Beach Answers
All Questions
By Murray
Chief Fails to Soy
II Explanations
Are Satisfactory

The willingness of Police In.
spector Beverly C. Beach to an
swer questions put to him by
Chief Robert v. Murray ap-
parently insures the suspended
officer against any charges Of
insubordination.
Chief Murray told reporters
yesterday that Inspector Beach
had replied to about 100 ques-
tions which were asked about
testimony before the Senate
Crime Investigating subcommit-
tee in 1852.
No Answer Refused.
The chief said the suspended
policeman did not refuse to an
SWer any questions posed during
two closed conferences Friday
and third conference yester-
day.
Thus, Inspector Beach's fu-
ture with the Police Department
may hinge on the quality of his
answers. Unless he satisfactorily
explained his extensive cash
transactions. Chief Murray could
order him to appear before q
police trial board.
The Senate crime probers said
Inspector Beach did not give
them satisfactory answers. They
said the same thing about In
spector Albert /. Bullock.
Bullock Dismissed.
The latter also was suspend
ed. When called before Chief
Murray to explain his financial
af1uence, Inspector Bullock re-
fused to answer a large number
of questions. He took advantage
of rights guaranteed by the Fifth
Amendment to the Constitution.
But this retusal-which In
spector Beach carefully avoided
led Chief Murray to cite him
for INSTRUMENTATION, among other
things. Inspector Bullock was
found guilty by trial board
and has been dismissed from the
department.
Chief Murray refused to pre-
dict when the Beach case will
be concluded. He indicated, how
ever. that most or all of the
questioning is completed.

leans is like any other boy in
Spain. The difference is that
his company is restricted to is
fellow students; he's watched
over by eight Franco security
guards, and he may even
tually be seated on the Span
iSh throne with Francois
blessing.
The fact that the young
pretender to the throne is
allowed to live in Spain at all
is considered one of history's
political curiosities, since the
monarchy was ousted by the
Spanish Republic in 1881,
forcing Juan's grandfather,
AlphonSo, out of the country.
Franco. however, is repeatedly
partial to the monarchy, and
had proposed in the middle
'40S that AlphonSo'S son, who
was living in Portugal, come
back to take his royal seat.
But disagreements soon arose,
so a pact was struck by the
two men that the 14-year-old
Juanito, as he is known, be
considered in line for the sue
cession, provided he receive a
thoroughly Spanish education
in Spain proper-along with
some political indoctrination.
While his father lives in the
Estoril section of Portugal,
the teen-aged Juanito and
his handpicked classmates
many of them sons of the
lesser aristocracy-are going

PAGES in a special school

at San Sebastian, built origi-
nally by the boys grand
mother, Queen Christina of
Austria.
Though Francois law of
succession" states that a po-
tential monarch has to be 80
before ascending the throne,
the old rule among royalty
places the age at 16. Whether
JuanitQ ever ascends the
throne or just turns out to be
another boy with a good edu-
cation is anybody's guess.

the Army faces a troubled future
in the House this week because
Of committee cuts in Eisenhower
administration requests.
The House Appropriations
Committee, in a three-hour ses-
sion, slashed 1925 million or IS
per cent, from the $498.6 million
recently suggested in the Presi-
dents revised budget for those
operations.
The committee Topped $267.3
million from the Truman budget
requests. The committees total,
moreover. was $168 million less
than total expenditures avail
able for the current fiscal year
ending June 80.
Carrying Fights to Floor.
To achieve those cuts the COM
mittee diSallowed or greatly
trimmed numerous flood control
or navigational projects in many
parts of the country. Commit
tee members, including some Re-
publicans, repeatedly attempted
to restore various sums. After
being voted down, they served
notice they would carry their
fights to the House floor this
week.
The big battle in the House
seemed likely to center on a
committee reduction of almost
II per cent in Eisenhower Ad-
ministration request for flood
control and river and harbor
propects of the Army Engi-
neers. The committee approved
a total of $398,884,100. Former

that by 1916 per cent.

