ty Her work on earth is fin
ished. Her deft and delicate
fingers are at rest, and her
busy brain is still. Her anxi-
cites are over. Her suffering
has ceased. Into the eternal
calm she is ushered. Into the
solemn silence she rests: and
in Gods love she abides. Her
musical soul has gone to Join
the seraphs above. Her clas-
steal training now enriches
the heavenly orchestra; and
her sweet, quiet presence
awaits its coronation.
It is not for us to reason
why, or to murmur, or com
plain, or to be rebellious. It
is for us to say only: "The

her impact upon her genera

important, and compensatory.
Our dear departed said to
me a little while back during
her disqualification: "Rev. I do
not wish to die - I am too
young to die" yes, for Doris

Thoughtful and inquisitive; Her
interest universal and keen. !.
And what a listner she was!
These crowded parlors and
these magnificent floral dis
plays attest the great esteem
and affection of her count

her artistry and technical per-
lection, Doris was a friendly
soul.
We know full well that we
are not here on earth to live
forever; but we do wish that
whether our life here be long
or short, we shall leave behind
us loving friends and sweet
and precious memories.
We know too that in our
departure we do not sink into
nothingless; but that believing
in love and trusting in God,
we shall yet awake to the con-

Old Post BuiIdinq
To Be Torn Down
For Parking Garage

The old Washington Post
building at 1887 e street NV,
is to be torn down to make way
for a parking garage.
The De Sales Street Corp, a
parking organization, announced
yesterday it has leased the site
Of the former newspaper plant
and that wreckers would start
dismantling the building today.
The building has been empty
since the Small Business Admin
stration moved out several
months ago. The Government
had rented 1t since the Post
moved to its present building at
1915 L street NV. in 1850.
The old-fashioned gray stone
building is owned by the estate
Of the late Henry K. Willard.
D. F. Antonelli, president of
the De Sales firm, said his COM
pany expects to complete a four
story, 250-car parking garage
on the site about a year from
now. Pending a start on con-
struction. the space will be used
for a parking lot.
Mr.. Antonelli, jr., and an as
sociate. F Warren Brokaw, own
three other parking enterprises
here, Federal Parking Services.
Inc. Auto Centers, Inc, and
A & B Parking Co. The three
companies operate 20 parking
lots and garages, including one
recently completed next to the
Occidental Restaurant on Penn
Sylvania avenue.
Both Mr.. Antonelli and Mr..
Brokaw at one time worked in
the old Post building as circula-
ton employees for that news
paper. They also were route
agents for The Star for some
years.
The Post moved into the old
building in 1893 from an earlier
building at Tenth and D streets
NV. Additions were built in
1904 and 1885.

U. 5. Not Considering
Tito Visit, Officials Say
BY the Assoeiofed Press

Officials said yesterday the
possibility of a visit to the United
States by Marshal Tito of Yugo-
slavia is not under consideration
here.
Leo Mates, Tito's new Ambas-
sador to Washington. said on
arrival in New York yesterday
that the marshal would accept
an invitation to visit this coun-
try.
Similar indications of Tito's
interest in coming here have
emanated before from oficial
Yugoslav sources. but the United
States Government has never
picked up the idea. Pre-
sumably officials feel such
a visit might raise COM
plications or controversy which
would Offset it's goodwill pur-
poses. since Tito. though anti
Soviet. is a Communist with a
record of conflict with the Cath
Ole church in his country.

