It is a vicious thing," Mc Drop in 1st 5 Months City water collections in the first five months this year totaled $11,561,353, compared with $11,835,316 in the corresponding 1953 period, James W.a Jardine, commissioner nf water and sewers, reported yesterday, Carthy It is a dishonest OPPENHEIMER thing. McCarthy also denounced Flanders for accusing Mc- Continued from first page Carthy of trapping Republic against Oppenheimer, announced ih Washington yesterday, "an unfortunate development in a disturbing and frightening sequence of events." Noting that the" board's majority decision referred to Oppenheimer as a "loyal citizen" the scientists ans into a search for sub versives in the'Eisenhower ad IMS ministration." McCarthy re heimer's continuing conduct and associations have reflected a serious disregard for the requirements of the security system. "2.

J. Robert Oppenheimer from access to American atomic secrets was denounced as characteristic of a totalitarian government by six members of the Atomic Scientists of Chicago, in a statement released last night. A "The statement, bearing the signatures of Dr. Arthur Ro-senf eld, chairman of the organization, and five individual members, accused the government of attempting to "muffle a sincere and legitimate opponent' of certain of its policies by casting doubt on his patriotism and character."

D.l chairman of the hearings, had done outstanding work in exposing Alger Hiss, and said he believed Mundt would agree that "when you get to the question of treason you can't start drawing party lines." McCarthy, said realized a senator cannot be subpenaed, but urged that Flanders be asked to come before the subcommittee and give the information on which he based his charges. Flanders told reporters later that there would be no point in his testifying because he "has no new information to offer.

There is not the slightest vestige of information before the board that would indicate that Dr. Oppenheimer is not a loyal citizen of his country," Evans said. "He hates Russia.

He had communist friends, it is true. He still has some. To deny him clearance now for what he was cleared in 1947, when we must know he is less of a security risk now than he was then, seems to be hardly Partly cloudy; high, about 78; winds northwest, about 20 m. p. visibility good.

We find his conduct in the hydrogen bomb program sufficiently disturbing as to raise a doubt as to whether his future participation, if characterized by the same attitude in a government program relating to the national defense, would be clearly consistent with the best interests of security. "4.

We have regretfully concluded that Dr Oppenheimer has been less than candid in several instances in his testimony before this board." Considered All Phases The board said in its recommendation: "In arriving at our recommendation we have sought to address ourselves to the whole question before us and not to consider the problem as a fragmented one either in terms of specific criteria or in terms of any period in Dr. life, or to consider loyalty, character, and associations separately. "However, of course, the most serious findings which this board could make as a result of these proceedings would be that of disloyalty on the part of Dr. Oppenheimer to his country. For that reason, we liave given particular attention to the question of his loyalty, and we have come to a clear conclusion, which should be reassuring to the people of this country, that he is a loyal citizen.

If. this were the only consideration, therefore, we would recommend that the reinstatement of his clearance would not be a danger to the common defense and security. Headed A-Bomb Study We have, however, been unable to arrive at the conclusion that it would be clearly consistent with the security interests of the United States to reinstate Dr. Oppenheimer's clearance and therefore, do not so recommend." Evans, in his, dissent, said, that "to damn him now and ruin his career and service, I cannot do it." Evans warned, Our failure to clear Dr. Oppenheimer will be a black mark on the escutcheon of our country." He cited the numerous scientists, to whom he referred as a considerable segment of the scientific backbone of our nation," who backed Oppenheimeri as for a parent teachers meeting.

Flanders then asked what the private had done to' aid the 'i subcommittee and went on: Then there is the relation- ship of the staff assistant to army private. It is natural that he should wish to retain services of an able collab- orator, but he seems to have almost passionate anxiety retain him. Why? 1 "And then there is the himself. At times he seems anxious to rid himself 'of the whole mess, and then -again, at least in the presence I of his assistants, he strongly supports the latter's efforts to 'keep the army private's ser- vices available. "Parallel" to Hitler "Does the assistant' have I some hold on the senator? Can it be that our Dennis, so 'effective in making troubles for his elders, has at last got-Iten himself into trouble? Does committee plan to investigate the real issues at stake?" Flanders said that McCarthy 'inspires "foreboding" among 'the Jewish citizens, accused McCarthy of "strange tender-Iness" for the "Nazi ruffians in the Malmedy massacre investigation, and continued: "Perhaps this would not have been enough to perpetuate foreboding, but his anti-l communism so completely parallels that of Adolf Hitler -as to strike fear into the hearts any defenseless minority."
