Dem Sees No Evidence Reds On Payroll By John Chadwick
Senator Olin D Johnston said the Eisenhower administration offered no proof it found a Communist on the federal payroll when it took office. The Civil Service subcommittee, probing the security program started May 1953, heard that about 41 percent of those fired or resigned had been hired under Eisenhower. The panel's authority ends this month, with Johnston seeking a one-year renewal. As of June 30 the program had dismissed 3,586 and forced 5,681 to resign before any adverse finding.
