ter the Presidents message, Chair
man Reed of the Ways and Means
Committee introduced the enabling
legislation and announced that hear
ings on the bills would probably be
scheduled as soon as the tax program
is disposed of, probably in March.
The fate of these amendments will
be determined by the support the
President can get in his own party
in the next few months. If he can
get a majority of his party to go
along the Democrats will assist in
bringing about badly needed reform
of our Social Security system and
make it applicable to millions of peo-
pie not now enjoying the benefit of

RECALLS MATUSOWS
APPEARANCE IN MONTANA

1t was recalled that on October

Matusow said: "The Sunday section

MCCARTHY HASN'T HURT AN
INNOCENT INDIVIDUAL!

"Matusow endorsed Sen. Joseph
Mccarthy of Wisconsin, saying, he
hasn't hurt an innocent individual.
He added he has Just been smeared
alot.' He also endorsed Sen. Pat Nc
Carran of Nevada"
At the McCarran subcommittee
hearings in Salt Lake on Oct. 8, 1862,
Matusow testified he had attended
a meeting in Taos, N. NJ, in the sum-
mer of 1850, where he heard Jencks
announce plans for "a copper strike
to cut down production of copper
for war effort in this area"
At the time, international officers
of Jencks' union-the Mine, Mill and
Smelter Workers-commente
''The facts make damned liar
out of Matusow. In the first place
we had no copper strike at all in
New Mexico during the whole year
of 1850 and the first half of 1851.
In the second place, if Matusow
had in mind the strike called by our
Bayard, N. M local in October
1850, he had his metals mixed.
That strike was against an Empire
Zinc Company property which pro-
duces only lead and zinc. The strike
involved fewer than 80 workers, so
il could hardly be said to have
hindered the Korean war effort.
Finally, if Matusow had his
years mixed and really meant our
national copper strike in 1851,
he's really nuts. Our Today strike
was called in August, 1851, to up
hold a settlement which had been
proposed by the u. S. Government
speaking through Mr.. Cyrus Ching,
the Director of the Federal Media
ton and Cancellation Service, af-
ter the Big A. corporations had
rejected the government proposal.
"The 1851 strike was called, as
every strike in the history of this
union has been called, only after
a secret referendum vote of the en-
tire membership. More than $3.50 of
the members voted for the strike"

Ell PASO = The defense in the
case of Clinton Jencks introduced
evidence showing that Harvey Ma
tusow, the prosecutions ''star" wit
ness in the weeks-long trial, has been
richly rewarded in his three-year ca
reer as a professional anti-Commu-
mist.
On cross-examinatiOn, the defense
got admissions from Matusow that he
had sworn to different addresses for
voting and other purposes on at least
three occasions in 1852 When forced
to admit these serious inconsistencies,
Matusw came up with series of ex-
cuses, each of which contradicted the
other.
Matusow also admitted he is and
has been strong supporter of Sena-
tor Joseph Mccarthy of Wisconsin,
and that he was paid by the Wiscon-
sin Mccarthy Club to campaign on
behalf of Mccarthy in 1852.
He said he was paid by the Re-
publican Party to campaign in
Utah for Sen. Arthur V. Watkins,
and by the Montana Citizens for
Americas to campaign for Repub-
lican candidates in that state. "Pm
Republican and proud of it," he
admitted he had said on May 6,
1853.
He admitted submitting to the
Santa Fe New Mexican" as his own
an article that had been written by
someone else and originally published
in political AFFAIRS" a Communist
magazine.
The defense introduced into evil
dence a check made out to and en-
dorsed by a Harvey Matt. During
cross-examination Matusow admitted
he had used the aliases Harvey
Matt" and ''Ralph Page" during his
varied career.

Stephenson Counsel
Fights 10 Suppress
Telephone Recording

Defense attorneys renewed
efforts today to suppress i'm
portant evidence the Govern
ment wants to use in pressing
perjury charges against Warren
l.. Stephenson.
They are asking the U. S
District Court for the District OF
Columbia to prevent the Gov
ernment from introducing q
record made on a machine that
operates In conjunction with
telephones.
The motion is being argued
before Judge David A. Pine as
a prelude to the perjury trial
The legal question hinges on the
Interpretation Of wiretapping.
Witness Balks.
One Of today's witnesses was
Robert @. Parsons, president
of Century Engineers, Inc. OF
Burbank, Calf. who testified
that he recorded a telephone
conversation which he had with
Mr.. Stephenson by using a
"soundscriber."
The conversation related to
negotiations for Mr.. Stephen
sons services as a contact man
in Washington.
On the stand yesterday, Mr..
Parsons hesitated at answering
whether or not he had a record
ing machine attached to his tel
ephone. He was excused tenn
porarily to consult his personal
counsel about the advisability
Of answering. Judge Pine di-
rected him to make the decision
overnight.
He told the Judge today that
he had no intention of claiming
privilege and that his lawyers
said there was no reason for his
not answering the question.
Federal Law Is Issue.
The defense attorneys are try
ing to show that Mr.. Parsons
record of the telephone conver-
sation was made in violation of
Federal laws and orders of the
Federal Communications Com
mission. If they establish this
they will contend the Govern
ment had no right to introduce
this evidence.
Mr.. Stephenson, who circu-
lated in high circles with the
new Republican administration
early last year, is accused of
lying to a House Armed Services
Subcommittee. It is charged
that he falsely denied having
talked by telephone with manu-
facturers concerning contracts
and offering to represent them
for fees.

was aggravated by dirt, CRIME and

sprawled lifeleSS on the sidewalk

brilliant career cut short by an
aSSaSSin's bullet that entered his
muscular neck and lodged in his
heart.
Later when you arrive at head
quarters, Inspector Dave Voss is
interrogating suspect. He eX-
plains to you what has happened:
"JuSt about a second after the
shot was fired, one of our patrol
men saw this young man make his
way hurriedly through the crowd
and run down the street. Patrol
man Dugan set out after him and
it was only because he has one
of the fastest pairs of legs on our
force that he was able to overtake
the man. He says his name is
Johnny Johnson and, of course, he
claims he knows nothing about
the shooting"
That's right" chimes in John
son. "You have no right at all to
hold me-"
What were you running for?"
you ask.
"It just happens that 1 don't
have the usual morbid curiosity
about dead bodies, and besides, I
was late for date"
johnson rises from his chair,
lights a. cigarette, and nervously
PAGES about the room. You notice
his flashy taste in clothes, the gaily
colored sport coat, the Windsor
knot in his bright necktie, the
crepe-soled sport shoes. Despite his
lack of>height, which you judge to
he about five feet six inches, he
cuts quite figure of sartorial
elegance.
"You have nothing more to
add?" you ask him.
Nothing at ALL" he says. Il
