JOINT JUDICIARY'S "secrecy" policy has
started the organization on the road
backward.
A product of recent years, Judiciary ap-
peared to have reached full maturity at
the beginning of the school year. The
young struggling years were behind and
It no longer needed the aid and coopera-
tion of other groups to stand on its own.
Now, however, Judiciary appears to be
heading in the other direction. It is los-
ing the respect and confidence of those
who have worked with it and those who
have lent support in past years.1
The ill advised secrecy policy on group
discipline cases, which was adopted at the
beginning of the senirester is beginning to
make its effects felt. By refusing to make
public the names of groups involved, the
circumstances and penalties involved at
the time discipline is undertaken by Judi-
ciary, the campus judicial body is causing
embarassment for itself and the University.
More important, it is causing the o-ganiza-
tio to lose respect of the student body.
The picture Is thrown in bold focus fol-
lowing the violation of University regula-
tions by Delta Kappa Epsilon fraternity.
Deke spokesmen claim the theft of two,
water pitchers from the American Legion
Memorial Home was responsible for a $1,000
fine and the placing of a resident advisor in
the fraternity house. Past misdeeds were cit-
ed as a reason for the severity of the penalty.
Judiciary members, rather than clear
the situation up with a statement as to
the real nature of the circumstances be-
hind the fine, have left themselves open
for criticism from all quarters by refusing
to comment. To all who have read the
news stories of the incident and heard
radio accounts, the Joint Judiciary at
the University of Michigan appears to be
a most unjust organization. If a frater-
nity can be fined $1,000 for the theft of
two water pitchers by four members of
the fraternity, the student body at the
University needs some other organization
to judge student misconduct.
Because of its short sighted, naive public,
information policy, Joint Judiciary is in
danger of losing the confidence of the stu-
dent body. Similar cases will arise in the
future. Rumor, half-truths and falsehoods
circulate rapidly following penalties on
house groups. Only by making public the
facts at the time action is taken can Judi-
ciary dispell misinformation. Judiciary
must reconsider its policy stand. It must ,
come forward with clarification of the Deke
case. It must begin to act again in a- res-
ponsible fashion.
A Cut-Bach
To International Understanding
' Ya"Thinking About My Security Or Yours?"
!I
JUST AT THE time that understanding
of foreign peoples and countries is most
needed throughout the world, Congressional
budget-cutters have hindered one of the
best means for promoting such understand-
ing.
The Fulbright Scholarship funds, which
enable students from the United States
to live and study for nearly a year's time
in any one of a multitude of foreign coun-
tries, and which bring hundreds of for-
eign students to this country for gradu-
ate work, have been cut approximately
in half by Congress. The number of Am-
erican students who will be able to study
abroad in future years will come to about
one-fourth of the present total, because
of the way in which Congress legislated
the reductions.
Curiously, while the United States is mtft
proudly extolling its position, both here and,
abroad, as the Enlightened Leader of the
Free Western World, it has seriously cur-
tailed one of the most effective means of
securing future informed ileadership
throughout the world.
Hopefully another Congress, which does
not so openly stand against educated "egg-
head" leaders, will restore the cuts made
by the present session and put the Fulbright
Scholarship program back on its feet.

