St.Morys County Serenity Is Deceiving

some unexplained manner and
was the basis for one of the
criminal libel indictments.
Gov. McKeldin said the let
ter never left his files and
from authoritative sources 1t
was learned that his state
ment Is correct. What the
grand jurors read was O copy
Of Mr.. Lewis scathing COM
munication.
In this case, the State must
prove that the letter was
mailed in st. Mary County or
that the Governor received 1t
there. If this test. cannot be
met-and 1t probably cannot
the indictment Is void.
The other criminal libel in
dictmentS stem from remarks
made by Mr.. Lewis in letters
published by q st. Marys
County weekly newspaper.
They denounced the Weiners,
State Senator Paul J. Bailey,
Republican, st. Marys, and
Philip H. Dorsey, now q Demo-
cratic candidate for State at
torney general.
Allegedly libelous material
quoted in one indictment was
taken from the Congressional
Record and is privileged. Mr..
Lewis claims. The other true,
bill appears less vulnerable.
Rare Actions M
Criminal libel actions. based
on old English common laws
have been SO rare in Nary
land that a search has dis
closed only four cases decided
by the State Court of Appeals.
Punishment is within court
discretion, SO long as it is
neither cruel nor unusual.
Testimony Mr.. Lewis gave
in February before the recalled
September term grand jury
brought about the perjury In
dictment. Mr.. Lewis reported
ly was asked whether he had
furnished alcoholic beverages
to minors at his home. He is
said to have replied that he had
not.
If the indictment is tried,
grand jurors who questioned
the radio commentator are ex-
pected to testify that he denied
giving potent drinks to per-
sons under 81 and several wit.
nesses will be called to declare
that Mr.. Lewis statement Is
false.
In q recent development in
the Seething brawl. the private
detectives hired by Mr.. Lewis
were arrested in Prince Georges
County on st. Marys warrants
issued by Judge Knight. The
Judge, who has sued Mr.. Lewis
for $400, 900, disqualified him.
self in the case. but granted
the detectives jury trial when
no other magistrate was avail
able to hear their request.
Mr.. Lewis had strong support
at the outset Of his cleanup
campaign and still has some
influential followers in the
county. But his national broad
casts were unpalatable to most
of its tradition-loving citizens.

Congress

CONGRESS did not put in
~ one of its busiest weeks,
but Senate Majority Leader
william F.. Knowland insisted
this was not because the Nc
Carthy-Army hearings were
taking up too much time.
President Eisenhower in his
press conference was less posi-
tive that the hearings had not
held up his legislative pro-
gram. but he was hopeful they
had not.

would have to be destroyed.
AS the story went, the psychia-
trist said he believed that be-
cause DR.. Sheppard was tall
and husky person and had been
overpowered by the killer, the
man responsible for the crime
also must be tall.
Mayor Houk said he suggested
that the brothers might take a.
look at a man who worked in the
general area of the Sheppard
home and more or less fitted the
original description of the killer
as supplied by DR.. Sheppard.
Questioning Shifts.
Assistant Prosecutor John ].
Mahon, who had been question
ing Mayor Houk, then went
ahead with Interrogation on 9TH
er matters.
Mayor Houk, a meat dealer,
is the first person DR.. Sheppard
summoned the morning his wife
was murdered.
On croSS-examination by De-
fense Attorney Fred w. Gar
none, Mayor Houk said he had
been in the Sheppard home
many times, and had never
seen DR.. Sheppard mistreat his
wife or his son, Chip.
AS he did yesterday, Mayor
Houk took long pauses to re-
fleet carefully before answering
questions. He seemed more re-.
laxed today.
DR.. Sheppard displayed no
emotion as he listened to his
friend testify. Occasionally he
would coach his attorneys on
some particular point he ap-
parently thought should be
bruoght out.
Mayor Houk was asked by Mr..
Garmone if DR.. Sheppard and
Marilyn displayed "close affec-
tion for one another"
"As much as any other couple"
the witness replied.
The Mayor said DR.. Shep-
pard was active in boys work
and in civil defense work in
Bay Village, was a member of
the Bay Village Mems Club and
was Bay Village police surgeon.
Mayor Houk recently was re-
leased from a hospital after
treatment for a stomach ailment.
The illness developed from strain
brought about by the Mayors Of

Senator Knowland said the

The opening of the debate was
delayed still further when Sena-
tor johnson, Democrat, of Colo
RADIO, a member of the censure
committee, said he had heard of
Senators leaving for Australia,
Paris and other parts of the
world on tours and he wondered
if Senator Knowland could in
form him on whats being done
about that?"
Senator Knowland pointed out
that he had mo absolute power
to compel Senators to be pres

ito adjust themselves to be here"
He said if any Senator leaves on
a trip, it will be over his objec-
tion and that he is having a
check made of all Republican
Senators to see how many have
plans to be away for any ma
terial time"
Then Senator Watkins arose to

