Ste vens denied today that he would “cover up” for any body who might mishandle cases of subversion in the Army. “I want to make it clear that I’m not covering up for anybody at anytime,” he told Senate investigators. Stevens’ flareup came during the eighth day of the Senate inquiry into the Army-McCarthy charges , and counter-charges. His protest was directed at McCarthy who, he said, had repeatedly charged the Army with “covering up.” The Wisconsin Republican also has accused Stevens with trying to Impede investigations oi subversives in the Army. One phase of McCarthy’s ques tioning Involved the honorable dis charge of Maj. Irving Peress, an Amy dentist described as a “Fifth Amendment Communist” by the Wisconsin senator. It was interrupted frequently by legal wrangles In which subcom mittee counsel Ray H. Jenkins in sisted that the present Investiga tion could not pass on the merits of the Peress case. OTHER HIGHLIGHTS The morning testimony produced these other highlights: 1. Stevens asserted he cannot re call (tar notifying McCarthy that SkjJP’ oAto-the. Senates appeal before removing Maj. Oen. Kirke B. Lawton as commandant of Ft. Monmouth, N. J. 2. The secretary said he has no information to back up some news dispatches which stated that Pvt. O. David Schlne enjoyed filet mig non and champagne at the Stork Club in New York when he should have been "peeling potatoes” at Ft. Dix, N. J., during basic training last November. 3. Stevens insisted he could not recall having asked that McCarthy’s Ft.- Monmouth investigation—:tof al leged Communist espionage at the radar laboratories be stopped. ORDERED REPORT Stevens said he ordered the in spector general to prepared a re port as soon as possible. But he added that hd still does not have the report. “If there is any dereliction of duty,” he told McCarthy. "I assure you it will be properly dealt with.” McCarthy asked if Army coun sel John O: Adams had not tele phoned an order for Peresa’ dis charge. Adams is a major target of McCarthy’s charges and one of tjie parties to the investigation. "No, I don’t recall that at all,” Stevens asaid, adding that Mr. (Centime* on png* ten) Mother Os Local Resident is Dead Mrs. M. D. Thomas, 74, of East Orange, New Jersey, mother of John O.
