges Of having been a Com
munist and asSociating with
Communists.
The committee recessed the
hearing indefinitely without fin
ishing up the CHASER case.

Charles Arnot Quits
As State Department
Press Service Chief

Charles p. Arnot, who APP
peared privately before a Senate
investigations bcom m t tee
earlier this week, has resigned
as director Of the State Depart
ment's International Press Serv-
ice. department officials disclosed
today.
He submitted his resignation
yesterday and it was accepted to
take effect Immediately. A de-
partment spokesman said no
question of security was involved.
He explained that MI. Arnot
gave personal reasons for his
resignation and that he wanted
to give the new administration
q choice of its Subordinates.
The Fps, which Mr.. Arnot has
headed since February IA, 1852,
will have Charles P. Miller as
acting director. The agency is
one Of the divisions of the de-
partment's international Infor-
nation Administration. The
Voice Of America is another. Mr..
Arnot went to the agency two
years ago. Mr.. Miller has been
his deputy.
The Senate subcommittee
headed by Senator Mccarthy,
Republican, of Wisconsin, last
Monday started looking into va
riouS United States propaganda
agencies in addition to the Voice
of America. Mr.. Arnot appeared
before the subcommittee in
closed session last Monday.
Later, while Senator Mccarthy
stood by listening without COM
ment, Mr.. Arnot told reporters
he was delighted to talk with the
subcommittee. He remarked that
it gives us an opportunity to
propaganda for what I think is
damn good project" He said
the meeting was a very friendly
session"
Senator Mccarthy was not inn
mediately available for comment
today. His subcommittee re-
sumed hearings in it's study Of
the Voice of America.

of Mr.. Bohlen's loyalty and Sc
curity.
Mccarthy Plans Speech.
Senator Mccarthy said he I'M,
doubtedly will speak on the NOM
nation, and added:
II wish Dulles would take his
complete file over to the Pres
ident. In view of the committee
action, it is going to be difficult
to discuss some phases Of the
case, but they sorce us to do it.
If Eisenhower reads the file, he
will withdraw the nomination. |"
Mr.. Dulles firm backing Of Mr..
Bohlen tended to boost the mo-
rale of career workers in the
State Department and Foreign
Service, which had been shaken
by some previous actions of the
new administration indicating a
policy of yielding on decisions
questioned by Senator Mccarthy.
In this case, as in his recent
ruling overturning a Loyalty Re-
view Board finding of reason
able doubt" about the loyalty
of career diplomat John Carter
Vincent and permitting Mr.. VIM
cent to retire, Mr.. Dulles stood
up to Mccarthy criticism. Most
career workers saw a good omen
for the future in these actions.
Held "Best Available"
The Secretary of State testi-
fed Mr.. Bohlen is uniquely
qualified" to be Ambassador to
the Soviet Union and is Dy far
"the best available person we
could think of" with the quail
fcations desired by the Eisen-
hover administration.
These qualifications, he ex-
planned. are a thorough famili-
arity with Russia and Soviet
communism, which sometimes
makes 1t possible, on the basis Of
very slight evidence. to detect
trends toward Russian policy
changes at very early stages.

Senate confirmation of Charles
E. Bohlen as Ambassador to
Russia appeared a foregone con-
clusion today in view of the
unanimous approval of him by
all Is members of the Foreign
Relations Committee yesterday.
The administration still faces
a floor debate before the Senate
votes next week, but the unani-
nous committee action was a
blow to the opposition. Chairman
Wiley said the debate will be de-
layed until Monday to allow
printing of an edited version Of
the bearings.
President Eisenhower. at his
news conference today, defended
the appointment. declaring that
it had been made strictly on its
merits as his, administration
saw them.
His comment was prompted by
a query about what he thought
of the statement of Senator Nc
Carthy, Republican, of Wiscon-
sin that the appointment OF Mr.,
Bohlen was q mistake. WE e.,
Gen. Eisenhower said that he
had had a full report on Mr..
Bohlen from Secretary Of State
Dulles and that he looked on
Mr.. Bohlen as well equipped for
the position because he is famil-
lar with the Russians-so far as
anybody can be familiar with
the Soviet government.

Of New Hampshire, and Nc
Carthy, both said the COMMITTEES

Board Asked 10 Give
MoreAid in Schooling
Retarded Children

More help from the District
in educating handicapped chill
dren has been asked Of the Board
Of Education.
Two parents appeared before
the board yesterday to make the
appeal.
Mrs. Willis King Of Help for
Retarded Children, Inc, a group
formed by parents whose chill
dren have not progressed as fast
as normal, said the District
doesn't provide enough educa-
tional facilities for such young
SterS.
Some Never Admitted.
Fifty or so children are ex-
cused from school annually be-
cause they can not keep up with
regular classes. she pointed out.
A number are admitted later.
but some never are.
There is a long wait for the
few children admitted to the
District Training School at Lau-
rel. Md, she added.
Most parents can't afford ex-
pensive private schooling, or they
must deny college training to
their other children because all
their money goes to the retarded
child. says Mrs. King. She urged
the provision of special group
training facilities or District
payments to relieve parents Of
part of the financial burden.
1.-The District of Columbia has
a duty to provide some form of
education for those children
whose retardation is. such that.
while they cannot profit from
attendance at the regular classes.
they can profit from group train
ing" Mrs. King declared.
For Hard-Of Hearing.
Mrs. Margot Kern, acting
president of the Parent Study
Group of the Washington Hear
ing Society. asked the schools to
provide better facilities and
equipment for hard-of-hearing
children.
The board took the matters
under advisement.
Approved by 5-to-3 vote was
a request for Congress to in
clude retired school teachers in
a proposed exemption Of retired
Government employees from in
come taxes on $4,000 of their
annuities. Robert r. Faulkner,
Mrs. Frank S. Phillips and Miss
Mary H. Parker opposed the re-
quest.
Mr.. Faulkner said the proper
step would be to increase pen.

