The second quarter was a sea

But in the closing minutes OF
the half, Napolean received
Brave punt on his fifty and rae

stop the threat On the runbaek,
quarterback Leslie Nettles fun

Rep. Leroy Johnson, of Calf
ornia, said the Committee might
go considerable further than in
vestigating "subversive activities"
because it was also authorized to
determine which things were not
in keeping with tradition" He
asked: "Who is there that by in
vestigation can develop the mold
to which all of us must conform
to be in harmony with American
traditions?"
A Minnesota Democrat, Rep.
Eugene Mccarthy, said he under
stood the American tradition" as
one (which does not insist on I'M
iformity or strict conformity, but
rather as a tradition of political
unity which allows for individual
and group indifferences." Nc
Carthy said he found it brighten

Congressman of the Jewish
faith anticipated in 1852 that the
Committee might affect their CO.
religionists. Rep. Arthur G. Klein
of New York, said the Com
mittee's proponents were "appar-
emily upset by the fact that some
foundations are today using their
funds to promote better race re-
lations."
Another New Yorker, Rep.
Louis B. Heller, said the resolu-
ton creating the Committee ap-
peared to him to have "the pro-
perties of a fishing expedition =
and loaded with an Interior mo-
tive" Rep. Emanuel Celler pre-
dicted that the Committee would
make allegations against racial
and religious minorities.
If the ADJ is guilty of "indoc-
trination," it may have indoctrin-

Sen. Joseph R. Mccarthy has met

Under later questioning by
MIR. Williams. Gen. Lawton tes-
titled as follows about the con-
versation with Gen. zwicker9
Gen. Lawton-I had been be-
fore the Mccarthy Committee

had been, by invitation, attend
Ing i've other times when the
employees Of Fort Monmouth
were there on interrogation.
These were closed sessions.
In this discussion, feeling this

to convince him that what ] had
seen and heard myself as q result
Of these seven days or nights,
or combinations. that didn't
think the attitude was proper.
Mr.. Williams--What attitude?
Gen. Lawton-The attitude Of
being yantagonistic against the
Senator. Mccarthy.
Mr.. Williams - Did you tell
him these things after he had
expressed his antagonism toward
Senator Mccarthy?
Gen. Lawton-No. I wouldn't
say there was any before or az
ter. I would say after ] had left
his Office that was the impress
sion ! had as a result of our
conversation.

months before Gen. Zwicker's
appearance on the stand in New
York; is that right?

ton turn around the work Of the
Mccarthy Committee, at Fort
Monmouth. in getting rid Of
security risks?
Gen. Lawton-It did by me;
yes, sir.
Mr.. Williams-Did you tell
this to Gen. Zwicker, tell about
this work?
Gen. Lawton-Yes, sir.
Mr.. Williams-When you fin
ished telling about this work,
was Zwicker's attitude the same
as 1t had been, as you termed
1t, antagonistic?
Gen. Lawton - I previously
said. and I don't think that I

there is no halo that surrounds
the throne. I may say that his
language concerning me was
much stronger than that. but If
you think q man is senile, he is
engaging in improper activities,
you have a perfect right to say
that you think he is senile. That
is part of our freedom of speech.
After the obscenities he had
voiced about me, the ridiculous
statements he had made, I was
convinced he was senile. had a
perfect right to say that /
thought he was senile, regardless
whether he was a Senator or
not.
Mr.. De Furia-Did the Senate
of the United States instruct you
that you had the power to OBJ
tain information of wrongdoing,
regardless of orders of the Pres
ident or executive officials, and
regardless Of proper markings Of
classified material?
Looking for "Wrongdoing"
Senator McCarthy-Not re-
CARELESS Of proper marking. We
are not looking for. atomic energy
secrets, we are not looking for
the type of material defined in
the instructions Of secret" "top
secret" and confidential" which
IS in the hands Of the Chair.
we are looking for evidences of
wrongdoing.
Under the Reorganization Act,
the committee Of which I am
chairman is charged with the re-
sponsibility Of ferreting out that
wrongdoing. AS chairman Of the
subcommittee. I have that duty,
and ! cannot perform that duty
unless those who know of the
wrongdoing bring the informa-
tio1 to me.
Mr.. De Furia-As I under
stand it. you feel that. in the
proper performance Of your
duties, you should have given
this public instruction or invita-
ton, soliciting the information,
even though the persons who
would supply you with this in
formation would be violating the
orders of the President of the
United States and their own SUI
periorS?
Senator Mccarthy do not
think the President Of the United
States has ever issued an order
saying he wanted to cover up
wrongdoing.
MIR. de Furia-That is not the
question, Senator, and ! wish you
would answer.
Not Seeking Classified Material.
Senator McCarthy-If I may
answer, I do not think that you
can say that the President has
ever issued an order saying you
must cover UP evidence of graft
corruption, treason and commu-
nism. He has issued an order
saying that. If it falls within the
category which I have handed to
| the Chair, that. then. it will be
classified: and we have never
asked for any Of that type Of
material, nor do I intend to ask
for that type Of material
Mr.. de Furia The question
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1954-09-12

sir, Is whether Senator Mccarthy
invited or instructed the Govern
ment employees to bring him in
formation regardless Of any clas-
siflcation; and regardless Of any
order Of the President or the
Executive Department: the
Army, FBI, and so forth.
Senator McCarthy-The an
swer to that is no. because feel
the President has never ordered
that information on wrongdoing,
graft, corruption, and treason. be
classified.
Mr.. de Furia-Does that mean,
Senator, that you were inter-
preting the Presidents orders
contrary to what the Attorney
General of the United States has
interpreted them in official COM
munications and opinions? Is
that what you mean, sir?
Senator McCarthy-I wouldn't
compare my Interpretation with
the Attorney General; all I say
is that I don't think our Presi-
dent feels that you should clas-
sify information of graft, COR
ruption, Communism, treason. 8
I don't think there is any such
oroer. -. AS ~ a4atg4
Watkins Defines Issue.
The Chairman What I think
we are trying TO get at. and
what the committee Is interested
in knowing Is, whether you asked
for Information which, under
the regulations the President
had set up and approved, If
they had ito give 1t. whether
they should give that kind Of
information where apparently
some instruction got out and
some authority has been given
to executive department officials
to mark certain documents and
information classified.
Senator McCarthy-They have
only got authorization to mark
them classified if they come
within the categories which
have handed to you, Mr.. Chair
man. We have not asked for
that information.
The Chairman-Of course,
think that we will all agree that
the President Of the United
States would not want to pro-
tect. nor issue an order to pro-
tect. wrongdoers. I think
counsel was trying to find out
with respect to the actual in
struments that had been marked
classified. Is that what you had
in mind?
Mr.. de Furia-Yes. sir. that's
correct, sir.
Senator McCarthy-Somebody
Illegally marks something clas-
Sified--
Mr.. de Flria-Do you take II
upon yourself to decide that il
is illegally marked classified. OF
II j. Edgar Hoover marks il
classified. doesn't that make il
classified?
Senator McCarthy-Let's not
drag j. Edgar Hoover into this
| The Chairman - That is O
proper question.
Senator McCarthy-I have had
no documents marked classified
by j. Edgar Hoover.
