Apply OR A i Oak Ridge Director Denies That 40% of Scientists Have Quit By th« Associated Pross OAK RIDGE, Tenn.. Sept. 15. —A report that 40 per cent of the senior scientists at an atomic lab oratory here have resigned in recent months because of possible "smear” tactics was denied yesterday by the plant's executive director. The Oak Ridge Association of En gineers and Scientists made the es timate of the resignations and said they were caused by “the feeling that at any time atomic scientists may be attacked on flimsy or un substantiated grounds.” C. N. Rucker, executive director of the Oak Ridge National Labora tory. said the association's estimate did not jibe with plant reedrds. "I have checked our records and I find that of a normal employ ment of 500 technical personnel, we have had a net loss of about 15 persons in the past year," he said. Mr. Rucker added that the "pic ture is not quite as alarming as the association's statement would ap pear.” The association's statement was issued by Ray W. Stoughton, chair man of its Executive Committee. Scientists List 76 Victims Of Unfair Loyalty Procedures CHICAGO, Sept. 15 <>¥»).—At least 76 persons, including 56 scientists, have been victims of “allegedly un fair clearance procedures’’ involving loyalty, a committee of scientists said today it had been informed. The report was made in the Bul letin of the Atomic Scientists by the Committee on Secrecy and Clear ance of the Federation of American Scientists. The committee mailed a general request to members of the federa tion last November, asking informa tion on any cases known to them involving allegedly unfair clearance procedures. The committee said: “In general it is difficult to obtain such information. If an individual is denied clearance he -hesitates to inform even his friends because of the implied reflection on his char acter. however unwarranted the clearance denial may be. Therefore, the response to our request prob ably represents a small fraction of the total number of cases.” Some Cases Published. Without identifying the persons involved, the committee published a selected number of individual cases in detail. It said the facts published were taken directly from the letters received, but that the committee had no way of checking the veracity of each letter. The law requires that personnel be cleared by Government agencies on the question of loyalty before they can work on projects connected with atomic research and other secret work. Most of the letters published con tended that the scientists left regu lar jobs to take up secret work after being advised that they had been cleared. Subsequently, they said, they were told their clearance was only temporary and they were asked to resign. Some contended they were not able to learn the rea sons why they were not cleared or the charges placed against them. One Procedure Explained. • In Washington the Atomic Energy Commission pointed out that, the article deals with the whole Government and not merely atomic research. • William A. Higinbotham. vice chairman of the Federation of American Scientists, explained to ft '..reporter in Washington that the purpose of the report was "not to defend individuals against Charges, but rather to obtain fair hearings.” • Mr. Higinbotham added: “The procedure now used by the Atom ic Energy Commission includes written presentation of charges, the opportunity for hearings and appeals. Some other Govern ment agencies have consistently refused to present charges. The Atomic Energy Commission is making an honest effort to solve this problem with due regard for the rights and reputations of the people involved.”! Probe • Continued Prom First Page.l target of the subcommittee’s dis pleasure on this score. The com mittee has been complaining bit terly against the “new Communist tactic” of using the self-incrimina tion provision of the Constitution to refuse to answer questions. Action Sought Against Peters. Contempt action already has been recommended by a subcommittee in the case of J. V. Peters, described by other witnesses as the brains of the Communist underground, who refused to answer questions in New York. In announcing the subcommittee's decision in the Nelson case, Mr. Thomas said contempt action also would be recommended in the cases of William Rosen and his attorney, Maurice Braverman of Baltimore. Rosen, described by the commit tee as the man whose name ap peared on a transfer of title of Alger Hiss' 1929 Ford, refused to answer questions during two closed session appearances. The car once owned by Mr. Hiss, a former State Department official, has figured prominently in the committee's efforts to resolve the controversy between Mr. Hiss and Whittaker Chambers, confessed for mer Communist who has accused Mr. Hiss of being a leader in a prewar Communist underground here. Mr. Hiss has denied the charge. The committee shifted from its atomic espionage case yesterday long enough to take testimony in connection with its previous hear ings growing out of the stories told by ■ Mr. Chambers and an avowed I r , * MAHARAJAH VISITS CAPITOL—The Maharajah of Jaipur and the Maharani saw the Capitol today in the course of a tour of Washington sights.

