Demands Congress Force | Comminist-Baskers Off U.S. Payroll.

fimes Special

‘WASHINGTON, Nov, 25. Charg- ¥ ing. that “some of the best admin-| istrative jobs in. Washington now| .are held by Communist fellow-trav-|-

elers,”

Ind). today demanded congression-|

al: action on the grounds that the . Roosevelt regime will do nothing about their infiltration.

- Citing various Dies Committee re-|' Grant suggested that

ports, Rep, the House Judiciary Committee join in forcing action. The Committee is headed by Rep. Hatton W. Sum‘ners (D. Tex.). ‘Springer (R. Ind.) is a member,

Rep. Grant alleged that 207 per-|

‘sons cited by Rep. Dies as “affiliated with subversive organizations” now are employed in the Department of Agriculture ‘of which Secretary of Agriculture Claude R. : Wickard, Camden, Ind. is in charge.

Lists Another 145

He listed another group -of 145 cited by Mr. Dies in the Federal Security Agency of which Paul V. McNutt, former Indiana Governor, is the head. “The employment of, Communist sympathizers in Washington has been brought to the attention of the administrative branch on three different occasions recently,” Rep. Grant said. “But to date there has been no action. It seems to me, therefore,

the matter would be a proper sub-|-

‘Ject for inquiry by the House Judiciary Committee.

Suggests ‘Congress Act

. “If this Administration continues to conceal the Communist fellowtraveler payroll, Congress might deal with the matter effectively by inserting in all future appropriations a clause forbidding the payment of Federal salaries to persbns known to be affiliated with subversive political organizations.” Using the various Dies listings, Rep. Grant alleged that 1600 wellpaid officials selected under President Roosevelt are Communist sym‘pathizers. “A military alliance with Communism is, repughant. to many Americans,” his statement concluded. ' “Entitled to Facts”

< “But turning whole segments of the American Government itself over to fellow-traveler administrators is far worse. It is now a matter of public:record that more than 1600 of these people are getting luxurious salaries from the Federal payroll. “Every American farmer and wage-earner is being faxed to pay these fellows. But we find no evidence anywhere that the President or his Cabinet officers have ever turned a hand to clean house. . “If the White House approves the employment of Communist fellowtravelers in the Federal agencies, the American people are entitled to know the facts in the case. “A prompt inquiry into these matters by the Judiciary Committee of fue rouse would serve the public inrest.”

ALSACE UNIVERSITY REOPENED BY NAZIS

BERN, Nov. 25 (CDN).—Another ‘step in the Germanization of Alsace has been completed with the reopening of the 400-year-old University of Strassbourg, closed since the Nazi invasion. Rector Karl Schmidt declared, according to the DNB account, that the university was never a French Institution, nor an expression of French culture.” The institution will now be devoted, Dr. Schmidt ‘said, to “forgIng spiritual weapons for the successful completion of the war.”

PURDUE MAN TO SPEAK

Dr. Edward F. Degering, associate professor of organic chemistry at Purdue University, will address the Butler University affiliate chapter of the American Chemical Society, at 8 p. m. Friday in Jordan Hall. His subject will be “Synthetics: Fiber} Plastics and Rubber.”
