Republicans Call Stockpiling Report 'Slanted'
WASHINGTON (UPI)-A con
troversial report on the nation's
multi-billlori-dollar stockpile pro
gram, charging cabinet-level
favoritism during the Eisenhower
administration, was branded as
"slanted" today by Republicans.
Sen. Stuart Symington, D-Mo.,
. chairman of the special stockpile
investigating subcommittee, made
' the 100-page document public
Wednesday night at a hastily
called news conference following
a series of partisan charges and
counter-charges over its contents.
Prominently featured in the re
port was a critical review of the
roles played by former Treasury
Secretary George M. Humphrey
lex-Commerce Secretary Sinclair
Weeks, and one time cabinet
member Arthur S. Flemmlng dur
ing the time he served as direc
tor of the Office of Defense Mo
bilization. But Humphrey ap
peared to be the chief target.
Charge Political Motivation
Republicans said the report was
"politically motivated," and
charged it was compiled with the
aid of personnel from President
Kennedy s office.
Symington released the report
despite a 34o-3 voting deadlock
in the subcommittee against ap
proving it. During a closed ses
sion earlier in the day Demo
cratic Sen. J. Strom Thurmond of

WHS?
South Carolina lined up with two
Republicans, Sens. J. Glenn Beall
of Maryland and Clifford P. Case
of New Jersey, in opposition.
Symington was supported by
Democratic Sens. Howard W,
Cannon of Nevada and ailing
I Clair Engle of California, who
voted oy proxy.
Ike Defends Policies
Case later issued a letter from
Eisenhower defending etockpil
policies during his eight years in
.the White House as necessary in
the national interest.
Beall charged the report was
"slanted in its approach, lacking
in objectivity and unwarranted in
the attacks H makes on former
government officials."
He said that although the pro
gram of stockpiling strategic and
critical materials for emergency
purposes began under former
President Harry S. Truman, the
report concentrated on the Eisen
hower policies of 1954-1958.
I am shocked the respected
officials of the Eisenhower ad
ministration are made the objects
of unjustified charges through the
use of distortions, omissions and
misinterpretations," Beall said.
The report said that during the
Korean War emergency "some
contractors enjoyed excessive and
unconscionable profits from their

government. This was particular
ly true in nickel." President Ken
nedy made the same charge in
the same terms when he sparked
the investigation in early 1962.
Charge Windfall Priflts
The report charged that M. A.
Hanna Co. mining and smelting
enterprises, controlled by the
Humphrey family, enjoyed wind
fall profits" of more than $17 mil
lion on a government-built nickel
plant, and also profited from pre
mium prices on its sales of nickel
to the national stockpile of stra
tegic materials.
A multi-million-dollar Calumet
& Hecla Co. copper contract rep
resented a "clear instance of spe
cial treatment and high-level offi
cial interference to the advantage
of one contractor and to the sub
stantial disadvantage of the gov
ernment," the report said.
In 1955, the report said, Hum
phrey, Weeks and Flemming, then
head of the Defense Mobilization
Office, worked out a deal favor
able, to Calumet St Hecla. .
Girls Caught
Shoplifting
Two 16-year-old girls who po
lice say went on a shoplifting
spree in three downtown stores
Wednesday afternoon were
nabbed in the third store by a
clerk.
One of the girls is a junior at
Klamath Union High School and
the other, officers said, is mar
ried. Included in their loot were un
derwear, a dress, shampoo, hair
color and other cosmetics.
They were arrested in Wool
worth's Store alter being held
by a clerk. Later, they admitted
shoplifting in the Sears store and
Payless Drugs.
The girls said they stole some
underwear in Sears, then moved
to Payless where they stole the
cosmetics. They had taken a dress
and other underwear in Wool-
worth's when they were caught.

Dr. Arthur S. Flemming following

purchases and sales of strategic
metals and materials for the $8.9
billion stockpiles while he wash

VATICAN CITY (UPI - Pope
Paul VI celebrated his 66th birth

a pontifical reign marked by
promises of dramatic change in

northern Italy, first appeared in
the white robes of the spiritual
leader of the world's Roman
Catholics on the balcony of St.
Peter's Basilica three months and
five days ago.
Still considered a "young"
Pope, Paul's actions have
shown his determination to lead
the church into the space age of
the 20th century.
sor, Pope John , XXIII, became
Pope just before his 77th year.
In the early days of his pontifi
cate, Pope Paul promised to con
tinue the Ecumenical Council

He also pledged to continue
John's policies, above all his bat
tle for world peace and to make
