Queen Riding GoIIoping Horse

Dukes Shout Averts
Tragedy When Phone
Cable Sogs at Ascot

ASCOT, England, June 90
Queen Elizabeth II gave an
exhibition of her expert horse
manship at the Royal Ascot
Race Course today-and pro-
badly saved her head.
She ducked just in time on a
galloping horse to get under a
telephone cable that had blown
down at head level across the
course.
A shout from the Duke of
Edinburgh, who was riding out
front, sounded the warning. The
Queen laughed off the incident
and called out to Lord RoSeberry
as she rode past:
1--WE were nearly all decapi-
tated."
The Dukee more concerned
than his young wife, asked her
afterward:
Did you hear me shout when
I saw that wire?"
She smiled and replied: 81 saw
you duck and I did the same"

On Revision of EDO by Midsummer

Assembly a plan for an economic
austerity program.
The mornings victory was
achieved even without the help
of the ASsembly'S 100 Commu-
nistS and fellow travellers. The
group voted solidly for Mr.. Men
des-France-the first time they
have supported a non-Commu-
mist in many years. But the
candidate had rejected their
support in advance declaring
that if he did not receive at least
314 non-Communist votes he
would not take Office.
IndO- China First Problem.
The result came as a profound
shock to many diplomats and
political experts here who had
been predicting confidently that
Mr.. MendeS-France had little
chance of forming a government.
Today, however. they had re-
covered sufficiently to come up
with a number of comments
about what the new government
may mean for France and the
Western world.
At the moment the question
of Indo-China holds the center
of attention. Automatically a
new interest and new hope in
the Geneva conference is revived.
If Mr.. Mendes-France really
hopes to arrange a cease-f1re
within a month. he has little
time to lose. The current pre-
diction is that he will go to
Geneva personally to take over
the negotiations for France.
At the same time Mr.. Mendes-
France has assured the Assem-
bly, that he will take precautions
against the possibility of fall
ure. All military measures to
reinforce French forces in Indo-
China will be carried out. The
new Premier even limited that
he may ask the Assembly to take
the unpopular step of sending
conscripts into the battle zone
to reinforce the expeditionary
force.
Vague on EDO Plans.
In the course of debate in
the Assembly yesterday Mr..
Mendes-France was deliberately
vague about his plans for re-
viSing EDO. In general terms,
he spoke of his hope of recon-
Cling extremist points of view
both for and against the treaty.
A compromise would recognize

Russia vetoes
PeacePatro|
For Indo-China
5oth NO Is Cost
In Security Council;
Going to Assembly
BY the Associated Press

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y,
June 18.-Russia today vetoed
Thailand's proposal for an Indo-
China peace patrol. It was the
Russians seth veto in the Sc
curity Council.
The proposal was supported
by the United States, Britain,
France, and six other Council
members. Lebanon abstained.
RuSsia's single mo" vote was
sufficient to kill action in the
Council.
Russian ASSailS u. S.
Soviet Delegate Semyon K.
Tsarapkin charged the idea,
favored by nine members of the
11-nation Security Council, was
"a diversion and camouflage by
the United States to widen the
conflict in Indo-C China.
A Russian veto paved the
way for Thailand to take the
proposal to the Donation U. N.
General Assembly, where Russia
has no veto. Thailand'S Deputy
Delegate Thanat Khoman said
today Thailand would push it's
proposal.
Diplomatic sources said there
would be a showdown while dele
cations consulted and got in
structions from their govern
ments. They said special As
Sembly meeting was not likely
before late July.
Geneva Scuttling Charged.
Mr.. Tsarapkin accused the
United States of trying ito scut-
tie the settlement of this queS-
ton" at Geneva.
Irrespective of all the at
tempts of the Anglo-American
bloc to minimize this question
all are aware that today we are
talking about something much
more important than the dis
patch of observers to Thailand,
right to the borders of Indo-
China" the Soviet deputy rep
reSentative said. He is sitting in
U. N. meetings for his boss, An
drei Y. Vishinsky, now in Russia
on a vacation.
This hurry to raise the ques-
ton here in the Security Coun-
Gil just at the time when some
progress is on the horizon in
Geneva shows the fear of ag-
greSSive circles in the United
States that settlement is at
hand" Mr.. Tsarapkin said. ITO
adopt the resolution would con-
stitute the first step in direct
military intervention by the
United States. The United States
is attempting to repeat here its
Korean adventure.

Judge CockriII Backs
Charges Of Police
Brutality 10 Youths
She Promises List Of
Specific instances if
Murray Requests Them
BY ChdrIes 6. Brooks

Juvenile Court Judge Edith
Cockrill today backed her adj
visory committees charges of
police brutality and intimidations
in juvenile cases and gave infor-
nation on a number of specific
instances which she claimed
proved her point.
The judge, declaring that she
has noticed an increase in the
complaints in her court, said she
would furnish a list of specific
instances to Police Chief Robert
v. Murray if he requested them.
Last Tuesday the committee
charged that police had been US
ing undue violence and threats
against juveniles to obtain con-
LESSONS and make cases.
The allegations were followed
by a demand from Chief Muir
ray that the committee furnish
him with specific instances
rather than generalitieS.
Complaints Reported.
In a special press conference
today, Judge Cockrill declared:
Il am getting an increasing
number of complaints from chill
dren and parents alleging mis-
treatment. This increase was of
such concern to nae that I talked
to Chief Murray about it last
December.
"At the time I gave him a list
of specific cases extending back
over some months.
II continued, however, to get
complaints and, recognizing that
it is a difficult situation to han
die, I discussed it with my ad-
visory committee.
Following that discussion a
subcommittee went to see Chief
Murray April /.
1.-THE report came back at the
time that the chief would look
into it. At the same time they
invited Chief Murray for the
second time to meet with the
committee and discuss this
problem as well as the finger
printing and photographing of
juveniles.
HE didn't accept again."
Number Increasing.
Judge Cockrill declared she
realizes there are some juveniles
who learn early in life to COM
plain that police have beaten
them, but my concern is that
we do have an increasing num-
Der of them"
She declared she felt that pre-
cinct officers rather than Juve-
nile Squad detectives were doing
most of the crime investigating.
She said her experience has been
that police have obtained most
of their confessions in the pre-
clnct stations rather than in the
juvenile squad.
II told Chief Murray" she
added, that because of the con-
Germ over juvenile delinquency,

In regard to the staff, Senator
Mcclellan called for immediate
investigation of two points.

Of Senator McCarthy's staff to
receive Defense Department
clearance to handle classified or
secret military information. He
did not name to two.
2. Immediate investigation of
"alleged threats made by men,

to intimidate members of this
committee in the course of these
proceedings"
Senator Mcclellan revealed
that he had received a threat
from a staff member during the
hearing, although he added he
did not take it seriously. He
said he answered the threat in
words "I couldn't repeat to you"
A week ago Robert F. Ken

the Democrats, charged that Roy
M. Cohn, regular committee
counsel, had threatened Senator

alleged that there was at least

Senator Mcclellan said that
Defense Department security

added that failure of the staff
