Transit Blocks
Pension Checks
Union Hits Reprisul.
CTC Cites Contract
By HERMAN F. SCHADEN

Nearly 300 retired Capital
Transit Co. employees will miss
out on pension checks due Fri
day pending court determination
|of a new row over the validity
|of the pension fund during the
transit strike.
While streetcar and bus
wheels failed to turn for the 9th
day, Federal mediators arranged
"a rare bargaining session be-
tween the disputants this after
moon.
The pension strife, brewing for
days, broke into the open at a
union mass meeting last night
when Union President Walter j
Bierwagen charged the company
with blocking payment Of
checks in "cruel reprisal."

Ipany vice president, shot back
that this is "a distortion of the
truth" and said the union
shared equally in the RESPONSE
bility for tying up the $3,982, ,791
trust fund.
Bank Seeks Ruling
Caught in the middle as the
neutral trustee of the pension
fund, the Riggs National Bank
said it was clear there is a dis
Ipute as to whether the pension
plan continues to exist.
After a conference, George M.
Mckee, a Riggs vice president
and trust officer, and George E.
Hamilton, jr., bank counsel, said
they will ask the U. S. District
Court for the District of CO.
|lumbia to determine Friday or
Monday whether the pension
|plan still exists.
"In the event that the court
determines that the plan has
been terminated those who have
been receiving pensions and
those who were eligible for pen
Sions on date of termination of
the plan, will in the future re-
ceive payment to the extent
that the plan would permit" the
bank said. I'm the meantime,
they will be withheld pending
instructions by the court"

Soviet Chiefs
Favored Visits
Eisenhower Tells
Of Exchange Talk

President Eisenhower said to-
day that during the recent Big
Four conference at Geneva he
and Soviet delegates discussed
the possibility of an exchange
of visits by high-ranking Rus
sian and American officials.
Candidates for sucn visits ap-
Iparently ranged UP to President
Eisenhower and Soviet Premier
Bulganin themselves.
Mr.. Eisenhower discussed the
subject when he was asked at a
news conference whether he had
discussed at Geneva the posi-
bility of his going to the Soviet
Union and of high Soviet off,
Icials coming here.
On the agenda, he replied
was the subject of liberalizing
contacts, with citizens of each
country going to the other to
learn for themselves about the
other country.
Mr.. Eisenhower said that op-
Iportunities were discussed in
general, ranging through the
whole echelon of government.
Mr.. Eisenhower said posSibili-
ties along this line were dis
cussed in private conversations
and never were made in the
form of specific proposals.
Other Foreign Subjects
Mr.. Eisenhower also made
these statements on other
foreign policy subjects:
RED CLIMATIC meeting of
ambassadors of the United
States and Red China, scheduled
to start in Geneva next Monday,
eventually may be raised to the
level of foreign ministers to dis
cusS terms beyond the compe-
tence of the ambassadorial rep
resentativeS.
AERIAL INSPECTION - His
proposal for aerial inspection
of the United States and Russia
as part of an arms limitation
program would mean that he
would allow inspection aircraft
to fly over any part of the
United States, including atomic
plants. This would involve
changes of law which now bars
even American aircraft from
flying over atomic facilities.
MARSHAL ZHUKOV - The
Soviet Defense Minister during
private conversations with Mr.
Eisenhower at the Geneva Big
Four meeting emphasized what
he called the Soviet's deep de-
sire for peace and once spent a
full hour discussing Moscow's
new concept OF collective Ieao-
ership.
Excellent Relations
Mr.. Eisenhower said he got
along excellently with Marshal
Zhukov and in all his personal
contacts at Geneva saw nothing
that violated the rules Of good
manners.
Mr.. Eisenhower said Marshal
Zhukov, a wartime associate OF
the President, wanted to tell him
about Soviet life in general and
about his own life. Their first
conversation, Mr.. Eisenhower
related, lasted 21a hours.
Mr.. Eisenhower offered to keep
the exchanges secret, he said,

