Return 10 Prison
Breaks Honeymoon

A good-looking young man
who. police said. has had four
wives in four years, was slated
to be returned today to the State
penitentiary in Richmond, fol-
lowing his arrest yesterday in the
Mayflower Hotel while on his
latest honeymoon.
Charles Wesley Thompson. %.
of Herndon. Va. volunteered to
surrender himself in Arlington,
Va, police said, and to serve two
years for violating probation,
once imposed for grand larceny
through fraudulent bank check
there last September.
The strange story was unfolded
last night by 1t. David A. Hig-
gins, of the Metropolitan police
check and fraud squad.
1t. Higgins said Thompson
was spending his honeymoon in
the hotel with a new 22-year-old
bride. They also said Thompson
never bothered to divorce three
other wives.
Thompson encountered his
second and fourth wives late
yesterday in police headquar-
ters. The first one he met in
Lawton, Okla. in 1851. No. 2
he met in Arlington in June,
1851; No. 3 in Arlington in Feb
ruary, 1858, and No. 4, this year
in Maryland.
Thompson was picked up here
in 1883 for false pretenses and
paid q 500 fine in lieu of SPEND
ing 80 days in Jail, police said.
The Arlington charge specifies
that Thompson. in September,
1854, was convicted on the bank
charge, and was given three
years probation and a two-year
suspended sentence. But. ac-
cording to the police, he left his
employment as a grocery clerk
in Arlington and failed to report
to the authorities.

Curtice Earnings in '54

General Motors has disclosed
that its president. Harlow H.
Curtice. got 1886, 100 last year in
salary, fees and bonuses.
1t is impossible to figure how
much take home pay this
amount would provide without
details of Mr.. Curtice's finances.
But a guess based on the figures
released by GIN in a stock pro-
spectus indicates about 500, 900.
That might be close or it might
be a long way off, depending on

Officials in 81 States
Oppose School Bill,
Educator Testifies
BY The Assoeioisd Press

The Senate Labor Committee,
which is studying President
Eisenhower's school building pro-
gram, has been told that chief
education officers in 81 of 80
States polled were opposed to
most or all Of the bill.
DR.. Edgar Fuller. executive
secretary of the Council Of Chief
State School ofiicers. read into
the record a blast Of criticism he
said he had received by tele-
phone, telegram and letter from
the 81 State educational chiefs.
Offiicals of the other two States
Nebraska and Indiana-re-
ported they were against Fed
eral aid to education on prin-
ciple and that if States exerted
themselves sufficiently it would
not be needed.
Totally Inadequate"
A Missouri official called the
program totally inadequate"
while Montanan called it "ut-
terly useless" to most States.
But Senator Allott, Republican,
Of Colorado, a member of the
committee studying the Presi-
dents program, drew from DR..
Fuller an acknowledgement that
the replies did not necessarily
reflect the view of State Cover
nors or State Legislatures.
Senator Allott said that Gov.
McKeldin of Maryland was re-
Gently quoted as being in COM
plete accord" with the Presidents
school-aid bill. 1t is based pri-
marily on a system of Federal
loans to back up local school
bonds, together with a SGT mil
lion three-year program of direct
Federal aid to enable local dis
tricts to qualify for the loan
program.
DR.. Fuller had quoted Mary
lands chief school officer as
terming the program of mo ad-
vantage" to his State.
Sen. Allott asked whether DR..
Fuller, in his request for reaction
to the Presidents program from
State school officers. had speci-
f1cally sought to extract criti-
ciSm.
Details Pinpointed.
DR.. Fuller said no, that his
message to the States outlined
the Presidents program in some
detail and pinpointed those
parts of the bill Questionable"
to his, organizations standing
policies.
He denied any effort to exert
pressure. The chief school Off
GERS of the 48 States, he said.
have jobs to do under their
State constitutions. He called
them professionals" and the
most independent people
know" and said they belong to
all political parties.
/; DR.. Fuller himself had some
harsh words for Mr.. Eisenhower's
program.
He said. for one thing, that the
Federal Government will even
tually make a profit at the ex-
pense of the school districts OF
the country most in need" be-
cause of what he called high in
terest rates on the Federal loans.
AS a whole, he said, the Presi-
dents bill was filled with pit
falls and obstacles of every sort"
1t was not. he said, "a even-bil-
lion-dollar plan as widely adver-
tised."
His organization favors a di-
rect Federal aid program as the
only method Of attacking an
existing classroom shortage esti-
mated at more than 800, 900.
Not one educator heard by the
committee so far has supported
the Eisenhower program.
