would be improper for me to
make any comment until the
trial is completed"
Asked to comment on Senator
McCarthy's out-of-court state
ments, Publisher Philip L. Ora
ham Of the Washington Post and
Times-Herald said:
"If Senator Joseph Mccarthy
had followed the Hughes trial
proceedings. he would know that
the Washington Post and Times
Herald was furnished q set Of
documented charges against
him; that it subjected these doc
uments and allegations to the
most careful study and scrutiny;
that it discovered they were
false; that 1t did not print one
single word or use in any way,
these unsubstantiated charges.

to injure the Senator. In re-
jecting material. mostly plau-
sibly rendered. which would have
greatly damaged Senator Nc
Carthy. If it had been published,
the Washington Post and Times
Herald conformed to the highest
Journalistic standards which re-
quire the impartial and objective
handling Of news Of public men
and public affairs, regardless OF
personal views about them. II
the Senator had been equally
faithful to the standards of his
own profession, the Senate would
never have had any occasion to
censure him"
Virgins Put on Stand
| James Russell Virgins. execu-
tive editor Of the Washington
Post and Times Herald, testified
yesterday before Senator Nc
Carthy did.
| He said he first met Hughes
on June 9, 1854, at the home OF
1.-The papers managing editor. Al
fred Friendly. Also present was
Mr.. Rauh. Hughes had first
contacted Rauh.
i Mr.. Virgins related that
Hughes displayed Army dis
charge papers and other docu-
ments concerned with his mill
ltary service, o diary and addi-
ltional papers.
Mr.. Virgins said Hughes told
Iof what he described as irregu-
Ilarities on the part of the Sen
ator and his staff.
/ After listening to Hughes for
some time and examining his
documents. Mr.. Virgins said
that while II found it interest

Department.
Mr.. Erdmann recalled that
Mr.. Friendly had testified that
he. Mr.. Virgins and Mr.. Brad
ley had suspected that Hughes
might have been q Mccarthy
plant" and asked If this were so.
Mr.. Virgins denied he had en-
tertained any such suspicion,
saying he believed Hughes at the
time to be a Mccarthy employee,
but was not certain whether
Hughes was on the Senator's
official or private payroll.
Mr.. Virgins emphatically de-
MED Hughes grand jury testi-
mony that Mr.. Virgins had as
signed to Mr.. Marder q research
project concerning Matusow with
particular emphasis on the Ma
tional Committee for an Effec-
tive Congress concerning CO.
ordination or relation between
this group and Matusow.
Denies Attending Meeting
He also denied he attended q
meeting on August 2. 1854, with
Mr.. Friendly, Mr.. Marder and
Hughes. explaining that at that
time he was on a vacation. He
also denied having discussed Ma
tusow at any time in Hughes
presence In 1854.
Mr.. Virgins said he was I'M
able to check on the validity OF
Hughes story because Hughes
had requested that his identity
be protected for fear that Sen
ator Mccarthy would learn Of
his activities and would dismiss
him.
Following Mr.. Virgins as a
witness was Clayton Fritchey
deputy chairman of the Demo-
cratic National Committee and
editor Of the Democratic Digest
who had been provided by Hughes
with material similar to that
given to Rauh.
Mr.. Fritchey, who served as
administrative assistant to Pres
ident Truman from 1852 until
January, 1858, said he first met
Hughes on November l6. 1853, at
a dinner in the home of Brig.
Gen. Cornelius J. Mara (U.S.A.