THERE IS A fundamental .rule of a free
press that when a case is in the courts,
the proceedings may be reported but all
comment, whether direct or indirect, must
be withheld. Indeed, to comment on a case
which is being tried is to be in spirit and,
depending on the usages of the jurisdiction,
literally in contempt of court.
The charges brought against Dr. Op-
penheimer, on which the Gray-Morgan-
Evans Board is. now sitting, are of a very
great-indeed they approach a capital--
gravity. He must answer to "allegations
which, until disproved, raise questions as
to your veracity, conduct, and even your
loyalty."
What is alleged is not bad judgment or
youthful indiscretion but acts which, if
they have been committed, are very serious
crimes. Now if these allegations were be-
ing tried and determined in the- judicial
system of the country, the journalistic rule
of no comment would surely apply. But the
fact is that they are not being tried in the
judicial system. They are being tried be-
fore an administrative tribunal.
Because of that I believe that public com-
ment is justified, and, in my view, required
at this point.
The point which I wish to make does
not reflect in any way on those who now
have the case under trial-that is to say
on the Board of which Mr. Gordon Gray
is chairman, on the Atomic Energy Com-
mission, of which Admiral Strauss is
chairman, and on the Joint Committee
of Congress, of which Rep. Sterling Cole
is the chairman and Sen. Hickenlooper
the ranking member from the Senate.
The point which has to be raised is that
they are trying a case in which enormous
consequences depend upon the conclusive-
ness of their judgment on issues-veracity
and loyalty-which can be determined fin.
ally only by the courts.
THE ALLEGATIONS require a conclusive
verdict. Either Dr. Oppenheimer has
lied, or the charge that he has lied is false.
Either heahas beendisloyal orthe charge
that he has been disloyal is false. There is
nothing in between guilt and innocence on
these two allegations.
Lying and disloyalty are not matters of
degree. They are not matters on which
there can be differences of opinion. The
evidence on which the allegations oef ly
ing and disloyalty are based can be prov-
ed or disproved.
The paramount question at this point is
whether the issues can' be judged with that
finality by administrative tribunals and
administrative agencies.
Finality of judgment depends not only
upon the thoroughness, the penetration, the
judiciousness, and the independence of
the board, the commission, and the Con-
gressional committee. It depends also on
whether the public will accept their find-
ings as conclusive and final. This is a case
which has to be judged now,, not left un-
settled and to be dragged about from one
tribunal to another and from one Congres-
sional committee to another.
This would mean, it seems to me, that
there should be a concerted effort by
the prosecutors and by the defense to
bring the issues of veracity and loyalty
before the courts. Certainly that should
be their object if there is any issue which'
cannot be disposed of conclusively and
in effect unanimously by the administra-
tive tribunal which is now trying the case.
by the Atomic Energy Commission and
by the Joint Committee.
The case is one in which the verdict must
be conviction or acquittal of very serious
crimes. It is imperative that when the ver-
dict is reached, it shall be final.
It ought to be unnecessary for us to re-
mind ourselves what enormous consequences
will flow from this case. There is at stake
the life and the work of a man-a man who
has performed historic service and is of the
greatest eminence in the highest realms of
science.
There is put to the test the capacity of
our institutions to protect the innocent
and to punish the guilty. We cannot af-
ford to fail in that test. We shall have
failed in it unless the judgment that is
reached is conclusive, unless the judgment
is one that no reasonable and disinter-
ested man in the civilized world can
question.
To get a verdict of this kind it may not
be enough to rely alone upon the new and
little tested procedure of administrative in-
quiry. We should have it in mind from the
beginning that it' may also be necessary to
subject the verdict to the judicial process.

WASHINGTON
MERRY-GO-IIOUN I
WITH DREW PEARSON
W ASHINGTON-It is no secret that Joe McCarthy has been nursing
S as a trump card the charge that Communists held up production
of the hydrogen bomb and that Dr. J. Robert Oppenheimer, onetime
head of Los Alamos, was responsible. Joe had planned to spring this
charge in his Texas speech April 21 so its headlines would blanket the
newspapers next day when the Senate probe of the McCarthy-Cohn-
Army fracas begins.
It has also been no secret that the H-bomb was delayed-not
18 months as Joe alleged-but for about three months. And the
story of the delay was published in this column on Jan. 23, 1950,
before Joe made any of his charges about Communism in govern-
ment.
The backstage story did not involve Communistic motives, but, as E
chairman Sterling Cole of the joint Atomic Energy Committee, a Re-
publican, has stated, honest differences of opiniin.
Four years have passed since the question of whether or not th#
U.S.A. should build the hydrogen bomb was beaten by the Truman
cabinet, and during that time many people have forgotten the doubts
and misgivings of that period. They have also forgotten how Henry
L. Stimson, a Republican who served in the cabinets of Taft anda
Hoover, proposed to Truman that the United States share the secret
of the atomic bomb with Russia. Elder statesman Stimson, no traitor
to his country, was overruled by Truman, but he sincerely believed at'
that time, 1945, that we could still get along with Russia and should+
share our most precious secret.
BACKSTAGE STORY
H ERE ARE EXCERPTS from the story of the hydrogen-bomb de-
bate, as recorded in this column when the battle was hot, Jan. 23,j
1950, four years before McCarthy decided to dig it up as a national
issue:
"At a secret meeting with General Bradley, atomic energy
chairman Lilienthal made a last-ditch, emotional plea against the
hydrogen bomb. In effect, he said: 'We must exhaust every means
of reaching an agreement with Russia to outlaw atomic warfare
before we make this bomb. We should appeal over the heads of
the Kremlin to the Russian people. They will force Stalin to come
to terms.

