In MemOriam

In loving memory of our daugh-
ter, Jean Marie Nicholson on her
birthday, September /.
No stain was on her little heart,
Sin had not entered there,
And innocence slept sweetly on
That pale, white brow so fair.
She was too pure foc this cold
earth,
Too beautiful to stay,
And so Gods holy angels bore
My darling one away.

L Street Bridge Plan
Illegal, 3'TeIID.C.
Heads al Meetinu

AS District highway officials
dolefully listened in, opponents
Of the proposed E street bridge
across Theodore Roosevelt Island
yesterday denounced the propo-
sal as illegal and immoral.
The spokesman were Maj. Gen.
U. S. Grant. III, and Maj. Gen.
Frank r. Mccoy. both represent
ing the Roosevelt Memorial AS
ISOLATION, and Conrad L. Wirth,
director Of the National Park
Service.
The city's highway department
favors the bridge as a link be-
tween Washington and Airing
ton to relieve traffic congestion
on the other central area Poto-
mac River crossings. The E street
site. however. would mean cross
ing the island, which was once
owned by the Roosevelt Asso-
citation.
The association, in 1882,
handed the island over to the
Federal Government for devel-
opment as a memorial wild-life
sanctuary in a special agreement
with Congress.
. The three opponents spoke at
length on this agreement at
their meeting yesterday with the
city heads. They cited a clause
specifying that the Government
cannot develop the island in
any way without the specific ap-
prevail of the Roosevelt Associa-
ton.

AirIines' Mechanics Quit
Briefly in Pact Deadlock

Capital .Airlines' mechanics
walked off the job for a brief
time here and in Pittsburgh to-
day as their contract negotiations
remained deadlocked.
Company officials said all OF
the men returned to work in a
few hours. There was no inter-
ruption of service in the airline
which flies routes in the East
and Midwest. ... ~
A spokesman for the company
said the action appeared to be a
"hexing of muscles" for an effect
on the contract talks. The con-
tract talks are between the
International Association of Ma
chiniStS and the seven largest
airlines, but the walkout affected
only Capital.
The next negotiating session
is set for June 2. Union officials
could not be reached for COM

Nehru Talks With Naguib;

CAIRO. Egypt, May 29.-1n-

a Commute conference with
Egypt's Premier Maj. Gen. Mo-
named Nagu1b. said today there
was a way of settlement" for
the bitter Anglo-Egyptian dis
pute over military control of the
Suez Canal.
Prime Minister Nehru, who
stopped off briefly in Cairo en-
route by air to the coronation of
Queen Elizabeth II in London,
did not specify what it was.
Premier Naguib told reporters
1t would be natural" for the
Indian leader to support Egypt in
the case.
The Prime Minister said he be-
lieved in the possibility Of a solu-
ton despite the recent breakof
of talks between Britain and
Egypt on the issue.

United Nations condemned the
aggression and called for re-
sistance against the Reds. It
was technically under the sane
ton Of this call that the United
States sent sea, air and land
power into the fight on the side
Of the South Koreans and that
the United Nations command,
covering the troops of many ma
tions. was organized. Mr.. Rhee
placed South Koreans under this
command to assure q unified
direction.
ROKS are Formidable.
In the last year or so, the
United States has concentrated
on building up South Korean
forces and these are now sufi-
GENTLY strong, numbering about
is divisions. so that if they were
ordered to follow . political
party different from that of
other allied forces fighting the
Communists, the result would be
a disastrous confusion and con-
dict Of operations.
If United Nations troops
stopped fighting and Syngman
Rhee's forces did not, the Reds
would have grounds for charging
that the armistice to which they
had agreed was ineffective on the
United Nations side.
Mr.. Rhee has been pressing his
case particularly hard this week,
probably for two reasons. He
may believe there is now serious
possibility that the Reds will
agree to an armistice. He may
also believe he has more politi-
