McCarthy To Oppose Brennan Nomination For Supreme Court Washington .U.?.i Sen. Jo seph R. McCarthy (R-Wis.) said today he will oppose President Eisenhower's nomination of Wil liam Joseph Brennan to be a Su preme Court justice. McCarthy acknowledged that Brennan appears to" "have the votes" to win confirmation by the Senate. But he said he would be "derelict" in his duty if he failed to call the Senate's attention to speeches in which, he said, Brennan criticized con gressional committees exposing Communists. Guerilla War Said Waged "W h i 1 e he makes fine speeches against Communism," McCarthy said, "he has been waging a guerilla war against committees that pick up individ ual Communists by the scrulf of the neck and expose them." McCarthy said Brennan had used his former position as a New Jersey Supreme Court jus tice as a "sounding board" to label the work of Communist investigating committees as "witch hunts." Brennan, a Democrat, has been serving on the U.S. court since last fall under a recess appointment made by Mr. Ei senhower. His nomination was officially received by the Senate Monday. Brennan is the first Catholic to serve on the high court since Justice Frank Murphy, who died in 1949. McCarthy also is a Catholic. Brennan's appointment must be passed on by the Senate Ju diciary Committee before it is i sent to the full Senate for ap- l proval or rejection. I Other Nominations ; Among other nominations i sent to the Senate by the Presi dent Monday was that of an old McCarthy adversary. Brig. Gen. Ralph W. Zwicker, who was recommended for promotion to the rank -of major general. Zwicker was a central figure in the Army-McCarthy row, and McCarthy once charged that the general was not fit to wear the U.S. Army uniform. Zwicker had refused to tell McCarthy who ordered an honorable dis charge for former Army Maj. Irving Peress, an Army dentist the senator had accused of being a "Fifth Amendment Commu nist." An Army investigation subse quently absolved Zwicker of any blame in the award of the honor able discharge to Peress.

Delivery Time Hears for Grace Monaco U.R) The question of where Princess Grace's baby will be born was coupled today with an older question: When? There was no doubt that time is drawing near for the arrival of the first born of Prince Rai nier and Princess Grace. But, although elaborate prep arations for the royal birth have been made at Monaco's Mater nity hospital, the expectant fa ther switched signals Monday and said he would like the heir to the throne born in his yellow walled palace. Carpenters and painters began working on a spare room next to the royal couple's apartment overlooking the Mediterranean to convert it into a delivery room. But the decision is not final Palace sources said Princess Grace is still holding out for the clinic. Doctors agreed the matter must be decided within the next week to 10 days if not sooner. News Coverage Of Swearing-in Ceremony Urged Washington (U.R) The Ra dio - Television Correspondents' Association today urged that President Eisenhower's private swearing-in ceremony next Sun day be open to all news media. The ceremony will take place at the White House and all news media have been barred. The President's formal inauguration will take place next Monday on the Capitol's steps. TV commentator Joseph F. McCaffrey, president of the Radio-TV Correspondents' Asso ciation, sent the group's request Monday to White House Press Secretary James C. Hagerty. People Should. Be Part "We feel that rather than be ing excluded from it," he said, "the American people should be a part of this great occasion in our history. We hope that the President's and your own deep feeling for our traditions will re sult in the lifting of the present ban." At the same time Sen. Richard L. Neuberger charged that bar ring the press and radio from coverage of the President's in augural oath will further reduce the presidency to a "ceremonial office." The Oregon Democrat, a for mer journalist himself, said he hoped White House press offic ials would reconsider their decision. The first state to regulate se curity sales was Rhode Island which passed such a statute in about 1910. Maison May Be Replaced By Governor Holmes Salem U.R) Reports per sisted today that H. G.
