Attorney General Seeks
Revision of Conflict of
Interests Legislation

Attorney General Brownell
soon will ask Congress to tighten
Jaws that bar former Govern
ment attorneys from switching
sides" in certain legal disputes
involving the Government.
Mr.. Brownell and the Justice
Department suffered a stunning
blow yesterday when the Gov
ernment's first big case on CON
f1ict of interests" got thrown out
of court before it ever reached
a jury.
Judge Charles F. Mclaughlin
of the U. S. District Court
for the District of Column
bia ruled that the Government
had no legal case against former
Assistant Attorney General Her.
bert A. Bergson.
Present statutes say that a
laWyer-within two years after
he leaves the Government-may
not press claim" against the
Government if he has handled
the same case earlier on behalf
of the Government. In the Berg
son case, the prosecution charged
that Mr.. Bergson handled anti
trust matters for both sides.
Judge Mclaughlin ruled. how
ever. that the claim" referred
to in the law meant monetary
claim and did not bar Mr.. Berg
sons efforts to win clients
exemption from antitrust prose-
cutionS.
Mr. Brownell told newsmen
about his legislative plans, but
he had no prediction about
what the Government might do
with a number of other CON
f1ict of interest" cases it had
planned to prosecute.

Hunters, Aided by Planes, Seek
MYSTERIOUS Mountain 'Critter|

A fully equipped Red Cross
mobile unit was on hand in case
of injuries.
The lure of a rare big game
hunt brought hunters to the
scene from a wide area. But they
had little to 60 on as to what
they were searching for.
Though the animal has been
only sketchily described by a
few residents who claim to have
seen it, the hunt is serious bust
ness. Chairman of the expedi-
ton is President Judge Charles
Scott Williams of the Lycoming
County Court.
The hunters were to stretch
in a line and march over
Bobst Mountain much as in
fantry skirmishers advance
The hunters-all over Is years
old-carried shotguns, the legal
weapon for the hunt. Rifles and
pistols were barred. The shot
guns could carry no shot charge

group would comb the entire
80, 000-acre Bobst Mountain
area.

Military Reserves
Badly Undermined
Senate Group Says
World War II Veterans
Call to Duty in Koreo
Is Held Big Foctor

A Senate committee said today
the Nations military reserves are
badly undermined.
1t blamed the shortage in large
part on the calling of inactive
reservists-many of them World
War II veterans-to duty in the
Korean war.
The Senate Armed Services
Committee issued a report stress
ing the Importance to national
defense Of "a strong ready re-
serve force" but it said its study
showed that the reserves Of all
the services are suffering from
a serious shortage of man
power"
The National Guard. the re-
port indicated. is in better shape,
but in need Of at least a years
training to be ready for combat.
Nearly Million Called.
The committee recalled that
nearly a million reServists were
summoned to active duty in the
Korean war and that most of
these were World War II vet
Grams.
1t noted that thousands of
these veterans were inactive
reServists. undergoing no train
ing and receiving no pay. while
thousands of active reservists
remained at home, although they
had been paid for training duty.
The calling of these men Gin

quent criticism leveled at the
Armed Forces Reserve program, E"
the report said.
This inexplicable policy Gre
ated an attitude of diStrust and
resentment on the part of the
non-paid reservists toward the
armed forces which still exists. I"
Many Obstacles Listed.
The report also said:
l. Many parents and wives re-
fuse to let sons and husbands
sign up for Reserve training for
fear they will be called up.
2. Some employers diScrimi-
nate against reServists because
of the time required for military
training or the possible loss of
the worker during a war.
3. Many reserve units are far
under strength. some with less
than a tenth of their authorized
personnel. Others have too many
officers. too few enlisted men.
The Air Force reserve has 1000
more officers than airmen
4. The turnover in some units
is so frequent that only basic
training is possible. Combat vet
Grams and skilled technicians get
no value from such training
S. There is critical shortage
of young pilots in Air Force and
Navy air reserve units. Aver
age age of pilots in many units
Is above 30.
6. Equipment in many units is
outmoded and left over from
World War II.
7. There is antipathy among
the regular services toward the
reserves.
Chairman Saltonstall said the
committee will hold early pub
lie hearings on the problem.

