Admiral King Urges
Blockade, Bombing
OF Communist China
By the Assoeioted Press

The wartime head of the
American Navy, Admiral Ernest
j. King, proposes blockade and
bombing of Red China to step
up pressure on the Communist
adversary in Korea.
The retired fleet admiral also
said, in a copyrighted interview
published yesterday by the mag
azine U. S. News & World Re-
port, he believed President-elect
Eisenhower would come up with
a workable solution" to end the
stalemate.
Admiral King added, Don't
forget the foot soldier must be
there to take advantage of the
results Of the bombing" but he
did not elaborate as to whether
he meant United States or Chi
nese Nationalist foot troops.
Proposals similar to Admiral
Kings have been made before
and strongly opposed by Army
and Air Force authorities, largely
on the ground that they might
enlarge the war and that the
terrain did not offer very at
tract1ve targets for bombing.

West End Citizens
Consider Merits of
Cemetery Taxes

Discussion ranged from pro-
posed revision of the tenement
regulations to the possibility of
taxing cemetery lots at a ses-
sion of the West End Citizens
Association last night.
The tenement matter led into
the question of whether there
are enough policemen to enforce
stricter regulations. Somehow,
this brought forth a proposal to
raise police and fire salaries.
But some one brought up the
small Federal payment to the
District as a stumbling block.
The group also criticized the
small amount the Federal Gov
ernment pays for water and the
large amount of non-taxable
property. both Federal and pri-
vate, in the city.
At one point, a member WON
dered whether cemetery lots
could not be taxed. "You pay
to get in them, don't you?" she
said.
In the end, the association in
dorsed both a larger Federal
payment and a raise for police
and firemen.
The meeting was held at 2003
I street NV, and was conducted
by Lester H. Steinem, president.

New Eisenhower Policy
On TeIevision Explained
BY the Assoeiotsd Pres,

James G. Hagerty. White House
press secretary, explained on a
television program yesterday why
President Eisenhower decided to
let television and radio into his
press conferences.
Mr.. Hagerty was asked about
the decision during a filmed in
terview on CBS' new series,
"State Of the Union"
"It was a simple and practical
conclusion. ",Mr. Hagerty replied.
"The President believes that tel
evision and radio goes into the
homes of the people Of the Uni
ted States and he believes we
owe an obligation to the people
Of the United States to bring the
actions, words and deeds Of the
President and this administra-
ton into the homes of the people
OF the country.
And we believe the easiest and
best way to do that Is through
radio and television and, Of
course, the newspapers.

Remington S Second
Perjury Trial May
Go 10 Jury Today
BY the Assoeiased Pres.

NEW YORK. Jan. 26.-The
second perjury trial Of William
w. Remington. former Govern
ment economist charged with
falsely denying he passed Gov
ernment secrets to Russia. may
go to a Federal Court jury today.
Testimony in the trial. going
into its 10th court day. was con-
cluded last Thursday before the
case was adjourned over the
week end.
Both Government and defense
attorneys are scheduled to make
their summations today before
a jury of IL men and one woman.
The panel will start its delibera-
tions after it hears Federal Judge
Vincent L. Leibell's charge.
Accused Of Perjury.
Remington 35-year-old former
Commerce Department employe,
is accused of committing perjury
on the witness stand at his first
trial here two years ago.
| He was convicted then of COM
mitting perjury before a Federal
grand jury in denying he ever
had been a member of the Com
munist Party. A United States
Appeals Court later set aside the
conviction on the ground the
charge to the jury by the first
trial judge, Gregory F. Noonan,
was vague in defining what con-
stituted Communist Party men,
bership.
The government then obtained
the five-count indictment on
which Remington now is being
tried. One of the counts con-
Germs the passing of government
secrets. The original charge is
not mentioned.
Government and defense testi-
mony at the two trials was SINH
lar in many respects. Key pros
ecution witnesses at both trials
were Remington's former wife,
Mrs. Anne Moos Remington, and
Elizabeth Bentley self admitted
former Soviet spy ring courier.
Remington Denied Charges.
Mrs, Remington said her form-
er husband had told her he was
a Communist Party member and
that she was with him when he
allegedly gave government Sc
crets to Miss Bentley.
Remington took the stand in
his own defense and denied the
charges, repeating much of the
same testimony which he had
given at the first trial and which
led to his current indictment.
If convicted on all counts in
the present indictment, Reming-
ton could get maximum SEN
tence Of Is years in prison and
$4,000 in fines. His original
sentence of five years and a So
600 fine, imposed by Judge Noon
an. was set aside in the Appeals
Court decision.

Eisenhower Is Urged
10 Pick Segregation
Foes for D. T.. Heads

President Eisenhower yester-
day was urged to select District
Commissioners who share his
belief that every vestige of seq
gregation in the Nations Cap
ital should be eliminated now.
The message was sent by the
District branch of the National
Association for the Advancement
of Colored People.
The Presidents attention was
directed to the recent decision
of the U. S. Court of Appeals for
the District of Columbia which
held invalid the old laws barring
racial discrimination in District
restaurants.
The President was urged to
use his influence for Congress
sional legislation and commits
sioners' regulations to outlaw
segregation and discrimination
here.
Negro Commissioners Asked.
The NAACP also called for the
selection of commissioners with
out regard to race. At least one
commissioner. the group added,
should be a qualified Negro "to
indicate a discontinuance of the
present systematic exclusion of
a large segment of our popula-
tion in the making of such ap-
pointments."
The group said it was making
these recommendations mot only
because of the obvious injustice
to minority groups who live in
and visit the Nations Capital,
but also because of the danger
to our world leadership in de-
mocracy as representatives of
other nations. many of them
predominantly non-white. relay
to their governments our prac-
tice of democracy"
Decision Called Tragedy.
The appeals court decision
was termed a tragedy for the
United States last night by Mrs.
Mary Church Terrell, chairman
Of the Executive Board of the
Co-ordinating Committee for the
Enforcement of the District of
Columbia Anti = discrimination
Laws.
On a radio program of the
Catholic Interracial Council,
Mrs. Terrell urged her listeners
to write or wire the Commits
sioners Immediately asking the
city heads to appeal the decision
and to re-enact anti-discrimina-
tion laws in a new ordinance.

Eisenhower Attends
First Church Service
As New President

President Eisenhower observed
his first Sunday in the White
House by attending church yes
terday.
Accompanied only by two
Secret Service agents, the Pres
ident joined a less-than-capacity
congregation at the am. serv-
ice in National Presbyterian
Church. which he has adopted
as his place Of worship during
his White House tenure.
Mrs. Eisenhower I'll.
Mrs. Eisenhower, who has been
suffering from a cold, remained
at home.
The pastor, DR.. Edward L. r.
Elson, preached on "The Trans
forming Vision" taking his text
from Proverbs 29-18, where
there is no vision, the people
perish"
"The height of q mans vision
is the real measure of his stat
ure." DR.. Elson said.
American Presidents have been
inspired by visions. he declared.
"Out in the frontiers woods.
a young man with a coonskin
cap had a vision of uplifted man,
and from Abraham Lincoln S
vision came a freer, united and
stronger people.
Recalls Dream of Wilson.
"And Woodrow Wilson, school,
ed in the Presbyterian faith and
in a sovereign God, compre-
hended a world of nations exist
ing in cooperative association,
and died with the dream resplen-
dent held aloft."
The minister also prayed that
the President be granted strength
and wisdom and that Washing
ton become a city of God.
The only change in the order
OF service yesterday was that the
congregation remained standing
after the benediction until the
pastor escorted the President
from the church.
