Judge CockHN May Consider
Revealing Juvenile Records
Would Discuss Requests by Police
For information on Young Offenders

Advised of Judge Cockrill's
statement, Police Chief Robert
v. Murray Immediately said he
would make the request when the
Council on Law Enforcement, of
which Judge Cockrill is a mem
Der, meets tomorrow night.
THE purpose is plain" Chief
Murray said. I'VE want to know
when and if a violator is on the
street"
Capt. John Ryan, head of the
Police Juvenile Squad, said he
had never requested information
on the disposition of cases be-
cause he understood he couldn't
get it. Like Chief Murray, he
emphasized how anxious police
were to have this information.
On the score of safeguarding
the information, Capt. Ryan said
juvenile records in his file are
open only to fellow law enforce
ment officers. If a boy wants
information about his past Of
fenses, Capt. Ryan added, the
Juvenile Squad will give him a
letter. Otherwise, he said, the
squad follows the same policies

The President promised to
take a look at the situation.
But he said rather chidingly
that the President of the United

ton and that it is difficult to do

to reach her side.
Horse Apparently Baked.
Mrs. Patton's riderleSs horse

group had left the Aver home
shortly before 8 am.
A physician, DR.. Peer P. john

Mrs. Patton's injuries immedi-
ately were recognized as fatal.
A preliminary report indicated
death probably was caused by a
skull fracture. She was rushed
from the bride path accident
scene to Beverly Hospital, where
she was pronounced dead on ar
rival.
Mrs. Patton's death was the
third tragedy in the immediate
family in recent years.

Asked whether he had received
any written resignation request
from the White House. Mr..

doubted whether President Eli

native of Chicago, has been
chairman of the commission
since it was created by Congress
in 1948. He had emerged from
World War II as a major in the
Air Force.
The commission was set up to
handle claims filed largely by
prisoners of war who were in
termed or went into hiding to
avoid capture during the war.
The commission is not to be
confused with the International
Claims Commission set up in
1949 to adjudicate claims of
American citizens whose prop
erty had been nationalized by
foreign governments.
That group went out Of busi-
ness last June with its Demo-
cratic commissioners charging

ToFind Out Red Plans,
President Declares
Must Determine Soviet
Intentions and Way to
Meet Them, He Says

President Eisenhower said to-
day that Russian development of
the hydrogen bomb makes it
more important than ever to try
to find out Soviet intentions to-
ward the West.
The problem of how to deal
with the situation is the cause of
more earnest study and prayer
full consideration by every one in
the Government than any other
thing that has occurred lately,
he told a news conference.
1t is an especially acute prob
lem for the Defense Department,
the President declared.
He added that it makes him
more interested than ever in
trying to determine whether the
Soviet Union really intends to
try to reach any negotiated un-
derStanding with the United
States in which all could have
confidence.
Will Inform Public.
The President said that when
he gets everything sorted out in
his mind and reaches conclu-
sionS about how to approach the
situation, he expects to go be-
fore the American people and be
very frank in telling them the
facts on which his study was
based and his conclusions.
Gen. Eisenhower emphasized
that the United States has only
one intention in the world and
that is peace. StreSsing that he
does not want any war, he said
that the only possible tragedy
greater than winning a war is
losing it.
He said he wants Americas
friends in the world to under
stand this country's desire for
peace, but said the necessity for
pfoVldln9 Tor our own security
sometimes causes misunder-
standings with people saying
that We have lost faith in the
conference table. Such things
are untrue, he added.
Studying Current Proposals.
Asked what he thought about
various current proposals for
international conferences, the
President replied that the State
Department is studying how
best to take advantage of any
opportunity for discussing world
problems with the Russians. He
indicated the conclusions have
not yet been reported to him
He emphasized that this Gov
ernment wants to do everything
possible to lower world tension,
but said he doesn't want to try
to do this in a way that might
make things worse instead of
better.

Extra Session on
Debt Ceiling Is
Held Unlikely
By Joseph A. Fox

President Eisenhower said to-
day that the administration has
no present plans to ask Congress
for a retail sales tax.
But he added that he was not
ruling out a manufacturers ex-
else tax. For that matter, he
was not ruling out anything.
In an apparently optimistic
mood over the current financial
situation of the Government,
Gen. Eisenhower also told his
news conference that he does not
expect to call a special session
OF Congress to consider legisla-
tion to raise the debt limit. Sep
tember tax receipts, plus admin
istration savings, would seem to
make the step unnecessary, he
said.
When Congress quit for the
summer, it was with the under
standing that it might be called
back before January to vote on
an administration proposal to
raise the debt ceiling from $275
billion to $500 billion.
Plan Killed by Senators.
The administration proposal to
boost the limits was killed in
the Senate Finance Committee
shortly before Congress went
home. Afterwards, Treasury
Secretary Humphrey told report
ers an effort would be made to
operate under the present limit,
but that it would not be possible
to tell until after the September
quarter tax returns were in
whether it could be avoided.
| Discussion of the fiscal situa-
ton touched off questions about
recurring reports that the ad-
miniStration was considering
imposition of sales tax to make
up for the So billion in revenue
that will be lost early in the
next year by dropping the excess
profits tax, the corporate income
tax, certain excise taxes and
cutting the normal income tax
10 per cent.
Gen. Eisenhower said the tax
program would depend entirely
on the prospective Government
outlay, and he didn't know what
that would be.
He said that for many years,
even before he was in a position
of authority in the Government,
he had opposed a retail sales tax
and that he still does.
The Treasury feels, and he
agrees, that the sales tax is a
field belonging to States and
municipalities, and that there is
no intent to act otherwise in
regard to it.
Secretary Humphrey said at
one time that the sales tax was
one Of 40 taX-raising devices
under consideration.
The President said that while
he had seemingly eliminated the
sales tax, he had not eliminated
the possibility that a manufac-
turers' excise tax would be i'm
posed, and then told the con-

is being studied by the Labor
Department. The President said
he would be advised on it by the

Preliminary Steps Needed.
Certain preliminary steps are
required and in the past, it has
taken about week to complete
the preliminaries before an in
junction may be obtained from
the Federal courts.
Thus, there seemed little
chance of keeping the strike
from starting.
The International Longshore-
mems Association, recently
ousted from the American Fed
Grafton of Labor, had announced
previously that noon was the
deadline for employers to meet
the union wage and other de-
mandS.

employers informed the lila at

Heavy Cost to Business.
The Commerce and Industry
Association here estimated that
a dock tie-up would cost business
SIS million a day in the New

New York'S mammoth port
also was concerned with the pos
sibility of violence between two
rival dock unions during a strike.

wharves.
The union rivalry-pitting the
International Longshoremen's S
Association QLA), recently
