Draft Bill Strategy Revised
In Effort to Win New Votes

or leave it, as submitted. 1t could
make no changes.
Mr.. Vinson told the House yes
terday he would urge a change to
guarantee Congress the right to
amend the program in any way,
and to require that the program
be approved by concurrent resolu-
tion before any men could be in
Quoted into the UNIT corps.
The most important part of the
new proposal is elimination of the
I60-day provision, which would
have put the burden on Congress
Ito halt operation of the program
If it didn't like it. Under the new
proposal. entire new congressional
enactment. in effect. would be re-
|quired to put the actual program
in effect. .
With approval of even the
watered-down version of UNIT,
however, some change could be
made when the draft bill reached
conference with the Senate. The
Senate's approval of UNIT merely
authorized commission to draw
up details of the training, which
could be started when either Con-
gress or the President decided to
stop inducing men for actual
military service.
Aptitude Test Amendment.
Meanwhile, the move to kill the
college student aptitude test will
come in an amendment by Rep
resentative Kilday, Democrat, of
Texas, second ranking majority
member Of the Vinson committee
MIR. Kilday said his move would
continue the Presidents power to
grant deferments, but forbid use
of any national test to qualify
men.
Only three weeks ago, however,
the committee in it's draft bill
report gave strong Endorsement OF
the plan and told Selective Service
Director Lewis B. Hershey to go
ahead with it.
The aptitude test is part of q
double -barrelled plan to defer stu
dents. Aside from the test, stu
dents can qualify for deferment
if they rank in the upper percent
ages of their classes.

Crockett had been sentenced in
New York to serve four months

However, Mr.. Crockett has ap-

Judge Holtzoff allowed Mr..

Jury in Patterson Trial
For Contempt Hear
Committee Clerk


The prosecution expected to fin
ish presenting testimony late to-
day in the District Court trial OF
William L. Patterson, executive
secretary of the Civil Right Con-
gress, on contempt of Congress
charges.
The trial began yesterday be-
fore a jury of six men and Six
women. Judge Alexander HoltIof1
is presiding.
Patterson, who is colored, S be-
ing tried on two-count indict-
ment. accusing him of failing to
lproduce certain records of his
Organization before the House
Committee on Lobbying Activities
last August. The committee sought
records relating to finances OF
Patterson's organization and ac-
tivities of it's officers, employees
and others pertaining to legisla-
ton.
William Earl Griffin, who was
clerk of the committee at the time
it was conducting its inquiry. was
scheduled to return to the stand
today. He began testimony yes
terday afternoon as the first
prosecution witness.
Racial Issue Banned.
Assistant United States Attor-
ney William Hitz said he may not
call any other prosecution wit
neSSes.
Judge Holtzoff several times
yesterday stopped Defense Attor-
|ney George w. Crockett of De-
troit, one of the three defense
counsel, and ordered him to con-
fine his statements to trial issues.
Once Judge Holtzof told Mr..
Crockett he was not going to allow
racial issues to be injected into
the case. This was after the at
torney had declared that Repre-
sentative Lanham, Democrat, of
Georgia, who had acted as chair
man of the committee part of the
time, was at odds with Patterson
over the Negro question:
AT one point during the opening
defense statement, a second de-
fense attorney, former Represen-
tative Vito Marcantonio, of the
American Labor Party, New York,
declared Patterson had been
framed" into contempt before
the committee. Judge Holtzoff
stopped Mr.. Marcantonio and ex-
planned that only one defense
attorney could make the opening
statement.
Attorney Marcantonio an
nounced that he will seek copies
|of the original transcript of the
hearing durinng Patterson's ap-
pearance before the House Com
mittee on Lobbying Activities, de-
claring a record brought into court
had been "doctored."
Subpoena Evidence Asked.
Judge Holtzoff ruled that the
prosecution witness, Mr.. Griffin
could refer to the record in court
to help him recall details of the
hearing before the committee
Judge Holtzof ruled, however
that either the original subpoena
served Patterson or certified
copy should be brought to court
so it can be introduced as evil
|dence.
Before selection Of the jury, a
lengthy argument ensued as tc
whether Defense Attorney Crock
lett should be allowed to take part

House managers of the contro-
versial draft bill prepared today
to make new bids for votes after
dropping blockbusters on the ad-
ministration's new college student
deferment program and plans for
a universal military training pro-
gram.
In moves to bolster chances for
at least a watered-down version
of UNIT, Chairman Vinson of the
House Armed Services Committee
/. Said he would ask the House
to approve the framework for a
UNIT program with the guarantee
that no men will be inducted for
lit until Congress says so.
2. Told reporters he would sup
port move to kill the national
aptitude test which the White
House has set up as basis for
granting student deferments next
month.
Other Provisions Face Fight.
Proponents of the measure
which would cut the induction
age to 1917. raise draft service
to 26 months and cut induction
standards-also face bitter fights
on other provisions. Opponents
particularly want to slap CELL
ing of 3.5 million men on the
armed forces, impose a limit on
life of the draft act and require
that no more troops can be sent
to the North Atlantic Pact army
without congressional authorize
ton.
Even with the major conces-
sion on UNIT, however, some
House members served notice they
will demand that UNIT be sepa-
rated entirely from the draft-ex-
pansion bill. -......
Representative Barden. Demo-
crat, of North Carolina, said
They'll have to take out UNIT
completely. It doesn't belong in
a draft bill"
UNIT would not be killed in the
new version proposed by Mr.. Vim
son. But the chances of its ever
going into force would be re-
duced drastically.
Would Set Up Board.
In it's present form the bill would
have Congress set up commission
which would recommend details of
a UNIT program. Then, that plan
would go into effect unless either
house of Congress specifically re-
jected it within so days after il
reached Capitol Hill. Congress
either would have to take the plan

