taken by the subcommittee
showed that despite the "volu-
minous information" furnished
by the FBI on the employees he
listed, some of them received
promotions.
These promotions, he added,
provided even greater oppor-
tunities for raiding the files of
our Government and passing it's
secrets along to an enemy agent,
not to mention the golden oppo-
tunities for twisting our policy
to favor Soviet Russia"
He said the latest volume of
testimony published by the sub
committee brought sharply into
focus" that the FBI cannot de-
mand the dismissal of any sub
versive employees or order their
prosecution.

Presidential Study
OF Inquiry's Results
AT Monmouth Urged
By the Associated Press

NEW HAVEN, Conn, April 26.
"A committee of scientists says
President Eisenhower should ap-
point high level" committee
OF scientific and administrative
authorities ito examine the Sit
uation" which has arisen from
Investigations at the Signal
Corps Engineering Laboratory at
Fort Monmouth. N. j.
In bulky report of an inquiry
into the Investigations, COM
mittee of the Federation of
Scientists, headed by Ernest C.
Pollard. professor of biophysics
at Yale. charged that the inves-
legations already have done sub
stantial damage to radar and
communications work in progress
at Fort Monmouth and to marole.
Scientists List Points.
The scientists suggested that a
presidentially appointed commit
Tee study these points:
THE active research OUTPUT
per dollar at Monmouth in COM
parison with laboratories such as
Bell Laboratories, General Elec-
trict Laboratories, Project Lin
coin or the Naval Research Lab
oratory.
"The background of the secur-
lty personnel"
THE presence of racial or re-
ligious prejudice"
"The amount of actual dis
ruption to classified work en-
tailed by the sensational news
paper stories.
The seriousness of proved es-
pionage or security leaks in rec
ent years"
Mccarthy Has No Comment.
The report made public here
yesterday hits investigations by
a Senate subcommittee headed
by Senator Mccarthy, Republi-
can, of Wisconsin, and by the
Army Security Board. Senator
Mccarthy said in Milwaukee,
where he spent the week end, he
had not seen the scientiests' re-
port and did not comment on it.
The summary of the scientists
report makes these statements:
No evidence of espionage, in
recent years or at present, was
found at Fort Monmouth by the
Mccarthy subcommittee.
Most persons publicly linked
to the investigation had little or
no connection with the labora-
tories.
Only one of the 40-odd Signal
Corps laboratory employees impli-
Gated by the Army was called be-
fore the subcommittee at open
hearings.
The summary odds that none
OF these employees refused to tes-
tlfy on any grounds; that they
co-operated fully with the in
vestigators and all of them denied
under oath the charges made
against them.
"The sensational headlines
arising from the subcommittee
investigation have lowered mo-
rale." the summary continues.
Is Employees Referred To.
Although the exact number of
employees dismissed at Fort Mon
mouth never has been officially
disclosed, Army Secretary
Stevens estimated 33 were sus-
pended, while Harry Green, a
New Jersey lawyer who repre-
sented some of them, fixed the
number suspended or declassi-
fled at As. The committee of
scientists uses this number.
The report was based, the
scientists said. on information
already published and on data

CoFthY's Reply. Poee A
not look into either of their af-
fairs" the ranking minority
member asserted in an interview.
The question of finances came
up again today after Mr.. Hensel
suggested that the committee
examine Senator McCarthy's
money affairs. The Senator last
week brought Mr.. Hensel into
the controversy in a. broadside
that charged the latter with
prof1ting from the operations of
a ship supply firm while Navy
Department official during the
last war.
Malice Charged.
In a long statement replying
to the Mccarthy charges that he
sought to discredit and impede
the work of the subcommittee,
Mr.. Hensel used these words:
False, untrue and malicious"
Senator McCarthy'S retort to
the Hensel statement was, in
part. as follows:
He inadvertently tipped the
hand of those who have been
masterminding the smear at
tack upon my staff and disclosed
the true purpose to be what I
have stated it was since it's in
ception-namely an attempt to
roadblock all investigations of
graft. corruption and Commu-
nism and divert the committee
down the sideroad of investiga-.
ting itself"
The Defense official said the
Senator's statement that Mr..
Hensel "drew" at least $56,526
in 1943-45 from a private ship
supply firm operating with Gov
ernment priorities should not
be permitted to divert the SUBJ
committee from the pertinent
issues involving Senator Nc
Carthy."
Served in Navy Department.
Mr.. Hensel, who served in the
Navy Department during World
War II. was named Assistant
Secretary of Defense. in Febru-
airy.
He said in his statement, sub
mitted through an attorney, that
SO far as he knows. no RESPONSE
BILE person in the Pentagon
sought to impede the Mccarthy
Subcommittee's search for Com
munistS in the Army.
"On the contrary" Mr.. Hen
sci said. "every effort was made
fully to cooperate with the SUBJ
committee in its important
work"
Hensel's Part in Case.
He said he did not know of
any difficulties the Army was
having with Senator Mccarthy
or committee counsel Roy M.
Cohn until February "a, five days
after he took his present job.
Mr.. Hensel said his only role then
was to supervise preparation of
a memo on the case asked by
Senator Potter, Republican, of
Michigan. a sub committee
member.
Mr.. Hensel said he had asked
the Justice Department to look
into his connection with the ship
supply firm. which he described
as "a perfectly legitimate and
conventional minority financial
interest" And, he added, he
asked it to determine whether
any crime was being committed"
by Senator Mccarthy in his
false and malicious charge
against me-"

jep, wife Of the Netherlands Am
bassador, told more than 1000
Maryland homemakerS attend
ing the 28th annual rural wom-
ems short course yesterday at

lomat's wife said, land the wom-
ems organizations are very much
behind this effort"
Nine. van Roijen spoke at the
afternoon assembly session that
ended the first day Of classes for
the mothers and grandmothers
who are attending the week-long
course.
Her topic, 1.-THE Netherlands
Woman-Her Faith in the Fu-
ture" tied in with the general
theme of this years course
which is placing special en-
phaSis on international prob
lens.
The Dutch homemaker in
some parts of her country still
holds to her traditional aversion
to going outside the house, but
Dutch women leaders are trying
to show her that she has just an
important part to play in the
community. Nine. van Rotten
pointed out.
The speaker said that there
are three rural women's organi-
cations in Holland who are now
trying to bridge the difference
between the rural areas and the
towns.
Time on Form
There was a time when the
farmers wife was the busiest |
woman in my country, with a
work day that began before SUM-
rise and didn't end until after
shutdown" Mime. van Roijen
said, "but with the electric farm |
equipment we now have, she
has spare time that should be
used in an adequate way"
Following Nine. van Roijen's |
talk, new officers of the Mary |
land State Council of Home
makers Clubs were installed by |
Mrs. Carl w. Feucht, ST., the re-
firing president.
The new council president is
Mrs. William F. ROBBIE, of Forest |
Heights, a leader in boys club
work, past president and vice
president of the Charles County |
HomemakerS Council and past |
secretary in the State home
makers organization.
Elected and installed as
treasurer of the Statewide or
ganization was Mrs. John Alt
