version. In some cases scientists
with political enemies who have
applied for grants for medical
research have been told nothing
by the Government but indirectly
have been informed that they
would do better If they applied
for their academic department
and left their own names of the
application.
Shortly after DR.. Pauling was
refused the Government grant
for research on sickle anemia,
the department of chemistry at
the California Institute of Tech
nology chairman: DR.. Pauling)
applied for the same grant, US
ing names of two associates but
emitting that of DR.. Pauling. The
grant was quickly made.
Later the National Science
Foundation, also a Government
agency but with different opin-
ion, quickly granted money to
DR.. Pauling in his own name.
In such cases. there is every
evidence that the greatest loss is
not to the individual. but to the
Government and the public.

IF a scientist is henceforth to

curity system as it has operated
for eight years.
The Supreme Court has agreed
to review the case of DR.. Peters
to see If he was deprived of con-
stitutional rights, even though
1t has long been agreed that no
one has a constitutional right
to a Government job. DR.. Peters
asserts that today the term "se-
curity risk" involves more than
loss Of a Government job. He
asserts 1t also includes q liveli-
hood. a profession or q place in
society.
The original design of the se-
curity system was to provide
department heads enough infor-
nation to decide which citizens
would be suited for Government
work in times of international
stress. No guilt or innocence was
involved, no punishment, no de-
liberate effect on private life.
This way, the Constitution pre-
sented no barrier. But political
exploiters had other ideas.
Program Exploited
Adventures were quick to rec
ognize that the security issue Of
fered fame, fortune and political
power. BY spectacular exploita-
tion, the original intent of the
program has BEEN changed until
today the security risk" label
may cripple a mans position for
a lifetime, despite the undisputed
fact that the great majority OF
risk cases have nothing to dc
with loyalty.
Even in loyalty cases, no deter
mination of legal guilt is in
volved. In 1949. for example, DR.
Peters was investigated and
cleared. In 1851, his case was re-
opened, and this time he was
charged with Communist Party
membership, which he denied
and. after a hearing, he was
cleared again. In 1858, he was
charged again. The appeal board
did not know the identity of the
accusers or even if they had
made the accusations under
oath. DR.. Peters again denied the
charges under oath and pre-
sented witnesses, including an
ex-president of Yale. The Gov
ernment presented no case. In
June Of that year he was dis
missed as a security risk.
May Kill System
If the Supreme Court decides
that the Government should pre-
sent a legal case, on the basis
that the security risk" label is
too disastrous for a man to carry
without legal safeguards, then
the present security system will
be ended. For this the critics OF
security cannot be blamed. The
fault will lie with those ex-
ploiters of security whose sloppy
methods. incompetent admin
istration and harassment of in
nocent persons wrecked the only
possibility of a fair and efficient
program.
Confusion from high sources
has not helped. Statistics show
that the great majority of Sc
curity cases involve no suspicion
OF disloya]ty. Yet high officials
have often given the public the
impression that the term "secu.
rity risk" involves treason. Post
master General Arthur Summer
field referred to security risks in
this manner: Somehow I do
not feel too amiably inclined to-
ward people who make treason
a preoccupation." Senator Joseph
r. Mccarthy. Republican, of
Wisconsin. referred to security
risks: Almost all of them re-
moved because of Communist
activities or connections or per-
version" Gradually the term has
become a horrid label that can
ruin mems lives.
The distortion of security has
affected not only Government
workers, but their bosses. 1t

which normally aid in the move

which is intellectual and mi
metic, rather than vocal. Her
voice lacks resonance in the

understands what she sings, and
projects the songs well, by facial
expression. and by reserved and

She was best in the coloratura
repertoire, which shows to ad-
vantage her impeccable intona-