Army Civil Bill Faces Trouble

lively to add more than $6.5 mil
lion to the 50 billion supply bill
for those two departments. Earl
ier in the week the House tackled
SO million onto an Agriculture
Department bill for which the
Appropriations Committee had
recommended $703.3 million.
The committee majority de-
Tended its action on the civil
functions will by explaining that
unexpended funds from previous
appropriations might be used by
the Army Engines to care for a
realistic construction program
for most of the deleted projects.
Several of the deleted projects
had been urged in the Eisen-
hover administration revised
budget. The committee report
did not indicate where any of
the unobligated balances might
be applied.
Soldiers Home Total Raised.
OF particular interest to the
District were items relating to
the Soldiers Home. The COM
mittee approved total of $4,-
1000 for the home. This was
about $85,000 more than the
Eisenhower revised budget re-
quested and approximately $1.2
million more than was available
for the present fiscal year.
The committee specified that
$570,000 of the appropriation for
the Soldiers Home go for con-
struction of buildings and facil-
tiles and another $525,000 for
renovation and expansion of the
existing boiler plant.
Although the committee did not
mention the earlier requests, 1t
was recalled that Col. D. c. Cor
diner, acting governor of the
home, recently told the commit
tee at a closed hearing that a
S155,000 cut proposed at that
time by the Budget Bureau might
prevent the home from providing
ITO beds.
Superintendent Dropped.
AS for Arlington National Gem
etery. the committee said it saw
no need for two superintendents,
one an Army colonel and the
other civilian. 1t struck out
authority for employment of the
Army officer.
While decreasing the appropri-
alton for national cemeteries
from $6 million to $4.8 million,
the committee allocated an ad-
ditional $576 million for head
stones. Lack of funds during the
remainder of the present fiscal
year has been so acute that Ar
lington Cemetery was unable to
buy headstones. It asked for ad-
ditiOnal money to catch up with
a big backlog as we'll as handle
new applications.

along with her heirlooms and period pieces,

The other night, when she turned on her TV
and settled down for an evenings quiet enter
tainment, she ran smack into commercial
that was plugging a certain brand of instant
coffee.
The pleasant, smiling announcer really
sounded sincere. He said the stuff he was talking
about tasted just like real coffee-you could
not tell the difference So-always hoping for
the best-Mrs Honeywell wrote this brand
of instant coffee on her shopping list and picked
up jar of it at her grocer's the next day.
She decided to try it out that evening on some
friends she had invited for dinner. And right
there was when her faith in human nature was
shattered once and for all. That man in the
commercial she said, could neUer have tasted
real coffee in his life i. else he would never
have said what he did, about his brand of
instant coffee tasting like the real Mccoy. It
certainly didn't, she declared, taste like the
real thing.
Now the Wilkins Coffee Family would never,
never have stated, or even implied, that even
Wilkins Instant Coffee tastes just like real
coffee. On TV, or anywhere else.
We make an instant coffee, and we believe
it's the finest instant coffee in the world We
have thousands of reasons for our belief, be-
cause many thousands of people have switched
to it, from whatever else they were drinking
before.

HoWeUer, we do say this:

The Wilkins Coffee Family guarantees you'll
like our instant coffee better-in this way Go
to your food store and buy jar of Wilkins
Instant Coffee. Compare it any way you want
for taste-aroma-fa any other in
slant coffee you know regardless Of price, rs-
gardless of trade name or brand.
Then, if you decide Wilkins Instant Coffee
hasn't got these other brands beat by country
mile, send the unused portion back to us, AND
WE WILL BUY YOU 2 JARS OF ANY
OTHER INSTANT COFFEE YOU NAME.
And while you're comparing instant cofees,
compare this Wilkins guarantee with the TV,
newspaper and magazine claims you're hearing
and reading every day.
We beleve-ike Mrs. Honeywell of Alexan-
dria-you will draw your own conclusions.

But, we would never, never say that even

Regular Coffee. Nonsense. There is no such
substitute. No instant coffee tastes as good as
Wilkins Regular. That's a statement you
can paste in your hat for ready reference
every time some instant coffee maker tries to
tell you something different.

Folsom Says US. Will Run $712 Billion In Debt
 Unless Spending Is Cut

NEW YORK, Rl-UnderSe of the Treasury Marion Folsom said Thursday the government will run at least 71a billion dollars in the red next year unless spend ing is chopped.
 The deficit could be as much as 9A billions, Folsom said, if Con- gress refuses to extend corpora ton and excise tax rates sched- uled to fall off next spring to the pre-Korea level.
 But, he said, "it is hoped suffi- cient spending deductions can be made so that the actual deficit will be considerably below' the 71z billion dollars he predicted if spending is not cut.
 Folsom's forecast, for the fiscal year beginning next July 1, was based on estimates of revenue losses expected to result from scheduled tax cuts. These start Jan. 1, with a 10 percent drop in personal income taxes and aboli- tion of the excess profits tax on corporations, and continue with the April 1 excise and corporation tax cuts.
