AS Kidnupers

NEW YORK, June 20 (P). -
Two husky New Englanders
have been booked on kidnapping
charges. accused of abducting
and robbing a bankers son in

him to New York.
The victim. John T. Degnan,
81, an aeronautical engineer
from Plandome, N. Y, broke
from the alleged kidnapers early
yesterday on a New York street
and ran shouting to a policeman.
Mr.. Degnan told police he had
decided during a five-hour ride
from Boston to risk all on one
break. He said:
II co-operated with them all
the way down. I didn't make
any break because / figured I'd
just make one try and if l made
it-well, OK"
Mr.. Degnan's story of the al
legged kidnapping and robbery led
to the arrest of Robert D. Burns,
81, a distillery worker, and Will
liam j. Cleary, 81, a laborer, both

Besides kidnapping, the two
were charged with assault, rob-
berry and possession of illegal
weapons. The FBI took state
mentS from them, since there
was a possible violation of Fed
eral kidnapping laws.
Mr.. Degnan said the two men
robbed him of SGT. a watch and
a ring. They discussed getting
more money through his father,
a vice president of the New York
Trust Co.
Mr.. Degnan said he was giving
the men a ride after chance

The clash occurred during {

ling at which recent Illinois banI

mittee is making an overall
study Of the possible need fol
revising Federal bank laws.
Orville Hodge, former Illinois
State auditor, is serving a prison

federally insured funds in a STATE
bank.

Senator Douglas disagreed

laws.
Although Mr.. GreenSides dis.
puted this, Senator Douglas sale
the FDIC apparently felt it,
Operations were $50 perfect" that
they needed no improvement.
Senator Douglas called thi'
"the height Of bureaucratic self.
satisfaction" He said Recon.
struction Finance Corp. officials
under investigation by the bank
ling committee several years ago
had similarly been 80 satisfied
with what they were doing" that
they wouldn't accept criticism Oh
suggestions.
Much of the questioning yes
terday dealt with what Senator
douglas called the failure Of
FDIC examiners to find a cash
envelope from which Hodge took
State funds.
Thorough Examination"
Senator Douglas said earlier
testimony showed that the en-
velope containing the cash was
in a cash box in a cage Of one Of
the Southmoor tellers.
Mr.. Greensides said there may
have been "a human failure" by
the examiner who checked the
cash accounts in that cage, but
he insisted the FDIC had made
"a thorough examination" Of the
bank. He said 1t was "basically
Ian excellent examination"
H. Earl Cook, the FDIC chair
man. also testified in answer tc

that the FDIC examiners were

hard hit.
Before the recent events in
Egypt and Hungary. there had
been some reports that defense
agencies planned to trim even
more their civilian personnel.
However, recent events have
changed the situation entirely
and there are now reports that
top defense officials are consid-
ering an increase in civilian jobs.
At any rate. defense officials say
there will be no reduction in
civilian employment in defense
agencies during the next year.
Meanwhile, the Air Force be-
fore the recent international
crisis, imposed a freeze on new
civilian hiring. Only vacancies
considered critical will be filled.
Air Force officials said the
freeze was applied because Con-
gress had voted the Air Force
funds to enlarge its civilian staff,
and appointments wer, being
made at too rapid a rate.
However, in view of the inter-
national situation, the freeze is
expected to be lifted shortly.
