Wallace Declares
He Fired Employees
Later Called Reds
BY the Assoeiotsd Press


NEW YORK, Aug. 31.-Henry
A. Wallace says that in 1885 he
fired several Agriculture Depart.
ment employees who were later
charged as Communists because
disagreed with the policies they
advocated"
The former Vice Presidents
statement came in a letter to
the New York Times in which
he commented on a report last
week by the Senate Internal
Security Committee.
The report said it is believed
that two more Soviet espionage
rings operating in the United
States Government have never
been exposed.
In tracing the background of
alleged Communist activities.
the report said the first known
penetration was a Communist
cell in the Agricultural Adjust
ment Administration.
Members of Group.
The subcommittee said mem
bers of this group included Alger
Hiss and his brother, Donald;
Nathan Witt, Lee Pressman.
John j. Abt. Charles Kramer,
Henry H. Collins, jr.; Victor
Perlo and Harold Ware
In covering the report. dis
patches by the New York Times
Service and the Associated Press
described the AAA as a body set
up under the then Secretary Of
Agriculture Wallace to handle
New Deal farm programs. Mr..
Wallace's letter yesterday to the
Times said in part:
First the Harold Ware re-
ferred to never was in the United
States Department of Agricul-
ture while I was secretary. This
man was on the United States
Department of Agriculture roll
while the agricultural secretaries
chosen by Coolidge and Hoover
were in control.
1T was this man, according to
testimony, who organized the cell
in the first place.
Second, a very short time
after the cell was organized in
the AAA of the United States
Department of Agriculture l
fired some of the members and
most of the rest left as a result
of the celebrated purge which
took place in early 1885,"
(Mr. Wallace. who could not
be reached last night, did not
further identify the 'cele-
brated purge" of 1885. How
ever, widespread shakeup of
the Soviet underground sys-
TEN was directed by Joseph
Stain in 1880
Disagreed With Policies.
Mr.. Wallace said no one knew
members of the cell as Commu-
nists until testimony was given
by Pressman 10 years later.
Il fired them because l dis
agreed with the policies they ad-
vocated and felt there could not
be satisfactory relationship be-
tween the department and the
Congress until they left" Mr..
Wallace added.
He did not elaborate on the
policies the men advocated.
Mr.. Wallace said it is difficult
to see why he was singled out by
name in dispatches when Ware
never served under me and I got
rid of most of the AAA members
on the Ware cell not long after
the cell was formed.
The Senate report recognizes
that the AAA got rid of these
men in early 1885 and does not
mention me by name"

Whichever you have here's worthwhile news!
You can enjoy up to 1879 powerup to 15O6 more

switching from your present gasoline to Shell Premium
with TCP addtive That's because this gasoline deve
opment stops the greatest of power and fuel
affecting the majority Of the the road today
This waste caused by engine deposits spark plugs
and in combustion chambers These engine deposits do
kinds of harm. First they shortcircuit spark plugs
causing msng Second because they get red hot in the
combustion chambers they often cause preignition or
wild ping-a premature gntng of the ue-ar mixture.
The combined effect of short-crcued spark plugs plus
pregnon is lost power and wasted gasoline This loss of
power especially noticeable when acceleratng, hill climb
ing, cruising on the open highway
But, Shell Premium with TCP additive changes the
character Of these deposits Your spark plugs fire they
should. Pre-ignition wild ping" is controlled.
Not since the introduction of tetraethyl lead in 1922
has there been such significant advance in gasoline.
Shell Premium with TCP quick to act
So rapidly does Shell Premium increase your power you'll
feel your engines had tune-up before you've finished

To promote more widespread
acceptance of the Ohio high
roughage system of feeding, sta
ton livestock specialists will show
farmers how to obtain a cud SAM
pie and use it for calf inocula-
ton. Roughage in calf's early
diet promotes better health, re-
duceS costs.
Dairy Day visitors will also
learn how to dehorn cattle by an
electrical method. They will see a
set of identical twins and learn
what research is accomplishing by
studying them.
C. F. Rogers, popularly known
to many Ohioans as Mr.. Silage,
will demonstrate good silage prac-
ticeS and show the differences be-
tween good and poor silage for
dairy cattle.
A session on fly and insect con-
troll will bring together the states
top specialists to tell and show
visitors how to prevent losses
through better control of these
pests. This section will also fea-
ture the regional rodent control
specialist, VIM. D. Fitzwater of the

Always popular with visiting
Ohio dairymen are the guided
tours of the stations model pas
ture farm where staff members
will show what to expect from

thod was estimated at 1878.

the post, was mailed a check for
$19.59 for his idea on a new traffic
opening from the largest post
parking area. Savings for the first

TIPS GIVEN To
FREEZE PEACHES

Ohio homemakers planning to
freeze local peaches when they
appear in peak quantity and quail
ity at markets may be interested
in tips from Wilbur Gould, horti-
culturist at Ohio State Univer-
sity.
He says peaches, properly rip
ened, peel easily when immersed
in boiling water 80 to As seconds
and cooled Immediately in cool
water. Peaches should be cut in
half and pits removed. Slicing the
halves speeds freezing. Best pre-
ventive against darkening is to
slice the fruit into a container
and cover it with sirup contain
ing an anti-oxidant. An anti-oxi-
dant is necessary if peaches are
not Red Havens.
Ascorbic acid, obtainab!e at
most drug stores or locker plants,
should be used in the proportions
of l teaspoon of the crystalline or
powdered form to / gallon of
chilled sirup.
Citric acid, which is in lemon
juice or available in crystalline
and powdered form is less expen-
sive. 1t is used at the rate of l tea
spoon to a quart of sirup. 1t may,
however, give an undesirable cit
ric flavor.
Sirups should be made in ad-
vance and chilled, so that freezing
is faster. Homemakers should add
anti-oxidants just before pouring
sirup over the fruit for freezing.
A sirup pack is better thar dry
sugar. Dry sugar requires too
much anti-oxidant to prevent dis
coloration and air is difficult to
exclude, Gould says. His standard
recommendation is 40 percent
sirup, made with 31s cups of sugar
dissolved in 4 cups of water.
