Netherlands (P)- The middle-of-the-road Catholic Peoples Party has recaptured its position as Holland's most powerful political group. It scored heavy gains in the popular in yesterday's local elections. But its partner national government coalition.

the Socialist Labor Party, chalked up the biggest gain in allotment of the 590 places on the nation's 11 provincial council. The Communitst lost ground on both counts. tempt to block off a subcommittee investigation for "misconduct and possible law violation." As is customary, subcommittee members and their staff may tion all witnesses freely. In a departure from normal procedure, the principal disputants were granted permission to cross-examine one another. McCarthy had insisted on this right.

No Immunity Mundt has expressed an informal opinion that no principal could claim immunity from prosecution any criminal charges, including perjury, which might grow out of the inquiry. Formal statements from the two sides are contradictory on many points. Mundt announced in advance he was going to hold all of the princi- pals to instructions to submit their charges in writing. and be prepared to "stake their reputations for veracity" on their ability to prove them. The "verdict" in the inquiry.

when eventually written, will be in the form of a report to the Senate by the subcommittee's seven members-Mundt and Senators Dirksen (R-Ill). Potter (R-Mich), Dworshak (R-Idaho), McClellan (D-Ark), Jackson (D-Wash) and Symington (D-Mo). Dworshak is a temporary member, replacing McCarthy. The subcommittee late yesterday made Hensel principal in this controversy." He had been publicly linked to it by McCarthy just the day before. Hensel said he would be available for questioning but did not know whether he would file any formal statement "except for a simple denial" of McCarthy's Commodity And Stock MarketsNew York Cotton (12:3 quotations) May 3438 3443 3437 .3439 July 3433 3439 3432 3436 Oct 3383 3387 3382 3385 Dec 3381 3383 3379 3381 New Orleans Cotton May 3438 3439 3434 3439 July 3437 3438 3433 3437 Oct 3384 3385 3380 3385 Dec 3378 3379 3378 3379 Chicago Soybeans May 406 406 July 398 395 399 Sept I Nov 267 Chicage Wheat May 214 July Chicage Corn May 153 15134 July 1523 New York Stocks (12:45 quetations!

A site was found behind the city hall, but the catcher had quit in the meantime to chop cotton. 4. Another dog catcher was hired and the city clerk ran out of licenses in half day when the rush began. When the drive began in May 1951, only 17 dogs had been licensed. By noon of the next day, the city clerk ran out of tags.

Within four week period, over 500 dogs had been licensed and the total grew to 600 by the eend of the year. As compared to 20 the preceding year. When Dan Blodgett took office as mayor in January. 1952. the job of dog catcher was transferred t6 the city engineering department and no extra personnel was hired for the job.

It is doubtful that Blytheville' population has increased as much AS nine per cent more than county as a whole during the past few years. On the question of net Income per household in Blytheville, (remember, this is income after taxes have been taken out), "Consumer Markets" figure of $3,956 is somewhat difficult to justify. THE PER capita income in Blytheville, according to the 1950 census.

was $800. Using the figure of 3.21 persons per household, as given by the census, this means that in income per 1950 household was $2.568 $1.390 less than the Markets" estimate for the past year. By transposing household income to a per capita basis, still using the 1950 census figure, total income in Blytheville would average out at $1,233 per person according to the publication's estimate of income. This would mean an increase per capita over 1853. of $433.

There seems little indication in the general growth and development of Blythevi'le to substantiate such a large increase over three-year period.

He said the subcommittee would seek only to determine the truth in the charges and between McCarthy and Army officounter-charges cials. In a prepared opening statement, Mundt reviewed these charges, and said that "each participant in this dispute.

like each member of our subcommittee. will be carefully checked and watched." The charges made by each side, as well as their implications, Mundt said, "are of such a grave and serious nature as to have caused great concern on the part of this subcommittee as well as on the part of the American peopie." The big marble Senate Caucus room was packed with TV and newsreel cameras, reporters and as many spectators as could be squeezed in. Big Audience The biggest audience ever was promised for the long-heralded investigation, with millions of television viewers across the nation looking on. NBC, ABC and Dumont TV networks were carrying the session. CBS planned to carry excerpts later.

There were seats for about 200 spectators and these were grabbed early. The room ordinarily can acporters and the various the space was taken up by recommodate about 500 but much of men--still movie and TV and their apparatus. Aiding the Senators is a special staff headed by Ray H. Jenkins, a Republican lawyer from Knoxville, who pledged that "the facts will be presented fully, fairly and fearlessly." McCarthy, in a speech in Texas yesterday, referred to the hearings as "this television show of Adams vs. Cohn." But almost at same time Sen.

Mundt (R-SD), chosen to preside over the investigation, was telling newsmen here he regards McCarthy as one of six principals. He named the others as: Roy M. Cohn and Francis P. Carr, chief counsel and chief of staff, respectively, for the Mccarthy subcommittee: Secretary of the Army Robert T. Stevens, Asst.

Secretary of Defense H. Struve Hensel, Army Counselor John G. Adams. Army Leader Off Mundt arranged for morning and afternoon sessions in the big redcarpeted caucus room of the Senate Office Building. He directed the Army to lead off, mit under oath to the "searching with all witnesses prepared to sub- inquiry" he promised into the dispute.

In brief essence, it involves: 1. The Army's charges that McCarthy, Cohn and Carr "sought by improper means" to win special Army favors for Pvt. G. David Schine, wealthy New Yorker who was an unpaid subcommittee con'sultant before being drafted last November. 2.

McCarthy's countercharges that Stevens and Adams had tried to "discredit the investigations subcommittee and to force a discontinuance of our hearings exposing Communist infiltration in their department." 3.

In 1951, the city had a dog pound built and placed it behind the city hall during a drive to get rid of all unvaccinated canines.

The city still has this cage. Chief Poster said this morning. while discussing the unfilled position of dog catcher. A person hired for dog catcher will have to furnish his own truck since the city does not have one available, he said. In the past, dogs were picked up and placed in the cage for a 48-hour period during which time the owncould "bail out" his canine by paying 8 $1 pound fee and 25 cents for per day for feed, having the dog vaccinated and buying a city license.