Greeks Suy:
So on Bourd

| ATHENS, July 27 R.-An
Israeli airliner was forced down
in flames in Communist Bull
garia today. Greek authorities
said Bulgarian antiaircraft gun
ners shot it down near the Greek
border and that all but perhaps
one OF the So persons aboard
must be considered dead.
At least three Americans were
aboard. The airline said they
were Mrs. j. Sheinbaum, a Mrs.
Katz and the latter's small
daughter. 1t did not release
their home addresses, but said
they were en- route from London
to Tel Aviv.
Israel, alerted that the Con-
Stellation had crashed from some
cause, said it had no official in
formation that Bulgarians fired
on it. A Foreign Ministry spokes-
man in Jerusalem said the
Israeli legation in Sofia has been
instructed urgently to investigate
circumstances of the crash.
Soldiers Report Crash
A special Greek government
statement, based on observations
of soldiers of the 10th Greek
Army division in Macedonia, said
the four-engine, American-built
craft of the Ell AL lines was felled
north of Petritsiu on a flight
from London to LYDIA, Israel.
The first word that anything
was amiss with the Constellation.
which took off from Vienna's
Schechat airport at 4 am. today
on the Vienna-Istanbul leg of it's
southwark journey, was an sos
intercepted by the airline opera
tions office and Rome monitors.
The message said the plane was
going down in flames.
Then came an announcement
by the Ell AL Office in London
that the plane, which took off
from London last night. was be-
lieved to have gone down, af1re,
near the Greek ek-Bulgarian bor-
der. A crew of Z and IA passen-
gers were aboard when the plane
left London. Other passengers
were picked up in Paris and
Vienna.
Bulgarian Firing Charged
In Tel Aviv, the airlines gen.
eral manager said the Constella-
tion made a forced landing in
Bulgaria after being fired on by
Bulgarian antiaircraft guns.
Against the Greek account
that So persons were aboard.
he said the Constellation car
ried $50 passengers, includ-
ing 3 children, and the crew of 7.

President Eisenhower is tenn
Iporarily suspending judgment
on the propriety of Secretary OF
the Air Force Talbott's outside
business activities, he told a
news conference today.
The President said he will de-
eide whether he wants to keep
Mr.. Talbot as head of the Air
Force only after the current
Senate investigation is COM
pleted and he reads all the
record.
Praising Mr.. Talbott's official
actions, Mr.. Eisenhower en-
phasized that no one has in
timated that the Secretary is
guilty of any wrong-doing in the
legal sense.
Question of Ethics
He made it clear that the big
question facing him is whether
the high standard of ethics he
has set for his Administration
has been violated.
The President said earnestly
that he does not beieve any man
can properly hold public office
merely because he is not guilty
of any illegal act.
He added that public SER
want should avoid any indis-
cretion that even leans in the
direction of using his Office i'm
properly or gives that appear
ance.

Etigation, Mr.. Eisenhower said

own power to increase the rate
as had been proposed by Dis
trict fiscal authorities.
Voting to keep the tax rate at
the old level were Commissioners
Thomas A. Lane and Robert
E. Mclaughlin. Commissioner
Samuel Spencer said he had
favored a 10-cent increase to
$3.50 in the rate.
Gen. Lane said the problem
created" by wage increases i'm
posed by Congress Should be
handled on a consolidated basis"
when Congress considers a full,
new tax program for the Dis
trict next January.
Unpopular View
Mr.. Spencer, who said he real
lied my view was not a popular
one" said failure to increase the
real estate rate now will produce
"a very aggravated situation in
January when we present our
tax program for action by Con-
gress." He said the proposed in
crease of less than S per cent
would not have been "out of
line" with similar boosts in
nearby counties of Virginia and
Maryland.
Public Hearing Held
The decision followed within
an hour after a public hearing in
the Board Room of the District
Building on the proposed in
crease.
At the session, 16 witnesses
unanimously opposed action by
the commissioners to increase
the rate now. Instead, they sug-
gested, the city heads should
wait until Congress can consider
the whole problem of District
revenues in January.
Strong opposition came from
Carey Winston, president of the
Washington Real Estate Board,
who repeated an earlier sug-
gestion that " a study group be
formed to provide the Commits
sioners with additional facts to
strengthen their requests for
larger Federal grants to pay for
the several social experiments
voted by Congress for the Dis
trict, which are not required of
other cities or States"
Similar views were expressed
by William Press, executive vice
president of the Washington
Board of Trade, speaking on be-
half Of the boards president,
Edward r. Carr. He pointed out
that the board had recon-
mended that the Commissioners
postpone seeking additional reve-
nue. until Congress conveneS in
January, 1856. That is our
policy today and we urge its
adoption by the Commissioners. "
