Corsi Ouster Probe Subject Senator Promises Full Investigation WASHINGTON IW A Senate subcommittee will investigate the controversial ouster of Edward J. Corsi as a state Department ad viser on refugee problems. Chairman William Langer (R ND) of the Judiciary Subcom mittee on Refugees announced his gioup will conduct a "full, complete and far reaching" in quiry. He said that presumably Secretary of State John Foster Dulles, who dropped Corsi as a consultant will be called as a wit ness. Corsi, Italian-born former New York state industrial commission er, was named as Dulles' special assistant last Jan. 10 to help speed up the refugee relief pro gram to bring 214,000 refugees into the United States by the end of 1956. He was ousted last Sun day. Sen. Hubert Humphrey (D Minn) sent Dulles a letter charg ing that the Corsi case "rep resents another aberration in the administration of the security program." He said the State De partment had set the 90-day limit on sensitive temporary appoint ments like Cnrsi's under an in terpretation of an executive or der. Actually, Humphrey said, the executive order covering such matters refers only to a "limited period" for temporary appoint ments to sensitive jobs. During that time, security checks are to be made. Humphrey said the State De partment interpretation placing a 90-day limit on such tenure if the check is not completed makes Dulles "a prisoner of your own regulations which you have au thority to amend." Humphrey asked Dulles to sup ply him answers to various ques tions on the security aspect of the Corsi case. Win a Free Gift!
