Bocoiuyo Observations
100 Per Cent Successful

RIO DE JANEIRO, May 20 (P).-
A broadcast heard here today
quoted Prof. c. c. Kiess of the
Bureau of Standards as saying "the
total eclipse observations at Bo-
caiuva were 100 per cent successful
pending, of course, development of
the films"
The broadcaster remarked during
the period of totality: 1T is deep
night here; even the sun is black
The sky is midnight blue and there
are brilliant stars.
I'VE cannot see people standing
10 yards away. but only their sill
houettes. North American and
Brazilian scientists are working In
darkness with red flashlights"
American Ambassador William D.
Pawley, in Bocaiuva for the eclipse
spoke briefly during the broadcast
terming the observations of the
scientists great success"
The eclipse was not visible to the
naked eye, however, at a similar
observation station at Araxa, 275
miles southwest of Bocaiuva, be-
cause the sky was cloudy and over
cast.
The eclipse was not seen in the
Northern Hemisphere.

Rent Control
Continued From First Page.)

tan Washington urged fiat mini
mum increase of 10 per cent on all
residential rents.
Clifford H. Newell, president OF
the Federation of Citizens AsSocia-
tionS, told the Commissioners he
personally favored a 10 per cent
increase in rents and that he be-
lieved this was the sense of the
association.
An appeal for the continuance OF
rent control for another year, how
ever. was presented by Rent Ad-
ministrator Robert F. Cogswell.
Mr.. Cogswell based his opinion
on a report submitted recently to
the Commissioners showing a stead
lily darkening housing picture under
which the shortage appeared to be
getting worse instead of better.
He was strongly supported by the
Voteless District League Of Women
Voters, the Washington Commit
tee of the Southern Conference for
Human Welfare, the Midway Civic
Association, the Kalorama Citizens
Association, the District Fair Rent
Committee and the League OF
Women Shoppers.
Other witnesses were to be heard
later in the day.

Eisenhower Backs Bill
TO Set Up Government
Information Program
BY the ks.oeiafed Press

Gen. Eisenhower expressed con-
viction today that all the nations of
the world "can live together peace
fully if we use a little sense" and
cultivate common understanding.
'I don't think we should challenge
any one" he told House Foreign
Affairs Subcommittee as he advo-
Gated a measure setting up a Gov
ernment information and cultural
relations program to spread under
standing with truth and only
truth"
The Army Chief OF Staff said the
program to inform the rest of the
world about American democracy is
vital to help countries trembling in
the balance'-those which don't
know which way to CO.
THE more democracy is practiced,
the safer we are" Gen. Eisenhower
testified, adding that those who
practice that kind of government
are not "aggressors.
Bill May Be Approved.
Chairman Mundt said that after
questioning Gen. Eisenhower, the
subcommittee may approve the bill.
The House refused last week to
provide funds for the Cultural and
Information Service on grounds
Congress had not authorized 1t by
law. The bill is intended to supply
the authority.
Secretary Marshall and other
State Department officials have
called the program essential to COM
bat foreign propaganda and give
the world true picture of American
foreign and domestic policy.
Mr.. Mundt said he will ask Chair
man Eaton to assemble the full
committee "at the earliest possible
moment to act on the subcommit-
tees recommendations.
Some Changes Already Made.
The subcommittee already has
made some tentative changes in the
bill, he said.
"They deal primarily" he said,
with expressing the intent of Con-
gress that whenever possible private

defense might rest soon after Mar.
zani has finished testifying.
Marzani listened carefully yesters
day as a parade of eight witnesses
spoke up In his defense.
Mr.. Ford asked each witness the
same three questions:
What do you know about Mar
zani's reputation for truth? Fol
good order? For loyalty?"
Each testified that, in these re-
spects, the defendants reputation
was good.
Marzani heard his former boss
in the OSS tell the jury of six men
and six women he knew of allega-
tioIls Marzani was Communist
before he hired him. The witness
Emile Despres, now a professor at
Williams College, said he had sat
isfied himself Warrants views were
not those of a Communist.
Greenbaum Supports Marzani.
Brig. Gen. Edward S. Greenbaum
wartime assistant to the Under
secretary of War, said that as far as
he was concerned MarZani's loyalty
"had never been questioned while
he was working for the Government
in washington.
Gen. Greenbaum said he had
known the defendant since 1943 and
had never heard it suggested that
Marzani was a Communist.
Others testifying yesterday as to
the character of the defendant were
Meyer Goldberg of New York, for
mer chairman of the East Side Con-
ference to Defend America and
Crush Hitler; John J. Lemula, for
mer New York asSemblyman, and

