Leaves Estate
Valued at $4,000

A dispute has resulted IN WASH
ington over the estate of woman
who died in Garrett county, whose
wealth, revealed at her death,
amazed friends who say they paid
some of her bills and even fur
nished some of her food.
The issue is a $4,000 savings ac-
count of the late Mrs. Laura B.
James, who died August 49, 1854,
in Fricndsvillc. She was believed
to be in her 7O's when she died.
She had lived for years at 1121
Abbey Place, N. E., Washington,
Relatives took her to Garrett coun-
ty some seven or eight months be-
fore her death
Her surprising will was admitted
to probate in the Orphans Court
for Garrett county. Her cousin, Mrs.
NJ. Myrtle Schlossnagel Friends
Vile, was named as beneficiary and
eXecutrix
A. j. McGurn. of Arlington, is
opposing probation of the will in
Maryland In letters filed with the
District Register of Wills, he
charges that Mrs. James was still
a District resident when she died
McGurn, a private investigator
says he entered the case after try
ing unsuccessfully to get $4,000
from the estate for work he did for
Mrs. James. He said she told him
at the time she had no money to
pay him.
The legation of wills file also
notes that Mrs. Julia A. Mckinley,
2426 Newton street, N. E., a friend
of Mrs James, took care of her at
various times Mrs. Mckinley said
she assumed Mrs. James had some
money, since she was drawing pen
sion checks after her retirement
as Veterans Administration
clerk. But she did not realize the
size of her friends assets, she said
Mrs Mckinley said Mrs. James
habitually complained about power
ty Mrs Mckinley said she pur-
chased food for the woman and
paid for her care for three months
in a nursing home.
Mrs Schlossnagel's Washington
attorney Frank E. Scrivener, filed
a motion to dismiss McGurn's mo-
ton. Scrivener said his motion was
based on the explanation that Me
Gurn has no right to challenge the
Garrett county probating of the
estate
Mrs James formerly was Laura
B. Coddington, of Fricndsville. Her
next of kin are the issue of Calvin
Coddington, deceased brother,
survived by eight children and the
issue OF four deceased children
A caveat to the will of Mrs.
James was filed November %, 1854,
by Elsie NJ Article, a daughter of
Calvin Coddington. Stephen r..
Pagenhardt represents the cavca-
tor.
Issues we're sent to the Circuit
Court for trial but the case has

Lehman Says Government
"Mishandled" immigration Program

WASHINGTON, (JTA) = Sen.
Herbert H. Lehman attacked last
weekend the Administrators
"mishandling" of the emergency
refugee immigration program and
c all e d President Eisenhower's
Emergency Refugee immigration
Act tragic disappointment"
The Senator added that "the bot
tlenecks and BOBBY traps written
into the law and the incredible
red tape established by the Ad-
ministration have combined to
Illustrate the basic purpose of the
Act" which was the admission Of
214,000 refugees.
Earlier, Scott Mcleod, State
Department security officer and
administrator of the Refugee Re-
lief Act of 1858, criticized the
provisions OF the emergency act,
blaming them for the fact that so
few refugees had arrived here
under the terms of the act. He
suggested some liberalization of
the features of the act, but ex-
pressed doubt that even this
would make It possible for 100000
to arrive in this country before
the law expired.
Mr.. Mcleod reported that up to
last December 81, 17,050 visas
were granted to refugees qualified
under the act but that only 1906
of these refugees had arrived in
this country.

Is There Anti-Semitism in U. S. Loyalty Decisions?

falsely accusing Jews. How many of the more than
5000 persons fired by the Eisenhower Administra-
ton have been Jews? A reporter in Washington
may talk to an individual here or there who openly
complains. But most people keep quiet when fired
owing to fear that they will be unable to find other
employment if word spreads that they were drop
ped as a RED"
1t is known that attorneys have advised some
clients to say nothing about the fact that they
fired for security reasons despite the clients
tention that such charges were unjustified The
point made by such attorneys, and they many
is that it is courageous to~become cause celebre
but unwise if one is looking for job.
The security definitions are now so vague that
the government can dismiss employees without
actually accusing them of subversion. 1t is enough
to claim that the employee has friends or relatives
who are or were "leftwingers.'
Private defense industry has adopted govern
ment security standards. case is recorded by
Rep. Sidney R. Yates Illinois Democrat, who learn
ed that a young Jewish engineer was suspended
as a security risk because he once helped in the
movement of Jewish refugees from Europe to Pal
estne. Rep. Yates succeeded in getting an Army
screening board to grant hearing. After much
agony, the victim was cleared.
Rep Yates made public letter of thanks from
the young engineer ''While the decision is great
relief to me personally" he wrote, 81 am not
lieved of my very ardent conviction that the en-
tire security procedure needs correction and i'm
provement."
''There is no doubt that he is right" Rep. Yates
said "It goes without saying that none of us holds
any brief for government employee who is dis
loyal; but as Americans who believe in fair play
and justice we certainly don't want loyal govern
ment employees accused -"

