ney for the CAA at New York

At Prayer During
His First Tour

PARIS, Mar. 5.-The French
Press Agency said today the
Sultan of Morocco, Moulay Mo-
manned Ben Arafa. was injured
today when a bomb exploded in

he was saying his prayers.
The Sultan repeatedly was
slightly injured in the forehead
and was able to walk unaided

supporter. THANH Ell Glaoui, the
PaSha of Marrakech, was with
the Sultan but escaped injury
the dispatch said.
Arafa succeeded to the Mo-
roccan throne after the French
ousted his nephew. Sidi Mo-

sultanate because of his increas-
ing support of Nationalist de-
mandS for independence fol-

Mccarthy withdraws Mcleod Plans 10 Stay
81 Million Libel Suit On Job Despite Loss
Filed Against Benton 0fPersonneI Control
Papers Presented Here;
Action Wos Outerowth
Of Charges in Senate

Senator Mccarthy, Republi-
can. of Wisconsin, today with
drew his 81 million libel and
SANDER suit against former SEN
ator Benton, Democrat, of Con-
necticut.
The withdrawal papers were
filed this afternoon in the United
States District Court for the Dis
trict of Columbia.
A formal statement of the
withdrawal was submitted by Ed
ward B. Williams, attorney for
Senator Mccarthy, to Gerhard
Van Arkel, representing Mr.. Ben
ton. Parties to the suit had been
summoned by the court for a
pretrial conference next Monday.
Statements in Conflict.
Both Senator Mccarthy and
Mr.. Benton issued conflicting
statements on why the suit, filed
in March. 1852, was withdrawn.
The suit charged that Mr..
Benton, then a member of the
Senate. libeled Senator Nc
Carthy in telling a Senate Elec-
tons subcommittee that the
Wisconsin Republican had COM
mitted perjury. fraud and calcu-
lated deceit of the American
people in pressing his charges
that Communists had inf1ltrated
the Government.
Mr.. Benton had congressional
immunity at the time but waived
it in challenging Senator Nc
earthly to sue.
Il Can Understand Why"
Mr.. Benton was notified of
today's development in Miami,
Fla, where he was attending a
Democratic dinner. His assistant,
John Howe. issued a press re-
lease here quoting Mr.. Benton
as saying:
Senator Mccarthy refuses to
face examination under court
room conditions. 1 can under
stand why"
Mr.. Benton said the Wisconsin
Senator filed the suit because he
thought he had to accept the
challenge on the eve of the 1852
elections. He added:
This was safe because the
trial couldn't possibly be held
before the election. His suit was
a political suit, never a genuine
legal suit. He could never have
won it. :"
The Benton statement invited
any one interested either ror or
against Senator Mccarthy to
read the Benton testimony on
which the suit was based. He
asked the public also to study
the hearings before the Senate
Elections subcommittee. And
he asked them to communicate
their reactions to their Senators,
the Justice Department and to
the Internal Revenue Service.
Cites Benton's Defeat.
Senator Mccarthy, on the
other hand, told The, Star his
lawyers had been unable to find
any one who would testify they
had believed the charges and
hence there was a problem in
proving damages.
He also said Mr.. Bentons de-
feat for reelection in Connecti-
cut and his Awn victory in Wis
consin were other factors show
ing the Benton charges had not
damaged him.
I'm addition to these" Sena-
tor Mccarthy said, my lawyers
informed me that the trial would
take at least a month. ! couldn' t
afford the luxury of exposing
Benton and neglecting my BUSH
ness for that time"
