Rep. Nixon Will Ask Further
Un-A merican Acfivifies Probe
By Glenn Murlz
(United I'reiM SUff Corrtmpondent)
Washington, Jan. 27 MPiRpp.
Richard M. Nixon, R., Calif., said
loday he will ask the house un
American activities committee to
reopen its investigation of the
Alger Hiss-Whittaker Chambers
spy case, . .
Nixon, the ranking GOP com
mitteeman who played a leading
role in gathering evidence in the
case, said he felt the committee
should pick up where it left off
when Hiss was indicted more than
a year ago.
In a speech on the house floor
yesterday, Nixon reviewed the
events leading up to Hiss' convic
tion of perjury. He said the
nation should "know the scope
and extent" of the infiltration of
communist espionage agents into
the state department so it can
guard against "any such situa
tion in the future."
Truman Assailed
Assailing both President Tru
roan and the late President Roose
velt for "failure to' act on evi
dence that the Russians tried to
steal A-bomb secrets," Nixon said
the Hiss case "should be compel
ling proof that the statute of lim
itations for espionage should be
extended to 10 years instead of
the present three."
He said the government's em
ploye loyalty program should
also be tightened up.
Nixon said Igor Cuzcnko, the
former code .clerk at the soviet
embassy in Canada who broke
the Canadian A-bomb case, once
testified that a soviet military at
tache claimed a Russian agent
"had been planted in the office
ol the u. b. secretary of state."
He said the information came
to the house committee in a
memorandum from IJ. S. intelli
gence dated Nov. 25, 1945. At that
time, the late Edward W. Stettin
ius Jr. was secretary of slate and
Hiss was a high-ranking official
in his department.
He said this information was
relayed at' the time to Mr. Tru
man, but nothing ever came of it.
Blame Assessed
"By treating communist infil
tration like any ordinary political
scandal," he said, "the adminls-.
tration officials responsible for
this failure to act against the
communist conspiracy rendered a
grave disservice to the people of
the nation."
Nixon also told the house that
the committee had in its posses
sion some eight pages of Cham
bers' "pumpkin" spy papers
which, he said, have been identi
fied as being in the handwriting
of the late Harry Dexter White.
White, a former state depart
ment official, was linked to a
wartime communist spy ring by
Elizabeth T. Bentley last year. He
denied the charge in a dramatic
committee appearance just before
he died of a heart attack.
Wallace Defends Self .
Nixon's speech came after for
mer Vice-president Henry A. Wal
lace defended himself before the
house committee against charges
that he helped the Russians get
uranium and other "vital ingredi
ents of the atomic bomb."
Wallace, who once headed the
board of economic warfare which
licensed wartime exports, said he
had nothing to do with the Rus
sian shipments and, in fact, didn't
even know they were made.
He believed the charge, orig
inally made by radio commenta
tor Fulton Lewis Jr., was "not
so much against me personally
as against the Roosevelt adminis
tration." "I emphatically deny." he said.
"that I ever knew atomic ship
ments were going to Russia or
that I ever used my influence or
position to give the soviet union
anything which might have aided
them in manufacturing an atomic
Domo.
Committee chairman John S,
Wood, Ga., recessed the hearing
until "about the middle of next
week." At that time, he said,
Lt. Gen. Leslie Groves, wartime
head of the Manhattan A-bomb
project, would be recalled for
questioning.
FIRE CALL ANSWERED
Bend firemen answered a fire
call Thursday at 3:03 p. m. at
Deschutes rooms, 128 Greenwood,
where an overheated oil stove
caused alarm. No damage was
reported.

French Police
Recover Jewels
Paris, Jan. 27 (Hi Some $350,-
000 worth of the $710,000 in jew
els stolen from the Aga Kahn on
the Riviera last August were re
turned to Marseille police surrep
titiously last night, j-rencn na
tional police announced today.
A mystery man, whom police
said probably was one of the
gang, h.'it a package containing
the jewels on the sidewalk In
front of a police station at about
8 p.m.
He then called the police and
said:
"You'll find the jewels outside
the station house."
Two inspectors rushed out and
recovered the package. French
national police in Paris said ex
perts examined the gems and
said there was "no doubt" they
were part of the loot taken from
the Aga Kahn.
The package contained clusters
of gems torn from their gold and
platinum settings as well as
bracelets, necklaces and clips
which were intact. The gems
which had been pried out of their
settings were easily recognized,
police said.
The mysterious package con
tained a note of instructions on
the outside saying it was to be
opened only in the presence of
Marcelle Sacotte, Marseille exam
ining magistrate in charge of in
vestigation of the Kahn robbery.
Sacotte was called in and the
package was opened.
A spokesman for the national
police, who announced that five
of the holdup gang were arrested
last week, said he believed police
had frightened the members of
the gang still at large who had
the jewels.
He said they apparently had
decided to take no chance of be
ing caught1 with the jewelry in
their possession.

PACKING PLANT BURNS
Goleta, Calif., Jan. 27 'U-iSher-if's
deputies tgday questioned a
night watchman who said he saw
a man starting a $1,500,000 blaze
that destroyed the Goleta Lemon
association packing plant.
The plant, seven miles north of
Santa Barbara, Calif., in one of
the world's largest lemon produc- i
ing areas, was razed last night
in a spectacular fire that raged
for two hours.
District Fire warden C. E. Lotz
said the blaze apparently was
started by a string of small fires
stretching from the second floor
to the basement. j
Firemen fighting the flames!
were hampered by lack of an ac- i
cesslblo water supply and tV
presence of five tanks of highly-j
explosive ethylene gas. j

Hydrogen Bomb
(Continued from Page 1)
recent lung operation has forced
him to give up some of his du
ties. It was said by a senate leader
that Bricker's name was pushed
through to enable the senator to
"sit in from the beginning" on
a "new line of discussion."
FAVORED BY BARUCH
Washington, Jan. 27 U') Ber- j
nard Baruch said today that this j
country ought to make the hy-
drogen bomb if it can. ' i
The elder statesman and au- j
thor of the world atomic control j
plan rejected in the United Na-
tions by Russia made his views I
known to the United Press as
atomic officials explored the sub
ject in a secret hearing with key
congressmen at the capital.
"If you knew of any instru
mentality to defend your' life.
would you try to gtt it?" Ba
ruch asked. I he question .an
swers itself." i,
Asked whether he feels the
hydrogen bomb issue with
which President Truman and his
advisers are struggling means
a new effort should be made- to
ward an atomic control agree
ment with Russia, Baruch replied:
We ought to be willing to lis
ten to anything that Russia or
anybody else has to propose."
But he made it clear that any
control proposal would have to
provide fool proof safeguards to
be acceptable to the United
States. i ' '
Peace Mnjor Goal .
The one vital factor "wo must
keep in mind," he said, is whether
the plan would assure 'peace to
the world."
The hydrogen bomb, scientists
say, would be at least twice as
powerful as the Plutonium bombs
now being manufactured. They
might be many times more pow
erful. But scientists have scouted
speculation that they would be
l.uuu times more violent than the
models which knocked Japan out
of the war.
