ve|de Committee Fires
Aide in False Charqe

A staff member Of the House
Committee on Un-American
Activities held responsible for
false charge against Mrs.
Agnes E. Meyer has been fired.
The committee withheld the
name of the dismissed employe.
Chairman Velde, Republican, Of
Illinois, had announced previ-
ously that the man had been
suspended.
Mr.. Velde said it was on the
basis of information supplied
by the staff worker that he made
q statement that Mrs. Meyer,
wife of the chairman of the
board Of the Washington Post,
wrote a letter to q Soviet maga-
zine praising the Russian peo-
Pile. Mr.. Velde later retracted
his statement and said his
charge against Mrs. Meyer was
a case Of mistaken identity.

Driver Tries to Avoid Trouble,
Piles Up Chorqes in Haste

Pvt. Hewgill said Vedi ex-
planned he was on parole and
feared he would have to go back
to prison if he became involved
with the police again.
He was charged with going so
miles per hour in a 25-mile zone,
violating a no left turn sign,
unreasonable speed leading to an
accident, violating a one-way
street sign and hit and run.
When he appeared before
Judge George D. Nelson in Mu-
nicipal Court today, Vedi pleaded
guilty to the charges of hit
run, speeding and driving wrong
on a one-way street.
Judge Nelson sentenced him
to $100 fine or go days on the
hit-run charge, $50 or 80 days
on the speeding and $40 or S
days on the third charge. The
other two were dropped.

block of E street NV. at 2 am.

It was his second arrest of

law, was brought into the trial
again today when Mr.. Rand
questioned Mr.. Biskind.
Q. Did you ever know Steve
Nelson?
A. No, sir.
@. Were you ever in his home? i?
A. No, sir.
One of the perjury charges
against DR.. Weinberg is that he
testified falsely to the House
committee that he had not
known Nelson prior to 1949,
when the two faced one another
at committee hearing.
Attempts to ask the slender,
sharp-faced Biskind if he be-.
lieved in God or divine guidance
were ruled out by Judge Holtzoff.
Yesterday Mr.. Biskind testified
he still accepts Marxist theories.
Warned on Language.
The judge warned Mr.. Rand
against using "opprobrious
terms" when addressing the wit
ness. Mr.. Rand several times
had questioned the witness
sharply about his admitted false
statement to the FBI.
Near the end of the cross-ex-
animation, Mr.. Rand asked these
questions:
@. Have you ever been con-
fused with Joseph Weinberg
here?
A. Not to my knowledge. It
could have been.
Q. You are known as "Joe"
among your acquaintances, are
you not?
A. Yes. sir.
An early report of the House
committee, which had identified
DR.. Weinberg as Scientist K, re-
lated the tale of a man known
as Joe" who called at Steve Mel
sons home on several occasions
since this Joe" was identified
by the committee as Joseph
Weinberg.

operated closely in putting over
the highly successful inaugural
program in honor of President
Eisenhower last month.
Differences. Denied.
Mr.. McGarraghy insists there
is no difference between party
leaders on Commissioner ap-
pointments. About all that can
be said. he declares, is that Col
Strong has Endorsed a candidate
while he has not yet indorSed
any one.
Col. Strong is backing Spen-
Ger. It Is assumed that Chair
man McGarraghy could assure
the lawyers selection if he, too,
gave an Endorsement. The chair
mans support of some one else
probably would altar the sit
uation.
An interesting legal question
may be raised If President Eisen-
hover should appoint q second
Commissioner, because Mr.
Camalier contends his status is
unaffected by the change in
administrations.
Those who agree with his
Interpretation cite the case OF
William e. Humphrey. whom
President Franklin D. Roose-
velt removed as a Federal Trade
Commissioner in 1888. The
President fired the Republican
after Mr.. Humphrey refused,
three times, to resign.
The case was taken into court.
Mr.. Humphrey died in 1884, but
his widow sued the Government
for his salary from the date Of
his removal until he died. The
Supreme Court ruled the Presi-
dent violated the Constitution
in forcing Mr.. Humphrey from
the quasi-judicial post on the
FTC.
Those who disagree with Mr..
Camalier say the Humphrey de-
cision is not applicable in this
case. They contend the Board
of Commissioners Is a part of
the Executive Branch of the
Government, answerable to the
President. With this reasoning,
they believe Commissioners
serve at the will of the Presi-
dent, regardless Of any term
specified at the time of appoint
ment.

questing the Job list, so pre-
Sumably it should be available
to the public as well. It will be
a week or so before the GPO
completes the printing job.
Meanwhile. the csc remains
firm in its decision not to turn
over to Senate Republicans the
list Of 125.000 indefinite Jobs
that pay at least $4,000 a year.
Despite the Senate's denial that
it wants the job list for patron
age purposes, the csc feels that,
since these jobs are under civil
service, they should not be made
available as a list. Unless the
White House orders otherwise
the CSC plans to stick to it's
decision. OF course, the new
civil service commissioners, who-
ever they may be, may take an
other view Of the matter.

Maryland to Go Ahead
With Peace Cross Plan

Maryland officials are going
ahead with their plan to raise
the roadways in the Peace Cross
area at Bladensburg, despite pro-
tests from property owners that
the project will aggravate their
troubles during flood conditions.
Mayor John N. Torvestad of
Colmar Manor has been notified
that bids will be sought as soon
as engineers complete their
plans. Chairman Russell H. Nc
Cain of the State Roads Com
mission said the project 'is not
to be considered as a flood con-
tDol plan but is being done in
order to make possible the free
movement of the heavy volume
of traffic that merges in the
Peace Cross area"
