Peters. and Assistant Attorney
General Warren e. Burger, who
represented the Government,
also experienced some rugged
exchanges with several of the
Justices.
Mr.. Burger began by defend
ing the authority of the former
Loyalty Review Board to act as
it did in the Peters case. Its
authority, he said, was clear
from the loyalty program exc
cutive orders and other regula-
tons. Justice Frankfurter re-
marked that he was not SO sure
about that or about a further
contention that such a boards
finding was merely advisory.
On the constitutional issue,
Burger argued that the loyalty
hearing procedure was not a
punishment" He maintained
that in such an administrative
process the identity of certain
witnesses could properly be kept
not only from a suspected en-
ploye but also from the board
itself.
Justice Black wanted to know
whether a disloyalty finding was

was dropped from a part-time
consultant' job with the U. S.
Surgeon Generals Once on the
strength Of a loyalty review
board finding in 1858. He based
his appeal on the same basic
issue as in the Bailey case.
He protested that his consti-
tutional rights were violated
when. at a loyalty board hearing,
he had no opportunity to know
and cross-examine all witnesses
who gave information that led
to a finding of reasonable
doubt" about his loyalty.
Harlan Question
But at the very outset Of the
arguments yesterday Justice Har-
Ian asked Thurman Arnold, one
of the lawyers for DR.. Peters.
whether the former loyalty re-
view board had authority to
conduct a "post-audit" and make
such a finding against DR.. Peters,
who earlier had been cleared by
loyalty boards.
Mr.. Arnold. a former Assist
ant Attorney General and for
mer United States Court of APP
peals judge here, replied that
the board might have had such
authority. But he told the court
he preferred to win the case on
the constitutional issue involv-
ing lack of conformation at
hearings which could result in
a stigma" Of disloyalty being
placed on a Government en-
ploye.
THE question:" Justice Frank
furter snapped, sis not the point
on which you would prefer to
win this case. Justice Harlan
has called attention to a pos
sible limitation on the loyalty
review boards authority in this
instance"
Mr.. Arnold commented that,
Of course. the court traditionally
does not have to reach con-
stitutional issue If it can decide
a case on some narrower ground
But he declared that this is not
the issue here. as we see it," He
said he hoped the court would
rule on constitutionality of the
loyalty hearing method.

The Supreme Court seemed
split today on the issue Of the
Governments loyalty program.
Should 1t decide the constitu-
tional fate Of the entire loyalty
hearing procedure? Or should it
rule only on the power of a re-
view board that caused dismissal
of DR.. John p. Peters from q
Government job?
Oral arguments late yesterday
provided one of the most excit-
ing and searching sessions Of the
current term. Questions which
indicated wide differences among
the Justices themselves were SO
penetrating, insistent. varied
and far-reaching that the court
sat overtime, an extremely rare
occurrence.
AS the court pondered the
matter today-and awaited adj
ditionally requested briefs on
loyalty review board power-few
who attended the session would
predict either the nature or
range Of the final decision.
In the capacity-filled court
room yesterday were former
Secretary of State Dean Ache
son. Chairman Harry Cain of
the Subversive Activities Control
Board. security officers from
many governmental depart
ments, DR.. Peters himself, and
Miss Dorothy Bailey, as well as
attorneys for the Justice Depart
ment and DR.. Peters. Solicitor
General Simon E. Sobeloff, who
differed with his Justice Depart
ment associates on the Peters
case, was not present.
1881 Decision
In 1851 the Supreme Court d.
vided "A in affirming, without a
written opinion, the dismissal of
Miss Bailey from a u. S. Employ
ment Service job after a loyalty
board finding against her. At
that time Justice Clark, a former
Attorney General. disqualified
himself. Yesterday he remained
on the bench with his eight COL
leagues-including Chief Justice

Of guilt in an infamous crime. |"
Chief Justice Warren asked
whether the provision banning
future Federal employment for
any specified period in the case
Of such a dismissed employee
amounted to punishment.
Justice Frankfurter brought
on some of the liveliest argu-
ments when he said he found it
difficult to understand why the
Government would keep one of
its own agencies, such as a 10y
atty board. in the dark about
the identity of witnesses against
an employee.
This, to me-" he said, 'is as
important as the conformation
ISSUE"
Mr.. Burger replied that protec-
ton Of some informants and in
formation from the FBI was
necessary to prevent it from be-
ing seen by two many officials.
(, This. in turn. led to an appar-
ent misunderstanding over the
right of the Supreme Court itself

