Thomas to Name Board
To Review Landy Case
Navy Secretary Thomas had
the case of Eugene W. Landy
under active consideration today
and planned to name a special
board this week to reconsider a
previous departmental refusal to
give him a Naval Reserve com
mission.
Mr. Landy. who was gradu
ated with scholastic honors from
Landy Probers
Contact Mother
BRADLEY BEACH. N. J.. Aug.
11 (^P).—Mrs. Deborah Landy.
says she has been contacted by
the House Un-American Astivi- :
ties Committee, but that she de
clined to give anv Information
about communism because she
wants first to clear up her son s
case.
She is the mother of 21-year
old Eugene Landy, the honor
Merchant Marine Academy
graduate who was denied a Na
val reserve commission, report
edly on security grounds because
his mother had been a Commu
nist.
Mr. Landy’s oise is being re
viewed by the Navy.
At her home here last night,
Mrs. Landy said she received a
telephone call earlier from a
woman investigator for the
committee who identified herself
as Mrs. Dolores Scotti.
Mrs. who has acknowl- j
edged she was a Communist
Party member during World
War n, said:
“This young woman wants to
find out if I have any informa- j
tion of value. I told her ‘no,’J
but she wants to see me person
ally.”
"She probably wants to know
who recruited me or something
like that.” or about dues or ac
tivities ” the 54-year-old mother
said. “I told her there was no
conspiracy, no activities that
would interest her.”
Eventually, Mrs. Landy went
on, she probably will talk to
the investigator, but what comes
first is clearing up the case of
her son’s CQmmission.
In Washington earlier in the
day, a spokesman for the com
mittee said Mrs. Landy might be
called for testimony, but that
this would depend on the amount
of information she has to offer.
The spokesman added that the
committee was “not going to do
anything which might affect
the outcome" of Mr. Landy's
case. The youth currently is
serving as a seaman aboard a
merchant ship which is on a 30-
day cruise.
Soviet Visitors to Tour
Ford Rouge Plant Today
By TOM WHITNEY
Associated Prea* Bt«ff Writer
DETROIT, Aug. 11—The three
members of the Soviet farm dele
gation visiting here set out this
morning to visit the giant Ford
Rouge plant at Dearborn.
Ford officials planned to show
Ithem the factory foundry, the
final assembly line, the plant
'steel operations, and then take
them to the Dearborn engine
plant cafeteria. After lunch
they were to see the Dearborn
engine plant. *,
In the evening they are
scheduled to leave by plane for
Chicago to rejoin there eight
other members of their group
who will fly from Minneapolis to
Chicago in the late afternoon.
Altogether there are 12 Soviet
farm leaders in the group.
The twelfth—Alexander Tup
ulnikov, who got himself photo
graphed several days ago being
kissed by two ice skating stars
at once—was in Washington.
The Soviet delegation leader.
Vladimir Matskevich, said Mr.
Tulupnikov went to the Soviet
Embassy there to look after some
business affairs of the delega
tion. He's expected to join the
group in Chicago Sunday.
Mr. Matskevich apparently ac
cepted with alacrity an invita
tion to Dearborn in part because
of the fascination which the

the Merchant Marine Academy
at Kings Point, Long Island,
was told on the same day that
he would not be given a com
. mission because his mother is
1 a former Communist.
He now is on a 30-day cruise
as a seaman aboard an oil
tanker. But the Navy said his
: absence would not bring any de
lay in appointment of the spe
cial board.
Directive by Secretary
Presumably his rejection by
unanimous action of the Board
of Officers was due to precise
interpretation of Defense Sec
retary Wilson’s 1954 directive
regarding a candidate associated
with a person who has had at
;any time any Communist con
nections.
Mrs. Landy was a World War
II Communist Party member.
Her son persuaded her in 1948
to terminate her membership.
The directive under which it
appears young Landy was barred
from the commission was issued
April 7. 1954.
It represented a long consid
ered departmental effort to keep
pace with agitation in Congress
and elsewhere to make certain
that nobody with the remotest
Red affiliations should get into
governmental service, especially
the armed services.
The Directive
The key words in the docu
ment's definition of criteria to
determine who is a "security’’
;peril are these:
j "Sympathetic association with
a member of an organization
which is totalitarian. • fascists.
Communist or subversive, or
which has adopted a policy . . .
approving ... acts of violence to
deny other persons their rights
under the Constitution, or which
seeks to alter the form of gov
ernment of the United States by
unconstitutional means.
“Currently maintaining a closa
continuing association with a
person who has engaged in activ
ities or associations of the type
referred to ... if the individual
lives at the same address or fre
quently visits or frequently com
i municates with such person."
There is no doubt that the
wording of the directive is ex
plicit. It suggests no exception
1 whatever, and it is the exact let
• ter of these sections which naval
i authorities followed in rejecting
: Mr. Landy's application for a
; commission.
When Mr. Landy first publicly
i disclosed that the Navy had
i turned him down, he pointed out
. that Naval intelligence officers
i had noted the provision in con
s versations with him. However,
t he contended the Navy should
• use some "common sense” in
interpreting the regulations.
jname of Henry Ford has long
'had for Russians. There are
few Soviet citizens who have
not heard the name of Mr. Ford.
The Soviet delegates apparent
ly were undisturbed by a dem
onstration which consisted of a
small group of cars driven by
Ukrainian Nationalists with
anti-Soviet banners on them in
front of their Detroit hotel last
night. Leade/s of the demon
stration said they planned to try
to speak to the members of th«
Soviet delegation.
The Soviet delegates did not
see the demonstration. They
were out sight-seeing and eating
and apparently missed it entire
ly. When told about it they
said they had no comment.
This was the second Ukrainian
Nationalist demonstration
against the Soviet delegates. The
first took place in Minneapolia
Sunday. It also was peaceful
and orderly.
Michael Duzyj, who said he is
a draftsman and employed by
Chrysler, claimed to be the
leader of the Ukrainians. He said
he is the president of the local
branch of an Ukrainian Nation
alist organization, the Ukrainian
Congress Committee.
In a statement he said his
group does not believe the Rus
sian delegates are farmers nor
that what they learn here will
be used for the good of Ukrain
ian farmers. He said their pur
pose in coming is to "break th«
hopes of enslaved nations" for
liberation.
The Soviet farm chiefs include,
besides Mr. Matskevich, the dep
uty minister of the farm equip
ment and tractor industry of
the USSR. Alexander Yezhevsky,
and the head of a big farm ma
chinery and tractor station. Ni
kolai Bogach. They went “win
dow shopping" along one of De
troit's downtown streets last
night. '
They had their dinner late in
the evening at a smorgasbord
restaurant.
