From the witness chair, Secre- tary Stevens said the Army be- lieves the hearings should continue in public and that “all the facts” should be put on the table. Stevens said he thought the com- mittee and the public should get a chance to see the witnesses on the stand, just as he has heen sub- jected to 18 days of public ques- Dirken’s propogal would suspend the public hearings after Sen. Mc- Carthy testified, and they possibly would not be resumed. Main Differences These were the main differences from an earlier Dirksen proposal: 1. Once the public hearings were suspended, there would be closed pasribes for a ab, witnesses he principals to the dispute in- sisted should be heard. Transcripts m.|o the closed door testimony ‘m, Would be made public. 2, With suspension of the public hearings, Sen. McCarthy would be freed to resume his own hearings on Communists in the government but with the restriction that he could not look into military instal- laions or personnel. By present rules, McCarthy is restrained from conducting his own investigations pending the conclu- sion of the inquiry into his row with Army officials. Chairman Mundt (R-SD) had or- dered an hour’s delay to give Dirksen time to work over his plan. Today's Sessions The committee—except for Dirk- sen—gathered in the hearing room at 9:30 a.m,, the hour set for the session to resume. Mundt then announced Dirksen was revising his plan and said he would not call the committee to order until 10:30. Sen. McClellan (D Ark) pro- tested and Sen. Symington (D-Mo) moved to call witnesses for testi- mony, But Mundt ruled that he had not convened the subcommittee and rapped his gavel to announce the hour's delay. ° + SOUTH FLOIIOA'S| FINEST The four Spanish Officers will | fi complete their tour of U.
