Tighter Check
On Manuals
PIedqe,d.bY.AF
By the Associated Press

The manual-haraSSed Air
Force, got high marks today
from one investigator for frank
ness, but another said he
doesn't see much prospect for
basic improvement.
A House Armed Services Sub
committee yesterday closed the
first phase of its inquiry into
the manuals which have re-
peatedly plunged the service
into hot water. -
The first item up was the
manual which implied Com
/ mist inf1ltration of the Ma
tional Council of Churches and
said some Protestant clergymen
had been identified with Com
munist- tinged causes.
Air Force Secretary Dudley
c. Sharp and Gen. Thomas D.
White. Chief of Staff, both said
they were taking a hand per-
sonally to prevent occurrences.
"Inexcusable," Sharp says
Gen. White said supervision
Of the manual producing proc
esS was patiently inadequate. "
Mr.. Sharp called it "inexcus-
able" Both said the Air Force
has put in new, tight proce-
dures. Mr.. Sharp said he'd read
every word Of the promised re-
vised manual himself.
Mr. Sharp also said the Air
Force wouldn't stop warning
its people against possibilities
of Communist inflltration-but
wouldn't lightly name names.
Subcommittee CHARM a n
Price, Democrat of Illinois, re-
marked today: you've got to
give them credit for a frank
and honest admission that they
goofed." He said the subcom-
mittee will reserve judgment
on Air Force plans for improve.
ment and meantime go on to
study other manuals.
But Representative Kowalski,
Democrat Of Connecticut, said
he sees no evidence the Air
Force is really changing its
organization to make sure man
uals won't get out without ade-
quate check and, supervision.
And I'm afraid what is true
Of manuals is true Of weapons,
missiles and everything else"
said Mr.. Kowalski, a retired
Army colonel. THE structure
needs to be revamped and |
don't see that they plan to re-
vamp it,"
The now-withdrawn security
manual found at least one de-
tenoer. Representative OKon-
ski, Republican of Wisconsin,
wanted to know where he could
buy a supply to send to con-
stituents. He said he was get
ting mail on the issue from
ministers-and that it was run
ming 80 in favor of the manual.
Mr.. O'KonSki produced what
ne said was an armed services
manual and read from its pas
sageS comparing collectivism
favcrably with capitalism. He
said it, rather than the Air
Force manual, should be in
vestigated. He said, this
manual had been given him
by "a high ranking officer"
Mr.. Price ordered a quick
check by the subcommittee
staff, which reported the book
had been withdrawn in 1916
after being used about 2ia
wears. ~ D

OuG regard TO CLe dual COM
pensation law. . 80 r.
The successful fight against
the provision was led by Air
Force Lodge 1892, American
Federation of Government EN-
ployes. "'-~
The employe group contended
that adoption of such a pro-
vision would curtail drastically
the promotion opportunities of
civilian employees in the defense
agencies. 1t also would result
in civilian employees losing their
present positions to military
personnel and being assigned
to less important jobs, the
House committee, was told.
The provision would have
authorized the Secretary of De-
Tense, at his discretion, to waive
the present $l0,000-a-year dual
compensation limitation on the
combined pension and salary
that a retired military officer
could draw.
H& So
VETERANS IN GOVERN
MENT-There are twice as
many veterans as non-veterans
among male employees in the
Government. Sixty-seven per
cent Of all male Federal en-
ployes are veterans, compared
to SO per cent who are nom
veterans.
Nine per cent of women
Federal employees are entitled
to veterans preference. The
overall percentage of all Gov
eminent workers-male and
female-who are veterans is 81
per cent.
These figures were disclosed
by Edward Bechtold, chief of
the Civil Service Commission
veterans service staff, in a talk
before national officers of Mr..
Bechtold noted that, barring
another war, the number of
veterans in Government has
reached its peak and will grad
ually decline from now on.
PAY-William Doherty, pres
ident Of the National Associa-
ton of Letter Carriers, will be
the first witness Tuesday when
the House Civil Service Com
mittee opens hearings on postal

Jackson sold the land in this
section of Holmes County to set
lers from Alabam, S. C.
and Virginia. When these set
tiers came to thiS section, they
soon organized what is now the
Franklin church, the only Pres

area of the county.
The exact date of the first
building is unknown, as is also
the date of the present building.
The first building was erected
soon after the first settlers be-
