West Germans Act
To Push Rearmament
BY the Assoeiofed Press

BONN. Germany, Jan. Is
The West German Bundestag is
moving to change the constitu-
ton to speed German rearma-
ment inside European army.
With the solid backing Of
Chancellor Konrad Adenauer's
four coalition parties, the House
yesterday gave initial approval
to constitutional amendments
authorizing creation of an
armed force.
The coalition parties believe
these amendments. when finally
approved. will head off a Su-
preme Court ruling which could
delay German participation in
the proposed siX-nation Euro
pean army.
The Socialists, who oppose re-
armament, have appealed to the
Supreme Court to rule that West
German rearmament would vio-
late the constitution.
Mr.. Adenauer and the coali-
ton parties contend that the
government already has the
right to rearm for defense. even
though the 1949 constitution
does not specifically mention
armed forces.
They still want specific au-
thority spelled out in the con-
stitution. For President Theodor
HeuSs has declined to sign the
European army treaty, already
passed by Parliament, until tie
legality of rearmament Is def
nitely settled.
In yesterdays session, the
Bundestag approved the amend
ments on first reading. without
recorded vote. They were then
sent to various committees for
further study before the critical
second and third readings.

Maj. Gen. Patrick Hurley has

Gen. Hurley said it was this

Security Program

participating in panel discus
sion sponsored by the Washing

, declared the Federal security
program is a political shell
game" which Is driving scien-
fists into nondefense areas"
"The lack of q fair hearing is
at the center OF a fostering sore, "
said Mr.. Fanelli. ''The corrosion
on due process is causing further
corrosion on due process"
Industrial concerns. for ex-
ample, are following the lead Of

manding loyalty oaths--a proce-
dure hitherto found unconstitu-

gained his Navy Department job
after having been ousted by q

was a security risk. He was re-

There is no opportunity TO

The attorney said he learned
during the course of the Chasa-
now controversy that two Gov
ernment witnesses In the case
later said they were misquoted
by Government security agents.
do we seek security from the
contributions Of our people,
which have been brilliant. or do
we seek security through elimi-
nation of fair hearings. which
may be described as brilliantly
questionable?" Mr.. Fanelli asked.
Reports on Attitudes.
DR.. Marie Yahoda. a New
York University psychology pro-
fessor. said her recent study Of
attitudes of a graduating dlass
of nuclear physicists in a lead
ing American university indicat-
ed that tWo-thirds Of the stu
dents preferred to work in low
paying jobs where no security
clearance was required, than in
higher-paying jobs where it was
q condition of employment.
In another survey, DR.. Yahoda
said, a random sample of 10 pro-
fessional men working in the
Federal Government here showed
they felt "a person taking an
interest in his community" con-
stituted the biggest target OF
"unjustified suspicion.
DR.. Karl Herzfeld, head of the
physics department at Catholic
University, argued for more
clarity in security regulations.
I'VE must have a government
of laws and not a government
of men," he said.
DR.. Maurice Shapiro, a physi-
cist. said:
MY present feeling is Of

Green Awarded $500
In Suit Over Use Of
Letter in Campaign
BY the AssoeIofed Press

HANOV COURTHOUSE.
Va, Feb. Harrington attorney
John Locke Green has been
awarded $500 damages by a
Hanover County jury which
found that Arlington Treasurer
Colin Macpherson made wrong
full use of a personal letter in
political campaign.
Mr.. Macpherson ouSted Mr.
Green from Office in the 1851
campaign for county treasurer
Both were Republicans but Mr.
Green was running without sup
port of the Arlington G. o. P. Or
ganiZation.
A Seven-member jury returned
the verdict yesterday in Judge
Leon M. Babies court here,
ending a two-day trial. The case
had been transferred here on a
change of venue from Airing
ton
Rules Out Section.
Judge Bazile ruled out a sec
ton of the suit in which Green
claimed wrongful use of the let
ter in the campaign led to his
defeat and loss of Office. Green
had asked $4,000 for this part.
The judges order limited the
civil action to ownership of the
letter plus the cost of replying to
Mr.. MACPHERSON S political adver-
tiSements.
In testimony. Mr.. Macpherson
claimed the letter showed that
Mr.. Green. while county treasur-
er, was making a profit on loans
he was undertaking for the Citi-
ZenS National Bank of Orange,
where some county funds had
been deposited
Obtained From Attorney.
The letter was obtained from
Edgar Humphrey, an Arlington
attorney, Mr.. Green testified. 1t
was written by r. c. Slaughter,
president of the Orange bank.
and addressed to Mr.. Green, it
was testified.
The jury directed the letter be
returned to Mr.. Green.
Defense Attorney Oren R. Lewis
moved that the verdict be set
aside and was granted 10 days
in which to assign grounds for
a motion.
