Congress Action Held
Needed 10 Send Army
Experts 10 Egypt
BY the Assee;assd Press

Government officials said yester-
day congressional approval would be
needed before the United States
could send military experts to Egypt,
as asked by Egyptian Prime Minister
Nokrashy Pasha.
The Prime Minister had an hour
long conference with Undersecretary
of State Loyett late yesterday, after
which he told reporters of his re-
quest for American military advis-
ers.
Ons oficial, who refused to be
identified, said that while 1t Is i'm
possible to consider that request
without congressional authority, the
United States has offered to dis
cuss sending civiiian-instead Of
military-experts to Egypt.
Decentralization probably els
more important than any other
factor in maintaining a modern
army" this official pointed out.
That is where the United States
might be able to help Egypt"
Wants British to Withdraw.
Some officials said they believe
the Egyptian request for American
military advice may be directly con-
nected with the current Anglo
Egyptian dispute before the United
Nations Security Council.
Under terms of a treaty signed in
1896. the British have kept mill
tary mission in Egypt, as well as sew
eral thousand troops. Egypt now
wants Britain to withdraw its armed
forces.
That wouldsleave the Middle East
ern country without expert military
advice.
Nokrashy Pasha is understood to
have stressed In his conference with
Mr.. Lovet that Egypt Is asking for
expert asSistance-not for a formal
mission.
After the conference, he corrected
a reporter who referred to the Egyp-
tian proposal as a request for mis-
sion. He said Egypt merely wanted
assistance in organizing, expanding
and equipping its ground forces.
Plan Interests Lovett.
Mr.. Lovett, a former Assistant
Secretary Of War for Air, reportedly
expressed great interest in Egypt's
plan for her armed forces.
The Egyptian official scheduled a
meeting with Secretary of War
Royal to discuss the same subject.
During his conference with Mr..
Lovett the Prime Minister also
talked of economic matters. officials
said he indicated he would like to
see increased American purchases OF

70 Groups Will Testify
At Hearing on Shift Of
SCHOOLS 10 Negroes

Representative OF more than ~
citizens groups will appear before
the Board of Education this after
noon at hearing on the proposed
transfer of five white schools to
colored pupils and the closing OF
four others for economy reasons.
Among them will be the repre-
sentatives of the Citizens Emer-
gency School Committee, a group
which sponsored a mass meeting
yesterday to protest the transfers.
The committee represents colored
Parent Teacher Associations and
civic groups of the Northeast area.
Speakers at the meeting, held at
the First Baptist Church, 1908 Whit
tingham place NE, were opposed
to transfer of "handed-down," out
of-date white schools to colored
children. Such transfer will per-
petuate the policy of segregation, it
was maintained.
Most Groups Opposed.
The majority of the groups who
have asked to appear before the
hearing this afternoon, held by the
boards Buildings and Grounds
Committee, have indicated that they
are opposed to the transfers. The
majority of them are colored Or
CARNATIONS.
Under the plan proposed to the
Board of Education by School Supt
Hobart M. Corning, the following
elementary schools would be turned
over to colored pupils: Blow, Nine
teenth street and Benning road
NE; Webb, Fifteenth and Rosedale
streets NE; Bowen, Third and K
streets SW.; Hayes, Fifth and K
streets NE, and Lenox, Fifth street
near Virginia avenue Sc.
The Blow and Webb schools
would be used as annexes to the
Browne Junior High School to elm
mate part-time instruction there
All of the transfers were recon-
mended to end part-time instruc-
ton at colored schools.
Others to be Closed.
If the changes are adopted, $780,
of the 6,825 pupils now in part-timt
classes would be put on full time
All of the 1901 affected are coloree
boys and girls.
To be closed down under the pro.
posed plan are Corcoran Elementary
School, Twenty-eighth street neal
M street NV; Lincoln Elementary
School, Third and c streets Sc.
Dent Elementary School, Secone
street and South Carolina avenue
Sc, and Hilton Elementary School
Sixth street near B street NE.
All of these schools have been op.
Grating far below capacity, DR.. Corn
ing reported in his original recon-
mendations. All white boys and girl
now going to the schools to be trans
ferred or closed down would be en-
rolled in other schools in the sam,
areas.
Duncan Voices Opposition.
Opposition to the transfer of the
schools was summed up by John B
Duncan, representative of the Ben
ming Heights Civic Association, who
spoke at the mass meeting yester.
day.
why in Washington is 1t neces'
sary to transfer old and dilapidatec
schools to Negro citizens?"
Mr.. Duncan said that as result
of that policy, which has been fol-
lowed for number of years, the
vast majority of the Negro schools
are old buildings handed down while
the vast majority Of the white
schools have been built since 1900
