Right 10 Invoke
'5th' Upheld by
Supreme Court
BY ROBERT X. WALSH

A broader Interpretation Of
proper use Of the Fifth Amend
ment has been handed down by
the Supreme Court.
In a unanimous decision. the
court yesterday ruled that a labor
union official has the legal right
to invoke Fifth Amendment pro-
lection against self-incrimination
in refusing to disclose the where
abouts of his organizations
records.
Although the court handed
down nine written opinions yes
terday. it still has almost 30
argued cases awaiting decision
or other disposition before the
current term ends. The court
announced yesterday that it will
meet again next Monday and in
Dictated that adjournment will
not come until June "a at the
earliest.
Might Apply to Firms
The unanimous opinion bear
ing on use of the Fifth Amend
ment apparently could apply
substantially in similar cases of
official "custodians" of such
material of business corpora
tions as we'll as labor unions.
However. the court. through
Justice Burton. drew sharp dis
tinction between the refusal OF
a witness to reveal the where
aboutS of his organizations rec
ords and his refusal to produce
such records on proper demand
of court or governmental in
vestigating body. 1t was made
clear that in the latter case, the
witness could be punished for
contempt.
Reverses Conviction
This ruling reversed a con-
tempt Of court conviction and
six-month Jail sentence of Jo-
seph Curcio of New York. secre-
tary- treasurer of a Transfers
Union local. He used the Fifth
Amendment in refusing to tell
the whereabouts of his locals

Congress. or any other branch
OF the Government, which is free
Of the restraints of the Constitu-
ton"
In their dissent. Justices Clark
and Burton observed that the
holding ran counter to past opin-
ions of the court.
I'm substitute thereof it en-
tiers no opinion whatever for the
court. 1t is unable to muster a
majority. Instead. there are
handed down three opinions. But
worst Of all. it gives no authori-
tative guidance as to what, il
anything. the Executive or the
Congress may do to remedy the
distressing situation in which
they now find themselves -
the dissent said in part.

the Supreme Court finally yes
terday ordered a new hearing
for him. He contended that a
transcript Of his 1948 trial. pre-
pared by another after the
court reporter who took the
notes died. were incomplete and
|prejudicial.
And Chessman wrote another
book two years ago, Trial BY
Ordeal" which caused critics

crime by living seven years in

But, as for the Curcio case,

forcing a custodian to testify as
to the whereabouts of non-pro-
duced records requires him to
disclose the contents of his own
mind" This, Justice Burton de-
clared. is contrary to the spirit
and letter Of the Fifth Amend

Smith is serving a life-sentence
at the Anderson CIV. Va
women'S reformatory for the
1852 knife-slaying of her Officer
husband in Tokyo.
In the same ruling. the court
upheld the action Of Federal
Judge Edward A. Tamm in U. S.
District Court here. Judge Tamm
had set aside the court martial
conviction and life sentence of
Mrs. Clarice B. Covert in the
ax-slaying Of her husband, an
Air Force sergeant. in England.
Reverses 1856 Decision
The holding reversed q SIS
ruling Of the court in the same
cases last year.
Since crimes are subject to
trial in the area in which they
occurred and since the United
States does not maintain civil
courts in either England or
Japan, 1t was apparent that the
women cannot be tried again.
-Four Of the justices Yesterday
hatly held that military trial of
dependents would violate the
constitutional safeguards Of in
dictment and trial by jury. These
were Justice Black. who deliv-
cred the opinion, and Chief Jus
tice Warren and Justices Doug
las and Brennan.
Justices Frankfurter and Har-
Ian concurred in the result Of
the holding but limited their
concurrence to dependents in
volved in cases that might call
for the death penalty on con-
viction. Justices Clark and
Burton diSsented from views of
the others.
Tried Under Military Code
The women had been court
martialed under a provision Of
the Uniform Code Of Military
Justice which authorizes such
military trials for civilians &C
companying the armed forces.
The code was passed by Con-
eress under the constitutional
power it possesses TO make rules
for the Government and regula-
ton of the land and naval
forces"
OF this. the holding delivered
by Justice Black declared: The
term land and naval forces re-
fers to persons who are members
of the armed services and not to
their civilian wives +. and other
dependents.
The opinion recognized that
there may be circumstances in
which one might be lin" the
armed forces without having
been indicted and without wear
ing a uniform. but it held that
dependents are not in this
category.
I'VE reject the idea that when
the United States acts against
citizens abroad, it can do so free
Of the Bill Of Rights" the opin-
lon announced by Justice Black
asserted.
Answers U. s. Argument
1t cited a Government conten-
ton that even though a court
martial does not provide all con-
stitutional projections, such trials
for dependents accompanying
the armed forces can be defend
ed as stemming from legislation
necessary and proper" to carry
out the United States obligations
under the international agree
ments made with these countries.
OF this the ruling said:
"The obvious and decisive an
swer TO this. Of course, is that
no agreement with a foreign ma
ton can confer power on the

