ference on some financial rec
ords Mr.. Goldflne had brought
back from Boston, presumably
about the uncashed checks.
But that news conference never
took place.
Instead, Mr.. Goldfine's aides
slid a coat hanger under the
locked door Of the adjoining
room and yanked in a small
gray microphone with a tail OF
electric cord several feet long
Reporters said the device was
the size Of q tiny mouse.
Goldflne forces were unable
to obtain an answer when they
pounded on the door or to
convince a policeman and the
hotel management that Il
ought to be forced open
Finally, IS minutes later, the
locked suite was opened to
newsmen and photographers
Inside were Mr.. Shacklette and
Mr.. Anderson.
ShackIette Explains
The short, heavy-set Mr.
Shacklette began talking in
measured tones.
"We have information that
| subcommittee members tele-
phones we're tapped" he said
II was given the assignment tc
see whether this was true. We
had sufiicient information tc
lead me to believe that there
was an organized effort tC
dredge up everything possible
on committee members.
"Mr. Anderson had some in
formation which made it ap.
pear that we might find out
who had paid for these private
investigators. The trail led
from the Statler Hotel (acroSs
the street from the Sheraton
Carlton) to this hotel. We were
attempting to find out who ir
this hotel was responsible.
"Mr. Harris did not author.
ize any particular type of inves-
tigation. He did not authorize
technical surveillance. Mr.. An.
derson registered in this room
and I took advantage of his
hospitality"
Mr.. Goldflne. reused from
sleep, denounced the micro
phone maneuver as worse thar
Russia and worse than the Ges.
tapo."
Representative Harris, also
aroused by reporters, recalled
he had heard rumors last week
that his own telephone was be-
ing tapped. He said he told Mr.
Shacklette to "see what he
could find out" But he said he
did not authorize Mr.. Shack
lette to use any tapping OF
microphone equipment.
Mr.. Shacklette admitted to
newsmen that he used my hi
fl set" in an effort to determine
what was going on last night
in the hotel room Of Mr.. Lotto
AS reconstructed by Goldfine
aides, the microphone was
spotted about IL pm. on the
other side of the locked door
between Mr.. Lotto's suite, 800
and the adjoining room, BOG.
Gap Under Door
Mr.. Robb explained he was
'Just checking around" when
he noticed that the door was
slightly above the floor line
He said he saw moving feet and
then a pair Of hands and what
appeared to be someone looking
through from the dark room.
Mr.. Robb, Mr.. Lotto, Phi
Brennan, an assistant to Mr.
Lotto. and Lloyd B. Furr, a for
mer Washington policeman
found that q microphone was
being used on the other side OF
the door. Mr.. Robb said Mr.
FUR was employed last week to
check on possible eavesdrop-
ping attempts. Mr.. Furr said
he used an electrical detector
to confirm the presence Of the
microphone.

German Vote
Is Triumph
For Adenauer

DUEssELDORF. Germany.
July z lH9eAn election victory
for Chancellor Konrad Ade-
nauer's Christian Democrats In
West 0ermany's largest state
was seen today as an indorse-
ment Of his plans to provide
the nations new army with
atomic weapons.
The Christian Democrats re-
gained control Of the provincial
parliament Of North Rhine
Westphalia yesterday in the
first popular test Of the nuclear
armament program. It has be-
come West Germany's hottest
political issue since Mr.. Ade-
nauer's party won the national
elections again almost 10
months ago.
Only the provincial admins
tration Of this big industrial
and agricultural state was at
stake, but the opposition So
cialists keyed their campaign
to Mr.. Adenauer's plans to ac-
cept the Atlantic allies offer
Of nuclear arms.
Socialist Fear A-War
The Socialists claimed atomic
armament would put West Ger
many so squarely in the West
ern camp that all hope Of re-
uniting with Communist East
Germany by negotiations would
be lost. They raised the spec
ter Of atomic warfare, while
the Christian Democrats played
on fears Of communism and
hammered home their theme of
postwar prosperity.
The Christian Democrats
moved from minority position
of SO seats in the 200-member
provincial parliament to firm
control with 104 seats. The
Socialists advanced, but not as
far, from rs to 81 seats.
Mr.. Adenauer's party actually
lost S per cent Of the popular
vote from its high point in the
State In last September's gen.
eral elections. The Socialists
gained almost 6 per cent from
last years low Of 3S.5 per cent.
The Christian Democrats polled
sos per cent.
The principal, loser was the
Free Democrat Party, which
dropped from q seats to Is.
The Free Democrats Joined with
the Christian Democrats in a
coalition government in 1854
but suddenly switched two years
ago and allowed the Socialists
to take over.
Two splinter groups, the neo-
Nazi German Reich Party and
the Catholic Center Party, lost
their seats entirely by polling
less than five 5 per cent of the
popular vote. The Communists
have been outlawed for two
years.
Ideal Ttesting Place
This was the popular vote
with percentages Of the vote
in the 1854 State election in
parentheses):
Christian Democrats 4,0Il,-
122 or sos per cent (41.3 per
cent in 1954): Socialists 3,ll5,.

