here. the Washington Criminal
Justice Association today recon-
mended to a House subcom-
mittee.
The District. according to the
witness, Mrs. Sally M. Orrisom.
the associations executive di-
rector. is faced with "the most
serious type of drug addiction
and addicts most difficult to
treat"
Testifying before a House
Ways and Means Subcommittee
headed by Representative Boggs.
Democrat of Louisiana, she said
the association is just complet-
ling a comprehensive study of
enforcement of the so-called
|Boggs Act in District Court here.
Officials pointed out that in
the District both the Boggs Acts
heavy penalties and the Districts
|indeterminate sentence law are
applicable.
Highlights Of Study
The witness announced that
the study of enforcement win be
disclosed soon. She referred only
to some Of its highlights but de-
clared that the study disclosed a
gradual increase in the length of
sentences meted out.
/ She pointed out. however, that
this is based on the maximum
sentences received and that a
few lengthy sentences greatly
affect the average.
The study indicates, she tes-
titled, that the minimum SEN
tence handed defendants here
some times does not meet the
requirements Of the Boggs Act.
The maximum sentence, she
added, falls short. Of that pre-
scribed by the Boggs Act in
many instances.
Asked by Chairman Boggs to-
explain this statement and am
plify it, the witness said she pre-
ferred to wait until the commit
tee was presented with the study
which goes back to 1882. 4
Breakdown to Be Shown

various breakdowns. such as age.
race and sex Of the defendants,
the charge and disposition Of the
case.
Quoting the Federal Bureau Of
Narcotics, Mrs. Orison said the

Second Term
Report Denied
BY GARRETT d. HORNER
star staff correspondent

SpeA OeNA NNAhNebSANSHt
GETTYSBURG, Pa, Dec. IS.
The White House today denied
a report that President Eisen-
hover at least would not bow
out as possible candidate be-
fore mid-March.
The denial served to leave as
much UP in the air as ever Mr..
Eisenhower'si intentions about a
second term.
White House Press Secretary
James c. Hagerty was asked
about a wire service report that
Eisenhower Republican hackers
in New Hampshire had been
assured by an administration
lieutenant that the President
would not renounce a second
term before their March Is
primary.
Checks on Report
Mr.. Hagerty at first said he
knew nothing about the report OF
the possibility, suggested by a
reporter, that Presidential AS
sistant Sherman Adams might
have given the reported go-ahead
ito New Hampshire pro- isen-
hover Republicans. Mr.. Adams
formerly was. governor of New
Hampshire.
Less than an hour later, after
checking with Mr.. Adams. Mr.,
iHagerty called newsmen to-
gether to read this statement:
II do not know the origin of
the report. To my knowledge,
nothing of this sort has origi-
mated from any one In the White
House"
A reporter then asked Mr.. Hag-
erty If there was anything he
could say about the Presidents
intentions regarding entering
Republican primaries next year.
II can't comment on anything
i don't know anything about. ="
he replied.
No Way of Knowing
Asked If he thought there
would be any announcement by
Mr.. Eisenhower regarding his
second term intentions before
the deadline for filing in the New
Hampshire primary. Mr.. Hagerty
shrugged his shoulders and said:
How do I know"
Significance Of the reported
Igo-ahead to Eisenhower hackers
lin New Hampshire was that such
assurance would enable them to
run in the Republican primary
las Eisenhower delegates without
risking reputation If the Presi-
dent should decide later against
Ia second term. If he still were
a possible candidate at the time
of the primary voting, but bowed
out later, the delegates named
as backing him could go on to
the Republican convention un-
pledged.

Papers Face
Shortage OF
INewsprint

NEW YORK. Nov. II LR.-
Stocks of newsprint held by
United States newspapers have
dropped to the lowest level since
June. 1888, the American News
paper Publishers Association re-
ports today.
I, At the same time. the Wall
Street Journal said some news
papers are considering cutbacks
lin advertising during the Christ
mas season in order to conserve
dwindling supplies of newsprint.
1t said some papers have raised
their advertising rates.
The ANPA reported stocks Of
Inewsprint on hand and in transit
lat the end of october were 81
days supply. This is 10 days
supply under October 81. 1854,
and six days under September
80, 1856. Many publishers like
to have 80 to 60-day supplies in
the Christmas period.
Consumption of newsprint in
the United States in the first 10
months of 1855 rose to a record
4, 1853, 1928 tons, a gain of 81 per
cent over the 3.855, 1896 tons in
the like period last year. the
ANPA said.
In October. consumption by
United States newspapers report
ing to ANPA amounted to 49,
934 tons. a Jump of 9.5 per cent
over October, 1854, and lis per
cent over October, 1858. Figures
are based on 525 United States
newspapers. which used around
three-fourths of the newsprint
consumed in this country.
Rising exports Of newsprint to
Europe and other overseas points
has helped to aggravate the do
nestle shortage.
