The driver has appealed the
departments action and hear
ing is to be held in Montgomery
County Circuit Court.
The State has filed a motion
to dismiss the appeal on grounds
it was made too late. Fifteen
days are allowed for appealing
a revocation, Mr.. Stanley said.
Mr.. Rudy, questioned about
the case, said that as far as he
was concerned, the matter was
out of his hands. If the appeal
is thrown out of court on a
technicality, he said, the youths

ton with out further means for
consideration of the merits OF
the case.
Mr.. Stanley sad that in his

would be glad to help reinstate
the license if the youth woulc
make application. But youne
Stanley says he doesn't want the

By the Associofed Press

NEW YORK, Nov. 28.-The
Senate Internal Security sub
committee said tonight it wants
to question Igor Gouzenko about
espionage reports concerning
men described as working in the
Offices of the late Secretary of
State Edward Stettinius and Ad-
miral Ernest King.
In a statement by Subcommit-
tee Chairman Jenner, Republi-
can, of Indiana the Subcommit-
tee said Mr.. Gouzenko may know
more about these cases and es-
pionage in the United States.
Robert Morris, committee
counsel, made public the Jenner
statement. which followed Sec
retary of State Dulles refusal to
ask Canada to change the con-
ditions laid down for questioning
of Mr.. Gouzenko.
The Jenner statement said the
whole matter of Mr.. Gouzenko's s
testimony will be taken up by
the subcommittee Wednesday.
Jenner Statement.
The statement:
According to security reports
now in the record of the Inter-
nal Security subcommittee, Igor
Gouzenko has Informed United
States authorities of at least
three distinct and important as
poets of espionage in the United
States that are being pursued by
the subcommittee.
"One concerns a man de
scribed in these reports as the
secretary of Secretary of State
Stettinius.'
Another concerns a man who,
according to Gouzenko, was a
named Soviet agent working dur
ing World War II in Admiral
Kings office.
The third concerns atomic
espionage in the United States.
1T is the duty of our subcom-
mittee to ascertain the precise
identity of these espionage
agents, if possible by sworn tes-
timony, from the original source
and with all possible circum-
stantial detail.
Seeks More Details.
"It also may be that Mr..
Gouzenko knows more about es-
pionage in the United States and
more details about these three
cases. Naturally in view of our
responsibility we must pursue
this inquiry as far as possible.
In view of Mr.. Dulles deci-
sion 1 shall submit the whole
matter before the Internal Sc
curity subcommittee when it
meets Gin Washington next
Wednesday,"

Driver Cleared in Bus Crash
Fights to Keep Driving Permit

The 17-year-old driver of a
Montgomery County day camp
bus which crashed last July is
embroiled in a fight to retain
his driving permit.
The permit of William S. Stan
ley, jr., of SOIL Greenway drive,
Bethesda, was revoked by the
State Department of Motor We
hicles on September %. The de-
partment acted after investigat-
ing the crash of the converted
panel truck which injured IL
children, one of them fatally.
The youths father said the
revocation was made because of
alteration of the address on the
permit.
A letter from w. Dana Rudy,
deputy commissioner of motor
vehicles. said the revocation also
was based on information that
Che youth blacKed out at the
