Un-American Quiz Doesn't Ask
For Truth, Bishop Oxnam Says
The Washington Ministerial
Union heard Methodist Bishop
G. Bromley Oxnam renew his
criticism of the House Commit
tee on Un-American Activities
yesterday and then went to the
White House, where they were
received by President Eisen
hower.
The President was presented
with a Bible by Dr. Albert P.
Shirkey, outgoing president of
the union, on behalf of the group.
Bishop Oxnam told more than
300 Washington area clergymen
in the Washington Hotel that
the House Committee on Un-
American Activities “does not
want the truth. Is it fearful that
its own incompetence will be
publicized? So it adds to in
competency the graver sin of
insincerity.”
He charged that the commit
■ tee s files have been “incompe
' tently developed, full of false
| hoods, hearsay and rumor, un
verified, and. by committee
statement, not representing a
judgment or opinion of the com
mittee, may be sent to members
j of Congress.”
Asserting that the committee
“refuses to clean up its files.” the
speaker asked, “Does it want the
truth, or is it being used by other
influences to attack men who
some destroy, not because they
are Communists, but because they
have dared condemn special priv
ilege or other un-American ac
tivities?”
Gen. Eisenhower told the min
isters he likes “militant preach
ers and chaplains.”

of my interest in your work,”
he said. “And pardon me if I
do say this: I like to see militant
preachers and chaplains.
“I so firmly believe that all
free government should be firmly
based on a religious faith, that
it seems to me no one who is
teaching moral standards or
spiritual values has any right to
do it apologetically.
“If I have ever had to quarrel

Dr. C. Leslie Glenn, rector of
St. John's Episcopal Church,
Lafayette square, was elected
president of the group.
Other officers chosen were Dr.
Seth Brooks, minister of the
Universalist National Memorial
Church, vice president: the Rev.
Herbert Baucom, pastor of Ta
koma Park Baptist Church, sec
retary, and the Rev. Philip An
stedt, pastor of Bethel Evangeli
cal and Reformed Church, Ar

Executive committee members
elected were the Revs. Frank
Blackwelder, rector of All Souls
Episcopal Church; J. Artley
Leatherman, pastor of Hamline
Methodist Church; the Rev. J.
Adrian Pfeiffer, pastor of St.
James Lutheran Church, and
Halley B. Taylor, minister of
Fifteenth Street Presbyterian
j Church. Dr. Frederick E. Reis

the Washington Federation of
Churches, is an ex-officio mem

Travelers Aid Spending
CHlCAGO.—Travelers Aid, a
unique organization founded
more than 100 years ago, gives
assistance to about 2.000,000
travelers a year. In 1952 Trav
elers Aid spent nearly $3,000,000
on its services.
Outlook Grows Dim
For Congress Action
On Top Legislation
•y th« Associated Pros*
Indications are growing that
Congress may settle this year for
less legislation than Republican
leaders and President Eisen
hower originally programmed.
Nothing official has been said,
but it appears at least highly
possible that both the Hawaiian
statehood bill and an extension
of the Reciprocal Trgde Agree
ments Act may still be on the
shelf when Congress quits for
the year.
Martin Lists ‘Must’ Bills.
Revision of the Taft-Hartley
Act also appears to be in some
jeopardy.
Following yesterday’s White
House legislative conference.
House Speaker Martin listed
both Statehood and reciprocal
trade as “must” legislation.
But considerable sentiment
was reported in the House to
let the Trade Agreements Act
expire and then write a new
law after a special commission
to study the whole question of
tariffs has reported to the
President. The President asked
Congress to authorize such a
commission. The Senate has
okayed the idea; the matter is
pending in the House.
Southerners May Fight.
Expiration would not affect
present tariff levels. It would
simply take from the President
the right to enter into new tariff
agreements with foreign na
tions.
Some Southern Senators were
reported prepared to talk at

Coronation Crowds
Walk 6-Mile Route
Queen Will Follow
■y *h« Aisociated Frau
LONDON, May 26.—The most
popular recreation in London
today was to “walk the queen's
six miles.”
It's the route through streets
and parks along which Queen
Elizabeths coronation proces
sion will pass just a week from
today, she riding splendidly in
the gold and purple state coach
drawn by eight sleek Windsor
grays.
Excitement increased as the
: fabulous day approaches, and a
| game which Londoners and
| many thousands of visitors have
| invented is to see the city just
las the queen will see it. Tens
of thousands jostle and plod
along the route, gaping at miles
of spic and span grandstands
which have converted London
into a gay and fluttering town
of color and light.
The lift to the spirits of her
majesty's subjects is noticeable.
Britishers, who have pretty
firmly established a reputation
for minding their own business,
have become effusively sociable.
Strangers talk to each other,
argue, laugh and Invite each
other to have tea.
