but off they went-all but the
grandchildren, who already were
in bed.
After visiting the home, the
President and his party walked
next door to the museum, which
stirred another food of memo
ries.
In one area of the museum
was a 1914 electric automobile
which belonged to Mrs. Eisen-
hower's parents. and which the
President used to drive.
The President didn't notice it,
but in a glass case was a copy
of a book entitled "Mr. Presi-
dent"-the story of former Pres
ident Truman by William Hill
man. The book was open to a
picture of Mr.. Truman, which
had been signed by him with this
note to Gen. Eisenhower:
"To a great general, with
kindest regards"
The date was August 13, 1852
early in the last presidential
campaign, before Eisenhower
Truman relations cooled as Q
result of the campaign.
After today's museum dedica-
ton ceremonies Gen. Eisen-
hover planned Ito fly TO To-
ledo, Ohio, for q round Of
Lake Erie duck hunting to-
morrow and Saturday morning
as the guest of Secretary of the
Treasury Humphrey. They will
stay at the secluded Cedar Point
Club, about Is miles from Toledo.
Mrs. Eisenhower will fly on to
Washington after the President
leaves the plane in Ohio. He will
return to the White House Sat-

Senator Watkins correctly as the

"Distasteful" To Watkins.
Senator Watkins made a dry
presentation of his committees

"doubly distasteful" because he
sits next to the Junior Senator
from Wisconsin. AS he spoke of
"the findings which are con-
tanned in this report" Senator

Big Security Check Of
1O,6OO Completed
BY The Assoeioted Press

The Eisenhower administra-
tion has virtually completed a
sweeping new loyalty and secur-
ity check of the State Depart
ment's 10000 employees.
Informed officials reported yes
terday that 80 per cent of the
total, about $500, have been
cleared and found to be good
security risks.
Investigations of the remain
ing 10 per cent are nearly over,
with prospects that their cases
will be completed by the end of
the year.
Directed by Mcleod.
r. w. Scott Mcleod, the de-
partment's controversial security
chief, has directed the far-fung
review into the loyalty and Sc
curity of all diplomats and Civil
Service employees.
For the past 18 months, Mr..
McLeod's security agents have
examined the background of all
present employees and job appli-
,cants to make certain they quail
ify. under the Eisenhower ad-
ministration's new loyalty and
security standards.
Mr.. Mcleod, former aide to
Republican Senator Bridges, Re-
publican. of New Hampshire and
friend Of Senator Mccarthy,
Republican, of Wisconsin. is re-
ported satisfied his investigations
have been thorough and fair.
A frequent target of Demo-
cratic criticism, Mr.. Mcleod is
reported ready to give an ac-
counting to the Democratic
controlled 84th Congress in the
event it demands an investigation
of his security activities. He is
reported resolved to stay on the
job despite any new criticism
which may be leveled at him.
Recommendation Renewed.
Meanwhile, it was learned a
special committee named by
Secretary of State Dulles to sur
vey the Foreign Service has re-
newed its recommendation that
he transfer from Mr.. Mcleod
to the Undersecretary for Ad-
ministration the duties of in
specting Foreign Service installa-
tions.
And noting that that Under
secretary's post expires Deem
ber 81, it urged Mr.. Dulles to
find a properly qualified man
who can come prepared to stay"
as his principal administrative
assistant to take over those
duties. The post now is filed
temporarily by Charles Saltzman.

agency should report to, the head
of the organization or as nearly
to the head as practicable"
The committee, headed by Dr..
Henry Wriston, president Of
Brown University. had made a
similar recommendation in a de-
tailed report last June Z, but
Secretary Dulles took no imrne>
diate action. The recommends
ton was renewed in a report
dated October IL.
"We regard it of top impor-
tance, not merely for the success
Of your program (for improving
the Foreign Service). but for its
very survival, to find a way to
bring first-ciass administrative
leadership promptly to bear upon
this situation" the report said.

