Senate Investigators Threaten
Perjury Charge Against Witness

WASHINGTON (API - Har
vey Matusow left a Senate wit
ness aland amid multiplying
threats of prosecution Tuesday
after reeling off a new list of
persons he said he knew to have
been Communists.
The dark-haired, dark-eyed Ma
tusow, who says he has given a
.host of false testimony along
that line in the past, was excused
temporarily by a Senate internal
security subcommittee so he can
appear before a federal grand
jury in New York Wednesday.
Perjury — It’
But before Matusow left the
stand Senate investigators made
it plain they intend to see him
Jailed for perjury if they possibly
can.
Matusow retorted he will fight
any such charge unless the gov
ernment also prosecutes other
ex-Communists for giving what
lie called false testimony. He
named in that category Elizabeth
Bentley, Ixiuis Budenz, Manning
Johnson and Paul Crouch.
Matusow said lawyers have
told him the government will
have a hard time prosecuting
him unless it can establish which
of his various conflicting state
ments are false.
Lost Confidence
He lost some of his air of con
fidence as the day proceeded,
however, with these other threats
of-prosecution arising:
1. Subcommittee counsel Jay
Sourwine advised Matusow to
seek legal advice about the pan
alties for giving false information
to the FBI — something Matusow
admits having done. "You might
ask them (your lawyers) about
it — you’d be interested,” Sour
wine said.
2. Sen. Hennings (D-Mo) told
Matusow that Montana authori
ties want to bring lnm back

Women s Elections Termed
Democracy in Miniature'
By Mo 11U* Monroe
Emerald Reporter
Election procedures for Asso
ciated Women Students, Wom
en's Recreation Association and
Y.W.C.A. are miniatures of larg
er-scale democratic procedures.
The AWS, for example, fills its
slate In accordance with long
established tradition. Petitions
are called for and each prospec
tive cabinet member is inter
viewed by seniors members of
the present cabinet with some in
terviews conducted by other of
ficers.
The group’s executive council,
which includes the presidents of
all women's organizations on
campus, then discusses the pe
titions and makes recommenda
tions.
Narrowed to Two
The field is then narrowed to
two women whose names will
appear on the ballot. Final choice
in officers is up to all University
women in the genera! election.
First vice-president is the candi
date not elected president.
Similar methods are used by
the YWCA, with women invited
to petition for both elective and
appointive ofices. The more re
sponsible offices provide for in
terviews for candidates, held by
the YW president, vice-president
and adviser, Eileen Lindblad.
Sophomore cabinet positions
are interviewed by the cabinet's
president and vice-president. Two
women are then considered for
each spot, with the loser of the
presidency in the final e lection to
become vice-president.
Only women who are YW
members may petition or vote in
this election.