advisable for Mr.. Eisenhower

House Republican Leader
Martin said that. on the con-
trary. the congressional leaders
were encouraged to ind Mr..
Eisenhower so active and ebert.
But Mr.. Martin does not
think the President should go

the President could conserve
bis strength and still be in
constant touch with Vice Pres
ident Nixon in Paris by tele-
phone.
More Time for Decisions
In fact. the House leader
thought there might be some
advantages in this arrange
ment. because it would give the
President more time to weigh
the various proposals presented
at the Paris meetings than il
he were on the scene.

that the men who direct Demo-

II is difficult to see what the

Thus. II Mr.. Nixon became

Are The Arabs Unified?
By SAUL CARSON

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y.-AS tn1S column
goes to press of paper float atop streams of
tears shed the sad plight of the Arab refugees
in camps in Syria and Gaza in Lebanon and Jordan.
Every Arab delegation here has wrung the last
drop of pity out of the lot of refugees drained
the last drop of vriol out of the barrels of Israeli
hatred with which the Arab spokesmen are always
we'll equipped. There not dissent among the
Arab spokesmen this issue. Is that attitude then
not proof of the great unity that exists among the
Arabs?
The answer is: No, it is not.
Anti-Israelsm is is merely a cover for sharp
divsveness inside the Arab camp. it is true among
in general that patriotism is the last refuge of
scroundel 1T is doubly true that among the Arabs
antiIsraelism is the final resort of not merely the
potroon but also of the assassin and the murderer.
For under the guse of antiIsraeism, the Arabs are
right sharpening their weapons against one an
other.
THE DAILY NEWSPAPERS carry dispatches
regularly about Egypts campaign of hatred directed
against King Hussein of Jordan. The same reports
bring us view of sharp hostility between Syria and
Lebanon In the shadows, stands King Saud of Saudi
Arabia. Over all hangs the spectre of death.
Broad hints are stated boldly. The world-and
Hussein-are reminded that Jordan'S King Abdullah
was assassinated because he was suspected of deal
ing with Israel in the direction of possible peace.
The mobs, which have always been an instrument
easily manipulated in the Arab capitals are being in
famed-not against Israel, but against Hussein and
against anyone else who refuses to go along with
the politics of Egypt and Syria.
There was an interesting Illustration the other
day. of the way Cairo employs the technique OF the
Big Lie to nfame Arab opinion against Hussein.
The Carlo radio broadcast a report that the Jor
danian finance minister had "just returned from
Israel" to his capital of Amman
The Jordanan Cabinet member, it was alleged,
had come to Israel in the company of United States
Secretary of Agriculture Benson; that was way OF
killing two birds with you-know-what; for that
proved the fact that behind all this "prO-ISrael
ism" stands the power of the American Government
1T is TRUE that Benson did visit Israel; no
secret was made of that fact In fact, when Benson
arrived in Israel, he greeted by host of news
papermen-includng Eliahu Salpeter, the Jewish
Telegraphic Agencys chief correspondent in Israel
All the newspapermen saw Benson come into Jeru-
salem via the Mandelbaum Gate Not one saw any
Jordanian, let alone Jordanian Minister, come in
with Benson
But what do facts matter? When Abdulah was
killed. antiIsraeism the excuse just as it is now

But when you work at something you develop
