Pacific commander, the Senator's
bitterly criticized the administra-
tion's Far Eastern policy as "a
catastrophe failure" They
charged that the loss of China to
the Communists was due to the
Yalta agreement and "appease-
ment." and on the current peace
negotiations in Korea warned:
''We should be on our guard
against any Munich-like respites
which are only surrenders in dis
guise and which make the ulti-
mate reckoning infinitely more
costly"
Heated Replies Expected.
The report, which is expected to
bring quick and heated replies
from administration leaders, was
signed by Senators Bridges of New
Hampshire, Wiley of Wisconsin,
Smith of New Jersey. Hickenloop-
er of Iowa, Knowland of Cali
fornia. Cain of Washington, Brew
ster of Maine and Flanders of
Vermont.
The outspoken views of the Re-
publicans also:
/. Acknowledged that President
Truman acted within his Con-
stitutional powers in relieving
Gen. Macarthur, but denounced
as utterly inadequate" the rea-
sons given for the removal of the
Far Eastern commander. 1.-THE
Justification" it was said. seems
to have been built up after the
removal rather than before"
2. Charged that Mr.. Truman
has done nothing" 20 help Con-
gress rid the State Department of
Communist influences which they
said affected this country'S Far
Eastern policies and added:
There can be no confidence, no
unity OF purpose until the
Executive demonstrates the desire
to remove from our national insti-
Itutions those who seek to destroy
America.
3. Concluded that the State De-
partment must accept RESPONSE
bility for what they called "the
abject failure" of the country's
Far Eastern policies and said that
Secretary of State Acheson is "as-
sociated with a long series of vacil-
lation and equivocations. the net
result of which has been to en-
courage Communist aggression. +"
War Risk No Greater Now.
4. Indirectly called for more
vigorous action to bring victory
in Korea without specifically in
dorsing Gen. MacArthur's pro-
posals by declaring that the risk
of precipitating another world
war is no greater now than it was
when the United States inter-
vened more than a year ago. "It
is utterly inconsistent" the Sem
ators added, "for the administra-
tion to take the calculated risk of
provoking Russia in Europe and
to cover at taking a similar risk
in Asia"
5. Charged that the admins
tration has been "unduly preoc-
cupied" with the defenses of West
ern Europe to the neglect of Asia
and called for the United States
with the United Nations back
ing-to ''go ahead and crush the
aggression in Korea where the
Communists began it,"
6. Charged that some American
officials were so opposed to Chang
Kai-shek and the Chinese Nation
alists that they were "automatical-
ly on the side of the Red regime. :"
The Senators suggested some con-
gressional committee should inves-
tigate this matter and recommend
remedial legislation to prevent the
personal feelings of some dlplo-
mats ito thwart the policy of their
Government"

Capital Transit Asks
Permission 10 Run
Bigger Buses Here
Company Says Extended
Length, Width Would
Help Reduce Traffic

The Capital Transit Co. today
filed a formal request with the
District Commissioners for per-
mission to operate bigger buses
here.
Intention to file the petition was
first voiced by company officials
at the transit service hearing two
weeks ago.
Ina letter signed by the COM
pany president, j. A. B. Broad
water. Capital Transit today de-
clared larger buses would ZEN
hance the convenience and COM
fort" of passengers, offset the
present shortage of drivers and
tend to relieve traffic congestion
by reducing the number of buses
in the traffic stream each day.
E. c. Giddings. vice president
of the utility, added that the big
ger vehicles would permit more
economical operation as well.
Five Feet Longer.
The new buses would be five
feet longer than the present 35-
foot type, as well as six inches
wider than the present eight-foot
width. They would accommodate
10 more sitting passengers, or a
total of SIS, as well as five more
standeeS per bus.
The larger vehicles cost about
$40, 900 each, or about $4,000 more
than the present size. according
to Mr.. Giddings. The petition did
not mention the number of new
type buses the company has in
mind, but MIR. Giddings said the
figure would be substantial.
There are now 835 Capital Transit
buses in operation in the area.
and Mr.. Giddings indicated that
if the new type vehicles are al
lowed some of the old ones will
probably be retired from service
or reasSigned.
The petition states that the new
type would operate over such
heavily-traveled lines as the Ben
ming, Sixteenth street, Connecti-
cut avenue and Anacostia- Con-
gress Heights.
1--WE feel that the traffic situa-
tion on the streets on which such
lines operate make use of the new
type bus entirely practicable" Mr..
Broadwater said in his request. He
added that if the traffic regula-
tions are changed as he asks to
permit the bigger buses, the COM
pany will start placing orders
promptly"
Practically Demonstrated.
The company president pointed
out that 10 States now permit
bus widths greater than 8 feet,
and that 81 States allow buses
of 40 feet or more.
Mr.. Broadwater added that it
has been actually demonstrated"
that operation of larger type
buses than the normal size As
seat vehicle is practical" He
pointed out that trolley coaches
of the larger size have been in
use in numerous cities for many
years. He said that more and
more cities are introducing such
big capacity buses to their trans
port system.
Cities having 40-foot by 8-foot-6
buses include Chicago, Los An
|geles, Cleveland. Toronto and Gin
cinnati.
Mr.. Giddings pointed out that
during the war a single larger
bus was used here experimentally
by Capital Transit Co. This
however, he said, was an "articu-
lated" type-a two section job
linked by a flexible midsection--
which operated for time on the
Glover Park run as well as to the

