The majority said it did so to permit a finding: whether perjured testimony led to a government order that the Communist Party register as a tool of Moscow. The dissenters charged the court was ducking the issue to gain time before the final order to register becomes effective. The majority told the Sub verslve Activities Control Board it may hold further hearings to determine whether to disregard the testimony of turnabout witness Harvey Matusew and two other former Communists. By a 6-3 vote, the high tribunal sent the case back to the Subversive Activities Control Board to clarify the record. Specifically, the high court said it wanted to make certain that the board based its findings upon untainted Justice Frankfurter delivered! the majority opinion on behalf ofr himself.

Chief Justice Warren and Justices Black, Douglas, Burton and Harlan. Justice Clark wrote a dissenting opinion, Joined by Justices Reed and Minton. After a 16-month hearing, the Subversive Activities Control Board in' 1953 found the party was a Communist-action organization and directed it to register under terms 'of 1950 Internal Security Act. The act requires registration by Communist-action and Communist-front organizations. Under terms of the SACB order, the party would have had to list Its officers and members, detailed financial accountings, and supply an inventory of printing and mimeographing equipment.

Communist fronts are subject to substantially the same requirements, except the listing of rank and file members. 4 Peninsulans Win Guggenheims NEW YORK Three Stanford University professors and one from University of Santa Clara were among the 275 scholars, scientists, research men, artists and photographers awarded fellowships by Guggenheim Foundation last night.
