Peters Ousted Wrongfully Under Loyalty Program, High Court Rules WASHINGTON W The Su preme Court held 7-2 Monday that Dr. John P. Peters was wrongfully fired under the government's now discarded loyalty program. But the tribunal refused to pass on' whether his constitutional rights were violated when Peter3 was de nied the right to face Ins accus ers. An affirmative answer to this question could have dealt a sharp blow to the present security pro gram instituted by the Eisenhow er administration. Peters, senior professor of medi cine at Yale University, was oust ed as a special consultant to the U.S. Public Health Service in May, 1953. The action came three months after the Lisenhower administra tion took office but before the old loyalty program was supplanted by one in which security rather than loyalty was the dominant fac tor. Under neither program, howev er, are accused employes permit ted to face their accusers. Chief Justice Warren delivered the high tribunal's opinion, hold ing that the procedure under which Peters was ousted wa invalid. Board Exceeded Rights Warren said the Civil Service Commission's Loyalty Review Board, which, made the finding against Petersj had no rtht to re open his case on its own motion. Two lower loyalty boards earlier had cleared Dr. Peters, but the top review board ordered the case reopened on its own motion and found that there was "a reason able doubt" to Peters' loyalty to the government. During the various hearings, Peters swore he had never been a member of the Communist Party and declared his loyalty to the United States. While Warren and. four of his colleagues said they did not feel the constitutional issue needed to be resolved at this time, Justices Douglas and Black disagreed, al though they voted with the ma jority. "Faceless Informers" Douglas said Peters was "con demned by faceless miormers, some of whom were not known even to the board that condemned him. Some of these informers were not even under oath; none of them had to submit to cross examination. None had to face Dr. Peters" Douglas added: "So far as we or the noard know they may be psychopaths or venal ways town iP W V flu6 A (.so Z eVsdLet- people. . . who revel in being in formers. They may bear oid grudg es. Under cross-examination their stories might disappear ' like bubbles. Their whispered confi dences might turn out to be yarns conceived by twisted minds or by people who, though sincere, have poor faculties of observation and memory." Liberty "Deprived" Douglas said confrontation and cross-examination under oalh are essential, "if the American ideal of due process is to remain a vital force in our public life.' He add ed: "We deal here with the reputa tion of men and their light to work things more precious than property itself. We have here a system where government with all its power and authority condemns a man to a suspeot class and the outer darkness, without the rudi ments of a fair trial. . . "It is an un-American practice which we should condemn. It de prives men of 'liberty' within the meaning of the Fifth Amendment . . . and potatoes are just one of the inviting fresh fruits and' vegetables featured this week in the Roduee Rrade atOafe All your money back on arty item, that doesn't please you' 1 -tM tip nriiiiftiiinrfrf"fi OREGON WOMAN KILLED SALINAS, Calif.

( Adlai Stevenson said Monday that what we need in this decisive cen tury are unpredictable "ornery" characters rather than "well-adjusted" personalities. He told 471 graduates at Smith College's 77th commencement we need more "idiosyncratic" people (that rugged frontier word 'or nery' occurs to me) those "who take open eyes and open n.inds out with them into the society which they will share and help to trans form." The 1952 Democratic presidential candidate who gave no hint of his future political plans said that since ' Western rationalism and Eastern spiritualism mot in Ath ens, collectivism in various forms has . collided with individualism time and again. And he added: "This 20th Century collision, this 'crisis' we are forever talking about, will be won 'at last not on the battlefield but in the nead and heart." Modern Dictators Busy Stevenson said modern dictators are reviving a very "ancient and! encrusted way of life. Hitler dis-1 covered it. The fascists knew it. j The Communists are busy brain- j washing all over Asia. And what: they are washing out is precisely i independence of judgment and the 1 moral courage with which to back,' such judgments. "And there are, alas, some lead ers in our country who certainlv have a brainwashing glint in their eyes when they meet w th an un familiar idea." 1 O.O.F.
