FBI Reports Major Crimes Up 6% Over Last Year

WASHINGTON, R,-The FBI reported Tuesday major crimes in the United States rose percent last year to an estimated total of 2,159,080 offenses.
 Crime is outstripping popula- ton rate of growth 4 to l." the bureau said in it's annual bulletin, Uniform Crime Reports"
 "The rise cannot be charged to the increase in population alone," the FBI said. "The number of per sons residing in the United States increased about percent from the 1850 census to 1853, while crime totals rose over 20 percent" |"
 Of the major crimes tabulated from police reports in all parts of the country, only murder dropped off from 1852. It showed a 1.2 percent decline.
 Arrests of young people-those under 18-rose 7.9 percent in 1853 while adult arrests increased 1.9 percent.
 Although the crime rate contin- ued to rise, FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover said only few weeks ago that due to modern detection methods, the confirmed criminal never stood a poorer chance of continued success.
 Uniform Crime Reports" said more than 59 percent of the value of property stolen last year was recovered; of the 226,53O automo- piles stolen (up 5.2 percent from 1852, police reported recovery of 939 percent.

 Row Not Good For ForMilitary Morale

WASHINGTON, R- Secretary of Defense Wilson, speaking on the eve of Senate hearings and with new charges swirling about one of his aides, said today the Army Mccarthy row has "done no good" to military morale.
 Personally, the defense chief told a news conference, he feels that Gin these critical times men of good will ought to get together to solve these problems" confront ing the nation.
 Wilson said he believes H. Struve Hensel, asst. secretary of defense, is Ia competent honest man."
 Sen. Mccarthy brought Hen sePs name into the row yesterday when he filed a 'bill of particu- lars" with the Senate Investiga- tions subcommittee outlining the things he will seek to prove in the televised public hearing set to open at 10:3O am. Thursday.
 Mccarthy contended that con- cern that he was about to expose misconduct and possibly law violations" by Hensel led Army officials to attempt to discredit him.
 As to the general effects of the whole row, Wilson said that it not only had done no good to military morale. It has also, he commented, added to his prob lens in his efforts to "get some fine, capable men to come down here at personal sacrifice. I don't think it's going to help"

No Plan to Send US. Troops Abroad
 Being Considered

WASHINGTON, R-Two sen- ators said Tuesday after a meeting with Secretary of State Dulles that no decision to dispatch Am erican fighting forces to Indo- china is being considered.
 Both senators are Republicans, Ferguson of Michigan and Bridges of New Hampshire.
 The two senators talked to re- porters at the State Department after Dulles had briefed a 15-man congressional delegation on de- velopments in Indochina and the forthcoming Geneva Peace Con- ference which the Reds will at tend.
 Dulles has "the situation well in hand," Ferguson said. The secre- tary will leave for the Geneva Conference with the blessing of congressional leaders," he added
 Bridges said in his view ''the situation looks gloomy but not hopeless. He said any move to send American forces to Indo- china twas not in the wind"
 But, he added that no one could foretell what the future would hold.
 Bridges said in a speech Mon day night that i've have made our decision" to hold Indochina.
 Sen. Cooper R-Ky) said Tues day he is prepared to go all the way with the Eisenhower Admin istraion to keep Indochina out of Communist hands.

 There are four things this country do about the hydrogen bomb: influence to bring about a meeting of the three countries capable of making the bomb-the United States Russia, and the United Kingdom; urge halt in further hydro- gen bomb tests; we sponsor a worldwide appeal to America and Russia to destroy existing bombs under the supervision of scientists of world repute; lastly take the lead in efforts to drain the swamp of suspicion and fear which has born the hydrogen bomb''
