Army Refutes (Continued from Page 1) The Army issued a state ment which made no direct mention of McCarthy but was obviously framed as a reply to his Wednesday actions. The statement said the docu ment entitled "Psychological and Cultural Traits of Soviet Siberia" was intended for limited distribution to intelli gence offcers "to develop un derstanding of the Soviet peo ple which will be militarily useful in case of war." At the capitol, McCarthy told newsmen he had received a copy of the Army statement 'Neither the Army nor any other branch of government is going to hide dishonesty, cor ruption or communism by put ting a 'secret' label on it," he said. "If they are putting out Com munist propaganda, they can't keep it from the public by stamping It 'secret' or 'restrict ed' and calling it an indoctrina tion course." It said the conclusion, on pages 74 and 75 of the original document, declared in part that the Soviet citizen lives and works almost like a convict. These pages were not released by the senator. The Army statement quoted the document as saying: "As wss noted previously, such an existence would be in tolerable to Americans. Amer ican traditions and beliefs mil- n.i. . . i .

It was not until about 9 p. m. that the deadlock was broken. The officials agreed to give up all the fish to the Indians ex cept 43 pounds, which police plan to use as evidence in Row ley's trial in Justice court here. With that, the Indians re moved the road blocks, and po lice and trucks were allowed to leave.
