He said the canon of ethics was
not binding on the press, and
asserted that the judges of the
Cuyahoga County Common Pleas
Court, as a group, had discussed
the canon at a meeting earlier
in the year, but had failed to
adopt it.
John j. Mahon, assistant
county prosecutor, argued that
there had been "Since last May
a rule in Judge Silbert's court
that no courtroom pictures
would be allowed. He declared
it was a reasonable order and
a reasonable rule" He said it
was not necessary for the court
to publish a rule in order to
regulate conduct in a court
room. q
Called Open Defiance
Judge Silbert. referring to- Mr..
Clifford, said it was a case of
"open defiance" He said Mr..
Giaimo was acting under Or
derS and that II might have
done the same thing under those
circumstances" Because testi-
mony failed to show Mr.. Thomas
knew of the picture ban, he
was convicted only of obStruct-
ing and delaying the August 20
proceedings.
The judge remarked that the
only question was whether the
court made an order, whether
it was reasonable, and whether
it was violated"
He said mo elected official
who is in his right mind gets
into an argument with a news
paper" but Judges must have
courage" He declared that if
the defendants felt there was
an invasion of freedom of the
press, they could have proceeded
'in an orderly way" by filing a
writ of prohibition.

whether such utterances present
a clear and present danger to
the administration of justice,
the high court held.
Cites Scripture.
In the sermon Mr.. Weston
concluded with these words
For it was the man from Cali
lee who said, No man can serve
two masters Matthew
6-24."
Mr.. Weston, in his sermon,
said, in part: Judge Mccarthy
holds his present office by virtue
of appointment by a State Legis-
lature which is under the domi-
nation of Senator Byrd. Judge
Mccarthy possessed the power to
fill vacancies when they occur
on our county board. If Judge
McCarthy's decision is sustained,
it will create vacancies on the
county board.
"Is the Judge who creates the
vacancies by his ruling the man

who should fill these vacancies?
I do not think so. Thus, l am
forced to the conclusion that
Judge McCarthy's decision CO.
incides with the interests of the
Byrd organization. 1t is true
isn't it? No man can serve two
masters.
At the time of the sermon, an
appeal was pending in the Fed
eral employe case before the
Supreme Court. The high court
subsequently upheld Judge Nc
Carthy and three board mem

ANUS Chiefs Agree
To Oppose U. n. Seal
For Chinese Reds
By Gurnett D. Homer

The United States. Australia
and New Zealand stood firm to-
day against admission Of Com
munist China into the United
Nations under present circum-
stances.
Agreement on this point was
disclosed after the initial ses-
sions yesterday OF the second
annual meeting Of the ANUS
council, set up last year under
the AuStralia-New Zealand
United States Security Treaty.
Secretary of State Dulles, Aus
tralian Foreign Minister Rich
ard G. Casey and New Zealand
Foreign Minister T. Clifton
Webb arranged to hear reports
Of military representatives on
common defense plans at the
second days session Of the coun-
Gil meeting today.
View Held Unanimous.
Off1cials said that each of the
three men took the view at yes
terday's session that there was
no question of the recognition
Of Communist China by their
Governments or admission of
the Peiping regime to the q. N.
under present circumstances.
It was understood the "pres-
ent circumstances" qualification
involves primarily the Korean
War, and achievement of a sat-
isfactory peace settlement in
Korea might change the atti-
tude of New Zealand and Aus
tralia. Although members of the
British commonwealth, those
two governments do not now
recognize Communist China as
does Great Britain.
Both Mr.. Casey and Mr.. Webb
told Secretary Dulles, informants
said, that his warning to the
Chinese Communists last week
against invading 1ndo- China
should serve to discourage fur
ther Communist adventures in
that area.
Welcome Legion Speech.
They referred to Mr.. Dulles
speech last Wednesday to the
American Legion in st. Louis in
which he warned that Red
China could not send its own
army into Indo-China without
grave consequences which
might not be confined to Indo-
China"
The Australian and New Zea-
land foreign ministers said the
speech was welcome in their
countries.
Officials said the council mem
bers gave particular attention in
their discussions to the situa-
tions in Korea and Indo- China,
recognizing the special impor-
tance to the security of the whole
Pacific area of successful re-
Sistance to communism in those
two countries.
They also exchanged views on
Soviet policies and tactics, espe-
cially since Stalin's death. Their
conclusions were not disclosed.
The council session was due to
resume at 10 am. today, with a
late afternoon meeting also like
~. Officials said it was possible
the conference might continue
tomorrow, although it had been
planned to wind il lIp f0flav.

Junior Navy Officers
Saved From Demotion
By the Assoeiofsd Press

President Eisenhower yester-
day signed a bill which will save
5,400 junior naval officers from
being denoted April l.
The measure was rushed
through Congress without oppo-
Sition when it was learned that
an amendment to last years
military appropriations bill
would mean lowering the ranks
of Navy lientenants and blocking
regular promotions for 5000
more Junior naval officers.
The 1852 amendment estab-
lished ceilings for the number
of officers each service could
have The bill which became law
yesterday maintains similar
limits on ranks above those of
Army Captain or equivalent but
removes ceilings for lower ranks.
1t also permits some increased
ratings to permit promotions of
military doctors and dentists.
The program lasts only until
July l. In the meantime, a
House Armed Services Subcom-
mittee has begun detailed closed
hearings to determine whether
the Officer Personnel Act, blue
print Of officer careers, needs
revision to prevent services from
acquiring too many high-ranking
officers.
