McCarthy Denies
Hostile Feeling
Boston (U.R) Sen. "Joseph R.
McCarthy denied toAiy that he
felt any "hostility" for President
Nathan M. Pusey of Harvard
University, but said he still has
"no respect for the man."
McCarthy testified under
cross-examination at the trial of
a former Harvard psychologist
charged with contempt of Con
gress for refusing to name his
old associates in the Communist
party.
Attorney Calvin P. Bartlett,
counsel for Leon J. Kamin, 27,
sought to show that McCarthy's
Jan. 15, 1954, interrogation of
Kamin in Boston was an attempt
to expose Communism at Har
vard to the "glare of publicity"
because of the senator's "hostil
ity" toward Pusey.
McCarthy said exposure of
Communism was "always in the
back of my mind" but it was not
the "primary purpose" of the in
quiry. He said his main purpose
at the one-nlan hearing was to
"eliminate Kamin from defense
work. He was a radar technician."
Adams Asked To List
Conference Members
Washington (U.R) Demo'

er to the Georgia Power comp
any.
Chairman Earl Chudoff (D-
Pa.), declared at a stormy session
of his Government Operations
subcommittee that "the people
have a right to know what their
representatives are doing."
He compared the handling of
the Georgia power case to-the
Dixon-Yates contract.
Over GOP objections, Chudoff
sent a telegram to Adams de
manding to know how many
White House conferences were
held, who attended them, and
when they were held. '

Collier's Sees
Adlai With 450
Convention Votes
New York (U.R) Adlai E.
Stevenson could enter a Demo
cratic national convention today
with a probable 450 votes of the
600 expected for a majority,
Collier's magazine said today.
In an article by Theodore H.
White, based on his own survey
and that of Collier's editorial of
fices across the country, the mag
azine said New York's Gov. Aver-
ill Harriman, on the same basis,
can be counted 'for "an easy 150"
convention votes.
Tennessee's Senator Estes Ke-
fauver is figured for 70 or 80
votes as of today, but a possible
350 to 400 "if he goes out and
fights in the primaries."
The magazine assumed Stev
enson's candidacy and assumed
Harriman would be at least a
tactical candidate but said it was
not yet certain whether Kefau
ver would decide to make the
primary ' races he must fight to
enter the convention as a real
contender.
In totaling up convention votes
the magazine figured for Steven
son: Illinois, Indiana, Minnesota
after a possible first ballot for
favorite son Sen. Hubert Hum
phrey, Michigan probably after
a first ballot vote for Gov. G.
Mennen Williams, Pennsylvania,
Delaware, Missouri; part of the
vote of New Jersey, Tennesee,
Maryland, Connecticut and Mas
sachusetts; Mississippi, Louis
iana, Georgia, North Carolina
and most of Alabama. It figured
the Far West as "unpredictable"
but noted strong support in
Washington, New Mexico and
Oregon for Stevenson. The mag
azine did not make a numerical
break-down of estimated conven
tion strength.
It figured for Harriman: New
York "with the possible excep
tion of Sen. Herbert Lehman,
who is flatly for Stevenson";
part of New Jersey, Massachu
setts and Maryland; the District
of Columbia, Utah and Idaho.
Kefauver's possible 350 to 400
convention votes could be gath
ered only by primary races in
the big primary states, the maga
zine said. New Hampshire, Wis
consin, Ohio, Nebraska, Florida,
West Virginia, Oregon, Montana,
Arizona and California.
December Draff Caff
Will Be 18,000 Men
Washington --(U.R) The De

vember call, and the Navy will
take 10,000.
The Pentagon said all 18,000
men will be inducted between
Dec. 1 and Dec. 10 and, because
of the Christmas holiday season,
no more men will be drafted
