Indochina McCarthy-Army N h ll1 Witnesses Balk on First I Dirksen Talks of Holding Testimon y To McCarthy-Stevens Exchanges of Detroit Hearings By The Associated Press WASHINGTON-Sen. Everett M. Dirksen (R-Ill.) said yester- day "serious consideration" is being given to limiting further testi- mony in the McCarthy-Pentagon hearings to Secretary of the Army Robert T. Stevens and Sen. Joseph McCarthy (R-Wis.) Dirksen said he sponsored a motion adopted at a closed meeting of the Senate investigating committee to have counsel fol- all inter- ested parties canvass methods of speeding up the hearings. ONE OF THE proposals to be studied, the Illinois senator said, was suggested by Joseph N. Welch, counsel to the Army side in the dis- putes. This calls for paring the testimony to the two chief contestants. Yesterday's speed-it-up meeting was held after John G. Adams, Army counsel, took the stand briefly for the first time and sharply debated with Mc- Carthy the meaning of a press SIMILAR proposals have led to Senate fililbusters in the past on civil rights issues such as the ques- Inonli-s s tion of setting up a fair employ- mert practices commission with authority to crack down on cases Set f r u authoity t f ! l k E i t 4 World News Roundup release. : of racial discrimination.

Another amendment likely to produce searching debate is one on "states' rights" sponsored by Sen. Goldwater (R-Ariz.) . It was unclear from floor discus- sion of Goldwater's amendment and from a subsequent interview with the Arizona senator just how far states would be permitted to go under his proposal. a lk-Al ff -ML- lq w a/ a a/ GENEVA-The antagonists in the bitter jungle war of Indochinaj probably will face each other across a Geneva conference table within the next three days, it wasI believed yesterday.

Kit Clardy (R-Mich.), chairman of a subcommittee of the Hiouse Un-American Activities Com- mittee.) By JIM DYGERT A curious duo of adjectives, per- sonable and fiery, sums up the im- pressions one gets after talkingJ to the key figure in the highly con-i troversial Detroit hearings, Rep. Kit Cardy. As chairman of the House un- American activities subcommittee, the Lansing Republican takes his$ job seriously. But that doesn't pre- vent him from enjoying a chuckle over some of the ruckus his inves- tigations have touched off. HIS JOB, as he sees it, is to ex-, pose Communism as the menace it! is, "wherever we can." The fact that some Communists are in ed- Sucation, the clergy, labor unions, or government is of secondary im- portance. "The main thing is that. they are Communists and must be exposed," he insists. "Why, even my own profes-} sion is infiltrated," he says with . disappointment, "Look at the5 Lawyers' Guild." But he dismiss- es it with a shrug and a smile, as if there were plenty of time to investigate the lawyers. The whole problem of Commu-! nism is the most crucial faced by, the United States today, he thinks. And the way to solve it is to make! the public aware of the danger, which his and other investigation' committees are doing. "The investigating committees have two main functions. And1 they are co-equal in importance," he explains, running a hand through his thick grey hair. "We are interested in getting informa- tion so that Congress can legislate properly against Communism, and' in making the public aware of the danger." - * * * City Council Hits Parking, ZBT Zoning two Wayne Professors Face Ouster Bill Of Rights Invoked Often By LEE MARKS special To The Daily DETROIT-A continued invok&- tion of the First and Fifth Amend- ments characterized the opening day of the House Un-American Activities Committee hearings in Detroit yesterday.

Carr of Mc- Carthy's staff, and Adams and Asst. Secretary of Defense H. Struve Hensel on the Pentagon side. It was evident, however, that various methods of shortening the hearings were under considera- tion. A further closed meeting was called for 8 a.m. today for a pro- gress report on the search for a speedup. * * * SPECIAL Counsel Ray H. Jen- kins told newsmen after Monday night's meeting that one possibil- ity would be to eliminate Hensel as a principal in the proceedings. "It could be," Jenkins said. Hensel is a late starter in the dispute. He was named a prin- cipal just befor ethe hearings began April 22. Jenkins also was asked if the i S 1 , i ", c t i elimination of McCarthy was a possibility. "I'd rather not answer that," Jenkins replied. McirCt.h h-, l .t. dd Edward Shaffer, Grad., has re- tained the services of Loren W. Campbell to act as his attorney if he is called to testify before the sub-committee of the House Un- American Activities Committee May 10 in Lansing, it was learned yesterday. Campbell is a former delegate to the State Convention of the Re- publican Party and has previously run in the party primaries for of- fice in Superior Township. * * * BEFORE TAKING Shaffer's case, Campbell said, "I thought about it a good deal and decided to take it as I would any other case with a retainers fee." . Campbell said that during the course of the hearings he would have no opportunity for rebuttal or cross-examination under com- mittee ground rules but indicat- ed if Shaffer refused to answer questions the 5th Amendment might be invoked in his defense. "The 5th Amendment was put in the Constitution for a purpose." Campbell said. "It is an unfor- tunate thing that the public feels the use of the Amendment implies a witness is guilty of somethingfl. This is prejudgement." Although Shaffer has been sub- poenaed to appar before the Con- gressional committee currently looking into Communist activity in labor unions and educational institutions in the State there is no guarantee he will be called to testify. A second University student sub- poenaed to appear before the Con-: gressional group headed by Rep. Kit Clardy (R-Mich.), Myron Sharpe, Grad., has also secured an attorney. The identity of his lawyer has not yet been revealed.' S now!! It's time to put the linings back in the overcoats.
