the worldwide operations Of the
Department of State. Additional
!. savings in such widely varied ac-
tivities may well be found by the
; executive branch and Congress
But q multi-billion dollar re.
duction as evidently envisaged
by the House Resolution would
destroy or cripple many essential
programs II concentrated in this
limited area OF the budget.
Defense Ruled Out
This. 1t is clear that q Sub
stantial reduction" In Federal
expenditures next fiscal year In
keeping with House Resolution
100. whether in any one or a
combination Of these major seq
lments Of the budget. would
weaken the Nations defenses,
or cuthack or eliminate programs
now required by law or pro-
1posed in the public interest, or
both. That forces the conclu-
sion that a multi billion dollar
reduction in 1858 expenditures
can be accomplished only at the
expense Of the national safety
and interest.
Turning now to requests for
new spending authority. as dis
Itinguished from actual expendi-
lures. we find a more promising
outlook. Budgetary reviews
since last January have dis
closed the feasibility OF postpon-
ing certain of these requests
without serious damage to pro-
gram levels. A number of the
following actions. which COM
mend to the House. I have al
ready suggested:
First. that new spending au-
Ithority for the military assist
iance portion OF the Mutual
Security Program be reduced
by $500 million. This reduction
results mainly from new man.,
agement techniques through
which leadtime financing has
been reduced tnotably for spare
parts. maintenance support not
justified by the rate Of con-
sumption Of our allies has been
eliminated. and items have been
removed from grant aid which
countries can now pay for them
selves. If the funds previously
appropriated are continued avail
able. this reduction will not
impair the operation Of military
forces Of other countries at mu-
tually agreed levels.
Less Ugrent Projects
Second. that. by delaying less
urgent projects. new spending
authority for military public
works be reduced by 5000 million.
Third. that resulting from new
projections Of its operating rate
and related financial REQUIRE
ments. the new spending au-
thority for the Soil Bank
Program be reduced by 1854
million.
Fourth. that the investment
OF the Federal National Mort !
gage Association in special as
sistance functions be reduced
from $3.50 million to 5000 million. /
a reduction in new spending /
authority OF $50 million.
Fifth. that the college housing
authorization be reduced from |
SITS million to $3.50 million. a /
reduction in new spending au- /
thority Of SIS million. /,
Sixth. that resulting from
adjustments of construction
schedules. the new spending
authority of the Corps of En-
gineers be reduced by $l3 million. 4

ant had in fact willfully dis
obeyed a specific provision Of
the decree"
A dissent was expressed in a
memorandum Mr.. Rogers sent
to Senator O'Mahoney. The
statement. prepared by Acting
Assistant Attorney General
Robert A. Bicks of the Anti
trust Division, commended:
civil contempt simply gives
the defendant. on pain of pun
ishment, another chance to
comply with the courts order.
Criminal contempt, in sharp
contrast, is the effective deter
rent against noncompliance.
The jury trial requirement
would, in practical effect. al-
most force the Government to
prove anew the very antitrust
violation the courts decree
sought to remedy.
Contempt may largely turn
on the intent and meaning Of
that judgment which the court.
along with the parties, fash
toned. From this it follows that
a decision on the contempt
question may require intimate
knowledge of the very facts
and issues involved in the
original antitrust action. In
deed, were a jury to decide
criminal contempt issues, major
portions of the evidence in any
original antitrust litigation
might we'll have to be intro
duced for a second time"

antitrust laws would be weak
ened by the jury trial amend
ment. If only because such
cases would be much too
complicated for a jury to
handle.
Spokesman for the Justice
Department" he said, "have
not told newspapermen that of
the nine contempt actions this
administration has brought
since 1858. seven were based
upon consent DEGREES and only
two were brought upon litigated
judgments. No lawyer in or out
of the Justice Department, who
is at all familiar with the anti
trust law and prosecution in
criminal contempt cases can
for a moment pretend that
presentation of the contempt
issue would involve completely
I'm such a case the only issue
would be whether the court had
handed down a decree or made
an order Of any kind and
whether the defendant had vio-
lated the order :. A contempt
case begins with the order and
not with the facts that precede
the order. Therefore. when a
jury is brought into the case il
is not necessary for the men,
bers thereof to understand OF
to decide any of the complex
tiles involved in the original
issue. The court would hand
to the jury the simple question
as to whether or not q defend

earlier this week by newsmen
to the Justice Department.
Promising that the explicit
information concerning the
antitrust laws and various Fed
eral agency regulatory laws will
be prepared as promptly as
possible, Mr.. Rogers conceded
that the number Of criminal
contempt cases resulting from
injunction cases to which the
United States is a party ha.
been very small.
8 Contempt Cases
The Wyoming Senator sale
yesterday that the department
has brought only nine con
tempt cases in antitrust suit
since 1853 and that six of then
were cases of criminal con
tempt. He disclosed that sever
of the nine were based upol
consent judgments.
He added that a detailed
breakdown undoubtedly woult
show only a handful of Grim
inal contempt cases brough
under other statutes. Durinl
the fiscal year that ended las
June 80. for instance, onl!
about 40 criminal contemp
cases of all kinds except con
tempt of Congress were fllet

AS chairman OF the Senate

on charges that enforcement OF

He said that in such an in
stance. or in the case of State
officials who might defy q stay
order and execute a prisoner,
the officials could be considered
as officers of the court and thus
punished for contempt without
a jury trial.
Little Likelihood
He and other supporters OF
the jury trial amendment said
that as a practical matter they
saw little likelihood that a con-
tempt case involving the Gov
eminent would ever reach the
Supreme Court or appeals court
in a form that would necessi-
tate a jury trial. They OBJ.

The Wyoming Senator said
the Supreme Court not only
had ample authority to enforce
its DEGREES without a jury, but
also could continue to obtain
whatever testimony it needed
through appointment of COM
missioners or special masters.
He took issue with a memo
randum sent to Senate Repub-
lican Leader Knowland yester-
day by Acting Attorney General
William P. Rogers warning that
the amendment might force the
Supreme Court and appellate
courts to hold jury trials. He
mentioned in particular the
departments citation Of a 1906
case in which the Supreme
Court stayed the execution Of

number Of criminal contempt
cases brought by the United
States is of little weight IN
showing the importance Of the
remedy in the enforcement OF
the law. He declared that
the present statutes allowing
judges, without juries, to hold
persons in contempt not only
is speedy and effective but also
is a deterrent that keeps fur
Their violations at a minimum
If this remedy which has
been a traditional part Of the
administration of justice in oul
country is weakened" Mr.. Rog-
ers wrote, defiance of the or
ders of the court will greatly
increase.
This was disputed by Sena-
tor O'Mahoney as well as by
several other Senators.
They hold that Federal court
orders are almost universally
enforced by civil contempt pen
alties that are just as effective
If not more SO, than criminal
contempt punishments."
Democratic Senators Pastort
of Rhode Island and Russell Of
Georgia also agreed with Sen
ator OMahoney that a person
who refused to comply with g
court order could not by way
of subterfuge change the situa.
ton from civil contempt tt
criminal contempt"
Expanding on that point
Senator O'Mahoney told re-
porters:

Other Senators, including
Democratic Leader johnson,
indicated they had no fear that
enforcement of Federal statutes
such as the antitrust laws or
of various Government agency
regulatory orders would be in
convenienced. much less begged
down, in the higher courts.
They noted that criminal
contempt actions brought by
the Government have been very
rare in recent years. Senator

overall situation in Federal
courts, emphasized that Fed