WASHINGTON
Is Anti-Semitism factor in government loyalty
decisions based on anonymous accusations and the
arbitrary judgment OF individual security officers?
With this question in mind, Jewish organiza-
tons are attempting to evaluate the porents OF the
Wolf Ladejinsky, Abraham ChasanoW, and Fort
Monmouth cases. Consideration is now being given
to instances in which Jews, particularly those born
in Europe, are being turned down for some strate-
gle jobs without being told why.
Jewish organizations are that govern
ment workers like Ladejinsky, Chasanow, and the
Fort Monmouth Jewish employees have chance to
fight to clear their names But they also know that
rejected applicants for government employment or
turned down foreign applicants for U. S. vsas may
never learn what hit them. In such cases no expla-
nation is given, nor is one required under the pres
ent loyalty structure.
Individuals in the government are considered
g11iltv until they can prove themselves innocent.
This reverses the Western tradition which upholds
a mans innocence until the government proves him
guilty
The American Legion magazine which helped
bring about the loyalty program, has voiced con-
Germ that the monster is getting out of hand. The
magazine blasted the governments security fir
ings" in which veterans were dismissed because OF
malicious and untrue charges" The magazine
cited three cases in which Federal agencies refused
to renstate veterans even though the charges were
proved groundless. It quoted government spokes-
man as saying: "We're not interested in the truth
of the charges but only in the fact that the charges
have been made"
It is now clear to Jewish groups that anti
Semites may WELD unprecedented secret power by

PLAIN TALK
BY ALFRED SEGAL
OF INTERMARR1AGE

have just been reading in one
Of the Jewish press about a parent
group in one of our Jewish COM
mu ties coming out with a pur-
pU- TO discourage their teen-age
school kids from mixing socially
with their non-Jewish school
mates. That is to say. mixing at
parties.
Il forget the name Of the city
in which Jewish parents have
made this protest; the paper in
which the matter is reported has
disappeared off my desk? This
may suggest that l am not the
meticulous reporter I have pre-
tended to be all my adult life. A
good reporter should always have
the name and address of his SUBJ
lject at finger-tips.) o
Anyway. the fact that Jewish
parents are thinking that seriously
land collectively about their kids
lin such a matter. suggests the
worry concerning intarmarriage
at goes on among us. The fear
that if our teen-agers mix free
lily with non-Jewish teen agerS.
There may be irter,narriage and
linfermarriags has become one of
the vsxing Jewish problems.
myself am old enough to re-
member when intermarriage was
scarce in American Jewish life.
When it occurred, it was like some
prodigy of nature, such as the sun
suddenly stopping in its timeless
course, or, anyway, like papa
eloping with a wicked woman. A
rare intermarriage was something
to make gossip for long time in
any town.
I am thinking of Jewish life in
our own town long ago. Than the
German Jews. as they were call
led. were the social and business
leaders. They had two stately Re-
form temples and the Orthodox
used to think of than as being
practically goYin whose Reform
Judaism could come TO no good.
They felt sad for the Reformers.
Nevertheless, intermarriage was
very seldom among our Reform
Jews in those times, except for a
furry of intense shock when the
daughter of one of the rabbis Off
land married a non-Jew. The Or
lthodox, as I have heard, said then
shat was what you could expect
sto come out of Reform. They
God that their own chill
loren were so well protected be-
hind the ordinances of Sinai. They
felt sure the Reform Jews would
be intermarrying until they were
all assimilate and only Orthodov
Jews would survive. But that
didn't happen. Reform boys and
girls kept on marrying within the
Reform circle to continue their
generations in Reform temples.
But. oh. what changes! Today
intermarriage. of which there has
been plenty. has been occurring
mostly in families Of Orthodox
origin. Some of our most Ortno'
dox families have had to take H.
though tha most Of h m have
lrationalized to make the best they
could of If.

Culture is no longer the

To women, however, she
thinks goes a good deal of the
credit. Women before the
last war, were the intellectual

served. "Now the interest they
instilled in 80 years of educa-
tional work has flowered into
