tude on the part of Kennedy

Presidents clearly stated con-
victions about the right to in
formation, which has had the
effect of preventing the growth
Of secrecy in day-to-day opera
tions."
Mr.. Bailey said the House In

by Representative Moss, Demo-
crat of California, had reported
that most of the information
problems left over from the
previous administration have
been solved under Mr.. Kennedy.
Taking up some of the Mil
Ter charges. Mr.. Bailey said
Mr.. Miller had mentioned that
news of Mr.. Kennedy's sore
back was suppressed for three
weeks and that this contraSted
with prompt reporting of for
mer President Eisenhower's ILL
neSSes.
The comparison is spuri-
GUS" Mr.. Bailey said. He said
the backache was not serious,
that Mr.. Kennedy did not even
tell his closest associates, and
continued:
In one case, a man chose to
do his work and bear the pain
in silence; in the other. the
future of the Nation was in

Government.
Under the Republican Eisen-
hover administration, Mr..
Bailey wrote, secrecy grew ra-
ther than diminished"
Mr.. Bailey'S article was in
response to Mr.. Miller's article
in the same magazine earlier
this month. Mr.. Miller had
written that the Kennedy ad-
ministration was guilty of CEN
sorship, favoritiSm and at
tempting to use reporters as
political propaganda conduitS. "
Mr.. Bailey wrote: Mr.. Mil
ler's mudballs. compounded of
half>truths, inaccuracies and
irrelevancies. missed the mark. ("
Mr.. Bailey said he considered
Mr.. Miller's charges propa-
ganda and nothing more. add
ing:
Those who would seek an &C
curate Judgment as to the per-
formance of Republicans and
Democrats should look to less
frivolous sources than the
charges of the Republican
chairman.
ANY unbiased review of the
record on freedom of informa-
ton over the last decade shows
one thing clearly:
1T is the Democratic Party
that has carried on the fight
for the right of the people to
know about their Government.
1t is the Republican Party that
has disdained this struggle :"
Mr.. Miller promptly chal-
lenged Mr.. Bailey to debate the
issue of the administrators
information policies before any
recognized journalistic group.
MY charge that the Democrats
are running a cenSor-huckster
operation at the highest Gov
ernment levels still stands he
said in a statement.
Mr.. Bailey said progress to-
ward greater freedom of in
formation in the Kennedy re-
gime has taken the following
forms:
Positive action on individual
problems, most Of them involv-
ing complaints against abuses
by the previous administration.
Major policy changes which

handing general, whose selEesteem and
popularity with the Army of the POto-

approval to goOd-size probing action

The move which today would be
called a reconnaissance in force

to savers" plan gives you two
months interest on the big bal
anceS-$999-and one months in
tereSt on the small balance-$499.
