Bullock Declines
To Reveal Finances
AT Murray Meeting

A heated two-hour meeting
between Inspector Albert I.
Bullock and Police Chief Robert
V. Murray ended today with the
suspended policeman fatty re-
fusing to reveal his financial
affairs.
Maj. Murray said as far as he
was concerned the command
performance was inconclusive.
However, he stressed that In
spector Bullock still is under
suspension. The police chief
said he would continue his in
vestigation of Mr.. Bullock's S
background and would make a
report directly to the Board Of
Commissioners. He wuld not
say when he thought his probe
would be completed. No fur
ther meetings with Inspector
Bullock are contemplated.
Reads 6-Page Letter.
The session called by Mai.
Murray last Thursday was post
poned until today to give Mr..
Bullock an opportunity to an
swer. Inspector Bullock refused
to do so and started off the
meeting by presenting a six-page
letter to Murray. A copy Of the
missive also was sent to Com
missioner Samuel Spencer.
The giSt of Inspector Bull
locks written refusal boiled down
to two: points. He said he had
been cleared of a gambling
charge and been investigated by
a grand jury, the Police Depart
ment and a special committee Of
the District Bar Association, and
has not been found culpable.
His other reason. the letter
said. was the fact that the
Bureau of Inernal Revenue is
presently conducting an investi-
cation Of Inspector Bullock's
financial background.
Calls Hearing Illegal.
Inspector Bullock's attorney,
Charles E. Ford, and his aSsoci-
ate in the case, Joseph Sitnick,
termed today's session an "un-
lawful and illegal hearing"
Of the 100 or more questions
asked Inspector Bullock by Chief
Murray, most centered around
his finances and his testimony
before a District Senate Crime
Committee. These, Mr.. Ford said.
Mr.. Bullock declined to answer.
He did reply to all those con-
cerning his personal affairs such
as his divorce and remarriage,
Mr.. Ford said.
An injunction action brought
by Inspector Bullock to force
Chief Murray and the Board Of
Commissioners to permit him to
retire since he is So years old and
has served on the force for 80
years is due to be heard in Fed
eral Court Wednesday.

D. {. Water Sought
For Fairfax Areas

Representative Broyhill, Re-
publican, of Virginia, proposed
today that Virginia chartered
utility groups in the Washington
area be permitted to draw on the
Districts water system.
The proposal, in a bill intro
duced today, would assist de-
velopment of small communities
in Fairfax County particularly,
Mr.. Broyhill said.
The bill amends a 1947 law
authorizing such water. delivery
to Falls Church. It sets up
methods to pay for water de-
livered and makes the water
utility corporations responsible
also for water connections and
other costs.

cupied by persons who have en-
tered the Federal service more
recently and do not have perma-
nent civil service status" Mr..
Young testified.
In view of the declared inten-
tion of the Congress and the ad-
miniStration to reduce Federal
employment, the placement Of
career employees will become
more and more of a problem
area as these reductions are ef-
fected," Mr.. Young told the Sen
ate group.
The csc has asked $6 million
for it's placement and examin-
ing program, but this amount
was cut by SIS million by the
House.
Commission officials say that
unless some of the slash is re-
stored by the Senate, it will con-
siderably hamper the program
to find new jobs for jobless
career employees.
csc officials are now working
on plans to aid displaced career
workers. AS Mr.. Young teSti-
fled before the Senate group, it
is felt that displaced career
workers should be assigned to
jobs that they can handle that
are now filled by temporary in
definite workers.
~ ~
INSPECTION-In his testi-
mony before the Senate Appro-
priations Committee, Mr.. Young
also asked for sufficient funds to
permit proper investigation of
the personnel practices Of the
various Government agencies.
The csc chief said the COM
mission can now inspect only
65 per cent of the Governments
agencies each year. He asked
for an extra 100000 so that IS
per cent of the bureaus can be
checked next year.
Mr.. Young said an extensive
review must be made in such
agencies as the Internal Revenue
Bureau. He said preliminary in
vestigation at Internal Revenue
Bureau indicates improper
selection procedures and non-
adherence to qualification stand
ards"
VETERANS WIVES-The cur
rent observation-disclosures program
in Government is involving quite
a few women employees who are
the wives Of servicemen fighting
in Korea.
Most of these women have
young children and they have
been working in order to supple
ment the small income they re-
ceive from their husbands. Un-
fortunately, however, these en-
ployes have temporary indefinite
status and are the first to 60
in the economy firings.
While the law gives job priority
rights to women whose husbands
were killed in action. it makes no
provision for wives whose huS-
bands are now in the armed
forces. Congress is being urged

bodybuilding Plan
And Budget Measure
Signed by McKe|din
By Gene Goodwin
Sfor Stoff Correspondent

