Gambling Ring In
Printing Office,
McCarthy Charges
WASHINGTON, (if)— Sen. Mc
Carthy charged Saturday an or
ganized gambling ring is operating
in the government printing office
(GPO) and poses a grave threat
to national security.
The head of the GPO, Public
Printer Raymond C. Blattenber
ger, promptly agreed that gam
bling activities “have a lot to do
with the security of our depart
ment.”
Blattenberger then announced
that any printing office employe
who' “hides behind the Fifth
Amendment” will be suspended.
His announcement drew a round
of applause from the audience at
a hearing conducted by the Sen
ate’s permanent investigations
subcommittee headed by McCar
thy.
A number of witnesses at other
hearings by the subcommittee
have refused to answer questions
on the ground that answers might
tend to incriminate them. The
BLESSED BE THE TIE
LITTLE ROCK, M— When a
95-year-old Negro was sentenced
to a night in jail for contempt of
court in a property dispute, his
70-year-old wife told the judge:
“God may take him away from
me but nobody else is going to.”
And she proved it by spending
the night in Pulaski County jail
with him.
Fifth Amendment to the Constitu-.
tion gives a witness the right to re
fuse to answer such questions.
Blattenberger made his state
ment after a surprise witness, Carl
J. Lundmark, refused to tell Mc
Carthy where he operates a gam
bling book at the huge govern
ment printing plant or whether he
netted S25,000 from this operation
last year.
The subcommittee has been in
vestigating charges that some em
ployes of the printing office are
Communists and may have car
ried off confidential documents.
McCarthy, sitting as a one-man
subcommittee, headed off on a
different track Saturday, however,
contending that gambling in the
GPO could cause employes to get
so deeply into debt that they
might be easy prey for foreign
agents.
The charge sidetracked for a
time the scheduled appearance as
a witness of Philip L. Cole, deputy
public printer and GPO security
officer.
Both Blattenberger and Cole
expressed surprise when McCar
thy asked if they knew “a book
maker with runners” is operating
in the printing office.
So McCarthy called his unan
nounced witness, Lundmark — a
calm, shirt-sleeved man who has
been a hand compositor at the
printing plant.
All Lundmark would say was
that he makes about $5,200 a year
from his GPO job and that he
owns a 35-acre farm on which
some race horses belonging to his
son are stabled.
