Grease that becomes hardened

The showdown game has been
called for the moment. possibly
on account of darkness.
AT least it was plain that 1t
had blundered into what Sena-
tor Potter, who inadvertently
started the whole thing, called
"the twilight zone Of executive
legislative relations"
The Republicans obviously
welcomed the encircling gloom.
The decision was made by the
umpire. President Eisenhower.
He would not allow the coaches
to reveal whatever strategy was
developed at q pre-gane con-
ference. i
The Democrats protested,
thereby ranging themselves with
the Republicans. who agreed
with Senator Mccarthy that un-
less they knew what the coaches
said the game could not be
played to the end.
The Presidents decision was
hung on the high peg Of the
separation Of executive and leg
islative powers. But to many
it was a powerful reminder that
all along the showdown was the
explosion Of an intra-mural
rivalry. It was like a long feud
between the accounting depart
ment and the file clerks Of the
same firm. 1t got so bitter f.
nally, 1t was bad for business.
Atmosphere of Letdown.
Senator Dirksen. the most
jealous advocate of the view
that the Army charges. if not
the Mccarthy, sides counter
charges. had sprung up in an
atmosphere of jovial goodfellow-
ship, offered the motion to give
the President time to think 1t
over.
The vote was taken in an at
mosphere of letdown.
Army Counselor Welch took
one Of his pills, glumly slipped a
glass of water. John Adams
leaned his chin on the micro
phone he had never approached
closely enough to please his
questioners. Then he yawned.
Senator Mcclellan sat with his
arms folded squarely facing Sen
ator Mccarthy, who was telling
the hearing of his thought that
the President "is a reasonable
man."
Senator Symington, who forced
the issue with his request to
John Adams for a note from the
White House, and Senator jack
son, who thought the White
House should have made up its
mind a long time ago, leaned
back in perplexed resignation.
A Bitter Pill.
And when the motion had car
ried, on strict party lines, Mr.
WEIGH, a bitter pill swallowed

edged asking Mr.. Cohn to obtain
theater tickets for him and do
other favors after the time Mr..
Adams says he was abused and
subjected to "obScenitieS" used
by Mr.. Cohn in conversations
regarding Pvt. Schine.
"Any conversations regarding
the charges, Senator Mccarthy
said. should be right out on the
table"
He refused to indicate what
course he would take if the pres
idential order is left in effect.
IT cannot speculate on what
will happen" he remarked. II
can't conceive Of the President
leaving it stand"
The Wisconsin Republican said
Mr.. Stevens has said he wants
"all the facts" brought out. He
suggested Mr.. Stevens should un-
dertake to have the President
withdraw the order.
Despite strong assurances
from Chairman Mundt that I'VE
all want these hearings to con-
tinue, and we want to get out
all the facts" the impression per-
sisted in some quarters at the
Capitol that the Republicans
would be delighted if the whole
business could be speedily forgot
ten. The Presidents order, it
was felt. could easily form the
basis for a decision to wind
the basis for a decision to wind
up the hearings altogether, on
the ground that Senator Nc
Carthy would be unable to de-
velop his case as long as ad-
ministration officials are barred
from testimony.
The view was lent support
by the obvious pleasure of Sen
ator Mccarthy at the sudden
turn of events, and the apparent
satisfaction shown by Senators
Dirksen, Potter and Dworshak.
Brownell on New Task.
Meanwhile, almost unnoticed
in the furry over the January
81 meeting, the subcommittee
learned that Mr.. Brownell is at
work on another aspect of the
matter which may involve Sen
ator Mccarthy directly. This Is
the two and one-quarter page
document, purporting to contain
excerpts from a 15-page FBI re-
port on espionage at Fort Mon
mouth, which the Senator said
he got from "a young officer in
Army Intelligence"
Senator Mundt asked Mr..
Brownell last week to reverse an
earlier decision and permit pub
lication of excerpts from the Nc
Carthy document. In a letter to
Senator Mundt, Mr.. Brownell
again refused and added this
significant paragraph:
"The department has under
consideration at the present time
possible violations of the GRIM
inal law as a result of the re-
ferral Of the transcript of the
hearings to the department by
Evening star., 1954-05-18

