Seaman Pleads Guilty of Murder At Kodiak

ANCHORAGE, R-A witness flown from Washington, DC, tes- tified yesterday Gerald l.. Linam, 20, New Orleans Navy seaman, was in his bunk asleep while two other seamen engaged in a fight which resulted in ones death.

 Jenulis pleaded guilty last week to second degree murder for the beating death of Olaf Jensen on the Navy vessel Mission Soledad at Kodiak on March IT.
 The new witness testified that as he entered Linam's cabin with drink for Linam he found him asleep and Jensen and Jenulis wrestling on the floor.
 "Jenulis picked up a cot stick and hit Jensen," Mahoney testi- fled. ''The stick broke on the first or second blow. Then he Genulis) stood over him and beat him some more"

AFL Leader Will Not Support Beck

WASHINGTON, R-Teamster union moves to delay or talk their way out of showdown on AFL- CIO corruption charges seemed likely today to run into a solid re- buff from the federation.
 Sources in the parent federa- ton said trial procedures already set for Dave Beck, president of the teamsters union, and the huge trucking union itself are fair and ''leave no room for negotiation. The teamsters' executive board contended the charges against Beck were not specific, said i would attend no hearings unti fundamentals of fair adjudica tion" are assured.
 The AFL-CIO charges are based on Beck's invoking the 5th Amendment in refusing to tell Senate rackets investigators of his admtted personal use Of union funds, and court indictments against other high officers of the union.
 Boiled down, the attitude of AFL-CIO President Meany and other chiefs of the big labor com 'bine seems to be this: either the teamsters rid themselves Of Beck and other leaders whose actions have been criticized, or the union is going to be kicked out of the federation.
 That has been the rule for the smaller AFL-CIO affiliates facing similar charges. And Meany said recently the rule will be the same for all.

Cost of COvernm't Out of Line,' Says
 Edgar Eisenhower

WASHINGTON, R-President Eisenhower said today that ever since he was five years old his brother Edgar has been criticizing him.
 He gave that reply--with a broad smile-when asked at his news conference about criticism of his budget voiced by Edgar Eisenhower, an attorney whose home is in Tacoma, Wash.
 A reporter told the President Edgar Eisenhower had said he thought. perhaps Milton Eisen- hover, another brother, and Sher- man Adams, White House chief of staff, were exerting undue '1iber- al'' influence on the President.
 Edgar Eisenhower had said that while he does not "see eye to eye'' with Sherman Adams, he is not concerned about the White House influence of Adams and automo- bile magnate Paul c. Hoffman.
 In today's interview Edgar Ei- senhower was asked about his views on federal aid to education, a field in which the President is asking for US. money to build classrooms.
 Personally I don't think there is any power in the federal gov- ernment to grant aid to the schools" Edgar Eisenhower re- piled. 1T think the states have the ability to look after themselves. I think it is a state problem"
 In yesterdays interview, Edgar Eisenhower said he can't under stand why the administration $ ,budget-$71.8 billion-is so big.
 T certainly feel the cost of gov ernment is getting way out of line," Edgar said. Everybody IS asking for economy in govern ment because it is taking a large portion of our income as it is, and I'm very conscious of that"

20. BACK ON 

WASHINGTON, RAPresident Eisenhower said today Postmaster General Summerfield acted with his complete approval in curtail- ing mail service last week.
 Summerfield ordered most post offices closed and mail delivery stopped last Saturday because Congress had not acted on his re- quest for $47 million to carry his department during the remaining 212 months of the bookkeeping year.
 Last night Summerfield called off most of the cutbacks. He acted within minutes after Eisenhower had signed a bill, sent to him by Congress late yesterday, giving the Post Office $41 million.
 Eisenhower was asked at his news conference if Summerfield's $ cutbacks were ordered to drama tize administration opposition to congressional budget cuts and whether he approved his Cabinet members position.
 Eisenhower said it was clear Summerfield didn't have the money to carry on.
 Summerfield said last night that within 24 hours mail service will be back to nearly the same basis" as before his April 5 re- trenchment order.
 That means post office windows will be open as usual next Satur- day, April 2O
 Summerfield noted that Congress gave him $6 million less. than he had asked for. Hence, he said, his department lis still faced with a difficult job to maintain service within the funds available for the balance of this fiscal year."
 He therefore directed continued limitation of downtown business area mail deliveries, a limit ot 815 hours window service, and postponement of a $3 million pur- chase of postal supply items.

 Hopes to Solve SueZ Problem
By Marvin L. Arrowsmith

WASHINGTON, lR-President Eisenhower said today the United States still has some hope of solv- ing the Suez Canal problem with out resort to the JUN. Security Council.
 The President told news con- ference it is not necessarily so that this country already has de- cided to put the disagreement with Egypt before the Council.
 The United States, Eisenhower added, has not completely given up hope for an equitable solution.
 (At JUN. headquarters Western diplomatic quarters said today they are encouraged at private negotiations over Suez, and the Western powers have decided not to bring the issue before the Se- curity Council this week.)
 On related matter, Eisenhow- CT said the US. still regards both the Gulf of Aqaba and the Suez Canal as international waterways available to ships of all countries.
 He was asked how long the US. plans to continue asking Ameri- can ships to refrain from use of | the canal. Eisenhower said he does not believe we have made any such request. Then he went on to say it is up to each firm to decide for itself.
 The shipping companies have been told to be prudent, however, Eisenhower said.
