And, he said, F > % hower administration took office, m TODAY | By JAMES MARLOW WASHINGTON (#—Secretary of State Dulles has cause to wonder whether everyone in the State De- partment, besides being loyal to the country, is loyal to him. Sen. McCarthy claims to have enough information about the de- partment’s inner workings in at least one case—that of Charles E. Bohlen—to call Dulles untruthful. Because the 48-year-old Bohlen, with 24 year’s foreign experience, is one of the department’s best specialists on Russia, President Eisenhower and Dulles decided to send him to Moscow as American ambassador. Since Bohlen coutdn’t have the job unless the Senate approved, the Senate Foreign Relations Com- mittee would have to check on him first. This meant Bohlen and Dul- les would have to answer questions on Bohlen’s background and fit- ness. But for some unexplained reason, which originated before Dulles’ time as secretary, Bohien had nev- er been investigated by the FBI. Several weeks ago Dulles asked the FBI to examine Bohlen’s life. He got the report last week and discussed it with R. W. Seott Me- Leod, who is in charge of security | matters for the State Department. Dulles hired McLeod only a few weeks ago. Before that McLeod ‘had been administrative assistant to Sen. Bridges, New Hampshire Republi- can, who, with McCarthy and Sen. McCarran, Nevada Democrat, have been the main opponents to Sen- ate approval of Bohien. The FBI ‘reports all the infor- mation, good and bad, which it picks up on a person under in- vestigation. But the FBI draws no conclusions. It leaves that to a high official, like Dulles, in the depart- ment where the investigated man works. So Dulles went before the for- eign relations committee. He didn’t show the report to the members. He summarized it for them, say- ing the report contained some dero- gatory information about Bohlen. But none of it, he told the com- mittee, was of the kind that could throw doubt on Bohlen as a loyalty or security risk. After questioning Dulles for three hours, and talking with Bohlen, the committee unani- mously approved Bohlen. Dulles said that when McLeod looked over the FBI report and found the derogatory information he had told Dulles: “This is not a case which I can automatically pass because whereer there is der- ,ogatory information of this sort I think it is my duty to bring it to your attention.” Dulles told a news conference later that there was no difference of opinion, between him and Mc- Leod on Botilen and, in answer to | a question, he said McLeod did not suggest that Bohlen not be ap-/| proved. This is where McCarthy steps! into the picture. Until this point McCarthy, McCarran and Bridges had argued against Bohlen mainly because he had worked so closely with former Secretary of State |Dean Acheson and had taken part | |in the Yalta and Potsdam confer-' | ences as interpreter. McCarthy, McCarran and | Bridges are not members of the foreign relations committee, before | | which Dulles testified. After the | unanimous yote for Bohlen, McCar- | ran said Dulles had misrepresented the situation to the committee, that | McLeod, instead of not differing | with Dulles, had actually told him he “could not clear” Bohlen. McCarthy said the same thing, | adding that what Dulles had told the committee about himself and he knew what was in Bohlen's file. Since the FBI. investigation was {not made until after the Eisen- McCarthy must have meant he knew what was in Bohlen’s regular personnel file, although he didn’t \say how he knew. He went beyond this, though, by saying there were 16 pages of de- rogatory information about Boblen in the FBI report.

After a 250-mile trek back to Russian-occupied Rerlin, Guenther searched in vain for his mother.
