Clark refused today to honor a House Un-American Activities Committee subpe na in the White spy case but said he would consider answering any written ques tions. Clark was attorney general when the late Harry Dexter White was promoted from assistant secretary of treasury to be one of a dozen directors of the International Mon etary Fund. The present attorney general, Herbert Brownell Jr., has charged that former President Truman pro moted White despite FBI warnings he was a Soviet spy. In refusing to honor the eub pena, Clark cited the same con stitutional grounds which Truman invoked yesterday In declining to testify in the White case. MAY REFLY IN WRITING Unlike Truman, however, Clark said he would give “serious con sideration”- to answering any writ ten questions the House committee might want to submit. It was the third refusal to rec ognize its sabpena powers that the committee had run Into. Clark’s letter was delivered Just as the committee was preparing to go through the motions of opening the session to which he had been sum mooed. As in the case of Truman, there was no indication the committee would undertake contempt action against Clark. But It appeared that all witnesses who refused to honor the subpenas will speak up on the White case in one way or another.