a mistake, because the effect OF
it will be in all probability to
terminate these hearings with
out our being able to get the
truth. We are not interested
in a one-sided hearing, and this
effect would give us only one
side. If we cannot get the whole
truth on all sides, then III my
Judgment the hearings are ter
minated.
r. Seek Modification.
Senator Mundt also told re-
porters that half a case can't
be presented"
"We are in recess for the pur-
pose Of trying to get an inter-
probation or a modification OF
an understanding of the execu-
tive order to permit us to find
out who was responsible for the
Army's charges" Senator Mundt
said. At present we are stymied."
Senator Mundt denied that the
Subcommittee's action "even re-
motely implies a discrimination
Of the hearings" The sole objec-
tive, he said. was trying to find
some modus operandi by which
we can continue to get out all OF
the facts"
The Army's charges. first ar
ranged by Mr.. Adams as a
chronological record and later
presented as a formal report, as
sert that Senator Mccarthy, the
regular chief counsel of the SUBJ
committee, Roy M. Cohn, and
subcommittee staff director,
Francis Carr, brought undue
pressure to bear in behalf of
Pvt. Schine. Pvt. Schine,
wealthy heir to a hotel chain for
tune. served as an unpaid chief
staff consultant before being
drafted into the Army.
Senator Mccarthy and his
staff counter-charged that the
Array was holding Pvt. Schine as
a hostage" in an attempt to
block the Senator's investigation
OF suspected subversives at the
Army Signal Corps radar labora-
tories at Fort Monmouth, N. j.
i. Senator Mccarthy also de-
manded that the administration
lift its iron curtain" and permit
the top officials to testify. He
remarked that he didn't think
the President knew what he was
doing when he signed the order.
II think the President will
rescind the order," the Senator
said. There is no reason fo1
it to stand.
II think it will be necessary to
call all of them and question
them in detail not only about
that meeting but also about any
subsequent meetings touching or
the controversy"
Senator Mccarthy said that as
far as he is concerned, it has
been established already that
the charges against Mr.. Carr
are "a complete fraud"
AS for those against Mr.. Cohn
he said Mr.. Adams has acknowl.

dent Eisenhower to relax his
order.
With the embittered hearings
in one-week recess until next
Monday morning the situation
stands thus:
l. Army Counselor John
Adams testified on Thursday
that he was directed by Pre-
Sidential Assistant Sherman
Adams to prepare a chronology
ical record of presSures allegedly
exerted by Senator Mccarthy
and his staff to obtain prefer
entail treatment for Pvt. G.
David Schine. The meeting was
held January 81 at the Justice
Department, and was also at
tended by Attorney General
Brownell, Deputy Attorney Gen.
eral William Rogers, White
House Administrative Assistant
Gerald Morgan and Ambassador
Henry Cabot Lodge.
Mccarthy Echoes Demand.
2. Democratic committee mem
bers Mcclellan of Arkansas,
Symtngton of Missouri and Jack
son of Washington Immediately
demanded that these officials be
called to testify. The demand
was promptly echoed by Senator
Mccarthy.
3. On Friday Mr.. Adams re-
turned to the stand to advise the
subcommittee that he had been
instructed by Assistant Defense
Secretary Robert Anderson not
to testify on the meeting. The
subcommittee gave Mr.. Adams
until Monday to produce a
written directive.
4. Yesterday President Eisen-
hover himself took a hand with
a letter to Defense Secretary
Wilson which was read into the
subcommittee record. Citing
precedents going back to George
Washington, it asserted that teS-,
timony on the Justice Depart
ment meeting would be an in
fringement upon the confidential
relationship between the Presi-
dent and his advisers. Theree
fore. the President said, the
officials involved would not be
permitted to testify, nor would
Mr.. Adams be allowed to testify
any further on that particular
subject.
S. After a lengthy closed ses-
sion yesterday afternoon, the sub
committee met in public session
to adopt a motion by Senator
DirkSeh, Republican, of Illinois
declaring a one-week recess un-
til next Monday. The motion
also directed Acting Chairman
Mundt, Republican, of South
Dakota and Special Counsel Ray
H. jenkins to confer with Mr..
Brownell and the President in an
attempt to get a modification of
the order which might permit
some testimony on the meeting.
May Never Resume.
6. Senator Mundt and Mr..
jenkins are scheduled to meet
with Mr.. Brownell today. But
their efforts are not believed
likely to have much chance of
success. And this may very well
mean that the Mccarthy hear
ing will never resume.
Senator Mcclellan, in fact,
said both in the public session
and to reporters later that the
only effect of the order would be
to terminate the hearings.
"The President has a right to
deny the committee information
on his reason for making a de-
cision, or relating to conversa-
tions which took place." the
Senator said. but once the de-
cision has been made and acted
upon, I do not think he can
deny the committee information
on the consequences of it.

