Potter (R-Mich) said today he knows no way senators investigating Sen. McCarthy’s Tow with Army offi- cials could force the Wisconsin Re- Publican to take the stand if he ; Should decide to walk out. McCarthy has left in doubt the course he may follow when, hear- ings resume Monday. Potter and several other mem- bers of the Senate Investigations subcommittee expressed belief a major obstacle to continuance of the hearings had been removed by a statement from Secretary of the Army Stevens shouldering full re- sponsibility for Anmy charges against the Wisconsin senator. This followed President Eisenhower's Tefusal to modify an executive or- der against some testimony. . _McCarthy’s complaint about con- tinuing the televised hearings with a “stacked deck” prompted specu- lation in Congress that he might decline to testify Personally and call for what he has characterized as a directed verdict in his favor. McCarthy told newsmen he ‘is “at a loss on just what to: do.” The subcommittee scheduled a closed-door. meeting this afternoon. McCarthy said he will attend if be’s invited. He normally heads the group, but has stepped off for the duration of this inquiry. If he does attend the meeting, McCarthy said, he does not plan to ask then for a “directed ver- dict.” Potter said in an interview: “If the McCarthy side says. it has disproved the Army‘s case and proved its own charges through cross-examination and can’t go on, in the face of the President's order, I don’t know how the committee could force them to.” Any such action by McCarthy would be in the face of Eisen- hower’s call yesterday for testi- mony from al, the principals. — “Let the chips fall where they may” — and demands of Demo- cratic subcommittee members that all principals be heard in public sessions. The White House gave added emphasis to the President’s news conference remarks by permit- ting direct quotation of much that he had to say. ‘Brownell and top presidential ad- The President said he was “‘as-" tonished” by talk that his injunc- tion against certaim testimony would be used as an excuse for calling off the hearings, and he added: “Far from me trying to get any investigation off the track, F was merely trying . ... to keep it on the rails.” He again said he hopes the hearings will be completed quickly because they are di ing atten- tion from more impogfant matters. Stevens and Army, Counselor John G. Adams have‘accused Mc- Carthy and two aides, Roy. M. Cohn and Francis P. Carr, of bringing improper pressure on the Army for favored treatment for a former associate, Pyt, G. David McCarthy Tes with charges that Stev. and Adams used Schine as a “hostage” in an attempt to shut off am investiga- tion of alleged Communists in the Army. McCarthy told a mews confer- ence last night he had tried, but failed, to get a date with Eisen- hower “about a week before this thing exploded” in mid-March. He said he had wanted to tell Eisenhower then — sometime soon after Feb. 20 — that “I he was not getting all the facts” about the row then simmering be- tween McCarthy, Stevens and other top Army people. At his request, McCarthy said, his friend Victor Johnson tele- Phoned the White House to arrange an appointment. He said Johnson, director of the Republican Sena- torial Campaign Committee, talked to Wilton B.
