peciai Commission Calls For Overhaul in Programs ! Owner of Slum Homes Fined in Chicago I Sunday, June 23, 1957 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUTE THREE Wohiiigt':n T A special Jijveitiatm conmus.--.ion called Saturday for a major overhaul ot the government s loyaity-se-cunty programs. Tr.e 12-mcmbfr comn.i.-sion on Ci.VPrnmr-nt security -et up by Cfi,g.-es in 1155 said that adopt ion of its recommendations would "enhance the protection afforce-1 national security while substantially increaiiri the pro tection of tlie individual." It railed the present loyalty- f security programs for govern- j men, workers a "hybrid" hodge podge that ha-, "sorely tried" the , public confidence caused fear J and unrest among employees, j and resulted in "inconclusive" i judgment-.. Independent Office The commission s key propo- : sal ures creation of a sepa- ; rate and independent central se- curit office to conduct loyalty ! hearings for civilian employees. As a "matter of fair play," it held in its BUO-page report that j employees accused of disloyalty j siiould be given the right to con front and cross-examine thier ac cusers, except when the derog atory information was supplied by paid confidential informants whose identity could not be dis closed without destroying their usefulness in intelligence work. The commission also recom mended criminal penalties for newspapermen or others who "willfully" make public secret government information. At present only government employees may be prosecuted for such disclosures. The commis sion said a law making it a crime for anyone to do so "would act as a genuine deterrent to those who. . . without pernicious or subversive intent, deliberately compromise vital defense infor mltion for the sake of publicity or for any commercial or other puroose." 18 Months Work The report climaxed 1 3 months of vork by the bi-partisan com-mi.-Mon. headed by Loyd Wright. Los Angeles lawyer and former pres'dent of the American bar association. It was formally sub mitted to President Eisenhower and congress. Presidential press secretary James C. Haijertj said Eisenhow er considers it a "good report" and generally favors it Haserty added however, that this did not commit the p.'esldcnt to approv ing every recommendation. The commission criticized the Eisenhower administration's pro gram of mixing cases of disloy alty with other security risks. It recommended that they be kept separate to guard employ ees fired for ' personal aberra tions" from the "unjust stigma of disloyalty."" Under the current system, it said, figures released on secur ity firings contain "large num bers" of cases wlicre the chief reason for discharges was un suitability not disloyally. "All loyalty cases are security cases, but the converse is not true." it said. "A man who talks too freely when in his cups or a pervert who is vulnerable to blackmail, may both be security risks aUhough both may be loy al Americans." Under its proposal, the central security office would handle dis loyalty cases only, while some other cases would be handled by the various agencies under reg ular procedures governing "suit ability" for employment. Wright told newsmen at a press conference that the pro posed central security office should cure "woeful defects" and the "utter lack of uniform- i'y" in the present setup. Each government agency now conducts its own hearmgs on suspected security risks. Stale Department Accuses Russia of Renegingon Pledge I Order Your Awnings NOW BEFORE THE HEAT SEASON BEGINS! FREE ESTIMATES WITHOUT OBLIGATIONS! WE HAVE BAMBOO ROLLER SHADES ANYTHING FOR WINDOWS . . . VALLEY SHADE CO. 207 N. Harriett Phone SP 3-4620 Washington IT The State Department Saturday accused Russia of reneging on a televis ion pledge by Nikita Khrush chev "to do away" with the dip lomatic travel restrictions. It made public the text of a 150-word Soviet note on the East-West travel squabble as it was learned that four Soviet Embassy officials are on an 18 day motor tour of southern states, including Louisiana and Alabamba. They are Embassy Counselor Vladimir S. Lavrov. first secre tary Aleksandr K. Startsev, Sec ond Secretary Antaoli Myshkov. and Attache Yury V. Zaitscv. 'Fails To Mention' The department pointed ou that the Soviet note "fails to mention" oft-repealed American proposals for mutual abandon ment of travel curbs in both countries. Russians in the Un ited States, for example, mus! obtain advance State Depart ment permission for travel in this country. Certain areas are off limits. The Soviet note said "circum stances of a temporary charac ter" had caused Moscow to close at least for a while areas nor mally open to American travel The State Department said this is "unsatisfactory." It saici the failure to even mention Am erican offers amounted to a re jection. "The action was taken : despite a statement by first Sec , retary Nikita Khrushchev be fore an American television au dience on June 2, 1957, that the Soviet government would agree to abolish travel restrictions on a reciprocal basis," the depart , ment said. Chicago IP Ira J. Clemens, the owner of a slum dwelling which hold 500 people, has been slapped with a SI 07.600 fine for violating the city's housing and electrical codes. The fines were the highest on record for such offenses. In handing down the stiff sen tence. Municipal Court Judge James A. Geroulis said the maxi mum penalty was imposed be cause the violations were "the most flagrant of their kind in i the city." I Clemens failed to show- up in court, which further fanned Ger oulis' wrath. Geroulis issued a warrant for his arrest and said Clemens could work off his fine if he refused to pay. At the rate of S2 a day, Clem ens faces a possible sentence of more than 147 years behind bars.
