based on the question OF Mr..
Davies judgment alone.
Senator Ferguson said that, as
he recalled, a question as to Mr..
Davies Judgment was raised dur
ing the subcommittee hearing
both in respect to his position on
China matters and his proposal
to the C1A.
Although hearings : on Mr..
Davies were held in secret, 1t is
known that much of the con-
troversy has centered on Mr..
Davies intelligence proposals
and his diplomatic dispatches
especially the ones criticizing
Chinese Nationalist Chang Kali
shek.
Secretary Dulles, in announc-
ing the decision in the Davies
case, seemed to allude to these
dispatches when he related:
1.-The (security) board empha-
sized that it defended Mr.. Davies
right to report as his conscience
dictated, but found that he
made known his dissents from
established policy outside OF
privileged boundaries.
No Informers.
"The board also emphasized
that its decision stemmed pre-
ponderantly not from derogatory
information supplied by others,
but from it's own thorough and
exhaustive analysis of Mr..
Davies known and admitted
works and acts and, in connec-
ton Herewith. his direct ad-
missions and deficiencies as o
witness before the board.
"The board found that Mr..
Davies observation and evalua-
tion of the facts, his policy rec
concentrations, his attitude with
respect to existing policy, and
his disregard Of proper forebear-
ance and caution in making
known his dissents outside priv
ileged boundaries were not in
| accordance with the standard
required of foreign service Off
GERS and show a definite lack Of
| judgment, discretion and re-
liability"
State Department spokesman
| Henry Suydam, upon being
i questioned by reporters, said he
could not explain what Mr..
Dulles meant by privileged
| boundaries" Mr.. Suydam was
asked specifically whether Mr..
| Davies was fired because he went
outside privileged boundaries"

Won Neurath Quits
War Crimes Prison
BY the Assoeiated Press

BERLIN. Nov. 6.-Konstantin
Won Neurath, 81-year-old former
Nazt foreign minister, was re-
leased today from the Spandau
war crimes prison in West Berlin.
Governor of Czechoslovakia
during the Nazi occupation, Won
Neurath was the first of Hitler's
lieutenants to win freedom from
the four-power Jail set UP for
those who escaped the hangman
at the 1916 Nuremberg war crimes
trials.
Won Neurath is half blind and
suffering from a heart ailment.
He walked out of the grim prison
into the arms of his daughter,
Frau Winifried Won Mackensen.
They entered an automobile and
drove away as curious bystanders
looked on.
The release of Won Neurath
was suggested Wednesday by the
Russians after the Kremlin had
ignored similar approaches by
the Western powers. American

complete confidence in the ac-
curacy of either one.
Saw No Security Risk.
IT rather took the average of
the two, reached the conclusion
that Davies had made such a
recommendation, that it was
probably his idea would not have
been particularly productive, but
that from the purely profess
sional standpoint the suggestion
was not one which would have
caused me to consider it a grave
security risk, although I was un-
able to assess Mr.. Davies
motives. ..
"At that time it would not
have been a Well-advised opera
ton because I do not think the
personnel who would have car
ried it out would have been suf-
f1ciently experienced. I am Of
the opinion that Admiral
Hillenkoetter was unduly shocked
because he himself was rela-
lively inexperienced Tin intelli-
gence work.. I may be unduly
the other way because, as you

four years, and while I do not
underestimate them, I certainly
do not overestimate them.
II know they are no smarter
than other people and I know
they can be made to work against
each other"
This suggested that Mr.. Davies
scheme also had in mind the
possibility that the United States
could plant false intelligence
with the special unit in the hope
that it would be transmitted to
Moscow.

latest explanation of the han
ding of the PereSs case.
Several days ago Mr.. Stevens
wrote Senator Mccarthy that
two unnamed officers had been
reprimanded for delay in ham
ding of the case. The Secretary
named three other officers, but
absolved them from any blame
in the promotion and honorable
discharge Of DR.. Irving Peress,
former Army Dental Corps
major, who is described by Sem
ator Mccarthy as a Fifth
Amendment Communist.
"GobbledygOok" Charged.
II note in your letter." Senator
Mccarthy wrote Mr.. Stevens,
"you refer to the promotion from
captain to major of CDR. PeressD
as a 'readjustment of rank.
While your letter does contain a
lot of gobbledygook and evasion
in regard to the promotion, you
do not even try to explain why
this Fifth Amendment Commu-
mist was rewarded with an hon.
orable discharge"
Senator Mccarthy also COM
pletely rejected Mr.. Stevens ex-
planation that DR.. Peress was
promoted to major in a purely
routine manner under the doctor
draft law.
"This ducking and lodging
and misstating of facts reminds
me of your testimony during
the Mundt hearings" the Sena-
tor wrote, in reference to Mr.
Stevens testimony in regard to
the Army Mccarthy hearings.
Senator Mccarthy again ac-
cused Mr.. Stevens of trying to
cover up for some one high in
the Pentagon whom he says is
responsible for mishandling the
PereSs case.
while, as you know, it is dam
gerous to have a Communist in
the military, it is thousand
times more dangerous to have
and protect in the military the
silent masters who look after
and reward Communists" the
MCCARTHY letter concluded.

Beeson 10 Give Up
Labor Board Post
When Term Ends
BY the Assoeioted Press

The White House says that
Albert c. Beeson has advised
President Eisenhower he would
be unable to accept appointment
to a new term as a member Of
the National Labor Relations
Board. ' !.
Mr.. Beeson, whose original ap-
poi1tment stirred up a Senate
controversy over his conflrma-
tion. told the President that ILL
ness of his, wife makes it impos-
sihle for him to continue as a
member beyond the expiration
of his present term on Decen1-
Der l6.
Thanked for Service.
James C. Hagerty, White
House press secretary. told news
men of Mr.. Beeson's letter to
the President yesterday.
Mr.. Hagerty also said Gen
Eisenhower wrote Mr.. Beeson
expressing regret over his wife's
illness and thanking him for
having served "in a diligent and
effective manner"
The White House had given
no indication in advance that
the President planned to reap
point Mr.. Beeson, but an official
who asked not to be named said
it was pretty obvious" from the
tone of the Chief Executives
letter that he had intended to
nominate Mr.. .Beeson for an
other term,
Bitter Fight.
Mr.. Beeson survived the Bit
terest confirmation fight of the
year to win 45-42 Senate ap-
proval last February. All but
q couple of Democrats voted
against him, on the basis OF a
minority report from the Senate
Labor Committee which said he
had not completely severed his
connection with the Food Ma
chinery & Chemical Corp. OF
San Jose, Calf, when he ac-
cepted the appointment to the
NLRB.
Republicans on that commit
tee, which studied the nomina-
ton, insisted he make a formal
resignation from the company
before they recommended that
the Senate confirm him.
Mr.. Beeson had been vice
president of the concern in
charge of labor relations. He
was opposed for the NLRB job
by union leaders who said he
had a pro-management bias.
But the main fight revolved
around the question of whether
he was on a technical leave Of
absence status from his old COM
pany or whether he had in fact
resigned.
