Eighty-one students were grad
uated yesterday in the 23d and
final commencement exercises OF

great ideas of mankind, includ-
ing those of Miss Miner"
He cited the constant striving
by the American Negro for equal
ization in society as the factor
that thwarts communism among
Negroes. He said "the alchemy

professions"

AS had been anticipated by
early estimates, 1854 proved to
be still another record year in
nearly all phases of activity for
The Holstein Friesian Associa-
ton of America.
A total of 195,964 animals were
registered, the highest yearly to.
tai in the Associations history.
This made 1854 still another
ecord-breaking year in a series
of banner 12-month periods since
World War II. An unprecedent-
ed 169,338 animals were regis
tered in 1916. The mark was set
at 177,925 in 1949, 1874, 246 in 1850,
191 ,638 in 1851. The 1852 total
was anly slightly below 1851 and
1853 followed with another ex-
tremely close total, practically
holding the 1851 level.

"By letter the State Depart

from the present Republican Ad-
ministration we have now re-
ceived word that not one of the
S TIA tie Department employees
charged in 1850 and investigated
by the Tydings Committee has
been found to be Communist or
disloyal to the United States.
Coming as this does from the
present Administration in Wash
Nington, this should clear up any
question in the public mind.
"The State Department in it's
letter to me further verifies the
findings of the Tydings Commit
tee by stating that, of the 80-odd
names given to the Tydings Com
mittee by the Wisconsin Senator
as persons then employed, only
40 were in fact employed in the
State Department in 1850; 33 had
resigned or left the State Depart
ment prior to that year and sew
en- of the names given to the
Tydings Committee by the Wis

the State Department had never
been employed by the State De-

further reports that II of the 40
who were working in the State
Department in 1850 are still en-
ployed in the State Department
in 1855 and that 10 others who
were working for the State De-
partment in 1850 have been
transferred to OF er United
States governmental agencies.
Realizing that the 1850 inves-
tigation by the Tydings Commit
tee of the accused State Depart
ment employees and the publicity
following that investigation has
left a great deal of doubt and
confusion in the public mind as
to the true facts in the case, the
letter to me from the State De-

employees have been found to be
Communists or disloyal to our
government, should clear up this
matter for all time.

HOlstein Group Has Record Year

In addition to establishing a
new all-time record from within,
the Association set a new mark
industry-wide by registering over
81 percent of all dairy cattle in
1854, the first time in recent his
tory the so percent mark has
been passed. This means that
over half of all dairy cattle regis
tered during 1854 in the United
States were Holstein-F riesians,
the remainder being divided be-
tween Ayrshires, Brown Swiss,
Guernseys and Jerseys.
In addition to registry records,
new highs in volume were estab-
lished in cows on official test,
with 1924 cows currently being
tested in Herd Improvement
Registry. 22,911 cows were classi-
fled for type and this, too, is a
new high mark.

GAS chairman of the Commit
tee on Post Office and Civil Serv-
ice of the United States Senate,
desire to clear up for the bene-
fit of Congress and the public
the facts concerning government
al employees as to whether any
of them have been found to be
Communists or disloyal to our
government under prior or the
present so-called Government Sc
curity programs.
''In order to proceed in an or
derby manner 1 thought it desir-
able to start at the very begin
ming. The charges of extensive
Communism and disloyalty of
employees in government were
first made by the Jr. Senator
from Wisconsin in February
1850. At that time the Wisconsin
Senator is reported to have said:
I hold in my hand the names of
205 members of the Communist
Party now employed in the State
Department; and later he said:
I hold in my hand the names of
81 card-carrying Communists
now employed in the State De-
partment.'
GAS a result of these charges,
the United States Senate directed
that an investigation be made. In
accordance, a committee was ap-
pointed which came to be known
as the Tydings Committee. After
extensive hearings, in which
three million words of testimony
were taken, the Tydings Commit
tee brought in a. report stating,
in effect, that the charges made
by the Jr. Senator from Wiscon-
sin had been found to be untrue.
Immediately upon the filing
of this report by the Tydings
Committee, hat committee was
charged win embarrassing State
Department employees who had
been accused by the Wisconsin
Senatorof being Communists.
This situation created confusion
in the public mind as to what the
real facts were. So in starting
my work to clear up the matter
of Communism concerning gov
eminent employees, 1 secured
from the committee files the
names of the employees of the
State Department against whom
the Wisconsin Senator had made
charges-there being some 80 in
number-as we'll as the names of
10 other individuals whom he had
publicly charged. I sent these
names to the State Department
in December 1854 and asked the
Department to inform me, first,
if any of these employees had
been found to be Communists or
disloyal to our government.

Icouraged" by the boards re-
Sponse.
Other sources indicate the
board has recommended that al
State employees be moved up one
notch on the merit system salary
scale next July. Such a pro-
lposal would cost well over s.
million.
Citing raises given to Balti-
more City and Federal workers
