Key Issues' Report
6 GOP Senators Voted 'Wrong,' CIO Claims
Washington—(U.P)—The CIO has listed six Republican senators and 104 congressmen—including one Democrat up for reelection this fall—whose votes on a half-dozen "key" issues this year were "wrong."
The union also found eight Democratic senators and 76 House members—including one Republican—involved in the November elections whose votes on the same issues were "right."
These were the stand-outs in the CIO's listing made public last night which covered the votes of all members of Congress on seven issues in the Senate and six in the House.
The list was part of a pamphlet being sent to the CIO's more than 5 million members, condemning the past "Eisenhower Congress."
The CIO said that members of Congress who "fought for the public interest" came from "both parties."
Republican senators up for re-election whose votes were "wrong" according to the CIO: Andrew F. Schoeppel, Kansas; Margaret Chase Smith, Maine; Leverett Salmon, Massachusetts; Massachussetts; Guillon, Michigan; Styles Bridges, New Hampshire; and Guy Cordon, Oregon.
Democratic senators up for re-election whose votes were "right"
John Sparkman, Alabama; Paul Douglas, Illinois; Guy Gillette, Iowa; Hubert Humphrey, Minnesota; James E. Murray, Montana; Robert S. Kerr, Oklahoma; Estes Keisuer, Tennessee; and Matthew M. Neely, West Virginia.
The Republican congressman listed as having six "right" votes was Rep. Alvin E. O'Konski of Wisconsin.
Quemoy Invasion Predicted Soon
Taipel, Formosa - (U.P.) A Chinese Nationalist military spokesman predicted today the Chinese Communists will stage an amphibious invasion of Quemoy and adjacent islets within a month.
The spokesman, Yun Tien-Chia, chief of the political department, told visiting correspondents on Quemoy the Reds very likely will use patrolroopers.
He said the Nationalist air force has spotted propeller-driver planes in Foochow, 150 miles from Quemoy, and pointed out Quemoy is also within range of jet fighters from Canton and Chawch.
Pro-Red French Paper Raided
Paris — (U.P.) Security police raided the Communist-line Daily Liberation and the home of its editor today, seeking new leads to the Red spy ring that has caused France's biggest scandal since World War II.
At the same time, Interior Minister François Mitterand predicted further developments in the case, which he described as a combination of "unquestionable treason" and "degrading political exploitation."
French authorities already were seeking a fugitive ex-collaborator of the Nazis, identified only as "Monsieur Charles," who is said to have served as a go-between in the Communist espionage setup.
While his home was being combined Daily Liberation Editor Emmanueltis De La Vigere was taken to the office of his newspaper for questioning.
Liberation employed Andre Baranes, the Communist agent who was the hub of the Red spy web. He has confessed obtaining information on the decisions of the top-secret National Defense council from two high-ranking government workers and passing them on to the Reds.
Security Issue Charges 'False,' Hall Counters
Washington — (U.P.)— A feud between the Republican and Democratic chairmen crackled briskly today over the administration's record in getting rid of alleged subversives in the government.
Leonard W. Hall, the GOP chairman, charged that Democratic Chairman Stephen A. Mitchell has been guilty of making "innuendos, false charges, and half-backed attacks" on the security issue.
Mr. Mitchell challenged V i e c President Richard M. Nixon Saturday night to identify the Communists which he claims the administration has "kicked out" of government. If he can't identify them, he said, he should repudiate his statement and apologize to the public.
Mr. Hall countered last night that "better than 400 subversives" were included in a list of more than 2,400 government employees who were fired or resigned as "security risks". He said the 400 were either "subversives themselves" or persons who "associated" with subversives.
"A sad point in politics" will have been reached, Mr. Hall said, if Mr. Mitchell doesn't apologize to Vice President Nixon for calling him a "ilar." He said the vice president was a "prime mover in stopping communist infiltration and sending" Alger Hiss to jail.
