ToyIor Plans Court est:
OF Loyalty Boord Ruling

William Henry Taylor, an
official of the international
Monetary Fund, will appeal the
adverse findings of the Inter-
national Organizations Employees
Loyalty Board which has ac-
cused him of espionage and
subversive activity.
Mr.. Taylor's attorney, Byron
N. Scott, told The Star he viii
ask the United States District
Court to review the case on the
basis of the fact the boards
findings were based on informa-
ton supplied by unnamed, un-
identified and unsworn people. "
He said he will file suit for a
|declaratory judgment.
Mr.. Scott also will ask the
johnson Subcommittee of the
Senate Civil Service Committee
to make a complete review of
the entire case. which has been
hanging fire for eight years.
Mr.. Taylor is still working at
the Monetary Fund. The opin-
ion of the board is strictly ad-
visory, and is under considera-
ton by Monetary Fund officials.
Born In Canada
Mr.. Taylor, a Canadian-born
United States citizen, has con-
tended that his sole accuser is
Elizabeth Bentley. and that her
Testimony linking him with the
Nathan G. Silvermaster Govern
ment espionage ring has been
studded with inconsistencies. "
But the board in it's decision said
its findings were based on
derogatory information from
many sources"
Mr.. Scott, who will ask the
board to reconsider its decision,
said the board never would ad-
nit it had anything from Miss
Bentley"
But" he said, mo other wit
ness has ever given any such
testimony in public"
Here is the boards conclusion
about Mr.. Taylor's loyalty:
This board Is convinced that
the employe has engaged in
espionage and subversive activ-
lity against the United States
that he was placed in a position
in the Treasury Department
Iby Communists and espionage
agents for the purpose of obtain.
ling his assistance and co-opera'
ton in the treacherous plan'
land objectives, and that he wa
land possibly still is, an adherent
Ito the Communist theology.
cit is the finding of the board
based on all the evidence. thai
there is reasonable doubt as tt
the loyalty of William Henry
Taylor to the Government of the
United States"
Worked Under White
Mr.. Taylor, who began his
Government service in the Divi-
sion Of Monetary Research of the
Treasury Department in l941
under Harry Dexter White
Joined the Monetary Fund in
l946.
Evening star., 1955-07-21

Mr.. Taylor's appeal to the
courts will be based on the re-
cent Supreme Court ruling in
the case of DR.. John, P. Peters, a
Government consultant accused
of being a security risk. While
the court never did rule on the
validity of testimony from m-
identified informants in loyalty
cases. it did deny the right of
loyalty review boards to post
audit loyalty cases.
Mr.. Taylor, who publicly chal-
lenged Miss Bentley's veracity
last spring, has steadily denied
the charges against him. AL
though he had no comment on
the boards finding, Mr.. Scott
said his client was confident Of
eventual vindication.
HE knows he hasn't done any
Iof those things" Mr.. Scott said.
I"He knows that eventually the
truth has got to come out"
Other Charges Cited
Other charges the board made
against Mr.. Taylor included the
following:
/. That he was a member OF
the Communist Party in Hawai-
and Washington, that he dis.
played sympathy for Communist
aims and objectives in public anc
private gatherings.
| 2 That he was "far from
frank" in testifying about hi,

in Hawaii.

Drop the Russell bonus OF

ment for veterans to volunteer

Provide a substitute incentive
under which man who has
served one year in the armed

ferred to an active reserve unit
for three years. This would be
an inducement to draftees to
cut their two years in the Army
in half bv joining the reserves.
1t is an effort to meet the con-
tention of the Defense Depart
ment that some seasoned serv-
icemen are needed to achieve a
balanced reserve force, which
otherwise would consist entirely
! of rockies coming out of the
six-month training program. 1t

incentive plan would be at the
option of the Defense Depart
ment.

years as the overall period of

The bill is designed to build

The decision of the Joint
Atomic Energy Committee to

bill and the Senate Commerce

he was not trying to sidetrack

he pointed to differences in each

Accord Seen

House and Senate conferees
are expected to reach a final
agreement today on a compro-
mise military reserve bill. one of
the major issues President Eisen-
hover asked this Congress to
settle before 1t adjourns.
But another White House IA
vorite-the atomic demonstra-
ton snip-was moving in reverse
for the time being. and cast
further doubt on the ability of
Congress to complete its work
before the first or second week
of August.
The joint Atomic Energy Com
mittee late yesterday voted IL to

a subcommittee for new hear
irgs. which probably cannot be
held until next week.
Aid Bill Delayed
Meanwhile. the Senate put of
until tomorrow the $3.2 billion
foreign aid money bill, with
leaders confident they can beat
new attempts that will be made
to cut 1t back to the House total
OF $2.6 billion. The Senate will
pass and send this measure to
conference by Saturday.
But this would still leave one
or both houses with a variety
of important measures awaiting
action next week if the July
80 adjournment goal is to be
reached.
In the House this would in
clude the housing and highway
bills, with a possibility that the
controversial school construction
program may yet emerge from

In the Senate, action would
still be pending on the SIS bill

have removed so top postal
career jobs from civil service.
The jobs are those of regional
and district directors.
The wave of criticism follow
ing the Senate committees ac-
tion caused the Democratic lead
ership to hold up further action
on the bill. Political reasons
enter into it. The Democrats in
next years election campaign
plan to rely heavily on the
charge that the Republicans
have sabotaged civil service dur
ing the past few years. But the
action of the Democratic-domi-
mated committee seeking to re-
move the postal career jobs from
civil service in hopes of getting
patronage for the Democrats If
they win control Of the White

Democrats vulnerable to the

after the Constitution avenue
bridge Is completed. The Penn
sylyania Railroad Bridge will
retain the draw feature.
Sometime before then. craft
requiring the bridges to be
opened will have to give six hours
notice. This will provide further
savings because part-time bridge
tenders will be needed only when
their services actually are re-
quired. Mr.. Wadsworth esti-
mated q saving Of $50.450 a year
under this policy and an addi-
tional $40 900 when the bridges
are permanently sealed.
The Corps OF Engineers acted
after it was determined that the
extent of commerce and navi-
cation today does not justify the
large expenditures of building
and maintaining draw spans. Mr..
Wadsworth said.
Although commerce is about
equal to the days when the draw
bridges were devised. more barges
and tankers are being used. New
bridges must have q minimum
clearance Of 27.5 feet above the
mean low water level.