Mr.. Wofford insisted he was EN-
titled to argue anything in the

ment to the jury. and declared he

Supreme Court if prevented.
Will Insist on Murder.
There's been entirely too much
talk about Willie Earle and not
enough about Brown" Mr.. Wofford
said.
Denfense Attorney Benjamin Bolt
also told the court that on the prin-
cipal count of the indictment
murder-the defense would not ask
a diminishing degree Of guilt, and
declared: ITS murder or nothing. .
The court allotted four hours to
each side for final summation and
argument, with the defense to open
and close.
Twenty-one defendants are ac-
cused of all four counts of the
indictments, they are charged with
murder, with conspiracy to commit
murder, and with being accessories
both before and after the fact.
Seven defendants have been &C
quilted of murder and of being
accessories after the fact, but still
are accused of conspiracy to murder
and of accessory before the fact.

Story Of Paraehuting Jews
lis Challenged In Palestine
BY H.. Associated Press


JERUSALEM. May 40. Jews,
Britons and Arabs challenged today
an assertion made In New York BY
Rabbi Baruch Korffs that the Po-
liticai Action Committee for Pales-
tine had been dropping refugee Jews
into the Holy Land by parachute.
This is sensation-how they
can drop people by parachute with
out airplanes?' one high military
authority said. "All they ask us TO
believe is that plane can take OF
in Europe, fly over a dozen FROM
tiers. drop parachutes and ny away
without being shot down."
A Jewish Agency spokesman crit
icized what he called the use of such
stories to assist in the collection q
funds. An Arab spokesman COM
mented similarly.
Police sources termed the asser-
tions about parachute immigrations
fantastic. and impossible.

prospects seemed none too good, the
early dispatches indicated, but a few
moments before the fiIst contacts
| the sky became nearly cloudless. Al
though there was slight cloud inter-
ference at times, observations were
from so to 95 per cent successful.
First contact when edges OF moon
and sun appeared to touch for the
first time, was at 1922 EDIT. The
precious moments OF totality began
at 8::34 EDIT and the last contact
was at 10 am. There were at least
38 minutes of excellent observing
during this period, National Geo.
graphic Society dispatches said.
Observations crowded into the
moments of totality are expected to
result in new knowledge of the
bending of starlight as it passes
close to the sun. This is one OF the
criteria of the theory of relativity;;

Louise Cromwell. appearing rs
landlord, told the Commissioners
rent control would never be ended
here as long as members of Congress
are tenants.
David Gordon, chairman of the
Fair Rent Committee, predicted that
rent control will be extended for
the rest of the Nation and added:
"Washington's need for such con-
troll is perhaps greater than that OF
any other community"
Lusk Stresses Use Of Space.
Rufus S. Lusk, representing the
Building Owners and Managers
Association, said the housing short
age here results from low-controlled
rents under which persons can af-
ford to occupy more housing space
than they normally would. Lifting
of controls, with attendant increases
in rent, he felt would force many
of this type to occupy smaller quar-
tiers and thus provide more housing.
Mrs. Mary Weitzman of the South
ern Conference for Human Welfare
told the Commissioners there still is
a housing emergency, although
the proponents of decontrol main
tain that the housing shortage will
disappear as controls are lifted"
What they really mean" she con-
tinued, "is that the wealthy will be
able to find housing while those in
the middle brackets will be forced
to leave their present dwellings.
That is no solution to anybody's
housing problem
Mrs. Thomas E. Street OF the
League of Women Voters predicted
that If controls are abandoned, not
only would rents be raised. but
tenants would have little protection
against eviction.