No Changes Planned
In Times-HeraId Staff;
Mccormick Takes0yer

The Washington Times-Herald

Col. Robert r. Mccormick. who
also publishes the Chicago Tribune.
Col. Mccormick took over the
top post yesterday in succession
to his niece, Mrs. Ruth McCorm ck

vice president and editor.
Col. Mccormick announced that
William C. Shelton will cont cue
as general manager and Frank C.
Waldrop as executive editor, and
added there will be no changes in
the staff.
For Is minutes the publisher
chatted with Times-Herald Of

plenty of advice to give" based on
his newspaper experience.
Recalling how he had played a
prominent part in the success
stories of the Chicago Tribune and
New York Daily News, Col. NC
Cormick smilingly said:
Nov I'm 10, and I wanted to
send some one else down here from
Chicago, but they told me I was
the only one who could handle the
job"
Col. Mccormick was introduced
by Mr.. Shelton as "a newcomer on
our staff"
His decision to come to Wash
ington followed the resignation of
Mrs. Miller because of policy diff
ferences. Mrs. Miller took charge
of the newspaper in October. 1949.

In Prince Georges.
Prince Georges-The civil de-
fense director is one of the coun-
tvs most popular citizens, P. E
(Peck) Clark. But Mr.. Clark's pri-
mary duty is full-time county
agent. He devotes a few hours a
week to the defense work-at
night. Mr.. Clark, himself, believes
that Prince Georges, with about
100000 residents in a 485-square-
mile area. will require a full-time
director, if the program is to be
speeded up.
He asked $4,000 from the
county in the new budget, but the
Board of County Commissioner.
eliminated the item. This money
would have contributed materially
to carrying the program to the
average citizen. Department heads
meet once month to check or
developments.
Montgomery County-The di-
rector is Attorney Edward l.
Foster, who devotes spare time to
the CD movement. The county
however, retained Brig. Gen. G. F.
Wooley, U. S. A., retired, to super
wise the work on a full-time basis.
Local appropriations have been
made for Office administration
only and the Office has been

One bottleneck is first aid
training. Some improvement is
due soon with the addition of 25
instructors from class being
graduated this month. The State
headquarters has just directed
that 11-man rescue teams be re-
cruited for every $500 persons.
Gen. Wooley foresees difficulty
meeting this quota, since the
teams will require carpenters,
plumbers, electricians, welders
and mechanics, as well as laborers.
Open Friction.
There has been some open fric-
ton in Montgomery. Rockville in
sisted on organizing as an inde-
dependent zone, confining its ac-
tivity strictly to the corporate linn
its. In doing so, it has built a
system which is considered excel
lent by Federal authorities: but
the towns unWillingness to include
any of the surrounding rural areas
has added burdens to countrywide
preparations.
One of the most definite accom-
plishments in the area is the Or
ganization of radio amateurs in
Montgomery. A group headed by
Philip, F. Robinson of Bethesda
has reported that 260 radio hams
in the county are prepared to
swing into action on a moments
notice. They submitted a detailed
table Of organization, showing how
they will tie in with all working
forces in the event Of an emer.

H0MER5 ARE. 5WAT1ED OUT, p. {. LEAGUE
By Associated Press

The home run is mighty and prevails in the Pacific Coast League
 Home runs 30 of 'em in 28 games, are edging Stan Hacks Los Angeles club toward first place in the standing, while Portland, pace setter from the start. is showing signs of faltering and has now dropped five straight.
 Two booming homers by Max West, who used to fashion them for San Diego, drove in five Los Angeles runs last night as the An gels turned back the Padres, 6 to 3.
 Home runs by Jack Graham, also former San Diegan, and Catcher Ray Orteig gave San Francisco the series opener over Portland, to l. Portland's run was a homer, too, delivered in the fifth by Mary Dierks.
 Frank Kelleher hit a homer for Hollywood at Seattle but the Rain 1erS took 4 to 3 decision on the head first sliding of Outfielder Jim Rivera. He stole home on ponderous Pinky Woods after he had singled gone to second on wild throw of his hit and taken third on an in- field out. Hollywood had chance to win the ball game in the sixth with the bases jammed. Lou String CT singled in two runs but Rivera fired the ball in to start a double play that caught Ed Sauer going from second to third and Stringer trying to make second Kelleher then hit his homer - with the bases empty.
 Sacramento and Oakland were baked by rain.