House Group Delays
Decision on Security
Until After Easter

Supporters of st. Lawrence
seaway legislation faced a new
delay today in bringing the meas
ure to the House floor for final
action.
The House Rules Committee,
after a lengthy hearing yester-
day. decided to postpone further
consideration of the bill until
after the Easter recess.
Representative Dondero, Re-
publican of Michigan, chairman
of the House Public Works Com
mittee that sent the bill to the
rules group on February 3. was
obviously nettled by the new
delay.
This matter" ne told Chair
man Allen. of the Rules Com
mittee, should be expedited and
disposed of-by the House be-
fore the Easter recess" The To-
day recess begins April l6.
II don't think it can be done, ~
Mr.. Allen said.
The bill was passed by the
Senate in January. Mr.. Allen
said his committee needed at
least one more day to hear all
who wished to testify.
Fear LOg-Jam at Finish.
Supporters of the bill fear
further delays might snare the
bill in a log-jam near the end of

starting July although this
interpretation was in dispute.
$4,000 In Following Year.
They. planned an amendment
to the omnibus housing bill to
authorize another $4,000 units
in the following fiscal year. They
said this would be a good start
on President Eisenhower'S re-
quest for $4,000 units each year
for four years-and the latter
two years could be considered
later.
The housing bill would permit
Gen. Eisenhower to fix interest
rates on loans insured by the
Veterans Administration and the
FILA up to point 2l2 per cent
above the average yield on long
term Government bonds.
AT the present market, this
would be a maximum of 5A
per cent interest. The current
maximum on CT loans is 40
per cent. The rate for FILA
loans is per cent although the
present law permits even higher
rates.
Drop in Down Payments.
The House voted tentatively
yesterday to permit the Presi-
dent to drop down payments on
FILA home loans even lower than
the President had proposed. The
bill gives the President power
to provide the easiest terms and
does not make them mandatory.
Under the bill as brought to
the House, the minimum down
payment on a home valued by
FILA at $4,000 could be re-
duced from $2.400 to $1,400; at
$4,000. from $4,000 to $2,15O;
and at $4,000, from $4,000 to
$3.400.
The amendment would permit
down payments to be lowered an
additional $400 i'm each case. But
it was subject to reversal on a
roll-call vote today.

Office safe.
AS he adjourned court for the
day. Judge Morris declared he
wanted to know more regarding
the matter.
Neither Sheriff Beall nor Mr..
Lancaster were expected to tes-
tify as trial witnesses, it was
said, but were called in only to
shed light on the other witnesses
the prosecution plans to call.
Defense counsel are trying to
show that leads were obtained
to the witnesses questioned by
Sheriff Beall as a result of the
Nelson records.
The jury in the U. S. District
Court for the District of Column
bia was excused throughout the
afternoon, while the witnesses
the Government proposed to put
on the stand were discussed.
Witnesses Name Rowland.
During brief trial session
earlier yesterday, with the jury
present, two brothers testified
they had picked up numbers bets
and turned them over to Robert
L. Nowland. one of the gambling
case defendants. The brothers
are Norman and Roy Shields.
The first testified he was a num-
bers pickup man until about
1947, when he said he turned
that business over to his brother
Roy.
Roy Shields testified he picked
up numbers bets in the District
until sometime in 1851 and
turned them over to Mr.. Now
land in nearby Maryland. Mr..
Rowland sometimes was accom-
panied by Mrs. Rowland, the wit
ness said. The Shields are
colored.
Defendants in the case include
Nelson, wealthy Maryland farm
er; his wife. Mrs. Virginia Madge
Nelson: the Rowland couple and
Blight H. Lee, who are accused
of conspiracy to. violate gambling
law and promoting a lottery. The
sixth defendant is James E.
Lowry. retired Washington police
officer. who is accused on a single
charge of promoting lottery.

