conclusion that 1t IS not all %
Counting the thousands of dol
lars may look amusing and pleas
ure-giving from the viewpoint of
those who had been watching from
the sidelines; but it has not al
ways been so from my own ex-
perience.
It would have been totally
pleasurable and beneficial if the
thousands of dollars that passed
through my hands went into my
pockets Immediately afterwards
and for keeps; but it was not so,
for 1 had to make an exact ac-
counting of it, and the proceeds
had to go to the Filipino Commun-
ity treasury, even to the last
penny.
1t would have been truly pleas
urable and beneficial if 1 were a
manager of a contestant where I
got "cut" for my efforts in plan
ming the strategy of campaign.
1t would have been more bene-
fetal if 1 were parent of a can
didate where 1 shared both in the
hOnOrs of the royal reward and in
the benefit of the dough that came
with the hOnOr-which sometimes
runs into thousands of good Am
erican dollars.
But, as merely chairman of the
Queen Contest Committee, 1 Shout
dred the responsibility of making
the contest a success and equally
assumed the sole responsibility of
seeing that no penny was mislaid
If, by carelessness or through cir
cumstances beyond my control,
the money did not tally with the
figures as reported from time to
time, I had to make the deficiency
good to make the report clear and
acceptable So, instead of a pleas
ure and benefit, I had my share
of headaches and fears, for, as a
poor man, could not afford to
cover big chunks of money under
whatever monetary system. Luck
lily, however, have never found
any occasion in which the money
handed to me was short under
strict accounting. But, just the
same, the share of responsibility
was there for me- If it was a
pleasure to some, 1 did not find it |
exactly so.
Even in the actual counting of |
the money one slight slip of the |
finger and a mistake of the eyes
would make a 100 out of a 10, or
vice versa, and even a 10 was
short of 1 and was really 9. If |
there was anything 1 enjoyed in
the whole course, it was the real
ization that 1 was doing a certain
form of service to the Community
to which belong, and doing it
within the best of my knowledge
and ability, and finally contribut-
ing to whatever tangible progress
the Community may have to its
name as a result of these little
services I have rendered through
the Queen Contests.

House Group Studies
Plan 10 Permit N,
Radio at Hearings
By Robert K. Welsh

The House Rules Committee
may decide today whether to
recommend that committee hear
ings be open to telecasting and
broadcasting. a procedure op-
posed by Speaker Rayburn.
The Speaker maintains that
House rules prohibit radio. TV,
motion picture and still camera
coverage while committees are
in session. The issue reached
the Rules Committee in a reso-
luton introduced by Representa-
tive Meader, Republican. of
Michigan.
This would amend House rules
50 that each committee would
have discretion upon such terms
and conditions as it deems advis-
able" to permit the coverage of
its proceedings by radio and Tv.
It also would authorize "dissemi-
nation of news of such proceed
ings by other methods and media
OF communication"
No Ban in Senate.
The Senate has no ban on use
Of TV. radio and camera equip
ment during hearings of It's COM
mittees. During the 83d Con-
gress the then Speaker Martin
interpreted House rules as open
ing the door for Tv and radio
coverage Of hearings under GER
tain circumstances.
Before taking up the Meader
resolution and hearing Mr.. Mea-
der. the Rules Committee
planned today to continue o
discussion started yesterday on
a resolution specifying q code
Of fair practice" for committee
sessions.
Representative Doyle, Demo-
crat. of California, and several
other House members who spon-
sored the bill explained 1t would
apply to House committees only
when taking testimony and re-
ceiving evidence in connection
with investigations.
Provisions Few.
Unlike several codes" suggest
ed in recent years by individual
members Of committees in Con-
gress, the Doyle resolution con-
tains comparatively few provis-
ions. It's sponsors told the Rules
Committee many complications
might arise if such a code tried
to cover too much ground.
The principal sections would
provide that testimony be taken
by not less than two members of
a committee or subcommittee,
that at the start of each hearing
the chairman should clearly
state the subject and scope of the
investigation, that witnesses
could be accompanied by lawyers,
but only to advise them on "con-
stltutional rights" that the COM
mittee would have greater, au-
thority to punish breaches of
order or to cite for contempt and
that testimony in executive ses-
sion could not be made public
by a chairman alone, but would
require consent of the committee.
Protection for Witnesses.
Mr.. Doyle called attention to
another provision he said is
especially desirable to safeguard
citizens in general and the com
mitteeS. This is a requirement
that testimony deemed likely to
defame. degrade or incriminate
a person shall first be heard in
closed session and that any per-
son so named shall have an
opportunity to appear as a wit
ness and request that other wit
nesses be subpoenaed.
The Rules Committee was in
formed that several House COM
mittees have adopted some of
these procedures.

