The Soviets and thg British were reported seeking a recess starting Aug. 15. How long the recess might be was not disclosed.

NOT THE SAME Savin said that to "assume the communist party desired to use the student protest for its own ends is one. matter, but to assume that the desires of the communist party were in fact translated into achievement is another." The student chairman charged that "any statement to the effect that the leadership of the Students for Civil Liberties was infiltrated, inspired, paid for and directed by the communist party is nothing more than hogwash." Hoover's report, Savin stated, "attempts to discredit the very real feeling against the HUAC and its methods of slanderous innuendo and ex probably would not object if blaze which covered 600 acres and was considered under control yesterday morning, later jumped guards and last night covered 1,500 acres. tual building project are now the other two insist on a recess.
