Truman weighs super panel to review state department loyalty
Washington June 5 A White House source says there is a strong possibility President Truman will appoint a super panel to review cases of 81 State Department employees questioned by Senator McCarthy. The plan would not replace the loyalty system but could assist it. The President may discuss the idea with Senator Tydings at a late today conference. The McCarthy charges center on the 1945 Amerasia case involving removal of secret documents. Emmanuel Larsen among six arrested was questioned behind closed doors despite Knowland calls for public airing.
