Un-American
Committee Head
Blisfs Pentagon
Washington - IUPD - A con
gressional investigator accus
ed the Defense department
today of "deliberately mis
leading the American people"
about the two U. 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.

Oregon Political Activity
By United Press International
Vice President Richard Nix
on's visit highlighted Oregon
political activity today.
Nixon was scheduled for a
fast 4i hour tour of the Portland-Vancouver
area after a
flight from San Francisco. He
was to leave for Boise at 4

Accompanying the Republi

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 . . .
