at Plymouth Meeting, Pa, who
had been sentenced to 100 days
in jail for contempt of Con-
greSs.
She was convicted for refus-
ing to answer questions put to
her in 1855 by the former In
diana Republican, Senator VIII
liam Jenner. Her case was ar
gued before the Court of Ap-
peals today.
The Supreme Court has made
clear that congressional COM
mittees must have a legitimate
legislative purpose in their in
vestigations to warrant charg-
ing witnesses with contempt
when they refuse to answer
questions.
Judge Warren E, Burger to-
dsy wondered if Senator who
sought publicity and votes
through an investigation would
not ''taint or destroy" a Iegiti-
mate legislative purpose.
Broad Power Claimed
Assistant United States At
torney William Hitz answered
that the courts could not ques-
zion the motives of the legis-
lative investigators. Senator
Jenner had a broad power to
investigate subversion in gen.
eral. he said.
"A little bit Of legislative
purpose is all you need" Mr..
Hitz said.
Mrs. Knowles was dismissed
from her job as librarian in
Norwood, Mass. in 1883 after
she took the Fifth Amendment
when asked by members of the
Senate Internal Security Sub
committee about any Commu-
mist afflliations she may have
had. She was hired by the
Quakers as librarian in Plym-
outh Meeting, a Philadelphia
suburb. later the same year.
She had told the Quakers that
she had had no Communist
Party connections since 1947.
Her appointment raised To-
cal controversy, including de-
mands that she be discharged,
which the Quakers refused
to do.
$4,000 Award to Quakers
The Fund for the Republic
made a $4,000 award to the
Quakers in 1885 for "coura-
geous and effective defense of
democratic principles" in re-
tanning Mrs. Knowles.
Inc senate subcommittee re-
called Mrs. Knowles the same
year, and she was subsequently
charged with contempt for re-
fusing to answer So questions.
