West Coast Operator
Gives Up Race Wire
BY the Associoted Press

SAN FRANCISCO, Mar. 21.-
Police Chief Michael Gaffey said
yesterday Stanley Cohen had told
him he was "all through" with
any connection with race wire
operations.
At the Senate Crime Commit
tee hearing in San Francisco
March 2, witnesses said Cohen
had paid $46,309 in 1949 to Con-
tinental Press of Chicago for a
race wire service which. theoreti-
cally, didn't exist in California.

Cohen with Senate
contempt citation for refusing to
testify concerning his operations.
Chief Gaffey told reporters that
Cohen told me he was finished
with his operations. I asked him
if he was selling out and Cohen
said, mo. I'm walking out"
Chief Gaffey said the big race
wire operates by teletype from
Chicago to Reno. In Reno race
results are taken from the circuit
and are telephoned to San Fran
cisco. That telephone number
or numbers-promptly relays the
information by telephone to 10
other stations, which. in turn,
relay them to 10 more until all
subscribers have been accommo-
dated.

s Mobile Negroes Sue
To Take City Job Tests
BY the Asseeiated Press

MOBILE, Ala. Mar. 21.-Six
Negroes are asking a Federal
Court to force the Mobile County
Personnel Board to give them Civil
Service examinations for public
Jobs.
Lawyers for the National Asso-
citation for the Advancement Of
Colored People filed a suit in Fed
Grad Court here yesterday. The
petition requested three things:
/. That the court declare racial
restrictions in such examinations
are unconstitutional.
2. That an injunction be issued
restraining the personnel board
from enforcing such restrictions.
: 3. Damages Of $4,000.
The suit said the six Negroes
were denied the right to take Civil
Service tests for police and fire
department jobs because they are
Negroes.
There was no immediate indica-
ton when the court will hear the
suit.

Premier Asserts Reds

KARACHI, Pakistan, Mar. Ill
Premier Liaquat Ali Khan told
Parliament today the arrest of
high-ranking officers early this
month thwarted a plot to estab-

the Communist pattern.
The conSpiratorS planned later

specifying which countries he
meant.
The conspirators, said the pre-
mier, planned to use force to
liquidate Pakistan's government
leaders. and to enlist the support
OF Communist revolutionary ele-
ments here to achieve their aims.
The premier made the statement

chief of staff was the ringleader.

premier. "All the other officers

support of the army or of the
people, but expected that sudden
and audacious blow struck at
critical moment would create tur-
MOL and confusion in the country.
of which advantage would be
taken by the conspirators.
THE Instruction, however,
would not have been quelled with

Some important elements of the
thoroughfare plan already have
been agreed upon. Others are be-
ing activated. But the commission

oressway network. In the plan,
our new bridges would be re-
~uired across the Potomac, and
four across the Anacostia River
to provide trans-river links in the
cobweb pattern.
Key Ring Routes.
Three key ring routes are pro-
posed. The first, or inner ring,
would form an eXpressway with a
radius of l to IA miles from the
White House. On the west. it
would follow Twenty-third street
and Riverside drive; on the south,
Independence avenue and F street
S.W.: on the east, Third street
and New Jersey avenue, and on
the north, approximately T or S
streets or beyond Florida avenue.
An intermediate ring. 3 to S
miles from the White House, would
be a freeway or express parkway,
following the right-of way now
being acquired for the Fort drive
within the District and west of
the Anacostia River. A location
in Arlington County that would
tie in a new Potomac bridge is
suggested about halfway between
Key Bridge and the Chain Bridge.
To the south, this intermediate
ring would cross the Potomac over
a bridge proposed at AleXandris.
The latter bridge is a principal
objective of the planning commits
sion.
The outer ring would be located
some 8 miles from the White
House outside the District. The

approves. In Maryland the pro-
posed alignment follows the cross
country freeway proposed by the
Maryland-N National Capital Park

Typical of eight expressWays are
the Baltimore Washington park
way. now under emergency con-
struction, and the Northwest free
way, being built from Frederick
Md, as a four-lane road. There
is no agreement yet on the route
lit would take in the District.
Freeway Split Suggested.
One suggestion is for the North
west freeway to split. Trucks
would 60 into the District via
Wisconsin avenue. Non CONNER

across the Potomac near Cabin

Other expresSWayS proposed in
the plan include the Annapolis,
Columbia and Northern freeways;
the Indian Head highway, Fort

the George Washington Memorial

Gas Tank Truck Blast
Sets Building Afire
BY the Associated Press

MERIDIAN, Idaho, Dec. 8. - A
loaded gasoline tanker exploded
and burst into a flaming torch in
the center of Meridian's business
district today.
The truck driver-Charles LutZ,
of Baker, Ore.-leaped from the
burning truck seconds before the
blast.
Meridian Police Chief Floyd
Rosecrans said Mr.. Lutz lit a
match in an effort to thaw out the
frozen valves on the gasoline
tanker. It caught fire.
Mr.. Lutz drove the truck away
from the service station at which
he was unloading his 5000 gallon
tanker in an effort to get 1t away
from buildings.
Chief Rosecrans said Mr.. Lutz
saw the Meridian fire station and
pulled up. The volunteer depart
ment was not manned so Mr.. Lutz
drove on in his flaming truck.
But the flames burned the air
hose on his brakes, sailing the
giant tanker. Mr.. Lutz said an
empty fuel tank burst open and
the gasoline tank caught fire.
Windows in a nearby building
were blown in and the intense
heat set fire to the interior. The
building was wrecked and the
roof collapsed before firemen
could control the blaze.

The surgeon said Mr.. Emmert
