subcommittee were the decisions
and acts of the Department of
the Army alone.
"At no time did the Army
or I as its Secretary receive any
orders from any one in respect
to the preparation or presen-
tation of the Army's case. Spe-
cif1cally, the conference of jan

of obtaining an Interpretation of

Seaton said the Army has no in

to stop the hearings. He said
he had heard neither Mr.. Stew

Mr.. Seaton, who has charge

public and legislative affairs
was asked why Mr.. Stevens did
not issue his own statement ir
answrs to queries about it. He
replied that the Army Secretary
took full credit and responsible

though he declined to answer
questions.
| The statement was prepared
in Mr.. Seaton's Office. Others
present were Army Special Coun-
sci Joseph N. Welch and his
assistant, James D. st. Clair
and John D. Adams, Army de-
partment counselor who also is
one Of the principals of the
Army Mccarthy row.
The President had received an
opportunity-and brushed it
aside-to say what part if
any the White House had
in the preparation of the
Army report. He was asked
if it would be correct to say the
White House approved and au-
thorized the Army report attack
ing Senator Mccarthy.
The President, speaking grim
ly and emphatically, snapped
back, it would not.
The effect of the Presidents
news conference statements was
to cali for continuation of the
public hearings.
He said he did not think all
the facts have been brought out
and that he wants the investiga-

letting the chips fall where they
will.

He said he considered the in

in what occurred over the Janu-

had no possible connection with

Instead of trying to get the
hearings off the track, the Presi-

President Voices
Faith in Stevens
In Charlotte Talk
By the Assoeioted Press

CHARLOTTE, N. c., May 10.
President Eisenhower yester-
day reaf1irmed his faith in the
Nations armed forces with the
declaration that I'VE are still
confident" in them from their
secretaries and their high COM
manders on down to the last pri-
vate in the ranks"
With Army Secretary Stevens
seated behind him, the PreSi-
dent made no reference to the
Army-McCartl1y hearings in a
brief, informal address to a
police-estimated crowd of 10000
in Charlotte's Freedom Park.
But the reference to the civilian
chiefs in Mr.. Stevens presence
seemed to indicate the Presi-
dents continued faith in his
Army Secretary in his dispute
with Senator Mccarthy, Repub-
lican. of Wisconsin.
Gen. Eisenhower, accompanied
by Mr.. Stevens on his fight
from Washington, came here to
help Mecklenburg (Charlotte)
County commemorate the 179th
anniversary of the Mecklenburg
Declaration of independence.
The Important Thing.
Referring to the Meckenburg
declaration. the President said
that if "the story book record
of that particular moment in
history 179 years ago has been
disputed by some I believe
that is not important. The i'm
portant thing is that here, this
great segment of America wants
to be known as originatorS of
our historical documents of free
DOM"
Gen. Eisenhower declared that
If such a meeting as Charlotte's
Freedom Day rally Should oc-
cur in the Soviet countries, it
would be there to hear a doctrine
propounded by the rulers. It
would come there by orders sent
out by the dictator; it would
cheer when told to cheer and
leave when told to leave, and
go exactly to where it's members
were told to go. Here we do not
do that. And so we have the
true value of a meeting, fully
expressed, because people are
here because they want to be-"

thought would be the effect
throughout the country If the
hearings were ended now.
It was then that the President
said he did not think an the
facts had been brought out and
that he thinks the matter should
be settled conclusively.
He pointed out that grave for
eign matters and important do
mestic issues should be receiv-
ing the attention of the people
and he reiterated a hope thaA

General Brownell in efforts to
obtain a clarif1cation of the
White House order. was invited

Senator Mundt, arriving at the
Justice Department for the
luncheon, said he subscribed 100
per cent" to Gen. Eisenhower's
statement calling for the investi-
CATION to go on and letting the
chips fall where they may.
He declined further comment
until after his conference with
the Attorney General. Senator
Mundt was accompanied by Ray
H. jenkins, special counsel for
the Investigation.
The hearings are in recess
until next Monday, but Senator
Mundt rejected speculation that
they would not be resumed.
Policy Group Airs Issue.
Senator Mundt said he had
made no plans to confer with the
White House until after the
Brownell meeting.
The issue raised by the Presi-
dents order was discussed by
Senator Mundt with members
OF the Senate Republican Policy
Committee at a meeting yes
terday.
The Policy Committee mem
bers, it was reported, emphasized
the need for some Qualification
OF the order. However, Chair
man Ferguson of Michigan re-
ported that no action was taken
and none proposed, although
members expressed varying SEN
timents on the controversial
hearings.
Senator Ferguson said that
during the meeting he heard no
one suggest the hearings should
be stopped. Giving his personal
opinion, Senator Ferguson said
he saw mo reason not to con-
tinue."
Senator Mcclellan, Democrat,
OF Arkansas, meanwhile, made
it clear he does not believe that
the hearings should be termi-
mated.

Saying it was "furtherest
from my thoughts" to have the
hearings end if the Presidents
order stands, Senator McClel-
Ian added:

have no intention that these
hearings should end until all

Ban on Cinderella

A British health offlcer named DR.. John d.
Kershaw has turned thumbs down on ''Cinder-
ella" His reasoning is that Cinderellas capture
Of Prince Charming makes modern real-life girls
expect the same, and therefore is bad for them.
Perhaps this is not too surprising, consider
ing that national conference Of British teach
ers banned Little Red Riding Hood" few years
ago because the VOLTS masquerade taught chill
dren deceit. Somehow, though, this rough
handling of Cinderella is a little harder to take.
DR.. KerShaw thinks that the story is bad

happily ever after, he says, keeps children from
being taught ito realize the difficulties and re-

Library Of Congress BUDGET


To United States taxpayers, espe-
cially industrialists who must pay for
research and development projects,
the Library Of Congress is the most
economical. comprehensive store of in
formation in the world. As a perfect
example, I am gathering quickly and
at low cost in this national library
much more data on certain metal
lurgical problem that manufacturer
needs for an armed services project
than might gather by travelling to
several major technical libraries
throughout the country, at much
greater cost and over much longer
time.
I can testify by direct experience
"back stage" in several accessory de-
partments, as well as in the reference
divisions, that the Library workers are
industrious and economical. They use
waste paper for scratch pads. I've never
seen an idler.
So it is appalling to businessmen,
such as I represent, to see the House
Of Representatives lop one eighth off
the Library's pinched budget for 1855
81 ,295,000 from requested $10.-
100000.
I trust that the Senate will insist
upon letting this national library have
the small money it needs. The sum is
small, the help to taxpayers vast.
