Dispute on Numbers
In Subversive Firings
RACES in Congress
BY the Assoeioted Press

An arithmetical dispute is rag
ing among members of Congress
as to how many of the 1900 Fed
eral employees cut of the payroll
under the Eisenhower admins
tration's security program were
fired for actual subversive activ-
ity.
Representative Walter, Demo-
crat. of Pennsylvania said yes
terday the number was no more
than seven. Senator Mccarthy,
Republican, of Wisconsin said the
correct figure was more than SO
per cent, which would be more
than 1,100.
The Eisenhower security pro-
gram. broader than preceding
loyalty programs, directed re-
moval Of Federal employees who
were considered security risks.
Habitual drunkenness. homosexu-
ality, and lack of discretion, as
well as actual disloyalty. are
grounds under present policy for
considering an employe such a
risk.
No Breakdown on Causes.
There never has been any off,
cial breakdown of the causes for
the security firings under the
present administration. Gen.
Eisenhower in his state-of-the-
Union message Thursday gave
the total as 1900.
Mr.. Walter, a member of the
House Un-American Activities
Committee, said in an interview
the President tried to give the
impression that "all were secur-
ity risks because of Communist
affiliations"
He added he had learned from
sources other than the Civil
Service Commission that there
are at most seven who were at
any time members of prescribed
organizations"
But Senator Mccarthy. chair
man of the Senate Investigations
subcommittee, said.
Il know for a fact that the
number separated because OF
Communist acts. Communist
connections, is much more than
so per cent. If you lump to-
gether the firingS for Communist
activities and for sexual perver-
sion. it will run in the neighbor-
hood of 80 per cent"
November Drop Smaller.
Meanwhile, the Senate House
Committee on Reduction of Nom
essential Federal Expenditures
reported that the total number
Of Federal jobholders decreased
last November for the 10Th con-
secutive month.
The committee, which keeps
track of the payroll from the
viewpoint of economy, not Sc
curity. said the November drop
from the October total was 6,035.
1t brought the total reduction
for the preceding year to 1913 ,897.
President Eisenhower told Con-
gress Thursday that since he
took Office January 20, 1858. the
Government is getting along
with $4,000 fewer employees.
Decreases began in the summer
of 1852.
The Federal civilian payroll
in November totaled 2,366,710
persons.

BY the Assoeiosed Press

Newest carrier based Navy
night fighter, the F3H-1N Demon,
is now officially rolling of the

The swift jet craft rates "fast-
er than 500 miles an hour"-ex-

Constontine Brown

There is something wrong
with the diplomacy of our
democratic governments. They
are moved frequently by
generous impulses and make
political moves and promises
which are subsequently shat
tered by the immovable viii Of
the relationships.
The present Italian crisis.
which is leading to new elec-
ton and probably to a
Communistsdom gov
ernment. is the sequel to the
failure of the Western powers
to return the city of Trieste
to Italy. This was solemnly
promised on October 8 last
year by the American and
British governments.
After last summers election
in Italy the man who had pre-
sided over the turbulent do
mestic affairs Of Italy, Pre-
mier Alcide de Gasperi, was
defeated. He was replaced by
a middle-of- -the-road young
political leader, Giuseppe
Pella, who agreed to form a
temporary government to get
the budget passed.
Pella turned out to be a
better man than expected. His
international orientation was
toward the West. But because
he lacked a majority, it was
thought that he could not
continue in Office after the
budget had been approved.
There was, however, one hope
for his continuance. That was
to get behind him the splinter
parties such as the royalists
and neo-faSciStS who together
represented some SIS votes. The
best method to do this was to
appeal to the nationalist emo
tions of the Italian people.
After short consultations,
Washington. London and Paris
discovered an iron-clad solu-
ton. We announced solemnly
that Trieste would be returned
to Italy instantly. Within 48

A Few Old Gionts
Still Hund-Weund
As Time Passes On
BY Sam Eostmon

Time is catching up with
Washington's tower clocks.
Over the last few decades, the
electrical age has been gradu-
ally overtaking these methodical
giants.
The old hand-wound, weight
suspension mechanism is dis
appearing In favor of the less
troublesome, If not 80 colorful,
electrical system
There are still q few holdouts.
One Is the massive Seth Thomas
In the 315-foot tower Of the
Old Post Office Building. Penn
sylvania avenue between Elev-
enth and Twelfth streets NV.
The aged landmark has re-
ceived new hands and an oc-
casional face-lifting. but that's
about all.
Wound Every Week.
Every Wednesday at 10 an, q
General Services Administra-
tion's operating engineer climbs
the steps to the tower to rewind
the weighted cable.
Columbus G. Reed, operating
engineer supervisor Of the Fed
eral Triangle buildings. explained
that it is simply tension, and not
springs, that motivates the gi-
gantic timepiece
Mr.. Reed of 238 First street
Sc. said that any eccentric be-
havior by the clock mechanism
is dealt with Immediately, as an
engineer is always available.
He said that, in addition to
the weekly winding chore. the
clock works are oiled each month
and there Is q general checkup
once a year.
Dislikes Winter.
The Seth Thomas dislikes win
ter weather. The hour hands
5h feet long-have stopped
when coated with ice. One Of
the engineers must reach
through q small trap door on
the face of the clock to knock
the ice or sleet loose.
Recently the / ton plus
weights caught. and the cable
lost the necessary tension. A
wooden shaft houses the weight
and pendulum. An engineer had
to be lifted up the shaft on a
boatswain's chair to get the
clock back In running order.
The tower clock has q dial
diameter Of IL feet and the Ro-
man numerals are 2 feet high.
A wooden compartment In the
center Of the tower houses the
timepiece works. and the shaft
extends down through the floor.
The hands on each Of the four
faces are operated by q drive
shaft. all Of which are connected
to q central rod rising from the
main mechanism.
Face-Lifting In 1887.
In 1887 the clock faces re-
ceived their first beauty treat
ment In II years. SCOT had ac-
cumulated and the hour figures
were obscured. Under the direc-
ton Of the National Park Serv-
ice, the frames and hands were
cleaned and painted.
Two more of the diversified
timepieces that are still operated
manually are located on the
grounds Of Soldiers Home, Rock
Greek Church road at Upshur
street NV.
One looks down from the hos
pital, and the other from For
wood Building.
Electrically powered tower
clocks are spotted throughout
the District on university
grounds, churches, banks and
other buildings.
Some Converted.
Some, the comparatively new
faces on the scene, have been
operated by electricity since they
were installed. Others have been
converted.
At least one-the New York
Avenue Presbyterian Church's
tower clock-has retained the
