WASHINGTON IUP) Instead
of being over and a big victory
for somebody, the dispute over the
issue of U.S. passports to suspect
ed subversives is only beginning
to DOII.
American citizens will learn.
as the argument develops, that
the United States long has had a
tighter grip on their foreign travel
than Is imposed, for example, by
Canada. France or Britain.
A footnote to that fact, however.
s that all French and British se
curity precautions against subver
sion are notably weaker than it
tie United States. Canadian se
curity is rated good
Americans also will learn that
Franklin D. Roosevelt is vigorous
ly on record in this dispute. FDR
lined up with those who would
deny U.S. passports to unreliable
citizens. He issued an executive
order in the peacetime year of
1938 expressly authorizing the sec
retary of state "in his discretion
to refuse to issue a passport."
Truman On Record
Former President Truman is
similarly on record and his secre
tary of state. Dean Acheson. made
the stringent regulations effective
through the passport division
which was headed by the efficient
and strong willed luth B. Shipley.

the secretary of state for 50
years, perhaps always, has exer
cised discretion in the issue of
passports. However, before World
War 1 it was not necessary to have
a passport To travel overseas.
Now it is. Under the regulations
inherited by Miss Knight from the
nooscveit and Iranian administra
tions and as the Eisenhower ad
ministration wants them enforced,
Miss Knight will keep American
Communists and their active
sympathizers at home, so far as
the courts will permit.
Avoids Legal Showdown
The Eisenhower administration
avoided a legal showdown on the
issue of a passport for Dr. Otto
Nathan, a German born professor
at New York University and ex
ecutor of the late Albert Ein
stein's estate. U. S. District Judge
Henry A. Schweinhaut ordered the
Slate Department on June 1 to is

was supported by the U. S. Court

Sailor Takes
Poke at Admiral
PLYMOUTH, England im - A
Royal Navy seaman was held
today lor taking a poke at an
admiral for no apparent reason.
The incident occurred yesterday
aboard the maintenance ship Ber
ry Head as 52-ycar-old Vice Adm.
John Eaton was inspecting the
crew at fire drill.
The admiral staggered back
from the unexpected blow and his
hat sailed over the side into the
sea.
A navy statement said: "A rat

admiral and has been detained
pending medical examination and
investigation."
The seaman's name was not dis

It had denied the passport on
grounds that Nathan had been a
German Communist in 1933 and
since had associated with Reds
and their fronts. Nathan denied
membership but refused to swear
he had not belonged to Commu
nist front groups.
The department backed up again
this month. It reversed a decision
that foreign editor Joseph Clark
of the Communist newspaper Daily
Worker could not travel to cover
the Geneva Big Four meeting.
And after six years of refusing a
passport, the department issued
one to Dr. Martin D. Kamen of
Washington University, St. Louis,
Mo., an atomic scientist formerly
accused of Communist affiliations.

1947.
Now Comes Paul Robeson
Now comes Paul Robeson,

are sugni, although he was auth.

engagement in Canada., No pass
port is required to cross that bor

tives are these:
1. Scrap the regulations where

kept certain unreliable citizens at
home.
2. Select a good case and carry
it to the Supreme Court.
3. Appeal to Congress for more
specific legislation on the subject.
congressmen might hesitate to
vote against a bill which provided
merely the refusal of a passport
to persons reasonably suspected
of seeking foreign travel to work
against the best interests of the
United States.
