Second Transcript.
Another transcript covered a
call on February Is from Secre-
tary Stevens to Senator Dirksen:
Mr.. Stevens: It worked lust
about like I told you it would.
and I can't buy it. I am going
to have to do something. It
may get drastic. I don't want
to do anything until all you fine
fellows that are working on
these big problems tell me what
you think. but I am NOT going
to leave it where it is. I think
I have been absolutely crucified
and the Services along with me.
And think it is just a shame,
and I think it has to be straight
ened out today Just what the
right thing to do is, I don't
know. My present thinking is
this, Everett, since I feel bound
by the fact that ! can't comment
on what went on yesterday. He
is not quoted in the papers, but
happen to know what he said
to some of the papers: and I
feel I have to ask that group or
the whole committee to reassem-
BILE and go back up there and
say this morning that I felt
bound and the whole thing is
so misunderstood by the press
and I will have to make state
ment-that I will have to make
statement. and I maybe even
tell them what the statement will
be.
Senator Dirksen-Who have
you talked to?
Mr.. Stevens-Last evening
with Dick and Karl.
Senator Dirksen-How late?
Mr.. Stevens-I didn't get him
until 1880. I talked with Karl,
with Charlie and I talked with
Jerry. Those are the ones
talked to, and I told all of them
my feelings. I said this thing is
just incredible; and the press,
because I can't explain what
happened. is just absolutely 60

done.

mony before the subcommittee
the following week.
Mr.. Stevens was scheduled to
go before the subcommittee in
place of Gen. Zwicker. In that
conversation, Mr.. Stevens in
formed Senator Dirksen that he
had an affidavit from the gen.
eral and that lit is going to be

is producer of the show.
It was in this capacity that
he suggested the Capitol Hill
staff use more "supers."
Mr.. RaSh'S duties with the pool
are only incidental, however, to
his duties with ABC. One of his
principal responsibilities is an ad
lib commentary on the hearing
Operating miles from the
scene of combat, he works alone
in a small, glass-inclosed booth.
He sits on high stool before
a slant-top desk that might have
been used by a country book
keeper long before television was
invented.
Centered on the desk top is a
TV monitor, carrying the cur
rent picture from the hearing
room.
Scans News Bulletins.
With one eye on the monitors
Mr.. Rash simultaneously scans
news bulletins received by tele-
type machine. This helps him
keep abreast of developments
elsewhere. Thus, he can weave
into his commentary q late
White House statement bearing
on the Army-McC Carthy contro-
verSy.
When the investigating COM
mittee receSses he summarizes
the testimony and reports peril
nent developments outside the
Caucus Room.
To perfect his show, Mr.. Rash
must keep in touch with many
people. His workshop is crowded
with gadgets. He is surrounded
by microphones, squawk boxes
telephones. tie-lines and blink
ing lights.
He can talk to almost any
body at will, including millions
glued to TV sets at home and in
corner saloons.
Mr.. Rash also has some clocks,
StopwatcheS, switches and push
buttons. When. the time comes,
he can close the switches and
talk to himself.

You can? Well, that's

In a matter of moments, mil

to identify principal participants
in the proceedings.
One Of Thousand Details.
BY his call. Mr.. Rash had at

This incident points up the
exacting duties of an expert

Names Of 7 Ex.GIs
Given 10 FBI After
Philippine Frauds

The Army today said it had
turned over to the FBI names
Of two ex-GIs who are wanted
in connection with a big conf
dence ring in the Philippines
which allegedly sought to collect
fraudulent claims from the Unit
ed States Government growing
out of World War II.
Pentagon officials, who said
that military police investigators
had recently turned up evidence
on the ring, asserted that the
two former soldiers were pre-
Sumed to be in the United States.
Among the charges to be
placed against the two Ameri-
cans are forgery of Army doc
uments, imperSonation of Army
civilian officials and the swim
ding of numerous Filipinos.
Based on Claims for Service.
According to an Army Spokes-
man this is the background Of
the story:
The two ex-GIS, who served in
the Philippines during World
War II, approached various Fill
pinos with the proposition that
they (the Filipinos) probably had
legitimate claims against the
United States for services rem
dered in the war against Japan
such services including the sup
plying of food and material to
guerillas in operations against
the Japanese.
The Filipino victims were told
that in order to push the claim
successfully they would have to
advance money to bribe Ameri-
can officials and cover expenses.
Later, when no word was
forthcoming from the American
Government, the Filipinos COM
planned to the ex-GIS. The
answer they received was that
the United States Government
apparently was reneging.
Letter Gives First Clue.
One of the intended victims
gave the first clue to the Army
on the existence of the fraudulent
claim operation. This was a let
ter signed by two officials of the
Army claims Office in the Philip
pines which was sent to Wash
ington along with a question as
to the status of the claim. The
Army then queried these officials
in the Philippines and learned
that they knew nothing about
such a claim and that the sigma
lures obviously were forged.
A military police Investigator
sent to the Philippines broke the
case after a months investiga-
ton.
The Army said it could give
no estimate at this time of how
much money the two ex-GIs
and their accomplices had OBJ
tanned, but they said that the
fraudulent claims involved to-
tailed millions of dollars.