hearing before the loyalty review

board. Mr.. Potter told the court
that he could produce only the
transcript showing what DR..
Peters and favorable witnesses
had said. It would not disclose
the identity Of witnesses or all
detailed information on which
the boards ultimate finding was
based, he said.
Chief Justice Warren said he
had understood Mr.. Burger to
mean that the record" of the
hearing would be everything. Mr..
Burger explained that he meant
only the actual transcript of the
hearing. He indicated that even
the Supreme Court might not be
able to get the confidential FBI
information or names Of inform
ants against DR.. Peters without
an order from the President.
Mr.. Arnold and Mr.. Porter
said they did not question the
right Of the executive branch to
hire, fire or transfer personnel
with or without hearings in most
instances.
They declared, however, that

were involved and where q hear
ing was granted. an employee has

Senate Battle
 Over Tax Cut Appears Close

WASHINGTON, R-The out come of the Senate battle over an income tax cut appeared so close Saturday that both Democratic and Republican leaders took steps to guard against absentees.
 With the showdown vote set for next Tuesday or Wednesday, the word went out to all Senators to cancel any engagements which might take them away from Washington for those days.
 The New York Times in a dis patch from Washington by Will liam s. White, said President Els enhower was determined to veto any Democratic income tax-cut- ting legislation.'
 The Times said high Republi- can quarters" indicated the Presi- dent was resolved not to accept such a reduction even if he had to choose between that and allow ing the corporation and excise rates to fall"
 If the Democrats should bring off an income tax cut, the Times said, the Presidents course would be as follows:
 He would veto that reduction embodied in a bill to extend cor poration and excise taxes and would then send to Congress a message demanding immediate legislation to extend the excise and corporate levies unchanged.
 Sen. Byrd D-Va) and Republi- can Senate leaders continued to express confidence they had the votes to turn back any tax cut plan by a slim margin.
 But Democratic leaders still were trying to build up steam for their proposal to give sos mil lion dollar annual income tax re- duction to lower-in income families.

J ONEAO, RF-ln6 senate Er1- day passed a bill increasing the fuel tax by highway users from three to five cents a gallon and the House voted overwhelming to repeal a law creating a legisla- tive and examining committee at the 1853 Republican legislature
 The fuels tax bill was approved l3 to 3. It now goes back to the House for action on amendments but none of them change the basic tax rate proposals. The bill would increase the aviation gasoline tax by one cent a gallon and leave unchanged the present two cent tax on boat fuel
 Passage of those bills were highights of q long days legisla- tive grind The House never even adjourned for the dinner hour but continued straight into the evening with the three-hour job of reading the amended Employ ment Security Bill.

 The Senate came back for a night session at which the same routine was followed
 The evening session was used for the reading of a long list If bills while most of the senators worked in committees.
 Agreement Oil Delegates
 The afternoon action on numer- ous bills came after the highlight of the morning had been the agreement of both houses on a compromise for the method of cleo ing delegates to the statehood constitutional convention. The bill then was sent to the governor.
 The amended bill sailed thru both houses with only single vote against it, by Rep. Mclean.
 The Senate passed the House bill to create an Alaska Bar Assn. with powers to discipline attor- neyS for unprofessional conduct, subject to court review.
 The bill will now go to the governor.
 Fuels Tax Amendments
 The motor fuels tax bill had a long ride in the Senate as numer- ouS amendments were offered be- fore it finally was approved.

Neal Foster D-Nome). It failed by an II to 5 margin.
 Main arguments against adding to the tax for fishermen were by the southeast Alaska senators.
 Butrovich, the Finance Com mittee chairman who returned to his seat after a weeks severe ill., ness, estimated the bill would raise about six million dollars for the biennium as it stands.
 Fishermen Hard Hit
 The southeastern senators ar gued that the fishermen already are hard hit by diminished salmon runs and are working on a critic ally small margin. They contend ed the main purpose of the tax increase is to get money for high ways.
 Sen. William Egan tried an amendment to cut the increase for highway users to two cents a gallon but it lost on 12-4 vote. He described truck and car costs as already far higher in Alaska than in the States.
 Sen. Frank Barr offered an amendment to increase the avia- ton gasoline only by half a cent, instead of cent, because he said, bush pilots, too, have a sick in duStry." His motion failed on a 12-4 vote

 The repeal of the act which created the Legislative Investi- gating Committee brought run ming series of Democratic denun- citations of the Republican created commi tee.
 Speaker Wendell Kay declared the law should be knocked off the books forever" He contended the 1853 act gave the committee far too much power.
 Rep. Harry Palmer contended whole families had been harmed by the committees activities.