Bentley. Mr. Thomas said the witness questioned in connection with the Bentley-Chambers case was Dr. Joseph M. GiHman of Hartsdale, N. Y. . Dr. Gillman told reporters he left the Government last year after a dozen years of Government service. His last job, he said, was with the War Assets Administration. An economist, he is now writing a book. To reporters, Dr. Gillman said he was not a Communist. Dr. Gillman also told newsmen that he knew Nathan Gregory Sil vermaster, former WAA official de scribed by Miss Bentley as head of a wartime espionage ring of Gov ernment employes. The cormrtlttee also recalled Vic toria Stone of New York, described by Mfr. Thomas as a friend of Arthur Adams. The Canadian-born Adams has been identified by Mr. Thomas as a Soviet agent active in the Canadian atomic espionage ring. Mr. Thomas said Adams also was a “key figure" in atomic espionage in the United States and had fled the country. After Miss Stone’s Second com mittee appearance. Mr. Thomas said said she was questioned further on the Adams case, which included persons besides Adams. Denies Knowing Nelson. While she was testifying, the com mittee called in Nelson to ask if she knew him. Nelson's attorney, Sam uel H. Block of New York, said she told the committee she did not know neison. The committee also reported it had received ‘very Important testi mony'’ from Dr. Martin D. Kamen. a scientist dropped from the atom bomb project during the war who denied he was ever a Communist or had divulged any atomic secrets. Dr. Kamen told reporters before the session that he would not talk un less he could do so at a public hear ing. but he changed his mind when he faced the committee. Dr. Kamen said after the session he was asked mostly about his acquaintanceship with Gregory Kheifetz. former Soviet vice consul in San Francisco. Nelson Asked About Kheifetz. Nelson told reporters he, too. ^vas asked about Kheifetz but refused to answer on grounds he might incrim inate himself. The committee left Nelson out in the hall waiting to testify from 10 a.m. until he was finally called at 6 p.m. When the session broke up, Mr. Thomas declared: ‘Like other Communists, Nelson was very unco-operative. He re fused to answer the most pertinent many points were cleared up by her j additional testimony and that “much more progress was made in that case as a result of her testimony." He questions regarding efforts to obtain atom bomb secrets.” Nelson told reporters that from 1941 to 1945, he was a Communist Party organizer for Alameda County, I Calif., which includes Berkeley.1 home of the University of Cali fornia, One of the atomic projects was carried on at Berkeley during the war. the project from which Dr. Kamen said he was dismissed. Committee members said Nelson was born Steve Nesarosh in Yugo slovia in 1903 and came to this country in 1920. He was naturalized in 1927 and now lives in Palmer ville, P*-— Nelson issues Statement. Nelson .1*76 this statement to re porters : "I was subpoenaed before the House Committee on Un-American Activities .as one of the dramatic personae of a new, fantastic spy plot which the committee is staging to distract the American people from their real problems. Wall Street finds it easier to invent atom spy melodramas than it does to re duce the cost of living, provide housing, of establish a stable peace, because these would mean curbing monopoly profits. The entire per sonnel of the Un-American Com mittee. Republicans and Democrats alike, trip over themselves in their eagerness to serve their masters. Their efforts to implicate me, a Communist, in any way, in their hysterical charges of espionage are doomed to fail. I am not and never have been disloyal to the United States in the slightest degree. Par nell Thomas knows this. If there were the least evidence that I have ever been guilty of any unlawful act, it is obvious that I would be indicted and tried, not merely hauled up before this gathering of political pyromaniacs to provide new head lines for a sensation-hungry press. "I have stood on Constitutional principles and refused to permit the committee to Invade my democratic rights or to encroach upon a sphere which, under the Bill of Rights, is forbidden to it. I have done so not only in defense of my own liberty, but because I consider the Thomas Rankin Committee a menace to the rights and liberties of all Ameri cans. "If the American people do not draw the line somewhere against this reactionary conspiracy, this committee will attack and destroy every progressive person and all the democratic principles which Frank lin D. Roosevelt defended and which this committee loathes."

