S. code clerks who defected to Rus sia. Chairman Francis E. Walter of the House committee on Un-American Activities fired the blast at the Pentagon- aft er it had acknowledged that Bernon F. Mitchell, one of the two turncoats, had admit ted before behing hired by the National Security agency that he had engaged in "ab normal sexual practices while in his teens. The Pennsylvania Demo crat said the Defense depart ment "first called me a liar and now they admit I was right." Last week Walter charged that at least one of the two men was a "notorious homo sexual" and Indicated he had information that both were sex deviates. Referring to the Defense de partment's admission, Walter said "it is about time these people summon up a little intestinal fortitude and start telling the truth." Criticises Not Handling Earlier, Walter criticized the Pentagon for not publish ing the explanatory note left behind by one of the two de fectors in a suburban Wash ington bank. He said that, if this course had been followed, most of the sting would have been removed from the So viet propaganda. Walter said his investigat ors had not yet uncovered evi dence that either of the two men had been employed by the Soviet government before quitting the United States and turning up in Moscow. But he said the two men had come "pretty close to es pionage" by apparently tell ing the Russians everything they knew about the inner workings of the super-secret intelligence gathering net work of the NSA. Walter said he was looking Into a report from London that the English Communist Party had criticized the Amer ican Communist Parly for helping the two men escape from the United Slates. Might Have Joined Parly He said, if these reports prov ed true H definitely would In dicate that either one or both of the code clerks had been working for the Reds while employed by NSA. Walter said the London re ports indicated the two men may have joined the Ameri can Communist Party under assumed names in 1858. Meanwhile, the Defense De partment was conducting its own iquiry into the case. Named to head the investi gation was Lt. Gen. Joseph F. Carroll, Air Force inspector general. Carroll is a former FBI agent who helped break up the Roger Touhy gang in Chicago and once served as as sistant to FBI Director J. Ed gar Hoover. Two congressional investi gations already have been an nounced. A House armed serv ices subcommittee will start closed-door hearings Thursday and the House Committee on Un-Amcricon Activities begins an Inquiry Friday. Thing of Past The department said Mon day that Bernon F. Mitchell, one of the turncoats, admitted before being employed by the National Security Agency that he had engaged in "abnormal sexual practices" while in his teens. But, it added, the Investi gators concluded this aberra tion was a thing of the past and was not grounds for turn ing him down for employment as a mathematician in the agency where he was cleared for access to -certain secret material. Mitchell was 28 when he was hired In J957. Like Wil liam H. Martin, the other de fector, he had served three years In -the Navy and re ceived an honorable discharge.

Elmo Smith, the Republi- Campaign Quotes BY UNITED PRESS INTERNATIONAL Sen. John F. Kennedy (to Greater Houston, Tex., Minis terial Association): "Whatever issue may come before me as president on birth control, divorce, censorship, gambling or any other subject I will make my decision in accordance . . . with what my conscience tells me to be in the national interest and without regard to outside religious pressures or dictates. And no power or threat of punishment could cause me to decide otherwise. "But if the time should ever come and I do not concede any conflict to be even remotely possible when my office would require me to either violate my conscience or violate the national interest, then I would resign the office . . . "Because I am a Catholic and no Catholic has even been elected president, the real issues in this campaign have been obscured perhaps deliberately, in some quarters less re sponsible than this ..." , Vice President Richard M. Nixon (to President Eisen hower before departing on a 15-state campaign swing): The Nixon-Lodge ticket hopes to be able to conduct this campaign in a way that will meet the high standards you have set for political candidates in 1952 and 1956." (To Indianapolis rally): Voters must base their presi dential selection on whether the candidate is "qualified by experience and background to keep the peace for America without surrender and to extend freedom throughout the world." fin San Francisco speech): "Our leadership must continue to provide the kind of national maturity which President Eisenhower has provided for the past seven years . . . 14,500,000 Outdated Polio Vaccine Shots Declared Destroyed UO President Choice At Least Month Away Salem - IUPD - Chancellor John R.

"Ethical pharmaceu t i c a 1 manufacturers accept a great er burden of responsibility than most other manufactur ers," he said. "At this mo ment, for example, Lilly is maintaining huge stocks of polio vaccine which represent potential protection against this dread disease for millions of children and adults. "In spite of the fact that little vaccine is being used at present, we feel a continuing obligation to be prepared for sudden increases in demand resulting from threats of epi demic." Must B Destroyed Beesley explained that vac cine not used within a six month period must be destroy ed and then replaced with fresh stocks at the drug com panies' own expense. "During the past five years we have had to destroy the incredible total of more than 14,500,000 shots of outdated polio vaccine, vaccine which was produced with costly and painstaking care," he said. "This may or may not be 'good business,' as that term is normally used, but it is the kind of obligation which, as a pharmaceutical company, we accept." can senatorial nominee, told labor leaders in Albany Mon day night that if elected he would have a "fully quali fied, well informed represent ative from organized labor" on his staff in Washington, D.
