Gude Asks Privacy Law's
For Federal Employes
Legislation to protect Fed-
'cral employes from invasion
of privacy and pressure to
contribute to partisan politi-
;cal organizations was pro-
posed last night by State Sen.
Gilbert Gude (R-Montgomery).
Charging that Government
workers "are being subjected
to unprecedented harrass-
ment," he called for a "bill
of rights" for them.
Gude, a candidate for the;
House of Representatives,
from Maryland's new Eighth
District, said such a bill
should include:
? Restriction on the use of
detailed questionnaires about
personal financial affairs to
top political appointees and
"others clearly in policy-mak-
'ing positions." His statement
did not indicate whether,
members of Congress should'
be exempt.
? A flat ban on personality
or psychological testing of em-
ployes "aside from essential
,,medical evaluation, unless iti
can be affirmatively proved'
that such use is required for'
security reasons."
? Strict provisions forbid..
ding Government agencies
from influencing employes to
donate to charity drives, buy;
savings bonds or attend parti-
san dinners and receptions.
? Careful scrutiny of 'any
proposal "to establish a Fed,
eral data operation to central-
ize information, whether' con-
cerning Federal employes, pri-
vate individuals or private
businesses, regardless of thQ
alleged purpose of such an dn? :
stallation."
