siX-and-a half weeks and that he
had been confined to within 10
miles of Paris Island for nearly
four-an-a-half more months dur
ing and since the trial.
He then went on to say that
because of those circumstances he
had decided on a three month
sentence, adding that this, to-
gether with approximately six
months Of previous confinement
and restriction will to all prac-
tical purposes carry out the
courts sentence.
Asked to clarity this phrase
ology, a Navy spokesman then
said McKeon had already served
approximately two months since
the passing of the sentence, and
that under the law that period
would count against the three
months imposed by Mr.. Thomas.

terday, 81 wanted a baby so much
l just took one"
Met Mother in Store
Police gave this version of the
kidnapping:
Mrs. Bynum was in South
west Side store Thursday when
she saw the mother and child.
She struck up a conversation and
then feigned illness.
The mother invited her to the
Butcher home, where Mrs. Bynnm
told of marital difficulties After
spending a few hours in the
Butcher home, Mrs. Bynum was
asked to leave. She then asked
Mrs. Butcher to call for a taxi
cab. Mrs. Butcher went to a
drugstore, leaving Mrs. Bynum
with her baby. When she re-
turned, Mrs. Bynum and the
infant were missing.
Some 400 police canvassed the
area yesterday and found Nor
bert Kowalski, who reported that
a woman carrying an infant had
asked him for a ride to her
home. He led police to the By
mum home, about four miles
from the Butcher home, and
found the infant with Mrs.
Bynum.
The Bynums came to Chicago
four years ago from Elkhart
Ind. Mrs. Bynum's home town,
where they were married. MIR
Bynum said he was born at

wife and their five children.
After photographs appeared in
newspapers of the father ano
mother of the abducted baby

Butcher was really her husband
Thomas R. Paterimos, 81. and
that he had deserted her and

Admits Accusations
He admitted the accusations
and also admitted he had never
legally married Mrs. Butcher. He
was charged with nonsupport,
adultery and child abandon
ment.
AuthorltleS said Mrs. Bynum,
who has been charged with kid
mapping Ronald Butcher, started
telling neighbors and friends a
month ago that she was going
to have baby.
Her husband of five years,
Charles Bynum, a bus driver,
was quoted by police as saying
he didn't know whether his wife
was pregnant, but said she be-
gan wearing maternity dresses.
Three weeks ago she bought a
bassinet.

.Stassen AssaiIs
Stevenson

CAMBRIDGE. Mass, Oct. G
R.-Presidential Assistant Har-
old E. Stassen has aSsailed Adlal
E. Stevenson for what he called
many instances of maladminis-
tration" as Governor of Illinois
Mr.. StaSsen, who is President
Eisenhower's special assistant on
disarmament. made his first
campaign speech for the Eisen-
hower-NiXon ticket last night
before a Harvard Massachusetts
Institute of Technology public
forum.
He compared critical sniping'
by Democrats at Mr.. Eisenhow-
er's leadership to "a Sandlot
slugger saying that the trouble
with Mickey Mantle is that ne
does not know how to hold the
hickory"
Suggests Questions
Mr.. Stassen said:
Thus I believe that these i'm
portant questions should bt
asked by independent and unde-
cided voters, Can a relatively
weak Governor of Illinois make
a good President of the United
States?' Can he measure up tc
what this critical time requires
in American"
Mr.. Stassen spoke before the
same group to which former
President Truman made the
statement last Friday that Mr.
Eisenhower doesn't lead his
party-he fronts for it."
Mr.. Stassen made lengthy
defense of Mr.. Eisenhower's lead
ership qualities. Then he asked
his audience to look at the
alternatives"
Recalls GOvernOrShip
He said:
I'VE recall that the opposition
nominee served for four years as
Governor of the State of Illinois
This was the only public or pri-
vate responsibility of any major
consequence which he has ever
held.
II do not know Of any inn
partial observer who evaluated
his four years of governorship
as outstanding"
Mr. Stassen made only passing
reference to his abortive attempt
to replace Vice President Nixon
with Massachusetts, Gov. Chris
tisn A. Herter on the Republic
can ticket.
He said a successful two-party
system requires that those with.
in a party except wholeheart-
eddy the decisions when finally
made. And close ranks for
the final election"

officer with command authority
could not be justified, however
He said his tragic failure to meet
command responsibility may have
constituted merely a single lapse
in his performance of duty, but
added: Just one lapse resulting
in such serious consequences is
just one lapse too many"

Campaign Opened
To Shift Cotton
Exchange to South

MEMPHIS. Tenn, Sept. 7 up.
-Cottonmen are campaigning to
have the New York Cotton Ex-
change move its operations to
Memphis.
Memphis is the worlds biggest
spot cotton market. Such a
move would make it also the
center of futures markets opera
tions.
The Commercial Appeal to-
day said downtown site may
be leased as the location for an
Office building to house the Ex-
change.
The proposal to move the
major exchange came to light
yesterday after 80 Memphis
members of the Exchange urged
a delay in signing a new lease
for its present quarters.
A special committee of five
was named to draft a formal
transfer proposal, expected to
draw quick rival propositions
from other cotton centers such
as New Orleans, Dallas and
Houston.
Advocates of the move argue
that New York is no longer the
strategic point between the
cottonbelt and consuming tex
tile mills.
Much of the textile industry
once located in New Orleans has
moved south.

Evidently the same mood Is

to strengthen Federal bonds and

Seasonal Money Needs
Haven't Even Started
Commenting on the tight
market. another banker here
said: I'VE are up against the
barriers now, and the real sea-
sonal needs for funds haven't
even begun to appear"
A large postwar crop of spec
ulators already is being shaken
/, out of the economic structure
especially in construction and the
building supply field where top
heavy inventories have become
a real problem, it also was re-
ported. Spectators in steel and
other products were said to be
in a vulnerable position with
bank loans being called on ma
turity.
Loans for corporate purchase
deals such as Louis E. Wolfson's
for Capital Transit are said to be
out of the question now. One
nationally known real estate
promoter from New York was
reported to have pleaded here
recently for a let-up in reserve
policy because of its effect on his
operations.
In addition to big spectators,
small business firms without ade-
squate reserves and capital are
among the worst hit by the pres
ent financial drought, it is be-
coming evident.
Inflationary Pay Increases
Seen as Powerful Offset
The bankers approve of the
Federal Reserve Boards basic
aim Of keeping down imitation
through credit restraint although
some are beginning to wonder
whether credit controls can ward
of imitation from a new round
of wage increases for long.
Among many other elements
of a Nationwide situation, were
said to be large corporate bank
borrowings. some made many
months ago with the idea of
holding off permanent financing
for more favorable market.
The market has grown still
more unfavorable and a number
of banks, principally in New
York, we're repeatedly faced with
the task of telling these borrow
ers they must go elsewhere.
The bankers indicated the sit
uation is not as tight here as in
New York and other cities and
some said there had been an &C.
tual easing in the last month,
but most of them are making
loans only to old customers or
new ones, who can guarantee
attractive deposit balances. The
deposit requirements were said
to run as high as 10 to is per
cent OF the loan.
The work necessary to Gull
over the flood of loan applica-
tons is tough on loan officers
and even the presidents. Said
one sadly: Il sure hate to turn
away all of that business
