Many doctors .who treated
the victims diagnosed their
illness as food poisoning but
one military official denied it.
"There is no evidence of
food poisoning." said Col.
Thomas G. Faison, hospital
commander at Ft. Jackson,
after 112 persons had been
admitted to Army medical fa
cilities. Hundreds of others
had been treated by Army
personnel and then released.
"It appears to be a combin
ation of heat exhaustion, over
exertion and over-indulgence
of food and drink," he added.
However, while military
authorities were examining
further into the illnesses,
many local physicians said
' they were definitely treating
food poisoning.
"We called It acute gas

the living membrane of the
stomach and the intestines)

The statement said Presi
dent Chiang Kai shek and
Chen "have oeen watching
the developments closely"
since the number of refugees
increased sharply and the
British began shipping them
back.
"The Chinese government
is concerned and it has been
trying to find a solution for
the problem," the statement
said.
"Despite any difficulties,
the Chinese government is
prepared to admit to Taiwan
(Formosa) those refugees who
want to come here," it said.
The announcement added
that the Nationalist Chinese
government is "more than
willing to cooperate with the

Convictions in
Congressional
Hearings Upset
Washington - lUPB - The Su
preme Court ruled today that
six witnesses who defied con
gressional investigations of
Communist activities were il
legally convicted of contempt
because of faulty indictments.
In reversing the convictions,
the court declared that grand
jury indictments in contempt
of Congress cases must pin
point the subject being inves
tigated when the witness is
questioned.
For the majority, Justice
Potter Stewart said: "In each
case, the indictment returned
by the grand jury failed to
identify the subject under con
gressional subcommittee in
quiry at the time the witness
was interrogated."
Must Spell Out Purpose
In recent years, the court
has held that congressional
committee's must clearly spell
out the purposes of their in
vestigations. Stewart pointed
out in today's rulings that
the court had never before
decided whether a grand jury
indictment must do the same.
Stewart pointed out that
many contempt cases previ
ously decided by the court
have pointed up the impor
tance of determining wheth
er the question addressed to
the witnesses were pertinent.
Stewart then developed the
importance to an accused in
dividual of an indictment by
a grand jury. He said this is
basic in common law going
back to the 12th Century.
Basic Principle Cited
"The vice which inheres in
the failure of an indictment
(under the contempt statute)
to identify the subject matter
under Inquiry Is . . , the vio
lation of the basic principle
'that the accused must be ap
prised by the Indictment, with
reasonable certainty of, the
nature of the accusation
against him . . .' " the opinion
asserted.
The vole on all of the cases
but one was 5-2 with Justice
Tom C. Clark and John M.
Harlan dissenting. Justices Fe
lix Frankfurter and Byron R.
White did not participate.
The witnesses, none of
whom invoked the self-incrimination
privilege, were:
- Norton Anthony Russell,
a Yellow Springs, Ohio, engi
neer, called before a House
subcommittee on un-American
activities Sept. 15, 1954, at

The last time the GOP con

The bottom fell out in 1957
