Senator Mundt, Republican, of
South Dakota, a member of the
subcommittee, revealed that Sec
rotary Stevens had inquired Of
him what the facts were" about
recent questioning of Brig. Gen.
Ralph Zwicker by Senator Nc
Carthy.
The Pentagon had first an
nounced that Mr.. Stevens would
appear before the committee in
response to a subpoena, but later
the Army said while no actual
subpoena has been delivered,
Secretary Stevens will voluntar-
lily appear on Tuesday"
The Wisconsin Republican
has been demanding that the
Army produce the names of the
people involved in the promo
ton and honorable discharge
Of an Army Reserve dentist.
Mccarthy Ignored.
Senator Mccarthy called it q
'"hurry up" discharge and said
the Army had ample evidence
available beforehand that the
officer, former Mai. Irving
Peress, was a Communist. Maj.
PereSs had been stationed at
Camp Kilmer, N. j., where Gen.
zwicker is commanding officer.
Either the Army will give the
. names of men coddling Com
munists," Senator Mccarthy
said; Nor we win take it before
the Senate and attempt to have
cited for contempt those re-
Sporsible fer a shameful situa-
ton"
After. the Senator demanded
on Thursday to know within
"a hours whether or not the
Army would give the subcom-
mittee the names. the Army
ignored the ultimatum.
The Pentagon's first statement
last night said:
Secretary of the Army Robert
T. Stevens has instructed officers
requested to appear before the
Senator Mccarthy subcommittee
on Tuesday not to appear.
Secretary Stevens himself has
been Subpoenaed by the Senator
Mccarthy subc ON NIT tee for
Tuesday and will appear"
Two Generals Summoned.
Shortly afterwards, the Penta-
gon said Mr.. Stevens would ap-
pear voluntarily. The Army. ex-
planning the confusion, said Mr..
Stevens had been informed by
Senator Mccarthy that sub
poena had been issued.
The Army said Senator Nc
Carthy had summoned before
his subcommittee Gen. Zwicker
and the Army adjutant general,
Mai. Gen. William Bergin.
DR.. Peress, at a hearing in New
York, refused to tell Senator Nc
Carthy whether he was Com
munist in uniform. He. invoked
the Fifth Amendment against
Standardization.
Senator Mccarthy, handling
a duplicate of DR.. Peress' hon
orable discharge, said at one
point in the hearing:
This was signed and handed

sociations last night served no.
tice that If Congress insists on
additional real estate and food
taxes in the District, the Fedora
ton will no longer feel bound
to support the public works pro-
gram "in any way"
The citizens group strenuously
opposed tax increases recon-
mended by a Joint Senate and
House District Subcommittee.
The subcommittee rejected a
$40 million Federal loan asked
by the Commissioners and
recommended additional taxes
including a real estate tax in
crease and imposition of the
sales tax on groceries.
AT the same time, the Fedora
ton demanded that Congress re-
store the District organic act
agreement for a $3.50 sharing of
the city's costs by the Federal
Government and the District
viii Demand Redress.
Amid expressions indicating
they felt the time had come for
speaking out strongly, the dele
gates declared:
!. They will "strenuously pro.
test" to Congress injustices and
inequalities Of the past and
strongly demand an immediate
redress"
2. That Congress should rec
ognize that the District is the
Federal City and appropriate the
full Federal share of it's propor-
tionate costs of operation.
3. That the principle no taxa
ton without representation"
should be respected toward the
people of'the District.
4, That it requests support
from other organizations and in
dividual taxpayers. and that citi-
zens all over the Nation should
be informed of the situation.
The District Commissioners
came in for some disapproval
when Harry N. Stull declared:
We've three very nice Com
missioners. But they go up on
the Hill and yes everything that
Congress says. I wish we would
arrive at the time when our
Commissioners would 60 up on
the Hill and say. No, we're not
going to stand for that. The
people of the District do not
want it. ."
Asks Positive Action.
William K. Norwood added
that 1--WE have had appeasement
too much Cancellation here in
this Federation and on the part
of our Commissioners up on the
Hill. I think this is the time
for a little bit of positive
action"
In the long resolution de-
manding a return to the pro-
visions of the organic act, the
Federation pointed out among
other things that:
/. The Federal Government
owns and occupies 42.8 per cent
OF District property, rendering
it non-taxable. and 6.1 per cent
more is not taxable under au-
thority of Congress.
2. Since 1922 the percentage
OF Federal payment toward Dis
trict costs has decreased from 40
to 9.23 per cent.
3. That if the Federal Gov
eminent had kept good faith"
with the people of the District,
the city would have received
$408 million in addition to what
actually was appropriated.
4. That citizens here are forced
to pay per capita tax rate lin
the top bracket Of all our large
American cities.

Babp declared that I'VE have

The subcommittee action
came after a stormy public ses-
sion Friday afternoon at which
Chairman LANCER. Republican. Of
North Dakota had a staff mem.
Der read into the record a series
Of charges against Mr.. Warren
which ranged from the assertion
that he was dominated by a Cal

that he was Marxist.
Indignant subcommittee mem
bers pointed out that the
charges were uncorroborated by

partment disclosed that the

that while he had voted to re-

Senator Hennings also pre-
