Political Change in California
departure OF Earl Warren From the States Political Councils
Leaves Control in the Hands of RiehtWinq Republicans

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 3d.
To a political reporter re-
turning to q California without
the towering figure of Earl
Warren in the Governors
chair, there comes a feeling
that something is missing and
that change is in the air.
That same feeling seems
also to prevail among Cali
fornianS, themselves.
Earl Warren, Governor for
IL years, had come somehow
to be synonymous with Cali
fornia, and vice versa, not only
here with his own people in
this great Empire State Of the
West, but with people all over
the country.

Clark Never Spoke His Piece
Truman Confidently Awaited Statement on White Case
From the Man He Named to the Supreme Court

Hoover testified that he did not
approve Of the course taken by
his then superiors while his
present chief, Attorney Gen.
eral Brownwell, beamed hap
PLY upon him. Presumably this
sets a precedent for the FBI
director to tell later congress
sional committees what he
thinks of the manner in which
Mr.. Brownell and President
Eisenhower are functioning.
1t is highly doubtful If any
one could take the limelight
away from Mr.. Hoover when
he chooses to assume it as he
did personally at the Jenner
hearing. Justice Clark was
nonetheleSs his superior at the
time of the White case and
the man upon whom the Pres
ident was relying for counsel
in a difficult situation.
The evidence in it's present
form. Of course, is highly sat
iSfactory to those Republicans
who want to use the Commu-
nists-in- Government issue for
the congressional elections
next year. Justice Clark has
declined a summons and they
have made no motion toward
enforcing 1t, which they prob
ably couldn't. or toward a po-
lite request for history.
They have got Mr.. Hoover,
and a better witness they
couldn't ask for. No story like
the White case ever really
ends, however, while the strong
personalities involved are alive
and kicking; there are definite
ly more headlines in the offing.

Of President Eisenhower, he
removed his hand and infiu-

part with Mr.. Truman and
Justice Clark.
The conferees at the Wal
dorf Astoria where Mr.. Tru-
mans telecast was shaped
were confident that Justice
Clark would speak out almost
simultaneously with his former
chief. Their bitterness against
him now knows no bounds.
One consequence of this firm
belief in Mr.. Clark's support
was the rejection Of any and
all suggestions that Mr.. Tru-
man should plead the climate
of the times. How different
that climate was from the one
now is a legitimate argument
deeply felt by everyone who
had the responsibility of fate
full decisions made then.
Perhaps this argument would
not in any case appeal to Har-
ry Truman in whom the habit

retort is ingrained. Neverthe-
less. it is an essential part of
the whole White story which
cannot honestly be told with
out it by either side.
In any case Mr.. Truman
went ahead with his defense
in which Justice Clark played
a crucial role and thunders of
silence have greeted it from
the marble palace of the SUI
preme Court.
In that silence the director
of the FBI was able to take a

Federal Employment
Declines by 2,7OO
lin October in Area

Federal employment in the
Washington Metropolitan Area
continued to decline in October
and stood at 221,7O0 at the end
of that month. the Civil Service
Commission disclosed today.
The October 81 figure repre-
sents a decline of 2,700 since
September 80. It also was a net
reduction of $4,000 in employ
ment since last January.
Overall civilian employment
of the Government likewise de-
clined. There was a total of
2,372,100 Federal employees Oc-
tober 81, a drop of $500 during
the month. This continued the
downward trend of the year.
Since January the total has de-
clined by about 10000, the COM
mission said.
Within the continental United
States, employment decreased by
25,600 during october to a
month-end total of 2,192. 800.
The Defense, Commerce, Agricul-
ture and Interior Departments
made the largest cuts.
overseas employment de-
creased in October by 5000 to a
total of 179,600. Employment in
overseas territories declined by
1900 and in foreign countries
by 1,700.
Employment by the largest
agencies on October 81 was: Post
Office, 5o0,30O (21 per cent of
the whole; Army, 471,600, GO
per cent?; Navy, 431, 900 18 per
cent?; Air Force. 289.100 (12 per
cent?, and Veterans Administra-
ton, 10000 g per cent?. These

