Physicist Identified
As Ex-Red Offered
Atom Job, Group Told

The Senate Internal Security
subcommittee has received testi-
mony that DR.. Lewis Balamuth,
a New York research physicist,
was offered a position with the
wartime atomic Manhattan
project although he had been
identified previously as a COM
muniSt.
The testimony, given by DR..
Balalnuth himself. was revealed
yesterday during subcommittee
hearing in which Ivan Hurlinger,
another New York physicist, re-
fused to say whether he is or
ever has been a Communist. Mr..
Hurlinger acknowledged. how
ever, that he had worked under
DR.. Balamuth during the war
on research projects of interest
to the Navy and the Army Signal
Corps.
Committee Counsel Robert
Morris said that DR.. Balamuth
was a cooperative witness be-
fore the subcommittee at a
closed hearing Tuesday. He
added that the physicist testified
he was recruited into the Com
munist Party in 1895 and began
drifting away from it during
1914.
Both Former Teachers.
Both DR.. Balamuth and Mr..
Hurlinger are former teachers at
the College of the City of New
York and were called as wit
nesSeS in the course of the sub
committees inquiry into the in
f1uence of Communists in edu-
catien. Mr.. Morris said DR..
Balamuth was excused from tes-
flying in public session because
of a heart condition.
According to the Balamuth
testimony released by the sub
committee, the physicist was
sought for confidential work on
the Manhattan project at the

University Of Chicago in 1943. He
remained only a few hours. it was
brought out, and recommended
another person for the position.
Dr.. Balamuth, the testimony
showed, was identified as a Com
munist before the New York leg
iSlative committee which investi-
gated communism in the New
York schools and colleges in
1940-41.
80 to 40 Were Reds.
Mr.. Morris said Or. Dalamuth
testified that between 80 and 40
members of the City College fac
ulty belonged to a Communist
unit when he was teaching there.
Mr.. Hurlinger. pleading the
Fifth Amendment privileges
against characterization, also
refused to say whether he was a
teacher at the Communist-run
Jefferson School of Social Science
in New York.
Trying to draw replies from
the witness. Senator Welker, Re-
publican of Idaho asked at one
point if he had ever voted for a

Henry w. GruneWald, the de-
vious Dutchman, mopped his
brow and moaned, II feel very
bad"
His face was flushed and his
voice faltering. AS a result, a
House Ways and Means Subcom-
mittee excused the so-called
mystery man from further testi-
mony late yesterday.
The subcommittee ordered him
back to the witness stand this
afternoon, but his attorney said
today Grunewald was suffering
from a respiratory ailment and
would not be able to appear.
The subcommittee wants to
ask him whether he paid income
taxes on all the lush fees he
collected for making confidential
investigation for such persons as
John L. Lewis and the late Presi-
dent Roosevelt's aide, Tommy
Corcoran.
Committee Counsel John E.
Tobin hit Grunewald with evi-
dence that he neglected to list
on his tax returns all the fees
he received. For an hour, Grune-
valid fought specific charges with
general replies, and finally cried,
I've never cheated the Govern
ment out of one cent as far as
income tax is concerned"
Counsel Protests.
When Grunewald mumbled in
answering other questions. up
popped his counsel, William Fl.
Collins.
This ceases to be an inquiry"
Mr.. Collins almost screamed.
when a man is in this condi-
ton, it becomes an inquisition!
"As a result of this hearing,
this man has had one heart at
tack-hiS second. And I need
not point out that a third attack
is ordinarily fatal. This commit
tee must cease this torture"

U. 5. Ship Sails With Fuel
Kept Out OF Red Hands
BY the Assoeiuied Press

SINGAPORE. May 14.-Ths
United States naval tanker Ca
haba completed loading 10000
tons of jet fuel from the Finnish
tanker Wilma today and sailed
for an unannounced destination.
The strategic cargo originally
had been consigned to Commu-
mist China.
The United States negotiated
for some three months with the
ships owners to prevent delivery
of the jet fuel from Red Romania
to the Peiping government. The
Wilma laid over here while the
deal was being worked out.
Early today sne still was
anchored at Sultan Shoal, about
IL miles from Singapore. where