House | leaders, Hope
To Get Approval Of
Housing Bill Today
BY The Associated Press

Republican leaders hoped to
push through the House today
a controversial proposal to keep
the administrations housing pro-
gram alive with authority for 35,-
600 new units after next fiscal
year.
With one bloc of House men,
bers bent on killing public
housing and another bloc aim
ing at a much bigger program.
G. o. p. strategists conceded
the issue could be close.
Time to vote on a 226-page
revamping of housing laws APP
preached after a week long
scrap. Major issues include
interest rates on Federal Hous-
ing Administration and Gil
loans, easier terms for FILA
home buyers, and the avail
ability Of money for mortgages.
G. o. p. Leaders Confident.
Republican leaders voiced
confidence they would pass the
measure-in one form or an
other-and sent it to the Sem
ate late today.
Administration sponsors told
the House yesterday the bill
would assure record of IA mil
lion new houses this year, help
to tear down sldms and improve
older homes.
Chairman Wolcott of the
Banking Committee said the
program should satisfy the
most liberal member and yet not
alarm the most conservative"
But many Democrats insisted
it was inadequate and would
lead to higher interest rates on
veterans home loans.
Other opponents accuse
sponsors of the bill of trying to
"out-deal the New Deal"
Republican leaders said an APP
preparations bill passed Wednes-
day would leave authority to
build $4,000 low-rent public
housing units in the fiscal year

TOKYO, April 1.-The term
of japanese war criminal re-
leased by mistake early this year
and then clapped back into
prison to serve a life sentence
has been cut to 20 years, the
japanese Foreign Office an
nounced today.
The foreign Office said Tetsua
Hayashi was given the reduc.
ton in sentence by the Neither.
lands government, which con-
yicted him and sentenced him to
life on March /. 1947.
Hayashi was released early
this year when a Dutch clerk
erred and told prison officials

few weeks of freedom he was
sent back to Sugamo Prison to

indications that an effort to
amend its financing provisions
will be made by Representative
Brownson, Republican,of Indiana
Mr.. Brownson has said he will
propose that the $105 million
American share be raised through
sale of revenue bonds to private
investors - rather than to the
Treasury as the bill would pro-
vide. The Treasury Department.
and Canada oppose the amend
ment.
Gripping Of Bill Feared.
N. r. Danielian, president Of
the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence
Association. told reporters the
proposed !. amendment would
cripple" the bill.
He said he did not want the
project to "wallow in the New
York money market for an in
definite time"
The arguments for and against
the seaway heard yesterday by
the Rules Committee were the
same that Congress has been
hearing for more than 20 years.
However, Representative Steed,
Democrat, of Oklahoma, who is
opposed to the bill and thinks
it will be defeated if it gets to
the House. urged the committee
to send it to the floor.
Mr.. Steed said: Canada has
been patient in cooperating
with our Government in this
matter. We owe it to the Cana
dian government to decide the
issue at this session of Congress.
But I just can't see the neces-
sity for the United States to OBJ
ligate itself when we can get the
seaway without spending. one
nickel. 2
His reference was based on
Canadassa official notice that
should Congress reject the sea-
way again this year, Canada
will build, it itself.

Nelson Trial Judge
Probes Eligibility
Status Of Witnesses

Federal Judge James w. Nor
ris is seeking additional infor-
nation to determine whether
testimony Of witnesses the pros
ecution plans to put on the
stand in the gambling trial OF
Charles E. Nelson and others
was obtained legally.
Arguments on the legality OF
the evidence are based on a. de-
cision Of the United States Court
of Appeals. The appellate court
held, in reversing an earlier con-
viction of Nelson and others,
that prosecution evidence intro
duced as result Of Nelson's rec
ords having been turned over to
the Senate Crime Investigating
Committee in 1851 was illegal.
Government counsel now seeks
to place on the stand witnesses
questioned by Prince Georges
County authorities in 1851 in
connection with gambling opera
tons in the county. A number
Of the witnesses were employees

Judge Morris adjourned court
yesterday. after Sheriff Carlton
Beall of Prince Georges County
and Carlyle j. Lancaster, the
county States attorney, had
been called to shed light on Wit
neSses the Government seeks to

Sheriff Beall testified he had
conducted an investigation in
the county and questioned the
witnesses independent of the
Nelson records. To establish the
time he questioned them, Attor-
ney Charles E. Ford, represent
ing one Of the defendants, asked

toned.
