Farmer Loses Suit
To Bar Burke Airport

Judge F. Dickinson Let's today
dismissed a Virginia farmers
suit to block construction of
Burke airport.
The District Court jurist an
nounced his decision from the
bench after hearing morning
long arguments by Government
counsel and by attorneys for
Jones Jasper, who owns about 100
acres of land about 5000 feet
from the airport site.
Mr.. Jasper's lawyer, Charles F.
O'Neall. unsuccessfully contended
that Secretary of Commerce
Sawyer exceeded his authority by
acquiring Virginia land for the
airport to serve as a municipal"
airport for the District of Colum-
bia. Mr.. O'Neall added that if
the airport construction goes
through, his client will have no
legal remedy for the depreciation
of his land values and the danger
to people and animals on his
farm.
Mr.. o'Neall declared he will ap-
peal the decision.

Congress Completes
Action on Foreign Aid

Congress completed action today
on the $7.5 billion foreign aid
program for the current year, but
other major issues appeared likely
to keep the session going until
November /.
The last step on the foreign aid
bill was taken when the Senate
backed down on one amendment
which the House would not accept.
This action keeps the new admin
istrator of foreign aid from be-
coming member of the Board of
Directors of the Export Import
Bank.
The foreign aid authorization
now goes to the White House for
signature, but must be followed
by a separate appropriation bill
to make the money available. 1t
is still possible for Congress to
provide less in the money bill
than the enabling act authorizes
Meanwhile. Speaker Rayburn
indicated after trip to the White
House that Congress has little
chance of finishing it's work be-
fore November /.

Stassen Tells Hearing
FIotIy Challenges
DeniuIs of Acheson,
Jessup on Chino Aid
By GEORGE Beveridoe

Harold E. Stassen charged to-
day that a plan similar to that
which undermined" the Chinese
Nationalist government after
World War II now is being de-
Iveloped for the purpose of turning
India over to the control of Com
munists in that country.
In addition. he fatty chal-
Ilenged denials of Secretary Of
State Acheson and Ambassador
at Large Philip C. Jessup that
they never favored cutting off all
aid to Nationalist China, that
they did not favor recognition Of
the Chinese Reds and that they
never have been willing to turn
over Formosa to the Reds.
Mr.. Stassen made his charges in
his first appearance before Sem
ate Foreign Relations subcommit-
tee considering the nomination of
DR.. Jessup as United States dele
Igate to the United Nations Gen
.eral Assembly.
This Hearing Limited.
AS the session opened, Chairman
Sparkman recalled that Mr.
Stassen had testified at length be-
fore the Senate Internal Security
subcommittee. which is consider
ling the entire broad subject of
Far Eastern policy.
Our hearing is limited to one
Iquestion-that of the fitness of
DR.. Jessup to be a member of the
United States delegation to the
sixth General Assembly of the
United Nations" Senator Spark
man declared. He expressed the
hope testimony would be restricted
as much as possible to that point.
Mr.. Stassen. nevertheless. began
reading a statement. quoting at
length from the published diary
Iof former Defense Secretary
James c. Forrestal. which revolved
mainly around controversies over
who advocated what United
States policy toward China during
the years after the war.
Army Plan Rejected.
Mr.. StaSsen, former Governor
iof Minnesota and now president
of the University of Pennsylvania,
charged that the State Depart
ment forced rejection of an Army
Navy China plan after the war.
This plan, he said, favored sup
porting the Chinese NationaliSts
against the Japanese even though
this meant also supporting them
against the Chinese Reds.
One effect of rejection of the
military plan, Mr.. Stassen testi-
fed, concerned a proposal that
Japanese armies in Manchuria
should be marched directly to the
sea, there disarmed and repatri-
ated to Japan. The State Depart
ment disapproved. he said, on
grounds that for morale purpose

Truman Is Rebuffed
On 2Chicago Judges
By the Assoeioted Press

The Senate Judiciary Commit
tee today recommended rejection
of the nominations of two mer
whom President Truman named
for the Chicago Federal bench
over the objection of Senator
Douglas, Democrat, of Illinois.
The aim was to prevent the
President from seating them tenn
porarily while Congress is out
of session.
At a closed meeting the commit
tee voted against Mr.. Truman's
nomination of Cornelius j. Har.
rington and Joseph j. Drucker.
Senator Douglas, who had rec.
commended two other men, hac
gone before the committee anc
protested the manner in which
the nominations were made wa,
personally obnoxious" to him.
Later, the committee voted tt
pigeonhole the nominations. Thii
would have allowed Mr.. Truman
to give Mr.. Harrington and Mr.
Drucker interim appointments
after Congress adjourns. Senate
rejection now would mean Mr.
Truman won't be able to give
them interim appointments. n