The visitor is the Maharajah of Jaipur, ruler of some 3,000.000 people in north central India. The Maha rani. his third wife, is a younger sister of the Maharajah of Cooch Behar. Making their first visit to Wash ington, the royal couple are staying at the residence of the Indian Am bassador, Benegal Rama Rau. Like many Indian potentates, the British-educated, polo-playing Ma harajah took time off in the past from affairs of state to spend a good deal of his time in England and Eu rope. He has been in the United : States for about a week on this trip., and pla'ns to return to India via! London on September 30. This morning the couple were off on a tour of the sightseeing attrac-, !tions here. This jfternoon the Ma-, harajah was to drive to Annapolis to observe a parade there, while his i wife was to be entertained at a tea by the American Newspaper Wom en's Club. Known as one of the most pro gressive of India's rulers, the young Maharajah—he is 38—succeeded to full rule in 1931. When the Indian Union became independent of Brit ish rule in August, 1947, he quickly made his state a member. Under his rule Jaipur became a constitutional monarchy for hte first time in its history, and has had a popularlv elected cabinet since last year. The 10 000-man Army, how ever. still remains under the direct control of the Prime Minister, who U appointed by the Maharajah. Within the last year the troops furnished by the state to the Indian government have been in action in Kashmir against invading Parki stan forces. Hyderabad (Continued From First Page.) the entire northwest corner of Hyderabad, the spokesman said. He declared the Indian troops are encountering no opposition at all from civil authorities or the populace anywhere in Hyderabad. Indian troops marched in Monday morning under orders to restore order, prevent anarchy and garri son the state until a decision is reached on the future status ol Hyderabad and its relationship to India. (The United Nations Security Council has been called to meet tomorrow to study the swift march of events in Hyderabad. Nawab Moin Nawaz Jung, Hy derabad's foreign minister, ar rived in London last night on his way to Paris to back up Hydera bad's protests. He declared the Indian attack on his state was a "wanton and entirely unprovoked act of aggression.” ("I sincerely hope,” he added, “the Security Council will take immediate action to stop the ag gression and thereby avoid the communal blood bath which u sure to follow in its wake.") vA Government informant said it was wrong to use such terms as "war, invasion or enemy operation” in referring to the actions in Hyder abad. What is going on, he said, is a "mere police action on a wide scale.” U. S. Deeply Concerned Over Hyderabad Situation Seoretary of State Marshall said today that this Government is deeply concerned over the military situation in Hyderabad. The principal concern, he said, is over any fighting that disturbs peaceful negotiations as a means of settling differences. He remarked that a good many legal complications are involved in the Hyderabad situation and re fused to discuss the question of whether the United States recog nized Hyderabad as a sovereign government.

Russian writer who visit ed this country. Mr. Lucchi said the union had given a fur coat to! Mr. Ehrenberg "because it's cold over there." Gifts also were made to the secre tary of the Italian Confederation of Labor and his wife, who also were visiting in this country. Mr. Lucchi said the wife was given "a little fur coat.” The fur workers, Mr. Lucchi said, had pladged $10,000 to the campaign of the Progressive Party of Henry Wallace, and he said that most of the members probably would vote' for Mr. Wallace. Mr. Lucchi was represented at the hearing by Lee Pressman, former general counsel of the CIO who now is active in the affairs of the Progressive Party. Mr. Pressman asked the committee: for opportunity to question fur man ufacturers who have told the com mittee during the past week of the hearing that Communists not only dominate the CIO union, but also exert control over the entire in dustry. No Assurance of Answers. Chairman Schwabe told Mr. Press man he could submit questions in writing, but there would be no assur ance of answers. During five days of hearings, Com mittee Counsel John O. Graham has asked fur manufacturers and other industry spokesmen whether they are. or ever have been, Communists. Each witness has replied with a prompt negative. One former union officer testified he belonged to the Communist Party until he was ex pelled in 1934. Mr. Schwabe said this procedure has been followed to set a precedent, and the subcommittee will recom-' mend contempt citations for any witnesses who do not answer ques tions about their political sym pathies.