GENTLEMAN'S AGREEMENT, with
Gregory Peck and Dorothy McGuire,
JUST AT THE END of World War II, the
Hollywood movie studios underwent some-
thing like a small Renaissance. There was
a break in the steady output of mediocre,
reliable films assuring a mediocre, reliable
audience that all was for the. best in this
best of all possible worlds. There was an
attempt to face up honestly to some of the
immediate problems. Some of these pic-
tures, like The Best Years Of Our Lives,
succeeded completely. Not only did they
get their material from the troubled society
around them, but they turned it into imag-
inative, exciting films. Others, like Gentle-
man's Agreement, although they rely some-
times on shopworn dramatic and film tech-
niques, still have the excitement of dealing
with fresh, important ideas.
The problem in Gentleman's Agreement
is anti-Semiticism. It is treated in its
most widespread form: in the intelligent
liberal who says that some of his best
friends are Jews, but who goes along with
the restricted hotels and residential areas
because one man's opinion doesn't mean
much, after all. The attitude and the
type have become a cliche, but they are
not less real and vicious for that.
Gregory Peck plays a writer for a big,
liberal magazine, assigned to do a series on
anti-Semitism. He decides to pass for Jew-
ish himself, and make the series autobio-
graphical. He gets more than he bargained
for: his sensitive, enlightened fiance, Dor-
othy McGuire, in the name of-good breed-
ing and good taste, almost abandons him
to his ruthless honesty. But probably the
weakest poinc in the picture is Miss Mc-
Guire's convresion to genuine tolerance. It
is an eleventh hour affair, after she devel-
oped in the opposite direction all through
the rest of the movie. Occasionally, too, the
picture is weakened when it philosophizes
about tolerance when it should be drama-
tizing it. For the most part, though, it is an
exciting and honest movie.

OPERETTA-Gilbert and
directed by Jerry Bilik:
and "Thespis."
Sullivan Society
"The Sorcerer"
LAST NIGHT'S performance featured the
world premier of "Thespis," which was
the first operetta on which Gilbert and Sul-
livan collaborated, but to which the original
Sullivan score has been lost. The enterpris-
ing Mr. Bilik has therefore.composed a new
score in the style of Sullivan, and has done
so with almost unbelievable success. It is
no exaggeration to say that the new score
has captured the same delightfully nonsen-
sical flavor that we find in the best of Sul-
livan's music. The whole score is full of
tunes with exactly the catchiness that their
subject demands, it is grateful for the sing-
ers, and the orchestration is deft and witty.
I can see no reason for this work to die
with the performances of this weekend. It
could surely hold the stage with the G&S
operettas. Gilbert's book is by no means the
potboiler one might be led to expect. The
ending is somewhat anticlimactic, but the
plot moves rapidly, and there are many
amusing lines.
The casts of both operettas performed

with skill and obvious relish of their parts,
and I wish I could single them all out by
name. This being impossible, the names of
the most prominent characters will have
to suffice. In "Thespis" Dave Dow, Mary
Ann Belin, Ara Berberian, and Sidney
Straight were properly dignified as the
slightly seedy Olympian gods whose places
are usurped for one year by a group of
mortals. And Jimmie Lobaugh, looking
like a combination of Captain Marvel and
the man on the flying trapeze, was very
much in evidence as Mercury, the all-too-
efficient messenger. As the mortals, Dawn
Waldron was most charming as Nicemis,
the heroine, and John Geralt handled the
role of Sparkeion with assurance and
ease. Alan Geralt handled the role of
ease. Alan Crofoot contributed his unusual
abilities as Thespis, and Joanne Wilson
was a very attractive Paphne. The chorus
did its chores well and the set was an ef-
fective one.
"The Sorcerer" was performed on the first
half of the program. The story of the extra-
ordinary carryings-on which take place on
the day of a village wedding. If the per-
formance of the Sorcerer seemed a little
slow-moving, Gilbert's book is probably
largely at fault, as it moves at a rather lies-
urely pace. Lynn Tanel made a gracious
Aline, and she sang well. Clarence Steph-
enson, as Alexis, seemed a bit stiff, but
then, so do all G&S heroes. He contributed
some very amusing moments to the show.
