The National Association for

In a hearing on its charges
AGAINST the Washington Police
Department Wednesday, Eu-
gene Davidson, NAACP District
president. said today.
In a letter advising the Com
missioners I'VE are reluctant to
become party to such pro-
ceedings." Mr. Davidson listed
these objections:
The scope of the hearing
would be restricted to two of
the six NAACP charges. but not
those alleging police brutality
While the Commissioners
state the proceedings would not
be trial but an "investiga-
ton" the rules outlined include
most elements of a formal
hearing.
Last Minute Request" Hit
The Commissioners letter re-
questlng submission by this
morning by the NAACP of any
additional specifications in sup
port of it's charges was re-
ceiveo at APO pm. Friday.
This. Mr.. Davidson wrote,
gave the Office about an hour
and a half of regular work
time to comply, and he added:
The physical imposSibility of
compliance seems obvious and
such a last minute request
could be considered deliberate"
The local NAACP head told
a reporter that the organiza-
ton would not be represented
at the hearing as presently
set up.
Notes Summary in Letter
Mr.. Davidson noted that the
letter received Friday after
noon from Commissioner Rob-
ert E. Mclaughlin said the
hearing would receive evidence
on NAACP specifications sum-
married. as follows:
That Police Chief Robert v.
Murray. by his silence, has con-
doned an insult to a civic or
eanization seeking to CO.
operate with his department in
the matter of eliminating in
Justice.
That racial prejudice has
prevented the promotion of
Negro policemen and that as
signmcnts of policemen to duty
are made on the basis of race /
with detrimental effect on po-
lice efficiency.
Mr.. Davidson has said pre-
yiously that he does not con-
slider the Commissioners i'm
partial and wanted the in
vestigation to be made BY the
Senate District Committee.
Sees Confession
He said in his letter that the
view that Commissioners could
not hold an impartial hearTe
on the matter was "strength-
ened by the confession Of
partially which was inherent
in the referral of the matter to
the Department Of Justice :
The Justice Department has
agreed to inveStigate-NAACP
charges of police brutality but
said it had no authority TO

Mr.. Davidson told the city

Statement
BY J. A. O'LEARY

Senate Democratic Leader
johnson today accused Vice
President Nixon of joining in
a concerted propaganda cam
paign" against the Senate'S
moderate version of the civil
rights bill.
Asked why he singled out the
Vice President, Senator John
son indicated it was because Of
the statement Mr.. Nixon made
the night the Senate adopted
the jury trial amendment. After
that vote Mr.. Nixon called it q
sad day in the history of the
Senate.
Senator Johnson said it was
rather rare for Vice President
Ito start lecturing the Senate"
particularly when he was pres
ent for little of the discussion.
The Texas Senator said no
one has demonstrated how
trial by jury would keep anyone
from voting.
Cites Limitations
Asked about reports that the
House and Senate might COM
promise by limiting the jury
trial amendment to cases in
volving voting rights, Senator
johnson said he thought some
research would show the
amendment is not nearly as
broad as it has been pictured.
Although it would apply to
criminal contempt cases grow
ing out Of any law under which
the Federal Government uses
lnjunctions. Senator johnson
said there are not many GRIM
NAL contempt cases that arise
under the other laws.
Administration supporters
have estimated that at least "a
other laws, including those al
fecting labor. would be covered
by the Senate jury trial amend
ment.
O'MahOney Sees Forward Step
Senator O'Mahoney, Demo-
crat of Wyoming, a co-author
of the jury trial amendment,
said today that unless it is
ruthlesSly sabotaged by purely
partisan stupidity" the Senate
bill will be speedily accepted
by the House and by the White
House.
In its present form it is
the greatest forward step in
racial relations that has be-
come possible of achievement
since the Emancipation Proc
lamation,' Senator O'Mahoney
continued. 1T is acceptable to
the South because it no longer
carries any punitive overtones."
The Senate will put aside the
civil rights bill today to dispose
of other routine business. but
expects to start the final
round of Speechmaking tomor-
row and pass the bill by We'd
neSday or Thursday.
Veto Opinion Divided
Republicans appear to be di-
vided over whether President
Eisenhower would sign or veto
the bill if it were to reach his
desk in its present form.
Although influential Demo-
Gratis would like to see the
House concur in the Senate bill
and send it directly to the
White House. it seems more
likely that the Republicans will
succeed in having it sent to a
Joint conference committee for
adjustment of differences be-
tween the two Houses.
If the bill goes to conference
it might not reach President
Eisenhower until early next
year. House Republican Leader
Martin of Massachusetts, made
such a prediction Saturday. He
estimated it would take con-
fereeS at least two months to
work out a satisfactory bill, and
said Congress might as we'll put
off final action until it returns
in January.
But the Democrats. who con-
troll Congress. probably will do
all they can to clean up the
subject now, rather than nave

DAMASCUS, Syria, Aug. S
CP).-A pro- socialist Damascus
newspaper said today in a dis
patch from Moscow that Soviet
Communist Party Boss Nikita
Khrushchev has guaranteed
Syrian security.
The dispatch to the daily
Alrain Alan quoted Mr.. Khru-
shchev as telling a Syrian gov
eminent delegation you can
be sure Syria's security is guar
anteed. The Soviet Union will
not allow or tolerate any ag-
erosion against Syria"
The Russian leader made the
statement when the delega-
ton headed by Acting Syrian
Defense Minister Khaled Ell
Ann referred to Israel and
colonialist anti-Syrian agrees
sive intentions" Assistant Chief
Editor Jubran Korya wrote.
Mr.. Korya said Soviet Pre-
mier Bulganin and Defense
Minister Marshal Georgi Zhu-
kov were present when Mr..
KhruShchev gave the assur-
ance at a recent Kremlin
meeting.
Arms Being Supplied
An earlier announcement said
the Syrian delegation was in
Moscow to discuss Syria's eco
nomlc problems. Before the
group began its trip. reports
in Cairo said it was seeking
additional arms from Czecho-
slovakia and Russia.
Communist nations have
been supplying military equip
ment and advisers to Syria
since shortly after Egypt closed
an arms deal With Russia in
1855.
The report OF Soviet support
with specific reference to Israel
came as the Syrian press kept
up its attacks on Jordan. and
Jordan searched all Syrians
crossing the 220-mile border
between the two countries.
Ironically, Jordanian officials
! less than month ago guar
anteed their support of Syria if
Israel attacked the Syrians.

WASHINGTON = When
the Israel Army knocked out
Soviet-armed Egyptian forces
last November, a powerful
blow was inflicted on anti
Semitism. Israels soldiers
won the respect of leading
us. Army officers and of
military men throughout the
world.
The concept of the timid
Jew fleeing the bully was de-
stroyed in many minds. Isra-
els forces sought out and
closed with the enemy. Tao
tics of the campaign are be-
ing cited by US. officers as
superior in some respects to
US. methods.
NO LESS an authority
than the chief US. military
historian of the European
Theater of Operations in
World War II has made a
special study of the Sinai
campaign. He is Gen. S.L.A.
Marshall, who wrote in the
magazine ARMY" that Isra-
els performance was such
that "the United States Army
/. has not assured itself
such sustained velocity"
Gen. Marshall said the
campaign was won sin a
whirl of such incredibly
small forces that it is a mira
Gle they were not beaten by
space alone" He said "They
did it on nerve more than
with fire and deception
they proved worthy of any
company. When things went
worst, they looked their bold

IN GEN. Marshall's view,
the Sinai campaign is regard
ed as a masterpiece of mo-
bility. Statistics alone sup
mort that view. "But," said
