New Trial Ordered
In Narcotics Case

A Federal appeals court today
ordered a new trial for Lee Won
(Pink Cheeks Sing on charges
of violating the narcotics laws.
The U. s. Court of Appeals
for the District of Columbia said
the lower court gave inadequate
instructions to the jury in con-
nection with a question put to
a witness by the prosecution.
Sing, president of the WASH
ington branch of the On Leong
Chinese Merchants Association,
and Lee Poo, 66, of the 800 block
of H street NV, had been
charged with illegal possession
Of narcotics.
Poo pleaded guilty, but Sing
stood trial. During the trial, the
prosecution asked Poo. a de-
Tense witness if it were true that
he had been given $4,000 to
plead guilty. His reply was "No." !"
Before the case went to jury,
defense lawyers asked Judge F.
Dickinson Let's of the U. S. Dis
trict Court for the District Of
Columbia to instruct the jury
that the Government, not hav-
ing presented evidence to the
contrary, was bound by Poo's
negative answer. The Judge re-
fused. The appellate court said
the Judge should have issued
such instructions, and ordered
the new trial.

Bill Would Authorize

The COMMISSIONS would have

The city heads were advised
they now are without authority
to grant an ennploye another
holiday when q legal holiday falls
on a day when the worker is al
ready of under his regular

The proposed legislation also
would give the Commissioners
authority to grant holidays to
District employees which the Pres
ident may decree for Federal em-
ployeS.
Thus, since next Christmas and
New Years Day fall on Saturday,
If the President should let Fed

Backers Of the proposed multi
million dollar shopping center in
Fairfax County near Fort Buff
falo today proposed that access

The Fairfax County Board of

Re-enIisfmeni Bonus
Bill Goes 10 White House
BY the Asseeiatsd Press

The House passed by voice
vote and sent to President Eli
senhower yesterday a bill to pay
about SGT million in added
bonuses to spur re-enlistments
in the military services.
The bill broadens the present
bonus system by giving more
money to trained and higher
ranking enlisted men who con-
tinue their careers.
The bonus would be computed
on the individuals basic pay and
the period of re-enlistment.
An Air Force sergeant COM
pleting a four-year enlistment
would get $156 for signing up
for another 4-year hitch. A pri-
vate first class would get $372.
The present system gives each of
them $16O.
