Detailed Study
BY George Beveridse

The Commissioners today
commended a consultants' re-
port proposing an extensive 10
year war on Washington slums
but served notice they intend
to go slowly on the matter Of
adopting all its detailed pro-
posals.

said he would study, over the
weekend, the report submitted
by the consultants. Nathaniel
S. Keith and James w. Rouse.
"I will take it up with the
other Commissioners next week.
he said. But I think we will
want to review it in quite some
detail"
Col. Thomas A. Lane. En-
gineer Commissioner, said he felt
the report should be widely dis
tributed to give citizen groups
q chance to express reaction be-
fore the city heads go so far
as to adopt 1t as the Districts
official pattern for clearing

Designed rs Guide.
That is precisely the basic
purpose Of the consultantS' re-
porto propose a detailed guide
for bringing all possible munic-
ipal and private weapons to
bear against slums. Under the
new Federal Housing Act, such
a detailed guide must be adopted
as an official workable pro-
gram" before cities can qualify
for Federal aid.
The consultants suggested IL
specific areas be designated as
urban renewal" projetcs to be
carried out during the next
decade. The renewal" weapons
range from redevelopment, the
drastic razing and rebuilding
planned for Southwest WASH

areas-to such less drastic meas
ures as rehabilitating structures
and improving neighborhood
facilities to prevent their deteri-
Grafton.
Area Planning Emphasized.
The consultants stressed that,
In each Instance, area-wide plan-
ming must be the first step. In
considerable detail, they pro-
posed the mechanics and ad-
ministrative machinery they feel
is necessary to do the job.
Col. Lane and Mr.. Spencer
said they were impressed at the
thoroughness Of the report.
Col. Lane also emphasized
that the challenge posed by the
report sis not academic or re-
mote" but very critical-a pro-
gram we must go into seriously
and Immediately"
After study and possible re-
visions, Col. Lane said, he felt
the essential points of the re-
port would be adopted as the
required city official program.
But among points he wants to
check. he stressed, are its cost,
particularly in view of the city's
fiscal position.
The consultants said their II
areas contain about 65, 900 dwell
ings, about one-fourth of the
city's total. OF that $1,000
about 10000 are substandard-
about three-fourths of all the
city's substandard housing.

Of Political Statements
Not Labeled as Ads

Political candidates could
spend money for radio and
television time to get their views
to the public, but newspapers
would be compelled to print their
outpourings free--if the Mary
land General Assembly enacts q
bill to recodify the States elec-
ton laws.
These provisions Of the bill
drew the fire today of the Mary
land Press Association, whose
president. Norman L. Harring-
ton. said the proposals tread
indiscrirninately on the consti-
tutional rights of free speech
ard free press"
VIII BE Invited to Testify.
The associations views were
sent to Senate President Louis
Goldstein and Senator Fred
Malkus. cairman of the Senate
Judiciary Committee. Senator
Goldstein said critics of the bill
will be invited to testify at o
legislative hearing.
Mr.. Harrington noted that:
Section 2l8, perhaps through
error In preparation. specifically
permits hiring of radio and tele-
vision time for speeches and adj
vertising but. except by impli-
cation, does not permit news
paper advertising except for an
nouncement of meetings and
publication of a sample ballot.
Section 221 would require
newspapers to publish anything
handed them by a campaign
treasurer or political agent. but
specifically forbids the newspa-
per from labelling such material.
whatever its content, as an ad-
vertisement."
Associations Letter.
Following is the text Of the
letter approved by the press as
sociation's Board Of Governors
and signed by Mr.. Harrington:
"The Maryland Press Associa-
tion, through unanimous action

