Espionage Aided Sputniks
Security Group Charges
Washington ilf) The Sen
ate Internal Security subcom
mittee said Saturday that se
crets stolen from the United,
States helped Russia launch
Its Sputniks and score other
scientific gains.
The subcommittee offered
no specific facts to support
the assertion.
- In a report of Soviet es
pionage in the United States,
the subcommittee said, "the
appearance of the Soviet
Sputnik in the sky in October
more sharply highlighted the
vain a nf Qfwiot ocninnaup
than any recent happening."
Subcomittee Chairman
JamM O. 'Eastland fD-Miss..
commenting on the report in
a statement released with it,

collected during the year that
an important factor in the
speedy rise of Communist sci
entific eminence is the theft
of military secrets from the
United States."
"They got these secrets
free, without the drudgery of
slow research which would
have kept them from moving
on 'to new things," he said.
In its conclusions, the sub
committee warned that "So
viet espionage is presently
continuing in . the United
States" and "remains a ma
jor activity" upon' which the
Russians depend in their
"quest for a time advantage
over the United States as a
step toward ultimate -world
conquest.".

Committee Chairman John
L. McClellan (D-Ark.) order
ed the transcript of the Food
Fair hearings sent to the jus
tice department to check for
possible violations of the
Taft-Hartley or other laws.
There were also several cases
of directly conflicting testi
mony during the hearing.
Principal figures next
week will be Max Block, pres
ident of butchers Locals 342
and 640 and an international
butcher union vice president,
and his brother Louis, former
president of Local 640 ' and
now head of pensions funds
for Max's locals.
Bought Stock Cheaply
The Block brothers got
prominent mention in the
Food Fair investigation. A
committee aide testified the
two New York men were per
mitted to-buy $24,800 worth
of stocks and bonds in a Food
Fair affiliate for $14,000. The
investigator, George Kopecky,
said Food Fair saved $25,'000
on its pension plan arrange
ment with New York area
butchers unions.
Kopecky said Food Fair
saved $142,000 on Philadel
phia butcher union pensions.
The negotiator for those pen
sions, Kopecky testified, was
Leon Shacter, a butcher un
ion vice president who got
$1,203 worth of Food Fair
Properties, Inc. stock , for ' a
$300 outlay.
The Food Fair phase of the
investigation ended with tes
timony from the big super
market company's president,
Louis Stein, who denied there
was anything improper in the
securities transactions.
Although' Kopecky had tes
tified that 21 union officials
weft premitted to buy $90,400
worth of stocks and bonds for
$42,100, Stein said he had no
thought of trying to buy fa
vorable treatment for his com
pany. Denies Charge ?
Stein said it was a matter
of "person to person relation
ships." Meanwhile, at Reading, Pa.,
a member of the Pennsyl
vania Labor Relations Board
accused the Senate Rackets
Committee of "character as
sassination" in naming him
as one of a group of union
officials which purchased the
Food Fair stocks at discount
rates.
John T. Haltesky, business
agent for Retail Clerks Local
1383, said he purchased the
stock in 1955 on the open
market at $1 per share as an
investment. He denied being
on any preferred list.
Kopecky had testified
that Haltesky purchased $1,
600 worth of stock in Food
Fair Properties, Inc., for $400.

TV Said Not To
Replace Teachers
Albany, N.Y. (If) "Tele
vision will never take the
place of the teachers, but it
can help the teacher do a
better - job and reach many
more people," according to
New York state's education
commissioner.
Commissioner Dr. James E.
Allen Jr., made the observa
tion after witnessing a dem
onstration of classroom in
struction by -television at Al
bany State Teachers College
for state officials, legislators,
educators and representatives
of newspapers and TV sta
tions. ' t
Allen's statement also was
the 'consensus of others view
ing the program.
. Teachers said the TV tech
nique spurred them to more
thorough preparation.
Pupils said they liked it.
Particularly students in teacher-training
found television an
improvement over other ways
of observing teaching meth
ods. Teachers were shown giving
instruction to several classes
at once, with a free flow of
questions and answers, be
tween the classrooms made
possible by closed-circuit TV
receivers and a two-way au
dio system.
. Classes in third-grade spell
ing were taught by a teacher
about a mile from the pupils.
Microwave also linked teach
ers in seventh-grade English
and lOth-grade biology to
their classes.
On the college level, a les
son in college accounting was
taught by one professor to
students in four viewing
rooms.
In speaking to the witness
ing "group, Dr. Warren W.
Knox,, assistant commissioner
for instructional services,
challenged school officials to
find in instructional TV ways
to improve the 1 quality and
widen the scope of education.
'Grappliri'Chaplain'
Pride of Center ?
Ft. Knox, Ky. (IP) The
Armored Training Center
here is proud of its "grapplin'
chaplain." 1st Lt. Halcott M.
Turner.
The 26-year-old Presbyteri
an minister won the national
Olympic free-style champion
ship in the 174-pound division
at Waynesburg College, repre
senting the New York Ath
letic club.
Turner, a graduate of the
University of o Virginia and
Union Theological Seminary,
had hoped to postpone his
entry into the army' until
after a scheduled goodwill
exhibition tour with the na
tional AATJ team to Japan.
Instead, the army inducted
him immediately and gave
him leave of absence to make
the45-day tour, which started
June 29.
Upon his return he will be
assigned to a training regi
ment as its chaplain.
Asked if he would like to
have a 175-pound assistant
who can wrestle, Turner said,
"Yes, if he can also play the
pipe organ and type. I. can't
do either one."
he will say.
"We don't have the least
idea what he's going to say,"
said attorney William Mat-
schullat. "All we care is that
he says something."
The trial recessed for the
week end Friday after testi
mony from 15 prosecution
witnesses who told how Rob
ert Jensen, 17, the, victim for
whose death Starkweather is
on trial, was found shotvto
death with his high school
sweetheart.j Carol . King. .
The defense does not deny
that Starkweather shot Jen
sen, but contends the red
haired former garbage hauler
was legally insane and suf
fering from "delusions" dur
iifg his January killing spree.
His attorneys said S t a rk
weather's claim that Jensen
and the other 10 victims were
shot in self defense shows he
is insane. Four of the victims
were women and one was a 2-year-old
girl.
The state attempted to
show by testimony of Dr. E.
D. Zeman, a pathologist, that
Jensen was shot six times
from behind the ear, two
through it and one in front
of it.
Starkweather, who remain
ed quiet and impassive
through most of the jury se
lection and first day of testi
mony Friday, flailed out at a
photographer at ythe noon
break. He pushed the man
against a bannister. '
County Attorney Elmer
Scheele said the state's direct
testimony would last "a
couple of days yet at,least."
