Matusow to Attack Justice Department
El Paso, Texas—(U.P.)—Harvey Matusow testifies again today on his claim that there is corruption in the Justice department and his own life is in danger. $ \textcircled{*} $
Mr. Matusow was on the stam for the third consecutive day yesterday in a hearing to decide if Clinton Jencks, former head of the Bayard, N. M., Independent Mine, Mill and Smelter Workers union local, should get a new trial.
Prosecutor David Harris asked Mr. Matusow why he used a book he wrote as the means of recanting anti-Communist testimony instead of telling the Justice department.
Mr. Matsuwan was the only government witness last year when Mr Jencks was sentenced to five years for falsifying a non-Communist affidavit to the National Labor Relations board.
"I believe the Justice department is corrupt and I don't trust them," Mr. Matusow, fired with anger, screamed in a high voice.
The witness said he was afraid "someone in the government will attempt to do away with me" because of the repudiated testimony against Mr. Jencks and other Americans the government has claimed are Reds.
Meanwhile, a federal grand jury that stood ready to indict Mr. Matusow if his testimony warrants, was dismissed by Judge R. E. Thomason, subject to "immediate recall" if necessary. The grand jury took testimony yesterday from Maurice Travis, former IMMSWU secretary-treasurer who resigned a month ago after he was indicted in Denver for affidavit falsification.
Mr. Matusow denied yesterday he repudiated his testimony because Albert Kahn, a New York publisher of his book, "False Witness," had given him $1,000. He said he had made his decision previously while working at the Melba theater in Dallas.
He said Mr. Kahn advanced him $250 on the book and he knew nothing about any IMMSWU authorization of $1,000 to help in sale of the book. He also denied any knowledge of a union order for 25,000 copies of the book for distribution in the United States and Canada.

Pearling, despite its glamorous reputation, is hard work that seldom brings riches. The average diver is lucky to break even after the shipowner and crew take their share of the profits. Some divers make 50 deserts a day, risking jellyfish stings and the hazards of encountering sharks. Yet the dream of wealth persists, fed by such transactions as one of 1929, when a single pearl taken in the Persian gulf was sold for $75,000.
