Guilty Plea Entered
In Fatal SHOOTING Of
Policeman Shinau|t
Bullock Faces Possible
Life Imprisonment in
1882 Murder Case

The first-degree murder trial of
Willie Bullock, 43, colored, charged
with the fatal shooting of Policeman
George w. Shinault in 1882 in the
first block of F. street NV, ended
today when Bullock pleaded guilty
before Justice Matthew F. Mcclure
Of District Court to second degree
murder.
Bullock at a previous trial had
been convicted in District Court Of
f1rst-degree murder, but In June,
1941, the Court Of Appeals reversed
the conviction on the grounds the
Government had failed to prove pre-
meditation.
On the second-degree murder
plea Bullock faces possible maxi
mum sentence of life Imprisonment,
1t was pointed out by Assistant
United States Attorney Charles B.
Murray.
Mr.. Murray, prosecuting the case,
sought to prove both premeditation
and also that the defendant was
committing a felony when Police
man Shinault arrived on the scene.
The alleged felony was that of as
sault with a dangerous weapon on a
colored woman.
The second trial began Monday.
The trials end stopped a planned
trip to the scene of the shooting by
the jury.
Following the shooting, Bullock
was fugitive for several years.

Public Use Of He|icopters

Thousands of persons will be fly

signer, told members of Congress
today after he had shown them mo-
tion descends of a plane that rises
and descends like an elevator or
stops in midair.
Because Of its ability to land and
take off In the most isolated spots,
Mr.. Sikorsky also declared 1t could
be used to advantage for certain
phases of war, particularly in saving
the lives of wounded men by moving
them quickly to medical centers.
With pontoon attachments, the
craft can be landed In q swamp OF
on thin ice, despite surrounding OBJ
stacles, provided there is space
enough for the overhead propeller.

Flood Of Bonus Bills
Seen Likely 10 Follow
Baldwin 5 Measure
New Yorker Proposes
To Pay 500 Minimum
For Each Year Of Service

By the Associated Press.
A food of servicemen's bonus bills
was seen as likely today, following
the introduction of the first OF sub
measures.
Offered yesterday by Represent
ative Baldwin, Republican, of New
York, a World War veteran. the
measure proposes creation of a fund
for paying every man or woman
in the armed forces or merchant
marine a minimum bonus of 500
after the war for each year of war
time service. Mr.. Baldwin estimat-
ed the cost to the Government at
approximately 10000 100000.
Earlier Battles" Recalled.
After the last war legislation
haunted local and national political
campaigns for nearly two decades
before actual payment to veterans
began on June IS, 1896. That
project survived vetoes by Presi-
dents Harding, Coolidge, Hoover and
Roosevelt before 1t reached the
statute books in its final form after
the second Roosevelt veto was over
ridden by Congress in 1896. Some
3,500,000 World War veterans were
its beneficiaries and the estimated
cost in cash and baby bonds" was
approximately $4,000, 10000
No Sponsoring Indicated.
The Baldwin proposal would start
accumulation Of a fund to cover
similar payments to veterans Of this
war. His plan would require the
Treasury to deposit in the fund the
sum of $3.50 to the credit Of each
beneficiary for each month Of serv-
ice after the Pearl Harbor attack.
1t calls for contributions on the part
of commissioned and non-commis-
stoned officers, however. Five per
cent of their monthly base pay
would be deducted, to be added to
their original lump-sum credit.
The bill was introduced without
indication Of its sponsorship other
than the authors name. 1t was
filed, too. at a time when admins
tration leaders have been indicating
strong opposition, at this time, to
pending proposals to increase pen
sions for World War veterans.