As Royal Plane
Lands in Canada
Princess Elizabeth
And Party Greeted
By Lord Alexander
BY the Assoeiated Press

MONTREAL, Oct. 8.-Princess
Elizabeth and her husband, the
Duke of Edinburgh, came to Can
ada in a transatlantic plane
today for their first visit to the
North American continent. Their
great Cotton plane was sighted
over Dorval Airport here at 1881
am. CEST0
Ten minutes later the royal
couple stepped from the plane at
the airport, 16 miles outside Mon
treal. They were 10 minutes ahead
of schedule.
The governor general, Viscount
Alexander, was on hand to well
come them.
AS the huge American built
stratocruiser "canopus'' rumbler
into view over head, thousands of
Canadians massed at the airport
cheered Justify. A guard of honor
snapped to attention, to welcome
the royal couple on the first stop
of their tour, which will include
visit to Washington.
Sun Breaks Through.
The Princess and her husband
barely missed a drab, chill recep-
ton. Threatening clouds lifted
and the sun broke through only
a short time before the plane came
into view. Throughout the night
and into the morning a cold rain
had fallen, drenching the gay
flags and bunting with which the
airport was festooned for the oc-
casion.
The ace pilot of the British
Overseas Airways Corp, O. P.
Jones, had been flying at $4,000
feet, reporting fine weather above
the low-hanging clouds.
The spectators gathered slowly,
possibly discouraged by the wealth
er, but when the sun burst
through. the size of the crowd in
creased swiftly. massing outside
tall wire fence separating them
from the strip where the big royal
plane landed.
Greeted at Newfoundland.
The plane touched down at
Gander. Newfoundland, at 4:5O
am. (EST for refueling. There
the princess and the duke were
welcomed by a message from Sir
Leonard Outerbridge, lieutenant
governor of Newfoundland.
On a special siding at Dorval
Airport, the royal train chugged
in readiness. On its route from
the airport huge gilt arch had
been erected, and work still was
continuing on it only a couple of
hours before the planes arrival.
Laborers tackled up bunting and
ran up flags.
The road leading to the airport
was lined with big red. white and
blue posts. atop which were
crossed Union Jacks.
The huge blue and silver royal
airliner took off last night from
London airport for the month
long visit to this senior dominion
and to the United States. It
veered south of its scheduled
course to avoid rough weather.

BY Safeway Halted by
Material Shortages
NPA Lists Projects
Denied ALLEGATIONS
Of Steel, Aluminium

A Safeway Stores expansion
program in the Washington area
providing for the erection of IA
supermarkets at a cost of more
than s3.5 million has been halted
temporarily by shortages of steel
and other critical materials.
This was disclosed today when
the National Production Authority
issued a list of construction prof.
ects which have been denied al
locations of scarce steel, copper
and aluminium for use in the final
three months of this year.
The list included more than a
score of projects in this area,
amounting to more than $6 mil
lion, which will be delayed by
the scarcities.
Little Effect on Some Projects.
About an equal number. total
ing more than 81 million, were
listed as having been denied al
|lotments but the NPA action in
these cases are of little practical
effect. Either the buildings are
nearly completed or the builders
already have the needed metals
chiefly steel-already on hand.
In this latter category is the
SO million Perpetual Building As
sociation structure on E street
NV, between Eleventh and
Twelfth streets. 1t was explained
at the association that the nec-
essary steel is on hand not only
for the unit of the new struc-
ture now being erected at Twelfth
and E streets, but also for the
second unit which will replace the
present building at Eleventh
and E.
Other Projects Face Delay.
In addition to the Safeway
Stores. projects facing delays in
clude these:
The Moslem Mosque being built
at cost of SIS million at 2551
Massachusetts, avenue NV. It is
40 per cent completed. Stevens
Porter of the architectural firm
of Irwin S. Porter & Sons said
about 40.5 tons of steel are needed
for the roof girders. If the roof
cannot be completed promptly, he
said. mechanical equipment al
ready in place in the basement
may be damaged. He said the
application for the steel has been
refiled for allotment in the first
quarter of 1852.

showed every sign Of disintegra-

said, by the dilemma created oy
the incompetence, inefficiency
and stubbornness of the central
government - qualities which
made it very difficult to help

campaigns, of the instability of
their leadership and the appall-
ing lack of an organization to
deal with the vast and complex
economic and social problems of
China.
