A Thanksgiving clothing cam

APP Editors Pleased
With Action 10 End
U. 5. Secrecy Policy
By the Assoeiatsd Press

CHICAGO, Nov. THE Asso-
ciated Press Managing Editors
Association expressed gratif1ca-
ton today over the Governments
action in knocking out former
President Truman's rigid public
information restrictions and
pledged to continue the fight
against secrecy.
President Eisenhower issued a
new order Friday to give the
public a freer flow Of informa-
ton about their Government
without endangering national
security. Effective December Is,
the order replaces controversial
measure Mr.. Truman put into
effect September "a, 1851.
Nearly 300 Editors from all
parts of the nation wound up
their goth annual convention
in Chicago with this resolve:
"The task remains with the
APME Committee on Freedom
of Information to observe and
where necessary to act on devel-
opments under this new order
as we'll as to continue the fight
against secrecy by administra-
tive action, secrecy by legislation,
and secrecy in the legislative
process, especially at the Federal
level"
Fight on Truman Order.
The APME fought the Tru-
man order from the start. At it's
1851 convention in San Francisco,
the APME condemned the Pres
ident's executive order on secur-
ity classif1cations as "a danger
Gus instrument of news suppress
sion"
The association objected es-
pecially that the old order ex-
tended classification (secrecy
imposition) power to agencies
"having no need for this author
ity," permitted the delegation
OF such powers, failed to define
clearly and closely" each Sc
curity classification, and lacked
provision for a review of such
rulings by Government agen-
cies."
The association said the new
classification order meets many
of the objections raised. It noted
that the new order:
/. Limits to fewer agencies
the power to use security classi-
f1cationS to bar the release of in
formation.
2. Forbids the heads of II
agencies to delegate classifying
authority to anyone else.
8. Improves the definitions of
security classif1cations.
4. Provides for a review Of
classification operations.
BrOwnelI Wins Praise.
The APME said in a resolu-
ton:
These provisions constitute
substantial progress toward
system of security consistent
with the rights Of the people to
be informed fully of their gov
eminent for which the APME
asked two years ago. If these
provisions prove inadequate or
unsatisfactory in practice, we
are confident that as long as
agencies of government continue
to make a sincere effort to re-
concile this country's need for
information and the necessity Of
military security, remedies can
be found for any weaknesses
that develop"

General Brownell, who drafted

Police Crack Down
On Gamblers; Hold 5
In StOO Bond Each

Police yesterday adopted a
"get tougher" policy for gam
blerS.
The move is based on a long
standing police regulation where
by participants in gambling
games may have to post COL
lateral as high as $500.
Dice shooters and card play
ers ordinarily are ordered to post
SIS on disorderly conduct
charge. This is usually forfeited.
However, last night. in a game
that could be seen from the
street, five men casting dice were
booked under a count of "gamb-
ling in a public space"
They were held after failing
to post $100 each. Capt. Irving
limbaugh explained the gam
bling in a public space" charge
comes under the general collat-
eral regulations under which a
$500 maximum can be charged.
Those arrested following a
raid in the first block of Myrtle
street NE. were:
Irving Thomas, 10, of the 600
block Second street NV; Will
liam H. Baxter, 25, of the first
block of Quincy place NV;
John A. Terrell, A, of the first
block of Myrtle street NE; Rus
sell Taylor. %, of the 100 block
of Todd place NE, and Julius
(the Snake) Parker, 18, of the
first block of Fenton court NV.
The new strategy was the re-
suit of a conference Saturday
between Detective Sergt. Frank
BreaZeale of the Morals Squad
and Clark King, assistant corpo-
ration counsel.
Sergt. Breazeale had COM
planned to Mr.. King that some
times suspects picked up for
shooting dice were being rear
rested as little as half an hour
later for the. same offenSe.

Heavy Voting Ends in Italy;
Nations NATOLink at Stake

789 persons were eligible to vote.
In the last parliamentary elec-
tions in 1948, 92.1 per cent of the
eligibles voted.
The voters had turned out yes
terday and today to choose
among Premier de Gasperi's bloc
of four middle-o -the-road par
ties. communism and right-Wing
nationaliSm.
First returns are not expected
until later today with no Signifi-
cant trends developing before
tomorrow.
At stake were the $50 seats
in the Chamber of Deputies, 237
of the 243 Senate seats, and the
decision whether to continue
Italy along the NATO road for
five more years.
The alternatives were a re-
turn to the right-wing paternal-
ism of monarchy, reinstatement
of the braggart nationalism of
Fascism, or a move into the
political shadow of the Krem-
lin.
Despite the comparative public
calm, the cleavage among left
right and center cut deep.
At Montesca1oSe, a Communist
was arrested for trying to stop
his blind. 83-year -old mother
from voting for Premier de Gas
peri's Christian Democrats.
Near Reggie Calabria, a Com
munist fired five shots into a
cousin who planned to vote
Christian Democrat and had tried
to persuade the Reds wife to do
the same. The cousin was ex-
pected to live.

passed and are still enforceable.
Attorneys for the Thompson
concern and the Washington
Board of Trade contended that
the old assembly lacked authority
to pass the laws in the first place,
that Congress could not constitu-
tionally delegate such legislative
power. and that the statutes,
even if originally valid, were later
repealed or died from non-use.
/. Assistant Corporation Counsel
Chester H. Gray told the tribunal
that the ancient enactments were
discovered among documents in a
safe in the District Building.
They were really lost laws" un-
til he was asked in 1947 by the
late Charles Houston, a Negro
attorney here, to search for them,
he said.
VinSOn Comments.
"They were lost laws" Chief
Justice Vinson commented, "aS if
they were in a safe in your Office
and you had the key in your
pocket to find out what the laws
of the District were."
This prompted Justice Frank
furter to comment on a dis
closure by Edward F. Colladay,
attorney representing the Board
of Trade. Mr.. Colladay said a
codif1cation of District laws in
1901 was based to considerable
extent on a study of an 1894
compilation volume tucked away
in the rare books section of the
Washington Public Library.
Apparently" Justice Frank
furter remarked, "the laws of
the District are photographed
rarity"
Mr.. Colladay contended that
the codif1cation, prepared by the
late Judge Walter S. Cox, and
enacted in part, by Congress in
1901, repealed the 1928 enact
ments. The latter statutes were
not contained in the new code.

that the Legislative Assembly's
enactments of 1872 and 1873
were not repealed either directly
by Congress or by any codifi-
cation of District laws. it did not
rule specifically on whether the
1872 act was repealed by the
1873 act. The court sent that
question back to the Court of
Appeals for any further determi-
nation it might wish to make on
that point.
In arguments before the Su-
preme Court last March, Attor-
ney General Brownell said the
Thompson case held national
significance.
He mentioned President Eisen-
hoWer'S State-of-the- Union mes
sage in February, which said, in
part:
Serious attention should be
given to the proposal to develop,
and to authorize through legis-
lation, a system to provide an
effective voice in local self-gov-
ernment." The President also
said he would use whatever au-
thority he had to end segrega-
ton in the District.
Attorney General Brownell
viewed then the elimination of
restaurant segregation policies
as step toward home rule for
the District. His statement was
made in an attack upon the