Mccarthy Charges
Army Negligence in
Monmouth Security


Senator Mccarthy Republican.
Of Wisconsin today accused Army
officers of grossly negligent and
incompetent" handling Of secur-
ity risk cases at the radar labora-
tories at Fort Monmouth. N. ].
He made public a document
alleging that Army officials dis
played an unco-operative and
deceptive attitude" toward the
Senate Investigations subcom-
mittee headed by Senator Nc
Carthy In the last Congress.
Senator Mccarthy had planned
to file the document as a report
to the Senate. In a last-minute
switch. he announced he was fl
ing 1t instead with the subcom-
mittee's parent. the Government
Operations Committee.
The subcommittee's three
Democratic members declined to
sign 1t, declaring in a statement
that I'VE can neither accept the
credit or responsibility for this
report" Most of the Fort Mon
mouth hearings were held dur
ing six months in which they
boycotted the subcommittee in
a row with Senator Mccarthy.
The three are Chairman Nc
Clellan, Democrat. of Arkansas,
and Senators Jackson, Democrat,
of Washington. and Symington,
Democrat. of Missouri.
Charges Spy Ring.
Senator McCarthy's document
said the investigation showed
that the Rosenberg spy ring had
stolen Signal Corps secrets for
Russia at Fort Monmouth and
may on the basis of available
evidence. still be operating"
Secretary of the Army Stevens
said during Senator McCarthy's
probe that the Army's own in
vestigation had turned up no
current espionage there.
Senator McCarthy's inquiry
was one Of the sparks that set
of last years Mccarthy Army
hearings. but his report men,
toned those hearings only as
source material on what wit
nesSes had said about security at
Fort Monmouth.
The report did not name "the
responsible officials of the Army
Signal Corps" who, it contended,
"were grossly negligent and in
competent in failing to take
proper action on individuals re-
ported to them to be loyalty and
security risks"
Nor did it name any names in
saying that Army officials dis
played an unco-operative and
deceptive attitude" toward the
subcommittee.
Claims Big Results.
In a summary of claimed re-
suits Senator Mccarthy said
"the subcommittee achieved IN
two weeks what the commanding
general at Fort Monmouth had
been trying to achieve for 81
months, namely the suspension
OF an accumulation of loyalty
and security risks employed at
the secret radar laboratories"
Maj. Gen. Kirke B. Lawton,
the posts commander, had made
that statement in the Mccarthy
Army hearings, and the report
qouted him. Gen. Lawton later
was retired.
The summary also said that
after the inquiry started, IS Fort
Monmouth employees were sus-
pended ION loyalty and security
grounds" eight of them ulti-
mately being fired and 3 resign
ing while under investigation. It
did not say how many were re-
inStated.
Fort Monmouth on December
30 gave this as the status of the
IS cases: IA reinstated with
clearance after hearings; six
reinstated without charges be-
ing brought; three reinstated
without charge but later re-
signed; one reinstated without
charges but without full clear
ance; eight dismissed after hear
ing; three awaiting decisions or
hearings.
