Disciplined 27 in 3 Years
By WILLIAM OALBRAITU
I'nited Press Staff Correspondent
WASHINGTON (UP)-The State
Department disciplined 27 em
ployes during the last three years
under its security program, but no
one was fired.
In addition, four employes were
dismissed from the department un
der President Eisenhower's government-wide
loyalty program.
U. S. Production
Continues Climb
WASHINGTON (UP) The na
tion's Industry set a production
record in September and October,
and shows signs of breaking the
new record this month.
September and October produc
tion climbed to 145 on the Federal
Reserve Board's index, which uses
average production for the years
1947-49 as a comparison Kasis of
100. This means production in
those months was 45 per cent
higher than the 1947-49 average.
The previous record was 144 last
December.
The board reported Thursday
that rising steel and auto output
were large contributors to the gen
eral production increase of the
past two months.
It said assemblies of 1957 model
cars rose sharply in early Novem
ber. Steel production this month
was close to the record volume in
October.
The only major area of indus
trial activity which fell off in Oc
tober was construction materials
and that fell only slightly. Lum
ber production has been sliding
since August.
Bufler Raps
U. S. Papers
WASHINGTON (UP) 'Demo
cratic National Chairman Paul M.
Butler said Thursday that newspa
pers carried "practically no criti
c!sm of the failures" of the ad-
r. ilnistratlon's foreign policy dur
ing the election campaign.
He said the press followed "the
Elsenhower administration's line
that all was right with the world."
Butler said press coverage in
the 1956 campaign "was more
fair" than in 1952. But he added:
"When war, broke outin. the
Middle tasi, lew newspaper read
ers were informed that the poli
cies of bungling during the past
four years led up to the events
that reached the crisis stage in
the last days of the campaign.'
He also cited a survey by Edi-
tor & Publisher, trade magazine
of the newspaper industry, which
showed that only 15 per cent of
the nation's daily papers, with
only about 10 per cent of the total
circulation, supported Democrat
Adlai E. Stevenson.
"In many states," he said,
"there' was no daily newspaper
supporting the Democratic candi
dates and no criticism of admin
istration policies."
The State Department started its
security program in October, 1953,
under the administration of Scott
McLeod. The program was design
ed to help clean up what Repub
licans called a "mess in the State
Department" left over from Demo
cratic administrations.
An information bulletin made
available to the United Press show
ed that in three years the depart
ment s security offices recom
mended 33 disciplinary actions, in
cluding nine letters of reprimand
and 24 temporary suspensions.
For One Day
Actually, only 18 department
employes were suspended for in
fractions of security rules and nine
others were sent reprimands. None
was fired.
Informed sources said most of
the suspensions were for one day.
The maximum could have been 30
days.
The disciplinary action was
meted out for such rule infractions
as leaving security papers on
desks at night and forgetting to
lock security files at night. 4
There are about 12,000 persons
working for the State Department
here and abroad.
In all, the bulletin said, the se
curity office checked 967 violations
during the three-year period. Ap
parently the bulk of the violations
did not warrant disciplinary ac
tion.
20 Won Appeals
The security office explained
that first violations "are ordinarily
acknowledged by a letter from the
office of security to the employe,"
but no immediate record is made
in his personnel record. If a sec
ond violation occurs within two
years, both violations are record
ed in the personnel record.
The bulletin said that "relative
ly few employes of, the Department
of State or the foreign service are
responsible for repeated viola
tions.
It said that "less than one per
cent of all employes commit 12
per cent of the violations."
The, security office also said
some 50 persons involved in i
curity cases have appealed the
cases. About 20 won their point.
The security office said that in
each successful appeal information
was brought out which was not
originally available to the security
onice.

the upper reaches of the Midwest
today after howling across the
Northern Plains, coating roads
with packed ice and snow and
causing at least tnree tr a 1 1 ic
deaths.
The dead were motorists who
were unable to control their skid
ding autos on the glazed high
ways.
Meanwhile, the coldest weather
of the season pushed eastward.
causing thermometers to nosedive
through Ohio in the north ant
Mississippi in the south.
All of the central portion of the
nation except the Northwest was
gripped by the cold snap.
Wide Snow Belt
Heavy snow spread a white blan
ket from eastern Montana through
western Upper Michigan. Snow
depths generally varied from six
to eight inches in most storm-hit
sections, but one of the heaviest
snowfalls was at Duiuth, Minn.,
where 12 inches fell.
Strong northwest winds, with
velocities often reaching as high
ARREST FOLLOWS CRASH
City police reported Tuesday
that Carl G. Surface, 21, of 1427

the outside lane of Wall street in

other car.
The second car was operated by

face was arrested on the charge
of turning from the wrong lane
55 miles per hour, whipped
snow Into deep drifts and reduced
visibility as low as poor to zero.
Eight inches of snow was re
ported at Grantsburg, Wis., and
three inches whitened parts ot
Upper Michigan where the heavy
snow was continuing today. North
west Iowa was covered with a
two-inch blanket of white.
Highways in Minnesota, Wiscon

gan, and northwest Iowa were
glazed with ice and snow, and re
ported hazardous.
Buses and trains ran "way be

gan were jammed with lake boats
fearful of venturing out on the
storm-tossed waters.

perior, iron ore, shipments halted
as snow and wind drove crews off
the docks. The loading of iron ore
from the Gobegic range at Iron
wood, Mich., and Hurley, Wis., al

of the new big m, There's new hip room and leg room. As much shoulder room,
for example, as in many of the most expensive cars. The floor is now re

And the 19S7 Mercurys are up to 225 pounds heavier, too. A far lower center of
gravity gives you an amazing sense of "nailed-down" stability on curves and corners.
NEW POWER UP TO 290 HP
A 255-hp Safety-Surge engine is standard. A
290-hp Turnpike Cruiser V-8 is optional. And
there are two Mercury engine "firsts." A
Thermo-matic Carburetor controls the temper

extra power and economy. And, in the Mont

not needed for coolingsaves horsepower.
NEW DREAM-CAR DESIGN
1957's most advanced styling a clean-cut,
dynamic look that makes other cars look old
fashioned. The roof is .gracefully slender

influence the shape of cars for years to come.
