Starkweather, Caril Enter Innocent Pleas LINCOLN, Neb. UP) Pleas of innocent were made in Lancaster County yesterday by 19- year-old Charles Starkweather, admitted killer of 11 persons, and Caril Fugate, his 14-year-old girl friend.

They appeared separately. Both Charles and Caril appeared without counsel to plead to identical charges of premeditated murder and murder while in the commission of robbery. On conviction, the jury may set the penally at death in the electric chair or life imprisonment. The charges are based on the shooting of Robert Jensen, 17, Bennet, -in an abandoned farm storm cellar 16 miles east of Lincoln. Jensen's car was taken after the shooting and used for a return trip to Lincoln.

In a special message, Harriman sent to the lawmakers the annual report of the committee on public- employe security procedures. He recommended adoption of its suggestions.

The committee, headed by Wliitelaw Reid of New York City, said the state's main bulwark against subversives, the security risk law enacted during the Korean War, should bo continued unchanged for another year.since it is involved in a court test This law provides that state em- ployes may be removed or barred from security 'agencies or security positions if there is ground for believing they would endanger the security of the state or nation. There is no opportunity for court hearing. The accused may appeal to the Civil Service Commission, which may base discharged on evidence not admissible in court or on secret infprnration not divulged to the accused. The Reid group proposed, however, changing a section of the civil service law applying to all employes, whether in security positions or not. Under this statute, those challenged may demand a court trial and confront witnesses.

The burden of proof is on the discharging officer. The committee noted that the Board of Regents had, after lengthy hearings, found the Communist parties of the United States and New York teach and advocate overthrow of -the government by force and violence. "There is no valid end to be served in requiring that the discharging officer, each proceeding. again in these two Don't Travel on a Question Mark organizations do so teach and ad vocate," the committee said. The group recommended that membership in either organization should be evidence, in itself of disqualification for taking or keeping any public office.

Malcolm Wilson, Yonkers Re. who heads the Assembly Codes Committee, says the committee will send the bill to the tloor next week. Wilson favors outright rejzaal of the act.
