Bills in Legislature Salem (U.R) A bill which would stiffen loyalty require ments lor state civil defense workers has been sent back to the Military Affairs Committee by the House. Rep. Alfred Corbett (D-Port-land) attacked the bill as an as sault on personal liberties and said he was surprised and shocked that such a proposal should have come from a com mittee of a Democratic Legis lature. The bill would deny persons the right to be employed by civil defense agencies or be associated with the agencies if they ever had personally advocated or been an affiliate of any political party or organization advocat ing change or overthrow of the government by force.- Corbett criticized the bill on two principal points the use of the word affiliate and the denial of employment to per sons who may have participated ,ln activities in the past when such activities were not con sidered subversive.
