Lie Tests PIunned
On Lumurr Gems

HOUSTON, Tex. May 81 tR1.
Actress Hedy Lamar spent
two hours at police headquarters
but detectives said she was too
upset to take a lie detector test.
Miss Lamar had agreed yes
terday to be questioned about
the disappearance Of $50.000 in
jewels from her home Tuesday.
Detective B. M. Squyres said
Miss Lamar was too upset for
the polygraph to function prop
erly. Three attempts were made
to give her the test, but each was
inconclusive.
Earlier Miss Lamarr's husband,
Gilman w. Howard Lee, was
given a test by Detective Squyres.
The detective said the test
showed Mr.. Lee was telling the
truth when he denied any knowl-
edge Of the whereabouts of the
Jewels.

Senate Group
0k'sAid Bill
BY J. A. OLEARY

= The administrations $3.4 bill
lion foreign aid program for
next year has cleared its first
hurdle in Congress without ma
terial change.
The Senate Foreign Relations
Committee approved the bill late
yesterday, 13 to and the Senate
is expected to pass it next week.
Senators Morse, Democrat of
Oregon, and LANCER, Republican
of North Dakota, cast the oppo-
sition votes.
Correction, Not Reduction
Although the total as reported
is $122 million under the Presi-
dents request. Chairman George
explained the change is a cor
rection and not a reduction in
the size of the program. He said
the committee found an unex-
pended balance was available
for one item for which new
money had been requested.
The Senate group struck out
one controversial section which
would have given blanket author
ity to terminate the jobs of en-
ployes above the $4,000 salary
level, unless they had veterans
preference. in the process Of re-
organizing the foreign aid setup.
On July l the Foreign Oper-
atoms Administration will be
abolished, with military aid
going into the Defense Depart
ment and economic aid to the
State Department. Democrats
insisted on changing the person.
mel section to require the re-
organization to be carried out in
accordance with Civil Service as
well as veterans preference laws.
The Senate committee also
placed some limitations on
lump sum of 5000 million asked
for by the President for use in
Asia as economic aid. The COM
mittee directed half the money
must be in loans and that not
more than Is per cent may go
to any one country.
OF the total in this years bill
SIT billion is direct military aid
and another 81 billion is for de-
fense support. The remainder
is for various economic programs
to strengthen areas in all parts
Of the world that are still out
side of the Iron Curtain.

JAKARTA. Indonesia. May 81
R.-An ndone esian inquiry
committee charged today that
an Indian airliner which crashed
in the South China Sea April II
was destroyed by a time bomb.
Sixteen of the 19 person
aboard, including eight Red Chi
nese officials, were killed in the
crash.
In Hong Kong. the British
colonial government said "it
seems probable that the explo-
sive device was placed in the
aircraft in Hong Kong" The
British added that an official
investigation there was contin-
uing.
The Indonesian report, issued
as a government communique,
said that an inspection of the
wreckage had determined that
"the cause of this accident was
the explosion of a timed internal
machine placed in the starboard
wheel well of the aircraft"
The explosion of the bomb. it
added, resulted in the punctur-
ing of the No. 3 fuel tank and an
uncomfortable fire."
Recovery of parts of a
twisted, burnt and corroded
clockwork mechanism - which
has no relation to any equipment
or structure of the aircraft
trapped in the same area where
the explosion took place provided
irrefutable evidence of an in
fernal machine having been
placed in the area"
The committees findings were
based on the testimony of the
