Three Democrats urged a staff housecleaning for the Senate Investigations subcommittee led by Senator McCarthy. McCarthy accused them of clever and dangerous tactics as the House inquiry into the Army row extended beyond its 36 day telecast. McClellan pressed for a Justice Department review to probe possible perjury and crime in testimony, and questioned White House action on security clearances and staff intimidation. Symington and Jackson backed McClellan as McCarthy warned of smear campaigns against staffers and supporters.

Eisenhower presses France on Indochina and EDC talks
President Eisenhower sent a letter to French President Rene Coty offering close cooperation and a new start with the United States on Indochina peace talks while urging ratification of the European Defense Community.
