Last Sept. 18, he said in a speech here disclosure that Soviet Russia had exploded a hydrogen bomb was not spurring the administra- tion into expensive new defense outlays which would result in a Plea to Congress for cancellation of the scheduled 10 per cent in- come tax reduction on Jan, 1. No such request was issued and the tax cut went through on schedule. On Oct. 20, in a speech at San Francisco, Humphrey — in the midst of much talked about a pos- sible multibillion-dollar, continent- al -air-and-electronics picket sys- tem of defense against Soviet air attack—suggested instead a “‘bal- anced but adequate” long-haul de-. fense centered on use of new = | weapons and taking advantage of technical developments. This line of thought was reflected in the budget Eisenhower presented Con- gress in January. Humphrey said in his New York speech this week that the admin- istration still expects, as it did at budget time in January, to chop five billion dollars off present Spending in the coming fiscal year.

Steel’s chairman, Benjam- in’ F. Fairless, says business has picked up a little in recent day and he looks for his company’s rate of production, which has risen to better than 70 per cent of capacity, to hold around that level for the rest of the year. Inland Steel’s chairman of the Executive Committee, Edward L. Ryerson, says his mills are operat- ing near capacity now because they’re in the Chicago region, where the market is good. He thinks the full rate will continue for a while. M , Plans to sell more oil this year than last, and make more money doing it.

Struve Hensel was smart in letting the Senate subcommittee which is investigat- ing the Army-McCarthy row dis- miss him as a principal in the case, f That relieves Hensel, 6-foot-4 as- sistant secretary of defense, from having to testify and be cross-ex- amined by Sen. McCarthy (R-Wis) unless he’s called back because of an unexpected turn in the hearings. But if Hensel had insisted on re- maining in the case and testifying as a principal, he and his attor- ney, Frederick Bryan, would in turn have been able to put Mc- Carthy through cross-examination. Now, once these hearings are over and McCarthy resumes his Tole as chairman of the subcom- mittee, he can call Hensel before him. and quiz him to his heart’s content. In that situation Hensel couldn’t cross-examine McCarthy. No one chairman. Further, if Hensel can cross-examine a committee brought his attorney along to such a session, McCarthy could forbid the lawyer to ask a single question or make a statement. He has done that before with others. And if McCarthy, when he re- sumes the chairmanship, doesn’t call Hensel up before him, report- ers are sure to ask him why in view of what he already has said about the assistant secretary. On April 21, the day before the hearings began, McCarthy issued a 46-point bill of particulars an- swering charges made against him and his staff by Secretary of “are enormous,” says Davis, : “Short of devastating nu- clear warfare, I see no serious grounds for doubting” nomic growth over the eoming that view. prices is viewed indication that flation may May expand coke tines Program spending. ne Inflation or not, many: business- men are talking a good recovery soon, By James Marlow tives behind the Army charges, He fastened on Hensel as the master- mind and said Hensel had a mo- tive: to discredit McCarthy’s eom- mittee, ) , McCarthy said his staft had been investigating Hensel himself and had “confirmed” a “serious alle- gation” against the assistant sec- retary of defense.

Four of the women were ar- rested on-assault charges, imme- diately taken to Nelson, B.C., 60 miles to the northeast, tried and sentenced to two months in jail.

A letter from Truman to Cheney was given to them for framing. Afterward they told Cheney they had lost it. They said later they thought $30,000 an astronomical figure for a Truman signature. Their attorney, Jerry Pacht, wrote the former president for advice and said Truman replied: “I do not see how I can be of any help _otyoul ewhe.Pa any help to you.
