Trade Board
Solicitation
Policy Set

The Rockville Board of Trade
in its directors meeting Monday
night, adopted policy governing
the control of, solicitations. For
some time, business men have been
called upon to make contributions
to innumerable activities. Many
progressive cities have adopted a
method of control of these solicita-
tons through their boards of
trade, or chambers of commerce.
The new policy will require the
solicitor to secu'., an application
from the Board OF Trade in which
he will set forth the name of the
group and the detectives. The
dates of the solicitation period must
be given. Th., application will then
go before a committee which has
been nominated by the president
for consideration.
In making its decisions, the COM
mittee will consider whether the
project for which the solicitation is
made will benefit the entire com
munity. If the committee approves,
the solicitor will receive a letter of
authorization from the Board of
Trade, which he may present to
the merchants. At the end of the
solicitation period, the letter is to be
returned to the Board of Trade.
In setting forth the new policy,
the board would like to state that
approval Of any solicitation does
not necessarily mean an indorse-
ment, nor is disapproval of a solicit
tation derogatory.

Peyfon Ford Denies
Any Tax Fix Deal;
Contradicts Caud|e
By jones E. Roper

Peyton Ford, former deputy
Attorney General, today denied
making any deal to settle a
$111.OOO tax claim against a
Minneapolis physician for
$35. 900.
This directly contradicted
testimony of r. Lamar Caudle,
one time head of the Justice De-
partment's tax division.
The physician involved was
DR.. Olaf Olson. who entered a
plea Of no defense to one charge
of tax evasion, received a sus-
pended sentence and a $4,000
fine and then-with the support
Of Senator LANCER, Republican,
Of North Dakota-argued sue
cessfully that the Justice De-
partment had promised to COM
promise remaining civil liabili-
ties for $4,000.
Gist Of CaudIe Testimony.
Mr.. Caudle has testified before
a House Judiciary subcommit-
tee headed by Representative
Heating of New York that only
MIR. Ford or then Attorney Gen.
eral Tom Clark could have made
such a promise and that MIR.
Ford accepted responsibility for
it at the time, 1949.
Hes mistaken" Mr.. Ford told
the subcommittee today. II said
I'd take responsibility of enter
tanning the offer and asking the
Bureau of Internal Revenue
whether it had any objections"
Mr.. Ford said he believed there
never was any promise to settle
the civil liability if DR.. Olson en-
tered no defense plea in the
criminal case.
Langer'S Action Recalled.
Recalling how Senator LANCER
intervened to insist on the civil
settlement. Mr.. Ford said: .
II called the Attorney General
Clark who said he had had one
or two conferences on the case.
=. He said he explained that
once the criminal case was dis
posed of. they could make an Of
fer"
Mr.. Ford testified that Mr..
Clark did not explain with whom
he held these conferences.
Mr.. Clark, now a Supreme
Court justice, was invited by the
subcommittee on Monday to tes-
tify tomorrow, Friday or next
Monday. The subcommittee has
received no reply.

fears expressed by the South
Korean Republic.
Gen. Eisenhower, like Secre-
tary of State Dulles, admitted he
was not certain what the effects
Of the latest Communist often
sive in Korea would be on the
chances of an early truce.
He added, however, that if one
assumes the Communists are sin
cere in their desire for an armis-
tice, the new attacks indicate a
complete disregard for human
life, If peace is imminent, he
said, there is no point in trying
to make minor changes in the
battle line at such terrific costs
General Settlement Wanted.
Gen. Eisenhower also indicated
that the political conference fol-
lowing a ceaSe-fire in Korea may
try for a general settlement OF
Far Eastern problems. There
would be no such thing as a real
Korean armiStic which merely
freed Chinese forces for action
elsewhere, the President said.
The demarcation line laid out
by military staff officers in sew
eral intensive sessions was de-
scribed as based upon the present
battle line.

defending literature which pro-
NOTED the same ends,
Nor was he advocating the
spending Of Government funds
for the purchase of books in
overseas Libraries which sought
to propagate communism.
In fact. the President said, If
the State Department has been
burning books that make an
open appeal for every one to be-
come Communists, such an ac-
ton would have no connection
with what he had said at Dart
mouth. It would be the acme of
Stiffness to propose that such
overseas information libraries
should serve the Communist
cause.
His plea, Gen. Eisenhower said,
has been against an attempt to
fight communism by pretending
that it didn't exist. He recalled
how many people at the outbreak
of World War II regretted not
having read Hitler's Mein
Kampf. He asked how many had
read Stalin's Problems of Len
inism" or Karl Marx to educate
themselves about the nature of
communism.
Gen. Eisenhower recalled that
as President of Columbia Uni
versity he had urged the teach
ing of communism, while and
at the same time insisting that.
Communists should be weeded
out of the university faculty.
There was a very great differ
ence, said the President, be-
tween teaching facts and ex-
horting to a certain doctrine.
Most foreigners. said the Pres
ident, had adequate access to
Communist source material with
out depending on American in
formation libraries to supply it
for them. Although he could
see no objection to the presence
of controversial material in the
libraries, Communist texts in
general could be dispensed with,

50 Ships Tied Up in Rio
By General Sailor Strike
BY the Asseeiatsd Press

RIO DE JANEIRO, June IT,
The movement of about so ships
in this port is paralyzed by a
general strike of 10000 seamen
and officers of Brazil's merchant
marine, who walked out yester-
day on orders from 1a unions.
The strikers are demanding
wage increases ranging up to 100
per cent. better food aboard
ships, an eight-hour day and a
shorter work week.
President Getulio Vargas was
reported to have prepared a de-
cree calling all merchant marine
personnel who are now reserviSts
into regular navy duty in order
to keep them on the job. The
strike posed a serious threat to
the food supply of this city of
2.5 million people. About half is

it took into account the impact
of the latest Red offensive on the
United Nations position.
The impression of the officials
here was that the assault had
not made enough real difference
in the battle position to mate

The line runs mostly north Of
the 38th parallel although it
drops south of it in the extreme
western area.
The agreement was understood
here to have removed the last

Nonetheless, it was indicated

Franciszek Jarecki had set his
late-model MIG-15 down on the

American intelligence officers
said flight leaders had now been
reshuffled throughout the Polish

made personally answerable for

Schatz, lit is only the middle
part of the route which is still
an unknown Quantity. The up

to be quite easy. There seem to

I was in complete agreement
with Schatz: it struck me as an
entirely reasonable plan.
Once a decision had been
taken, the expedition would, sin
gle-heartedly, throw all its
strength into the attack. Ev-

it was for me, alone. to decide.
1t was a very heavy responsible

Instead of Immediately max

reconnaissance party to find the
best route up. This party will
carry 10 days food. and will be
re-provisioned, on a limited
scale, until further notice. AS
soon as the advance party see
a possible route the whole recon-
naissance will, upon definite Or

"These mountains are ex-

GAS for Dhaulagiri by the

to plan a route which would in
volve crossing two passes at 49,
900 feet, and then traversing a
huge and extremely difficult
glacier-and all this just to get
to the foot of the mountain. A
route up the East glacier would
be even more problematical. I

There remains another posSi-

climb an eight-thousander? It
would be q desperate decision