Both indicated. however, they
had not expected unanimous
committee Endorsement. Senator
Bridges said this development
would mean a smaller opposition
vote in the Senate than his
earlier estimate of from Is to 20.
Ferguson Reserves Stand.
Although Senator Ferguson
Republican, of Michigan. Joined
in making the committee vote
unanimous. he told reporters he
reserved the right to change his
mind If the floor debate develops
any new facts.
Senator Ferguson had taken
the lead in committee in quiz
zing Mr.. Bohlen to find out
whether he helped shape policy
decisions at the 1915 yalta con-
ference.
MI. Bohlen told the commit
tee again yesterday he acted only
as an interpreter.
The unanimous vote came
after the committee spent four
hours in closed session with Sec
rotary of State Dulles and Mr..
Bohlen. A statement issued by
Senator Wiley indicated !. Mr..
Dulles made a strong defense Of
the nominee, who has been a
career diplomat for "a years. He
entered the Foreign Service dur
ing the Hoover administration.
Mr.. Dulles gave the committee
an evaluation of the FBI report
on Mr.. Bohlen which he said he

Gen. Eisenhower brought up
the Russian situations at the very
outset, saying the whole world
is specializing on the meaning Of
the changeover since Georgi Ma
lenkov became Premier. IS:
As far as we are concerned,
Gen. Eisenhower continued, and
as. seriously as the situation is
viewed, the Government sees no
difference In the intentions of
the KreTnlin.
He said the watchful attitude
OF the Government and careful
analysis Of the things that have
taken place. present no different
a picture than has previously
prevailed.
Recalling that Premier Malen-
kov says the Soviet wants peace,
the President said that is just as
welcome, as it is sincere. It was
then that he added firmly that
this Government will never go
less than halfway to meet real
peace overtures from the Kremlin.
This was in effect a reite1a-
ton of the Presidents earlier
statement. 4
The President declined to COM

He said he didn't want to say
anything that might be provoca-
tive-or that might hinder the
cause of peace.
The President discounted re-
ports that the administration
was studying committee pro-
poSal calling for vast expendi-
lures for atomic warfare and
civil defense. He said a COM
mittee had been named in the
past administration to look into
this field and that it had made

Negro Has Power
To Lift Self To
Full Citizenship
BY OLIVE A. ADAMS

NEW YORK. (GlcbaD Negroes
are IsolationiSts. This is true part
ly because of necessity, but the
Negro has isolatNN himself many
times when he hasn't had to, much
to his own disadvantage. We howl
about the evils of discrimination
and segregation, but every time
we get the chance, we set our
selves apart. Z
This brings to mind an incident
that occurred in a small midwest
ern town sCme time ago. It was
lust little place 5OO0
There was only one Negro family.
that settled down in the town.
Other Negroes would drift in and
out, stay year and move away
However, at one time. FIR some
reason or other, about four Negro
families happened to come to the
town around the same time The
original family had always been
members of the Methodist Church.
The mcther YVES secretary of the
Missionary Society, one of the.
boys was superintendent of tie
Sunday school, and one of >he girls
was uperintendent of the Summer
Vacation Bible School. But the
other Negro families got together
and decided they wanted to or
ganize a colored church. The orig
inal family cor.l never under
stand why. Certainly in a town
like that there may be uncer-
tainty, even suspicion at first, in
the relationship between whites
and Negroes. But once Negroes
live down the vicious propaganda,
they are accepted as people. There
fore, there was no need for Ne,
groes to feel that they had to set
up a eepArate place of worship.
OF course the family never Joined
the church, and a good thing it
was, too. In less than a year, it.
was no-,mOre. -. ...e
This narroWness of thinking
was brought out when Global
News Syndicate presented its
Press Conference and Workshop
last year. The discussion theme
was: Modern journalism as al
Force in a Free Society" This
subject should certainly havei
aroused the imagination of even
the most circumScribed individual
modern journaliSm comprises a /
wide field, including radio and
televiSion. However, the discussion
was narrowed down to Negro
newspapers and their position in
the community. The moderator
had to constantly remind the audi
ence that the discussion of jour
ne lism was not centered upon the
narrow Negro community, but the
broad American community.
This years Conference (June
2e-2O will be still broader 1t will |
consider Journalism as it affects
world situations, human relation
ships and understanding. Negrol
Journalism should be an integral |
psrt of that program.
