The indictments came after more
than months investigation Of the

On World Morality
By the Associated Press

ROME, Sept. s. The United
States will oppose draft resolutions
on international morality to be
debated today by the 37th confer
ence of the Interparliamentiary Un-
ion meeting.
The proposal contains Is points
covering such controversial subjects
as atomic weapons, care Of refugees
control of propaganda and war
mongering" and the use of armed
forces out of their home country.
After caucus, the American del
egation decided to feel out other
delegations. Senator Hatch, Demo-
crat, of New Mexico will head the
American effort to modify the reso-
lutions.
I'VE found at least Is places in the
draft we could not accept Senator
Hatch declared. The main trouble
is vagueness. The draft says states
must bear within the limits of their
means the burden of harboring ref
ugees. That might mean we would
have to take all of them, as our
means are greatest"
Another point bothering Senator
Hatch was the declaration that mo
state may use it's armed forces on
the territory of another independent
state except for military action
authorized by the terms of the
United Nations Charter"
"If we voted for that" Senator
Hatch said, I'VE would have to get
our Flying Fortresses out of England
tomorrow"
The American delegation also in
cludes Senator Barkley, Democrat

WoodIawn Estate Sale
Gets Hearing Sept. Il

! The question of who will become
the new owner OF historic Wood
lawn, 126-acre estate near Mount
Vernon, probably will be settled
September 81 in Fairfax County
Circuit Court.
Purchase Of the estate for sl65, 900
by The Immaculate Heart Of Mary
Mission Society, Inc, from guardians
for Mrs. Oscar w. Underwood, widow
Of the late Alabama Senator, has
been authorized by the court.
After the authorization, however,
the Woodlawn Public Foundation,
Inc. a group formed to maintain
the estate as public shrine, asked
stay in the sale proceedings.
Through Attorney John A. X.
Donovan, the Catholic order an
nounced that 1t would be pleased
and interested to have Woodlawn
operated as a public shrine" Mr..
Donovan said the mission society
would be glad to step aside in favor
Iof the new group which, however,
must offer more than $165,00o for
the property
On the plea of the foundation,
Judge Paul E. Brown left open the
date that the sale would become
final. Yesterday, however, Mr.. Don
ovan filed an answer to the inter-
vening petition of the new group
which asks either that the mission
society's $4,000 be returned or the
sale to the society be made final.
Judge Brown then set September
21 as the date for a hearing.
