Rural Roads Now
III Prepared To
Play Basic Part

Ohio's nearly $500 miles of
rural roads on the Federal aid
primary system are over five
times as ill-prepared to play their
basic part in Americas current
war effort as they were in World
War II.
That fact was reported today by
1t. Gen. Eugene Reybold, ex-
ecutive vice president of the
American Road Builders Associa-
ton, the country's oldest national
good roads organization, in citing
a jump of 1888, 300 in deficien-
cies on Ohio's rural mileage of
the strategic Federal aid primary
highway system in the last six
years.
Six years ago, TIE American
Association of State Highway Of
ficials set price tag of S190, 1885,
200 on the repairs needed to bring
the rural Federal aid primary
system mileage in Ohio up to
fighting trim for World War II,
Gen. Reybold, chief of the Army
Corps of Engineers during that
war, said. The overall rational
cost for that work was pledged at
5,315, ,531 ,230. Today, the AASHO
estimates Ohio's deficiencies at
S979, ,755, 900 and the total cost
of preparing the nations most
critically needed highways for
war at $14,24O, ,562 900. Progress

mile rural lifeline of transport,

for sufficient additional money
from the unallocated funds they

No action was taken, however
it added, because some of the hos

HSA said their patient load has
dropped 80 per cent but that the
drop has been offset by increased

Furthermore, HSA added, num-

Arthur J. Goldberg. C1O gen.

or local statute or ordinance
which would require the CLIO to
practice segregation.
He said in a statement
In some areas, local statutes
have been used as a threat against
CLIO affiliated councils which have
endeavored to wipe out forms OF
segregation. In my opinion. any
statute or ordinance which re-
quires CLIO organizations or bodies
to practice segregation in any
form are void because they
violate the Constitution of the
United States"

President Truman has said that
he will veto any bill that fails to
develop new revenue to erase any
losses from excise cuts. The COM
mite already has voted tentatively
to trim the excuses on such things
as furs, jewelry. luggage, toilet

Some tax law managers have
voiced the opinion that, in view
of the long task in writing the

But Chairman George of the
Senate Finance Committee said
today that if the House will pass
a measure within two or three

JAKARTA. Indonesia, May 49,
Indonesian troops under Dutch
command and native soldiers of
the army of the United States Of
Indonesia clashed Monday morn
ing in Makassar. it was learned
today. More than 80 casualties,
half of them civilians. were re-
ported.
The number of dead was not
stated.
After the outbreak of shooting,
Dutch commanders ordered their
native troops to their barracks.
Dutch and Indonesian officers
meeting with. a neutral United
Nations military observer brought
the situation under control.
The Dutch-commanded 1ndo-
nesians involved in the clash are
members of the Dutch Army in
the Indies who have not been
transferred yet to the central In
donesian Army command. Con-
siderable bad feeling has existed
between these troops and those of
the federal Indonesian govern
ment. $
This resulted in a rebellion in
Makassar. the capital of the state
of East Indonesia, in early April.
when federal government troops
sought to garrison the city.
Similar troops also have carried
out two rebellions on the island Of
Ambon in the East Molucca chain.

In Wave Of Taxi HoIdups

James L. Hedgepeth, 21-year-
old restaurant busboy. arrested in
connection with the recent wave
of taxicab holdups, yesterday was
held for grand jury action under
$4,000 bond by United States
Commissioner Cyril S. Lawrence
The commissioner set a $4,000
bond in each of three charges of
robbery. and 5000 bond on each
of three charges of committing a
crime of violence while armed.
Hedgepeth, who is colored and
lives in the 100 block of Sixth
street Sc. was arrested yesterday
in a North Capitol street restau-
rant, where he was employed.
Police believed the arrest of the
man will bring to an end the
series of holdups which followed
the same pattern. with a colored
man taking a cab in the down.
town area and giving an address
east of the Anacostia River, in
the No. IA Precinct.
The destination was not always
the same. but the ride always
ended with the passenger taking
money from the cab driver at
gunpoint.
Hedgepeth. who police said has
admitted some of the crimes, was
arrested by Detectives Thomas
Barbour and M. A. Lewis.
