Hearings last week be f o r e the House Un American Ac tivities sub committee in vestig a t i n g Commu n 1 5 t i n f luence in the New York area of Women Strike for Peace indicated that Chair man Clyde Doyle (D-Calif.) knew a potential political danger when he saw it con fronting him in aroused fe males concerned for world peace. Doyle Is a gentle man, un like some past HUAC chair men. He was polite to the point of meekness to the ever demonstrating ladies. The counsel of the committee questioned feminine witnesses in tones that bowed and scraped, even when faced with women who defiantly challenged the committee's right to inquiry and who took the fifth amendment rather than admit to a Communist past or present. Doyle tried to persuade the women that the HUAC was not interested in interfering with the right to participate in peace groups. He pointed out that Communists have a habit of infiltrating and lead ing peace movements. The audience would have no part of it; they were there to cheer their heroines and (literally) hiss their villains, those informers who names were mentioned as having fingered Communists. Wore Peace Roses They groaned, hooted and tittered at counsel's questions. TTicy wore white rayon peace roses and several presented bouquets to the witnesses. The women who presented Mrs. Dagmar Wilson, the head of WSP, with flowers also dangled a bare-foot baby on her hip. The bulk of the wo men present were from New york and they numbered sev eral hundred.

According to Congressman Doyle, who said the commit tee had worked for six months gathering evidence, they did not subpoena any witness whom they did not have good , evidence to indicate were Communists, with the excep tion of Mrs. Wilson. She was treated with such delicacy by the committee that she was able to deftly avoid answering embarrassing questions, primarily those which sought to show whether the New York group did in j fact control the activities of the organization. J Gra.se Roots Movement j Mrs. Wilson blandly refused to concede that the organiza tion was an organization, pre fering to refer to it as a grass roots movement in j which women just acted "spontaneously". As the! chairman pointed out, the ac tivities of the women in the audience alone indicated that their action was somewhat less than spontaneous. . A spokesman for the com-1 mittee felt that Mrs. Wilson's answers to questions about who decided to fly delegates 1 to the disarmament confer ence at Geneva, to picket the United Nations and the White House indicated that the New York group did control WSP. Mrs. Wilson at the conclu sion of her testimony seemed to indicate that Communists would be welcome in WSP and when asked if she would undertake to remove known Communists from leadership said in an indignant voice: "Certainlty not!" Her testimony was thought by Doyle to be "naive" in the face of evidence of the avow ed intent of Communists to subvert to their own use the universal yearning of women and men in peace groups to do something to end the nu clear arms race. He pointed out that the women subpoened were lead ers of the New York area WSP, not voiceless envelope stuffers, and these were the ones who invoked the fifth amendment. Chairman Doyle when ask ed how a person could know if a group was dominated by Communists when she wanted to join groups to work for peace and exercise her rights as an American to demon strate, picket and pressure politicians, only shook his head and said that everyone would just have to be her own watchdog. Aluminum Pact Said Carried Out Despite Overstock Washington - IUPD - Senate investigators were told today the government went through with a West Coast aluminum contract in 1055 even though aluminum supplies then on hand were far in excess of stockpile goals. Two attorneys, who played key government roles in the negotiations, also told the Sen ate stockpile subcommittee that Arthur S. Flemming, then defense mobilizer, ordered the contract carried out when the Harvey Machine Co. threat ened to sue for $70 million damages if it were cancelled. The wilnesses were Max well H. Elliott, then general counsel of the General Service Administration who later went to work for Harvey, and Charles H. Kendall, general counsel of the Office of Emer gency Planning who held a similar post with the Office of Defense Mobilization during the contract period. Both Elliott and Kendall said they did not take the $70 million figure in the threat ened suit too seriously but felt the government probably was in the position of breaking a contract If it did not follow through. Harvey claimed it had already spent $2 million on the plant In anticipation of getting the power and produc ing aluminum. The Senate stockpiling sub committee, headed by Sen. Stuart Symington (D-Mo.) sought to find out why the government agreed to slick by the contract with Harvey in I85S rather than face a dam age suit fur $70 million. Symington has termed the threatened suit "incredible." The Harvey firm was repre sented at the time by the N-w York law firm of former Gov. Thomas E. Dewey, but attor ney James Nlckeraon handled the case for the company. Although it has needed no aluminum for the stockpile for many years, the govern ment has bought $7I,B38,000 worth from Harvey so far and may buy $30,860,000 more from the Harvey plant at The Dalits, Ore Si and Grape fc,,, M'J Limit Rights Free Parking Good Buys for MONDAY - TUESDAY - WEDNESDAY FRESH round Beef iif LBS. l'fff r?'"- a Mil t ' mil FULLY COOKED BONELESS QQ Regular 00 $3.89 Price California Smoothie Brand Pkg.
