By Mary McGrory

Chairman Celler of the House
Judiciary Committee recon-
mended yesterday that State De-
partment Security Chief Scott
Mcleod be replaced as admin
istrator of the Refugee Relief
Act by Edward Corsi Of New
York.
The proposal met strong OPP
position from Representative
Walter, Democrat, Of Pennsyl-
vania. He cited Mr.. Corsi, now
serving as special assistant to
the Secretary Of State for refu-
gee and migration problems, as
q member of the American Com
mittee for the Protection of the
Foreign-Born and the National
Lawyers Guild. Mr.. Walter
called them Communist organi-
cations.
Mr.. Celler replied that he
never knew Mr.. ,Corsi was af-
f1liated with these organizations
and said that if he was. then
"it would be a different story"
Wants Man Of "Soft, Sad Music. -
II hold no brief for MIR. Corsi, +"
said Mr.. Celler, 'but ! just want
an administrator whose heart is
attuned to the soft, sad music
Of humanity" He added that he
was sure Secretary Dulles would
not have made the appointment
If he had known that Mr.. Corsi
had such Affiliations.
Maybe he was rammed down
Dulles throat" said Mr.. Walter.
Later he told reporters he
thought Mr.. Corsi had been
"rammed down Dulles throat by
Dewey and that crowd" Mr..
Corsi. who was once United
States commissioner Of immi-
grafton and director Of Ellis
Island, served Gov. Dewey as
industrial commissioner in New
York State.
MIR. Corsi, who once was q
New York City mayoralty can
didate. issued Q prompt denial
Of Mr.. Walters charges.
Il am not Q member Of either
GROUP and never have been, /"
he asserted.
He added that he Ia not an
attorney and would have no
logical reason for being asso-
ciated with the National Law
yers' Guild.
Walter Admits an Error"
Later, Mr.. Walter, %ho is
chairman Of the House IN
American Activities Committee.
admitted that he was Gin error
In saying Mr.. Corsi had been
o member Of the guild. But he
stuck by his charge linking Mr..
Corsi to the other organization,
Mr.. Walter said Mr.. Corsi'a
name turned UP on o list Of
sponsors for the American Com
mittee for the Protection Of the
Foreign Born in 194l and 1912.
The Attorney General SIX
years later-in 1948-cited the
organization as subversive and
Communist. The House COM
mittee cited the group in a re-
port Of June rs. 1912. and again
OH March 20. 1914.
Mr.. Celler charged Mr.. Mcleod
with playing cruel game
pitting legal paragraphs against
human lives" In administering
the Relief Act.

For Corsi as Refugee Aid Chief

209, 900 refugees and relatives Of
United States citizens by 1856.
To date, 14.106 have actually
been admitted. BY the end of
January of this year, 10000 visas
had been issued.
Celler Accuses Mcleod.
Mr.. Celler, who called Mr.. Nc
Leod a "security-mad man." said
the State Department security
chiefs administration had been
"as incongruous as q Joke on o
gravestone. as incongruous az q
wedding dress at a funeral" Mr..
Walter. however. said he had no
complaint about Mr.. McLeod's
performance of his duty and
called his motives entirely
proper"
Mr.. Celler's proposed revisions
would write Mr.. Mcleod out as
administrator. He has also called
for replacement Of the acts re-
quirement of individual assur-
ances for refugees with group
assurances.
MIR. Walter has also proposed
revisions for the act. He would
leave Mr.. Mcleod in charge but
would liberalize certain housing
and employment provisions which
require certification from the
United States Employment Serv-
ice and housing authorities that
no refugee would, displace any
American from either his home
or his job.
10000 Expected Monthly.
The only other witness before
the committee. Pierre Jacobsen.
deputy director of the Intergov-
ernmental Committee for Euro
pean Migration, told the COM
mittee his group expected an in
f1ux of 10000 escapes per month
from Eastern Germany and
other satellite countries.
Mr.. Walter told Mr.. Jacobsen
he was not satisfied with border
screening Of these escapes. Mr..
Walter said that from interviews
he had seen in Bavaria ut would
be possible for Joe Stain to
come over and no one would
have known the difference"
Mr.. Celler charged that under
Mr.. McLeod's administration Of
the act not one escapee had
entered the United States.

Necessity For
AuditCFiulns Is
Under Discussion
Need For improved EIemen-
tory Centers Also Is
Pointed Out

Whether or not the audi,oriums
could be built at the two high
schools in the immediate future,
was a question under discussion
last Wednesday evening hy a group
IF interested persons at Southern
High school.
Among those present were MEM
bers of the auditorium study COM
mittees representing Northern
High and Southern Teach
er associations; Willard L. Haw-
kins, county superintendent Of
schools; members Of the Board Of
County Commissioners and Board
of Education, and the principals
of each school, approximately 30
in all. John Wolf, president Of
Southern High PIT A., was gen
eral chairman.
Other basic educational needs Of
the county and the county's finan-
cial structure were included in the
discussion, along with possibilities
for state and federal legislation.
Mr.. Wolf explained that the
committees had gathered informa-
ton on sizes of auditoriums in
other counties in Maryland, the
trend across the country, and the
probable cost based on figures pro-
vided by the State Department Of
Education. The committee found
that the trend was to build small
er auditorium, keeping down initial
cost and subsequent maintenance
costs. 1t was noted that the small
auditorium presented a better edu-
cational environment for youth as
well as a more desirable environ
ment for spectators. The commit
tees also learned that the original
estimate of 100000 to build both
auditoriums was likely a great deal
higher than the actual cost, should
local construction be used,

of the Board of County Commits

enced the thinking of al least a few
people. We have been either
part Of the worlds problem or part
of its answer.
All Of us know people who carry
grudges around with them for
years and years. l know two sisters,
who for the twenty years | have
known them, never meet or talk

to their childhood. | am very fond
of both of them, but somehow the
last few years | have avoided
them. They almost brighten me,
and leave me with a feeling Of
emptiness just talking to them.
| know two sisters-in-law, who
each have beautiful homes, fine
husbands and families, everything
one would think to make them hap
Ply. But, talk to either one of them
a little while, and one can feel the
envy they have for each other.
They look with jealous eyes on
every new gadget each one gets
and seem afraid one may get some
thing the other does not have. Life
becomes a race to see who can out
do the other. They help to add to
the sum total of the worlds jeal-
ousy.

county amounted to $I,765.928,

ton of the two new high schools,

Need For Elementary Centers
Willard Hawkins. county super
intendcnt of schools, pointed out
the need for auditoriums and also
indicated the urgent need for inn
provement in many of the elemen-
taly school ccnters of the county.
He said, if it came to choice Of

The other he recommended eXpendi-
lures be made to improve the ele-
mcntary school buildings. He esti-
mated it would cost approximately
one million dollars to put the ele-
mentary centers in good condition.
Mr.. Hawkins also expressed the
hope that state and federal legis-
lation might be enacted in the near
future for counties like Garrett.
Mr.. Wolf said number of peo-
pie present expressed concern for
Improvement in elementary school
buildings as well as noting the
drawback in postponing the COM
pletion Of the high school buildings
He said it was pointed out several
times that the future of the county