Mccarthy Attacks
Office Of Presidency

NEW YORK, May 1S.-The
Roman Catholic weekly America
said in an editorial yesterday
Senator Mccarthy, Republican.
of Wisconsin, vas attempting q
"piecemeal and peaceful over
throw of the Presidency"
The publication said the
Army-McC Carthy hearings have
"dramatized across the nation
the grave constitutional issue
posed by Senator McCarthy's
methods"
Senator Mccarthy is a Catho-
lie. The nationally distributed
magazine is published by men,
bers of the Jesuit order. It's
editor is the Rev. Robert C.
Hartnett. ... .,

the only Office filed by national
election, and under the principle
of separation Of powers, is di-
rectly delegated by the people
as the executive authority.

whether or not the President
is properly diScharging the duties
assigned him by the people -
the magazine said, sis for the
people as a whole to decide-not
the Junior Senator from Wis
conSin, on whom the American
people never had a chance to
vote"
The magazine said the incident
of the confidential FBI letter, F."
which Senator Mccarthy said
he got from an Army Intelli-
gence officer, illustrates the use
of the rule of men" to defy the
"rule of law"-the hallmark
of free government"
Noting Senator Mccarthy re-
fused to name his informant, the
magazine said:
"The mere fact that his in
formant had violated his oath
of Office, had violated Army regu-
lation 380-10, had violated an
executive Order Of March Is,
1948, and had possibly even vio-
lated the Internal Security Act
Of 1850 meant nothing to the
Senator.
Hits Mundt Ruling.
"Worse still, Pro Tenn Chair
man Mundt, on advice from
Subcommittee Counsel Ray
jenkins, ruled that Senator Nc
Carthy, like all law-enforcing
officers had no duty to reveal
the source of his information.
"Why they regarded the sub
committee as a law enforcing
agency they failed to reveal
perhaps because it is a law
making, not law-enforcing
body"
Mccarthy seems to think
that all the operations Of the
Government boil down to one:
Eliminating people he judges
Subversive." the magazine said,
adding:
"If he insists on his piecemeal
and peaceful overthrow of the
presidency. he may do great
harm to u. S. policy by his so
far very successful diversionary
tactics"

trickles. Only a mile from
the Fairfax Stone, the stream
is large enough to demand the
first Potomac River bridge. A
small stone structure allows
the water to pass under a
road to Kempton, w. Va, a
town so tiny it is not listed
on many road maps.
Rapidly growing in size, the
river hits it's second bridge
10 miles from the source at
Wilson, w. Va. There it was
powerful enough to do some
flood damage following Hur-
ricane Hazel. Passing by
Keyser, w. Va, it streams
into Cumberland, Md, where
the Chesapeake & Ohio Canal
starts. AT Cumberland, it is
fed by infamous Wills Creek,
a sewage-laden stream which
gives the Potomac its first
pollution.
Bending and winding its
way downstream, forming the
tortuous boundary between
Maryland and West Virginia,
the Potomac stretches to
within a few miles of the
Pennsylvania line at Hancock,
Md. Then it turns south
through Wiliamsport and
eventually to historic Har-
pers Ferry, where Maryland,
West Virginia and Virginia
meet.
Now the dividing line be-
tween the Old Dominion and
Maryland, the river passes by
Point of Rocks, Great Falls
and into Washington. Turn
ing farther south, it streams
by Mount Vernon, Indian
Head and Colonial Beach and
finally merges with the Ches-
apeake Bay at Point Lookout.
The Potomac River valley
is rich in history. Its early

occupants were members Of
three major Indian groups,
Algonquin, Iroquois and Sioux.
The Indians were pushed out
by Colonial settlers by l754.
With the interest of leading
families of Virginia and
Maryland, including the
Washingtons, Masons, Mer-
GERS and Lees, the Ohio Co.
was chartered in 149. It had
a prominent part in develop
ing the river valley, establish
ing a regular trade route
along the Potomac and Indian
trails from Alexandria to the
Monongahela River near
Pittsburgh.
Following the French and
Indian Wars and the Revo-
luton, Virginia supported
George Washington's plan for
the Potomac Co. which i'm
proved navigation of the
river. Later, the canal, be-
gun in 1928 and finally COM
pleted from Washington to
Cumberland in 1850, promoted
trade along the river. During
the Civil War, the river was
involved in five major opera
tions: McClellan's West Vir-
ginia campaign (1861), Jack
sons Valley maneuvers (1S62),
the invasion of Maryland and
the Battle of Antietam 1882,
the invasion of Pennsylvania
t1863), and Jubal Early's raid
on Washington (186A.
