A former Government statis-
Itician-economist, who was fired
by the Army Department in 1850
declined to say today whether
he ever transmitted information
on Americas war potential to
members of the Communist con-
spiracy.
Morris M. Levine. 48, acknowl-
edged to the House Un-American
Activities Committee that he
helped direct a survey beginning
i'm December, 1910. of the opera
Itions of IL defense industries and
the possible effect of weakened
Iblackouts" on them. But he in
|voked the Fifth Amendment
when asked whether he was a
Communist at the time.
The witness said the survey
was made for the advisory COM
mission to the Council of Ma
tional Defense while he was en-
Iployed at the Labor Department.
Mr.. Levine, who is learning
the type-setting business in Chi
lcago, testified that he is not now
ia Communist but refused to say
whether he had ever been.
2O-Yeaf Service
He told the committee he
worked for the Federal Govern
lment for 20 years, starting at
the Bureau Of the Census in
1880. He was also employed at
the Agriculture Department
briefly before he transferred to
the Bureau Of Labor Statistics
lin 1888. He said he moved to
| the War Production Board in
1912 and then to the Army in
! 1916.
! Mr.. Levine said the Army sent
him almost Immediately to
/ Tokyo, where he worked in a re-
search and statistics unit.
( Under questioning, Mr.. Levine
refused to say, on grounds OF
possible self discrimination
whether he had engaged in SUBJ
versive activities in Japan OF
whether he knew any Communist
at Gen. MacArthur's headquar-
tiers.
! Asked whether he was fired by
the Army "as a security risk" Mr.
Levine invoked the Fifth Amend
ment because, he said, his dis
charge was a matter Of record.
Movement "Sabotaged"
/ Chairman Walter interrupted
to say that he was shocked to
find" after discussion with Gen
Macarthur and talks with others
later on a trip to japan that
despite the American effort to
assist the japanese, there were
elements in our own forces who
we're trying to sabotage that
movement"
Mr.. Levine also refused to tell
the committee whether he had
ever turned over any informa-
tion ne obtained at Supreme
Headquarters to any unauthor-
lied person.
Earlier Irving Richter, identi-
fed yesterday as a one-time fell
low Communist by James E.

DAM, The Neither

of Rotterdam has taken issue
with a Rotterdam judge who
charged that he is in the service
of foreign state-the Vatican
and thus has no right to vote in
the coming elections.

eishop-eleet Martin A. Jansen
automatically lost ths rights OF
his Dutch citizenship "by ae-

In reply, the Bishop-elect of
the new Rotterdam diocese said
Judge Dirkzwsger is confused,
noting that the Vatican state and
the Catholic Church are two sep
arate entities. The office of bish.
op is purely spiritual one in the
service of the Church, he said,
and bishops have nothing TO dc
with the administration of the
Vatican.
