Removal Hot
Book Burning'
WASHINGTON UJV-The Senate
investigations subcommittee head
ed by Sen. McCarthy (R-Wisi says
it wasn't "book burning" to re
move "Communist books" from
U. S. overseas libraries
The committee wrote into a re
port made public yesterday some
caustic words for its critics and
the comment that some of the of
ficials of the overseas information
program tinder the last Demo
cratic administration showed "cur
ious color blindness, to anything
Red or pink."
The group, which investigated
the libraries 'for four controversy-!
packed months last year, said
"blantantl.-' pro-Communist, pro
Soviet and anti-American material"
was used in them. Books by "com
munists and those who have aided
the Communists" totaled more than
30.000 conies, it said.
The subcommittee said the head
of the new U. S. Information
Agency IUSIA'. Theodore C.
Streibert, should be invited next
month to tell the subcommittee
about "his accomplishments and
improved procedures during the
past six months."
The report made puonc yester
day said "many of those who now
complain of alleged 'book burn
ing apparently made no public
protests when the United States
government itself in 1946 destroy
ed literally hundreds of thou
sands if not millions of books in
occupied Germany."
It said destruction of books
deemed to be Nazi, militaristic or
anti-democratic was conducted by
military government authorities on
such a scale in conquered Germany
that it was almost impossible to
re-establish German schools until
textbooks could be rewritten.
The report continued:
"Book burning sauce for the Nazi
goose was not sauce for the Com -
I munist gander. In our opinion,
neither the propaganda of thelcrau. favor letting it drop to 47
Nazis or the Communists should be j
encouraged or promoted by the.
United States government."

At the same time, the court
said the question of whether the
illegal search and seizure vio
lated rights under the U. S. con
stitution was not Detore it.
The tribunal said the Maryland
state court of appeals, which up
held tne conviction, did not in
terpret the law Involved aa act-
ually sanctioning illegal sesrehes
and seizures. Had it don so, the
supreme court said, the question
of constitutional rights "might
arise.-
Justice Burton, who wrote the
court's 7-1 decision, did not amp
lify this point. The high tribunal
in the past often has upheld the
rignt or state courts to make use
of evidence which would be
thrown out of federal courts on
the grounds that it was obtained
by illegal search and seizure.
Justice Douglas dissented from
the ruling, contending as he has
in past dissents thst the federal
constitution bars the use in any
criminal prosecution of evidence
obtained "by the lawless action
of police." t
Justice Reed took no part in
the case which applied specifi

On the strike Drooosal Uw Prwri.
dent recommended that before a
union could order workers off
their jobs the workers be required
to approve the action in a secret,
government-held election.
Eisenhower's proposals contained
some changes suggested by man
agement and some asked by labor.
Among the presidential propos
als was one that would give states
more jurisdiction in labor disputes.
Others would require employers
to submit non - Communist affi
davits as well aa union leaders,
and would remove some of the
present restrictions against union
boycotts and strikers.
Eisenhower called on Congress
to make a "thorough1 study" of
union welfare pension funds "with
a view of enacting such legislation
as will protect and conserve these
funds for the millions of working
men and women who are the bene
ficiaries." The President reiterated his con
viction that the Taft-Hartley act
is "sound legislation." But he said
experience gained during the sev
en years the law has been in ef
fect, indicates that changes are
needed "to reinforce its basic ob
jectives." -

The report, filed Saturday, was