Mr. Mitchell in his statement charged that Mr. Nixon's claim has not been supported by any public evidence or by any public testimony.
A "pod" of musk from the musk deer of the Orient is worth $5 in Mongolia; more in other parts of China. It is valuable in the manufacture of perfume.
Red-Fight Fund Not Misused: McCarthy
Washington—(U.P.)—Sen. Joseph R. McCarthy said last night he has never misused "one penny" given him to fight communism but that he will not make a public accounting of his finances even to fight a Senate censure.
'Not One Penny'
He also expressed the opinion that the positions President Eisenhower and the Democratic National committee take may help determine how the Senate votes next month on the Watkins committee recommendation that he be ensured.
Yanks Grilled For A-Secrets
Nuernberg, Germany—(U.P.)—Two U.S. soldiers, released by Red Czechoslovakia Saturday, said today that their red captors blindfolded and handcuffed them and questioned them day and night for more than two weeks, demanding American atomic weapons secrets.
The soldiers, Capt. Richard H. Dries of St. Albans, N.Y., and Pfc. George M. Pisk of Austin, Texas appeared at a press conference today to tell of their experience while in Communist hands.
Capt. Dries, who was promote from first lieutenant to captain while in captivity, and Pfc. Pisk, an army driver, said they were picked up by three Czech border guards near Neu-Islarn, on the West German frontier on Sept. 17, while on "a routine mission."
"I'm sure we were in German territory," the 32-year-old captain said.
He said he was dressed in civilian clothing at the time of the arrest because "I didn't have a uniform that day and we were permitted to wear civilian gear."
Specialists Study Head-Tied Twins
The twins were born Friday at St. Anne's hospital here. They are joined at the top of the skulls in a manner similar to the famed Brodie twins, who were separated in a history-making operation here in 1952.
One of the Brodie boys died. The other is living the life of a healthy three-year-old.
The Andrews twins' plight was heightened by the fact that they do not face in the same direction, as girl must lie on their sides.
Chicago — (U.P.) The parents of "beautiful" siamese girl twins, joined at the head, today delayed a decision on whether doctors should risk trying to separate them.
Their father, a 38-year-old salesman for a meat packing firm, described them as "healthy and beautiful—just like their mother."
Mrs. Andrews, 33, a striking brunette, was expected to get her first look at her daughters today. Mr. Andrews told her of their condition yesterday and said "she took it wonderfully."
A crack team of pediatricians, plastic surgeons, neurosurgeons and anesthetists were meanwhile at work trying to discover whether the six-pound Andrews twins can be separated.
The parents, Mr. and Mrs. Wilfred J. Andrews, said they wouldn't make up their minds until doctors have completed exhaustive tests to discover what the twins' chances of survival would be.
A verdict was not expected for weeks or even months. Mr. Andrews said he and his wife would "wait and see what the doctors advise" before making their fateful decision.
The doctors must find out whether the Andrews twins have a common system of nerves, blood vessels and even brains within the bony skull structures which appears to join them.
Sensor
Sam McCarthy made the statements in a television interview. It was his first public appearance since the committee filed its highly critical censure report last Monday.
Among other things, the committee said Sen, McCarthy should be censured for "contemptuously" refusing to explain his handling of anti-Communist funds either to the Senate as a whole or to an elections subcommittee that investigated his finances in 1951-52. When he was questioned about this, Sen, McCarthy said he was ready to explain his position on the spot.
The Wisconsin Republican said he doesn't know whether the Senate will or will not vote his ensure next month.
"I not only used my entire salary, I have borrowed all the money I could from friends, I went broke on this Communist fight," he declared. "and anyone, anyone who even intimates that one penny of the money I raised in fighting communism was used for any other purpose is grossly untruthful."
"If they vote politics, perhaps yes," he said. "If they look at the facts and think not about McCarthy but about the dangerous precedent being set then I would say definitely no. It's a question of what the Democratic National committee will do, a question of what President Eisenhower will do."
