eral cases pending before the

There was no immediate
comment from Mr.. Adams. He
has declined to comment on
other charges DR.. Schwartz has

The subcommittee fired DR..
Schwartz as its chief counsel
last February 10 after a dis
pute over his handling Of the
investigation. He in turn
charged that some members
were seeking to turn the probe
into a whitewash.
DR.. Schwartz has charged
that Mr. Adams may have

Civil Aeronautics Board on
behalf of a client of Attorney
Murray Chotiner, a one-time
campaign manager for Vice
President Nixon. DR.. Schwartz
said Mr.. Adams contacted
Harmar D. Denny, then a
CAB member, about the case
but Mr.. Denny has denied this.
There are other cases." DR.,
Schwartz said under question
ing yesterday, but they are

Nasser Gives
" Interview

NEW YORK. April 7 R.-
President Canal Abdel Nasser
predicted complete democracy
for the new United Arab Re-
public in a filmed interview
broadcast by CBS-Tv yesterday
He lectured the republic would
not accept any sort Of domina-
ton.
The leader Of the U.A.R.,
which links Egypt and Syria.
was questioned by Frank
Kearns of the CHS news staff.
President Nasser identified
himself and his advisers as. Ma
tionalists. He said the republic
does not have complete de-
mocracy today because this
would give the nation three d.
vergent political parties.
zone party will ask to be in
agreement or in alliance with
the West" he said. "Of course,
those will be the reactionary
people and the Federalists.
Another party will have adopted
the policy Of on-alignment
and neutrality and this will COL
lect the Nationalist. The third
party will ask for alliance with
the Soviet Union, with the East.
and those will be the Commu-
nists.
1.-The country is not yet ready
today to come to such a con-
fiict.
After having freed Egyp-
tians by liquidating the feudal-
lists. by putting an end to the
of the landlords, I
think we'll be able to come to
a democratic system step by
step"
Asked why Egypt accepted
offers OF aid by the Soviet
Union, President Nasser said.
1t was an action to defend
ourselves against economic
against starvation"
He acknowledged the aid is
slow in coming.
After the naturalization of
the Suez Canal. our money was
frozen in Britain and the
tUnited) States. We were with
out foreign currency and we
tried to escape from the pres
sures of the big powers. Russia
helped us. And we tried to sell
our cotton crop. which is our
main crop. There was a block
ade against us. Russia helped
u.s."
President Nasser called 1t
hostile action for the United
States to freeze its currency
and refuse to supply wheat and
medicine following the Suez
naturalization.

Senator Nicely

The death Of Senator Matthew M.
Nicely at IS ended long career Of ded-
icated and energetic service to his coun-
try, to his native State and, as District
Committee member, to Washington.