BALTIMORE, April 27.-The
Maryland highway moderniza-
ton program was signed into
law today by Gov. McKeldin.
1t was among 1854 acts of the
1853 Maryland General Assembly
signed by the Governor in his
Baltimore Office.
He also signed the bill setting
forth a $193 million State bud
get for the fiscal year beginning
July /.
Gasoline Tax Increase.
The roads program, which con-
templates spending almost 81
billion by the State and the coun-
ties in the next IL years, in
wolves a 1-cent increase in the
gasoline tax, from 5 to s cents,
effective July /.
After signing the roads bill,
Gov. McKeldin said: This is the
highlight of my administration.
For the first time in the history
of Maryland, we have compre-
hensive road program which can
be extended from administration
to administration"
The three members of the
State Roads Commission and
several commission officials wit
messed the signing.
The bill only gives the State
Roads Commission the green
light on the first four years of
the program with authority to
spend about $3.50 million. How
ever, Roads Commission officials
interpret the four-year author
ization as tantamount to ap-
proval of the entire program,
since much of the money in the
first four years will go toward
purchase of rights of way for
roads planned later.
The act also authorizes an in
crease in automobile registra-
ton fees, but that would not
take effect until July /. 1855
Many legislators and roads Of
ficials believe that the gasoline
tax increase will bring in enough
money to finance the entire pro-
gram and the registration fee
boost can be repealed before it
takes effect.
Ocean Beach Bridge.
Among the other acts signed
by the Governor was one au-
thorizing additional circuit court
judges in most Maryland coun-
ties, including Montgomery and
Prince Georges. subject to ap-
proval by the voters in the 1854
general election.
Another measure signed was
the act authorizing the develop
ers of Ocean Beach to build a toll
bridge from the Maryland main
land to Assateague Island, where
their development is located.

Chance for Final Vote
On Tide|ands Bill
This Week Improves
By J. A. O'Leory

The prospect for a final Sen
ate vote this week on the SUBJ
merged lands bill appeared
brighter today as the Senate ap-
preached a 3 pm. test roll-call
on a substitute measure to pro-
vide Federal ownership Of the
oil-rich lands.
Senator Anderson, Democrat,
of New Mexico, author of the
substitute, told reporters If he is
beaten, as he expects to be, the
opponents of the administration S
State ownership bill will offer a
series of amendments to make it
less Objectionable.
He added that the opponents.
who held a strategy conference
this morning, will undertake to
dispose expeditiously" Of the
amendments. He made it clear,
however, that some opponents
are still unwilling to limit de-
bate by unanimous consent.
Debate on Another Substitute.
Asked if a final vote can be
obtained this week. Senator An
derson replied:
Il wouldn't say it's impos-
sible."
He predicted there will be con-
siderable debate on another SUBJ
stitute Senator Kefauver. Demo-
crat, Of Tennessee. will offer.
This would postpone passage of
the State ownership bill pending
further study Of the issue.
Majority Leader. Taft said he
is still negotiating with the OPP
position in search of agreement
on a compromise.
Anderson Sees U. S. Aroused.
Senator Anderson claimed
today the opponents have
achieved their major objective
Of arousing the country on a
proposal we think is bad" re-
ferring to the State-ownership
bill.
Having done that, we should
proceed to perfect a bill. and
probably will do so." he added.
The opposition was not claim
ing that it has convinced a ma
jority of the Senate, however.
Majority Leader Taft has
threatened to hold the Senate in
session around the clock, starting
tomorrow, if no agreement on a
time for a final vote is obtained.
Hawaii Debate Impends.
The outlook is not a happy one
for Republican leaders. because.
if they pass the submerged lands
bill, they may find themselves
facing another talkathon against
Hawaiian statehood.
President Eisenhower, who
campaigned in support of State
ownership of the submerged
lands, took a good-natured crack
at the long Senate debate yes
terday. Called on to speak at
a Texas State Society gathering,
he said:
II wonder just how much
talk this town can stand in one
week"
