In Fall Off School Bus

An 11-year-old Suitland (Md.)
girl is in undetermined condi-
ton at Providence hospital after

ty school bus today.

There were about 40 other chill
dren on the bus.
Nancy was standing in front
of the door. One hand was on
the back of a seat. Her other
hand was in her pocket. Police
said tine road was bumpy. and
Nancy was thrown of balance
against the emergency door. It
flew open and she fell out. they
said.
Police said the door is q type
which should not open unless
the handle is raised. They said
it was possible the handle had
been raised sometime before
the accident and hadn't been
noticed.
The driver, Roscoe Collins,
told police he checked the emer-
gency door Friday evening and
the handle was in its proper po-
sition. Mr.. Collins is a Suitland

Most of the new money sought
was for Army, Navy and Air

which were voted by Congress

Agreement Reached
Also on Voidine
Secret Treaties
By joseph A. Fox

President Eisenhower today
approved the long debated plan
to give the Federal Security Ad-
ministration cabinet status.
At the same time, in a lengthy
conference, the President and his
top congressional leaders, agreed
to a resolution directed at the
so-called secret agreements en-
tered into in international con.
ferenceS by Presidents Roosevelt
and Truman.
Senate Majority Leader Taft
said he expected a resolution
would be introduced soon to ''re-
pudiate at least those parts Of
agreements that might be con-
strued to limit the freedom Of
peoples to self determination"
Mentioned In Message.
In his state-of the Union ad.
dress, Gen. Eisenhower said he
would shortly ask Congress to
repudiate any secret agreements
Of the past which involved the
enslavement Of free peoples any
where. Senator Taft said today
Gen. Eisenhower was referring
to the Yalta agreement between
President Roosevelt and the
Russians.
Senator Taft and House
Speaker Martin met with news
men in the Office of White House
Press Secretary James c. Hag-
erty Immediately after the con-
ference.
This was a departure from
past sessions. when the congress.
sional leaders have been reluc.
tant to talk.
Urged BY Hoover Board.
The plan to reorganize the
Federal Security Agency on de-
partmental lines was advanced
by the Hoover Commission, and
also had found favor elsewhere.
But former President Truman
ran into difficulties on the pro-
posal because of congressional
opposition to Oscar Ewing.
former head Of the FSA. His
foes objected to the prospect Of
Mr.. Ewing having cabinet status.
Senator Taft told reporters the
basic principle was agreed to
today, but there was some queS-
tfon as to timing and he thought
the matter might not be taken
up until later In the year.
FSA now is headed by Mrs.
Oveta Culp Hobby. who sits in
on cabinet meetings. Mrs. Hobby
voiced the hope before she took
Office that her post would be
raised 70 one of full cabinet
FSA includes the social Sc
curity system and a complexity
of other Federal health, educa-
tional and related services.
Senator Taft didn't go into
the reasons for turning FSA
into a regular department. He
said, however, that all those at
today's meeting appeared to be
in favor Of the step, although
he said the question was raised
whether 1t would be better tn
do it now or to wait until fall.
After today's session, which
was termed of an exploratory
nature, Senator Taft said that

total of 60 per cent of those
funds, giving approval to only
$904, ,672, 900 in extra money. Far
and away the biggest chunk cut
out by the committee lay in de-
fense funds.
Some of the new money re-
quests submitted by Mr.. Truman
were scaled down by new de-
partment heads appointed by
Gen. Eisenhower. Other requests
were; not disturbed.
The committee even cut the
Presidents funds. It rejected in
full a request for $4,000 for the
Presidents Council of Economic
Advisers and approved instead
a $25, 900 fund for the President
to appoint an economic adviser
and an economic advisory staff.
A request for $3.50, 900 for the

Officials in Washington specu-
lated that the Russian-type
planes were trying to check up
on the defense buildup In North
ern Japan. They believed the
fights also might have been
aimed at testing American deter
mination to back up it's warning.
Protest Up to Japan.
State Department officials said
any protest over the incident
would be up to the japanese, but
the United States might act as
an intermediary since Japan has
no direct relations with the
Soviet.
Backing for the military de-
veloped quickly at the Capitol.
Chairman Saltonstall of the Sem
ate Armed Services Committee
commented:
IF the facts as reported are
correct, I believe we must live
up to statements of policy we
have made. One policy we have
laid down Is that Russian planes
shall not fly over Japan"

this morning. They signalled the
intruders to land, one Thunder

One Of the LA-11s was hit in

Both planes fled toward the

It is only AZ miles from Me-

seconds in a Jet.
The Thunderjets were on q
routine patrol mission when ra-

men flashed the signal that sent
the American planes roaring In
