Departments To Try New Economy Moves Decline To Promise Dramatic Results ••'WASHINGTON, UP — Govornmeht departments said today they will try tp meet President Eisenhower’s demand for immediate new economies but they declined to promisje any dramatic results. 3lost insisted they already have been doing their.best to cut expenses. And some indicated that slashes administered by congress left little room for additional redactions. A justice department official put it this way: “We’re already down tq the bone. If we cut any more we re going to be losing chunks of bone." Mr. Eisenhower asked ihis agency heads Tuesday to attack sex"with renewed vigor" so that government spending during the current fiscal year could be "progressively” reduced. Press Secretary James C.

Strike Threatened ' On Southwest Bell Affect Exchanges For Six States ST. LOUIS, UP — Leaders of the UIO Communications workers of America said today there was a “definite possibility” of a walkout against Southwestern Bell Telephone company, as union negotiations with other telephone systems in the midwest reached a I critical stage.

Sees No Threat In Secret Testimony Attorney Defends Government Worker WASHINGTON, UP -An attorney insisted today that "no serious” threat to national security was involved in the secret testimony a governrrient bookbfnder gave Sen. Joseph R. McCarthy’s permanent investigating subcommittee. The attorney, Stanley B! Frosh, revealed that the bookbinder and hjs wife — Edward and. Esther Rothschild — were among those who testified at a closed subcommittee meeting Monday. ; They answered all questions i|ut to them “fully and completely,” Frosh said in a statement. “No testimony j , . in any way Vindicated a serious situation insofar as national security is concerned.” The all-Republican subconfmittee has been holding secret;’ sessions this week, including, toddy, on possible security leaks at the government printing office. It plans to launch a public next week. A After four witnesses were heard Monday, McCarthy said if the testimony was true "the situation is extremely bad."..He said the evidence involved alleged Communists who were handling “secret material” of the defense department. atomic energy commission, and central intelligence agency. Frosh said the printing office issues documents for all government agencies but that his client. Rothschild, was just "a laborer — a bookbinder." “He does not work on documents classified as top secret or secret,” the attorney said. ‘‘He in no way indicated there was a lack of security precautions in the GPO. His testimony was quite to the contrary.” Frosh -said he issued his statement because McCarthy the subcommittee had broken! their “express agreement” to let Rothschilds present and crossexamine witnesses in closed session and not to talk to the press before they had a full pppoitunity "to present their side of the matter.” He said witnesses were called Tuesday without notice tp the Rothschilds. He also said the subcommittee announced after* Monday’s session that “this w-ould be a case of perjury." I • Sen. Everett M. Dirksen. (R- III.) only other member of the subconP mittee taking part Ain the hearings. said Tuesday afternoon’s session dealt mainly with the "possibility of any person, ho inrlined, of purloining a secretidocument and transmitting it to handswhere it shouldn’t be.”