TideIands Oil Law
Heads for Welcome
lon Presidents 5 Desk

Submerged lands legislation,
twice vetoed by former Presi-
dent Truman, headed for
welcome at the White House
today in the wake of House
adoption of a Senate bill for
State ownership OF undersea
areas.
A possibly less sympathetic
reception and longer delay in
the Senate awaitedsa companion
bill also passed by the House
late yesterday.
The bill on it's way to the
White House for expected sign
ing by President Eisenhower
would vest in coastal States the
title to underwater lands within
their traditional three-mile off,
shore limits or other historic
boundaries.
Provisions of Bill.
The bill on the way to the
Senate would establish Federal
jurisdiction in leasing. develop
ment and other operations in
presumably oil-rich submerged
lands on the continental shelf
beyond those State boundaries.
Such jurisdiction has never be-
fore been legislatively declared.
The House voted 278 to 116
to accept the Senate bill relat-
ing only to State ownership. The
Senate passed that bill last week
after talking 1t over for five
weeks.
Before completing congress
sional action on that bill, the
House voted 800 to 81 for a bill
of it's own to establish Federal
jurisdiction over the rest Of the
continental shelf which in places
stretches out as far as 200 miles
into the ocean or GUT of Mexico.
The House last month passed
a submerged lands bill contain
ing State and Federal control
features. The Federal control
bill it passed yesterday was
practically the same as a section
in the earlier measure.
"Haste" Criticized.
Opposition in the debate yes
terday centered largely on the
asserted undue haste and irreg-
ular procedure" of the House in
passing the separate bills in
stead of sending the Senate bill
to conference.
Advocates of State ownership
voiced fear that any conference
compromise would be thrown
into a filibuster in the Senate
and cause the death of the en-
tire legislation.
Republican Leader Halleck
told the House he had assurance
from Senate G. o. P. leaders that
| the separate bill on Federal
jurisdiction would be accepted
there. Representative Celler
Democrat. Of New York, pre-
dicted that it would be shelved
in the Senate.
Members disputed also over
whether the whoe thing would
wind up in the Courts. The
Supreme Court twice ruled that
the Federal Government has
paramount rights offshore to
submerged lands.

Two Daily Deliveries,
Higher Postal Rates
Asked on House Floor
By Robert K. Walsh

Restoration of two mail deliv-
cries a day and increased postal
rates for news and book publica-
tions were demanded at the start
of House debate today on a $3.4
billion appropriation bill for the
Post Office and Treasury Depart
ments.
A floor battle later today on
proposed amendments was fur
ther indicated when Representa-
tive Roosevelt, Democrat of New
York, announced he would move
for rider to permit the Presi-
dent to veto individual items in
the bill. He said he would pro-
pose such an amendment to
every appropriation bill from
now on.
Unlike the debate on previous
supply bills for the fiscal year
starting July l, the House dis
cussion today opened with some
complaints that the Appropria-
tions Committee did not go far
enough in cutting.
Virginia Hits Subsidies.
Representative Smith, Demo-
crat, of Virginia, declared that
the Post Office Departments op-
Grating deficit of almost $700
million a year could be wiped
out only if Congress appropri-
ated more money or enacted new
legislation such as higher postal
rates. He opposed more. spend
ing. He said, however. that Con-
gress should do something about
what he called subsidies" in
the form of comparatively low
postal rates on various kinds of
publications.
Mr.. Smith asserted that news
papers are making more money
than ever" He complained that
every time there is talk of rails
Ing postal rates on books We are
flooded by letters from book peo-
pie" He recalled also that when
former Postmaster General DON
aldSon tried to save some money
the house fell in on him."
Dispute on Deliveries.
This provoked a dispute over
daily mail deliveries. Repre-
sentative Madden, Democrat of
Indiana, urged that the two de-
livery system be restored. Rep
resentative Garfield, Republican,
of New York, spokesman for the
Appropriation Committee ex-
planned that this would add $50
million to the budget.
When he reported that Post
master Summerfield expected to
restore the two-delivery system
eventually, Representative Nc
Cormack, Democrat, of Massa-
chusetts, charged that Mr.. Sum-
merfeld has been vague on the
subject despite Republican plat
form promises to provide more
frequent mail service.
Republican leaders were conf
dent the House would approve
unchanged this fourth major
supply bill for the coming f1scal
year.

total of 81 games fer the In

But while they cry 1--WE wes'

pay cut ready for fourth Indian
pitcher-Bob Teller.
Teller hasn't received his con-
tract yet-he's due back in Cleve-
land today-but persons close to
the club said it is almost a GER
tainty that he'll get reduced.
He had a poor showing of nine
victories and ID losses last season
and was believed earning 5000
on the strength of great proceed
ing, season (22-S) and big drawing
power.
Whatever Teller is cut, it seemed
likely that it won't make up for
all the money his fellow pitchers
are asking. The requested saIar-
les, with raises in parentheses, are
believed to be roughly as follows:
Wynn - $S5, 900 (S5 ,00O); Lemon
-$45. 0G0 ($5,OOO); Garcia-$3O, 900
($9, 000).
Feller's cut, at most, would
amount to Is per cent, or $12, 800,
assuming the $4,000 is accurate.