WILLIAMSPORT, Pa, Jan. 80.
A safari of 800 hunters, aided
by airplanes and a Red Cross
mobile unit. set out today to track
down the mysterious "critter of
Cogan House Township"
The "critter" is believed to be
either black panther, a noun
tain lion or a large bob cat. It
has been frightening game away
from the popular hunting area
on heavily wooded Bobst Noun
tain 20 miles northwest of here.
The mammoth hunt was or
gained this week when sports
mems clubs put up a $500 prize
for the person who bags the
beast. And some lucky dog who
catches the scent o, the "critter"
gets 100 pounds of dog food as
it's reward.
Prizes also were available for
any one bagging a bob cat or fox.
At least three airplanes were
volunteered to aid in seeking out
the animal whose tracks were
seen on Bobst Mountain 10 days
ago, A pack of so dogs was in

Senators 10 Confer
Over Week End on
Bricker Compromise
KnowIond Hopes to Offer
Agreeable Proposal
When Senate Reconvenes
By J. A. O'LeoN

Senate leaders were still trying
to find a satisfactory middle
ground between opposing sides in
the fight over the Bricker conSti-
tutional amendment to curb the
treaty-making powers of the
President.
The Senate is in recess until
Monday. but conferences will
continue, and Republican Leader
Knowland held out hope that the
text of a bipartisan substitute
may be announced when the
Senate reconvenes Monday.
The compromise the leaders
hope to agree on would get rid of
the administrators main objec-
ton to the Bricker plan-the
provision that treaties would
have to be accompanied by leg
islation before they could take
effect as internal law in the
United States.
Denies Setback.
Senator Knowland said the
fact that the substitute was not
introduced yesterday, as he had
hoped. did not mean the nego-
tiationS have suffered a setback.
The most encouraging devel-
opment yesterday was evidenced
that two of the chief supporters
of the Bricker plan showed more
interest in modifying it.
First, Senator Bricker, Repub-
lican, of Ohio, said he was con-
sidering the substitute being
worked on by the Republican
and Democratic leaders. And
while he did not commit him
self to it, he sat in on a long
conference with the leaders of
both parties late yesterday.
Second, Senator McCarran,
Democrat. of Nevada, one of the
strongest hackers of the original
Bricker plan, introduced a sub
stitute of his own, which modi-
fies somewhat his former posi-
ton.
Would Limit Effect.
The McCarran proposal states
that no future treaty would be
the supreme law of the land UNI
less made in pursuance of the
Constitution, and that a pro-
vision of a treaty or international
agreement which conflicts with
the Constitution would not be
of any force or effect.
Indications are that the lead
ers of both parties will stick to
the compromise suggested by
Senator George, Democrat, of
Georgia. although they may add
to it some provisions advocated
by Republican leaders. One of
these would require roll call
votes in the Senate on all
treaties.

More Details SOUGHT
On Financing Of D. {.
Works Program
Legislators Ask City's
Fiscal Officer to Talk
Over Tax Proposals
BY George Beveridee

The Districts plan for financ-
ing the proposed $305 million
public works program appeared
today to be headed for modifica-
tions-at least in the imposition
of new local taxes.
This implication was evident
as a joint House-Senate District
fiscal subcommittee fms h e d
hearing nearly so witnesses yes
terday and summoned District
Finance Officer James L. Martin
for a 1870 pm. meeting Monday
to hash over the taxation pro-
poSalS.
Subcommittee CHI arm a n
OHara. Republican. of Mime
sofa said, after a brief confer
ence with House members, that
some of them obviously have
questions about the proposals.
PERSONALLY l have reserva-
tionS on some of them, as well
as the possibilities of some other
taxes which might be included"
he added.
Two Main CategOries.
Mr. O'Hara declined to name
the reservations. Special in
terest the members showed to
questions raised by witnesses
during the extensive four days
of hearings, however, fell into
two general categorieS.
One included taxes witnesses
commended would be unfair and
discriminatory to small groups
of taxpayers. Most notable were
proposals to raise taxes on pre-
miums paid to local insurance
companies, and taxes imposed
on outof town bus lines that
come into Washington.
The second category, involv-

brought contentious that the
new rates would put local re-
tailerS at a disadvantage in
dealing with Maryland and Vir-
ginia competitors. Witnesses
warned that these taxes would
cause sharp drops in volume
sales. with subsequent revenue
losses.
The witnesses. during the
week. urged a wide variety of
proposals for boosting local
revenue. They included sales
tax raise from 2 to 3 per cent,
real estate tax reviSionS, exemp-
ton cuts in income taxes. pay
roll withholding taxes and taxes
on transient hotel rooms.
Calls for New Data.
Mr.. O'Hara instructed city
officials to have prepared by
Monday a vast amount of new
data dealing with virtually
every phase of the city's eco
nomic structure.
After the Monday session his
plans call for closed-door ses-
sions of the Joint group. to try
to agree on a single version of
the public works financing bill,
which can be presented in the
same form to the full House and
Senate District Committees. The
bill-dealing only with revenues
will have no reference to
specific public works projects,
since these will have to be re-
quested each year in appropria-
ton measures.
The Commissioners financing
plan, in addition to proposing
about $40 million more a year
in local taxes, calls for a SO
million raise in the Federal pay
