Federal Action
Urged on Baby
Black Market
BY DON S. WARREN

District officials have joined
with some Federal spokesman in
urging the need of some Federal
Government power to help con-
troll Interstate "black market"
traffic in the sale of children for
adoption.
Their views were expressed
late yesterday before the Kefau-
yer Juvenile Delinquency Sub
committee Of the Senate as it
considered the bill to put the
Federal Government into play to
help the States with their adop-
ton problems.
Gerard w. Shea, District Di-
rector OF Public Welfare, took
the position that there was nc
great problem here since Con-
gress in 1914 adopted a rather
strict child placement law. But
he agreed there were some loop
holes to be considered.
These were pointed up by some
other District witnesses.
Assistant Corporation Counsel
Clark F. King, told the Kefauver
subcommittee, Il don't see how
we can control this situation un-
less we have power for the Fed
|eral Government to intervene. /"
Problem of Witnesses
He had in mind the problem
OF getting witnesses to come here
to testify in cases of District
adoption where the witnesses
were beyond the confines of the
District. \
How it works was detailed by
an unnamed Washington po-
licewoman who told the Senate
subcommittee a Washington
physician affiliated with a pri-
vate hospital here has been
evading the requirements of the
District act. This law forbids
anyone but a licensed agency
except one closely related to the
persons involved-to handle or
to assist in the placement or the
adoption of a child.
The policewoman told the
Senate subcommittee of instances
in which the ban on outside
interference had been evaded by
having the mother of the child
meet with prospective adaptive

that he had changed his mine

IA. Prolonged hearings dragged
out all the old testiinony-anc
persuaded the hearing examine
that there was no case agains,
AD-X2. Last night, the com.
mission itself, by vote of 4 t.
0. confirmed the position thai
the ETC attorneys who brought
the charges and therefore hac
the burden of proof, had moi
submitted enough evidence tt
substantiate their case. Mr.
Richie. therefore, was free from
Government entanglements.
Throughout the years of con.
troversy, Mr.. Richie acted a.

Congress-" he said, had M
intention of creating a public
authority" He insisted restora-
ton of the franchise would bt
consistent with that view.
Strike Possibility Raised
Both he and Representative
Hoffman. Republican of Mich.
igan, said they had received let
tiers from the transit workers
union warning that passage OF
the restoration measure might
lead to a strike when the labor
contract runs out in August.
Mr.. Halleck asked, What as
surance do we have that there
would be no strike under the
public authority?' He pointed
out that the Senate, in approx
ing the public ownership meas
ure, had voted down a proposal
to prohibit strikes.
"Are we going to assume that
the public authority would be
generous enough to prevent
strikes?" he asked. e
Opposing the bill, Representa-
tive Heselton, Republican OF
Massachusetts,. declared that il
the franchise is restored it will
not solve the problem. with
in three years time it will be
back in our laps and we'll have
to do something about it," he
said.
Praise From Chairman
Chairman Priest of the House
Commerce Committee praised

drafted the bill for doing an Eek
haustive, dedicated job" The
restoration, he said, was the
best way of assuring residents
OF this area they will have ade-

He was echoed by Representa-.

He said that if the same
changes in the franchise which
are now proposed had beer
granted earlier there would have

"monstrous security dismissal" of
Mr.. Foster be readjudicated in
light of it.
Hearing Board Split
Mr.. Lawton was employed
as a maintenance carpenter al
Fort Lawton, Wash, at the time
of his dismissal in 1858. His
hearing board split, 2 to 2, and
the Army decided to drop him
Both Mr.. Foster and his wife
testified last November before the
Senate Subcommittee on Consti-
tutional Rights. Mrs. Foster
who has a sensitive job at the
Seattle Port Of Embarkation, also
was suspended by the Armv on
security charges, but was even
tually cleared.
The subcommittee said later
that Mrs. Foster had been "sus-
pended on the same charges of
her husbands alleged associa-
tionS" and asserted:
UNLESS the national security
is pictured as a capricious and
tickle woman, it is hard to
understand why national security
should condemn the husband
and clear the wife on the basis
OF the same facts"
Party Membership Denied
The Army had advised the
subcommittee last February that,
after several reviews, it had
decided not to reinstate Mr.
Foster. 1t was explained that
Mrs. Foster was cleared because
lit was determined that she was
not susceptible to significant
and demonstrable influence OF
domination" by her husband.
Mr.. Foster, who said he had
been cleared by the Army under
the Truman loyalty program and
again by the Office of Naval
Intelligence for a Navy job in
Alaska, denied he ever belonged
to the Communist party or ever
knowingly attended any of its
meetings.
Both the Senate subcommittee
and the Urban League have said
that no evidence against Mr.
Foster was introduced at his
security hearing.
