Bus Fare Boost
Planned in East
By The Associated Press


The major intercity passenger
bus companies operating in the
East have notified the Inter-
state Commerce Commission
they propose to further adj
vance their fares by 5 per cent
in eastern territory. effective
August /.
The notice was filed by the
National Bus TRAFFIC Associa-
ton representing all of the
larger carriers. On this pro-
cedafe, the proposed increase
is subject to public protest
prior to the effective date, and
possible blocking action by
ICC.
Bus fares were last generally
increased by 5 per cent in
January of this year. This fol-
lowed a 6 per cent boost made
effective in May. 1856.
The bus association said the
new advance in the East was
designed to correspond with a
similar increase granted on
railroad travel earlier this year.

Morse Attacks
Administration
Home-RuIe Bill
Territorial Form
Government Called
'Phony' at Hearing
BY DON S. WARREN

Senate hearings on home
rule bills for Washington were
opened today with a slashing
attack on the administration
bill proposing a territorial form
Of government for the District.
Senator Morse, Democrat of
Oregon, denounced the bill as
a "phony" and but a facade
of fraud"
He attacked, in particular,
proposals in the administration
bill for the presidential APP
pointment Of a Governor and a
Lieutenant Governor, provisions
for presidential veto of acts of
the legislative assembly and the
failure to provide for an elected
school board.
He was followed by District
Commissioner Robert E. Nc
Laughlin. who said the Board
Of Commissioners favored the
administration bill as best
suited" to the current needs of
both the District and Federal
Governments. He said the
Budget Bureau had found that
this bill was in accord with
the program of the President.
Attacks Comnromisa
Senator Morse told the Ju-
dietary Subcommittee of the
Senate District Committee that
great principles of democracy
and self-government were in
volved and that for himself he
found that the compromise
with principles never achieved
anything worthwhile. He urged
approval of this bill sponsored
this year by himself and Sem
ator Nicely, Democrat Of West
Virginia. chairman of the Sem
ate District Committee, which
provides for an elected mayor,
city council and Board of Edu-
cation, as we'll as a non-voting
District delegate in the House.
The administration bill also
provides for the delegate.

Mallory Case
Priority Urged
EorIy Hearings
On Effects Asked
BY MIRIAM GUTENBERG

Representative Cramer of
Florida. ranking Republican on
the special House Judiciary
subcommittee studying the i'm
pact of recent Supreme Court
decisions. said today he will
urge top priority" considera-
ton Of the Mallory case by the
newly organized subcommittee.
The legislator said he thought
the Mallory case should have
highest priority because OBJ
viously the ends of justice are
hampered to the greatest ex-
tent and the effects are i'm
mediate"
In the Mallory case, the SUI
preme Court reversed the death
penalty rape conviction of An
drew Mallory on the ground he
was held too long between ar
rest and arraignment. The
court barred the confession
Mallory gave police. without
this evidence, the prosecutor
dropped the case and Mallory
walked out of District Jail as
a free man.
Mr.. Cramer said he hoped
the new subcommittee, which
is headed by Representative
Willis. Democrat of Louisiana.
can hold an organization meet
ing tomorrow on the chairman's
return to the city and launch
immediate hearings on the eff
fects of the Mallory case and
the Supreme Court decisions
freeing or ordering new trials
for Communist Party leaders
convicted under the 1910 Smith
Act.
May Push Legislation
Mr.. Cramer said other Judici-
airy Committee members shared
his concern about the Mallory
case. He added that If the
hearings determine that legis-
lative action was the proper
remedy, q push will be made
to get corrective legislation
through before Congress gets
home.
He pointed out that the reso-
luton setting up the special
subcommittee emphasized that
speed was of the essence in
dealing with the practical eff
fects of the decisions.
The legislator said his two
principal concerns with the
Mallory decision were the dan
ger that it lays the foundation
for extending the same prin-
ciple of immediate arraign-
ment to State courts and the
fact that 1t leaves law en-
forcement officers without any
guide as to their procedures
between arrest and arraign-
ment.
The decision jeopardizes the
entire period between arrest and
arraignment." Mr.. Cramer de-
clared. 1T leaves open the whole
question Of voluntary state
ments to police, even those i'm
mediately after arrest.

Senate Democratic Leader
johnson Of Texas appealed to
the Senate today to conduct the
impending battle over civil
rights without "invective or
vindictiveness."
AS the Senate prepared to
begin the long debate this
afternoon, the Dem ocratic
leader also predicted some
amendments will be adopted
to the House bill.
But he FASTENED to explain
he had no specific changes in
mind and had not been back
from Texas long enough to
know whether any compromises
are being discussed.
The Texas Senator said he
meant only that it would be
unusual on a bill of this i'm
portance if no amendments
were made.

"All Of us realize, regardless
of Olir views on the subject.
that it is a very important one,
affecting the interests of every

Doctors Aiding
Abortion Ring,
|Hdssan Says
Also Links Nurses
And Druggists to
Arlington Case
BY SAM EASTMAN

Arlington law enforcement
officials charged today that
doctors, nurses, druggists and
laboratory technicians were
providing business for q mil
lion-dollar-a-year alleged abor-
ton ring now under investiga-
ton.
To date, five persons have
been arrested as principals in
the alleged mill.
Today. Commemorative At
torney William j. HasSan re-
vealed that names Of pregnant
women were being fed to an
abortion mill by professional
men and women on down to
laborers."
Asked to specify, Mr.. Hassan
said that Eastern Seaboard
medical men together with
nurses, druggists. laboratory
technicians, mattresses, cab
drivers" and others are in
volved.
The investigation was in
itiated by Vice Squad Detec-
tives Leonard j. Burnett and
B. G. Cox several weeks before
the five were arrested.
500 to Be Quizzed
At this time, Mr.. Hassan
said, it appears that more than
500 persons will be interviewed
in the case before the grand
jury reconvenes on Septem-
Der 8.
These 500, he said, include
women who underwent the IL
legal operation, those who "ar-
ranged or rendered services
during or after the abortion, :"
persons who furnished supplies
and places for the operations,
and go-betweens. b
Mr.. Hassan also revealed
that:
/. The alleged ring took in
a gross of SIS million during
the past 10 months.
2. AS a result Of this inveS-
tigation, leads are being fur
nished to officials in nearby
Jurisdictions of abortions being
performed in their areas.
8. The alleged Arlington abor-
ton mill was a butcher shop"
with little emphasis on basic
sterilization safeguards.

Asked what other jurisdic-
tons are involved, Mr.. Hassan
said several States and the
District"
Questioned as to whether the
Arlington investigation will re-
suit in further arrests in other
areas. Mr.. Hassan said he
would prefer that this would
come directly from those off,
Gals. He declined to comment
on the possibility of more ar
rests in Arlington.
Mr.. Hassan explained that in
vestigators were concentrating
on an l8-month period because
there is a two-year statute Of
limitations which will have
elapsed by the time the grand