with Mr.. Davies. He said the
Davies proposal theoretically
might have worked but that
his predecessor, Admiral Hill
lenkoetter, became alarmed
and rejected it.
Undersecretary Smith testi-
fed that he was unable ''to as
sess the motive. OF Mr.. Davies
in proposing the plan, but that
George F. Kennan. under
whom Mr.. Davies was serving
at the time in the State De-
partment. had written a letter
to the loyalty board saying he
felt some responsibility for Mr..
Davies work, though Mr.. Ken
nan did not specifically under
write the Davies recommends
tion." Mr.. Davies himself testi-
fled that the specific plan he
advanced was not based on
any direct instruction from
any one else.
Notwithstanding the friendly
nature of Mr.. Smiths testi-
mony and the fact that the
Loyalty Review Board of the
Truman administration last
January formally stated that
it had not found any ground
to declare Mr.. Davies ineli-
gible for Government service
on loyalty grounds, Senator
Jenner again wrote the De-
partment of Justice on June
II, 1858. asking that the per-
jury indictment against Mr..
Davies be pressed. William p.
Rogers, deputy attorney gen.
eral, wrote Senator Jenner on
July 6, 1858, that the depart
ment was making a review of
the case and had not reached
any final determination" The
letters were made public last
August.
That's where the matter
rests today. 1t has not been
clarified or settled, and Sen
ator Mccarthy was right in
saying that John Patton Davies
is still in Government service,
despite the testimony rendered
against him. It is to be noted
that the Presidents Loyalty
Review Board was never au-
thorized to pass on any ques-
tions of security" and in it's
letter to the State Department
the board intimated that it
questioned Mr.. Davies judg-
ment. Subsequently Mr.. Davies,
who had been serving as Dep
uty High Commissioner in
Germany, was transferred by
Secretary of State Dulles to
the American Embassy in Peru,
where he now is charge d.
affaires. At one time Mr.. Davies
was ordered home from China
at the request of Ambassador
Hurley because of the latter's
charge that Mr.. Davies was too
friendly to the Communist
cause in China.
There is talk of another Sc
curity investigation by the
State Department, which it is
reported Mr.. Davies himself
may formally request in order
10 clear up the matter.

Coast and Rocky Mountain
States.
One thing seems fairly clear.
This is that the Republican
Party in California is almost
bound to lose henceforth some
what of the progreS eSSive
coloration that Earl Warren
impressed on it by his own
personality and his views on
the diverse and complex social
and economic problems which
confronted his State because
of its almost fantastic growth
during the years of his COVER
norship. In fact, Gov. Warren'S
own philosophy expanded and
liberalized as he coped with
this multiplicity of problems
raised by the States growth.
That was an experience which
his successors in the Republic
can Party, whoever they
turn out to be, have not had
directly and personally, as
has he.
Nor has Earl Warren left
an heir after hiS-own image;
nor, indeed, an organization
than can function of itself.
There was never a Warren or
ganization as such. His follow
ing was personal following,
and a vast one. drawn not only
from the Republican Party, but
from Independents and Demo-
Gratis. The way the rank and
file of the other major party
fiocked to his standard has
had few parallels elsewhere.
the closest in our time per-
haps being the considerable
Republican support of the
Democratic Governor Frank
Lausche in Ohio.
Old-line, standpat Republic
cans, who cordially disliked the
Warren brand of Republican
ism, bucked when they could,
but had to go along usually in
the end. They are numerous in
California.
Now they see their opportun-
ity. They consider themselves

up in the State, though it
might turn out differently

Nixon and Senator William
F. Knowland, administration
leader in the Senate. Both Of
the latter aspire to control Of
the State. Each apparently
also sees himself some day as
the favorite son Of California
for the Republican presiden-
tial nomination-and a State
can have only one favorite son.
The two ambitious young men