CHICAGO, Nov. 10.-A 3-year-
old Rhesus monkey named Sally
may have set a worlds record
for a long distance non-fatal
free fall.
The animal tumbled Is stories
from the top of a San Francisco
hospital to a concrete courtyard
below-a distance of 1875 feet
and suffered only a fractured
finger and minor cuts.
Writing in the Journal Of the
American Veterinary Medical
Association, Bennett j. Cohen, a
veterinarian, and r. Gordon
Agnew, a dentist, said:
1--WE have no explanation for
the monkeys survival after this
tremendous free fall and SO label
the incident a medical oddity."

consideration is being given this
suggestion as a means Of putting
a check on Red attacks on Amer

Today Pentagon spokesmen
said the Far East command has
authority to provide cover for

In Tokyo a high military
source said:
I'VE did not consider it neces-
sary to escort this particular
plane since it was flying well in
side friendly territory. After all,
If your aircraft aren't safe inside
their own territory, where are
they safe?"
It was explained that jet

dor Bohlen went to the Moscow
function celebrating the 37th an
niversary of the Bolshevik revo-
luton after the B-29 photo
graphic mapping plane was shot
down with the loss of one officers

Senator Knowland charged the
incident was an attempt by the
Communists to cause loss of face
by the United States in the Far
East at a time when Japanese
Premier Yoshida was en- route

Minister Molotov and Chinese

Senators Fulbright, Democrat
OF Arkansas, and Sparkman.

with that view.
Senator Fulbright called Mr..
Bohlen "our trusted and ap-
pointed Ambassador" to Russia
and much the better Judge of
his actions"

Sparkman said, should "have to

Ike Repeats Alaska Not Ready For Statehood Yet

WASHINGTON, tR - President Eisenhower repeated today that he believes Alaska is not ready for statehood.
 The reference came at press conference in which the President also discussed important foreign and domestic issues.
 He said this country'S prelimi- nary atomic talks with Russia are encouraging, but it is too soon to tell whether the Soviets are acting in good faith. The atomic talks are an outgrowth of his proposal for an international atomic energy pool for peaceful purposes.
 On the controversial farm pro- gram which he submitted to Congress last Monday, Eisenhow- CT declared he believes it is work able and practicable As to whe- ther it is politically feasible in this election year, the President said we'll find out about that later, but that he is convinced the program for a switch to flex- ible price supports is right.
 On his labor law proposal for a system of government-conducted elections among employees on the question of striking, the Presi- dent said he would leave to Con- gress whether such votes should come before or after a strike has begun.
 Eisenhower said that in making the recommendation as part of his plan for amending the Taft Hartley Act he was trying to es- tabIish a principle. He said he pur- posely avoided spelling out details because that is the province of Congress.

Senator Certain Ike Will Veto Alaska
 Statehood if Passed

WASHINGTON, lR - Senator Jackson D-Wash today predicted the present session of Congress will approve statehood for both Hawaii and Alaska-or neither.
 The Washington senator said he does not believe the Senate will pass bill calling for admission into the union of Hawaii alone.
 Sizing up statehood possibilities he told a neWsman he feels the Eisenhower administration made a regrettable mistake" in it's de- cision to push legislation to ad init Hawaii.
 'Under Democratic administra- tions," he declared, "the two bills have been brought up together to avoid partisanship. Pushing the Hawaii bill without Alaska has turned statehood into a partisan fight which is unfortunate"
 Jackson said he felt Alaska's only chances of obtaining state hood under the Republican ad ministration lies in it's being com bined with the Hawaii bill.
 He said he felt certain Presi- dent Eisenhower would veto an Alaskan statehood proposal even should it succeed in passing the Republican Congress.
 Jackson said he felt the move to combine the two bills would receive the overwhelming support of Senate Democrats, including southerners who oppose statehood for either territory.
 Although Jackson predicts sue cess for the Alaska amendment, he said he would vote for the Hawaiian bill even should the Alaskan move fail.

Reds Incorporating North
 Korea as Chinese Province

WASHINGTON, R- Secretary of State Dulles said Wednesday that Communist China is virtual ly incorporating North Korea as a Chinese province" making more difficult the prospect of peacefully uniting all Korea.
 Dulles appeared before the Sen ate Foreign Relations Committee to ask Senate ratification for the new mutual defense treaty be- tween this country and South Korea.
 He said he felt certain that 'in the long run" North and South Korea would be united, just as he said he believes all Germany will some day be re-unified.

Air Secretary Cites Need For Air Force Academy
 To Train Young Officers