sion this date, expressed pro-

UNITED NATIONS. N. Y.
R.-U. N. Secretary General
Dag Hammarskiold conferred
today with five more U. N.
Ambassadors in the second
stage Of his campaign to win
freedom for U. N. prisoners
in Red China, including II
American flyers jailed on
espionage charges.
United Nations Secretary Cen
eral Dag Hammarskjold began q
new round of conferences in
New York today in his efforts to
obtain the release Of IL American
airmen and other U. N. person.
mel held captive by the Chinese
Reds.
He continued huddles with the
chiefs of the main U. N. dele
cations with the assurance by
President Eisenhower that he
would have the full and patient
support of the United States In
his negotiations with the Peiping
regime.
Mr.. Eisenhower yesterday
called on all Americans to forego
any talk Of "reprisal or retalia-
ton" while the U. N. attempts
to work out the problem. De-
claring that the fundamental
thing" is the safe return Of the
flyers, the President said:
I'VE must support the United
Nations in its efforts so long as
those efforts hold out any prom
ise OF success"
Seen Aimed at Congress.
The Presidents statement was
said to have been aimed at fore
stalling tough talk from mem-
bers Of Congress. which. it Is
felt, could endanger the safety
Of the imprisoned men and their
chances for release.
Mr.. Hammarskjold echoed the
Presidents feelings when he told
newsmen that blasting /. =.
win certainly have q response
of the same kind.
He said meetings with Red
China's Premier Chou En-lai In
Peiping we're just the beginning
OF negotiations. Asked whether
he thought these talks were sue
cessful. he replied:
'If by successful you mean
that brought the flyers back In
the plane. you know they were
not successful. If by successful
you mean that achieved what
had hoped to achieve. they
were successful"
Mr.. Hammarskjold did not In
dicate how soon he expected
some concrete action on freeing
the airmen, but said he did not
think another trip to Peiping
would be necessary.
Confers With Enjoys.
He conferred yesterday with
the U. N. ambassadors from
Britain, France, Soviet Russia,
Canada and the Netherlands. His
schedule today included the
chiefs Of the delegations Of Ma
tionalist China. Turkey and
India.
Mr.. Hammarskjold first con-
ferred with Henry Cabot Lodge.

what was described as q routine
briefing.
Mr.. Dulles then talked with
Mr.. Eisenhower by telephone and
the Presidents statement was
released after that conversation.
Mr.. Eisenhower said the first
reaction to the failure to win
immediate release for the flyers
quite naturally -. is disap-
pointment." He added:

that our airn1en have not been
long since released by their COM

Ponomo President Impeoched
In Remon Killing as Lawyers s

Guizodo ousted;
Ricardo Arius Is
Named Successor
By .hs Assoeiassd Press

PANAMA, Jan. 15.-The Ma
tional Assembly today impeached
President Jose Ramon Guizado
and ordered his arrest and trial
on . charge Of plotting the assas-
sination Of his predecessor. Jose
Antonio Remon.
Then, after almost four hours
Of a special session which started
at $3.50 am, the lawmakers swofe
in second Vice President Ricardo
Arias Espinosa as the third chief
executive Of this strategic Cen
tral American republic In two
weeks.
The assembly was summoned
TO hear the sensational confess
sion Of Ruben Miro. prominent
lawyer, that he carried out the
machine cunning OF Remon at
o race track here on January 2
with Guizado's full knowledge.
Mr.. Grizado. as first Vice Presi-
dent, became President immedi-
ately after the killing.
Calls Story SenseIess.
Under house arrest since yes
terday. he assailed Miro's story
as "SenseleSs."
Mr.. Guizado had asked the
Assembly for q leave Of absence
pending investigation Of the
charges against him.
But the lawmakers turned
down the request after hearing
a chamber clerk read the con-
fession from Miro, who said he
was the man who fired into q
lighted enclosure at the race
track, killing President Remon
and two others.
Mr.. Arias, who also Is the for
eign minister, was sworn into
Office at 7:16 am.
Miro's confession said the |
murder plot was carried out at |
the instigation and with the |
knowledge Of Mr.. Guizado and |
the latter's business partner,
Rodolfo Saint Malo. 1t said Mr.. |
Guizado's son. Jose Ramon. jr., |
also was in the plot.
Three Arrested Yesterday.
The younger Guizado, Saint
Malo and Tomas Nieves Perez,
another member of the con-
struction firm headed by the |
President. were arrested yester-
day.
The scion of a prominent |
Panamanian family, Miro said |
he had been promised the gov
ernment and justice ministry in |
the national cabinet as his re-
ward for the assassination of
Mr.. Remon. He said no money
was involved.
According to the confession,
made to authorities yesterday,
Miro carried out the killing
alone. He said he borrowed the
machine gun used in the shoot
ing from a Panamanian who
formerly attended a technical
school in Guatemala.
Miro's confession was read by
the Assemhly's clerk to the spe-
cial session, which began only
q few hours after Mr.. Guibado
sent the chambers president his
request for a leave.
Asked For Time.
Mr.. Guizado acted after cabi-
net ministers called at his police
guarded home to inform him
officially Of the charges against
him. The president repeatedly
asked to be given until 8 am. to
decide his next step but authori-
ties apparently we're determined
to press for his removal from
Office.
In his message to the As
sembly, Mr.. Guizado said he was
asking for the leave until the
acts imputed to me through the
senseless declarations made by
Ruben Miro are cleared up"
