Monday. nncrcwnttn:i.,ipa HERALD ft NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON FACf BOHT International Legal Opinion Backs Discharge of Disloyal UN Employes liwur.n NATTONfl. N. Y. to The United Natlona had high liral opinion today to back up firings by Secretary Oeneral Trygv Lie to weed out ol the TJ.N. American Communist and those who wont aay whether they have been Reds. Lie's panel of three international Jurists said In a M-pae opinion that under stall regulations and U. B. laws the secretary-general can and should: 1. Fire any U.N. staff employe who Is an active member ol the American Communist party. 2. Fire any employe accused of espionage, subversion or member ship in an organisation declared subversive who refuses to answer questions by a U. 6. grand jury or Senate subcommittee on ihe grounds that his answer might In criminate him. Either situation, the jurists said, Is incompatible with being an in ternational civil servant in the employ of the U.N. The Jurists art William de Witt Mitchell, New York lawyer and U. 8. attorney general under Presi. dent Hoover; Sir Edwin Herbert, leading London attorney prominent in banking and insurance circles, and Paul Veldekens, professor of law at the Catholic University of Louvaln, Belgium, and president of the Belgian Supreme Court defense lawyers. Their opinion was made public last night as the McCarran Senate subcommittee on internal security prepared to resume today Its hear ings in New York on communism In the U.N. A specialised agency of the world organisation, the In ternational Monetary Fund, was to be under scrutiny. The trio's findings are not bind ing on Lie but are expected to have a strong bearing on future U.N. policy toward Communists on the Btall. Lie witnneia immeaisie com ment. The three lawyer said they were unanimous in their conclusions, reached In conferencea during the past two weeks. These were some of their other findings: No government can order the U.N. secretary general around. He does not have to appear before any group to answer questions. He must keep the records of the U.N. conltdential. Tn secretary general is respon sible for his staff and its makeup. Any government that has charges against any employe should give the secretary general full infor mation. The secretary general must act on whatever information he gets, with the aid of a confiden tial loyalty review board. If the information is not complete, the secretary general can't be criti. circd for his final action. The secretary general can fire anybody he can prove has been engaged in activities disloyal to the host countrv in this case, the U. S. or thinks might be dl!yal. And he should use that standard n hiring any new employes, the Jurists found. The U.N. will have to continue to employ Communists from Com munist countries and the American public will have to be resigned to that fact. Loyalty to their regime is part of the qualification of em ployers hired from Communist countries on U.N. national staff quotas. But such employes are resident in the U. S are protected by as well as subject to U. S. laws, and must not as guests in this country engage in anv activity subversive to it. Non-Reds sent by the U.N. to Communist countries must conduct themselves the same way. Lie asked th lent panel to make Its study after a number of American member of the Becre tarlat were questioned by th Mc Carran subcommittee- and mem bers of the croup attacked the U.N. for allegedly harboring: .. U. . 8. Communists. Vandals Mutilate Churches TONKA WA. Okla. W A State Crime Bureau agent and Baptist minister agreed today they do not believe the group which broke into five churches last week end. muti lating the Interiors of some and burning outers, was just a ouncn of prankish youngsters. Instead, they hinted it might be the work of a subversive group or possibly a deranged mind. On th wall of one of the churches the penciled words "Go to bell" were scribbled grotesquely. Ministers and aroused towns people In this city of 3.643, aided by state authorities, mapped plans to nab th vandals in the event of another raid. Guards were placed in churches in this and neighboring cities. "We've got to catch them," said Crime Bureau Agent Sid Wilson. "We want to save other churches in this are from the same treat menu" , American flags. Bibles, and Tell, gious furniture appeared to be the prime targets of the vandals. The Rev. J. M. Gaskin of the Baptist Church theorised: "The only motive. We believe. Is s subversive action aimed prima rily at the flag of the United states, the Bible and the church." Father J. Robert Benshaw of the Catholic Church, the most badly damaged of the five, revealed there was a fire two weeks ago under similar conditions. He said damage to his church from both fires would reach the $5,000 mark. Previous estimates put damage to all buildings at nearly S3.000. The Catholic and Methodist Churches were set ablaze Satur day, and while they bur.d, the interior of the Baptist Church was mutilated. Friday, the Christian and Presbyterian Churches re ceived the same treatment, but no fires were set exrept to American flags on their staffs.
