Hearing to probe Rosenberg testimony announced
Attorney General McGrath said a federal grand jury will examine testimony at Senate hearings on Anna M. Rosenberg's nomination as Assistant Secretary of Defense. He asked for next week's action while the Senate Armed Services Committee pressed the Justice Department to consider perjury charges against witnesses accusing Rosenberg of Communist sympathies. Ralph De Sola testified he saw Rosenberg at Communist meetings in New York 14 years ago. Rosenberg denied the charges as De Sola's ex-wife disputed him. In Hagerstown Martin urged fortitude to cut the budget if needed at a Lincoln Day dinner.