might damage them" Then he
told Senator Mcclellan:
IT think you are being very
unfair, sir"
Senator Mcclellan disagreed
and added:
II am going to ask you this,
then, If the call would help you,
if the monitored note of this call
or any call with respect to Mr..
Schine would help corroborate
and substantiate your own state
ment here under oath how in the
world do you think that would
be unfair to you?"
Dislikes Selection"
"I think it would be unfair to
have a selection" Mr.. Cohn re-
piled.
The >monitored conversation
introduced by Senator Dirksen
involved three calls regarding
the furor that developed over
the testimony of Brig. Gen.
Ralph w. zwicker, commander
of Fort Kilmer. N. j., in the
Peress case and Mr.. Stevens
meeting with Republican mem
bers of the Senate subcommittee
last February.
The first Of the three calls
showed that Mr.. Stevens tele-
phoned Senator Dirksen at $50
am. last February 20 after he
had called on a number of sub
committee members to protest
what he described as Senator
McCarthy's abusive" treatment
Of Gen. Zwicker.

In that conversation MIR. Ste

that he had telephoned Senator

Mr.. Stevens as saying Senator

''With Dick and Karl"
The transcript showed Sen

was about an hour later. Sem
ator Dirksen called Mr.. Stevens
to report that he "had a hell of
a time rounding them up," but
had arranged a meeting in his
Office to discuss what Mr.. Ste
vens should do.
Before Senator Dirksen read
his own conversations with Mr..
Stevens into the record, Sena-
tor Symington, Democrat, of
Missouri. demanded to know
what was being done to get all
the calls into the record.
Senator Mundt, who has re-
placed Senator Mccarthy as SUBJ

Carthy controversy, said he

do.
Text Of Transcripts.
The text Of the transcripts
follows:
The first transcript concerned
a call on February 20 from Mr..
Stevens to Senator Dirksen:
Mr.. Stevens: Everett, I called
Senator Mccarthy this morning
I didn't know where he was yes
terday. but John Adams found
out that he was staying at the
Ten Eyck Hotel in Albany, and
just came of the phone with
him and I simply reported to
him that I had gone to various
members of the subcommittee
that were in town. and the SUBJ
stance of the conversation I had
with each one of you.
OF course he didn't like it, got
very mad about it and finally he
said "will you accept a subpoena
for 10 o'clock Tuesday morning
before the committee. said
would take it under advisement.
He said, "are you refusing?"
I said. ""I will take it under
advisement."
Wound Up in Subpoena.
I don't know whether I will
accept it or not. I just wanted
to post you that I talked with
him. I tried to tell him what
transpired and it wound up with
his subpoenaing me for 10 am.
Tuesday morning. That develop
ment thought you ought to
know and I thought T ought to
tell the other members and tell
them.
Senator Dirksen: I under
stand, Bob, those observations
that you gave me yesterday have
all been stricken from the record.
Mr.. Stevens: They have been.

It stated that while the mill
tary could not require a dis
charge in such cases, it could
compel the employer to bar the
individual from contact with

Mr.. Cohn replied that "as q
practical matter" such suspen-
sions and discharges never took
place.
Senator Jackson read a series
of questions in which he an
nounced that he wanted true or
false" answers.
Repeats Charges.
Mr.. Cohn repeated under oath
the charge that the Army at
tempted to blackmail the Nc
Carthy subcommittee into drop
ping it's investigation of Commu-
mist infiltration into the Signal
Corps center at Fort Monmouth,
N. j. That charge, he swore,
was true"
He went on to answer other
questions similarly, and at one
point declared that Army coun-
sell John G. Adams once said
Pvt. q. D. Schine deserved a
commission"
The Mccarthy side charges
that Army officials held Pvt.
Schine as a hostage" in order
to get, committee investigations

Chairman Mundt announced
at the beginning of today's ses-
sion that the subcommittee was
refusing to make public the
transcript Of it's executive ses-
sion which Assistant Secretary
of Defense H. Struve Hensel
maintains would vindicate him
of other charges leveled by Sen
ator Mccarthy.
At the same time the South
Dakota Republican released a
letter he had written Mr.. Hen
sci suggesting that the official
refer the charges either to the
House Government Operations
Subcommittee or the Senate
Armed Services Committee for a
hearing.
Asked to Testify.
Mr.. Hensel asked that the
transcript be made public and
that he be given q chance to
testify unless Senator Mccarthy
withdraws the charges or the
subcommittee diSmisses them on
the ground they are without
foundation.
Mr.. Hensel said he had been
informed Senator Mccarthy had
made statements at the May
II meeting indicating there
was no basis for the charges.
Senator Mundt said Mr.. Hensel
and others present at the May II
meeting would be furnished a
stenographic record of the pro-
ceedings but that it would be
marked mot for attribution or

against him, Mr.. Cohn and the
subcommittee staff director.
Francis Carr, in an effort to
head of an investigation of
Mr.. Hensel's World War II con-
nection with a Ship supply firm.
Mr.. HenSel branded the Nc
Carthy charges "a malicious
lie."
The subcommittee threw out
the charges against Mr.. Hensel
and his lawyer, Frederick Bryan
said at the time that 1t was
"a complete vindication" of his
client.