Senators won't even have the

more.
He asked his colleagues this
rather ambiguous question: "Is
it necessary for US now to decree
that Senators must not only re-
frain from conduct which, while
not contemptuous, might be so
spectacular as to be advertised
and propagandized to such an
extent as to bring the Senate
unduly into the kleig lights Of
publicity and therefore into
disrepute?"
Butler Pessimistic.
Senator Butler sees life closing
in on the 96 members If "a
laudable principle of etiquette
is to become an infiexible man
date governing the utterances Of
United States Senator'S" Sen
ator Butler went on to say he
himself wouldn't have spoken so
sharply as did Senator McCar-
thy to Senator Hendrickson ana
Gen. Zwicker. But he feels that
"the Senate and the people stand
to lose much more than they
gain II the Senate in censuring
Senator Mccarthy rules that
Senators have no right to i'm
pugn the motives of individual
Senators responsible for official
actlon nor to reflect upon their
official action they took"
This wave of self-pity which
swept the Republican side did
not extend to Senator Watkins,
the beleagured chairman of the
select committee which recon-
mended censure. Yet the white
faced Senator from Utah labored
under working conditions that
most observers felt any sena-
torial union should compassion
ately investigate.

us to govern or regulate our

Referring to the Zwicker Incl

not suggesting that any Senator
was ineligible to sit in judgment
on Senator Mccarthy or was
moved strictly by partisanship
But he added that II am only re-
minding you that here is an
other good reason to re-examine

Communists Order
Easing Of Attacks on
Clergy and Believers.
sy NE Asseeiassd Press

MOSCOW. Nov. IL Soviet
Communist Party chiefs told Red
propagandists today to continue
their tub-thumping for atheism
but to stop rough stuff against
the churches.
Insulting attacks against be-
levers and the clergy can only
lead TO strengthening and even
intensification Of religious pref
udice among the people," de-
clared q decree of the party's
central committee.
The unexpected order, signed
by Party Secretary Nikita s.
krushchev and published in the
oflcial party newspaper Pravda,
followed a Soviet press campaign
against religion.
Campaign Out of Hand.
The campaign, which began
several months ago, apparently
got out Of hand in some places
with local officials resorting to
persecution of believers and the
clergy.
The new decree does not mean
that religion and the churches
are to operate as freely in Russia
as in the West. But it said it was
aimed at protecting the honest
Soviet citizen" who still is under
the influence of all kinds Of re-
ligious beliefs"
Complaining of attacks against
the clergy and believers by in
dividual newspapers and some
lecturers, the decree said:
"In a number of districts,
there were tolerated cases of Of
ficial interference in religious
activity as well as rude atti-
tude toward the clergy.
Propaganda Mistakes.
"This kind of mistake in anti
religious propaganda basically
contradicts the program and
policy of the Communist Party
in relation to religion and be-
levers and is a violation Of re-
peated instructions of the party
about the impermissibility of
hurting the feelings Of believ-
ers." 1t continued.
Ordering the party organiza-
ton to "in no manner permit
insults to the feelings of be-
levers and clergy nor any Of
ficial interference in the activ-
ity of the church." the decree
said it was silly and harmful
to place some Soviet citizens
under political suspicion for
their religious beliefs"
Instead. patient. well organ
lied scientific atheistic propa-
ganda among the believers will
help them finally free them
selves from their religious er-

BY that time, Senator Case,
another member of the commit
tee, was taking on Senator Nc
Carthy. He was praising the
Wisconsin Senator's dramatic
results" in the field Of Commu-
niSt-hunting. Then he went on
to make a statement that will
probably be heard again during
the debate. "Just because a Sen
ator has honorably served in one
field does not create immunity
from responsibility for actions in
another field" said Senator Case.
as Senator Mccarthy hungrily
awaited another chance at the
floor and Senator Watkins sat
in the aisle looking like a man
who is finding "a doubly dis
tasteful" task almost beyond en-
