Senate Groups OK
On Postal Rate Rise
By }. A. o'Leory

Postmaster General Summer
field asked Senate committee
today to approve an increase
of $252 million in postal rates.
including a raise from 3 to 4
cents on the first ounce of first
class letters going out of town.
He also requested that airmail
be raised from 6 to 7 cents an
ounce. He is seeking increases
amounting to SIG million on
second class mail and $56.3 mil
lion a year on third class mail.
Mr.. Summerfield told the Post
Office and Civil Service Commit
tee these increases would absorb
transportation and wage in
creaseS now pending, and make
some reduction in the 1924 mil
lion deficit estimated for the
next fiscal year.
Despite economies instituted
since the Eisenhower admin
istration took Office, Mr.. Sum-
merfield pointed out that the
postal service is still running
in the red at the rate of ST. mil
lion a day.
'That deficit is not paper
figure nor is it a figment Of a
bookkeeper's imagination" said
the Postmaster General. "It must
be paid out of taxes levied by
the Congress on an over-bur-
dened taxpayer or added to the
national debt"
Mr.. Summerfield said costs
have doubled since the Scent
letter rate took effect in 1888.
He said the Accent rate still
would give citizens lone of the
greatest bargains on earth"

By the Assoeioted Press

HOUSTON, April 22.-Sena-
tor Mccarthy. Republican, of
Wisconsin, has charged that
"some good men are being used''
in cleverly laid plans to wreck
the anti-Communist work of
his Senate Subcommittee.
Senator Mccarthy called no
names, but said efforts are be-
ing made to change committee
rules so as to prohibit hearings
unless a specified number of
Senators are present.
He gave no further details
of the alleged plot during a San
Jaclnto Day speech yesterday in
the shadow of the 570-foot A.
inch monument marking the site
of the battle in which Texas
won it's independence from Mex
leo 118 years ago.
Mcclellan Knows of No Move.
In Washington. Senator Nc
Clellan, Democrat. of Arkansas,
senior minority member of the
subcommittee. said there is no
effort by any one on the COM
mittee to- change the rules.
II don't know of any pending
effort to change the rules" he
said. II don't know what he's
talking about"
Senator Mccarthy told his au-
dience in his 47-minute speech:
II strongly urge that you
watch the maneuvering. The
manipulation and the attempts
to change the rules to make it
impossible for the committee to
operate"
He suggested that individuals
write their Senator and if salts
factory replies are not received
to write again.

only one condition In return
to the end that these hearings
may proceed with due decorum
and with equal justice to all,
we must insist that there be
no demonstrations of approval
or disapproval of any kind at
any time from the members of
the audience.
The regulations, the action,
and perhaps the integrity Of
responsible public officials are
being challenged in these hear
ings. Under these circum-
stances. it is right and proper
that each of us at this end
of the committee room consid-
ers himself in a sense to be on
trial to the extent that all of
us have the obligation to do our
best to enable justice and
equity to prevail throughout
these unprecedented hearings.
I am confident that each Of
us on this subcommittee will
zealously and earnestly strive to
fulfill that solemn obligation.

ing hearings in the Mccarthy
Army dispute:
This permanent subcommit-
tee on Investigations Of the
United States Senate. being
a subcommittee of the Senate
Committee on Government
Operations. has now convened
in open session for the pur-
pose of investigating charges
heretofore made by Secretary
of the Army Robert T. Stew
ems and his counsel, John G.
Adams, and formalized in a
document dated April 13, 1854.
and filed with this subcom-
mittee, and in which a general
charge is made that Senator
Joseph r. Mccarthy as chair
man of the Permanent Sub
committee on Investigations,
United States Senate; its chief
counsel, Roy M. Cohn, as well
as other members of its staff,
sought by improper means to
obtain preferential treatment
for one Pvt. G. David Schine,
United States Army, formerly
a consultant for this subcom-
mittee. and in which numer-
Gus specific allegations are
made in support of that gen.
eral charge
1t is the further purpose of
this subcommittee to investi-
gate counter charges by Sem
ator Mccarthy, Mr.. Cohn and
other members of their staff
against Mr.. Stevens, Mr..
Adams and Mr.. HenSel, the
latter Of whom, as a result of
these counter charges, has
been advised by the subcom-
mittee he is considered a party
to this controversy with the
full rights and prerogatives
provided for each participant
in our special rules of pro-
cedure.
These counter charges were
formalized in a statement
signed and filed with the sub
committee under date of April
10, 1854. in which they gen.
orally allege that Mr.. Stevens,
Mr.. Adams and Mr.. Hensel
attempted to discredit what is
generally referred to as the
Mccarthy investigating COM
mittee and to force a discon-
tinuance of further attempts
by that committee to expose
Communist infiltration in the
Army. and in which it is fur
ther charged that Mr.. Stevens
and Mr.. Adams made constant
attempts to trade off preferen-
tial treatment for Pvt Schine
as an inducement to the sub
committee to halt its exposi-
ton of the mishandling of
Communist infiltration in the
military. Specific allegations
are made in support of these
general charges.