His appeal, amplifying one made
Saturday in statement to news
papers, came as District and
Maryland law enforcement Off

interstate gambling activities.
Senator Wiley said the interest
displayed in his week end an
Inouncement demonstrated that
there is clear recognition of the
need for a follow-through on the
inquiry begun by the Senate Crime
Committee which expires Septem-
ber /.
"The testimony before our SEN

Wiley said, adding that there have

lots more of the same awaiting

trict to date has probably barely
scratched the surface"
In committee testimony last
week, Sheriff Carlton G.. Beall of
Prince Georges County said he had
been offered $4,000 a month in
return for protection of the
Charles E. Nelson gambling ac-
tivities.
Nelson, horsebreeder and ad-
mitted numbers backer, lives at

ment center at North Beach, in
Calvert County. He was pictured
by Senate Committee as operator

Senator Wiley said today the
Federal responsibility in the Dis
trict situation is clear.
Crime in the District is in
extricably tied up with vice and
corrpution in adjacent Maryland
and Virginia counties, as well as
IN other areas" he declared.
II am delighted, of course, to
note the numerous Investigations
now underway by United States
Attorney Fay's Office, etc.. but I
do not think the legislative
branch's responsibility will be
complete in this respect until a
committee of the United States
Senate has carried on to a much
more advanced stage it's review
of this criminal cancer.
1.-THE people of the District
have a right to expect such a
complete review.
"We here in the Congress are
supposed TO be the city fatherS
of the District. If we are good
fathers we will carry this matter
through rather. than stop here in
the third inning so to speak.
Nelson Reported Returning.
There we're increasing indica-
tions that Nelson soon would be
available for questioning by the
grand jury here. Mr.. Fay said he
understood" Nelson is returning
from Atlantic City.
Meanwhile, Prince Georges
County Police Chief F. Allen

Word was received in Mime

only to be plagued with injuries
or close decisions, some of which
could have gone in favor of either
boxer.
When the heat of the quarter
finals had diminished, st. Paul's
lead was cut to six boxers. The
rest of the story is the most thrill
ling part.
In the finals of the eight re-
naming fighters who were
crowned champions, four were
from the st. Paul team. They
proved to be the class of the
Tournament. Out of these four it
is difficult to tell who had the
hardest time.
Dave Sotelo, a nifty little boxer
with Knockout potentiality in
either hand, had a rough road to
travel. Milt Hanson, Minneapolis;
Dwight Johnson, Mankato; Tim
McCullen, Excelsior were all good
scrappers with sudden explosion
in either hand, also Sotelo's
toughest and most trying time
was at the hands of Darrell Char
on of the Devils Lake team in the
finals. Sotelo had to call on all of
his reserve strength and excep-
tional ring generalship to out
point Charon. The fans didn't like
the decision, but there was no
doubt on the judges part as to
the verdict.
One of the biggest upsets of the
semi-finals was the TKO of Yves
Hayden of the Minneapolis team
by Bill Pinkus of the SANITY City
team. Hayden in previous bouts
had shown a two listed attack
which was the nemesis of OPP
ponents Bob Hendrickson of
Brainerd and Clyde Volkenant Of
Willmar. Pinkus, in both boxing
and punching had been no SLOUGH
either. The husky middleweight
knocked out Dean Knapp, Wape-
ton, N. d. and Swede Linde in
his previous bouts.
After taking most of Hayden's
Sunday punches, Pinkus went to
work on Hayden's stomach with
damaging effect. His accurate
left hooks to the stomach put
Hayden down four times.
Hayden, although still very
dangerous in hitting power was
no match from there for the
sharp, hard hitting Pinkus. He
went on to defeat Doug East
house of Mound on the Hastings
team in the finals.
Easthouse almost pulled an up
set after being given very little
chance of defeating Pinkus. The
young middleweight showed no
fear Of Pinkus and used a sharp
left jab with a right cross stag
gering Pinkus several times, but
the Mound boy was unable to stay

Firm Points To
Nets Anti-Negro
Policy Thru Years

Chicago-(ANP) - The little
Negro Metropolitan Mutual Life
Assurance company Numbered ac-
cusations of an adamant anti
Negro attitude of the giant Met
ropolitan Life Insurance company
of New York this week in their
battle of names for the title.
Metropolitan.
Metropolitan Mutual, a Chicago
firm worth $4,000, 900 told of this
bias in answer to a suit filed two
weeks ago by Metropolitan Life, a
New York business worth four
billion dollars. The white firm,
said to be the worlds largest in
surance firm. is seeking to pre-
vent the Negro firm from using
the name, Metropolitan.
In its suits, the billion dollar
company declared that the small
firm was using the name to con-
fuse prospective clients and to
any Negro agents at present.
Metropolitan Mutual exploded
the racial attitude of the white
company in its answer, pointing
out that the white firm did not
seek Negro business in the past,
nor did it have nor does it have
any Negroes at present.
In its counterattack, the Negro
firm makes the following state
ments concerning Metropolitan
LIES policy towards Negroes in
the past:
/. a.. The plaintiff does not
nor ever has employed Negro
agents to solicit business and
risks among the Negro people in
Chicago and Cook county, Ill.
2. a.. The plaintiff company,
for many years prior to the in
corporation of the defendant, and
for many years thereafter, de-
clined and refused to accept Ne
groes as risks and to issue in
dividual industrial and ordinary
policies upon the lives of Negroes
upon the same terms and condi-
tons as it did for people of other
races
3. a.. The plaintiff declined
and refused to accept Negroes as
