Struve Hensel, assistant secre-
tary of defense, demanded the
group unanimously "dismiss the
charges against me . . . with a
severe rebuke to Sen. McCarthy."
Hensel started out as one of
the principals accused by Mc
Carthy and his aides of trying to
use Pvt. G. David Schine as e
"hostage" to sidetrack a subcom
mittee probe of alleged Reds in
the Army. The charges named
Secretary of the Army Stevens
and Army Counselor John G
Adams, with Hensel listed as
mastermind of the accusations
brought by the Army side
against McCarthy.
The Army accused McCarthy,
subcommittee counsel Roy M.
Cohn and Francis P. Carr, sub
committee chief of staff, of hav
ing sought by improper means to
win favored Army treatment for
Schine a former subcommittee
aide.
PARTY-LINE VOTE
Midway in the hearings the
senators on a straight party-line
vote, 4-3, dismissed Hensel and
Carr as principals without ex
pressing formal findings as to the
charges against them.
Hensel Sunday submitted a
sworn affidavit for the subcom
tee record saying McCarthy ad
mitted he had no factual basis
for the charges against him.
Furthermore, Hensel said, Mc
Carthy once offered in a conver
sation with him to withdraw
the charges if this could be done
without making the senator ap
pear to the public as a "dam
fool."
McCarthy left last weekend for
a weeks vacation at an unan
nounced spot and could not be
reached for comment. He has not
publicly retracted his accusa
tions against Hensel. In sub
stance, these are that Hensel
guided the Army charges against
McCarthy in the hope of warding
off a McCarthy investigation of
whether Hensel, while a Navy
official in World War II, im
properly profited through his
financial interest in a private
firm.
quotes McCarthy
The affidavit repeated in detail
Hensel's earlier denials of any
wrongdoing, and went on to
quote a McCarthy statement in a
closed subcommittee session as
part of what it claimed was proof
the senator had no basis for his
charges. The transcript quoted
McCarthy as saying:
'I read that Struve Hensel was
the man who drafted the charges.
go back and I check my file
and I find we had been investi
gating Struve Hensel in a minor
fashion since last December. I
add two and two and I assume
that is the motive. I put that in
my charges.
Hensel said this showed Mc
Carthy "added two and two to
gether and did not care whether
he got four, five, seven or eight.

Firemen Check
5,273 Homes
In Safety Tour
More than 5,273 Eugene homes
have been checked so far in the
fire department's current home
safety inspection tour. Fire de
partment officials said Monday
that this is approximately two
thirds of all homes in Eugene.
Crews were busy early Monday
morning making house-to house
calls throughout the remainder of
the city.
The inspection lour is made to
acquaint residents with fire
hazards. The firemen simply tell
occupants of some of the hazard
ous conditions spotted on the
home tour.
Occupants are not required to
let the firemen inspect the homes.
In the last report, firemen were
refused admittance to a total of
221 homes in the city. That's
since the program began on June
1.
One of the worst offenses found
so far, according to fire officials,
is the use of "extension cord wir
ing." Fire Marshal Lester Bark
er said there were 291 cases of
such wiring. There have also
been 784 cases of overfusing a
companion hazard with the ex
tension cord wiring, he said.

Youth Draws
Term in Jail
A 22-year-old Eugene motorist
was fined $145 and sentenced to
10 days in jail Monday after
pleading guilty in District Court
to reckless driving.
The motorist, Harold D. Hays,
446 E. 12th Ave., was arrested
by Lane County Sheriff's depu
ties after Hays' vehicle failed to
make a turn onto Bertelsen Rd.
and ran into a house occupied
by Kenneth E. Bowser. The house
was heavily damaged, deputies
said.
In court Monday, Hays told
Disrict Judge Chester N. Anderson:
"I believe I fell asleep at the
wheel."
A sheriff's deputy told the
court, however, that skid marks
measured 195 feet and that alco
holic beverages were found in
the car.
In another case, Billy Jo
Thompson, 21, Veneta, was sen
tenced to 30 days in jail after
pleading guilty to being drunk
on a public highway.
Donald C. Walker, 25, 825 D
St., Springfield, was arraigned on
a charge of larceny by bailee.
Anderson set bail of $500 and
scheduled a preliminary hearing
for Tuesday at 2:45 p.m.
Groups to Attempt
To Reach Agreement
The Eugene City Council and
the citizens committee of the
Bethel Water District will hold
another meeting at the Bethel
Fire Station Monday night at 8
p. m. in an attempt to resolve
differences of opinion on annexa
tion versus incorporation of the
water district.
This will be a continuation of
a meeting started last Thursday
night. Both groups made state
ments and gave background of
the issue between the two, but
took no action in the attempt to
get together.
The Bethel committee has been
defending petitions now in the
hands of the county board of
commissioners calling for forma
tion of Bethel City northwest of
Eugene. The commissioners have
Been delaying a boundary deci
sion until all sides are studied.
Eugene councilmen have been
fighting for further delay in an
effort to inform the citizens of
the Bethel-Danebo district on all
aspects of annexation to Eugene.
Members of the county board
said Monday that they will prob
ably delay the boundary decision
again, after conclusion of a pub
lic meeting slated for Tuesday at
10 a. m. They said the Lane
County district attorney has told
them the decision could be held
back to permit further study of
new petitions for boundary
changes.
Meanwhile, City Councilman
Ray Siegenthaler Monday was
preparing a question and answer
form for distribution to Bethel
citizens. The sheet explains the
city council s side of the issue,
with answers to questions the
Bethel people migh't ask about
annexation to Eugene.
