COP. Revolt
Seen by AIcorn
School Aid. Budget
Stir Ire of Stotes
BY GENE GOODWIN
Star stan Correspondent

TRENTON. N. j.. May 25.-A
rebellion among State Repub-
lican leaders against President
Eisenhower's program Of Federal
aid to education was indicated
here today by National Repub-
lican Chairman Meade Alcorn.
The national chairman also
reported opposition among State
leaders to the size Of the Presi-
dents $7l.8 billion budget and
to foreign economic aid.
Mr.. Acorn summed UP for re-
|porters the preliminary findings
|of six regional conferences he
and other national party leaders
have had with State Republican
oficials from all States except
South Carolina.
Final Report Due
He said he viii deliver the ANAL
reports from all six conferences
to President Eisenhower June 8.
The final conference. including
Maryland. Delaware, Pennsyl-
vania. New Jersey. New York and
the District Of Columbia. wound
up here today.
"In all but one Of the regional
conferences. there Was a strong
feeling against Federal aid to
education." the national chair
man said. He identified the New
England region as the only one
indorsing the Presidents pro-
posal for aiding States in class
room construction.
The feeling seemed to be that
the Federal Government should
not be in the business Of aid to
education" Mr.. Alcorn said.
He emphasized later that this
opposition did not include Fed
|eral aid to areas where schools
are overcrowded because of some
Federal installation or project
the so-called Federally Impacted
areas.
Adams Cites Platform
Only last night, Sherman
Adams, assistant to President
Eisenhower. reminded this mid
Atlantic conference that the Re-
publican platform adopted at
San Francisco nine months ago
contained q strong Federal-aid-
to-education plank.
One State party leader here
said he feels the regional con-
ferences more truly reflect rank
and-file Republican opinion than
the national platform. He said
the White House and national
party leaders exerted a great in
fiuence on the drafting OF the
platform. whereas the opinion
expressed at the conferences was
from the bottom up.
Mr.. Alcorn emphasized that
the opposition TO Federal aid to

PORT AU PRINCE. Haiti, May
Is @.-Coast Guard batteries
opened fire on this capital to-
night in what appeared to be
an attempt to settle Haiti's po-
litical feuds by civil war. Mobs
ranged the streets of the city,

Matin was set afire.
Sporadic small arms fire broke
out from time to time in the
streets as two rival chiefs Of
staff sought to gain control of
the Army-and of Haiti.
Cable Connections Out
(Soon after this dispatch was
sent all cable communication
between Haiti and New York
was cut.
Gan attendant at the radio

Haiti that could be reached by

$lOO,OUO In cash since 1858 when
the omnibus crime bill provided
that property used in gambling
shall be forfeited to the District
by court order.
Enforcement of the law has
been blocked by confusion over
who is supposed to enforce it.
Atlas Case Provides Test
A decision to end the confusion
with a test case came last week
almost three years after the
then United States Attorney Leo
A. Rover. now chief Judge of
Municipal Court Of Appeals, pro-
posed to the Corporation Counsel
that the question be carried to
the United States Court Of APP
peals. Mr.. Rover proposed that
an adverse decision in the appel
ate court would be the basis for
going to Congress.
Chosen for the test Is the
money seized in the Atlas Club
case.
Raiders reported seizing ST.
e5l.85 on a gambling table in
the after-hours club at l349 E
street NV. when police made
their raid on February II, 1855.
Another $949 was taken from
one Of the defendants, William
Quinn. who later pleaded guilty
to setting up a gaming table.
Police said more was actually
taken from Mr.. Quinn but this
was marked money which police
are allowed to recover.
Assistant Corporation Counsel
Clark King filed what are TECH
nically known as libel actions
against the $1.851.85 and the
$949 in District Court late Fri
day. This is the first such ac-
ton brought since Judge Mat
thew MCGUIRE dismissed q SINH
lar case on June 81, 1854.

Informed sources on the SEN

prediction that the drive for a
deeper cut in foreign aid has
lost a good bit Of its steam since
Mr.. Eisenhower made his RADIO