Democrats 556,274 or II per

Party 125,044;; the German
Reich Party 1880; and the
German Uniont176.

Not Soothing Spectacle
The glimpse Of modern war
that one gets at NATO's COM
bat operations center is not q
particularly soothing or pleas
ant one.
The impression is Of a war
almost totally divorced from its
human meaning. fought be-
tween IBM machines, presided
over by a general staff Of honor
graduates from the Massachu-
Esetts Institute Of Technology.
Here In this subterranean
cavern, one has the feeling that
once the button is pushed, the
whole thing will happen with
|r elentless. predetermined,
mathematical certainty. And
though this command post, for
all its defenses. might be
DESTROYED, that contingency.
too. has been provided for in
the calculations.
Perhaps what it more rea-
sonably represents, on the
other hand. is the high point of
military effectiveness and re-
flnement that NATO, after six
years of effort, has been able
to produce. Here in the heart
of Central Europe is NATO's
Sunday punch-the most mod
ern atomic strike forces. the
fastest intercepters, the most
finely trained and co-ordinated
weapon in Western Europe.
Paradox Noted
It represents also q tremen-
dous difference from what
existed q few years ago, and
still exists today In other parts
Of NATO. The simple truth is
that except for the presence of
American air strenth, much of
NATO today is still in the
horse and buggy stage of its
military development, flying
planes which cannot reach the
altitude Of modern Russian
bombers and using techniqueS
which were old hat before the
end of World War II.
But the picture somewhere
in Germany" is impressive. It
is also undoubtedly effective to-
day as an important element in
deterring Russia from any
adventurous military ex-
perimentS in the area.
The question is whether this
weapon. fine as it is, has today |
more than a temporary signifi-
canoe in the overall balance Of |
military power. At the dawn of |
the missile age, NATOs leaders
are already looking for new ex-
plantations of their own mission. |
And since NATO remains pri.
marily a military alliance, its
own future depends very largely
on finding the right answer.

Use of the hidden micro

said he was using the micro
phone in an effort to chase
down rumors that telephones

being tapped.
Jack Anderson, an assistant
to Columnist Drew Pearson,
was with Mr.. Shacklette in

admitted after discovery of the

Mr.. Lotto told reporters later
that the Federal Bureau of In

He said Mr.. Goldflne's law

there is no violation Of Federal

Communications Act makes it
a crime to intercept . tele-

Furnace Mills what is today Catoctin
Furnace Nd Two horses pulled the heavily laden
to their destination.
After completion of the Seven-span aqueduct
which is today considered masonry master
piece, the railroad allowed to disntegrate. 1t
is said that its rails helped furnish firewOod for the
people who lived along its rightOf-way.
Looking further into railroads. it is gener-
ally acceptable fact that the Baltimore & Ohio
Railroad was the pioneer steel railroad of the
world. The Metropolitan Branch was first
chartered at the close of the Civil War in 1865,
and put in operation in 1873. Originally it ran
from Georgetown, ID. c.. to Hagerstown via Fred
erick. Historians claim that it was necessary to
survey $40 miles Of land for its building while
the entire distance (as the fles) from
Georgetown to Hagerstown is only IS miles. This
railroad cost So, 465 900.
To those of you who like to reminisce about
the early days of Montgomery County, would
like to recommend this: visit the Monocacy aque
duct. Take a stand about the middle of it. Up
stream is the almost unbelievably high BIO rail-
road bridge--in the far distance on clear day is
Sugarloafs highest point.

me to believe that the native Indian was truly

when the builders learned to their dismay that
there was native stone available at this par
ticular spot for the carefully planned seven-span
aqueduct which would be necessary to carry the
canals water over the 200foot wide Monocacy
River. The nearest stone quarry was away off in
the northwest at the Sugarloaf Mountain, dis
lance of over five miles as the crow flies.
The question was: how were they to get the
stone?

The log was known as string piece" 1t was
put down with one of its flat surfaces parallel
with the surface of the ground. No ties were
used, the rails were ballasted and tamped with
blast rock. No abortive attempt was made to
